chapter 23

Ethan was heartbroken. He drove away from Aria's apartment. The plan was to go straight home but he couldn't do it. His heart was aching and his hands shook mimicking the movements in his heart.

He couldn't believe Aria had humiliated him like that. He had gotten her so many expensive and valuable things yet she threw them all away. She thrashed them like they were with nothing.

He throws his eyes to the back seat of his car and the shining materials and pieces of jewelry stare back at him in sadness.

What else could he do?

Whatever had happened between him and Sofia was a minor thing. She didn't have to make such a big deal out of it. He had been doing the worst stuff and she forgave him every time why then should this be different?

Did she not love him anymore?

No! —That wasn't possible.
