Those words were never sent by her, yet Qiao Anhao felt her heart stop in panic.

She spaced out for about ten whole minutes, before she snapped back to her senses and the emotions inside her instantly grew violent.

There was a gentle warm breeze in the room, yet she felt a cold run through her body. She shifted for a moment to shake off the stiff posture that she’d held for so long, and felt the pain in a certain part of her heart. The pain felt as uncontrollable as the rolling waves of a river.

No wonder he treated her like that when they met again after four months apart.

No wonder he acted as though it had nothing to do with him when she told him that she was in the hospital, rather than ignoring him.

No wonder he sent her on her way when she thought they had reconciled after drugging him and crawling into his bed.

No wonder he was so distant at the airport when she hugged him and confessed her love.
