Chapter 472
Feeling guilty?
I saw it with my own eyes.
How could there be any misunderstanding?
Vivian Bennett felt a tightness in her chest.
She turned her face away, refusing to look at him.
Perhaps in his eyes, a kiss meant nothing.
A man like him was used to women throwing themselves at him.
But she was different.
From the moment she fell for him, she could no longer tolerate any ambiguity.
The jealousy is strong.
Liam Sullivan turned her face back toward him.
His fingertips gently brushed the corner of her eye.
You ran away so fast.
Did you not hear someone fall into the water?
Fall into the water?
Vivian was stunned for a moment.
Then she glared at him.
Don't try to fool me.
We must clear this up today.
I was on a phone call in the garden.
I didn't notice that drunk blonde woman lunging at me.
His tone was aggrieved, but his eyes were serious.
Her makeup was terrifyingly thick.
Her perfume gave me a headache.
How could I possibly be interested in that taste?
I directly picked her up and threw her into the pool.
He gave a helpless smile.
Who knew you would appear right at that moment?
And you only saw half of it before running away.
Vivian pressed her lips together.
Was it really such a coincidence?
If you don't believe me, go ask the guests from that night.
I'm not afraid of a confrontation.
His gaze was frank.
Hmph, of course I will ask.
The stone stuck her heart loosened slightly.
Such matters were easy to verify.
He had no reason to lie.
Liam Sullivan pulled her into his arms.
His fingertips gently caressed her pale face, still weak from illness.
Can you forgive this fool now?
So it was all a misunderstanding.
Yet it caused them both such torment and heartache.
Fortunately, they finally tore down their disguises.
They laid their true feelings bare under the sunlight.
Vivian lifted her head.
Tears glistened in her eyes.
The scars of the past still ached.
Like a thorn embedded deep in her heart.
Her voice trembled lightly.
Liam Sullivan, the way you treated me back then...
Trampling on my dignity.
I said I would never forgive you.
Liam's face instantly turned pale.
His heart felt as if it were being squeezed tightly.
He knew his sins were unforgivable.
Back then, he was blinded by hatred.
He thought her escape was because she didn't love him.
So he retaliated in the cruelest way possible.
He regretted it immensely, but there was no excuse.
So... you still won't forgive me?
His voice was hoarse, filled with despair.
I shouldn't forgive you.
Her tear-filled eyes gazed at him.
Just like I shouldn't have fallen in love with you.
If I could control my heart, I wouldn't be in such pain.
Liam shuddered.
A sudden light ignited in his eyes.
You...
I love you.
She finally spoke the words buried deep in her heart.
