Aella hadn’t even finished when Tyrone suddenly shouted, “I still have feelings for you!”
She let out a small laugh.

She looked at Tyrone seriously. “If you’d said anything else, maybe I’d believe you. But having feelings for me? I don’t believe it.”
Her cold stare followed him as he stumbled backward, unsteady on his feet. “When I was one, I was here. On my birthday, I picked you to play with.”
She paused before adding, “And 26 years later, I’m still here telling you–we’re done!”
Their eyes met for a brief moment before Aella turned away, swift and resolute.
The
way she walked away hit Tyrone hard–every nerve in his body burned.
He lost control, pulled her back, and wrapped his arms around her.
When he spoke again, his voice trembled.
“Aella, please … just say you’re angry, that you can’t forgive me yet. You still love me, don’t you?”
Aella stopped resisting. Her tone was soft but distant. “Tyrone, did you forget what you
“You told me my love or hate didn’t matter to you.”
Then, she walked out of the Reid Estate.
said?
The words she left behind wrapped around Tyrone’s heart like vines, squeezing tighter and tighter.
He stood there, glancing around the living room. Every memory with the Reids flashed through his mind.
He’d never known that kind of warmth in his home.
Moonlight spilled through the wide windows, glinting in his tear–filled eyes.
He knew everything that happened between them was his fault.
They’d grown up together. She was his wife.
No matter what it took, he would make her come back to him willingly.

The next morning, at the Reid Residence.
Aella was eating breakfast with her family when Sayer showed up in loungewear and slippers, knocking before walking right in.
She put down her utensils and gave him a look. “Mr. Locke, what brings you here?”
Sayer pointed toward the house next door. “I moved in beside you. We’re neighbors again. Excited?”

Sayer started to think it was a terrible day to join their breakfast.
He tugged on Aella’s sleeve. “Aella, can I just drive instead?”
She shook her head with a grin. “Come on, show some ride–or–die spirit for your friends. I believe in you.”
Sayer had no words.
Aella patted his shoulder with a smile, then went to get ready for work.
By nine, she was at Daniel’s office in the hospital.
When he saw her, Daniel finally looked relieved. “Seeing you like this, I can finally relax.”
She smiled relaxedly. “I told you before—I’ve already moved on.”
He sighed. “Zera looks harmless, but she’s actually pretty vicious.”
At the mention of Zera, Aella pursed her lips.
Zera ended up in prison because of Tyrone. That was karma.
Daniel said, “Mr. Winter is a powerful guy in business. But when it came to Zera, he completely lost it. Leaving you for her? Not worth it at all.”
Aella replied evenly, “Tyrone wasn’t dumb or crazy. He always knew exactly what he was doing.”
Daniel looked confused, so she added calmly, “It’s because I loved him too much. That’s what made him fearless and so sure of himself.”
