Chapter 183: The ugly truth

Lilian froze for a moment.

Ever since that day at the hospital—when the psychologist refused to continue seeing her and indirectly revealed that Alexander had instructed him not to contact him regarding her anymore—she had understood something clearly.

Alexander no longer wanted to see her.

After realizing her emotional breakdowns were no longer effective, she had no choice but to pretend her condition was stabilizing while quietly waiting for another opportunity.

But now—

Alexander had come to see her himself.

Joy instantly swept away her exhaustion.

"I-I’ll come down right now!"

She hurriedly threw off her blanket and rushed toward the mirror.

Her long hair was messy from sleep, and her pale face still carried traces of fatigue.

She wore a thin floral nightdress that fell above her knees, soft and delicate.

After hesitating briefly, she quickly applied lipstick, grabbed a jacket, and rushed downstairs with her keys.

The underground garage was silent except for the sound of hurried footsteps.

"Alexander!"

Her voice echoed lightly through the empty space.

Alexander stepped out of the car and closed the door behind him.

The dim lighting blurred the sharpness of his features, making his expression difficult to read.

Lilian walked toward him quickly, her eyes bright with barely concealed happiness.

"Why didn’t you come upstairs?" she asked softly.

Then, biting her lip slightly, she added,

"I thought... you didn’t want to see me anymore."

As she drew closer, the smell of alcohol reached her.

"You’ve been drinking?" she asked worriedly. "Do you want to come upstairs? I’ll make you some hot water—"

"No need."

Alexander interrupted calmly.

His indifferent tone instantly stiffened her smile.

"The reason I came tonight is because there’s something I need to tell you."

The atmosphere in the garage suddenly turned cold.

Lilian’s fingers unconsciously tightened around her jacket.

"What is it?"

Alexander leaned lazily against the car door, his gaze fixed on her.

"Pack your things."

"I’ll arrange for you to leave the country."

"Don’t come back again."

For a second, Lilian thought she had misheard him.

Her eyes widened.

"...What?"

"I’ll send you abroad," Alexander repeated calmly. "You won’t need to come back."

"No."

Lilian shook her head violently and immediately grabbed his sleeve.

"No, Alexander... I don’t want to leave!"

"You don’t understand what these past few years have been like for me!"

Her voice trembled uncontrollably.

"Every night I wake up from nightmares. I can’t sleep. I’m terrified all the time..."

Tears quickly filled her eyes.

"Only when you’re around do I feel safe."

"I can’t live without you."

"So please... don’t send me away."

Alexander slowly pulled his sleeve from her grasp.

His movements were cold and detached.

"If that’s true," he said quietly, "then why did you insist on breaking up with me back then?"

Lilian froze.

"I..."

"You said you left because you felt unworthy after what happened."

Alexander’s gaze darkened slightly.

"But was that really the truth?"

Lilian’s breathing faltered.

Alexander stared at her steadily.

"You said everything happened after you left my place that night."

"But the location where you were taken..."

His voice became colder.

"...was nowhere near my apartment."

Lilian’s pupils shrank instantly.

Alexander continued calmly,

"You disappeared almost an hour later, in a completely different area."

"So tell me, Lilian."

"Who were you meeting that night?"

Silence.

Lilian’s face turned pale.

Alexander watched her reaction quietly.
