The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 2111

This box was once where she had stored all her jewels, from delicate earrings to magnificent necklaces. When Vicky opened the box, her pupils dilated—a sapphire ring was twinkling at her. It looked delicate and gorgeous.

She couldn't help but reach her hands towards it, and brush the ring with her fingers. Her fingertip was quivering at the touch.

The sapphire was hollow inside. She knew what was inside it.

When Rob gave it to her, she knew that there would come a time when she would have to use it on someone.

Little did she know that the day would arrive this early.

Did she really have to do this?

Vicky suddenly felt a sense of coldness surging into her heart. She looked out of the window—there was not a trace of wind.

The sun was blazing outside with all its warmth, but her heart was icy cold.

Her mind was whirling with the reminders of her undefinable past. The images of the days she had been locked in a dark room, like a beast, came flashing before her eyes. There had been no escape from there. All her activities had been confined to that space.

She had lost track of the time. She didn't know how long she had been there.

One day, the door that had kept her locked inside was suddenly opened from outside. A piercing beam of light bounced into the room. It was only then that Vicky remembered she was still alive.

It took Vicky a long time before she could adapt to the sunlight. She saw her reflection in the mirror for the first time in a very long time. She was looking dirty and unkempt. Vicky wasn't surprised at what she had witnessed, as she had expected to look grotesque. However, when she saw herself again, clean and fully-dressed, she had blacked out.

Just when she thought that her fate had been terrible enough, her beautiful, delicate face, which she had always been proud of, was rotten and disfigured.

When she had woken up again, her entire face had been wrapped with a bandage. She couldn't see a thing. She wanted to cry and scream at the sight of her face, but she had lost control over her body. She would never forget the agonizing pain that was piercing through her.

'Who would understand the pain and suffering of the past?

Can Sheryl possibly understand? No! That bitch doesn't deserve to know about it.

Will Charles understand? No! He is a heartless man, who has long forgotten the Rachel from his past. The day he helped Sheryl bully me, was the day he had forgotten everything about Rachel, ' Vicky thought to herself.

She let out a sarcastic laugh. Vicky ran her fingers over the smooth surface of the sapphire ring, her nail polish reflecting a mystically, charming light.

Her fingers were slender and soft, her lips were rosy and alluring, not to mention her face, which was remarkably beautiful. But why couldn't she win Charles' heart?

She couldn't think of a reason as to why Charles didn't want her.

There was a loud thud. Vicky had suddenly thrown the box away.

The delicate box hit the wall and was shattered into pieces.

Vicky let out a painful howl, her eyes still fixed on the box.

The noise reached Stella's ears, and she listened to it intently.

She understood that Vicky was in pain. Stella had known the cause of her pain, better than anyone else.

"Humph," Stella scoffed.

'This woman is plotting against Mr. Lu. There is no doubt that she's going to lose everything. Let me wait and see what her next move will be.

A woman like her doesn't deserve anyone's sympathy, ' she thought. Stella shook her head and went back to the kitchen.
