Chapter 500 You’re Loved
Ziana slapped herself on the forehead hard.
How could she be so foolish!
“You’re absolutely right,” she muttered with a heavy heart.
Seeing her sudden realization, Boris chuckled softly. “Do you believe me now?”
Ziana nodded solemnly.
Indeed, whenever it involved Boris, her mind turned into mush.
It had been many days since Ziana last saw Boris, and when Ziana finally met him, she didn’t think much of it, especially after finding out that Boris had been in contact with Mr. Collins.
The kidnapping case five years ago had been a life-changing event for her. She wished she could tear Mr. Collins apart, limb by limb. At that moment, she lost her rationality.
Unexpectedly, as she followed that fake Boris into the private room, she heard shocking revelations that instantly
overwhelmed her emotions.
It was only after watching Boris’ footage that she regained her composure.
Now, upon careful reflection… there were flaws everywhere in tonight’s incident at the Elegant Poetry Hotel.
That Boris had never laid a hand on her before.
At the time, she thought Boris still had some feelings for her. But now, thinking back, when had Boris ever acted so timidly?
As a proud and domineering man, he was used to being assertive and arrogant. Even when he was wrong, he would stand his ground with confidence.
His favorite thing to do was to subdue Ziana with force, using his physical advantage to tame Ziana before reasoning
with her.
But tonight, that fake Boris even leaned against the table and circled around her!
“Smack!”
She slapped herself on the forehead again and complained, “I’m such a fool in love!”
“Enough.” Boris grabbed her hand. “Your concern has made you confused, but there’s nothing wrong with being in
love.”
She acted quickly and slapped her forehead twice more. Boris couldn’t help but find it amusing and exasperating.
Boris brought her hand to his lips and kissed it. “Love me, and I swear I’ll never let you lose.”
Ziana looked into his deep, dark eyes and pursed her lips.
she pulled her hand away. “I’m leaving.”
“No, you’re not.” Boris asserted dominantly, holding her tightly. “You came to my place in the middle of the night, scolded me, and now that I haven’t figured anything out, you want to leave? That’s not how it works. Tell me, what really happened tonight at the Elegant Poetry Hotel? What did the fake Boris say to you?”
Ziana pressed her lips together and remained silent.
Get Bonus
Boris grew irritated by her behavior. Boris gripped her face with his large hand, forcing her to face him. “Ziana, I’m asking you a question.”
“It’s none of your business. We’ve already broken up,” she deflected. “Do I need to remind you? Wasn’t it me who dumped you?”
Boris laughed, “Do you really think I’m a fool? Ziana, unlike you, when it comes to matters of the heart, my intelligence doesn’t disappear. On the contrary, I become even more clear-headed and calm than usual. When you came rushing over today, crying and asking if I ever loved you, I just knew that you still love me.”
“Don’t flatter yourself.” Ziana insisted stubbornly. “Boris, don’t fool yourself.”
Boris locked his eagle-like gaze on her, his eyes shining with sharpness and depth. “What is your purpose in getting close to Edison?”
Ziana’s heart was suddenly struck Little did she know that what would leave her even more astonished was yet to
come.
“Let me take a guess,” he whispered, his palm resting behind her slender waist, gently rubbing back and forth with his fingertips. “Is it to break the curse that’s been placed upon you?”
Ziana couldn’t help but be taken aback.
Was her acting that bad?
As if he could hear her thoughts, Boris said, “It’s not your acting; you really had me fooled. Until tonight, you had convinced me you were cruel because of the curse. But you just cried asking if I loved you, so clearly you were pretending.”
”1..”
“If you were cursed, you would only care about Edison, and you wouldn’t care if I loved you.” Boris refused to let her deny it. “Did you hide this from me thinking I wouldn’t agree with your plan?”
Though it seemed like an ordinary statement, it was actually a bait deliberately thrown by him.
Compared to Boris, Ziana was completely outmatched in shrewdness.
Ziana had no defenses against Boris, and unsurprisingly, she took the bait. “Isn’t that right? Five years ago, on that little island, you lost your eyes protecting me. Over a year ago, because of the Lewis family’s threats, you were entangled in their affairs, forcing me to divorce you. You always make decisions on my behalf, thinking it’s what’s best for me!”
