Kayden shrunk his neck and tried his best to be invisible. It would be better if he could turn into an ash and floated away.
Emmett walked two meters away from Elaine and stood still. He said, "Alright, I'm not coming over. Don't get excited. If you have anything to say, just say it. We can talk through everything. Perhaps it's some misunderstanding that makes you mad at me."
Elaine pouted her lips and rolled her eyes, "There is no misunderstanding! I just don't want to keep an ambiguous relationship with you!"
***
"Oh? Why is that?"
"Why? I'm not a fool. Why do I have to have such a weird relationship with you? You already have a fiancée. You can live a happy life with her. Why are you still wasting my time?"
"Wasting your time? Elaine! I treat so well. Don't you have any feelings for me? You should know how much I love you!"
"Alright! Stop mentioning the word “love". It just makes me sick. You don't deserve this word. Maybe there is true love in the world, but it won't be between you and me!"
Emmett was so angry that his heart was trembling. He clenched his teeth and restrained himself from losing temper. He said, "Elaine, are your blind? Is your heart made of stone? From all I have done for you, isn't this love?"
Elaine also felt that she was too harsh. But when she thought of Emmett got engaged to Marina behind her back, she felt that she was like the clown in a stage play.
"If you love me, why did you get engaged to Marina behind my back?"
"That's only an engagement, not a marriage!"
"But engagement is already a proclamation of love to the world! Moreover, you got secretly engaged when I went to Iceland! You're hiding it from me on purpose, aren't you? Didn't you do this because you wanted me to stay by your side and become your little toy? I'm stupid. I actually believe you, a wealthy young master, really love me. I know I'm not worthy of you. Your family has connections, and you're handsome, rich and powerful. We are in different worlds. But these are not the reason that I don't hate you. I hate you that you did this behind my back and you still said you love me. Are you rich guys enjoying this kind of games?"
Emmett was so angry that his entire body trembled. He pointed his finger at Elaine and was silent for a long time.
Perhaps, he was eloquent and quick-witted with his opponents in business.
And now, in front of the woman he deeply cared about, he didn't know what to say.
***
It was an indescribable ... heartache.
After a while, under Elaine's gaze, Emmett sneered coldly, "Toy? You don't even deserve to be my toy. How would I choose nobody to be my toy? You look down on me too much!"
No ... this wasn't what he meant.
However, for some reason, at this moment, he was pissed off by Emmett and said without thinking.
Somehow he said those hurting words.
Elaine's face suddenly tightened. A trace of injury appeared on her young face. The pink color on her cheeks immediately dissipated and was replaced by a layer of pallor.
Seeing that Elaine was hurt, Emmett immediately got softened and regretted it.
Emmett took two steps forward and grabbed Elaine's hand, trying to hug her into his arms. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that ... Elaine, what I mean is..."
"Enough! You don't have to say anything!" Elaine fiercely knocked off Emmett's hand. She staggered and took a step back, her eyes filled with tears.
Emmett's words were like a knife cutting into her heart.
It was as if Emmett stripped off all her clothes and ruthlessly disdained her figure. Elaine was both embarrassed and heartbroken.
"Emmett, don't say anything. I should thank you ... thank you for letting me know. Actually, I was very reluctant to part with you just now. I was fascinated by your masculinity and wanted to stay. Now ... You let me know what I am nothing to you, not even a temporary toy!"
"No ... Listen to me, don't misinterpret me ... I am just..."
"Whatever, I don't want to know right now! I just know that I want to stay away from you! I don't want to see you again!"
Elaine was almost screaming out her last few words.
Tears were dropping fiercely down her cheeks, but she still stubbornly opened her eyes wide, her face full of pain.
Emmett really wanted to slap himself a few times!
Why did he say those words that he didn't mean to this simpleminded girl impulsively?
***
"Emmett, even if we meet in the future, let's pretend that we don't know each other! I won't talk to you anymore! You've already trampled on my dignity and ruthlessly crushed it! I hate you to death!"
Elaine cried out sadly, turned around and ran out.
"Elaine! Elaine!"
Emmett chased out of the villa and looked at Elaine's fleeing figure.
When Elaine started running, her movements were so funny and ridiculous, like a crippled stupid doll...
Emmett's heart was so painful that he couldn't speak.
He squinted his eyes, frowned, and clenched his fists.
"Master Smith! What happened? Why did it become like this in such a short time?"
Kayden ran over and looked at Elaine who ran away in surprise.
Emmett sighed deeply, his face full of irritation. He shook his head and said powerlessly,
"You can drive her ... This is the suburbs. It will take her a long time to find a taxi. I don't want her too tired."
"What's going on? Why did you start quarreling just now? Master Smith, you two are..."
