It felt like her problems were just getting worse, and despite her best efforts, Ethan refused to give her a second look or show any concern for her predicament.

Days passed and he had driven in and out of his mansion, ignoring her as if she was non-existent.

Sadly, she had made the decision to spend days sitting down next to the garbage cans outside Ethan's house. Even when she had the opportunity to go back to her own house, she refused to move and made up her mind to stay unless Ethan accepted her back into his life.

    Hazel's POV* * *My head started pounding like crazy as all those memories from 23 years ago flashed before my eyes. It felt like I was reliving everything all over again, and the intensity of those flashbacks was messing with my emotions.I instinctively rubbed my temples, but that didn't ease the pain. It was like my hands had a mind of their own, reaching for my face. I touched my lips, ran my fingers across my cheeks, as if I was trying to remind myself of my physical presence. With a strong urge to tear my skins off, I had an inner battle with myself.My face was fake, everything about me was fake. I had changed myself so much that I was beginning to forget who I truly was.Years back, Aria's father provided me with shelter, and I was advised to undergo a life-changing surgery that would change even the most basic aspects of my physical appearance, such as the color of my hair.Technology was surely a big thing in this advanced world.

She was starting to feel overwhelmed by her revelation.Hazel looked back at Abigail with a mixture of sadness and determination in her eyes. She understood that this was hard for Abigail to process, but she knew she couldn’t back down now. Taking a deep breath, Hazel tried to find the right words to explain."Abigail,

It was obvious that his impatience was increasing with every passing second."Ye…Yes...Sir" The receiver said nervously , his voice breaking due to nervousness, he waited patiently for any other information that his boss had to say to him.Ethan hung up the phone, clenching his teeth in fury, his brow furrowed upon remembering that there was no progress in his search.A man stood at attention in the room, his hands intertwined behind his back.

The glow from the cigarette was the only thing illuminating the car's dark interior.A wide smile spread across his lips as he gazed intently at the scene unfolding before him. "Time to be the hero" He let out a loud laugh, his car was soundproofed and so he didn't have to worry about anyone hearing him.Straight ahead of Ethan's car, a vibrant red Audi R8 stood out like a gleaming trophy, its sleek and agile frame accentuated by the eye-catching taxi billboard adorning its roof. Luckily, Ethan's windows were tinted black and so they couldn't see him. However, he could see everything that was going on outside, including the way Asher took a dramatic step out of his car and then turned around the car to open the door for Abigail.He saw her shake her head reluctantly, as if scared of stepping outside of the car.Ethan's lips curled into a mischievous grin, an

"He is dead?" I asked in a whisper even though I knew the answer. Henry pulled me closer and placed a kiss on my forehead. I saw them wrap Ethan up into a black big plastic bag and I confirmed it to be true. What other evidence do I need? Ethan was dead and I would never see him anymore. He died because he was trying to save me, how can I ever forget that? I sniffed back my tears and stared at the street filled with reporters. "Henry Brundeen!" Grandfather Brundeen called with a snort and my gaze traveled to look at him. The rest of the Brundeen family followed him, their eyes swollen. "Your beloved cousin is dead and you care to comfort the woman who had gotten him killed in the first place." Grandfather Brundeen's words were like a knife and they pierced through my heart.

What was making me feel that way? I had zero idea.My reflection in the mirror made me almost puke and I stared away.
