Trapped By The Cold-Hearted Billionaire
âI don't want any trouble, Easton.â She breathed.
But he only stepped closer, running his fingers on her cheeks slowly as a smirk stretched the side of his mouth,
âWell, that's too damn bad because I want to see you in trouble. I want to see you in pain until you're nothing but a shell in a body.â
Tears rolled down her cheeks as she held back a sob, her throat was dry as she asked the question that was burning in her chest,
âDo you hate me that much?â
Seeing her tears made something in him shift but he quickly recovered. He took a few steps back and tucked his hands in his pockets before finding her gaze again,
âThat would make me too kind. What I feel for you isn't hate, Scarlet. It's deeper than that, but most importantly, I want to make you pay for ruining my life and taking my brother from me.â
âŠâŠâŠ..
They say opposites attract, and for them, it was love at first sight. But love wasnât enough to keep them together when fate tore them apart.
She left him, convinced it was the only way to protect him. He believed she abandoned him out of cold-heartedness, and love for money. Blaming her for his brotherâs tragic accident.
For five long years, heâs harbored a fierce bitterness, a desire for revenge so intense itâs reshaped him, hardening his heart to ice.
Now sheâs backâstronger, wiser, but still haunted by the shadows of their past. And heâs waiting, ready to make her pay for what he believes she stole from him. She takes his anger, thinking itâs because she left, unaware of the deeper wound that fuels his wrath.
But what happens when the truth finally comes out?
