A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Louis stared ahead, feeling like the person in front of him was a stranger. It was as if he didn't know Taylor at all. It was the first time that she had been so open about her thoughts and feelings.

"If you had ever thought about my feelings regarding the matter, then we wouldn't have to have this conversation. We can't even be friends now. Do you understand me?" Taylor choked out, her eyes almost in tears.

"I don't care! How many times must I tell you that before you finally believe me?" Louis shouted at Taylor, agitated. He could feel himself losing control.

"And how many times must I tell you that I care? I care about it! What's so hard to understand?" Taylor didn't want to argue with Louis anymore. She felt that it was meaningless because he was so hard-headed.

With a scoff, she turned around and walked towards the children's park. She called Amy and left the place with her daughter in her arms.

There was no way that she would let herself cry in front of him. It would just double her feelings of humiliation. She had had enough of that for one day.

As he watched Taylor walking away, Louis regretted not saying something or chasing after her. He didn't know what else to do. How could he make her understand his good intentions?

He pulled off his tie harshly. He needed to calm down or he might do something else that he would regret.

It was just that he was so desperate.

The look of determination on Taylor's face kept flashing on his mind as Louis drove away. It felt as if all the paths that would have led him to her had been blocked. He was lost, unsure of which road to take.

It took him a long time to get back to a familiar place and environment. He realized that a man should lick his wounds in a safe place, so he forced himself to go back to MK Manor.
