Its Too Late To Forgive

Henry was shocked to hear what Carson said. He couldn't react at all. He felt sudden pain in his chest as if someone has stabbed him brutally.

His eyes were watery and blood red by now. He turned and walked towards Bella without speaking a single word more to Carson.

After meeting Bella again for so many months, this was the first time when he was actually looking at her carefully. He sat kneeling on the floor near her bed. Henry never thought that a person would change so much after just four years.

The small and exquisite face at the time became a little unrecognizable now, and the dull skin lost its brilliance that used to be there earlier. If one look carefully then one can still find the facial features of the Evans family, but it is no longer the original form.

Puffy eye bags, messy eyebrows, dry lips, rough skin… only four years! Just as Henry was about to touch Bella's lips, the person on the hospital bed moved slightly, turned her head, and the bangs covering her forehead slid down, revealing the scars covered by it.

Henry's eyes were sharp for an instant. He curled his brow and looked at the hideous scar for a long time. He couldn’t help but stretch out his hand to touch that scar. As soon as

he touched the scar on Bella's forehead, the woman on the bed woke up.

She subconsciously avoided his hand in horror!

'How could he be here?

What does he want to do??'

She was still in the illusion that she was at The Wild Hunt club. Henry's showed a different emotion.

'Is she trying to hide from me?'

As if not convinced, Henry stretched out his hand towards Bella again. Bella almost subconsciously picked up the quilt, and suddenly retracted her head into the quilt and moved back as much as she could.

Henry looked at the woman who was shrouded in the quilt, his face was cold and scary. This damn woman is really hiding from me, he thought. He was watching motionlessly at the ball huddled that Bella formed inside the quilt, it was vaguely visible that the quilt was shaking.

After Bella hid in the quilt, she began to regret it. Why did she hide in the quilt? If at all Henry wants to trouble or humiliate her, it will be useless for her to hide in outer space also. What’s the use of hiding in the quilt?

Henry said with a “huh”, and pulled off Bella's quilt with his big hands. His voice was suddenly cold and bitter, his thin lips closed, and he slowly asked,

“Are you trying to hide from me?”

“No!” Bella hurriedly said,

“I did not hide from you Mr. Jackson Sir."

Lie! She is simply hiding from him!

“What’s wrong with your voice? I have been noticing that since we have met again your voice has specifically become hoarse and rough."

“Sick and sore throat sir.”

Bella lowered her eyelids and refused to say more.

“Are you afraid of me?”

Bella's eyelids twitched and no longer refuted. The man stood by her hospital bed and raised his eyebrows slowly, making his heart even more unhappy.

Suddenly leaning forward, Henry put one arm on the mattress under Bella's horrified sight, and suddenly narrowed the distance between the two. With the other hand stretched out towards Bella. Bella retracted subconsciously, and Henry said calmly,

“Don’t move.”

Seeing Bella really behaving well, Henry moved his fingers away from Bella’s bangs, and touched the scar on her forehead. Bella’s entire body was sore and painful hence she couldn't move alot.

Henry touched Bella's scar with his finger, and pressed his lips without leaving a trace. He asked unhappily,

“Where did this scar come from?”

Bella glanced at Henry in front of him… hypocritical! Doesn’t he know where it came from? But she still replied,

“I got hurt sir.”

Thanks to you… She added another sentence in her heart. His finger rubbed the scar, rubbed it again and again, and then it went down more and more, touching her lips. The touch he felt from his fingertips was dry, peeling, and pale.

about all that she said earlier in the booth and now he was more frustrated and angry by what Carson has just said regarding the gang rape. He subconsciously banged his fist on the wall next
