The Love that Never Really Dies

Roxanne closed in on him. Seeing how cold and indifferent he was toward her, a wave of emotions stirred up within her. Like a crumbling river bank, she could collapse any moment.

“Sebastian, look me in the eyes and tell me the truth.”

“Let go of me. Are you crazy? Why did you come here all the way and make such an awful scene in the middle of the night?”

Enraged, Sebastian swung her arm away and went upstairs.

At that moment, Roxanne knew that her last hope was shattered.

Roxanne was up in arms over Sebastian’s attitude. She dashed toward him.

Sebastian stopped in his tracks and started losing his senses.

“You…”

“It’s okay to fail the first time. We can try it again. Come over here, Sebastian, let us forget those unhappy incidents. Be good… Come…”
