When There Is Nothing Left But Love

“Where do you both intend to go?”

Spencer asked courteously as he smiled at us. Looking at his unusual demeanor under such circumstances, my heart skipped a beat.

Nora and I grabbed hold of each other and looked at Spencer persuasively. “We have to leave this place. Spencer, please let us go!” I pleaded with him.

It was as if Spencer totally did not catch what I said. At the sight of Armond, who was lying on the floor in disheveled clothes, he shot me an indifferent glance and instructed the bodyguards, “Go check on Mr. Murphy!”

Two of the bodyguards moved toward Armond swiftly and took some time to check on him before they carried him away cautiously. Meanwhile, I was locked up in the room again with Nora.

After a while, she finally broke the silence. “I’ve known right from the beginning that Armond has never fallen for me, and I’m just a nobody to him. Yet, I choose to lie to myself all this while. I thought that if I follow him wherever he went and clung to him with perseverance, he would be able to notice me one day. To be frank, he actually treats

Letting out a deep breath, I patted her gently and said softly, “Nora, I might not have the right to give you advice, as I myself can’t handle my relationship well too.

As for Armond, I’m sorry that I’m unable to put myself in his shoes, just like how you are doing. We’re definitely in a different stance as he’s my foe.

To me, he’s really a cold-blooded murderer in a way. Furthermore, countless children in the villages have perished in his hands miserably. It’s really unfair for them! Nora, I’ve witnessed all these with my own eyes. You must really think properly and make the right decision. I’m sure that you really love
