Kyla said, âIâm sorry. I didnât know what else to do to get you to see me and talk to me, so⦠I could only do this.â
âI probably loved you,â he said indifferently.
She froze while doubt flashed across her eyes. He used the word âprobablyâ and it was strange.
âBut no matter how much I used to love you, I donât have any love, sympathy, nor tenderness for you anymore. So even if you come to my office every day, I wonât give in to your demands just because I feel sorry for you. Itâll only make me feel more disgusted,â said Martin Weiss. He turned around, and those dark eyes looked at Kyla.
Those cold eyes seemed to be a bottomless pit, making it impossible to see what he was thinking. They never revealed any emotion too.
It was as if all the love he ever felt for her had faded away.
âI know I spoke ruthlessly in the hospital and it made you hate 1. Martin Weiss, you can continue to hate me and punish me. Iâll accept it, but I beg you to treat these matters separately. As long âYouâll do anything?â Martin Weiss raised his eyebrows and said nonchalantly, âThen what if I said I want us to act like a real couple and I want you to stay with me for the rest of your life without ever leaving?â
Her drooping hands clenched slightly as she met his icy gaze.
He had said something like that before. His eyes had been full of longing and expectations as though her answer was the most important thing in the world.
When he repeated the same lines now, his eyes were cold and indifferent.
âOkay!â She heard her own voice answer.
However, he sneered. âKyla, do you really think Iâd want you that much again? I only asked to find out how much you despised me back then.â
It could also make him understand how unworthy his love was!
She looked at him, dumbfounded.
He approached her step by step, raised his hand, and caressed her cheek. It was just like how he had caressed her face in the hospital. âYou refused me when I begged you like that, but Amber Mitchell can make you give up the rest of your life.â
She trembled slightly.
His voice continued ringing in her ears. âLoving you is probably the worst thing Iâve ever done. Kyla, youâve misspoken. Iâm rejecting your request not because I hate you for being ruthless but because I donât love you anymore. Similarly, I donât hate you. I just donât have feelings for you anymore. So what you just agreed to doesnât have any appeal to me. I donât want the rest of your life. I donât need you by my side either.â
Her face turned ghastly pale as she looked a little shaky.
âI hurt you too much, so youâ¦â
âNo, itâs just that Iâve forgotten about my feelings for you.â His thin lips parted slightly as he uttered the answer.
She was confused. âWhat do you mean? Forgotten?â
