Chapter 11
When Sebastian learned that Brianna had collapsed after donating blood, a wave of grief crashed over him and he could no longer
hold back the storm inside.
His hand gripped the glass bottle so tightly it almost shattered and without a second thought, he slapped his own face again and again, desperation overtaking him.
His parents, helpless and watching their son unravel before the camera, couldn’t stand to see him suffer any longer.
One of them rushed forward to stop the recording, while the other shouted at the crew to end the live stream.
But Sebastian wasn’t having any of it. With eyes bloodshot and tears welling up, he shoved them aside.
“Don’t you dare touch it! No one is turning off these cameras!”
“This is my fault. I have to confess. I owe her an apology. The world has to see it!!
Ignoring the sting of his swollen face, he dropped to his knees, his voice full of self–loathing and regret.
“Brianna, I know you’re watching this. I deserve to die. I can’t believe I came up with such a disgusting idea just to satisfy myself for a fleeting moment.”
“I’m a monster, Brianna, but I swear,
ar, I love you
I couldn’t stop myself from scoffing.
you. I can’t even picture a life without you in it
Such late regret was as worthless as weeds in the wind
Without me, he probably didn’t even realize how much lighter his heart was and how much easier it all became
Even though I had blocked Eliza, she still found ways to poke at my wounds, using strangers‘ phones to send me messages.
She would brag about the countless times she and Sebastian had been together, whispering about the new positions he’d unlocked that were especially thrilling.
Sometimes, she’d go on about how he’d pushed her to the brink, leaving her unable to leave bed for days while he was completely drained by her
And, as if that wasn’t enough, she’d repeat the cruel things Sebastian had said about me, mocking me as a “dead fish.”
If he had just ended things with me, if he had been open and honest about wanting to move on, I wouldn’t have thought ill of him. I wouldn’t have regretted loving him.
But no, he chose this, this petty, disgusting game, to humiliate and break me.
After six years together, I had been so blind, lost in a love that wasn’t real!!!
Sebastian was still crying theatrically in front of the camera, but I couldn’t stomach watching his pitiful act any longer.!!
I dragged Fiona to the restaurant to enjoy some food, eager to escape the drama.
But Fiona didn’t let a single moment slip by without cursing Sebastian, barely taking a bite.!!
When she told me that Sebastian had cried until he nearly passed out, I found it nothing more than a bore
If I had known things would end this way, I would have spared myself the effort!
Needless to say, his confession only earned him waves of ridicule online.
Even Eliza wasn’t spared and she, too, became the target of mockery
But Eliza wasn’t ashamed. No, she saw an opportunity in it.)
She walked toward Sebastian, a wedding dress in her arms, already a little soiled, but her smile was unwavering as she approached
She kneeled before him with a look of deep affection and said, “Sebastian, since Brianna ran away from the wedding, it’s clear she doesn’t love you. She’s careless and when faced with a small test, she chooses to abort your child. That’s the proof you need.“}
Sebastian, lost in his own ocean of pain, glanced up and saw Eliza. His previous tenderness disappeared in an instant
In a surge of rage, he grabbed her throat and squeezed, choking her mercilessly.
“Shameless woman! It’s your fault! If you hadn’t seduced me, I would have seen the truth sooner!“}
“If I had known Brianna knew the truth, I would have had a hundred chances to make things right. Now, I don’t even know where she
Eliza’s eyes bulged as she gasped for air, but Sebastian refused to let go.X
The live stream was abruptly cut off, the violence too much to bear
Finally, Fiona had a moment to herself and she seized it
She stabbed her steak with a fierce vengeance, her voice dripping with contempt.
“Scumbag! Don’t let me catch sight of him again, or I swear I’ll punch him every time!”
I had convinced myself that as long as I kept out of his sight, Sebastian would never find me.
