Kelly’s POV
My shoulders and hands were trembling. The news on the television kept playing in my mind over and over again. The last smile. The last talk. The last hug. I remember everything that happened before dad made me escape. He smiled at me and said’ he’d wait for me.
The fear of losing someone I love brought my heart back to the darkest pit of misery and I couldn’t accept it.
I lost my dad. He jumped off the window but was it true? Klay planned to kill my baby and he can kill my dad too. Given that he already threatened me to kill my dad if I escape from him and I did. I escaped.
Sobbing, I stared at the man sitting in front of me after I pushed him away and wiped my tears. He’s wearing a bullcap, black jeans and shirt and has a fake beard but I can easily recognize him. The second man who has ever broken my heart after my dad. The second man I trusted but ended up hurting me for his first love.
The look in his face and the gentleness in his eyes were so familiar. I could never forget those stares and eyes. I could never let go of our beautiful memories even when he hurts me real bad.
Sucking my breath, I pulled myself up and grabbed my bag. I was about to go back when Pierce grabbed my wrist, stopping me.
“Let me go!” I growled at him. I don’t care if people are watching. ƒrēewebnovel.com
He shook his head as his eyes softened and showed pain. “Don’t go back, Kelly. I’m begging you.”
I pushed him away and angrily slapped him. “Did you see what happened? Huh?”
He held my wrist again. Firmly, this time, not wanting to let me go.
“Kelly, your dad won’t be happy if you go back to that house. Please think of yourself—”
“What about my dad?” I growled back. “I wasted so much time hating him and we just reconciled. I need to go back to him! Let go!”
“Kelly, listen to me.” He tried to cup my cheeks but I pushed him away again. Unfortunately, he doesn’t want to let me go. “Please, hear me out.”
“I said let me go!”
“No, please. Don’t. Don’t go back, Kelly. You need to leave.”
I sobbed as I couldn’t take it anymore. I looked him in the eyes with so much hatred and misery.
“My d-dad, Pierce... I promised him I-I’ll come back but look...”
