All too late for his love (Willow and Zayn)

Chapter 395

Amit suddenly de Pillon

Het rosy lips quivered, but she couldn’t find the words to speak –––

Instead, she whispered softly in het heart. “It’s too late, Zayn. It’s really too late.”

he had said those words before Aaron’s incident, she would have broken down, seeking confort in his arms,

She would have poured out all her pain and sorrow, revealing just how difficult the past four years had been and how desperately she had yeaned for films in that dark, disulate place

But Aaron’s accident had changed everything.

At the cliff’s edge, he abandoned Azren without a second thought, all for Skyler.

And then there was Nicola.

it he hadn’t intentionally made things hard for her, it he had testified on her behalf, maybe her death wouldn’t have been so gruesome.

Anton was let crippled, and Nicola was lost at sea. Too much had come between them, and there was no turning back

Furthermore, he always boasted about trusting her, although he never actually did. But when it came to Skyler, he never hesitated to take her side.

Even if she were to claim that she broke up with him because Skyler pressured her, be still wouldn’t buy it.

Willow let out a bitter laugh, pushing aside her tangled thoughts as she spoke with a blank expression, “Mr. Carter, let me help you apply the medicine.”

Once the medicine was applied, they would part ways. No one belonged to anyone anymore.

Zav believed he had made a major concession today.

Despite her using that video to hurt Skyler, he didn’t hold it against her and even offered her a chance to explain what happened four years ago. Yet, she showed no gratitude. How ungrateful other!

A surge of intense anger i

flashed in his eyes. But just as he was about to explode, he managed to hold it back.

Since he couldn’t bear to let her go, even if she didn’t appreciate it, he would have to endure it for now.

“Willow, explain yourself to me!” Zayn’s gaze burned into Willow. His voice was commanding as he looked down at her.

Upon hearing his demand. Willow’s laughter bubbled up unexpectedly. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Her laughter was enchanting, with a hint of allure reminiscent of countless peach blossoms in fall bloom.

But beneath the facade of beauty, there was no warmth of spring, only a cold, cynical undertone.

“Mr. Carter, what exactly do you want me to explain? Willow’s voice carried a touch of sarcasm.

“That four years ago, Skyler forced me by threatening my grandmother’s life?”

“Willow! You’re still as unrepentant as ever! I gave you a chance, and you just used it to smear Skyler’s name! Willow, you are…

“Heh,” Willow interjected with a cold laugh. “Mr. Carter, you still think I’m smearing Skyler? See, you don’t believe me at all.

“If you don’t trust me, demanding an explanation from me is just ridiculous, Mr. Carter. You’re being ridiculous!

“Mr. Carter, I don’t know what’s gotten into you. All I know is that Aaron and I don’t need you anymore.

“Once, Aaron really wanted you as his father. He craved your care and affection, but you never gave it to him. You even drove him to despair! Thanks to you, Aaron says he doesn’t have a father anymore. His father died long ago, in his heart”

“Willow!

Zayn’s grip tightened around Willow’s shoulders. But when he looked into her eyes and saw the haunting emptiness, his angry voice wavered with a tremor.

“Willow, is that bastard.. is Aaron really my son? You didn’t kill our child?

Willow abruptly turned her face away, struggling to contain the rising sob in her throat,

“Mr. Carter, you’re mistaken. I’ve already told you. Aaron’s father is gone. Aaron doesn’t have a father anymore!”
