Chapter 127
Mason and Zoe looked at each other intensely.
He noticed she was wearing a patient’s gown and that she looked rather pale. He then realized she had a resigned look on her face as she regarded
him. as if she didn’t know him at all
It wasn''t that long ago when she was lying in his arms and speaking to him tenderly.
“It might take me years, even decades, to rediscover my love for you, Mason. Would you still want it then?”
He meant it when he said, “I would!” However, he couldn''t deny that he did squander her love after that.
They stared at each other for a long time. Atst, he spoke with a trembling voice, “Zoe!”
He tried to grab her hand, but she shoved him away.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.
A hint of sadness traced her lips as she spoke sternly, “I''ve been so naive! I can’t believe I thought you were really starting to love me! To this day, you
still thought I set you up that night. Just what am I to you?
‘I can''t believe I expected you to love me and that were really starting over! This is just ridiculous, Mason. Are you just that good at manipting
people, or am I just that big of a moron?!
“I thought the worst thing that could happen was that you didn’t love me in the end!
“It turns out it was just you still wanting to toy with me! Answer me, Mason. When will you stop toying with me? When will you let me go? I can’t afford
to be your ything anymore!”
She didn''t want to cry, but her tears flowed uncontrobly when she heard the truth. She knew he didn’t love her, but they had been having sex for
three years on end. That had to have done something!
The truth, however, was that she was merely a ything to him and he nned on toying with her for much longer. He merely thought of her as a
worthless whore!
Mason tried to touch her again, but she shoved him much fiercer than she did earlier.

she pation a smile defiantly, “Don''t
touctyme, Mason. I told you, you re
so-filthy that I couldn''t bearthe idea
ofyou touching mel”
With that, she turned and left. Cecil called out after her, “Zoe!” but she was long gone. She couldn''t hear him or anything else. The only thing she
could hear now was his stinging words.
“I’m not done toying with her!”
Mascon was stunned.
With tears in her eyes, the servant
was almost sobbing when she
grumbled, “Where were youst

He stared at her and said, “Zoe''s not feeling well, you say...”
She was about to say something when she heard ady’s agonizing scream, along with some feeble cries from the ward. Without a moment''s dy,
he charged back into the ward.
Stunned, she asked her master after a brief pause, “Aren''t you supposed to go after Ms. Zoe, Mr. Mason?”
Lilith was hooked up to a venttor again. Mason simply couldn''t leave.
It was raining by the time everything settled down and he raced downstairs. The ck limousine was parked in the rain, its wipers swishing left and

Zoe was in the car. The car window was all that was separating them. Raindrops slid down the window, mirroring the movement of the tears on her
cheeks.
The door was locked.

e wanted to tell her that she had

happy when he was with her.
However, his cries fell on deaf ears.
After a while, she turned to him slowly, her eyes were slightly red when she looked at him as if he was a stranger in her life. Parting her lips, she said
to Luke, “Drive!”
Luke was too afraid to say anything. So, he stepped on the gas pedal at once.
