Chapter 1579Her heart was racing, nearly out of control, as she tried to keep her emotions for him in check. Her breath quickened, her cheeks flushed with the
heat of intense love, yet the last shred of reason in her mind screamed at her to resist completely falling for him. She clenched her fists so tightly that
her nails dug into her skin, using the pain to keep her grounded.
“Talking to me won’t change anything. I accepted two hundred thousand from your mother years ago to end all ties with you,” she said, her voice calm
and devoid of excess emotion.
“Alaric, to a woman like me, every man is just a fleeting fancy. I fell for you at first sight, but then my heart wandered to Eamon, and after that, to
Spencer. And now, I’ve realized I only truly love myself. Do you understand?” Despite the turmoil of feelings for Alaric churning within her like molten
lava, she coldly delivered these indifferent words to him Ads by PubFuture
Part of her restraint was fear—fear of letting Alaric discover she had borne him two children. She knew he could use them to manipulate her, stripping
her of her autonomy. Moreover, she couldn’t trust Alaric not to fight her for custody. Cn the other hand, she still hadn’t gotten over the shock of seeing
Alaric and Georgia in bed together.
Though she knew Alaric had been with many women before, seeing it with her own eyes was a different story. She could accept his past relationships
unseen, but the image of Alaric and Georgia together, naked and entwined, was seared into her memory, impossible to forget. Even though Alaric
was now estranged from his family, trying to break off his engagement with Georgia, she couldn’t bring herself to accept him
Listening to her, Alaric’s charming smile faltered, his expression turning solemn. “So, you’re saying you don’t like me anymore?”Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

After breakfast, she got dressed and was about to head out when she opened her door to find Alaric standing there, still holding a bouquet of flowers.
“It’s the same bouquet from earlier. I removed the outer, damaged petals and made it into a smaller arrangement. It’s for you. Put it in a vase on your
dining table; it might brighten up your meals.” Alaric handed her the flowers.
She was taken aback.
Alaric said, “Flowers can be rearranged after they wilt, and love can be rekindled after it’s lost. None of it is impossible.”
Hearing this, her heart skipped a beat.
