Chapter 316: How the hell could you do that!
The two of them were like returning to the starting point when they first met eight years ago."Ariel Morris! Get out of my way! Don’t think I really won’t hit you!" Arlo Seys’s thin lips trembled slightly, his fingers gripping the steering wheel instinctively tightened, barely holding himself back from getting out of the car.
Ariel Morris said nothing, biting her lip and standing her ground, not moving an inch, her eyes resolutely meeting Arlo Seys’s gaze, speaking volumes.
A cold light intensified in Arlo Seys’s eyes as he pushed the car door open and stepped out, walking towards Ariel Morris with an icy aloofness.
His approach emanated an extreme coldness, Ariel Morris bit her lip, stubbornly holding back the tears in her eyes as she watched him come closer.
"Arlo, please listen to me, okay?" Ariel Morris’s voice was trembling and hoarse.
Arlo Seys let out a cold laugh, grabbing her left wrist, "Ariel Morris! Your left wrist, explain it to me clearly!"
Wrist-slitting suicide—just thinking of the four words Scarlett Morris had mentioned made Arlo Seys feel all his strength drain away, leaving him numb with pain.
Even though he already knew about her suicide attempt eight years ago, Ariel Morris instinctively didn’t want him to see that scar. The scar had not faded with the passage of those eight years and remained obvious on her wrist.
Ariel Morris’s struggle to pull her hand away appeared as evasion in Arlo Seys’s eyes. He looked at her, his eyes and face full of indifference, "Ariel Morris! How could you be so ruthless!"
How could she be so ruthless as to cut deep into her own wrist...
Ariel Morris’s wrist hurt from Arlo Seys’s grip, and she could no longer hold back her tears, letting them fall. She looked at Arlo Seys and slowly spoke, "Yes, I attempted suicide by slashing my wrist eight years ago."
Her tone was calm, almost aloof, her face only adorned with crystalline tears. Arlo Seys looked at her, suddenly letting out a cold laugh, feeling like he once again lost to a heartless woman, one who abandoned him eight years ago!
Arlo Seys laughed coldly for a few seconds, then yanked off the bracelet on Ariel Morris’s wrist. When the scar came into view, his body shuddered violently.
The scar on that fair wrist pierced his eyes intensely.
"Ariel Morris! When did you attempt suicide eight years ago?!"
Ariel Morris wiped away her silent tears, looking at him, biting her lower lip, and trembling, "The day after the night at the Imperial Garden Hotel."
Arlo Seys’s face was filled with deep sarcasm, "Eight years ago, was that night with me so disgusting to you? Was it so humiliating? Ariel Morris, how could you do it! How the hell could you do it!!"
If a knife were placed in front of him, asking him to choose between hurting himself or her, he would painfully stab himself without causing her a scratch! Because he couldn’t bear her, whom he loved, to suffer even a tiny harm!
But Ariel Morris, how ruthless and disgusted with being with me did you have to be to use suicide as a threat to your parents to send you abroad, just to get away from me?
Ariel Morris, just how ruthless and heartless are you?!
Ariel Morris shook her head in panic, "No! Arlo, I have never regretted giving myself to you!"
Arlo Seys’s mouth curled into a chilling smile, "Ariel Morris, since you were willing to commit suicide just to leave the country, why come back?! Eight years ago, I slept with you, you felt disgusted, so what about these days? Being with me, do you not feel disgusted anymore? When you got into bed with me, didn’t you think it was an irony compared to the wrist-slashing suicide you attempted to escape me eight years ago? Eight years ago, I slept with you, you felt disgusted, and eight years later you came back to be slept with by me! Ariel Morris, are you shameless?!"
