Chapter 11: To love you and to stand by your side
"I will never mess around with your things or plot against you again,'' Ella deliberately slowed her words to check his reaction but the man seemed to be far from moved.
''And I won't try to run away anymore.''
Adrian's gaze changed lightly.
Ella was enlightened suddenly.
This man... he did not really care about his company and all but he was moved when she said she wouldn't run away?
This enlightenment amused her but bewildered her all the more.
Ella slowly walked towards him.
In her previous life, she had never done that. Only when adrenaline hit her did she approach him out of rage, wanting to kill him.
At other times, he scared her as much as the devil would scare a human.
But now, despite the lingering fear that was ingrained in her, this man did not seem as scary.
''I won't ever try to run away again,'' She looked up into his eyes and said with conviction.
