Domineering Love

Daniel Peacock stood sideways outside the parlour, and after Grace Smith went upstairs, he turned his head to observe Cherish Turner, who emerged from the room like a wandering soul. Seeing her red-rimmed eyes, he spoke as she approached him, "It’s just a soap opera, how could you take it so seriously?"

Cherish Turner paused, her long black hair concealing her cheeks.

Looking straight ahead with a soft, gloomy voice, she said, "The drama is fiction, but, I took it to heart."

Daniel Peacock’s gaze immediately became serious. He adjusted his silver-framed glasses to dispel the dark cloud that had arisen. His handsome face turned severe as he looked at her calm and fair face, and asked in a casual tone, "It’s a typhoon today, did he not reach out to you?"

Cherish Turner didn’t want to interact with him anymore. She felt that such a conversation was neither meaningful nor necessary and would only exhaust her.

So, she took a step and continued on her way.

Seeing her cold treatment, Daniel Peacock suddenly felt a pang in his chest. He abruptly grabbed her wrist, forcing her to turn back. He said coldly, "I bet he’s long forgotten about you and is happily enjoying himself with some other woman! What are you to him, Cherish Turner? In his eyes, you’re no different from any other women and he might reject you anytime! Since the start, he’s had Chloe Turner in his heart, you should have figured it out by now."

The words of Daniel Peacock pierced Cherish Turner’s heart, making her feel as if her throat was blocked and she couldn’t make a sound.

After a long while, Cherish Turner forcefully shook off his hand with such force that even he was taken aback.

Then, she simply gave a light "hmm" in response.
