Chapter 473: It was probably over
’It’s not true. It’s not true. He is just lying. There is nothing like that. The man who tells me he cares for me and only me won’t betray me like this. God won’t be so hard on me,’ Elliana sat on the ground with her knees pulled close to her chest as she rocked herself back and forth.
’Please let it not be correct. Something is wrong with my ears. My ears aren’t working fine anymore. I am hearing it all wrong. Mr. Marino would never do anything to break my heart. He promised to never hurt me,’ Elliana whispered to herself, her mind going in denial of disbelief.
Her eyes brimmed with tears as she tried her best to not let them fall.
There was no meaning and use for them to fall when it wasn’t true. Mr. Marino won’t betray her, not after everything they have shared.
It wasn’t just something he said to her.
She has looked into his eyes, and he never faked any emotion. They were genuine. All the emotions they shared were genuine. Her heart felt everything.
"You will marry her? You will marry Brooklyn, sir? Have you lost your mind? What about our princess?" Lucas raised his voice, making Sebastian raise his brows.
The guards who were guarding the place and standing near the main doors, looked at the subordinate as if he had lost his mind and didn’t love his life anymore.
How could he raise his voice at the prince knowing all too well how bad it can go?
"What’s so shocking about this, Lucas? My marriage with the princess was a marriage of convenience. It will be useless to me once I get the crown," Sebastian said, every word leaving his mouth stabbing Elliana’s heart and she took a deep shaky breath as she tried to stand from her place.
She tried to hold the side of the wall and was leaning on, but her hand slid down as her legs gave up again.
