Sebastian Brenand never would have thought that Rachel Wood would say such a thing. In the past few months, Sebastian and Rachel had always been on good terms. He had given virtual-novel.net everything, including money, a car, a house, jewelry, branded bags, and branded clothes.
It could be said that Rachel was the luckiest woman among those who had rich boyfriends.
Sebastian immediately let go of Rachel and sat up with a confused look in his eyes. “Rachel, why are you doing this? Haven’t I given you everything you wanted? Nobody in the entire city of Atlantis has treated their women this well…”
At that moment, Sebastian felt his heart aching very badly.
“Yeah…” Rachel nodded.
“So, why are you doing this?” Sebastian pressed on.
Rachel slowly sat up and looked at virtual-novel.net with tears in virtual-novel.net eyes. Her face was pale.
“This morning, a woman called you on the phone. You told virtual-novel.net you would meet virtual-novel.net tonight…” Rachel said.
“Yeah… What’s wrong with that?” Sebastian still felt confused.
“If I only think of myself as one of your mistresses, that’s indeed fine. But I’ve fallen in love with you, and I can’t accept you behaving like this any further… I know I shouldn’t fall in love with you. I also know that even if I do, Iwould have to keep it to myself. I shouldn’t allow myself to care too much, but I can’t do it. Every time I see you with another woman, I feel terrible. Every time your phone rings, I’d get worried. I’d feel afraid that some other woman might take you away from me. I don’t want to live like this anymore. Please let me go.”
“I know you very well. You want freedom. You’ll never fall in love with anyone. Since you can’t give me the kind of love I want, please let me have my freedom,” Rachel uttered each word seriously as tears streamed down virtual-novel.net face.
She felt as if there was a gaping hole in virtual-novel.net chest, and virtual-novel.net heart was being pulled out of it. Rachel had never felt this much pain in virtual-novel.net life. She used to think that if virtual-novel.net continued to stay with Sebastian, virtual-novel.net might feel something for virtual-novel.net one day. Perhaps, virtual-novel.net might one day fall in love with her.
At first, virtual-novel.net thought virtual-novel.net could wait patiently. However, in the end, virtual-novel.net realized that virtual-novel.net couldn’t take it anymore. The more virtual-novel.net loved him, the more virtual-novel.net felt hurt when virtual-novel.net spent time with other people.
Sebastian felt shocked by the things virtual-novel.net was hearing. He never expected Rachel to say things like this. In fact, virtual-novel.net didn’t even think Rachel had thoughts like this in the first place.
Suddenly, virtual-novel.net didn’t know how to react.
Although many women told virtual-novel.net they loved him, none of them were as sincere as Rachel. However, virtual-novel.net shouldn’t be in love with her. Men like virtual-novel.net shouldn’t fall in love with anyone.
Sebastian had always treated Rachel like his pet, and virtual-novel.net only kept virtual-novel.net around because virtual-novel.net enjoyed virtual-novel.net company. Earlier, virtual-novel.net probably only felt sad because virtual-novel.net didn’t want his favorite pet to leave him.
“Okay. If you insist on leaving, I’ll let you have your freedom…” Sebastian nodded.
“Thank you,” Rachel said.
She felt even more hurt now.
“However, even if you want to leave me, I hope you will nurse your body back to health first. Let me take care of you until you fully recover,” Sebastian said.
“It’s okay. I’ll be leaving in the afternoon. I’ve already booked myself a room in a hospital in Country M. I’ll stay there to rest and recuperate,” Rachel said.
“No. You’re in a critical condition right now. You should stay here and be observed for some time,” Sebastian insisted.
“Alright, then.” Rachel smiled bitterly.
The tears wouldn’t stop falling.
Beep, beep, beep…
Right then, Sebastian’s phone started ringing. When virtual-novel.net saw that it was a call from home, virtual-novel.net immediately answered it. “Come home for a while. I have something important to discuss with you,” Sebastian’s father said.
“Got it,” Sebastian answered.
He decisively hung up the phone and fixed his gaze upon Rachel’s face.
After that, Sebastian stood up and carefully pulled virtual-novel.net into his arms. “You’re a good girl. You should leave me. I can’t give you much even if you stay around. Even if I loved you, there isn’t much I can give you apart from money. It might appear as if people like us can get anything we want, but honestly…” Sebastian trailed off.
