Ethan said, “Leyton, take her back to Prilo.”
Prilo was a small town about a hundred miles away from Ventropolis. It was Donna’s hometown. It would take about
two to three hours by car to get there.
Leyton hesitated, “But, Mr. Arnold, you…”
“I know what I’m doing,” Ethan said before getting out of the car. When Donna also tried to get out, Leyton locked
the door. Donna cried so much that she ruined her makeup. She clenched her fingernails tightly against the car
window and said, ” Ethan, you bastard! Back then, you asked me to stay by your side forever. But now you don’t
want me. You’re a liar.”
Ethan remained silent.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDonna continued, “Ethan, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have left you. That car crash was just an accident. I didn’t expect
it’d make you become like this. I’ll spend my whole life making it up to you from now on, okay? Let’s not separate
again. I beg you… Don’t send me back!
“I’ll go crazy without you!” Donna repeatedly hit the car window and said, “Leyton, open the door! I want to get
out!”
Leyton opened the partition between the front and back seats, allowing Donna to scream. He remained unmoved.
Initially, Ethan planned to say what he told her only after that. But a voice in his head told him it had been long
enough. It told him that if he did not get her back soon, his girl would be gone for good.
He thought, ‘What can I do even if I give in? I can’t live without her!‘
It was not past nine o’clock yet. At a tattoo shop, a girl about sixteen or seventeen with dreadlocks was chewing
gum as she looked at the handsome man in front of her. His bare arm was covered in tattoos. She raised her
eyebrow as she said, “Hey, handsome. Are you sure you want to completely remove them all at once? Don’t take
this lightly. I’d recommend you do it in several sessions. Otherwise, the wounds from removing such a large area of
tattoos all at once can easily get infected. And with this much work, I’m afraid I’ll be removing your tattoos until
tomorrow.”
‘I have to admit, he has an impressive physique,‘ she thought before saying, “Actually, you look quite good with
those
tattoos…”
Ethan took out several thick stacks of money from his wallet. There was at least over a thousand dollars. This was
equivalent to her several months of salary.
She thought she would be a fool not to take the money.
She said, “Lay down. It might hurt a little. Bear with it.” The girl then pulled a chair and sat beside him. She started
removing the tattoos on the back of his hand. She gently touched his hand as she said, “Did you have scars here? It
seems like there are a lot. Mister, how did you get them?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I got injured,” Ethan responded as he stared at the ceiling painted with colorful paint and the glaring lights.
He actually had many scars, big and small, on his body. Some of them were left by his mother when she was drunk.
These scars had been with him for over a decade. Some of the scars were from the car accident.
Back then, he asked Donna to tattoo him. He wanted to have tattoos just like her because he wanted to cover his
scars with them. He thought since he had decided to start anew, he should not keep those tattoos.
When the girl with the dreadlocks noticed the scars on his body, she realized Ethan seemed to have many secrets.
But she did not ask him about it. She just continued to work carefully.
Madelyn went back to the Southern Haven Villas.
Margaret prepared supper for Madelyn. She said, “Ms. Jent, Mr. Jardin came today. He stopped his car at the gate.
But I just kept quiet inside this villa. He left after just a short while. My guess is that he probably didn’t enter the
correct password.”
“Okay. I’m not eating supper, so you can have some. I can’t eat this much myself. I’ll go upstairs to rest now.”
Margaret nodded, “All right then. Rest well, Ms. Jent.”
Ever since Margaret was the only servant left in this house, Madelyn had her move from the tiny servant’s room to
a guest room on the fourth floor. Madelyn thought there were too many unoccupied rooms anyway.
