I dont want to see her .
My body trembled as 1 spoke .
I could feel this bodys reflex anger .
It was disheartening to realize that I wasnt capable of Ignoring them .
I still got mad , furious even , to the point .
where I wanted to lose control .
I couldnt tell if it was fragments of lost memories surfacing or simply the aftermath of the concussion .

All I knew was that my body felt off .
Whenever anything involved Julian or Chloe , an overwheling discomfort took over .
It felt pathological , something deeply rooted in my mind .
Dolly noticed immediately that something was wrong .
She turned to Chloe and snapped , Chloe , Evelyn has nothing to say to you .
Whether youre here to apologize or to flaunt something , we dont care anymore .
Her tone sharpened .
Youre like a fly buzzing around rotten food .
Annoying , disgusting .
Julians the rotten food , and youre the fly .
Perfect match , so just stay out of everyone elses lives .
Chloe visibly wavered under Dollys barrage of insults , looking like she might collapse at any moment .
When she stepped forward , reaching out to grab me , Dolly swung her hand to block her .
Chloe clutched her face with a pained gasp .
Whats going on here ? Julians furious voice cut through the tension as he strode toward us , his face dark with anger .
Dolly , glaring at Chloes crumpled figure , let out a cold laugh .
Right on cue .
Chloe , you tipped him off , didnt you ? Same old game .
Arent you tired of pulling this stunt every time ? Chloes eyes welled with tears , her expression a perfect blend of vulnerability and despair , designed to draw sympathy .
She looked up at Julian , helpless and trembling , and reached out to cling to his arm .
Julian , dont be upset .
Miss White didnt do anything to me .
I watched the scene unfold with cold detachment .
Then , out of nowhere , Julian did something that left us all stunned .
Julian avoided Chloes grasp , his anger tightly restrained .
Chloe , go back .
This isnt the place for you .
Both Chloe and Dolly froze in disbelief .
Caught off guard , I met Julians gaze , and for a moment , I was stunned too .
He was looking directly at me , his expression unreadable , filled with something I couldnt quite place .

Jullan , I know I shouldnt have come .
I just wanted to explain everything to Miss White .
I can even give the pink diamond back to her … But Julian didnt look at her tear streaked face .
His gaze remained fixed on me , unwavering Feeling uncomfortable , I wiped my face , wondering if there was something on it that had caught his attention .
Without turning his head , Julian said , Chloe , you should address her as Mrs.
Moore .
The room fell into an awkward silence , thick enough to cut with a knife .
Chloes shock quickly turned to devastation .
She let out a brittle laugh as tears rolled down her cheeks in large , dramatle drops .
Alright , I understand now .
Mr.
Moore , I promise I wont appear in front of you both again .
Turning to me , she said , Mrs.
Moore , Im sorry .
I apologize for all the trouble Ive caused you over the years .
Ill leave now .
! With that , she turned and walked away without a backward glance , her steps resolute despite her tears .
I watched her retreating figure , unmoved , before turning to Julian .
Arent you going after her ? For a moment , his eyes softened with melancholy and hesitation , a flicker of regret passing through them .
I let out a dry laugh .
Go ahead , chase after her .
I couldnt care less .
