Never

Linda gasped in shock.

The man didn’t get mad. Instead, he raised a hand and touched his own face. “I guess my face is really terrifying. Even someone who once said they wouldn’t be scared of me finds me repulsive now.”

The sentence sounded very familiar to Linda, and her mind conjured the image of someone she knew, but this man was completely different.

“Linda, it’s only been eight years. How could you forget me so quickly?”

The man looked somewhat aggrieved, with a tone that carried a hint of pity.

“You were the first to tell me that you weren’t afraid of seeing my face. You also said that I still have a good heart, despite my damaged face. How could you forget me so soon?** The man pulled out a perfectly sealed box from his pocket

He unwrapped it layer by layer, as if searching for a precious treasure, and took out a photograph.

He showed Linda the photo. “Do you know? This photo is the only thing that’s kept me going these past eight years. Whenever people say I was horrifying, I’d look at this photo. “You were the only one who ever showed me warmth and the only one who gave me the courage to keep going. But now, you’re telling me you don’t remember me.‘

His expression changed abruptly. “Linda, do you know how hard I’ve been searching for you all these years?”

Linda tried to back away but was already cornered against the wall

“Do you know? I thought my life would improve every day if I could find you. If I had told you that I wanted to be with you back then, wouldn’t you have been spared all the pain from William? Wouldn’t you have avoided all those injuries?

“I’m the only person in this world who cares about you. When I heard you were in trouble, I wanted nothing more than to tear William to pieces!” Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

“We may have known each other once, but I honestly don’t remember you now. And like you said, while your face is scarred, I believe that doesn’t define who you are.

“Let’s discuss this over. Whatever your conditions or money you need, I can meet your demands.”

She wouldn’t be terrified if it were other people, but this man was horrifying. While others might only want money, this man could be dangerous if he really lost control *Linda, I just want to ask you, do you really not remember me?”

The sadness in his eyes was palpable

Linda tried hard to recall, but she just couldn’t remember who this person was.

“Eight years ago, in an abandoned building in the suburbs of Osmo“!

The man mentioned these keywords.

Suddenly, a face flashed in Linda’s mind.

“Arden Shaw?

The man finally smiled. “I thought you might have forgotten me completely.”

Arden put the photo back into the box. “Linda, you were also afraid of me back then, right?”

He didn’t wait for her to answer. “I sensed you were afraid, even though you tried to protect my pride. But you were the only person who showed me kindness. That’s why I’ve been looking for you all these years.”

“I know I am way out of your league, so I was willing to see you be happy with someone else. But are the men you’ve chosen really any better than me?

“Look at what happened to William, the man you loved so much. You ended up severely injured and almost paralyzed. Even after barely surviving, you still there anyone else?

He frowned.
