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. Itwould 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 fingernailstightly against the car window and said, ” Ethan, you bastard! Back then, you asked me to stay by yourside forever. But now you don’t want me. You’re a liar.”

Ethan remained silent.

Donna continued, “Ethan, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have left you. That car crash was just an accident. Ididn’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 wantto get out!”

Leyton opened the partition between the front and back seats, allowing Donna to scream. He remainedunmoved.

Initially, Ethan planned to say what he told her only after that. But a voice in his head told him it hadbeen 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 waschewing 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 removethem all at once? Don’t take this lightly. I’d recommend you do it in several sessions. Otherwise, thewounds from removing such a large area of tattoos all at once can easily get infected. And with thismuch work, I’m afraid I’ll be removing your tattoos until tomorrow.”novelbin

‘I have to admit, he has an impressive physique,‘ she thought before saying, “Actually, you look quitegood with those

tattoos…”

Ethan took out several thick stacks of money from his wallet. There was at least over a thousanddollars. 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?”

“I got injured,” Ethan responded as he stared at the ceiling painted with colorful paint and the glaringlights.

He actually had many scars, big and small, on his body. Some of them were left by his mother whenshe was drunk. These scars had been with him for over a decade. Some of the scars were from the caraccident.

Back then, he asked Donna to tattoo him. He wanted to have tattoos just like her because he wanted tocover his scars with them. He thought since he had decided to start anew, he should not keep thosetattoos.

When the girl with the dreadlocks noticed the scars on his body, she realized Ethan seemed to havemany 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 carat the gate. But I just kept quiet inside this villa. He left after just a short while. My guess is that heprobably 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 restnow.”

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 tinyservant’s room to a guest room on the fourth floor. Madelyn thought there were too many unoccupiedrooms anyway.
