Chapter 1139
Xylia Xandrell looked at the golden card, feeling a sharp pain in her eyes.Her heart, at this moment, was utterly cold.
Eight years of waiting, only to receive such a flimsy card.
Fifty million, did it buy her eight years of longing day and night?
Drip...
A tear dropped onto the back of the girl’s hand.
Seeing the girl’s sudden tears, Mason Bennett did not feel a bit of softness.
It didn’t matter whether he knew her before or if she was the girl who often appeared in his dreams at midnight.
He couldn’t allow himself to have any softness or compassion.
He absolutely would not permit such a ticking time bomb between him and Bella Green.
No matter what he might have promised, or if there had been emotions he didn’t remember.
Let them think of him as heartless.
He would rather betray the whole world than betray Bella Green...
Even if the world criticized him, he wouldn’t care.
Xylia Xandrell let out a desolate smile, looking at the face she had yearned for over eight years.
Yet she could no longer reconcile it with the smiling face from eight years ago.
"You are this heartless to me because of Bella Green?"
Xylia Xandrell stared blankly at the card and spoke.
Hearing the name Bella Green, Mason Bennett’s expression grew even colder, and his voice was increasingly icy and severe.
"If you dare to mention a single word to Bella, believe me, I definitely won’t be this easygoing then."
Easygoing?
Xylia Xandrell laughed, tears uncontrollably streaming down her face.
With Bella Green, he was endlessly protective, refusing to even let her know about these things.
But what about her?
She had waited for him for eight years, only to receive merciless indifference.
And a ridiculous bank card.
Why?
Xylia Xandrell’s eyes were bloodshot, looking at Mason Bennett, her throat ached painfully, making it hard to speak.
"Why, why is it Bella Green?"
If it were someone else, she might be able to let it go, and put all the blame on him.
It was he who had fallen for someone else.
But why did it have to be Bella Green?
The sister she had cared for since childhood.
Why did it have to be her?
Mason Bennett showed no expression, clearly with no intention of answering her question.
Xylia Xandrell slowly stood up, not even sparing Mason Bennett a glance, and staggered as she left the café.
Outside, the sky had somehow darkened.
A biting chill crept in through her collar.
Making her teeth chatter uncontrollably.
Mason Bennett still sat there, looking at the card in front of him, his eyes warm and cool.
The sharp pain in his head came in waves, at this moment, even more intensely.
As if a large hand was pulling at his nerves.
The constant sound of "little cripple" in his ear eased his pain a bit.
Then, as if another voice called out again and again, "Ajiu."
Ajiu, are you afraid of the dark?
Ajiu, why do you never leave the room?
Ajiu...
Mason Bennett didn’t know how he left the café.
When he returned to the office, his face was already pale, without a trace of color.
Upon his entrance, Sophia Latham was shocked.
Elliot Morris vaguely knew something but didn’t dare to ask.
In the office, Mason Bennett curled up on the sofa, clutching his stomach, frowning in pain, gritting his teeth tightly.
The pain, long missed, made even breathing difficult for him.
In his ear, the sound of dripping continued to echo.
In front of him was a field of darkness, and he seemed to have touched something moist.
The smell of blood at his nose was so overwhelming that it almost drove him mad.
