Free Web NovelChapter 423: Chapter 423: From This Moment On, I’ll Say I Love You (23)
Cassian Jennings held her in a desperate, tight embrace.
He was bleeding, but he still refused to let go.
When Amelia Avery tasted blood, a hint of panic set in, and she began to struggle with all her might.
But Cassian Jennings gave her no room to resist.
But when it came to Cassian Jennings, Amelia Avery never knew how to say no. Within moments, she completely... lost... herself...
After a long moment,
Amelia Avery, her eyes red, leaned against Cassian Jennings’s shoulder.
Cassian Jennings held her tightly in his arms, his heart trembling with unease.
This long-lost feeling left his heart unable to calm, even now.
Just then, a blue sports car drove past. Since Amelia Avery was facing away from the road, she didn’t see it.
Inside, the man’s hands gripped the steering wheel tightly.
’Amelia Avery could never leave Cassian Jennings. He should have known that long ago...’
’No matter what a bastard Cassian Jennings was, Amelia liked him, loved him. No one could ever take his place...’
Suddenly, he felt an exhaustion that seemed to spring from the very depths of his soul.
’Leo Joyce shouldn’t let his life revolve around Amelia Avery anymore. This would probably be the last time.’
Before he knew it, he had driven to Crimson Blossom Academy.
He walked up to the classroom for Freshman Class A.
He stood outside the window, watching a young woman in the second row who was engrossed in a book, her head bowed in concentration.
His handsome brows furrowed slightly. He hadn’t seen her since the night he’d watched her go home.
Come to think of it, it had been over a month. freewёbnoνel.com
He gave a self-deprecating smirk, pulled out a pack of cigarettes, and lit one up.
"Hey, look! Isn’t that Young Master Joyce outside?" one of the girls sitting by the window exclaimed, having spotted Leo Joyce.
They pointed in astonishment at the man outside.
"I think it is! Why is Young Master Joyce at the academy? I’ve missed him so much! It feels like it’s been a century since I last saw him."
...
Hearing the girls’ chatter, Tiana Grayson’s brow furrowed. She glanced up toward the window and, sure enough, there was Leo Joyce.
Her heart began to race, and a faint blush colored her cheeks. But then she remembered how Leo Joyce had been avoiding her, refusing to see her or clarify their relationship, and she forced herself to suppress the swell of emotion.
The hand holding her book tightened slightly. She lowered her head and went back to reading. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
When Leo Joyce saw that Tiana had clearly noticed him but was now pretending she hadn’t, his brow furrowed even more deeply. He immediately crushed the cigarette in his hand, tossed it to the ground, and strode toward the classroom.
Seeing Young Master Joyce arrive, the teacher at the front of the room immediately stood up. He cleared his throat and said in a strained voice, "Young Master Joyce..."
He barely got the name out before Leo Joyce cut him off coldly. "I’m here to take Tiana."
"Young Master Joyce, class isn’t over yet..."
"Then put her down for a leave of absence. She won’t be in today or tomorrow," Leo Joyce stated coldly. He walked straight to Tiana, grabbed her arm, and began to pull her away.
Tiana frowned and muttered in displeasure, "I haven’t grabbed my bag..."
At her words, Leo Joyce let go of her arm, bent down to pull her bag from her desk, and said, "Let’s go."
"Oh."
Tiana responded coolly and followed him out of the classroom.
Only after they were out of the classroom did Tiana Grayson begin... to struggle...
