I Walked Away In The Rain, He Never Forgave Me

Synopsis

Alex Carter had struggled with a speech disorder since childhood. That year, when he saw me as his savior, I was the one who finally got him to speak. For years after, we were like two vines wrapped around each other, surviving in barren soil, feeding off each other's strength so close. We couldn't let go. We both believed we could go on like this forever. But then, on a rainy night, I turned and climbed into a spoiled rich kid's Porsche, shutting Alex's mouth for good. "Do you really expect me to waste away here with you?" I said coldly. Tears streamed down Alex's face, his mouth open but unable to say a single word. I looked at him, my eyes cold, completely indifferent. Years later, when we met again, Alex was already a force to be reckoned with in the business world. The moment we locked eyes, he had his hand around my throat and pinned me against the wall, his eyes blazing red with fury. I hadn't heard his voice in years, and now it was laced with years of resentment. "Laura, how dare you show your face in front of me?" Alex spat. I managed a weak smile. I was practically dying; how could I possibly have the strength to mess with you?
