Gwen closed her eyes to clear her mind, streling herself for what was ahead. With newfound resolve, she walked toward the club’s entrance

Her features were striking, her natural beauty like a painting even without makeup. The waiter didn’t push farther.
Gwen watched the fur rain falling from the sky. She stood for a while, then squatted briefly before standing again.

“What’s the doing? Why juri she leaving“” a passing waiter wondered.
she’s probably trying to hook up with some rich guy, Young and reckless,” another server remarked.
Gwen pulled out her phone. It was nearly midnigla. If she didn’t find Ethan tonight, she’d have to stay at a hotel. The hospital’s inpatient department had already closed its doors to her

Now drenched and in a sorry state, Gwen wasn’t sure where Elluan was heading She had no choice but to hail a cab to follow him otherwise, no one in Rivermoor would be willing to help her.
If she had known that after three years, Elan still had no intention of letting her go, she would have played things differently.
It was too late for regrets now, Gwen just hoped she could catch up with Ethan.
But no taxis were available. Gwen took a deep breaths and couldn’t hold back. She shouted angrily, “Ethan, you son of a hitch I hope you get erectile dysfunction and premuntre ejaculation!”
After yelling, Gwen finally felt a little of the pent–up frustration case.
Suddenly, headlights flashed, blinding her. When she squinted, she saw the license plate, and then Ethan’s expressionless face as he stepped out of the car clearly coming to teach her a lesson
“Gwen, if you have the guts, say it again” he said coldly.
Without thinking, Gwen turned and but she was no match for Ethan’s men,
Louis and the others drove up, blocking the intersection. Gwen couldn’t cross the street, so within seconds, Ethan grabbed her arm and tossed her into the car
“Ethan! What are you doing? This is kidnapping! Help! Gwen screamed. But the next moment, she was thrown into the backseat, and squeezed in after her, immediately starting to strip off her clothes.
Her limbs frozen from the cold, Gaven was crammed into the small space and tried to fight him off. After three years with Ethan, this was the most furious and desperate she had ever been.
Even Ethan was taken aback by her reaction. “You dare to hit me?” he said.
“So what? You’re the one who made me come find you! You wouldn’t see me when I came, and now when I’m leaving, you’re grabbing me again What’s wrong with you?” Gwen yelled at him.
As soon as Chris got into the car, he was met with Gwen’s angry tirade. The partition was quickly raised, and Chris and the others were left wishing they could go deal right then and there.
With a sharp tearing sound, Gwen’s jacket i was ripped open. No matter how much she yelled, she couldn’t stop Ethan. In no time, he had stripped her down to nothing, not even leaving her underwear.
“You bastard, what do you think you’re doing? You just want to humiliate me, right? Fine, go ahead, let everyone see! It’s just nudity, you think I m scared of you?” Gwen kept yelling

for three years, not for a lifetime. Are you never going to stop? Even a mangy dog has more dignity than you, you scum” Gwen’s words were filled with venom, making Filuni’s face darken.
He grabbed a blanket from the backseat and threw it over her, covering her “Take this? Even if you paid someone, no one would want you. Why are you so desperate! Ethan snapped, furious.
He was actually worried that she’d get sick from her wet clothes, and he didn’t want

Gwen threw off the blanket. Itali, you speak so grandly. What did you tell the hospital? You’re all talk, always going back on your word?”
“You really want to keep provoking me?” Ethan sat across from her, watching her intently, his voice calm bat menacing

Chapter 18
Gwen fell silent. The car’s heater was on, and she soon began to feel warmer
The warmth reminded her of the time during her first year of college, at the closing ceremony of her school’s sports meet.
She had been locked in the gym, drenched in rain, and frozen for three hours. By the time Ethan came to rescue her, her body was numb from the
cold
At that time, when Ethan tried to undress her, she was hesitant and reluctant. But eventually, he coaxed her, and she ended up wrapped in a blanket curled up in his arms, while he gently warmed her frozen feet with his hands.
