...He was right… She had already anticipated all this backlash, so why had things taken this terrible turn…?
…It was probably because she hadn’t anticipated Zivon to actually hurt her so badly… Never in a million years would she have guessed that he viewed her as such a slut deep down… Hell, he had even attempted to rape her! Honestly, had he not gone that far on the boat and chosen to prioritize saving Mark instead, she probably wouldn’t be this disappointed right now…
Well, it was pointless to think about that now. After all, if he already viewed her as such a terrible woman, there was zero point in keeping him around… So what if she returned to his side and pretended to be fine? How much longer could she last now that she knew the bitter truth?
Shaking her head, the saddened woman replied, “…I appreciate your worry, Mr. Miller… But I believe that both of us need some space to think things through-”
“I should clarify that I didn’t say all that to guilt-trip you… In fact, I understand why you’re feeling so disappointed in him. However, you shouldn’t negate the fact that he was already a heartbroken man by the time all that happened on that ship… He really isn’t as horrible as you currently view him…”
“For one, did you know that he immediately asked where you were once he woke up from his surgery? And when he learned that you had gone missing again, he got so worried that he refused the doctor’s orders to stay in bed just so that he could personally rescue you. Speaking of your disappearance, we need to talk about Rhea, the actual culprit behind all this!”
