Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 101

Rachelle clutched the bedsheet tightly as she glared at Hansel. Her whole body was tense and rigid, but she remained silent.

Hansel spoke up again. "Rachelle, I just wanted to see you… I've been worried about you all year. I wanted to find you, but my family kept watching over me. They wouldn't let me come to see you… Rachelle, you know I love you. I've been thinking about you all the time…"

He poured out his feelings, oblivious to the fact that each word sounded like the devil's whisper to Rachelle. Her body trembled uncontrollably as the memories of being bullied and threatened into becoming his girlfriend replayed in her mind.

She couldn't hold back and screamed shrilly, "Shut up! Stop speaking!"

Rachelle's eyes reddened as she glared at Hansel. Her voice trembled, but she sounded resolute. "I don't wish to see you at all! Every word you say disgusts me to the core. You're a bastard, Hansel! Why won't you just leave me alone? What did I do wrong? What did I do to deserve this?"

Since waking up yesterday, Rachelle had been on edge. Like Daniella, she tried to forget the events of a year ago. She even started to dream of a new life.

Hansel's arrival made her realize she couldn't put everything behind and let go of the past.

She yelled hysterically, trying to vent the pain and despair she had bottled up for two years. Shannon stayed silent. Scott, who was holding Hansel down, pressed down harder. Hansel seemed oblivious to the pressure. He simply stared at Rachelle in disbelief.

In his mind, he thought that their long separation and his resistance against his family for her sake should have brought them closer. She had survived a near-death experience, and this should have made her realize her feelings for him.
