The manager in the passenger seat urged Blake , Let go ! What if you kill her ? Blake released her ; Chloe gasped for air , her throat and lungs burning .
Shed thought she was going to die .
If murder wasnt illegal , Blake would have killed her .

Please forgive me .
Kneel , Blake said coldly , turning on his phones video recorder .
Apologize to Alice sincerely , or Ill make you suffer .

Apologize ! Are you deaf ? Chloe , dizzy from the blow , whimpered , It was my fault .
I lied .
Alice , please forgive me .
Its not Fours fault .
Its all my fault .
I lied to him .
Blake grabbed her hair.I said said speak to the camera ! Apologize properly ! Her scalp screamed in pain , but she dared not resist .
Shed seen Blake attack Alice ; he was merciless .
After beating Chloe , Blake took a breath , then kicked her .
Dont think you can replace Alice as the Windham familys daughter .
Youre an outsider , a pet we keep .
Chloes eyes darkened .
She would get revenge ; she wouldnt let Blake get away with this .
Blake told the driver , Stop .
Blake looked at Chloe with disgust .
Get out .
Ill give you a day to apologize to Alice and earn her forgiveness .
Otherwise , Ill make you suffer what she suffered .
Chloe scrambled out of the car , her high heel flying out the window , like discarding trash .
She picked up her expensive shoe and watched Blake drive away , her resolve hardening .

It was absurd .

Hes the one suffering now But I dont need his false apology , Alice said .
Youre right .
Theyre selfiah They blame you for their mistakes , Jack said , realizing the Windhams had taken Alices sacrifices for granted .

Alice smiled .
No , you came at the perfect time .

Jack , I really like you .
She tiptoed closer .
He gently cupped her face .
Let me take the lead next time .
He kissed her forehead tenderly .
Alice hugged him .
Cant we both take the lead ? want to give more , he whispered .
You dont have to , she murmured , nuzzling into his chest .
In her past life , shed longed for her brothers love and happiness , but shed grasped at nothing .
This life , she would live for herself , finding more happiness than shed ever known .
Jacks phone rang repeatedly .
Alice blushed , reminding him , You have calls .
Something important ? Jack reluctantly let go .
A meeting .
Ill be back later .
