All I Ask Is a Quiet Life Chapter 22
"Her answer's no!" Terence shouted.He was still in his hospital gown as he stood beneath the stage. His multitude of bandages peeked out from beneath the gown, and his usually tidy hair was now a disheveled mess. All in all, he looked rather ghastly in his unkempt state. However, he didn't care about the strange looks he received. He continued to stare stubbornly at Celeste."What are you doing, Mr. Ford?" Mason asked, narrowing his eyes as he stood defensively in front of Celeste. "Are you trying to steal my fiancée?"Eyes red with jealousy, Terence glowered at Mason and tightened his fists. But upon recalling his goal, he quickly hurried over to Celeste and said, "Don't marry him, Celeste. Please don't marry him, okay?"I know I made a terrible mistake. I know everything in the past was my fault, but I'm begging you to give me a chance. I'll change. I'll love you with my whole heart…"Afraid that Celeste wouldn't believe him, he pulled out a box he'd brought with him and open

Seeing that Celeste wasn't denying any of that, Hayden began inspecting Celeste's scars with an aching heart. From the start, he'd been worried that Terence would hurt her, but she'd always defended Terence and refused to tell him anything.Hayden's heart broke at the thought of how Celeste, who'd been doted on and cherished by the entire family, had to go through such suffering.After calmly meeting Mason's gaze, Hayden could tell that they shared the same thought. They exchanged a nod in silence before instructing the bodyguards to take Terence away.Hayden hung back to check on Celeste while Mason followed the bodyguards out. He watched as they dragged Terence to a dark, deserted area. Once they dumped him onto the muddy ground, he commanded icily, "Give him 99 cuts, and not a single one less."…In his foggy mind, Terence went back to a moment in his and Celeste's past. He went back to the time when Winona said to him, "I'm not someone who takes a hit without biting back. She

Alas, no matter how much Terence shouted as he ran after the car, the car showed no sign of slowing down, not even for a second.The Terence from three months ago would never have thought that he would one day disregard all of his pride and dignity just to beg for Celeste's forgiveness. It certainly would never have occurred to him that even when he went to such extreme lengths, abandoning all else and saying all the right things, he still wouldn't so much as get a look from her.Slowly, the car left him in the dust. As he watched the car's lights disappear into the distance, he felt as though his heart had been ripped out of his chest. Soon, stubbornness filled his eyes. He wasn't giving up so easily.He must have hurt Celeste too deeply, but that didn't matter. He would remain patient and find the right way to win her back. No matter what it took, he was going to get her back.Terence left looking broken and despairing.…The next few days, he didn't get a chance to see Celeste

Celeste reported to the police, "Someone is deliberately causing trouble here. He attacked my boyfriend on purpose."Terence's eyes widened as he froze in disbelief. Words failed him. He watched as she left with Mason, leaving the butler behind to deal with the police report. She walked off without even sparing him a look.His heart twisted in pain.Terence still couldn't believe that Celeste would act this way toward him. She no longer spared him any of her attention and didn't care that he was injured.While the police took Terence away, Celeste brought Mason to the hospital. He wasn't seriously injured, but his bruises did look rather alarming.Celeste grimly took in the bruises on Mason's face. After asking the nurse for some disinfectant, she carefully began tending to Mason's bruises."I didn't expect this to happen. I'm sorry. From now on, I'll keep an eye on Terence's activity. If he ever does something like that again, I'll call the police. I won't let him hurt you again

There was more than Terence wanted to say, but before he could speak, Celeste had lost all her patience. She turned around and walked off without even sparing him another glance.Heart trembling, Terence instinctively ran after her."Don't leave, Celeste. Let me explain myself. I want to apologize to you. Can you let me finish what I have to say…"He kept following her right up to the doorstep. Doing his best to quell his panic, he gingerly reached out to take her hand. Alas, before he could even touch her, the door slammed shut, keeping him out of the house."Celeste, I know I was wrong about everything I accused you of back then. I've looked into everything. I know the truth about what Winona did, and I've made her pay for it, too! I've sent her away."I don't want a divorce, Celeste! I know I hurt you in the past, but I recognize the errors in my ways now. I'll change! I'll turn over a new leaf! Don't be with Mason. Don't leave with him…"Terence's voice was pleading. He press

Terence whipped around just in time to see two people coming out of the car with their hands still clasped together.Celeste, who had to run the company herself, used to dress in sleek business suits all the time. However, after coming to Marconia, she started wearing more skirts and dresses. This time, she was wearing a black miniskirt. She had pulled her long hair into a bun, and there was a mesmerizing smile on her bright face.Terence had only seen this side of her before she turned 20. Ever since they got married, all of her charm and liveliness had been wiped out as a result of him.He was rooted to the spot, his gaze flickering. He watched as Celeste and Mason slowly leaned toward each other. Just as they were about the kiss, a surge of rage burned within him, removing all his rationality."Celeste! What the hell are you doing?" Terence snarled icily.Celeste and Mason, who'd been immersed in a romantic moment in the yard, paused and turned toward Terence.At last, Terence
