I Fell in Love with a Monster Chapter 23
Even the doctors said his condition was improving.The progression was slow, but he was improving nonetheless.Liam had planned to wait until Naomi was fully awake to explain everything to her.But then, he walked in on something unexpected—"Alright, I’ll stay away from him."Liam stood there, frozen.For someone who wasn’t supposed to feel emotions, why did it suddenly feel so hard to breathe?Naomi saw him, and in that instant, he caught the flicker of guilt and hesitation in her eyes.Forget it.It didn’t matter.So, he pretended he hadn’t heard a thing, and not long after, he left for another country.There, he sought out one of the most renowned psychologists for therapy.…By the time he was discharged from the treatment center, the doctor told him he had improved significantly.Maybe.Liam absently ran his fingers over the hair tie on his wrist.It was his medicine.…Naomi had been wronged.The moment Liam heard about it, he flew back home without hesitation.It never even cro

I listened in silence before suddenly laughing."Then would you let me choose someone better?"The hand holding mine clenched tightly, only to release a moment later, cautious, as if afraid of hurting me.And just like that, I had my answer."Yeah." Liam let out a low, bitter chuckle. "I really am selfish.""And what’s wrong with that?"I shifted, straddling him, my gaze locked onto his."Love is selfish by nature. Or are you planning to let go of me again, just like two years ago? To stand by and watch while I get hurt all over again?"His body went rigid beneath my touch.His breath hitched. "Never!""Then don’t let go of me."A lump formed in my throat, my voice softening."Liam, this time, let me stay with you, okay? You’re just sick. That’s all. There’s nothing wrong with that."People get sick. You just need to eat well, rest properly, take your meds, and follow treatment. Everything will be okay."I held him tightly and only then did I realize how deeply the fear had settled in

"I want to buy out the Reid family."He let out a low chuckle. "That can be arranged.""And what about you?"I didn’t slow down. If anything, I was rough, almost merciless. My tone dripped with mockery."Are you going to waste away here, drowning in your own pleasure until it kills you? Then, let them find your rotting corpse when the stench gets too strong?"Liam took it all, calm and indulgent, his restraint unwavering until the pleasure became too much. Only then did his body tense, arching slightly, as if trying to temper the sensation.He laughed. "Monsters should have disgraceful deaths."He was smiling more than ever lately.And I hated it."Who the hell called you a monster?"My grip tightened. "Mr. Lee? Someone from the Reid family? Or was it you?"Liam said nothing."No one gets to call you a monster. Not now. Not ever."I let go and reached for his hand, lacing my fingers through his.Palm to palm, slick with sweat, sticky and warm.I bared my teeth, voice sharp with prom

Nathaniel’s throat bobbed as he swallowed hard. His bloodshot eyes burned with emotion, but it took him a long moment before he finally muttered, barely above a whisper, "I’m not." "Right. Keep telling yourself that." I had no patience to comfort a lost little boy. Instead, I asked abruptly, "You know where Liam is." It wasn’t a question. Nathaniel’s entire body tensed. I let out a slow smirk, my tone dripping with mockery. "Did you really think you escaped the hospital all on your own? That you just happened to find me so easily? “That you’re standing here, completely unharmed, conveniently playing me videos of Liam in a treatment center and spilling his past like it was all your idea?"For a brief moment, something inside me almost felt sorry for him. Almost. But not quite. "W-what do you mean?" Nathaniel’s breathing turned ragged. Pain drained the color from his face as he hunched forward, his elbows digging into his knees just to keep himself from collaps
I Fell in Love with a Monster Chapter 19
In the end, his kiss remained controlled and restrained. Life went on after Liam left for his trip abroad. I was busy dealing with the illegitimate son my father had forced into the company, while Liam was, according to him, "earning his dowry." We talked every day. Liam had a keen eye, spotting the weaknesses in my proposals with ease before walking me through, step by step, how to navigate a boardroom full of seasoned sharks.I was learning fast. Yet, he never mentioned when he would be back. Maybe he really was just busy. I told myself that, convincing myself it was fine. I even thought about flying over to surprise him when I had the time. But before I could, Nathaniel beat me to it, escaping from the hospital first. His leg hadn’t even healed yet. He looked like a mess. "I wasn’t lying, Naomi," he said quietly, staring at me. "Liam really is sick." …Nathaniel showed me a video. A vacant room, stripped of everything. Liam stood silently by the windo

In the past, Liam would sulk over something as trivial as how I addressed him. I sighed, rubbing my temples. "I borrowed it from a friend to use as a pattern. Who knew my mom would mistake it for something I made and send it off?" But as I said it, a chill settled over me. I knew exactly what my mom was thinking. She had no idea about the agreement between my father and me. She just believed that if I reconciled with Nathaniel, my father would be happy. She was willing to sacrifice her own daughter’s happiness just to please a man who never loved her. Liam seemed to piece it all together as well. His grip on my hand tightened unconsciously, his voice low with guilt and pain. "I'm sorry." I shot him a glare. "We’ll deal with this later." With my goal accomplished, there was no need to stick around and watch the rest of this farce. I took Liam’s hand and turned to leave, but just as I pushed the door open, Nathaniel's voice stopped me. "You have terrible taste i

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath."Nathaniel, you—"A sudden ringtone cut me off.It also interrupted Nathaniel’s childish attempt to punish me.Noticing the redness in my eyes from the pain, he seemed to regain some sense of reason.His grip loosened slightly but he still didn’t let go.Unab

To the Lane family, my only worth lay in marriage. The man suddenly fell silent. "You can’t even lie to make me feel better?" Feeling angry, I kicked at his shoulder and chest, but it only made me more frustrated. "Why are you so damn hard? Are you hiding metal plates under your skin?" The
I Fell in Love with a Monster Chapter 6
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of something light blue on Liam’s wrist. It was a hair tie. The kind a young woman might use—completely out of place next to the luxury watch worth millions beside it. I froze for a moment before quickly looking away, pretending not to notice.

“Well, look who finally has time to join us.” Liam shifted his gaze away, responding with a calm “Mm” before reaching for a cue stick. “Care for a game?” “Wouldn’t miss it.” As he passed by, Liam gave me a slight nod, nothing more than a polite acknowledgment. I let out a quiet breath, gue
