Touch Me, but Don't Kiss Me Chapter 13
Ever since we parted at the hotel, it had been a year since I last saw Raymond. He still looked as dashing as ever, though he seemed slightly nervous. "Sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you," he said. "I just heard you'd be coming today, so I thought I'd come see you."His eyes, filled with longing, were glued to my face, as if he were trying to memorize my features. "Adeline, I've missed you. When we first separated, I thought time could heal everything. And that I'd still have the chance to get back together with you."Once, I even thought about using my father's power to force you into marriage. But how would that make me any different from Cora?"Seeing you becoming more radiant and liberated day by day, I finally realized you don't belong to me. You belong to yourself. "Someone like me isn't worth turning back to."While he was still wallowing in his sorrow, I handed him a card. "This is all you spent on me when we were still together."Back when I started dating him,

After I became famous, I was still a star even at Lycanshire University. Not long after, my brothers who once kicked me out of the house suddenly showed up, hoping I'd come home with them. Mom, who'd vanished without a trace for years, also reached out to me, saying she wanted to introduce me to a suitable marriage prospect. Without thinking twice, I blocked them all. When I was struggling and desperate, they either abandoned me or trampled all over me. Now that I was doing well, it was absurd of them to think they could just slither their way back into my life.Did they really think I was some fool waiting to be used?Enraged, my brothers tried threatening me. "Send us money right now, or we'll go to the reporters and tell them how you turned your back on your family after becoming famous. Let's see how you'll sell your courses if your reputation is ruined!"But I wasn't afraid of their threats. Every one of them was rotten to the core. I warned them that if I so much a

Raymond shook his head in disbelief. "I had no idea.""Of course, I knew you had nothing to do with this," I said. He perked up, as if a spark of hope in him had been reignited. But I didn't give him a chance."Yet you agreed to help her ruin me, didn't you?" I continued, shattering his hope. "You're just as shameless as she is!"Ignoring his pale expression, I added, "Cora's right. I just wanted to get back at her. Why should the victim have to live with their trauma for the rest of their lives while the bully thrives? "I want to take away everything that means something to her—her grades, her boyfriend, and her future. "Has it ever crossed her mind that every single injury she left on my body will serve as evidence for me to throw her in jail?"I sighed. "Raymond, I pity you. You're nothing but a tool I've used to get back at her."He'd been so protected that he couldn't even imagine the kind of abuse I'd been enduring. "Adeline, did you never have feelings for me?""

Cora had started bullying me ages ago—way before I met Raymond.Since the first exam after my transfer to this school, Cora had cornered me in the toilet, her lackeys in tow. She shoved my head into the toilet bowl, snarling, "So you stole my number spot away from me, huh? It's all your fault I got scolded by Dad! Do you even know who I am?"You're just a werewolf with a lowly bloodline. How dare you steal my spotlight? The toilet water will make you come back to your senses."But I wasn't a useless werewolf who would just put up with such treatment. I immediately reported Cora to the teacher, only to be led to the principal's office. Mr. Knightley shot me a disdainful look. "Ms. Thorne, are you saying my dear daughter is bullying you? That's impossible. She's always been sensible."I heard your father's a criminal, and your mother's a prostitute. Being able to study here is no easy feat for you, right?"I know kids your age are desperate for attention, but it's not good to li

The moment Raymond's gaze landed on my chest, his breath hitched. "What happened? Who did this to you?"I ran my fingers across my scars. "This, you mean?"I continued, "These are the cigarette burns the love of your life left on me. Or are you asking about this?"She carved the word 'slut' into my skin with a penknife. She said I was born one, so it's only right for her to remind me of my identity."Raymond and I had slept together countless times, but I had never allowed him to turn on the lights. I even kept my shirt on. This was the first time he saw the scars on my body. His mind went blank. He clearly didn't want to hear any more details, but I didn't stop. "Those are nothing," I said, guiding his hand to my back. As soon as he sensed the jagged ridges on my skin, he flinched. "Every single one of these burns was made by Cora with a curling iron. 13 in total," I said. "She said it was the only way to make sure I remembered the pain, and my place.""Why… Why did s

Since the day the admission results came out, Raymond had been calling me nonstop. But I didn't have time to deal with him. I was busy managing my online account. I had to make the most of the exposure the incident brought me, turning all that attention into profit. I started sharing study tips on my page, and for a small fee, people could purchase access to all of my study notes. Through knowledge-based content, I was raking in money.Soon, I began landing the right brand deals and building my personal brand, getting more and more people to know who I was. With this positive momentum, my influence and income kept rising. As usual, I declined Raymond's call. Moments later, several messages came in. "Adeline, today's my birthday. Can you come celebrate with me?"The doorbell suddenly rang. I opened the door, only to see a hotel keycard on the floor. It instantly reminded me of the card I once gave him a year ago. It felt like deja vu—but this time, the tables had turne
