But Archie followed me, which I didn’t expect him to do at all. "Isabella, wait," he called after me, his voice filled with concern.I turned to him, my eyes brimming with tears. "I can't take this anymore, Archie," I choked out. “Isabella.” He whispered softly pulling me in for a hug as I sobbed loudly. “I can’t live like this anymore. Living in the shadow of my sister, letting her treat me anyhow. I have had enough of this.” I cried out. “I can’t take it anymore, I’m tired.”“It’s okay, let it out.

I have a girlfriend to look for.” Alan's eyes glinted with a cold determination as he stepped forward, his words dripping with venom.
