Even so, he wondered how I could be so heartless. He was just obsessed with the past, just pitying Nina. How could I erase my identity and completely disappear from his world?

"Trey, are you questioning my sincerity?" Angela's body trembled. The tear clinging to the corner of her eye looked almost mocking. She had given so much, yet he still didn't believe her? "You're not her." Trey's lips curled upward, and in that instant, Angela's expression changed. "What did you say?" "I said you deceived me for a full ten years. Haven't you acted long enough?"
