"Why should I suffer after being cheated on? Is it really enough for me to just let her leave empty-handed? Maybe that's just what they want so that they could play happy family while I lose everything. If that happens, I will lose both my pride and money."

Then he thought he would be able to get Laurie cheaply just like the way he got and user other girls. As she finished speaking, Laurie went back to her seat beautifully. James admired her every moves and concluded that she is really a beautiful lady. But he is a man of pride and he doesn't compliment, beg or persuade. He gets anything he wants forcefully and deceitfully. Then he plans on getting Laurie that way too.

he spoke, lightly tapping on her tear stained cheeks. “You don't want to believe that your love has deceived you,” he grinned, turning more barbaric. His choice of words ached her soul. He was confessing such brutal things to her with no shame or guilt. He was not looking guilty to confess that he had broken her soul with his betrayal and it hurt her beyond her endurance. “Then ask yourself whether Armando Zelvasco has deceived Flora Alfanso by showing himself as Easton Marzel in front of her or……she paused and thrusted her face closer to his.
