"I heard that she fell off the cliff and was cut by branches and stones, leaving her with wounds like
that."
"Anyway, it's really too bad. Such a beautiful face was wounded so severely!"
When she heard it, she could not help but touch the right side of her face. The skin, once fair and
smooth, was now left with crisscrossing wounds.
The door opened and Mark walked in. The doctor had just treated the wound on his back. His face
turned grim as he saw what Raine was doing.
Hearing footsteps, Raine looked up and saw him coming. Her lips tried to force out a smile. "You're
back n
It was just that, the smile was actually not very pleasant. She was trying too hard to fake it. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
"Yes..." With a soft reply from his thin lips, Mark sat down opposite her, his big hand brushing back the
hair that fell scattered on her cheek, and he said in a deep voice, "Stop smiling..."
With a slight shock, Raine stopped smiling and said," Mark, do I look terrible right now?" "No, you are
as beautiful as ever..." His voice was soft a
s the breeze.
"You are not at all good at deceiving people, or should I say, you never lie." Raine, still touching the
wounds o n her face, laughed at herself, "Look at my face now. How could I be beautiful?"
Mark's thin lips pressed tightly into a straight line and said nothing. His eyes stared at her deeply,
promising her, "They will pay the price!"
Raine nodded softly. Although there was pain in her heart, she did not show it on her face. Instead, she
gritted her teeth and bit her lip fiercely, leaving a deep mark on her lip. Her once beautiful face
remained only on the left side of her face.
Things had come to this. Even if they pay the price they deserve, so what?
Would it all come back to what it used to be?
Could her face and body ever return to what it used to be?
No, it would not! It was too late, all too late!
Although she wanted to calm down, she could not help feeling overwhelmed. She could not bear the
pain!
Raine stood up, walked up to Mark, and wrapped her arms around Mark’s strong waist.
This time Raine did not cry. She just clasped his waist in her hands, her cheek buried in his warm
chest.
Mark's tall and strong body stiffened, and Raine's dull and anguished voice came through. "Let me hug
you for a while...”
Mark did not say anything and did not push her away. His big hand landed on her back and gently
patted it.
That was what Summer saw as she stepped in. "Sorry t o interrupt.” She was so numb to it that she
could say i t calmly.
Hearing the voice, Mark looked over and saw her.
Raine loosened her grip on Mark, turned around, looked at Summer, and yelled, "Get out!"
She would never forget what had happened on that cliff!
Summer just stood there and did not move, ignoring Raine. Neither of them was in good condition and
there was no need to fight.
"I repeat, get out!” Raine's emotion was becoming increasingly agitated.
"I'm here for him, not for you. You don't have to get involved."
Raine became more and more agitated and furious. Her body had just improved a little for the last two
days, and now she was breathing furiously, felt dizzy, and her feet wobbled with hatred. "But I don't
want to see the woman who threw me off the cliff! Get out!
Now!"
Summer was still standing there, refusing to leave." Let me say what I have to say, and then I'll leave."
