A Journey from Bitterness to Truth (Matilda and Yvan) novel Chapter 212

Yvan felt as if his heart was being excavated with every word Matilda uttered, his voice quivering, "Matilda, do you really have to be this way?"

She didn't even give him a chance to apologize!

Matilda laughed, a light retort from her lips slicing through Yvan's heart like a knife, "Yvan, do you honestly think I'm still hanging on your every excuse?"

Yvan froze, his soul shaking as if struck by a sledgehammer.

"Forget about saying sorry, the past doesn't come with an 'I'm sorry' card, Yvan. What you did to me is way past the point of being fixed by a simple apology!"

Her final sentence was almost a roar, her whole body trembling violently.

As tears made their way down her cheeks, Matilda realized her heart had truly died. The man she once loved now stood before her, and she felt nothing but sorrow, not a flicker of emotion.

Oh, Yvan, what have you done with the woman who once loved you so dearly?

Wiping away her tears, Matilda said, "Go now, Logan's still sleeping, and I don't want to wake him."

"Matilda..." Yvan panicked. He had never seen her like this, her entire being radiating hate towards him. She didn't even want his apology; she would never forgive him!

At some point, hate becomes so deep that even 'I'm sorry' loses its meaning.

Matilda pointed towards the door, her voice softening, "Yvan, just go. We have nothing to do with each other anymore."

Yvan looked at the woman before him. She seemed fragile and powerless, yet she was hysterically refusing him. She had told him more than once to get lost, to vanish from her sight, but how could Yvan just comply? The woman who had loved him so profoundly five years ago was now cutting ties without a second thought. Had she even considered his feelings? She, Matilda, had no right to break it off like this!

Instead, he stepped forward and grabbed her hand.
