All too late for his love

As Willow spoke, she mustered all her strength and was about to jump off the cliff.

"Willow!" Zayn darted forward, trapping her in his arms. He couldn't stop shivering

"Let me go, Mr. Carter! I'm going to find Aaron! He said he's cold down there! I have to find him!"

"Willow, I'll get people to find that bas- Aaron! Don't do something stupid!"

"Stupid?" Willow chuckled, a self-deprecating glint in her eyes. "Living without Aaron is the stupid thing to do."

Gritting her teeth, she bolted forward. Despite her strenuous efforts, her attempts to break free from Zayn's grip were in vain.

"Let me go! Let me go!" Willow struggled frantically like a trapped animal Zayn's eyes turned bloodshot as he scooped her up. "Willow, I won't let you do something stupid!

"Willow, don't look for Aaron. I know it's my fault this time, but Skyler saved my life. I can't let her die. Willow, we can start anew as long as you're okay. Willow..."

Her calmness made his heart ache for her. "Willow..."

"Mr. Carter, please take me to Bordello," she said with a shuttered expression. She looked as if her soul had been drained out of her.

"Willow, Aaron-"

Willow interrupted him indifferently, "Mr. Carter, please at least have some conscience. Stop saying Aaron's name. He loathes it!"

Zayn's heart skipped a beat. He would've snapped her neck if she spoke to him like that back then. However, it was his fault this time. He fell silent

His Koenigsegg raced back to Bordello. Willow opened the door listlessly when they arrived. She' finally snapped back to her senses once she realized Zayn was about to enter.

She quickly stood in front of the door, blocking his path. Her tone was still as unsettlingly calm as she spoke as if nothing in this world mattered to her anymore. "Mr. Carter, please leave."

"Willow..."

Without giving him a chance to speak, she continued, "Mr. Carter, I know what you're concerned about. You're worried that I'll commit suicide.
