Chapter 418 Besides You, | Won't Like Any Other Woman
Upon hearing Audrey’s words, Sterling’s face darkened and his jawline tightened abruptly.
The atmosphere in the carriage had become so cold that it could scrape off a layer of frost.
The driver dared not take a breath in front.
Sterling tightly pursed his thin lips and red silent for a long time.
He didn’t expect that she could easily say it's over!
Her love and hate, so vivid, so intense!
Sterling looked into Audrey’s eyes, deep and dark like a night sky without stars, so black that no light could penetrate. “Can you say that again?”
After Audrey said those words, the suppressed emotions in her heart instantly reached their peak.
She didn’t want to say it again.
She wanted to get off the car immediately, otherwise, if she stayed in the carriage with him, she didn’t know what she would do. Audrey went to push the cart door, but the door was locked.
Audrey asked the driver to unlock the door, but the driver glanced at Sterling and didn’t dare to unlock it.

Audrey was very angry and she picked up her bag and hit the car door, shouting, “Unlock!”
Sterling went to hold Audrey’s hand, but ended up getting hit by her bag instead.
The metal chain on the package scraped against his temple, leaving a cut with fresh red blood seeping out.
The driver looked ahead with fear, secretly sweating for Audrey.
Audrey might be the only one who dared to treat the cold—-faced young master of the Howard family like this in the past!
Sterling furrowed his brows tighter, ignoring the injured temple of his hairline. He extended his long arm and forcefully pulled Audrey into his embrace.
He exerted a great force, but Audrey stubbornly refused to be pulled into his arms. As a result, his strength overwhelmed her, and in that instant when she was pulled into his embrace, her anger ignited like a wildfire, threatening to consume her completely.
“Sterling, let go of me!”
She struggled desperately in his arms, unable to break free, and then she hit him with her bag.
The metal chain hit him, it should have been painful, but he remained silent.
The large hand pressed against her waist, exerting more force.
Audrey was being choked by him to the point where she could hardly breathe. Slowly, she ceased struggling and pounding. Sterling looked down at the girl in his arms. Her fair face had turned

bright red from the intense emotions, and her lowered eyelashes trembled like injured butterfly wings. Her lips were tightly pursed, exuding a hint of coldness.
Sterling saw her calm down a lot after venting her emotions, he released his hands that were clasped around her slender waist, and took out a cigarette from his pocket.
“| smoked a cigarette.”
Audrey did not speak.
The driver, upon seeing this, sensibly got off the car.
Audrey leaned towards the car window and looked at Sterling with an extremely cold expression.
But deep down inside, it wasn’t as indifferent as it appeared on the surface.
Sterling was someone she gave her heart to, she entrusted him with her most precious body and soul. No matter how smart and wise she usually is, when it comes to emotions, she is just a little girl.
The little girl’s emotions were pure and passionate. She hoped for a lifetime with one person.
He was unwilling to share himself with anyone.
If he couldn't do it, she would rather leave.
It was not easy for her to be with him, with ups and downs, but she cherished the time they spent together. Facing her mother, she could bravely stand her ground. She truly

didn’t want their relationship to be just a fleeting moment.
No matter how angry she got or how heartless her words were, it was all about her caring for him. She hoped that he could give her a reasonable explanation instead of being perfunctory and deceitful! Sterling lit a cigarette, squinting his dark narrow eyes, and exhaled a puff of smoke.
Alow, hoarse voice slowly resounded.
“When | was a child, after being abused and tormented by that woman, | went through a period of being very withdrawn. | felt scared whenever | saw adults, especially women.”
“The foreign caretaker who took care of me had to dismiss all the adult maids and brought in ten-year-old Anika.”
“Anika’s family was in difficult circumstances, so she secretly followed the villagers abroad to work and earn money to support her grandmother and younger sister. Although she was young, she was skilled in cooking and could handle various household chores very well.”
“She was relatively small in stature and had short hair, which led me to mistakenly believe that she was a boy.”
“She took care of my daily life, studied with me, and went out to play with me on weekends. She was an important companion during the dark times of my childhood.”
“When | was nine years old, my father took me and her to Nordol for a trip. That day, my father went to meet a client, and she and | went out to play alone. Unexpectedly, an earthquake occurred, and she and | were buried in the rubble. It took forty-eight hours for the rescue team

to find us. During that time, | was thirsty and hungry. It was she who bit her finger and dropped blood into my mouth, which saved my life.”
“To me, she was a sister, a family member, and also a benefactor!”
“Four years ago, she got married, and | returned to my country. Later, something happened, and | was taken to Cloud City by Corbin’s father. | haven't been in touch with her all these years.”
“On the way to pick you up at the airport today, | happened to see her being punched and kicked by someone. | couldn’t just stand by and watch, so | drove that man away and took her to the hospital.”
“She has a strong personality and didn’t want me to see her vulnerable side. When we arrived at the hospital, she secretly ran away while | went to pay. What you saw was probably the scene of me looking for her after she ran away.”
“She was hit and suffered a cerebral hemorrhage. The situation is quite serious, and she needs to be hospitalized for recuperation!”
Audrey was shocked to hear Sterling’s words.
Originally, in his life, it wasn’t just her who treated him well, there were people who treated him even better than her! His explanation was reasonable, and she couldn't find any faults with
him.
No flesh-and-blood person with emotions and morals could possibly stand by and do nothing!
Audrey looked at his tightly drawn face and furrowed her brows as she asked, “Is she the important sister you mentioned earlier?”
Sterling nodded and said, “Yes.”

Audrey lowered her thick, long cyelashes, feeling a mixture of emotions in her heart. Sterling explained to her clearly, and she should not doubt anything
anymore.
However, there was still a slight bitterness in my heart.
“In your heart, am | the kind of person who is unreasonable and illogical?” Audrey sniffed, her voice muffled. “If | didn’t cause trouble for you, would you still continue to hide things from me?”This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
Sterling saw a faint blush in Audrey's deer-like eyes. He reached out with his long hand and held her delicate small hand. His voice was low as he said, “I plan to take care of her matters first and then come to explain to you in the evening. Who would have thought that you would go find the young meat first.”
Audrey pulled her hand back from his grasp and forcefully slapped his hand back, saying, “That’s because you made me angry!” She really showed no mercy at all, and her blows left his hand back bright red.
He was not annoyed either, his deep black eyes staring at her, “Do you think the little fresh meat is handsome? Fragile and unable to
withstand a punch from me!”
Audrey glared at him angrily and said, “You are so narcissistic!”
Sterling chuckled and his large hand wrapped around Audrey’s slender waist. With a slight force, he pulled her onto his lap. “Don't be angry, okay? | said, besides you, | won't like any other woman.”
His thin lips pressed against her ear as he spoke, a cool and scorching
