Rebirth and Finding the One Truly Loves Me by Christina
Chapter 389

Chapter 389 Fear from the Depths of the Soul

Sterling stood in front of Audrey, gazing at her fair and delicate face. He gently lifted her chin with his slender fingers and asked, “What guilty secret have you done to make you so afraid?”

Audrey held her fingers under her chin, gently clasping them in her palm, and whispered. “Kelsey almost harmed Grandma Gao. When Colton took her away. Elise gave me a fierce glare, and I thought she had sent someone to retaliate against me!”

Sterling’s sharp contours became slightly cold as he muttered, “She dared?!”

Audrey looked at a man who was angry and had a cold and

intimidating aura that made people hesitant to offend him. Her heart felt warm and sweet. She approached him, wrapped her arms around his lean and muscular waist, and buried her small face in his broad chest. “But she knows about our relationship now, so she probably won’t dare to harm me easily.”

Given Colton’s attention to Mrs. Gao, he probably wouldn’t easily let. Kelsey go either.

Kelsey’s later life, I’m afraid, would not be good!

The people who she hated to the bone in her past life, one after another, all fell down.

No, there is one more important one.

The mysterious man.

In her past life, she didn’t know who that person was. In this life, that

person hasn’t shown any trace, leaving her with no clues to find him!

But the existence of this person was a hidden disaster!

She was in the light, he was in the dark!

If he made a move, she wouldn’t know how to respond.

This winter vacation, she went back to Cloud City to visit Corbin in prison, hoping to hear something from his mouth.

Sterling looked down at the girl nestled in his arms. Her thick and slender eyelashes trembled gently, and there was a somewhat absent- minded expression on her face, as if she was lost in thought.

Sterling h ooked Audrey’s chin again. lowered his head, and brought his handsome face closer to hers. “What are you thinking?”

“Corbin…” Audrey replied. following Sterling’s words, but she didn’t finish her sentence. realizing what she had said, she abruptly stopped speaking

The slender finger that was h ooked on her chin suddenly increased its pressure and turned into pinching her chin.

The handsome face, which was close at hand, darkened at a visible speed.

Audrey felt the air around her drop several degrees. She shrank her n*eck and blinked her watery clear eyes at him twice, “I was thinking, if Kelsey is sent to prison by the Gao family, just like Corbin, her life will be tainted and she won’t be able to be a witch anymore!”

Sterling squinted his dark and deep narrow eyes, clearly sensing that Audrey had made up an excuse to deceive him.

“In my arms, I thought about Corbin, I really wanted to squeeze you to

death!”

His big hand, pinching on her chin. indeed increased a bit of strength.

Audrey pouted her rosy l*ps and said. “It hurts.”

The voice was tender and soft, like a catalyst that made his heart sk ip a beat, even the toughest steel would turn into a gentle touch.

Sterling slid his hand up and down Audrey’s throat. forcefully pressing her against the wall. He lifted her chin and passionately captured her l*ps.

Audrey felt a little guilty, obediently letting him k*ss her.

The dim yellow light from the street lamp shone on the two of them, as the slender girl was held in the embrace of the tall man and k*ssed. The scene had an indescribable beauty and charm.

He didn’t release her until she was almost out of breath.

The deer’s eyes were watery, as if they contained a pool of spring water, pure and harmless, making people want to ruthlessly ravage them!

Sterling looked at the flickering crimson flames in her eyes. tightly gripping her slender waist. “I f ucking can’t stay with you any longer!”

Sooner or later, I would have made myself sick!

Audrey looked at him with a restrained and suppressed expression, feeling mixture of pity and amusement.

“Then why did you keep k*ssing me?”

“Do you think we should have a platonic love?” Sterling raised an eyebrow. “I’m not that great, in front of you, I just want to be a fierce

beast.”

Audrey burst into laughter and was about to say something when she suddenly heard a noise coming from the unit door.

Turning back. Hannah was holding the garbage, unsure whether to come out and throw it away or continue hiding inside while watching the two people abusing the dog.

Audrey quickly pushed Sterling away, pursed her l*ps, and awkwardly coughed. “Hannah, did you throw away the trash?”

Hannah pushed open the unit door and walked out, covering her eyes. “You guys carry on. I’ll pretend I didn’t see anything.”

Audrey dared not continue to cozy up to Sterling anymore. She reached out and pushed his tall figure. “You broke off the engagement with Ms. Goodwin today. I’m sure your grandfather already knows. You’ll have to explain it to him when you go back, won’t you?”

Sterling nodded.

“Then you hurry up and leave!”

Audrey pushed Sterling towards the car.

Sterling held her hand and gave it a squeeze in his palm. “Any plans for the winter break?”

“I planned to return to Cloud City in two days.”

Sterling pondered for a moment and nodded, “I have some free time tomorrow. I’ll take you skiing.”

“Okay”

Sterling lowered his head and k*ssed Audrey on the l*ps, then patted

her head with his big hand. “Go inside!”

After Audrey entered the apartment building. Sterling got on the car.

Faintly, the sound of Audrey and Hannah playing and joking could still be heard.

He couldn’t help but curl his l*ps.

Half an hour later. Sterling drove back to the Howard family’s old

mansion.

As he expected, the old house was brightly lit.

The butler waited at the door and, upon seeing him return. approached him cautiously and said, “Young master, you have finally returned.”

Sterling’s face turned cold as he made a sound of agreement, and he strode towards the villa with his long legs.

Walking into the villa, Sterling took off his coat and handed it to the butler behind him.

Just a few steps into the living room, the tall and stern figure suddenly froze.

In the living room. Ricky was not alone. There was a figure that was like a nightmare to him.

The woman sitting in the wheelchair was thin and had short, neatly styled hair tucked behind her ears. She was wearing a Chanel suit, and her well-maintained face hinted at her youthful beauty in the past.

As Sterling walked into the living room, she lifted her clear and cold eyes and looked at him.

Chapter 389 Fear from the Depths

The moment Sterling caught her gaze, he, who was always fearless. trembled uncontrollably.

It was a fear and panic that came from the depths of the soul.

Gianna’s gaze was neither good nor evil. She silently watched Sterling, who she hadn’t seen in a long time, and assessed him without showing any emotions. However, there was no warmth in her eyes.

Sterling glanced at her for a moment and then averted his dark, mysterious eyes.

He looked at Ricky on the sofa and spoke in a low, h oa rse voice. “Let’s go to the study.” Without greeting the woman, it was obvious that he didn’t want to say a word to her.

Ricky looked at the mother and son, whose relationship seemed even worse than that of strangers. He furrowed his brows slightly and said. “Your mother is back, don’t you want to say hello to her?”

Sterling didn’t have time to say anything before he heard the woman’s voice speak coldly. “He doesn’t want to shout, there’s no need to force him. You two go talk if you have something to discuss. I’ll be staying for a while, there’s no rush.”

Upon hearing the woman’s words, Sterling’s hands hanging by his side. suddenly tightened.
