The Millennium Princess Consort

Smack! A sharp slap left a clear handprint on her smooth, fair cheek.

"You vile woman! How dare you harm my child!" His gaze was as fierce as a wolf's as he glowered at her.

Her heart shattered into a thousand pieces, yet a breathtaking smile appeared on her face.

In a soft voice, she heard herself ask, "Do you really believe I did this? Do you?"

A hint of doubt flashed in the man's eyes. The woman in his arms trembled, and her quiet sobs unsettled him.

He gently rubbed the back of the woman in his arms. His reply was stiff and icy. "Who else would dare hurt her? And who else could possibly do it?"

Every word of his poisonous accusation flew straight and sharp toward her. She could barely stay on her feet. Fighting back the pain inside, she whispered, almost inaudibly, "You'll regret this."

"No, Yue'er, please, give me one more chance. Believe me." He lowered his proud head and approached her step by trembling step.

A mocking smile played on her lips, her voice as cold as a blade. "Believe you? Why should I? What were you doing when I was desperate for you to believe me? In this life and the next, I'll never believe you again, and I'll never forgive you!"

The man's steps halted abruptly. His heart ached so badly he could hardly breathe. At last, he understood how much pain she must have felt back then.

But what did understanding change? Some people and some things, once lost, are lost forever.
