Chapter 374 "Arden, I admit I was terrified when I first met you," Linda said, her voice calm but cautious. "Throughout my life, I had never seen anyone like you. But the things I said back then cfrom the heart" Linda was worried. She feared Arden might do something reckless. She couldn't be certain if Samson had realized she was missing or if he had started looking for her. In the face of the unknown, she could only protect herself and try to stay unharmed. "Arden, I was scared of you back then because the scars on your face were frightening. But you also savedthat day. I wandered onto a deserted road by accident, and you were theone who broughtback.

"If you need help with something, you can tell me. All I want is for you not to go down a path you'll regret," she spoke gently, like she was talking to a child. Arden suddenly smiled. surviving the "Linda, I don't want anything complicated. All I want is you." H "I've spent all these years trying to find someone like you. Someone who wouldn't care about my appearance and could see I'm a good person. Someone to share my life with. But I never found anyone like that. Every woman who sees my face recoils in horror "They all say the sthing. "Arden, someone like you shouldn't even dream of finding a partner. With a face like that, no woman will ever want to be with you. You should just focus on making money and taking care of yourself." "Words like that pusheddeeper into despair. Every tI heard them, I couldn't respond because it was the truth. These days, if your face isn't flawless, it doesn't matter what you do. Nothing else counts." Arden wasn't a bad person. But his experiences had changed him. He could no longer accept his appearance. "Arden, you must understand that there's no future for us," Linda said carefully. "And it's not just because I'm married now. It's true. I never judged you for your looks. But just like the other women, I can't force myself to feel something for you because of it." Arden suddenly snapped. He jumped up, grabbing Linda. He tried to pull her toward him.
She fumbled for the lamp on the bedside table and swung it hard at him.
"I'm warning you," she said, her voice steady but tience. "Don't try anything with me. If something happens to me, you'll pay dearly for it." "Do you really think they'll find you here?" he asked with eerie confidence as if convinced that no one could locate her unless he allowed it. No one could rescue her unless he decided to let her go "Linda, I've cto realize something. Instead of hoping someone might fall in love with you one day, it's better to just keep someone close, even if it means you you must force her "It's okay if you don't love me. I love you, and that's enough. As long as you're here with me, and a little light shines in my dark world, that's all I need. I don't need anything else and don't expect it, either." He sounded like a desperate man who had run out of options.
