Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: Filled With Fear of This Man

The next second, he shifted his gaze awkwardly, grunting unhappily.

"Summer Shawcross, if you can't explain this, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and gripped her chin again, his eyes cold and sharp.

"Did they touch you?" He moved his thin lips, asking her with an icy voice.

"What?" Summer Shawcross was completely bewildered by his words, looking at him in astonishment, only to be startled by his current appearance.

The man's black eyes were fixed on her, as if his gaze could swallow her whole.

"Don't play dumb with me. Did you run away from the wedding this time for those three actors?" Noah Drexler looked at her coldly, questioning her word by word.

"..." Just as Summer was in shock, the man's anger-tinged voice continued to ring out loudly.

"You think getting on the headlines will provoke me to divorce you?!"

At this moment, Summer's mind was even more in a daze... this scene, including what he said, was all so familiar to her.

Because everything she's experiencing now is exactly the same as five years ago.

When she was twenty, he forced her to marry him. At that time, she was filled with fear and hatred for this man...

So, on the night of the wedding, she drugged his wine glass and ran away at all costs. The next day, she appeared on the front page with three young celebrities, viciously humiliating him.

Unfortunately... in less than a day, she was caught by his people and brought back. From then on, she lost all her freedom.

On the same day, her brother had an accident, and she always thought it was his doing.

Since then, she hated him even more, committed many wrongs... causing not only her demise but his as well.

Recalling those past events, Summer's emotions became incomparably complex.

She clearly died, yet now she has come back to life and is experiencing what she once went through...

Which means, she has returned to when she was twenty?

Her stunned and silent appearance made Noah Drexler somewhat displeased.

"Answer me, where did those damn guys touch you?"

As Summer was lost in thought, the man's angry voice sounded in her ear again.

"Uh..." The pressure on her chin suddenly increased, and Summer bit her lip in mild pain.

Noah Drexler's aura was formidable; just one question from him made Summer's heart tremble.

This was one of the reasons why she used to dislike him so much—this man was overbearing and domineering, seemed like a freak to her.

But at this moment, thinking of how he stayed by her side till death before, she couldn't find it in her to hate him anymore.

Before dying, she had vowed that if given the chance, she would make up for everything...

Seeing her unwillingness to respond, Noah Drexler frowned with displeasure, his expression turning frosty.

Summer, bewildered, looked up at him, only to realize that the man's gaze was fixed tightly on her lips.

"Did those guys kiss you?" He tightly pressed his thin lips, asking her with suppressed anger, his handsome face exuding a terrifying aura.

As if as long as she dared to nod, he would kill her on the spot.

But she knew he would never hurt her.

She didn't understand this before, so she was filled with fear and dislike towards him.
