A Love Forgotten Novel by Webfic

But Grandma died when I was about ten.

Her death was quick.

In the hospital, she gave me this pair of emerald bracelets.

She had looked at me on the hospital bed, reluctant to part with me. She said, “Aria, I don’t have much to give you. I’ve been wearing these bracelets ever since was young. When you find someone you like, treat these bracelets as your wedding gift.”

I was choking with sobs.

On top of me, Elijah said, “Ariana, don’t leave. We’ll be okay.

I slapped him hard and glared at him. “We’ll never be okay! You tore Grandma’s photograph!” Trembling, I picked up the photograph as my tears continued to fall.

At that moment, the door opened, and Jocelyn looked at us on the bed in shock.

Her expression shifted. “Elijah, what are you doing?”

I took that chance to grab the bracelets from Elijah’s hand.

I was about to run outside, but Jocelyn blocked me. “You’re not allowed to leave.” She stared at the bracelets in my hand in suspicion..

I noticed the greed in her eyes and instinctively hid the bracelets behind me. My eyes were blood–red as ! growled, “Get out of my way.”

Perhaps Jocelyn was riled up because she dropped all pretense at that moment. She reached out to grab

what was mine.

However, I snapped and tried to hit her.

She shoved me. “That is not yours.”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

In a fury, I bit down on her wrist, and Jocelyn let go in a pained yelp.

At the next moment, my face was slapped with a loud smack“.

Jocelyn became sober and launched herself into Elijah’s arms. She tearfully complained, “She bit me. Elijah, I was just trying to get back what was yours.”

My face quickly became red and swollen, and I could taste rust in my mouth.

I glared daggers at Elijah, who was looking down at me “You hit me…”

Elijah stared at his palm. Suddenly, he coldly said, “Ariana, apologize.

“Apologize?” I wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth and looked at him with derision. “These bracelets are my grandma’s! Who does Jocelyn think she is? How dare she try to snatch them from me.”

He said dispassionately, “You hurt Jocelyn, so you need to apologize.”

I spat out a glob of bloody saliva.

Jocelyn shrieked. I’d aimed the spit at her.

Elijah’s expression shifted, and he raised his hand again.

However, I simply looked at him coldly as if he was my sworn enemy.

Reason overruled impulse, and he put his hand down and said, “You want to leave, right?” His voice suddenly became vile. “Ariana, if you want to leave here today, leave on your knees.”

While protecting Jocelyn, he blocked the bedroom door

Meanwhile, Jocelyn nestled in his arms and sneered at me. She must have felt elated that Elijah was humiliating me like this..

I said, “No. I’d rather die.”

Elijah grinned. “Fine.”

He then snatched a bracelet from my hand and threw it onto the ground.

Instantly, the bracelet broke into pieces.

I wanted to scream, but my voice wouldn’t come out.

Shattered.

It shattered… Grandma’s bracelet.

I fell to my knees with a “thud“.

My hands shook as I touched the emerald fragments.

It was gone. The memento Grandma left me.

No. I still had one.

I snapped out of my daze, yet Elijah had already snatched another bracelet.

He held up the other bracelet. His expression was frighteningly cold. “Apologize, then crawl out. I’ll let you leave then.”

I went berserk. “Elijah, do you even have a heart?”

Elijah seemed crazed as well. His expression was terribly unfamiliar.
