Chapter 11 Chapter 11 I had accumulated years of memories in this penthouse , but in the end , what mattered fit into one suitcase . The rooms were filled with expensive things Adrian had bought after regaining his memory designer clothes , jewelry , furniture . None of it held traces of Rain , of the man whod made paper flowers because we couldnt afford real ones . Travel light to go far , I whispered , touching the rough wooden box Rain had made for me one last time . Everything here screamed of Adrians need to erase our simple past with expensive replacements. I was leaving it all behind both the man whod loved me and the one whod forgotten how . Adrian was waiting in the living room when I emerged , his eyes locking onto my single suitcase . Something frantic flickered behind his practiced coldness . Most of my things are staying , I said quietly . You can throw them out if theyre in the way . I meant it practically Sophia would need the space but something dangerous flashed across his face . He laughed , the sound hollow and sharp . What the fuck is this now ? The check didnt work , so youre pulling this runaway bullshit ? His voice cracked slightly , betraying the panic beneath his rage . How long is this supposed to last ? Three days ? Ten ? Until I come begging like some fucking idiot ? I wouldnt be coming back at all . This wasnt just leaving Adrian I was finally letting Rain go too . But telling him now would ruin everything , so I stayed silent , wheeling my suitcase toward the door . The crystal tumbler exploded at my feet , alcohol and glass spraying across the floor . For fucks sake , Riley , Adrians voice shook with barely contained fury , but his eyes were red rimmed , desperate . You walk out that fucking door , were done . No more games , no more chances . I wont keep dealing with your emotional bullshit . You want to leave ? Fine . But dont you dare come crawling back . I stepped over the shattered glass without looking back . Each step took me further from both of them the gentle soul whod saved me and the cold stranger whod replaced him . Behind me , I heard more crashes Adrians composure shattering like the objects he was destroying . The sounds followed me to the elevator , each crash a reminder of the two men I was leaving behind- Rain , whod died in that accident three years ago , and Adrian Chase , whod risen from those ashes to break my heart . 15:42 T1 Champion !
