Before Robin could even finish his explanation , Elena cut him off impatiently , Thats enough . Theres no point in saying meaningless things anymore . I used to long for the day you both would like me too , but now , I have the love of many others . I dont need yours anymore . She was about to continue speaking when , all of a sudden , a billboard overhead broke loose and came crashing down toward her . Elena ! Mommy ! Both Robin and Kane shouted in alarm and lunged toward her at the same time in a flash . Elena had only taken a step back in time to avoid it . She was completely unscathed but Robin wasnt as lucky . The billboard struck his shoulder , tearing straight through it . Blood streamed down his arm , soaking through his shirt . He sucked in a breath from the pain , but forced himself to stay upright . He refused to utter a single complaint . Instead , his first instinct was to check on her . Elena , are you alright ? Are you hurt anywhere ? Kane hovered beside her , frantically scanning for any injuries . Mommy , please be okay ! Now that they were risking their lives for her , one might expect Elena to feel moved but instead , she only found it laughably ironic . Robin , youre the one who needs a hospital . Her voice was icy cold , showing no intention of sending him to the hospital . I dont need either of you getting hurt for my sake . What I didnt get before , I dont want it now either . Youre not doing this because you love me youre just not used to being without me . Sooner or later , therell be another woman to take care of you , to dote on you . Youll get used to it . I have no intention of going back to you . I wont make the same mistake again . Just let me go . With that , Elena turned around without hesitation and walked away , leaving Robin and Kane behind . She no longer wanted to be entangled in anything meaningless . She especially didnt want to owe them anything . Even if they hadnt jumped in to shield her , she might not have been hurt . And even if she had , it wouldve been her own bad luck . It was no one elses fault . She didnt need their help .. Robin clutched his bleeding shoulder tightly as he watched Elena walk away . His lips turned pale from the blood loss , but what hurt more than his body was the sharp , twisting pain in his chest . It was cutting him like a blade . Kane also sobbed silently behind him . Elena truly didnt want them anymore . Robin bit down hard on his lip , a wild thought suddenly flashing through his mind . Ignoring the pain from his injury , he took large strides to catch up with her . He seized both of Elenas hands and pinned her against the wall . Without a word , he kissed her desperately and frantically , biting and pressing his lips against hers in utter chaos . In the brief moment between breaths , his hoatse voice murmured beside her ear , Elena , me , yell at me , hate me and Kane if you must but dont leave us ! Therell be no other woman . We only want you ! hit His voice carried deep , crushing sorrow . Elena could even feel a few warm , damp tears fall into the curve of her neck . Was Robin crying ? She never would have imagined that one day , Robin would break down and show weakness in front of her . His lips and tongue still ravaged hers , trying to steal her breath and reason , trying to pull her back in . He knew exactly what he was doing . He was good at this too good . But even as he kissed her , Elenas mind wasnt clouded with longing . All she could think of were the hickeys on his body marks left by Constance . A wave of revulsion surged from deep inside her . She shoved him away with all her strength and bit down hard on his lip . Let go of me ! The taste of blood spread through her mouth . Elena turned aside , gagging from nausea . She looked at Robin warily . Dont touch me ! Theres nothing between us anymore . Try that again , and Ill call the police ! way Robins eyes filled with hurt . Elena … Cant we really go back to the way we were ? We were so happy before . Well give you whatever you and your mother want . Theres no going back , Robin . My mom and I just want one thing now for you both to leave and never come back . She rejected him without hesitation and turned to walk away , Chapter 22 I already called an ambulance for your injury . Dont follow me again . Robin stood rooted to the spot , feeling completely hollowed out . Act Fast Free Bonus Time is Running Out !
