---- Chapter 8 The next three days were the longest nightmare of Carleigh's life. She was pushed, insulted, and even deliberately tripped over, her knees bleeding profusely. No one tended to her wounds, no one gave her a sip of clean water. She curled up in the corner, gritting her teeth and counting the time. Three days later, she would be free. On the third evening, the iron gate finally opened. Keshawn stood at the doorway, backlit, and Carleigh couldn't make out his expression. He didn't feel a thing until he got closer, and then his heart trembled slightly: "What's going on?" Carleigh's clothes were so dirty that the original color couldn't be seen, her arms and knees were covered in bruises and scrapes, and there were dried bloodstains at the corners of her mouth. Haylee immediately took his arm and said softly, "Sister ---- must have deliberately hurt herself to gain sympathy." She shrugged, "Just being locked up for a few days, what could possibly happen?" Keshawn stared at Carleigh for a few seconds, then finally said coldly, "Carleigh, are you never going to stop?" Carleigh tugged at the corner of her mouth, not even having the energy to explain. After returning to the villa, Keshawn rarely did not leave immediately. He sat on the sofa and calmly announced, "In the future, I will accompany you on Mondays and Tuesdays, and spend the rest of the time with Haylee." Carleigh stood at the top of the stairs, silent. "Today is Wednesday, I should go and accompany her." He got up, picked up his coat, ''For the next few days, don't bother me." He walked to the door and added, "I will be back next Monday." Carleigh looked at him and said lightly, "Okay, goodbye." How ridiculous, he thought, "she would still wait for him ---- to come back?" Keshawn frowned, seeming somewhat surprised by her attitude, but ultimately said nothing and turned to leave. The moment the door closed, Carleigh's phone suddenly vibrated. "Ms. Ramos, your cancellation procedures have been completed." Carleigh stared at the message, her eyes moist, her heart pounding violently, almost bursting out of her chest. She was free. She immediately picked up the luggage that had already been packed, and left the villa without looking back. The airport. Her parents were already waiting for her at the boarding gate. When they saw her, Sadie tightly hugged her with tears in her eyes. "Good, it's all over." Carleigh nodded, her eyes also red. Yes, it's all over. ---- Six years ago on that snowy night, Keshawn knelt in front of her door, saying he wanted to "carve her into his life." And now, she has personally cut this name out of her life. When she was getting ready to board the plane, she took out her phone, removed the SIM card inside, and witha "click" sound, the SIM card broke into two pieces in her fingers. "This is your boarding pass," the staff said respectfully. Carleigh casually tossed the boarding pass into the trash can, took the boarding pass, and walked quickly towards the boarding gate hand in hand with her parents. Her back was straight, and her steps were without any hesitation. From now on, there was no longer a person named Keshawn in her world!
