The whole truth and nothing else (2)
Nana clutched his shirt and shook him hard. "Liu Jinhai. You know that I was engaged with Jianyu. Even if Huian falsely married you, you were still married to her! So how could you do that? Tell me, Jinhai. Please, this time…tell the truth and nothing else."
Her voice was more like a plea to Jinhai. Tears continuously streamed down her cheeks.
The hurt of her slap was nothing as compared to how torn Nana looked right now.
He brought the situation where he forced her to beg for answers helplessly. That made him utterly ashamed of himself.
Jinhai slowly raised his trembling hands. He was scared that she would shake him away. He held her face in between his palms.
He whispered. "Nana. You want to know the truth. I will tell you everything…From the beginning until now. I will not hide anything this time. But please…don't cry."
Nana didn't respond.
Jinhai paused for a moment to collect his disarrayed thoughts.
