Her gaze which was a mixture of strange and disbelief was what made Aston's heart crumbled. He didn't want her to look at him that way!
Of all people, why must she be the one to saw him when he was at his lowest? Just the thought that she would pity him made the actor scared. He doesn't need to be pity by anyone, especially her.
"Why did you do that? Why did you allow yourself to suffer like this?" Her voice was very calm which was not what he expected.
He expected her to laugh at him saying that he was a crazy man. His experience taught him that no one really understands him but it's understandable. They don't know the real him.
People know Aston Kang, the friendly, playful and cheerful actor but they don't know his insecure and broken side which was hidden deep inside for many years.
"Why do you care about that? It's none of your business." For the first time ever, he talked to her in a cold manner. He can't help as it was him making an effort to hide his weakness.
