Seeing the eyes of the woman in front of him, full of disdain and hatred, Samuel feels a wave of unease wash over him. His mind raced with hundreds of thoughts.
Ophelia glared at him before walking away with her instinct guard up as she looked back at him a couple of times to watch his reaction, afraid he would do something that might endanger her.
Samuel's heart sank as he realized the depth of Ophelia's mistrust. He desperately wanted to prove her wrong and mend their fractured relationship, but he knew it would be an uphill battle.
Panic washed over him as he saw this. His heart wavered with fear, and his hands trembled.
He stepped forward, one step at a time, with determination.
When Ophelia saw this, her heart raced in horror, and she screamed for him to stop.
