Losing her worth as a pawn would mean the end of their relationship and she didn't want that. That was why she held on. She held on as much as she could.
Tears slid down the corners of her eyes. Her heart actually hurt. It hurt more than her bruised and sore body. If she got abandoned by Raymond, she definitely wouldn't be able to live.
