Chapter 801
Halsey’s feet hit the ground , and she took off running .
Gilbert laughed bitterly he had expected her move . Quick as liglining , he grabbed her art and shoved her against the wall .
Holding her shoulder firmly , he demanded , “ Where do you think you’re going ? ”
“ I should be the one asking you – what exactly do you want ? ” Halsey shot back . “ We ended things three years ago . No , we never even started . Why can’t you just let me go ? ”
Gilbert looked at her . “ I don’t want this to end . Just give me one more chance . Let’s be together . ”
“ Dream on , ” Halsey hissed . “ I’m never getting back with you .
“ Why not ? ”
“ Why do you think ? ”
”
“ Are you hung up on that past with Sienna ? Yeah , I’ve slept with her . It’s not like you’re still a virgin ! You’ve been with Dwight , so why do you look down on me ? ”
Gilbert’s jealousy for Dwight burned hot – he knew Halsey had given her first time to Dwight . He knew better than anyone how much she loved Dwight three years ago .
Halsey glared at Gilbert . “ Enough !
t you dare bring him up . ‘

“ Why not ? What’s so great about him ? Wake up ! Three years have passed . Dwight never came back . He’s married to some other woman by now – maybe even has kids . You’re stupid – even after all this time , you’re still holding onto his sister ! ”
“ Maddy’s my sister ! Don’t you dare disrespect her ! ”
“ Why do you protect her so much , huh ? Do you still love him ? ”
Gilbert’s jealousy was out of control . Just hearing Dwight’s name set him off .
“ It doesn’t matter whether I love him or not . The truth is , you don’t even compare to him , ” Halsey said .
Gilbert’s eyes reddened . “ How do I not compare ? I’m gonna show you I’m better than him ! ”
He leaned in to kiss her lips .
Panicked , Halsey quickly dodged . “ Let me go ! Don’t touch me ! ”
In desperation , she bent her knee sharply into his groin . Gilbert doubled over in pain , ready to react – but suddenly , a wooden stick hit the back of his head .
Gilbert released Halsey and turned around to see Madeline standing there .
Madeline dropped the stick and grabbed Halsey . “ Are you okay ? ”
“ I’m fine ! Let’s get out of here ! ” Halsey grabbed Madeline’s hand and ran .
Gilbert , furious and humiliated , shouted , “ Halsey , you’ve crossed a line ! These past three years , I’ve spoiled you way too much ! Get them ! ”
At his command , a group of black – clad bodyguards rushed over .
“ Chase them down ! Tonight , I want Halsey in my bed ! ”
The bodyguards answered , “ Got it ! ”
Halsey pulled Madeline out of the bar as the guards closed in behind them .

“ Stop ! Don’t run ! ”
They reached the main street .
Halsey waved at passing cabs and yelled desperately , “ Stop ! Please
Yet , none of the cabs slowed down .
Madeline glanced back – Gilbert was close . “ Halsey , he’s coming .
Halsey kept trying . “ Please , stop ! ”
Alas , no cab dared to pull over .
Gilbert soon caught up .
“ Get back here ! ”
