Heartthrob: The vampire princess doesn't want to be a stand-in

Chapter 290 Give me your heart back

Evelyn pushed Vincent away and moved towards Garland step by step with trembling legs.

All the people were stunned where they were.

Vincent's mind went blank for a moment. For some reason, it seemed as if Evelin had hurt his heart.

"You're fucking crazy!"

Garland reacted and roared, and something exploded in his head.

Facing Evelyn's bloody heart, his sanity, his rationality, all his disguise and strength were shattered at this moment.

In the silent silence, Evelin fell heavily to the ground, and Vincent quickly caught her and held her in his arms.

The bulging veins all over his body told of his hatred and anger.

His eyes, which were red with tears but burned by the flames, stared fiercely at Garland and squeezed out these words from his throat:

"I will never let you go even if I die."

Garland's bloodshot eyes stared at them lifelessly as they left. He didn't even have the strength to catch her.

It was not until their backs were seen and everything around them was covered with a layer of mist that Garland realized he was crying.

I cried so hard that my lungs were torn apart.

Garland stood there in silence, staring blankly at the backs of the four people leaving. A fragment of the past seemed to reappear in his mind.

Garland tried his best to see clearly. It seemed to be noon in the academy.

As the familiar melody floated over, he actually felt a little sleepy as he walked out of an ancient building.

The building was extremely familiar, but he just couldn't remember what relationship it had with him or when he had been there.

Garland's body seemed to be controlled by his own soul in the fragments. He took action without thinking and followed his younger self forward.

He walked slowly on a path that was neither wide nor narrow, with tall trees with lush branches and leaves on both sides. The dazzling sunlight refracted through the gaps between the branches and leaves and reflected on the hot ground.

His eyes were always looking straight ahead, and such a gentle look seemed too unfamiliar compared to Garland now.

Once upon a time, he looked at Evelin with such tenderness.

But now, where has all that affection gone?

Garland looked at his teenage self, and after just one glance he froze in place.

In his memory, that simply impossible scene was reflected in his pupils.

Ollie, Yuri, Vincent and a blurry girl were standing under the tree, talking and laughing.

The three of them all looked like young men wearing white shirts.

"Come on, you're so slow!"

The girl seemed to have discovered something. She suddenly turned around, waved at Garland, and shouted with a smile.

For some reason, Garland's body reacted on its own, and he walked towards the girl without any thought.

In a trance, the young man Garland passed him and ran quickly towards the girl.

Even in the blur, the girl's brightly smiling face could be seen. She naturally took his and Vincent's arms, and the five of them walked away shoulder to shoulder.

Garland's brain was spinning rapidly as he watched them leave, and it seemed to overlap with the scene just now when Vincent held Evelyn and the four of them left him together.

When Garland came to his senses from his daze, he quickly chased after the five people who had left.

In this memory, he could see everyone clearly, including himself.

But he couldn't see anything about that girl, everything was blurry, and he could only hear the girl's voice clearly.

Very familiar yet strange.

Garland immediately discovered that no matter how hard he chased, he could only see the backs of the five people and could never surpass them.

As the five people walked away, the picture disappeared completely.

Garland's eyes once again focused on the place where he had just confronted Evelyn.

Everything that just happened seemed like a dream in which his soul left his body, a dream that did not belong to him.

Why does he appear in so many memories that do not belong to him, and why do he and Vincent appear in the same college so harmoniously.

In those memories, it seemed that their relationship was very close, not as dire as it is now.

It seemed that he was unwilling to believe or explore. The pain of brain tearing made him conclude that Vincent had cast some kind of spell on him during the confrontation just now in an attempt to tamper with his memory.

The most urgent task is not to investigate anything, but to solve this strange spell first.

Evelyn was surprised at what was happening before her eyes. She could never have imagined that Garland could also see Lilith's memory fragments.

Just as she was about to follow Garland's footsteps to find out what happened, the scene in front of her suddenly twisted and rotated.

Her soul floated up and down, wandering in a chaotic fragment for a long time, and finally landed in another fragment.

"Brother, I don't want to love you anymore."

Evelin was looking around when her voice suddenly entered her ears.

Evelin looked back when she heard the voice, only to see Evelin leaning weakly against the head of the bed as if she had lost all her vitality.

She murmured in her sleep, her blue eyes as if a stone had sunk into the sea.

All her alienation and indifference collapsed the moment she finished speaking, and the layer of frost that covered the mist in her eyes completely shattered.

She looked as if she was drunk, and seemed to be filled with inextricable sadness and despair.

"Why...why did I fall in love with you..."

"Why, no matter how hard I try, it's useless, why don't you love me..."

Evelyn looked at Garland's deep pupils with longing and murmured.

Vincent, who was standing by, sighed softly when he saw this scene, then stood up and walked out of the room, leaving the space to Garland and Evelyn.

"I'm so tired, and my heart aches."

"I have done so much, but there is never a place for me in your heart..."

"Do you know how much I longed to walk into this place?"

Evelyn's trembling fingers gently touched Garland's heart and murmured.

"I tried everything to pry it open, but now."

"I don't want to do it anymore. I don't want to be in pain anymore."

"Loving you is so hard, so hard, I don't want to experience despair anymore, I don't want to..."

“I always knew it had no room for me.”

"There's not even room for a strand of hair. I don't want to..."

"I really don't want to get into your heart anymore."

She seemed to be telling someone else's story, her tone was indifferent and ethereal.

If it weren't for the tears in her eyes reminding Garland, Garland would really think that the "I" she was talking about was not Evelyn herself.

However, Garland just looked at her without saying a word, and he didn't know what was wrong with his heart.
