Chapter 146 I Have My Reasons

• Caitlin knew that it would be over between her and Max if she walked out the door.
• Before this, she couldn’t care less if Max didn’t like her after finding out the truth, for she had come back only for Abby. But now, after going to his private garden and realizing that Max had always been in love with her, she couldn’t let him go anymore.
• Caitlin endured the searing pain from the burn on her hand and held onto Max’s arm. “Just believe me once, won’t you? Just this once! My feelings for you have never changed. Max, I admit that I’ve hated you; I hated you to death, but right when it most mattered, I couldn’t let you go. I really couldn’t. You love me. Don’t let someone else’s words cloud your thoughts, alright? Let’s live together peacefully, alright?”
