"Clara! You're not allowed to be happy without me by your side!" Sean clenched his fists.
"You must always be mine. Even if you're happy, you must be happy by my side. I don't want us to part ways like this."
Sean was starting to feel like he was going crazy, longing for Clara to return to his arms.
He began neglecting some important aspects of his daily routine. All his work was falling by the wayside. His relationships with some of his business associates were starting to fray.
Sean was losing control of his business affairs because of his personal issues.
He missed Clara. He begged a second chance.

That night ..., Sean didn't return home in a rage. He came home with a calm expression. Too calm.
That minor defeat at the door of Clara's apartment didn't shatter him—it actually brought out his worst side. The side that never shouted, never made direct threats, but always won because it knew exactly where to strike.
