Chapter 6: Stop acting like a jerk!
I ignored him. "I'm just here to take my stuff and go," I deadpanned as I looked at him coldly.
"I tossed everything out. You can go search in the garbage bins if you want," he taunted as a low chuckle emerged from his lips.
"Why are you being a jerk, Blake? What did I ever do to you?"
He scoffed loudly in response. "What did you do? You should know that very well, Aurelia." I watched as he reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone, flashing a familiar picture in my face.
It was a picture of Xavier and I walking up the steps at the City Hall holding hands. It was at this moment that realisation dawned upon me. It must be the guy who bumped into me earlier, he must be the one who took this picture to send it to Blake, no wonder I found him slightly familiar.
"You are cheating on me with this guy, aren't you?" He snarled angrily with gritted teeth. "You have just divorced me and the next day you are already trying to marry another man. Aren't you just quite the slut?" His voice shook with anger, an intense look in his eyes.
I looked at him with an unbothered expression, only a laugh left my lips which riled him up even further. Without a single warning, he grabbed me by my neck and slammed me against the door roughly. My back collided with the door and the back of my head hit the frame.
A yelp escaped my lips and he squeezed the sides of my throat even tighter than before.
"What's so funny? You better wipe that smirk off your face," he warned as his eyes glimmered with a dangerous look, it was like he wanted me dead.
