Chapter 31: This is just the start
Third Person POV
"Are you serious?" Disbelief was written all over her face as she looked up to stare into his dark eyes, with a fiery blaze swirling in her eyes.
"Yes, I am," he confirmed, his voice remaining unwavering as a look of certainty crossed his face. "Why would I not be?"
She slammed her hand on the table, the loud sound echoing in the space as she rose from her seat in an instant.
"Are you crazy? You can’t do that," she insisted. "You know who my parents are right? Do you have a death wish?" she questioned with a raised brow, her voice carrying a sharp edge to it.
"I don’t care who your parents are," he retorted in a cold voice, unbothered by her threat. "Nobody touches my wife and gets away with it."
Anger and jealousy coursed through her body as soon as those words rolled off the tip of his tongue and her cheeks turned red.
"Your wife this, your wife that, who is she anyway?! Do you really love her that much?!" She burst out yelling in anger, her high-pitch voice piercing through the air as her fists were clenched tightly beside her.
He looked at her as silence stretched between the both of them, he was simply unfazed by her antics and yelling. After all, he had been used to this.
"I do. I always did," he simply said in a serious tone as he looked her dead in her eyes.
A humourless laughter left her lips. She collapsed back down onto the chair dramatically as if her knees went weak, her hands gripping onto the side of the table for support.
