Chapter 290 Start of Alexi’s Downfall
"You enjoy the touch?" Alexi’s nasal voice echoed near Hera’s ears, sending goosebumps over her body, which she found unsettling.
Hera fought to free herself from Alexi’s tightening grip. "Let go of me! Or I won’t be so polite!" she said through clenched teeth.
"Oh? I know you’d never hurt me, babe." Alexi deeply inhaled the scent of Hera’s hair, his eyes shimmering with desire as he savored another breath. "I’ve missed you so much," he murmured, his Adam’s apple bobbing as he restrained the urge to whisk Hera away and fuck her senseless, just as he did with Minerva to silence her incessant questions.
"I warned you, don’t blame me for this." Even before Hera finished her sentence, she had already kneaded Alexi right in a good spot which made him loosen his grip on her Hera wasn’t done with him yet, she’d been so annoyed with him for quite some time now and was just trying to be the bigger person since it was just a waste of time but now, she really wanted to teach him a lesson, she then held his arm that he used to grab her and then she hurled him to her shoulder, shifting his weight over her body and used the momentum to throw him on the floor with a swift motion.
Because of how fast things escalated, no one had expected this to happen, not even Alexi who was in pain on the floor while staring at Hera with wide eyes. Hera on the other hand just looked at him with indifference and annoyance before she dusted her palms and straightened her close.
She didn’t wait for anyone to understand what had just happened and immediately grabbed her things before striding to the parking lot.
"HERA!!!" Alexi roared in anger as he struggled to get back on his feet. "GET BACK HERE WHILE I’M STILL BEING NICE!!!" His voice betrayed a belief that he still held control over Hera, expecting her to yield to his anger as she had in the past.
Hera was aware that it was indeed her fault for making it appear like she was easy to bully and had no backbone before because she was so scared of the storyline progressing to the original course that she was doing her best to cater to Alexi and his family to make sure that he wouldn’t go cheat on her with Minerva.
Now aware that the inevitable would unfold unless she took decisive action, Hera resolved not to be a doormat for people like Alexi and his family any longer.
