Chapter 8: Rubbing Salt On A Wound
"What else?"
His dry voice interrupted her thoughts. Rory looked at his cold eyes that were looking down on her. She felt slighted by his look.
Something snapped inside her. She didn’t want to be in his presence anymore.
She put her pride aside and practically begged him, but he is treating her as a pest. Her ego got bruised.
"Nothing," she said and turned to leave. But her blood started boiling as his conceited expression lingered in her mind. She didn’t want to leave like a loser.
"Ah, I almost forgot," she opened her purse and took out his mother’s ring(her engagement ring) she had with her.
"Here," she placed the ring on the table in front of him. She looked for the picture frame and it was not there anymore.
"What..." he tried to speak, but she interjected him.
"Once I get the divorce certificate, I will return the necklace you gifted me. So..." she wanted to shout, but she held herself back and smiled ear to ear.
He would be pleased with himself if he successfully angered her. She cannot let him win.
Plus, she still needs to think about Ellie.
Ah... Ellie...
