Chapter 40: Trapped In The Kitchen (2)
Without giving the aftermath of her actions a second thought, Madeline’s hand reached for the fork on the counter, and to Jeremy’s unexpected alarm, she quickly stabbed his hand with the sharp mouths of the fork, forcing his hold on her to instantly drop, and Madeline swirled out of his grip, pointing the fork frantically at his face.
"You..!!.." he winced when the pain on his wrist abruptly stung him straight up to his shoulder. To say he was shocked by her retaliation was clearly an understatement. She really stabbed him with a fork without thinking about what he might do to her in return.
Looking at his wrist, the mouth of the fork had left four red signs of the stab it had inflicted on his skin, and he tilted his head back up, glaring at her for daring to do this in the first place.
"Stay f..far away from me." Madeline warned with a shaky voice, still pointing the fork at him. "Only my husband has the right to touch me, you have no right to lay your filthy hands on me. If you try to come near me, I swear I’ll... I’ll..." quickly scanning his body with her gaze, she pointed the fork at his lower member. "I’ll stab you right there, I’m not joking."
"You’re insane!" Jeremy instantly took a step back when she threatened to stab his manhood. From the seriousness in her gaze, something told him that she will stab him right there if he intends to come near her and exact his revenge on her. No wonder Cassian chose to marry someone like her, it was more than obvious that they shared the same insanity.
"I did suspect something was off when you left the dinner table." Came a blunt voice that interrupted Madeline’s moment. When they turned their heads to look at the direction the voice was coming from, Cassian was standing at the entrance of the kitchen, observing the scene with a mocking gaze that was solely fixed on Jeremy.
"Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Going after another man’s wife I see. Well, I’m not completely surprised because the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree. Am I right, Jerry?" He clicked his tongue, and Jeremy’s hands balled in anger when he realized Cassian was indirectly referring to his mother.
The bastard!
Turning his attention to Madeline who was still holding the fork in her grasp, she quickly tried to explain the situation to Cassian before he misunderstood the whole thing, but to her unexpected surprise, he walked up to where she stood, giving her a gentle pat on the head like someone who had done something commendable.
