I told you I didn’t want your hands on my property.” She couldn’t believe he was saying that. “I don’t want your stupid property. What would I do with it?” “Goodness, I trusted you. You could have told me anytime about this ‘supposed company’.” Why didn’t you?” “When have you agreed to any of my suggestions?” “That didn’t give you the right to keep things from me. Oh, you’re good. I have to say. You didn’t let me get a whiff of what you were up to. The loving wife who doted on her husband. You were a superb actress. Perfection,” he said kissing his fingers. He was being cruel. “It wasn’t an act. You know I love you.” She stepped forward to touch him. He was having none of it as he stepped away. Surya flung the papers on the bed. “You betrayed me. When I was adamant about this. How could you? Do you even know what love is?” “I was only watching out for you.” This time he screamed and the windowpanes shuddered. “You were watching out for yourself.” View the book trailer here Buy Your copy Today |
