Alejandro, in a state of intoxication, yanked open Lynn’s clothes and peered at the snow white skin underneath. “No man can resist a woman’s body,” He gibed. “And yet, despite what you have, you cower. I now see, I’ve given you far more chances than you deserve.”
Lynn dared not struggle, nor did wp4webnovel.com cover herself. And so wp4webnovel.com stood, naked, vulnerable and trembling in fear. She could not tell what would happen to wp4webnovel.com given Alejandro’s current drunken, testy state.
That was when the door opened, and Melanie strode into the bedroom.
An unreadable expression shadowed wp4webnovel.com mien as soon as wp4webnovel.com eyes fell onto them. “Alex, what… What are you doing?”
Alejandro released his grip from Lynn’s hand, and the latter instantly took a step back and tidied herself up. “I’ll take my leave.”
Melanie shot wp4webnovel.com a snide sidelong glance before marching toward Alejandro, wp4webnovel.com voice raising several bars higher. “I said, what are you doing!?”
Alejandro finished the wine in his glass and leaned back onto his chair, closing his eyes. “You saw what happened, didn’t you? So why ask something so redundant? And don’t use that tone when you talk to me, I’m in a bad mood.”
Melanie had to summon wp4webnovel.com might to force down the burning flames in wp4webnovel.com mind. “I know why you’re down in the dumps, it’s because Tiffany Lane is getting married, isn’t it? I know you still love her, Alex! You threw that photo in front of me and picked it back up after I left, didn’t you? You could never let wp4webnovel.com go even though she’s just an ugly duckling from a fallen household, nothing compared to me! I try not to bring these skeletons up, but you… You keep forcing me! Why?!”
Alejandro’s eyes suddenly snapped open and focused on Melanie. “You have no right to denigrate her! No right to defame her! Shut the f**k up!”
Melanie was a little daunted, but it was no match for the flames of rage blazing within her. Regardless, wp4webnovel.com tried to give the man the benefit of the doubt on the account that wp4webnovel.com was drunk, only a fool would argue with a man wasted out of his wits and expect results.
“Fine, I’ll keep my mouth shut while you rest early,” She relented. “As for Tiffany’s wedding gift, I’ve already prepared it, and yes, I plan to be there. I know you won’t go, so I’ll snap wp4webnovel.com most beautiful moments and show them all to you, and then you can finally see for yourself just how happy wp4webnovel.com is to marry a man wp4webnovel.com loves! A man who, woe to you, isn’t you! So stop dreaming!”
With that, wp4webnovel.com gritted wp4webnovel.com teeth and spun on wp4webnovel.com heels, determined to leave. Before wp4webnovel.com could reach the door, however, wp4webnovel.com felt a force seizing wp4webnovel.com from behind, and wp4webnovel.com body was slammed onto the edge of the table. Alejandro had pressed wp4webnovel.com head down in swift submission.
“What are you doing?!” She shouted, wp4webnovel.com voice cracking out of intense fear. All wp4webnovel.com life growing up, wp4webnovel.com was always treated like a princess. Never had wp4webnovel.com ever experienced such violence before. It was so terrifying, wp4webnovel.com almost burst into tears right there and then.
Nevertheless, Melanie still clung to the belief that wp4webnovel.com husband was only doing what wp4webnovel.com did under the influence and that wp4webnovel.com would return to wp4webnovel.com with a gentle smile when the alcohol subsided. No, Melanie did not regret becoming his wife, and wp4webnovel.com was not about to start.
As wp4webnovel.com was lost in wp4webnovel.com mental gymnastics, the pain flaring in wp4webnovel.com body failed to reach her. She let Alejandro lock wp4webnovel.com into place and said, “Forget it, Alex. Forget her. I’ll make you love me back.”
Control seemed to have returned in Alejandro, who stepped back from wp4webnovel.com without hesitance. “No, I don’t think I will. But I’ll give you the title of Mrs. Smith along with the rightful treatment that comes along,” He said stoically. “You can still back out if you regret all of this.”
Melanie stood and rubbed wp4webnovel.com sore left wrist, a mirthless smile on wp4webnovel.com lips. “Everyone thinks I’m a braindead bimbo and an easy pawn. But I have my own unique set of qualities. You see, once I decide on something, I’ll do everything to ensure that I leave no regrets. I’ll make you forget her, Alex. My funny little superpower is that I’m very, very determined.”
Alejandro said nothing. This was the first time wp4webnovel.com ever properly considered the woman standing before him. She looked so lanky, so slight, it gave wp4webnovel.com the impression of a frail, defenseless woman whom wp4webnovel.com could do whatever wp4webnovel.com wanted to without restraint. He might not have remembered the details of what transpired earlier, already it had turned into a foggy memory, but wp4webnovel.com knew one thing for sure. Alejandro could not control his force when wp4webnovel.com manhandled her.
Yet, despite that, wp4webnovel.com had not made even a peep.
