Recalling the rage that had coursed through her, she could almost feel her hands shaking again as she’d smashed his phone and ended things on the spot.

The woman with Jason, her lips painted a striking red, looked at Teresa with a hint of suspicion. “Jason, who is she?” she questioned, tinge of envy in her voice.

Jason scanned Teresa from head to toe, a smug smile on his face. Just my ex, he dismissed, his voice dripping with self–importance

Teresa snorted dismissively, her tone dripping with sarcasm. “I’m not the type to be an ex, especially not with my high standards.” Tuming to the girl with a smirk, she asked. “Are w

With his arm around Teresa, Jonathan confronted Jason and the woman. “I saw you pointing at Teresa. Did she say something that bothered you?”

The woman, picking up on the tension, pulled at Jason’s sleeve and whispered, “Let’s get out of here. This guy’s loaded. We shouldn’t
