Chapter 238 Bitten by a Dog
I clicked my tongue in frustration and clenched my bag strap, fingernails digging into my palm. The pain gave me an odd sense of comfort.
Suddenly, Atlas’s phone rang. He looked at me and answered, “Yeah?”
A woman’s voice said, “Atlas, where are you?”
“I’m busy,” he replied coldly.
“Do you want to come out? Maybe you can come to my place?” The woman’s voice turned tender.
“Another time. I’m busy right now,” Atlas responded and hung up.
1 felt awkward and said, “Mr. Atlas, you seem busy. I’ll take
my leave.”
Without waiting for his response, I headed toward the exit. However, he quickly held me. I yelped In surprise as he turned me to face him. He was about to kiss me when he saw something on my neck.
He asked angrily, “What happened here?! Who did this?!”
I was puzzled. I looked at Atlas with panic, saying, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
He grabbed my wrist tightly and led me to an exquisite bathroom with mirrors on the entire wall. Atlas pushed me toward one of the mirrors and said, ‘See for yourself! Don’t tell me you can’t remember whot
did this.”
I saw a hickey on my collar. I froze for a moment, and then it hit me. It was Matthew. I gritted my teeth and silently cursed. Then, I looked at it again with anger.
Atlas pried, “Who was it?!”
I tugged at my collar and tried to pull away from his grip. However, he held onto me firmly. “I got bitten by a dog! You can’t expect me to bite back, can you?”
“Tell me who did it!” he demanded,
I remained silent, glancing at the handprint on my wrist. I knew it would turn into a bruise tomorrow, Atlas.
seemed to realize it and attempted to inspect my wrist. I pulled it away, not allowing him to see.
“I’m leaving!”
