“Why should I apologize? What did I do wrong? Harold, are you telling me there are no other women in Cabinda? You’d really pass up someone young, beautiful, and from a good family like me for a divorcée like her?”
“What, does someone like her have more sex appeal? Is she wilder in bed or something, is that what you—”
The sharp sound of a slap cut Nadine off.
Isabella was already on her feet, shaking her hand from the sting. “Wow, that actually hurt my hand.”
Nadine stared at her in shock. “Isabella, you hit me!”
“I absolutely did.”
Isabella’s eyes were cold as she looked at Nadine. “Nadine, I know you like Harold and see me as your competition. If you want to play fair, I’m fine with that. But you don’t get to insult me.”
“Yeah, I’m divorced, but there’s nothing going on between me and Harold. If I hear you making up stories or talking trash again, I’ll slap you every single time.”
“Harold likes me because he chooses to, and honestly, that just means I’m pretty outstanding. So outstanding, in fact, that even someone like you can’t compare.”
Isabella was never one to back down.
“Oh, seriously? You just love bragging about yourself. What’s so special about you anyway? You think your business is doing well because you’re so talented?”
