He stood up, his dark eyes dripping with scorn I’ve given you far more necklaces than that Why don’t you wear any of them?”

I looked up at him, my anger flaring into a bitter laugh. “Do you have amnesia, Steven? Have you forgotten what you said outside Myron’s company? You told me to return everything you ever gave me. I mailed it all back to you ages ago.”

Just thinking about it made me furious. I had never met such a petty man.

After our argument that day, I went back to Rachel’s and shipped everything back to him. Everything I had ever worn or used, right down to the face wash, was in that box.

Steven’s face fell, his voice suddenly low and hoarse. “You sent it back?”

“Of course I did! I sent it back a month ago,” I snapped. “Don’t tell me you never even opened the package.”

If he didn’t need it, if he didn’t even know I’d returned it, then why had he been so aggressive about demanding it back in the first place?

His eyes darkened, and his lips pressed into a tight, hard line. He looked furious about something.

I couldn’t be bothered with his mood swings. I grabbed my bag. “Are we leaving or not?”

If I didn’t need him to come with me to finalize the divorce, I wouldn’t care if he stayed here all night.

With a dark expression, Steven strode out of the room. I frowned and followed him.

After the chaos I’d caused, the house was eerily quiet. My father didn’t even come out to see Steven off.

He got in the car, and I slid into the passenger seat without a second thought. His handsome, brooding face shifted through a range of emotions as he pulled away from

the curb.

I opened the box and took out Horace’s necklace, intending to check it for any tarnish after all these years. But a cold, menacing voice cut through the air.

“Put it back.”

I looked at him, confused. “Why?”

Steven’s voice was cold and sharp. “You’re looking at a gift from your lover in my car. Do you want me to teach you a lesson, or should go deal with him instead?”

I frowned in annoyance. “Don’t threaten me. If you touch Horace, I’ll make sure your precious Verna doesn’t have it easy either. You have leverage over me, but I have your weakness. We’re even, so don’t you dare threaten me.”

His handsome face contorted with frustration. “How many times do I have to tell you? My relationship with Verna isn’t what you think. I don’t have those kinds of feelings for her.”
