Bruce was relentless, his eyes blazing with fury as he demanded confirmation once again, "Are you sure you didn't touch my phone or laptop?"
"I, Lucy, have always been upright and honest. If I did something, I'd own up to it. I refuse to take the fall for something I didn't do!"
Bruce glowered at her for a moment, then released her collar with a forceful push, his jaw clenched tight, his expression dark and menacing.
So, the video hadn't been deleted by Lucy. That meant she didn't know about his fling with Evelyn, let alone the existence of any incriminating footage.
But how had the video on his phone vanished into thin air?
Bruce's mind raced to Thalassa's recent change in demeanor. She was no longer the pushover she used to be, responding to him with defiance instead of compliance, even going so far as to threaten him!
Could it be Thalassa who had deleted the video?
She was craftier than he had given her credit for, managing to erase the files on his phone and computer without any trace.
Was Thalassa trying to slip from his grasp, to free herself from his threats? If so, she was playing a child's game. He wouldn't be outplayed that easily!
"What's so damn important about your phone and laptop? Are you cheating on me again with some other woman?" Lucy snapped back to reality, shoving Bruce with a force that belied her rage.
Bruce stumbled backwards, then glared at her with a dangerous intensity, "You better watch your tone. If you keep pushing me, I'll push back hard!"
"What, you want to hit me now?" Lucy gasped in disbelief.
Bruce’s behavior was different today. All his pretense had fallen away, revealing someone brutal, ruthless, and seemingly capable of murder.
