As soon as Shane saw Antonio, he couldn’t hold back his anger anymore. He had always felt wronged for Grace, and today was finally his chance to avenge her.
“Antonio, if you keep bothering Grace, I won’t spare you!”
Antonio wasn’t afraid of Shane’s threat at all. He believed that as long as Grace still loved him, nothing could keep them apart.
“Grace. I know Laney and I didn’t treat you well before. And even if you are married, I won’t give up. I know you’ll come back to me one day.”
Antonio’s tone was very confident, but Shane felt annoyed. He couldn’t help but think, “Is he trying to provoke me? I’m Grace’s legitimate husband, not him, okay? What qualifications does he have to ask Grace to go back to him?”
With that in mind, Shane mocked, “Antonio, aren’t you ashamed? Grace has been with you for three years, and you didn’t even register for marriage with her. Now you’ve finally found out everything, you actually want her back again. You think she’s a maid who has to always follow your order?”
The more Shane spoke, the angrier he got. He cherished Grace very much, so he could never forgive Antonio for what he had done to her. Also, he couldn’t understand how Antonio still had the face to beg for forgiveness.
Antonio didn’t back down. He was determined to win Grace back.
“This is between Grace and me, none of your business!”
As soon as Antonio finished speaking, Shane’s fist hit his face.
“But she’s my wife now, and it’s legal!”
Antonio wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He had always wanted to
fight Shane, thinking that Shane could never compare with him. After all, Shane and Grace had only been together for a few days. but he had been with Grace for three years. He spat out some blood and was about to charge at Shane. Just then, Grace suddenly stepped forward and blocked Shane behind her.
Antonio looked at her in disbelief and slowly released his clenched fists. He couldn’t believe that she was really going to break up completely with him for another man.
Grace shouted at him, “Antonio, wake up! I don’t love you anymore. and I don’t want to have anything to do with you!
“Who I love now is Shane, my lawful husband.”
