37 SORRY CHANGES NOTHING
LUKE’S POV
Harriet could notice the anger on my face right now, burning within me like flames. And I could tell she was scared, but she wanted to act tough. I was not going to be blinded by her desirabic looks.
Still glaring at Harriet, I forcefully pressed her hand, which I had a hold of.
“Ouuu,” she vocalized in pain. “Luke, what are you doing?”
“I’m just fulfilling your wish–making you scream.” I squeezed her hand harder.
“This is not how it’s supposed to be.” Harriet struggled to cease my grip, but it was just too tight.
“Then how?”
“Let me go, and I’ll show you.” She tightly shut both of her eyes.
I didn’t give Harriet a reply. But instead, I kept on inflicting pain on her.
“Please Luke, let go of me!” Her scream only got louder, and I had to do as she said.
After letting go of Harriet, I grabbed her face, forcefully pressing her jaws. “Now listen, I don’t want anything to do with you again. Don’t think you can use your body to make me forget about everything you did.”
“I said I’m sorry!” she spoke, with the words barely coming out of her mouth, since I was pressing her jaws like hell.
“Sorry’s going to change nothing,” I spat bitterly. “You tell me, if you throw a plate to the ground, causing it to shatter into peices. And you tell it sorry, is it going to be fixed? Is it going to get back to normal?”
“No,” she answered lowly, barely audible.
“Is it?” I snarled, moving my face closer to hers, still pressing her jaws forcefully.
“No!” Harriet screamed clamorously this time, with both of her eyes still closed. I thrust her visage backwards after that.
She stood still for a moment, trying to catch her breath. And seeing her face, the hatred grew more and more.
ARIEL’S POV
Mason and I exchanged a gaze, which lasted for some seconds. Of course I knew what he wanted to talk about, but would this guy even let me rest?
“So what are you trying to say? That I shouldn’t follow Andre?” I asked Mason, installing both of my hands on my waist.
“Yes,” he answered coldly, dropping his phone on the table. “This is important.
“Important?” I blurted out, letting out a short sigh. “I know what you want to talk about. Can’t that wait till when I get back?”
FSORRY CHANGES NOTHING
“No, no, it can’t,” Mason replied, getting up. “You might take too long, and I’m afraid I’ll fall asleep, waiting for your lame ass.”
His last words caused Michael to look at him.
“What?” Mason asked Michael in an unfriendly tone, noticing how he was just staring at him.
“You just disrespected her,” Michael answered.
Mason took a quick look at me, before fixing his gaze back on Michael. “So what?”
“You’re not supposed to do that,” Michael defended me.
“This is unbelievable.” Mason couldn’t help but laugh. “It seems like you have no idea who you’re talking to.”
“I do. And don’t start thinking too high of yourself,” Michael retorted.
“Oh shut up!” Mason slammed the table with his fist. He was burning with rage, breathing heavily, glaring at Michael. “You do not want to regret this.”
“What are you going to do?” Michael spat back.
Mason and Michael glared at each other, silent, yet burning with intense rage. And this was definitely not something I wanted.
“That’s a dumb question, you know.” I had to let her know. “And you better get the hell out of this room, out of this house. Just taking a look at your face, makes me sick.”
“This is exactly what I’m talking about,” she uttered and continued, “A love you claimed to have for so many years, is going to come to an end just like that?”
“So that means you’ve been sleeping with other men since day one.” I chuckled promptly, averting my gaze. “I should have known.
“You made a lot of promises to me, Luke. They’re still in my head. And you couldn’t fulfill any of them.”
“Well, it’s all because of you,” I retorted. “If you had just remained loyal, I’m pretty sure we
