#Chapter161
Alexi glares at me. That deathly anger of a madman and shakes his head as though I have no right to say that.
‘Let it go. I had my reasons and you’re here now, aren’t you?’ He looks away as though dismissing me for something minor and I lose my temper completely. Blood and rage bubbling up like an overfilled pot on a burner.
‘No!! I have a right to be pissed and hurt for how you treated me. You think because you gave me my job back and treat me marginally better this time that I should just fall at your feet again? Please … explain what your reasons were, as this is news to me!’ I spit, voices still drowned out by his loud family but I’m not keeping quiet anymore. I cannot contain this.
‘I’m not doing this here. Drink your champagne and leave it alone.’ Alexi clamps down on me through gritted teeth, that I assume is meant to hush me before they hear us.
Always caring about what everyone else sees and thinks of him.
