Ex-Husband's Regret

Chapter 424

I was just getting out of the car when, out of nowhere, he grabs my hand, pulling it harshly. I'm startled by the action and I lift my head in confusion only to find his eyes blazing.

"Where the fuck is your ring?" he spits, his eyes glaring at me.

Shit! What the hell?

I slowly look from him, to my empty ring finger. Have you ever been confused about a situation? Like you know what you're being asked, know the answer, but you're still confused? Well, that's me right now. "Harper, where is your ring?" he grits out while getting out of the car.

I watch his body unfold from the car, and then he is towering over me. His overwhelming presence renders me mute.

A little shake from him brings me back to the present.

"I don't understand what's happening right now," I mutter, still not sure why the hell he was livid over something so insignificant.

His face grows darker if that's even possible. It's like my answer just snapped something inside him.

"What's happening is that you're not wearing the ring I gave you and I want to know why," he growls, his face tight.

Dumbly I reply, "I didn't see the need to."

In my defense, my brain cells were already short-circuited from what happened in the gym and the car just a few minutes ago.

"You don't see the need?"

I nod numbly, still staring, as his face grew even tighter.

Sensing the danger, I try to step back, but it's of no use. His hands shoot out to stop me from my retreat.
