Chapter 295

After a few drinks, Harmon was all worked up. With all the grievances he had bottled up over time, he couldn’t accept Anastasia’s explanation.

The more Anastasia struggled, the more excited Harmon got. He decided to yank off her jacket.

Anastasia started to panic and driven by fear, she started to shout, “Harmon, you’re just a wuss! You’re too scared to go after the ones who really screwed you. You’re picking on me because I’m an easy target, a woman. You’re pathetic and you deserve to be scammed.”

She didn’t hold back, kicking and shouting, “Did you ever stop to think why you got scammed? That’s because you’re a dimwit. You knew they were screwing you over, but you kept backing down. You’re just a wuss, afraid of them. You didn’t dare confront them. So, you had to take your anger out on me.”
