Chapter 1793

Tm beat You can go and do whatever you want

She didn’t want to say too much to him because over the past few days, she had noticed that Momson never had anything positive to say to her Every sentence seemed to carry a cutting edge stabbing at her heart She didn’t want to engage with someone who made her feel so uncomfortable Moreover she knew full well that with all the drama that had unfolded today, he was probably harboring a lot of pent up anger

She slipped under the covers and tumed to her side Momson stood at the doorway unable to decide whether to enter of leave

Each encounter with het was met with an increasing coldness. The words spoken by that man at the hospital buzzed around in his heart like a swarm of flies. Did she really think she could find another man be their baby’s stepfather?

Preposterous. He would like to see who was bald enough to be his baby’s stepfather (2

A wave of anger rose within him, but the image of Rose standing at the restaurant entrance coupled with what the doctor had said earlier, gave him a sense of unease

Eyeing the lump under the covers. Morison squinted and eventually decided to leave the room

He went downstairs and pulled out a cigarette heading for the balcony However a young dog’s bark interrupted his peace.

He glanced at the golden retriever puppy, lit his cigarette and kicked the pup aside.

“Woof woot wool

The puppy started barking again. Momson frowned and looked back towards the upstairs. After taking a deep drag from his cigarette, he stared down the puppy if barking | might butcher you.

Wool woof, woof

Momson crouched down, fixating his gaze on the seemingly innocent retriever He muttered. The woman’s resting upstairs, are you sure you want to keep this up

intimidated by Momson’s sudden display of authority, the puppy retreated and reduced its barking to a whimper

Morrison chuckled Coward

He then realized his petty behavior and glanced at the dog food bowl, water dish, and his other slipper in the dog bed. His expression darkened He reached into the dog bed. retrieved his slipper, and tossed it in front of the puppy ‘Stop barking Everything you eat, drink and play with belongs to me Get real Behave, and | might consider keeping you around

The puppy whimpered and took the “toy slipper” into its bed it seemed to have calmed down.

Momson watched as the puppy retreated into its bed, gnawing at his slipper, his mood inexplicably sour

Rose had heard the puppy’s barking from upstairs She wanted to check on the situation but didn’t want to give Momson an opportunity to pick a fight. She was still aimed about the potential for a full–blown confrontation between the two

The thought amused her A standoff between Momson and the little pup? The puppy would likely be defeated

Downstairs on the balcony Morrison stood by the window his cigarette replaced by a fresh one

Recently Rose’s cold demeanor reminded him of when they were in school together. She had always carried herself like a princess, flaunting her pride and vib Wherever she went all eyes followed her Boys tried to win her over in various ways, but she was too proud to give them a second look

And him, he had seen plenty of these so–called ‘princesses Elegant and beautiful on the surface, but pompous and domineering underneath. Born into wealthy families. they were innately hypocritical and it seemed that bullying the weak was almost ingrained in their nature. There was no exception

His family had always preached about marrying within the same social class. There was no freedom in marriage their lives destined to be a sacrifice for the he was expected to marry a hypocritical pretentious princess?

His ingrained resentment had already become a part of him And Rose, from the moment he met her he had been certain that she was his kryptonite if there was one woman he would never marry in this lifetime Rose would be on top of his blacklist
