Trapped By Tainted Love

Chapter 37: It‘s My Call 

Rachel pursed her lips and stared at Victor through red–rimmed eyes.She hated Victor so much, but she was trying her best not to let it show.She was straining so much to hide her feelings that her eyes were close to popping right out of their sockets.

Victor had never seen Rachel look at him this way In the past, she always looked at him like a love–struck fool.

Her eyes always shone, full of admiration.

But now, her gaze held nothing of that sort.

Although she came so close to dying just now, she was still very calm.

It was bizarre.

It was like she had been possessed, like someone else was talking and acting through her.

Her hard gaze made Victor uneasy for a moment there, but soon enough he came to his senses and the coldness returned in his eyes.

‘Possessed? Come on, Victor.You are letting your imagination run wild.That‘s impossible! She is just playing you.Women like her are incapable of change.” 

"What’s the matter?"

Victor barked, narrowing his eyes at Rachel.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Do you have anything to say in your defense? Stop acting like the victim here! My patience has run out; I can‘t even stand the sight of you! Get out! I never want to see you again! Go back to hell, where you belong."

Rachel didn‘t move at all.She only clenched her fists to her sides.

A threatening look crossed Victor‘s face.

"Ivan," he called.

"I am not leaving," Rachel said calmly, not taking her eyes off Victor.

She seemed determined to stay here and face him, despite his best efforts to drive her off.

Victor was stunned by her nerve.
