I almost lost myself in the kiss, but when I recalled what he said at the hospital, I came to my senses and reached out to shove him away.
But no matter how hard I pushed, he was too strong for me. He refused to let me go and held onto me tightly despite my protests.
Still, I didn’t want to give up. I raised my leg to kick him in the crotch, but he seemed to have anticipated this and quickly pinned my leg down with his.
Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, we were just a horny young couple that had snuck away for a make out session.
Sure enough, the two bodyguards didn’t recognize me. They just teased us in a playful, obscene tone.
“Hey, guys, get a room!”
Then they left, Laughing as they went.
When the sound of their laughter faded away, Caleb finally loosened his grip and I took the opportunity to push him away.
“You fucking bastard! You took advantage of me again!”
Despite my outburst, I knew very well that he only did it to help me escape the bodyguards. But I was still angry. I didn’t want to admit that I needed his help.
Caleb sneered, “It turns out that you left the hospital through the window in the middle of the night just to have some fun at the bar. You even misled Riley. Good for you!”
I snapped back, “What the hell are you talking about? It was Riley’s idea to meet Adam’s new mistress at the bar.”
“Oh, is that so?” Caleb asked sarcastically, clearly not believing my story.
I seized this as an opportunity to mock him.
“I’m more curious to know when your fiancee became Adam’s mistress.”
“What ?”
Caleb was clearly shocked. It seemed that he had no idea.
But I wasn’t interested in their personal affairs.
All I knew was that Caleb had promised me a few days ago that he’d make
Janiya leave the town. But he failed to do even that. And I was even more disappointed in him.𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.𝘤𝘰𝘮
I rolled my eyes at him and spat venomously, “It seems that a promise from you means nothing.”
Caleb remained silent.
I was done with this conversation and squatted down to help Riley up,
fully intending to leave this wretched place already.
But Caleb stopped me. “You’re seriously going to take her away like this? Do you want the whole town to know that the wife of the mayor got drunk in a bar?”
