Beckett’s heart melted instantly.When he turned back to me,his voice was full of irritation.“That’s enough!You’re pregnant too—how can you have zero empathy?”
“You pushed Delaney.I’m just trying to take care of her.If you don’t want her here,then maybe you should leave.”
His words hit like a slap.
I stared at him,the blood draining from my face.My whole body trembled.
And then I said,as clearly as I could,“As you wish.”
Tonight would be my last night in this house.After this,I’d be gone—and Beckett Shaw would be a closed ###Chapter in my life.
With my decision made,I grabbed the trash bag in my hand and marched out the door.
Delaney’s voice followed behind me,laced with mock pity.
“Don’t fight because of me,Beckett.Look,she’s so angry she even took down your wedding photo.”
Beckett’s voice rumbled low with frustration.“She’s just being dramatic.Once she realizes I’m not playing her game,she’ll come crawling back.”
A tear slid down my cheek.I walked into the cold night and threw the trash away along with very last shred of love I had left for him.
