Chapter 37 A Match Made On Earth

• As soon as I saw Victor almost running out of the room. I knew I had hurt him deeply. I wanted to shout out loud, tell him it was all a lie. I wanted to tell him that I love him but Mrs. Thompson kept shaking her head at me. I couldn't let him risk his inheritance because of me. So, I had to be strong.
• I looked away from his retreating back as I turned to look at Lavelle whose hands were still on my back. I removed his hands from around me, placing it on my palm, I forced a smile on my face. Truth is, his touch repulses me. I hated how he made me feel as he drew circles at my back. I wanted to lash out at him and warn him never to touch me again but I held back my tongue because Aunt Becca and Mrs. Thompson were watching us closely.
• “So that’s settled then, you both are coming with us on our date” Tianna was saying with a smile on her face. I ignored her while Lavelle smiled his thanks. I knew she had an ulterior motive of asking us to tag along but I wouldn't give her the satisfaction of hurting me.
