So I drove my car to the pack house.</p> <p>When I entered the pack house, I saw my father strolling back and forth in the living room.</p> <p>He did not look like he was in a very good mood. I approached him, even though I was unable to determine the cause of his utterly depressed state of mind.</p> <p>“Dad,” I uttered.</p> <p>He looked at me and asked,</p> <p>“Why do you get drunk every day?”</p> <p>I was silent. I didn’t give a damn.</p> <p>It was not necessary for me to respond to each and every question.</p> <p>By blackmailing me over something that was rightfully mine from the start, he was the one who destroyed my life.</p> <p>My life would have been different if I had not paid attention to him and not married Natalia two years ago.</p> <p>When my father noticed that I was remaining silent, his eyes became more gloomy. He ordered me,</p> <p>“Come to my room.”</p> <p>Ahead of him, I followed him. During that</p> <p>+ 15 BONUS</p> <p>quietly looking at us.

Because of her, I was what I was today. For this reason, I believe that marrying her would not be the wrong choice for me in the future.</p> <p>“Why are you silent?

What could I say to him that would make him realize that she was the o</p> <p>However, I did not wish to give an explanation, so I just inquired, What’s wrong if I want to marry Lynda?”</p> <p>My father growled at me. His eyes turned red as he punched me.</p> <p>I became so angry that I clenched my fists. The fact that he was my father was the only reason I was able to keep my composure.</p> <p>If there was another person who had the audacity to punch me, hand would have already been broken by that point.</p> <p>My father started to scold me.</p> <p>“I chose the perfect woman for you. She took care of you for two years. But what did you do? You divorced that innocent woman.</p> <p>his</p> <p>Now, what do you want? Do you want to marry that homewrecker?”</p> <p>“Dad, please.”</p> <p>‘Please? For what? You ought to have told me this when I was breaking the pack bond with Natalia. I would have appreciated it. That poor girl had to lea</p> <p>His words forced me to think that if I had stopped my father that day, would she not have left?</p> <p>When I left the pack house, I was filled with annoyance as I drove back to my own home.</p> <p>The moment that I walked into my house, I noticed a woman dressed in a white dress.</p> <p>My legs froze. Her back was facing me.</p> <p>‘Natalia?‘ I thought. noveldrama</p> <p>“So you came back.” I said it with sarcasm.</p> <p>The woman turned around and smiled broadly as she greeted me with a happy expression on her face.</p> <p>“Adrian, you’re back?”</p> <p>I was taken aback. “It’s you!”</p> <p>I was stunned to see Lynda. And what she was wearing was Natalia’s dress.</p> <p>“What’s wrong? You don’t want to see me?” Lynda asked as she approached me.</p> <p>I frowned at her. “Why are you wearing Natalia’s dress?”</p> <p>She looked nervous when I asked the question.</p> <p>“I accidentally spilled my coffee when I came here. I’m just borrowing a dress. She can’t be that petty, can she?”</p> <p>When I looked at the white dress that Lynda was wearing, I couldn’t help but feel irritated. Although I was unsure of the reason, I did not</p> <p>like it.</p> <p>Lynda put her hands around my neck and brought her face closer to mine.</p> <p>Just as her lips were about to make contact with mine, my thoughts immediately went back to the way Natalia looked when she was wearing this dress.</p> <p>I couldn’t help but push Lynda away.</p> <p>Lynda appeared to be taken aback by the push.</p> <p>I glared at her and said,</p> <p>“Next time, don’t wear her dress; it doesn’t suit you.”</p> <p>Lynda froze for a moment. She lowered her head and nodded.</p> <p>I could see tears rolling down her cheeks. It looked like I scared her.</p> <p>But I did not care. Nobody ever had the right to have that kind of impact on me.</p> <p>However, for some reason, I was affected. I did not know what, but I felt irritated.</p> <p>I did not like it. Whenever I tried to get closer to Lynda, the image of Natalia’s face kept popping into my head.</p> <p>Why?</p> <p>By the end of each day, my mind was nothing but a muddle. That woman was pissing me off, even though she was absent from my life.</p> <p>“I’ll wait for you at the bar tonight. I heard Lynda.</p> <p>1 turned my head toward her. My eyes fell on her bare arm. On her right arm, she had a scar. I could not stop looking at that scar while thinking about those days when Lynda risked her life to save me.</p> <p>I heaved a sigh and felt regret for the way I had acted just now.</p> <p>I should not be so rude to Lynda, who saved my life.</p> <p>I walked to her and took her right hand in mine. Immediately, she turned her head and hugged me.</p> <p>I hugged her back despite the fact that I had no feelings for her.</p> <p>She loved me, so I could not just use her with my different moods. She was an important woman. I had to take care of her in every situation.</p> <p>I broke the hug and replied,</p> <p>“See you at the bar tonight.”</p> </body></html>
