Hidden Anger

James stood there expressionlessly, staring at Nicole, who was about to get closer to him. He even stepped back as if Nicole had a contagious illness. Nicole recognized his demeanour with blurry eyes. She felt so sad that the man she adored turned out to hate her so much.

Whilst Daniel Belvedere came with the police to Nicole's residence. He walked in 5 minutes before James arrived. And now James sat in front of Daniel and behind Nicole, who chose to stand up to hug James.

"James..." Nicole murmured with her blurry eyes and a pleading expression.

"I came here to compromise with you two," James spoke firmly and briefly. He didn't want to talk too much about unneeded things.
