Chapter 69: Getting Caught Part 2

"What are you telling her?" Carter's voice came out harsh and angry. "You have no right to call her and harass her like this!"

She felt the urge to take the ring off, but she couldn't find the courage to. Her heart loved him too much. She gazed up and watched him flinging his arm through the air, clearly yelling at Adalee.

Ariana watched as he jabbed his index finger through the air, yelling. His voice sounded muffled, angry, and suddenly she watched him slam his fist down on the table. She flinched and looked away with a sob. She had ruined everything. She had broken everything.
