My Wife or My Pride?

When everything had quietened down, Wyonna walked up to Shane and took a deep breath. "I barely spoke two sentences to Louis. It's not what you think it is. And thank you for visiting my grandfather today, I..." The second Wyonna saw Shane appear from the ward, she had already forgiven him.

What she didn't expect was Shane's coldness towards her. He interrupted her harshly, hissing, "You don't need to thank me. It's written clearly in the contract that we have to appear, and act married in front of the family when the occasion calls for it. Unlike someone else, I take these clauses very seriously!"

He turned on his heels at once and left Wyonna alone. Looking on as he walked away, tears welled up in her eyes. Was it because of the contract again? He didn't really come to reconcile with her.

Shane instantly regretted it th e moment he turned his back on her.
