Chapter 10

Valerie's POV

After Jade left my office the previous day, I was so despondent that I wept for a while before I left the store. I got home, feeling so miserable. I called Claire, but her line was not reachable.

I missed Damian's calls on purpose because I don't want to get any explanation from him. I felt used and that was the worst part of it all.

I was about to sleep when I heard the sound of a car driving in. I looked out from my window and saw his car.

I had to suppress the urge to open the door for him. The memories of our first night flooded my mind again as I sobbed.

I just laid on the rug in the sitting room and whimpered. He knocked and shouted my name countless times but I didn't respond.

I got up and turned off all the lights because I wanted him to leave. After about thirty minutes, I didn't hear anything again. I sent him that text message with pain in my heart.

This morning at 10 am, Claire's call woke me up.
