Chapter 8

Dane has entered the investigation phase, and Seraphina is making a fuss about wanting to see me.

That day, I had just been discharged from the hospital and had fully recovered.

She came right to my doorstep, so I had my men tie her up. The Huntington family was already done for, and the Langdon family was preoccupied with their own problems. Dane had no time to deal with her now, and he might not even bother with her affairs at all.

"What do you want, Felicity, you vicious, wicked woman?"

"You're just jealous of me, jealous that Dane loves me."

"Shut up." I raised my hand and slapped Seraphina's face with a resounding smack.

Remembering the pain when she stomped on the back of my hand that day, and all the scenes of her framing me, I wished I could teach her a harsh lesson right then and there.

But it wasn't worth dirtying my hands for someone like her.

I slapped her several more times, but it still wasn't enough to vent my anger.
