I turned my head away, no longer looking at her, and instructed the security guard to quickly remove her.
I never want to see her again, in this life or any other!
Callie sobbed and refused to leave, but Donavan suddenly appeared and slapped her hard across the face.
"What are you crying for? Have you no shame?"
"Come back with me and turn yourself in. You must face the consequences of your actions!"
Donavan calmly dragged her away, giving Seraphina and me a long, deep look before leaving.
As if he had a thousand words to say, but in the end, he only uttered:
"I'm sorry."
Neither Seraphina nor I understood the meaning behind his words.
I was too exhausted to ponder it further; after all, having narrowly escaped death, being alive was enough.
Under Seraphina's meticulous care, I recovered quickly and was discharged from the hospital.
The day I was released, we immediately went to the courthouse to get our marriage license.
