---- Chapter 124 My bottom lip trembled in shock. He was seriously punishing me for something that | hadn't done. The world around me was growing fuzzing as my vision blurred. A horrible wave of nausea was rushing through me. "Alexander, stop," | whispered weakly.

I'd always leave feeling ashamed and hating myself for not being the way that | was expected to be.

Alexander tore through me without a single moment of hesitation while not paying an ounce of attention to the fact that we were all there, very much in public. Yet, he kept going. He kept shouting and making all these false accusations about me and Michael. Michael, who appeared far more collected than me, simply looked at his Stepbrother as though this entire situation was humorous. Maybe to him, it was. But me? | was desperate to crawl under the nearest rock and never show my face in this place ever again. ---- Michael finally stepped up.

"Alright, are you done making your wife into a social pariah?" he asked Something dangerously lethal flashed across Alexander's eyes. "Michael, the only reason I'm not having you dragged out of here by the collar of your shirt is because | have no patience to deal with Caroline's excessive complaining," he growled back. " You're smart, you'll leave. And if you're really smart, you'll never make an attempt to see Evelyn again." Michael clenched his jaw. "I'll leave. But may | suggest putting ona suit of armor for when Evelyn sets you straight?

Everyone around us kept staring, making me feel ten times ---- worse than needed. | was shoved into the back seat of the car while Alexander instructed the driver to take us straight home. The ride back was unbearable. Every word he threw at me felt like a slap to the face. Every accusation had me feeling ashamed and worthless. I'm being punished. That's what this is...He's punishing me by humiliating me in public like this.

| refused to speak or even so much as look at him even though | could clearly feel his eyes burning into me. When we crossed through the main gates, something inside of me snapped. Most of my shock wore off which only left me feeling a deep sensation of pure, unbridled rage. My hands remained clenched into fists and the rest of my muscles were locked in an intense feeling of vexation. As soon as the car came to a stop, | threw the door open and charged my way toward the front doors. Alexander's booming voice was quick to call after me.
