"How did you arrive in Paris without letting me know first?"
"Is that necessary now?" I retorted. "How could you allow your husband to make that trash decision? For God Sake, I am old enough to take care of myself and I don't need you both to interfere in my relationship," I said angrily.
"Laura is a nice girl from a good family; we love you so much that your father agreed to the engagement," she explained.
"God forbid! I don't need anyone's fucking attention. That is something I am capable of doing. You both dropped it when you were suppos

"Goddammit, I'm so going to kill someone here right now, who spilt out the information," I exclaimed, enraged.Pablo called "Boss." "Please don't tell me it was you," I pleaded angrily."I...im sorry_," he was still saying when I shot his left ears; that was a sign to cut to the chase and stop the fucking apologies.As he fell to his knees in agony, blood dripped from the left side of his ear.

She believes I will be gentle with her because I have allowed her to have her way.I finished a meeting and returned to the office a few hours later. The image of the girl in red flashed through my mind, and I couldn't help but feel a
