Chapter 21

Leah pov

Two weeks later

My anger seethed within me, causing me to clench my fists tightly. "Can this guy be any more shameless?" I seethed in frustration. "You must be stupid, Mr. Axel. Do your worst, I don't care. We shall meet in court in two weeks' time," I spat out, my words dripping with contempt

As i turned to walk away, i could feel the furious heat rising in my cheeks. But just as i was about to escape the situation, Axel caught my arm. "Leah," he called out, but my rage consumed me, and refused to listen to whatever he wanted to say. Without a second thought, i spun around and delivered a resounding slap across his cheek, my five fingers leaving their mark. Swiftly, I jerked my arm out of his grasp and marched away, leaving behind the stunned Axel.

As I stormed away, I could hear the sound of my heels hitting the pavement. The anger inside me was boiling, and it felt like it was taking over my entire being.
