Chapter 32: Shattered–2
She stared at me, shocked either by my deduction or my boldness. I’d been thinking about it for weeks, and it made perfect sense. Aurora could want me dead for two reasons: revenge and eliminating me from Sebastian’s life because she felt threatened by my
existence.
“How dare you!” she screamed.
“No, how dare you come to my home spouting bullshit! We’re not teenagers anymore Aurora. Grow up and act like the fucking adult you’re supposed to be. Now leave. I’m done with you.”
She was livid, her face contorted with rage. If looks could kill, I’d be joining my father in the afterlife. But I wasn’t backing down anymore. I wouldn’t let any of them walk all over
- me.
I tapped my foot impatiently. “Are you leaving, or do I need to throw you out?”
