A small smile played on Theodore's lips. He was actually enjoying this.
“Well, say something!” Hamilton pressed.
Michael suppressed a laugh. “Of course you can talk back. But are you sure you want to get into a shouting match with a woman?”
“I…”
“Or are you going to accept her challenge to a fight?”
“You don’t think I can beat her, do you?”
“And what happens if you win?”
Hamilton’s eyes widened. Of course he would win. And if he won… he’d just be known as the guy who beat up a woman. But… he was the victim here!
And considering Penelope’s fighting skills, she barely counted as a woman anyway!
“Let’s be honest, this is all because you can’t get over the fact that Natalie slept with another man and had his baby! But Hamilton, don’t you forget, you were the one who cheated first! You got involved with Maria and broke Natalie’s heart, that’s why she did it! As for the baby, have you ever considered getting yourself checked out? How did some other guy get her pregnant in one night when you couldn’t after three years of marriage? You ever think you might be shooting blanks?”
Hamilton had been on the verge of exploding, but that last line pushed him over the edge.
“Penelope, you… you… say that again!”
“I said, maybe you’re shooting blanks!”
“You’re asking for a death wish, aren’t you?”
“Then come find me. I’ll be waiting!”
“I’m on my way!”
“If you don’t show up, you’re a coward!”
The line went dead. A moment later, a text with an address arrived, followed by a taunt: “You can bring friends!”
Hamilton was so angry he saw spots. He shoved the phone at Theodore.
“If I don’t go, how am I ever going to show my face in this town again?”
“If you don’t go, no one will ever know about this. If you do go, you’ll really never be able to show your face again.”
