  “You mistake me for a man who gives a fuck, Rachel. You want to play this game we will. I will break that story, and change it so it looks like I was so desperate for you, I had no choice but to make you marry me.”

  She hated him in that moment, and loved him at the same time.

  She had never been so confused and hurt in all of her life.

  “I loved you,” she said, letting the tears come back.

  “Rachel, don’t cry.”

  “And you promised to love me too, but it was all a lie. I was warned not to trust you, and I told them they were all wrong. You made me look like a fool.” She sobbed. He still held her hands above her head. “You don’t want to be with me, and I don’t want to be with you. Let me go.”

  “No.”

  “I won’t divorce you,” she said. She would agree to anything to be out of the house and away from him. “I’ll stay married and you can live your own life. We can be completely separate in all things. I don’t have to be with you. You can have the place on the board, and I can live alone, without you.”

  “What if you’re pregnant?” he asked.

  She felt a spark of hope as he considered her offer.

  She would gladly do anything right about now.

  “I doubt I am.”

  “And if you are?”

  “I’ll take care of it. I’ll love our child no matter what. You’ll never have to worry about her or him.” She didn’t want to be pregnant. “Just let me go. You don’t want me, not really. Let me go.”

  Seconds passed, and he finally let her go, stepping away from her.

  She didn’t linger as she grabbed her bags and ran downstairs.

  Rushing out of the house, she found Mary waiting for her.

  Shoving her bag into the backseat, she climbed into the passenger seat. “Get me away from here.”

  When they were outside the gate, Rachel allowed herself the time to cry.

  Pressing her hands to her face, she sobbed for everything she had hoped her fairy tale ending could be.
