Ahh, I see…! He's gonna play that card with me. Telling me how unwanted and unworthy I was... blah blah blah. But the thing is that pretty much sums up our relationship. I mean, we are both lusting after each other like horny dogs, and this marriage was nothing but a sham because of some inheritance.
However, his words do sting a bit, and it's my reality. Thank you, Tori, for slapping it right at my face all day. I'm almost unaffected now.
Elias fixed me with a pointed stare, probably because my expression was neutral to his insults. Right, I should look offended. I'm not very good at acting, but my lying skills are improving faster because my life has become so messy lately.
"I know about the inheritance, but it has nothing to do with that. What Ares feels for me is beyond anything you'd ever understand."
Okay... maybe I was way over the top there.
"What do you know about this inheritance?"
Shit! I don't know anything about it.
