Claudia POV
All I could do was stare at him while holding back my sobs. Maybe there was a part of me that wanted to work out this marriage somehow, but then I realized there was nothing to salvage, because Miles didn't want it in the first place.
To be called a naïve bitch after giving all my dedication was truly a cruel joke. He made it seem as if my sacrifices amounted to nothing.
Miles finally turned around and sank back into his seat, staring at the sports channel, then waved the beer bottle at me, "Remember to think about the offer that I made. You either give up everything and become a fuckmaid, or get a divorce and lose custody over Aurora while rotting in jail."
"And if you refuse—" Miles turned his head to face me again, a wicked smile on his face. "—then you'll be in prison. I can't guarantee Aurora's safety once you're not here, Claudia."
I had never been so enraged in my life. I wanted to go over there and slap him for what he had just said.
