Rift in the perfect picture

Chapter 0173

I never thought my relationship with Nicholas would turn into such a spectacle. We were all adults here. How could he still throw fists over his feelings? It was embarrassing!

Nicholas slowly turned his head to look at me. His gaze was cold as he looked at me sharply. “Did you bite me for him?”

I could taste the stench of blood in my mouth. It wasn’t because had drawn blood from his hand, but because his muscles had been so tense that my gums had started to bleed instead. He wasn’t fazed in the slightest by my bite.

I slowly lifted my gaze when I heard his question and immediately understood what had happened.

He was furious. However, it wasn’t because of his feelings, but because he thought I had cheated on him and hurt his pride. Any other man would probably not be able to stand such humiliation.

He had been so used to things going his way and had probably never been placed in such a humiliating situation–catching his wife with another man.

Nicholas tightened his grip around Pete’s neck, causing him to moan in pain while he tried to grip Nicholas‘ wrist.

Nicholas‘ anger seemed to have fueled him up and gave him an endless amount of strength even though he was injured.

On the other hand, I couldn’t understand why he was so angry when he caught what he assumed to be infidelity when he had planned to get together with another woman.

“That’s enough!” I slapped Nicholas‘ face harshly, and everything

immediately quieted down.

I grabbed one of Pete’s jackets and put it on before forcing a smile on my face. “The two of you can continue catching up. I’m leaving.”

I left Pete’s house with my back straight. I did not do anything with Pete, so I didn’t see a need for me to feel small or guilty for something that I did not do.

However, I had overestimated my body after not eating for two days straight.

Nicholas had caught up to me in a few steps as I was walking very slowly. Pete sat on the floor and punched the floor angrily. The loud thuds made my scalp tingle.

The world around me began to spin, and I felt like I had been taken away by a bandit as Nicholas carried me by my waist.

His grip around my waist was so tight that it pressed against my empty stomach, causing me to feel nauseous.

By the time I came to my senses, I had already been shoved inside of his car. I felt a chill around my body when he tore Pete’s jacket from my body and threw it outside.

When he took a closer look at me and realized I wasn’t wearing a bra, I could see his temples visibly throbbing.

The light from the streetlamps shone into the car, casting light on his face. I could even see the veins on his neck protruding out. It was a big contrast to his pale complexion.

He reached out his hands toward my neck, and I subconsciously tried to dodge as I thought he wanted to choke me.

But suddenly a ripping sound echoed throughout the tiny space, and
