A Ruling Passion – Chapter 0525

A reply soon followed. 'For as long as you’re mine, your issues will always be my business. You have the nerve to send me a message instead of telling it to my face?'

She turned her phone off and went straight to bed. She refused to reply to his message, and she did not have the courage to face him. She did not send him that message to tell him to let Aery and Jean off the hook. She simply wanted him to stop concerning himself with her issues. Would she ever have a clean break with him?
