Countdown to My Divorce

Her Exit 418

William pointed a finger at Rachel and bit out, “Good of you, Rachel. I’m telling you, you’ll regret this!”

Rachel bit back, “Don’t you worry, I’ll never regret divorcing you in my whole life!”

The fire in William’s chest burned brighter. When he slaumed the door shut, Ray barked angrily in his direction.

Rachel turned to look at Tyler and made no secret of her displeasure. “Why did you say what you said earlier? It’ll only cause a misunderstanding between us, especially when he’s already acting like a mad dog that might bite anytime.”
