Dear ex-Wife please be mine again

Chapter 175

Daniel’s POV

I wasn’t sorry. Not for any of it.

It didn’t matter that I was sitting there, in that hellhole, my hand cuffed behind me and blood staining my clothes. None of that mattered. I hadn’t done any of this for forgiveness. I hadn’t done any of this to be some kind of hero. No, I did it all because I wanted Christiana. I thought I was close. So close, I could taste it.

But then, just like always, things had to go south. They had to run it. I had her…well, almost. I had her exactly where I wanted her. She was so close to giving in, so damn close to being mine again.

And then the cops had to show up, and then Alex did. The bastard ruined everything.

My fists were clenched tight as I sat there, leaning against the cold wall of the cell, my teeth gritted. I wasn’t even sure what hurt more–what I had to go through that day or what I was going to have to do next.

I could still feel the sting of the punch Alex landed on me earlier, before the cops dragged me off. But that wasn’t even the worst part. No, the worst part was that I had underestimated everyone. They weren’t just after me….they wanted me broken. And they weren’t about to let me off easy.

I could hear the muffled voices of the other inmates, laughing, talking about me, sizing me up. I wasn’t some tough guy from the streets. I wasn’t some hardened criminal who could walk in there and take over. I was just a man who wanted what he wanted. And now, I was paying the price.

It wasn’t even a minute before they dragged me into the middle of the cell, throwing me to the floor like a ragdoll. I barely
