Love Game With The Rebel Billionaire

Chapter 123: If I Can’t Have You, Then I’ll Kill You

It was a lie. But if that lie would protect my children, I'd tell it without hesitation. I might be selfish, especially on days when Chiara and Thunder asked about their father, but I couldn't let them have him. I'd do everything to keep them safe. I could be both their mother and father. I could protect them.

"It hurts me too, so stop acting like you're the only one suffering," I replied coldly. "You're the one who started this fire in the first place."

"And why are you acting like the victim here, Ash?" I asked sharply.

"What do you mean by that?"

I crossed my arms and smirked before answering. "You said you didn't shoot me, right? Then prove it. Because it's hard to believe you didn't when it was your face I saw five years ago, pulling the trigger." The memory played over and over in my head. Despite the darkness that night, the moonlight and streetlights were enough to show me his face.

"It was you," I said firmly. "Until you prove otherwise, you'll remain a suspect in my eyes."
