So much for a reunion party.

(ARIELLE'S POV)

Gasps of shock rented the hall as Jared delivered blows upon blows on the man, that for a moment I feared he would kill him. I was stunned to see Jared in such a position; because for all the years we've been married, never for once had I seen him engage in a verbal

exchange not to mention a physical scuffle with someone.

I was appalled at the sight of his now red eyes, clenched fists and tightened jaws. His hair was now ruffled, and a button of his shirt had fallen off, giving him a wild and dangerous look.

Regaining composure, I screamed at the people who stood on the side, watching two men fight without making any move to stop them. "Stop them!"

But no one moved; it seemed like they were all scared to offend Jared.

"Are you all deaf? Stop them, please," I yelled. At this point, my eyes had grown misty at how battered the other man looked. Jared, on the other hand looked okay, save for his missing shirt button, scattered hair, and rumpled shirt. When no one made any move, I had to resort to the only option I had, even if it was a stupid and dangerous thing to do. Without a second thought, I lunged myself at the two men, using my body as a barrier.

That was all it took to stop Jared. He paused, his chest heaving up and down while he eyed the man behind me. "Move away, Arielle! I don't want to hurt you."

"Exactly! I know you would never hurt me, and that's why I'm not moving an Inch. Stop this madness, Jared. Please, let him be."

"That bastard laid his hands on you. I'm gonna kill him," Jared sneered.

"Well he wouldn't have, if you hadn't ditched me at a party you brought me to!" I yelled, before I could stop myself. Murmurs rose in the air, as the now seemed more interested in Jared's and my fight than the one they refused to separate. Jared made to say something but was interrupted by the voice of the man behind me, if not that now, he was no longer behind him. He had stepped away, although he kept a safe distance from Jared.
