Chapter 21 – Five Things 

 

(Anj‘s POV) 

 

I didn‘t need to spell it out. 

 

No one is supposed to know I am the wife, so I have to take off the wedding ring on my finger and sit in the passenger side, in front of the car. As much as Frank wanted to open the door for me, I shook my head and plopped myself in, so he was forced to walk to the back to open the passenger door at the back for Sky. 

 

When Sky got in, I fastened my seatbelt, leaned my head on the car‘s backrest, closed my eyes, and pretended to sleep on our way to the hospital. I could not believe I would have to feel this way. I am not supposed to feel hurt. I should not get sad, but with him around, my heart seemed to have a mind of its own, torturing my brain, making it remember everything, the way how he looked at Lalaine or how he held and kissed her. 

 

Before I could stop, I found myself sobbing in pain. I pressed my lips tighter and covered my mouth, not wanting him to hear or see me crying, but it was too late. 

 

“Frank, stop the car,” Sky said in a stern voice that Frank had to slow down the car and stop the vehicle to the side. “Get out!” 

 

Was he asking me to get out or Frank? My eyes welling with tears opened, wanting to turn my head to him to check who he was referring to. 

 

“But Sky,” Frank panicked, staring at me with pity. When my eyes met Frank‘s, I didn‘t need to look at Sky. It was evident in his driver‘s eyes that he was telling me to get out of the car, not him. My heart was screaming in anger that I unfastened my seatbelt, turned to Sky, and threw the wedding ring in his face. 

 

Frank gasped when the ring hit Sky‘s forehead, and we both heard him growling at me, but before he could say anything, I opened the car‘s door and ran on the sidewalk, ignoring him calling me. I have never hated anyone in my life, and I didn‘t know exactly what I did to the angels or the saints in heaven for me to suffer like this. 

 

here, I could see the tall building of the hospital, and I realized that he got annoyed with my cry and wanted me to get out of the car because we were almost near the area. Still, I wanted to punch him in the face. If not for Steve Mars,
