My heart is even racing so hard I can

When I can’t take it anymore. I look away, but Carmella keeps moaning against Dominic’s laps and it makes my blood boil. t because I wish that couldve been me, no way in the world to want to kiss this asshole, but because this is happening

They’re both so shameless

When they finally break the kiss, she peeles as she runs her thumb along his lips that have turned red

“Habe, you ruined my lipstick” she says flirtatiously

“You know I always do” he replies with enthusiasm. “Come here

The entire time they approach me, I keep looking down, my forehead dampening from the

sweat

“Baube, meet Vanessa, my future wife on paper,” he says to her and I try my best not to show how disgusted I am.

In any other scenario, I should be smiling at her right now as we get to know each other, but how is that even possible in this ndatious situation?

“I’m assuming you’ve understood everything my boyfriend has told you” She says with crossed arms and narrowed eyes that seem like they’ll pierce through me.

“Of course.” I don’t even bother to fake a smile this time. My face is blank as I clench my fists under the table.

“Did he tell you about me?” She raises an eyebrow.

“He’s mine so stay out of our way.” She purses her lips and pokes out her hip. “I should be the one getting married to my boyfriend, not you.”

“Babe, come on, we talked about this.” He stands behind her and wraps his arms around her gently.

I just hate that it’s not me.” She pouts.

“That doesn’t change anything and you know it” He kisses her on the cheek.

“Did you hear that? In private, he’s mine.” She smirks at me.

I cant help but smile at the situation and it’s not because I’m amused in any way. I just don’t want to stay here any longer. I’ve seen enough of them

Tilbe leaving now” I sigh deeply as I rise to my feet, clutching my purse after picking it up from the table.

I didn’t say you could leave,” he says to me harshly and his gaze is threatening.

“But I thought we discussed everything” I shrug, wondering why else he still wants to keep me there.

Just so I can watch the two of them? Absolutely not

“Not

“Not quite everything has been discussed,” he says. “You and my babe need to discuss your friendship.”
