When Love Becomes a Cage by Nora

Chapter 179



"Talbot, you're sticking your nose a bit too far into my business, don't you think? Since when do I need to report my whereabouts to you?" I pulled my jacket closer around me, aiming to leave the rooftop.

Galen's hiding spot wasn't exactly Fort Knox, but thankfully, it was dark out. As long as I didn't glance in that direction, Talbot wouldn't spot him.

But Talbot blocked my path. "Where do you think you're going?"

"What's wrong with you? Can't I go back to sleep now?"

"I'm not a prisoner, am I? Since when did I lose my freedom?"

I shoved his hand away with more force than necessary. The rooftop wasn't exactly spacious, and it was only a matter of time before he'd realize someone else was up here.

Sure enough, Talbot cast a suspicious glance around the rooftop.

"Just you up here?"

"Who else? Clyde went back to the hotel."

But he stubbornly blocked the door, "Melanie, is that how you speak to your elders?"

His tone was icy, almost angry.

"Don't think just because Clyde cares about you, you can do whatever you want. This is my turf."
