Victoria thought for a moment, didn’t continue questioning, but instead played the emotional card.

“… you and Ferris have been married for over three years, and you haven’t even given him a child. Do you know how the outside world sees him? I hope you consider others and don’t be so selfish.”

Selfish…

I revealed a sarcastic smile. Who exactly was being selfish?

When there were no children before, how come she never thought to ask her son about it.

“I said, you should go find Ferris about these matters. It’s not that I’m unwilling to leave.”

Victoria hadn’t expected this kind of attitude from me now, and walked up to me: “Is this the attitude you have when speaking to your elders?”

I gently pushed the check to his side: “I’m returning it to you.

Ferris took it, glanced at it, and casually threw it into the trash can beside him. The paper made a slight sound against the metal walls. His gaze returned to my face, falling on that patch of reddened allergic skin, his eyes growing even deeper.

“Your choice is correct,” his tone was cold, “even if you had filled in a number, Iwouldn’t have honored it.”

He wanted to snuff out any hope I had of escaping in its infancy.

My hand tightened under the table, fingertips almost digging into my palm.
