Chapter 7
As the two brothers hurled accusations at her, Megan chose to shed her pretense. She wiped her tears away and met their gaze.
Her eyes were ablaze with resentment.
“What do you mean by ‘brought you along‘? Haven’t you always included me in everything? Why should I be kept at a distance just because you two got married? I won’t allow it!
“I never opposed your marriage, but why did you have to choose this moment, right after my breakup? Do you have any idea how painful it is for me to see you both get married?
“When I was heartbroken, you both promised to help me through it. Yet now, all the misery I feel comes from you!
“When I cut those ropes, I only wanted to test my worth in your eyes. But let me ask you, did I force you to come and save me? Did
I force you to abandon your wives?
“You did that willingly! And now you blame me? How is that fair?
“A man should maintain a respectful distance from other women. It’s the most basic form of respect toward his wife. You failed
to do that, and now you want to pin the blame on me? It’s disgusting.”
