I wanted to rush at her again to make her feel my pain, but I forced myself to stay calm.
"True colors? Are you blind, Max? Can’t you see who the real evil person is in this room? Or do you get along because you’re both evil?" I mumbled.
"Enough, Carrie! Don’t force me to punish you!" Max yelled.
"I’m not the one causing trouble here, Max. Lalaina is the real destroyer—a homewrecker. But you just let her ruin our family! Don’t worry. I’m letting you be with her, and I don’t care what you two do anymore!"
Slowly, I began to stand and make my exit, but Max grabbed my arm again.
"You can’t leave without apologizing to Lalaina!" he commanded.
I couldn’t help but let out a sarcastic laugh. "No way! I would never apologize. I didn’t do anything wrong. I’m just giving her a taste of her own medicine!" I insisted.
Suddenly, Max yanked me forward and pushed me down in front of Lalaina. He forced me to kneel, and I stumbled to the ground.
"Do it now! Don’t make me lose my patience!" he grunted, forcefully yanking me down.
I looked up at Lalaina, who was grinning. "Apologize to me, Carrie." She demanded.
