"You and Matthew are back together, aren't you? So, was it him who made you say these things to me?"
"Scarlett, have you forgotten the pain after your wounds healed? Have you forgotten what he has done to you? Have you forgotten how you were shivering cold when you called me last night?"
"If you've forgotten, then let me remind you." Knox's face grew darker, his eyes seemed to harbor a massive storm ready to erupt at any moment, "When I saw you, you were curled up like a stray dog in the corner against the wall, shivering from the cold. At that moment, do you know how distressed and angry I was? How much I wanted to beat Matthew Saxon up?"
"The woman I want to care for, to cherish, he ends up bullying like this."
"Scarlett, have you forgotten the pain after your scars healed? It's not even a day yet, and you've decided to forgive him?" Knox grew more furious as he spoke.
His anger was mixed with the heartbreak of rejection and a genuine frustration at her lack of resistance.
