After getting out of the car, Drover was to my right with my suitcase while Marius followed me with his hands in his pockets. I was walking in the front, looking completely like someone who was looking for a fight as I entered the villa.
What I did not expect was that Nicky had not left for the company yet despite it being so late. However, Theo was not here.
After seeing me, it was obvious that Nicky did not expect me to come again so soon. She looked behind me and shrugged her shoulders before letting out a chuckle. "You even have two protectors. What’s up? Have you come to settle the score with me so soon?"
Her smile told me how proud she was at the moment.
Yes, she had succeeded now, but I would not hold back.
I stared at Nicky, my gaze burning. “You’re wrong. I'm coming home. This is my house."
Hearing this, she looked up and laughed a little more like those arrogant villains on TV as if she had heard some big joke. Nicky gave me a dismissive look, and sarcasm laced her words. "Your house? Who else in this house knows you now?"
"Nicky, you..."
Behind me, Marius could not hold back his emotions anymore and wanted to speak up, but I did not want him to get involved in whatever was between us. Hence, I cut him off the moment he spoke.
Whatever Marius wanted to say got held in his throat because of me. He looked at me with longing in his eyes, but I shook my head. He could only give up.
