Matthew said angrily, "Yes, I hit you!"
Tessa immediately became furious. "Matthew Grant, how dare you hit me!" she shouted. "What kind of man hits a woman?"
Matthew responded coldly, "If you keep up with your disgusting act, I'll hit you again. You'd better drop it this instant!"
Upon hearing that, Tessa trembled with anger. In the past, Matthew would agree to anything she asked.
Tessa couldn't believe he was disgusted by her. She felt like everything in the world had been turned completely upside down!
She suddenly realized how terrifying it was to be with someone who didn't love her. Tessa felt an overwhelming wave of regret for initiating the divorce.
She desperately regretted parting with such a good man. She also realized that she had turned a gentle and devoted man into someone violent and cold-blooded.
Matthew saw Tessa still standing there, unmoving. He shouted, "Get lost! Are you waiting for me to kick you out?"
Tessa trembled as Matthew yelled at her, feeling for the first time the terror he could instill in her. Standing in front of Matthew, she felt like a mouse facing a lion, utterly powerless to resist.
When her eyes met Matthew's icy gaze, she was so frightened that she quickly turned and walked away.
She was deathly embarrassed, like a dog with its tail between its legs.
Matthew's face twitched slightly, with his veins showing on his forehead.
Every time he encountered Tessa since his release from prison, he felt like he was losing control.
Seeing this, Elliott sighed. "I didn't expect it to turn out like this." He then said, "Calm down, Matthew. Since you're already divorced, don't let her continue to affect you like this."
Matthew too sighed deeply. He understood these words well, but Tessa always seemed to disrupt his life.
Elliott suddenly remembered something. "Matthew, if she comes to me again for a loan, should I give it to her or not?"
Matthew glanced at Elliott. Despite being over ten years older than Matthew and in his 40s, Elliott still addressed him with such politeness. Matthew appeared somewhat helpless.
