Honey You Are My Lucky Star (Callen and Chelsea) novel Chapter 86

After all, I've lived with him a long time. I want to forget his smell, but I can't.

Callen puts me against the wall and grabs my neck with one hand. He smiles with satisfaction. "So you still miss me."

"Stop dreaming." I explain, "It's just that I know you so well."

"I love it when you pretend you don't care about me."

As he speaks, he gets close to my face. In order not to kiss his face, I turn my head and look at the other side.

I taunt him. "Shouldn't you be with Maisy now?"

"You've been the only thing on my mind lately. As soon as I close my eyes, I think of you. I miss you so much that I came here as soon as I got off work." He caresses my cheek gently.

I can't see his face clearly. If I could, I might be disgusted by his so- called affectionate eyes.

I won't believe a word he says. Can I trust a man who killed his unborn child and

abandoned his wife?

I smile at him and speak softly, "Callen, do you think I'll believe you?"

"Won't you? You must know how I feel. How can you suspect me?" he questions.

"Only fools will believe you." After that, I chuckle and push him away.

He didn't see that coming, so he looks shocked.

It's late and I'm alone with him in my house. I need to be on guard in case he does something to me.

He frowns and looks at me. "It's that what you really think?"

"I remember exactly what I heard on your doorstep that day. You think I will be with someone who killed my mom?"

"I didn't! I've told you this a million times." He gets a little excited.

I don't know why he's so excited. "But it's up to me whether I believe you or not."

"Chelsea, you can't be so cruel to me. Your mom is dead and that's not gonna change. Can you just let it go?" He looks sincere.

If he were Harrison, I might listen to him. But now I just feel sick.

I feel ashamed for this hypocrite!

I sneer. "Enough. You standing in my house is an insult to my mom. Please get out of here. My mom and I don't want to see you again." "Isn't it better to let bygones be bygones?" he asks.
