Chapter 7 " Gavin , you're absolutely revolting ! " " If you don't sign the divorce papers , we'll go to court . " " After all , I have all the evidence of your affair saved . " With that , I turned away from him and grabbed Luciana's hand . " Luciana , weren't you saying you wanted to take me to that male model club ? " Luciana had been suggesting the male model club for a while . I'd never been in the mood before , but today , I felt like a weight had been lifted off my chest . A man like Gavin wasn't worth dragging myself down for . The dimly lit male model club was filled with noise and chaos . I let myself sink into the atmosphere , swaying to the rhythm without thinking . " Hannah , look ! That male model is six foot two ! " " Do you like him ? " " If you do , have him keep you company for the night , " Luciana teased in my ear . I didn't catch what she said and leaned closer , nearly tripping in the process . " Careful ! " A deep male voice , warm and steady , accompanied by the feel of a firm chest . I had fallen into a strong , hormone - charged embrace . But before I could process it , an angry shout broke through the noise , " Let her go ! " " Let go of my wife ! " Gavin's face was dark as he gripped my wrist tightly . " Who's your wife ? " " I don't know you ! " I shook off Gavin's hand and took a few steps back . But he closed the distance , step by step , until I was cornered against the wall . " Sweetheart , I know you're still angry , but you shouldn't be in a place like this . " " Come home with me ! " Disdain and disgust for the club filled Gavin's eyes . He wrapped an arm firmly around my waist , dragging me toward the exit . That familiar scent hit me again - the one that belonged to Nicole . It was sharper , more pungent , and even more nauseating . Smacki I slapped him again , without hesitation . " Hannah Gavin let go of me , staring in shock and disbelief . Perhaps , in his mind , I was always the docile one - the one who quietly endured everything , But women aren't inherently that way . And I certainly am not . " Gavin , I'll say this one last time : I want a divorce ! " I shouted , my voice loud and clear , just as the music in the club paused . Every eye in the bar turned toward us . Annoyed , Gavin adjusted his glasses , ignoring Luciana's attempts to stop him , and lifted me into his arms , carrying me out of the club . " Gavin ! Let me go ! " I pounded his chest with all the strength I could muster , not holding back . " Ugh … " Gavin finally stopped . He set me down beside the car , hunched over , and began coughing violently . " COUGH , COUGH , COUGH … " The sound was harsh and relentless , as if he was seriously ill . In the past , even the slightest sign of discomfort from him would send me into a panic , rushing to care for him . Now , I stood there calmly , even letting out a small laugh . " Sweetheart , I'm not well . My stomach hurts again . Will you come home with me ? " " Can you make me some pear syrup , just like before ? " Leaning against the car , Gavin's red - rimmed eyes looked at me pleadingly . Under the dim streetlight , his face was pale , his lips devoid of any color . He was even still wearing the clothes I had vomited on that morning . He looked pitiful . But what did his misery have to do with me ? Though , I did need to go back to grab something . I gave Luciana a meaningful glance from afar before opening the car door and sliding into the seat . " Let's go . " Gavin's eyes were filled with disbelief , but he quickly started the car , as if afraid I'd change my mind the next second . I ignored him and sent a message to Luciana from the backseat . " Luciana , don't worry about me . I'm just going back to grab something . Wait for me downstairs later . " After sending the message , I closed my eyes to rest . But I could feel Gavin's gaze repeatedly shifting toward me . We AOK Chapter 7 I knew he was watching me , and the thought made me nauseous . I turned my head to face the window . In the faint reflection on the glass , I saw his bandaged left hand , the gauze stained once again with fresh , red blood . Yet Gavin seemed entirely unaware , a faint smile lingering on his lips . Until a ringtone abruptly interrupted his smile .
