Chapter 34

(Serena's POV)

The atmosphere inside the car was tense. We just returned home from Germany, and having him in the car made the experience even scarier. We were scheduled to remain at the hotel, but he apparently changed his mind.

He was keeping silent the entire flight for eight hours, and now that he's more tense, it makes me feel uneasy.

Was I to blame?

I wanted to explain all that happened at Harold's house, but Marcus's fury took over his thoughts and feelings. Since hours ago, I had been controlling my tears from falling.

Sincere to say, I'm worried. If I utter a word, I'm worried that he'll hurt me as well. I was worried he would say I was flirting or having an affair with Harold. I also never wanted this to occur.

Here, I am a victim. I didn't intend to do that.

He turned up the engine, sending my hammering heart in my chest to the point of terror. I am afraid that if I try to stop him, he will turn all of his rage on me.

Thankfully, we made it to the mansion without incident.
