All Chapters of He Hurt Me, Now He Wants Me Back: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Damien ShawOf all people, it’s her. Imogene’s so-called best friend. The one I’ve been avoiding for months, and for good reason. I step out of the car, my feet hitting the pavement with more force than I intend. I’m still a little drunk, and it’s hard to keep my balance as I stagger toward her. “Elinor,” I call out, my voice rough and filled with irritation. “What the hell are you doing walking around like that? I almost ran you over.”She turns slowly, a smirk playing at her lips as she saunters toward me, completely unfazed. “Well, well, look who’s finally come around.”I narrow my eyes, trying to read her. There’s something about the way she looks at me, like she knows more than she’s letting on. And I’ve always known she’s not as good as she pretends to be. After all, she tried to get with me right after Imogene left town. Of course, I never told Imogene about it. I run a hand through my hair, frustration still burning under my skin. “What do you want, Elinor?”She steps cl

Damien Shaw The only words my mind has been able to piece together all morning is “shit”. Because, well, things are definitely gonna go to shit after I hooked up with Elinor last night. Elinor!! Imogene’s best friend.Speaking of Elinor, she’s asleep in my bedroom while I continue to pace back and forth the livingroom. I can’t bring myself to think straight or think of a solution out of this. She’s probably going to tell Imogene about it, give or take. Imogene is engaged to Keith, she wouldn’t care, would she? That makes it even more sad.I take a deep breath as I hear the faint sound of the door monitor beeping followed by the door opening. I immediately conclude it’s Breonna because she’s the only one that knows my passcode. My guess is confirmed as Breonna steps into the living room, her feet hitting the linoleum floor hard.Her fists are clenched beside her and her eyes are flashing with anger. “What the actual fuck, Damien? How could you keep something so huge from me?”I

Damien Shaw“Just tell me.” I say, my voice ragged.“It’s…Keith. Keith Jordan.”I cock my head. “Keith?”Fiona nods, her voice trembling. “He... He planned all of this. He needed Imogene to believe you had a son with me. He knew she wouldn’t marry him unless she had a reason to move on from you.”I take a step back, my mind reeling. Keith planned this? Keith? The man who just proposed to Imogene, the man she thinks she’s in love with, orchestrated this whole lie? So he could trap her into saying yes?“How low can he stoop?” I mutter, barely able to process it.Fiona doesn’t say anything, just stands there, wringing her hands. It is my fault for ever thinking highly of him. How could he? I take a deep breath, my hands curling into fists at my sides. Imogene thinks I betrayed her. She thinks I have a family with another woman because of Keith’s lies. But now... now I know the truth.And Keith is going to pay.I storm out of Fiona’s office, the anger boiling in my veins. My hands ball

Imogene ScottDamien stands up first, his eyes locking with mine. There’s a storm in them—anger, hurt, regret, and something else. Something raw that makes my throat tighten.Keith tries to stand, but he winces, clearly in pain. “Imogene,” he says, his voice soft, like he’s expecting me to run to him. But I don’t. I can’t.The officer clears her throat. “Miss Scott, you’re free to post bail for either or both of them. Though, I suggest you talk to them first.”Talk? To them? I don’t even know what to say.I step toward Damien first. My heart tugs in his direction before my brain can stop it. He’s leaning against the wall, looking down at the floor. His knuckles are bruised, and his jaw is tight, but his eyes... they’re softer now, searching mine as I stand in front of him.“What the hell happened?” I ask, my voice barely more than a whisper. Damien lets out a slow breath, running a hand through his hair. “Keith. He lied, Imogene. About everything.” His voice is rough, and there’s
