THE BROKEN PROPOSAL
Sebastian’s POV
It took everything in me not to pick up Maria’s father by his neck and shake him. I wondered how he could treat his own daughter so poorly despite seeing how his words hurt her.
I had gotten out of my car to talk about what had happened at dinner and to know why she hadn’t said anything about her relationship to Cassandra.
“Is that really what you came all this way to say? After five years?”
She had looked so broken when she had said those words that anger had coursed through me for her. I knew how it felt to be berated by family so I understood her pain perfectly.
It was honestly for her good she had been disowned by him. Such a selfish bastard didn’t deserve her.
The man looked dejected and stood for a long minute after the elevator doors shut.
