Just as I grabbed Mia’s jeans, a savage roar came from the outside.
“Where the hell are you? What the hell are you doing in the middle of the day?”
The moment I heard this, I knew that Billy, that bastard, was back. I immediately blew my top. I clenched my fists harder. I wanted to rush out and settle the scores with him.
Before I could act, though, Mia grabbed my hand and anxiously said, “James, hide quickly. If Billy finds out about us, he’ll beat me to death!”
Mia’s words calmed me down a little. She was right. If I appeared before Billy in this kind of state, it would definitely give that bastard another reason.
I hurriedly nodded in agreement and looked around for a place to hide. It was only the closet beside me that was suitable for hiding. I quickly entered it and hid myself.
