Maximus’ Pov:
I swear, I’m going to punch Raymond the next time I see him. Why the hell did he tell Jess I was at the office when I wasn’t? Was that the best excuse he could come up with?
Now she’s following me around the house like I’m some kind of criminal, nagging in my ear every second.
Honestly, this is all my fault. If I hadn’t divorced Selene, I wouldn’t be stuck with Jess and all her damn paranoia.
She’s even worse than my father ever was. At least I don’t have to live with that old man anymore. But now, I’m stuck with Jess.
I can’t divorce her, though. I can’t do that to my daughter. I don’t want her to grow up in a divided home.
It’s already hard enough. She’s missing me so much, and it tears me up. Jess’s constant pressure is the reason I don’t come home on time anymore.
