Chapter 24
Nikolay:
I frowned in confusion as I tried to process what Katerina just told me.
Her eyes which I could tell avoided mine as she spoke held more fear than her hard tone let out, but I could tell that something must have happened to lead her to this.
I walked toward her room, and knocking on the door, I waited for a few seconds before she opened it, shaking her head in question.
“Is there anything that you need, Nikolay?”
“What is going on, Katerina?” I asked, frowning as I looked at her. She frowned in confusion, crossing her arms over her chest as she waited for what I had to say. But I chose to stay quiet, letting her give me her response. The fact that she was acting the way that she was, was getting on my nerves, and I was making it obvious to her that I didn’t like all this mysterious play that she was putting on.
“What is that supposed to mean?” She asked, seeing as I chose not to respond. I glared at the woman, crossing my arms over my chest, mimicking her.
“One minute you are telling me that you don’t want to go home, letting me know…”
“I never said that I didn’t want you to go home, or that I didn’t. I said, you should be patient and calm. But since you are choosing to be a dick about every word that I tell you, I would rather that we go back to your house where you would feel comfortable and wouldn’t give me a hard time whenever you find yourself losing a breath.” She snapped, glaring at me. I frowned at her behavior, and shaking my head in question, I waited for her to say something else but she chose to take a step back to the bedroom. “If there is nothing that you need, please feel free to leave.”

Chapter 24
“Did something happen that I don’t know about?” I asked, and she laughed, shaking her head.
“Do you even care what happens to me? Because at this point, I doubt you even know that I exist unless it is to forget about your ex.”
“Did Anastasia talk to you?” I asked, frowning when she mentioned her. Her eyes met mine and she shook her head, giving me the most blunt and fake smile a person could ever make.
“No, your loving girlfriend did not talk to me. Nor do I want her approaching me. I just want a peace of mind, and if I can’t get it while I am alone by your side, then might as well go back to your place. Now, if there is nothing that you need, I have a few things to tend to.” She said, wanting to close the door. I glared at her and putting my hand on the door, I pushed it open, frowning at her behavior which seemed odd.
The woman looked more frightened than confident, as she normally would have, and instead of the calm woman that I grew used to around me, I saw a frightened one who just wanted to escape or hide, and that was something that I couldn’t understand, especially since I knew how she normally was.
“What are you doing, Katerina?”
“Why does it matter, Nikolay?” She asked, giving me the same tone that I gave her.
“Is it because the two of us argued earlier? I know that,I might have crossed my limit, but are you sure that you…”
“I no longer want to keep fighting you for you, do you understand that? I want peace, and with you, I can’t seem to find it. You either end up fighting me for something your parents are doing, as if blaming me for being your wife about it. You have a girlfriend who pops up whenever the two of us are alone or can consider thinking of being alone. Your mother comes to

challenge you here. I am just sick of that. Therefore, if going back to your house, mansion, whatever bullshit you want to call it, would spare me of that, then I would take that offer.” She said, snapping at me. I took a deep breath, trying to keep myself as calm as I possibly could be as to process what the woman was going psychotic about. This being the first time that I have dealt with such a thing with her, I hoped that she was not like Anastasia when she got angry.
“I never asked you to fight me for me, nor did I ask for your pity. If you are going to go back home to simply escape being with me, then it won’t do you any good as you would be my mother’s first target. We had them. setting a restriction order for a reason, and now you are going to be the one to go to her, don’t you think they would raise questions on that? If not, do you believe that mom would let that slide? She would hurt you for simply putting the idea of doing so let alone doing it. The two of us know very well that the last thing you need to deal with right now is hell with her, and yet, you are throwing yourself in the face of danger.” I said, trying to make her understand where I was going, but she simply shook her head in response.
“I do not care what I am going to be put through. I am going through hell with you as it is, I don’t think that your mum would be any worse.” She said, taking me off guard. Her words seeming harsher than they ever were, and though I couldn’t really blame her for it, I couldn’t help but feel a pang in my chest as I processed the anger that she had toward me.
“Why are you talking like marrying me is causing you more hell than good? I know that it isn’t the best of marriages, but I doubt that I am giving you the hell that you are talking about.” I said, frowning in confusion as I looked at her. She smiled, her smile fake, holding more grudge in it than I thought a person could have. The way she looked at me told me that she wanted nothing more than to punch me in the face, and seeing her clench her fists, I could tell that this was where we were going if I kept pressing on her more than I already was.

“Marrying you is the biggest mistake that I have done to myself.” She said, making me frown before she walked toward the bed. “Regardless of everything that I could have gone through, at least I had my pride and dignity. With you, I am slowly losing them one by one, and thanks to you. I already lost my pride and reputation as a wife.”
“Katerina…”
“Please. Nikolay, if there is nothing that you want to add, I would please like to stay alone…”
