"Hayley is my future wife, and she is my woman right now. If you continue Whave to leave for to speak ill of her, with the tbeing." My voice was cold and firm. "Sigh... "Axel sighed, shaking his head. "I told you, you shouldn't have pushed him so hard." "Not like you know anything! This is all Hayley's fault!" Odessa's voice went hysterical.
