"Did you grow a backbone in all that time I was away? Or has the likeness of your husbands towards you made you pompous?" Mu Yang asked through clenched teeth. If someone ever told him that the woman who chased him for years without fail would say such harsh words to him, he never would have believed it. This was the same girl who would kiss his teeth when he demanded no matter where they were. The same woman whom he neglected yet still stuck to his side.
