No Divorce? The Billionaire's Love Chase! novel Chapter 10

York's patience snapped. He gripped her wrists. "Claudia, this nonsense has to have a limit."

Even her whims and occasional tantrums he could tolerate—but not this, not this hysteria.

He couldn't communicate with her like this.

Claudia's emotions spiraled. "I've always been like this! Have you only just met me?"

York remained calm. "Is it really worth all this over a single bracelet?"

Like a wild animal, she started throwing things aimlessly. "York, you know damn well what you've done!"

She burst into tears, pushing him towards the door. "You didn't want to come back, did you? Then go! Get out!"

York turned and pulled her into an embrace. "Stop it. You're going to hurt yourself."

Just then, the untimely vibration of York's phone shattered the tension.

The way he hurriedly ended the call was like pouring gasoline on the fire for Claudia.

She lunged for his phone. "Answer it! Aren't you so busy with work? Go on, answer your phone!"

Claudia couldn't take it anymore.

When York refused to give her the phone, she bit him.

A sharp pain shot through his hand, and he flung her away. Claudia lost her balance and crashed to the floor.

A dull thud echoed through the room, followed by an abrupt, deafening silence.

York's chest heaved. He looked at Claudia, lying motionless on the floor, her hair in disarray, and turned away, exhausted.

When she was little, she was mischievous, but her sweet words could charm anyone.

As she grew, she was a vision of youthful innocence and beauty, turning heads wherever she went.

Later still, she was all fire and passion, clinging to him, demanding kisses and hugs, loving him openly and loudly.

After they married, she gradually shed her youthful impetuousness, acquiring the gentle consideration of a wife. She became obedient, and started learning how to take care of him.

At every stage of her life, she had been radiant, dignified, and proud.

She had never, ever acted like a shrew, screaming and raging at him hysterically.
