Leaving Him: A New Adult International Romance Serial (Angelique's Greek Book 4) Read Online Free PDF

“Yes.”
    When they got into the cool night air, Angelique strode up and down the path, agitated.
    Theo felt like his guts had fallen out. “I don’t understand,” he said. “I thought you’d be happy.”
    “Why would you think that?” she said. “For one thing, I’ve just told you that I don’t know what I’m doing with my life. Why would I want to make such a massive commitment? Why would I want you to make such a massive commitment on my behalf? Did you ever think how uncomfortable that might make me?”
    It felt like a blow to the face, but he had to admit that no, he hadn’t considered that. He was about to open his mouth and defend himself, but she carried on.
    “It’s all moving too fast,” she said. “And not only that, it’s too … like … flashy. It changes the tradition of everything. It would be a non-Bahamian owner, for a start.”
    “You’re Bahamian,” he said. “I was buying it for you.”
    “With your money,” she replied. “How am I supposed to accept a gift that huge? Without even asking me, as well. Just announcing it?”
    “Well I know now you don’t want it.”
    Angelique kept striding up and down, up and down, while Theo felt he was frozen to the spot.
    “This is just … so much pressure,” Angelique said. “So much pressure—too much.”
    Theo hadn’t felt so bad in years. It felt like his whole world was crashing down around him.  
    “Just forget I ever said anything,” he said. “Let’s go back in and eat the curry chicken and enjoy our night.”
    But Angelique had tears in her eyes. “How am I supposed to enjoy the night now? After all of this? I just can’t do this, Theo, I can’t.”
    Without warning, she turned and ran from the house and into the darkness. Theo took off after her, but she’d had a running start and he quickly lost her. There were no street lights and it was pitch dark.
    “Angelique!” he hollered, but there was no reply.
    He turned and ran back to the house to get his cell phone. As long as they were on the line, he could calm her down and get her to come back.  
    “Is everything okay?” Anna asked when he came back in.
    “She’s run off and wouldn’t answer me.” He shook his head and picked up his cell phone, dialing her number. But soon they heard her ringtone tinkling in her bedroom and his heart sank. It was all his fault; she was out there all on her own in the dark.  
    Mr. Felix was already up out of his chair. “Let’s go look for her.”
    Theo was already out the door. “Let’s go.”
