I was so angry that I almost fainted on the spot.
After taking several deep breaths, I finally found my voice. “Hadwin, what are you crazy about? Do you really think you are a hot commodity? I don’t want a rotten cucumber like you! And you!” I looked at Rowena beside me. “Hadwin and I have signed a divorce agreement a long time ago. We are just waiting for the cooling-off period to get the divorce certificate. Don’t act here. If you dare to do this to me again in the future, I will not be so good-tempered.”
Hadwin and Rowena were stunned for a moment, as if they didn’t expect me to say that. Their faces were not very good. Hadwin stammered, “In this case, why did you call me?”
“I called you because the old house at home caught fire!” I was so angry that if Hadwin hadn’t asked, I would have forgotten my purpose.
Hadwin frowned and before he could speak, Rowena said first, “Fire is not a joke. Do you know how many disasters a fire may bring?”
Were you saying that I was lying? What a good way of putting the blame on someone else. I tried to calm myself down, but my voice was still trembling, “Hadwin! Don’t you understand? I called the fire truck and it was your Rowena who deliberately stopped it just to let the fire spread at home! Now many neighbors in the village are fighting the fire, but you are here flirting with this bitch? Do you think I should hit you again?”
Hadwin looked confused and still didn’t seem to believe it.
I was too lazy to talk to him, so I raised the cordon in front of me and wanted to bend down and walk in to explain to the firefighters. But I was directly held by Hadwin and Rowena on the left and right.
I turned my head angrily. “Let go of me. I don’t have time to play with you here. The fire doesn’t wait for anyone!”
Hadwin saw that I didn’t look like I was joking and quickly let go of my hand.
But Rowena refused to let go, looked at Hadwin pitifully and said, “Hadwin, how can fires be so common? How can it be such a coincidence that when there is a fire here, your house will also catch fire?”
In fact, I also wanted to say this. There were very few people in the village, almost no one. Everyone only came back during the holidays. Especially this small house, which had been abandoned for more than ten years. How could it catch fire inexplicably?
Was it possible?
