Chapter 58: Mistakes Still Hurt

"Ella!"

I stare out of the car, unable to look at the man beside me.

"Ella," George says slowly, trying to get me to turn back to him.

I don't want to, though. All of his betrayals and his neglect of me in the past hurts too damn bad. The fact that he probably cheated on me with Charlotte is just the cherry on top. He tries to place his hand on my leg, but I flinch away.

"George, please don't," I say, my voice betraying how shaken I am. My mind swirls, and I don't even know what to think. I don't know what to do.

"Come on, Ella," George says, his own voice cracking, holding just a hint of annoyance. "You know it was an accident."

"Really?" I snap, finally turning towards him as his words spark anger in me. "How do you accidentally sleep with another woman, George?"

"I was drunk!" George snaps back. "And I'm not even completely sure I actually slept with her. I didn't know what I was doing, obviously."
