I Begged My Husband 99 Times to See Stardust’s Concert novel Chapter 13

I took one look at the caller ID and hung up.

Knowing Alexander, he'd be fuming that I dared to ignore him.

Then he'd sulk, pretending I didn't exist for a few days, only to come back later and make me pay for it.

"Give me a chance to laugh at him."

I rolled my eyes.

Whatever weird grudge these two had, I wanted no part of it.

The moment I answered, Alexander's voice practically blew out my speaker.

"Have you had enough of this? When are you coming back?!"

I pulled the phone away from my ear and gave William a look that said, See what I'm dealing with?

Then I sighed and answered, "I quit."

"Why would I come back?"

I stared at the phone, dumbfounded.

"You're going."
