Didn’t you come home every night? Do you dare say that you weren’t addicted?” Mason couldn’t deny it. This photo was the best evidence of his indulgence. For three years of marriage, he despised Zoe, yet was addicted to her body. It was he who tormented Zoe for three years. It was him. Outside, the rain continued to fall gently.
