80 Whatever it takes (1)

Delilah felt like someone had stabbed her in the chest with a knife repeatedly and then taken out her heart when they were finished. Never had her heart ached this much. One tiny mistake was costing her relationship with Rafael.

She was somehow strong enough to stand on her feet when he rejected her feelings, but to be banned from his house had her on the verge of fainting. 

"And what has your maid gotten as a punishment for what she did?" Delilah asked, clenching her fists. She wanted nothing more than to find Annalise and strangle her. Annalise should have quietly given her the dress when she asked for it. No, Annalise should not have received a gift from Rafael in the first place.

It was not fair for her to be the only one punished. She was letting go of her anger for a moment to please Rafael, but since he was pushing her out of his life, she would do as she wanted with Annalise.
