Breaking the silence after a moment, he asked, "Sabrina, you're trying to provoke me on purpose, aren't you?

“Why would I want to provoke you?" Sabrina raised her eyebrows. "To me, you're just an ex-husband I've parted ways with. If not for Jennie, would we even cross paths? Don't flatter yourself too much. And the reason I declined Jennie in the car today? Because I no longer wish to see you. If you genuinely care for her, stay away from me. If not, don't blame me when I keep her away for good."

Tyrone's heart felt like it had been punched, aching so much that he struggled to catch his breath.
