A Monster's Mute Bride. chapter 90
Ella Smith...I rocked myself back and forth while sitting on the chair in front of the monitor. My eyes were planted on the little box that showed a perfect view of the garden.I watched with burning eyes, wondering if Elijah would be fine out there all by himself. My eyes jumped to the monitor that showed what was happening in front of the room that leads in to the basement.The duct tape was still on the camera, preventing me from looking in to the basement. But the camera in the room that leads down to the basement still had a perfect view.I was glad to see that the large painting was back in place, hiding the door of the basement.I returned my eyes to the garden and watched as Elijah and Detective Kevin had a conversation. I really wished I would be able to listen to what they were talking about.Nerves were building in my chest, too scared that the determined detective might take my husband away from me."Don't worry, Ella," Cane commented as he stood behind me and look

I sat in the back seat of the car with Elijah beside me. He had his head turned towards the window of the door on his side, his eyes distantly watching the road.My right knee uncontrollably bounced up and down, and my eyes jumped from Elijah to Cane and then back to Elijah. Despite having too much on his mind, he still reached his left hand over and rested it on my knee, giving it a gentle squeeze.The look on his face when he accepted the call from the hospital kept popping in my head.The expression on his face was calm and still, and almost nonexsiting. But the gaze he had in his eyes was that of a haunted person's gaze."Hello... This is he." Elijah had answered after he picked the phone up and pressed it to his right ear."Yes." He had called out before that haunted gaze entered his eyes."Is that so? Alright, I'll be there." He'd commented before he hung up the phone."What was that?" I had signed, frightened by the gaze in his eyes.I recalled what Elijah said to me once he wa

I sat by Cilvia's bedside and looked down at her. With her eyes closed and the frown between her eyebrows gone, she looked quite peaceful.I let out a soft sigh before I looked towards the window where Elijah was standing next to Cane.The two were having a hushed conversation, and I could barely listen to what they were saying to each other. I looked back at Cilvia again. She was moved to a private hospital room after Cane made the request. The doctor came here to let us know that she was in a bad condition, but the surgery was successful, and they were able to save her.Elijah had wanted to take Cilvia out of the hospital and return home, claiming that Doctor Morgan would look after her. But thankfully, Cane was able to talk him out of it.It would not be right to take Cilvia to the mansion when it is washed with blood.A few minutes later, the door of the private room slid open, and I turned around just in time to see Dante walking in with another man following him from behind.I

I looked at Cilvia with sad eyes. After speaking to Elijah and telling him that the man who attacked her had a viper tattoos behind his right ear, indicating that it was one of the vipers who had taken her phone from her, she passed out again.Elijah looked like he was about to turn the entire room upside down. He'd looked at me with dark eyes before he stepped closer."Stay here, okay? I need to make a phone call." He had commented before he walked out of the room.Elijah left my phone with me, and the only thing I could do was sit down at Cilvia's bedside and look through the phone.I stared at the short conversation I shared with Cilvia in the midst of the attack with a frown on my face. Whoever took her phone knew that I would listen to her and leave Elijah's bedroom. They knew I would follow her orders when it came down to something like that because they knew I would trust my mother-in-law with my life.I mean, I did trust her with my life until I heard about the childhood she

I sat there and watched as tears filled Cilvia's eyes and escaped from the corner of her lids, running down the side of her head.Her gaze was still planted on Cane, and she looked at him with utmost apology."I'm really sorry, Cane. I'm sorry I treated you so horribly. If I had known what you went through..." Cilvia softly started, but Cane cut her off."Nothing would have changed." He commented as he looked at her with blank eyes, still sitted at the edge of the bed."You would have still thought I was Alfonzo's bastard. You would have still thought I was in that mansion to take your son's place. You would have still hated me. And you would have still tried to poison me and have me killed." Cane added. "You knowing about my past and where I came from wouldn't change a thing, Cilvia. You were a mad woman, unable to see anything but the power you had as the wife of the head of the Smith's family."More tears escaped Cilvia's eyes. All she could do was whisper her apologies. Cilvia lo

Elijah Smith...I looked down at Cilvia with blank eyes as she explained what had happened to her on the previous night.Apartently she was walking towards her car when some guy suddenly walked up to her and tried to take her bag from her. Cilvia tried to save her things by fighting back. That was when the man pulled out a knife and stabbed her once.She said he'd pulled the knife out and tried to stab her again. She fought against him once more. That was when she got the cuts on her hands. But in the end, he was able to knock her out. The next thing she knew, she was waking up in the hospital.I let out a sigh as I grabbed the back of my neck. It was very obvious that someone was following Cilvia around. From what she told me, she was out with someone she met, trying to have a good night, as she'd said it.It was when she was finally isolated and alone that the man attacked her.If she'd let her bag go, I was a hundred percent sure that the man wouldn't have stabbed her.Whoever p

Ella Smith...I stood beside Cilvia's bed with my arms wrapped around myself. My eyes were trained on the two detectives who badged their way into the private room, insisting that they have to speak to Cilvia now that she's woken up."If there is anything you remember..." Detective Kevin's partner spoke alone, while Detective Kevin stood there silently.Cilvia let out a sigh."There's nothing special, really. I was walking out of a bar, it was dark, some guy tried to steal my bag but I stopped him..." She replied.The second detective shook his head."You got stabbed, Mrs. Smith. The man who brought you here said that you were passed out when he found you. If there is anything you remember about that man, then please let me know." Detective Henke commented.Cilvia glanced at the men standing in the room. They all looked like they were minding their own businesses, but I could tell that their attention was on the short conversation Cilvia was sharing with Detective Hank

I leaned my head against Elijah's shoulder. The two of us were sitting in the back seat of the car, with one of the guards driving us to the mansion.Elijah had his right arm around me, holding me close to him. He would once in a while press a kiss against the top of my head, showing me affection with no words.Cilvia and I had waited for Elijah and Cane in the private hospital room. Elijah came back a few minutes after Cane left, and he didn't say much about the man he almost caught.I was startled when I saw a small cut on his right cheek, and Elijah told me that the man caught his a bit with his knife. But Elijah said he did more damage on the man, slicing his side and arm with his own blade. The man ended up running through a busy traffic, disappearing amongst the many cars, which swallowed his limping figure.Elijah had no other choice but to return to us. One thing he said stood out to me, though, and it was that Elijah found the man who attacked Cilvia right at that spot, look
