Three days later, Ellen enters the room where he had held her captive. The environment is gloomy and dull, making the space even more dismal. He smirks a little, thinking about how perfect the setting is for her. But to his utter surprise, he does not find any sign of her in that room. He only sees the broken window and several pieces of shattered glass on the floor, which makes him clench his fists in anger and frustration. "So, you dared to run away from my cave?" He says this, fuming with anger, while still smiling amusingly and thinking about her energy level. "Interesting! A vulnerable deer has escaped from the lion's cave! Remarkably interesting! It'll be fun to make your life more challenging." Ellen comes out of the house angrily and goes to the men he's kept to keep an eye on her."So, she's managed to escape, keeping you all muscle men here?" He shouts at them angrily, causing all of them to instantly lower their heads in submission. "Find her now; otherwise, y'all know what
"Please marry my son, Judy!" As she gazes into Judy's eyes with tears streaming down her face, Isabella makes a sudden and absurd request that causes Judy to fall from the castle. This request is the first that has caused such immense emotional pain for Judy. In response, she quickly withdraws her hand from Isabella's grasp, and the experience feels like the entire world is shaking around her. Despite her efforts, words fail to form in Judy's voice."Judy, I know it's hard for you, but my son isn't bad.""I-it's not like that, but I can't fulfill your request; please forgive me. If you want my life, I can give it to you, but please don't tell me to marry your son; I'm so sorry." With a voice that trembles with emotion, Judy manages to speak, but takes Isabella's hand once again."I'm begging you, Judy! What would you do if your mom requested you like that?""Please, don't make it hard for me? You know I love-" She can't complete her sentence because Isabella John has stopped her."I k
"Just don't you dare tell her name in front of me, Ellen! I'm warning you! And you're going to get married to someone beyond your standard!" She scowls at him defiantly, which makes the situation hard for him. "What if I don't want to? I don't need anyone beyond my status; I just need my love; bring her back to me if you can!" He keeps speaking arrogantly in front of his mother; his every word is hurting her like a needle is being pushed into her heart, but she doesn't show it."Ellen, don't test my patience!" The room becomes filled with her shouts as anger takes over."What is it, mom? You can't force me; I'll marry only my love. I'm not that type of boy who'll forget his love just because his mom is saying so."Ellen's mom slaps him tightly, causing him to turn his face aside. He holds his face with one hand, and his aura changes to purple with rage."You know it's the difference between you and her—a girl who just sacrificed her love for me even though I'm nothing to her, and here
With her beating heart, she stands against her would-be husband. She has no courage to look at him. In a while, their marriage ceremony gets started. She hears the marriage oath being read, but she keeps searching for Smith under her veil. She knows she is doing wrong, but for the last time as his lover, her heart is searching for him. She is going to lose him forever in a while, but her heart can't accept this. Unfortunately, she doesn't find him anywhere."He left; my love has left me!" Deep in thought, the marriage oath is not even heard properly until her name is called."Gracia Judy, do you take Ellen John as your lawful husband?" Until then there was little hope, but it is the end, she has to give up on her love."I do!" She utters. "Okay, you both are officially husband and wife from now on, you two can kiss now."As the veil is lifted from her face by her husband, she suddenly finds her world shattered when she sees his angry and smirking face. Trembling, she realizes that th
His accusations make her chuckle, but he suddenly storms out of the room, locking the door from the outside. "C'mon, open the door." She shouts in a high voice but doesn't hear any response. After waiting for a while, she still hears no response from him. Entering the washroom, she looks through the mirror. Even though the mirror is clean, the disgusting one there is the one she considers herself because of her neck, which is bearing his hickeys. She has no idea how she will go on with her life.The day's passed, and night has arrived to embrace their territory with another task for the bride and groom: their photoshoot.The flickering sounds and lighting of the cameras from various angles do not allow the bride and groom to wink for a moment. The grip of Ellen John around the waist of his newlywed wife, Gracia Judy, reduces all the space between them. Her neck is being covered by the warm breath of Ellen, which is giving her shivers down her spine. His scent is alluring, just like his
Ellen then grabs her face harshly making her look into his intimidating eyes and asks , "say it clearly?""A-actually, I'm on my period, please let go of me.""Damn it!" His groans makes her gulp but he lets go of her although his arousal desire doesn't want to. She sighs in relief while cursing him under her teeth. "Couldn't you tell that earlier?" He asks her exasperatedly. "Actually, this is my first time sharing my privacy with a man-like beast, oops sorry, a beast-like man," she says sarcastically.Grabbing her jaw harshly, he grits his teeth in anger."I'm warning you, if you ever try to disrespect me again, you know me very well." Her continuous trial of freeing her face from his grip makes him pisses. "You're a slut!" Tears start to brim from hereyes just by listening to this word fromhis mouth. Ellen stops the faucet and the waterfall also ends in no time but the gradual drop of tears he makes fall from his wife's eyes, how will he stop this?He goes near her ear but just
The command for her to reside in the storeroom has been given by Ellen, but it's unknown to Judy what's wrong with him that he changes his mind and keeps her locked in his room. Despite being only her second day in the new abode, she has not seen him since the previous night. The horrific events are still roaming in her mind. The more she attempts to accept the fact, the more it hurts. This room leaves an impression on her of being a prison inmate there. Although the lights of the morning sun make the room bright, she is there in the bright room, dying gradually while encountering its actual darkness. Multiple attempts at opening the door has made by knocking, but no responses at opening the door. "Huh, who'll dare to open it declining his order." Exhaling deeply, she moves towards the window and pulls back the curtain, feeling a soft breeze caressing her face. She gaze up at the sky, observing the playful movements of the clouds resembling fluffy cotton balls."Whenever I look at the
As she's helped to lie down on the bed, a comforting hand holds hers tightly. Despite gritting her teeth to suppress the intense pain, tears trickle down her face. With gentle care, her wet clothes are then removed and her body is washed to soothe the burning sensation caused by the spilled soup."It's itching a lot." She winces in pain; it feels like her heart will get out of her throat."It'll hurt for a while, then the pain will go away," she says while ruffling her hair. Finally, the ointment is carefully applied to the affected area, providing a cooling sensation and easing her discomfort."Mam, how did this happen suddenly?""I've slipped." A lie is spoken to her, with no other apparent options available."You should be careful, ma'am; Mrs. John will scold us as well as you if she comes to know about this." A look of deep concern is etched on her face, her furrowed brows and tense jawline reflecting the worry and care she feels."Please don't tell her." As Judy says in a pleading
He gets a phone call from someone, so he quickly receives it. “You are missing your life so badly, isn’t it?” “I know it’s you, just stop your nasty game, Veronica; tell me where she is,” Ellen asks her furiously, which makes her chuckle amusingly. “Oh, I think you are missing her, then there’s something to calm your mind, Mr. Ellen; please check the notification.” Ellen checks the notification quickly. It’s a video that shows Judy’s presence clearly, so he quickly plays it with his extremely beating heart. Some of the boys start to touch her inappropriately; she starts to cry and begs them. “Please let me go; I didn’t do anything wrong to you. Please let me go.” Fear makes her skin pale; she is Ellen John’s wife, who never gets a little bit of peace after meeting him; directly or indirectly, she is the worst sufferer of Ellen’s shadow. Someone grabs her by the hair and starts to pull her somewhere, almost dragging her. “Please don’t do this to me; let me go.” "Why, baby girl, shouldn
Kathy keeps trying to reach Ellen, but he is not picking up his phone. One hour passes like that, Kathy neither able to reach Ellen nor move her body. At that moment someone receives the phone but not Ellen. “Sir, her water broke an hour ago; it’s getting out of hand; please come home early,” Kathy says in her panicked voice. “What! He is not at home yet?” Zen shouts from another side. Ellen has forgotten his phone in his office, but he left for his house an hour ago. Zen quickly runs out of the office and drives his car to John's mansion. Ellen and Steve left for the mansion an hour ago, but he wonders why it is taking that much time for them to return home. He reaches the house quickly and takes Judy in bridal style. He runs to his car with her and drives crazily to the hospital; Judy’s screams are wrecking the air, and he clenches his jaw thinking about how careless Ellen can be! Doctors quickly take her to the labor room, and the procedure gets started in no time. Zen and Kathy le
Judy gradually opens her eyes, she trails her gaze here and there in the bright room, a beautiful and weak smile plastered on her face seeing a figure sitting beside her. She lets out a sigh of relief. She is dying to meet her baby. “Ellen, is it a boy or a girl?” she asks, hearing a chuckling sound from him. “It’s a girl, my love,” The voice isn't Ellen’s voice! Judy tries to take a closer look, but her eyes get wide open as she can’t even think of facing him at this moment! “You!” Judy says nervously. He starts to ruffle her hair affectionately, and tears are rolling from his eyes. “I have missed you so much; why didn’t you miss me, Judy?” His sudden question makes her shocked; she doesn’t get why he is speaking this way! “I have started a new life, and I am happy with my love,” Judy says weakly. He closes his eyes in frustration; it seems like her words are numbing his heart. “No! No! You can’t address someone else as your lover except me.” A very unhappy expression spreads on Judy
Ellen wraps his hand around her back, she looks at him slightly smiling. “I’m sorry,” he mumbles in a low tone, she places her finger on his lips. “Why are you saying sorry?” “Remember the day we met?” Ellen asks, Judy shakes her head in agreement, how can she forget the day? That day she cursed her destiny for facing him, but now it’s the biggest day of her life—she met her destiny on that day, her eternity—the hatred that grew in her mind for him is impossible to imagine now. She can’t remember that feeling now; all she knows about him is love; she wants him more than anyone or anything else in this world. Ellen’s brittle tone catches her attention, and she quickly takes a concerned look at him. “From that day till now you are paying, you are sacrificing your everything for me. I don’t know how I will repay you. If I buy the whole world, it’ll be nothing in front of your favor.” His voice rises and falls, showing his sadness. Judy chuckles at him, resting her head on his shoulder. “
The next day, Doctor Rosalind, Judy’s gynecologist, a 45-year-old woman who is assigned for all her treatment, comes to visit her in her room. She flashes her beautiful smile to the doctor, “Good morning, Doctor.” "Morning, dear.” She sits beside her and checks out her blood pressure. “How are you feeling these days?” “Um, well, but sometimes my heartbeat causes problems; is it normal?” The doctor frowns while listening to her; a grim expression spreads across her face. “Did you ever face any accident or drastic pain before?” Judy frowns as she listens to her question. “I faced a car accident, but it was not that severe.” The doctor shakes her head in agreement and asks her when Ellen will come. “Maybe tomorrow, but doctor, is everything alright?” She nods her head several times and tells her to stay safe and careful. “Always eat healthy food and try to have a proper nap.” She gives her a chart to follow on those days and takes leave. It takes exactly two days for Ellen to return home
Mrs. John enters Judy’s room; she finds her in a half-lying state, leaning against the headboard of the bed. Her eyes are closed, the confident and cheerful Judy is nowhere to be seen, and the reason is obvious, but how long will it continue like that? She silently goes to the bed and sits beside her while holding her hand. Judy opens her eyes and sits quickly. “Mom,” she mumbles, “do you need anything?” Mrs. John nods at her while letting out a chuckle. “Oh, you can call me then why bother to come here? I can go there in your room.” “I’m in search of the cheerful Judy I knew; she is missing; I need her.” Judy giggles listening to her, “I’m here, your highness.” Mrs. John pats her head; she knows what’s going on in her mind, but still if they want to overcome the situation, they will have to take a new step. She puts her hands on her and caresses them affectionately. “You know, Judy, it’s been so long since I’ve seen your genuine smile, but I think you should move on.” Judy gives her
A sudden knock on his door catches his attention, so he gives his content quickly, but when he lifts his face, a bright smile spreads on his face. He quickly runs to her and pulls her into his embrace as if he had found her a thousand years later. “How come my love is here exactly when I need her?” Judy chuckles at him. “How can I let my man starve?” She holds his hand and walks to his desk. “Come have your breakfast now.” She unpacks the foods one by one, and Ellen chuckles seeing her action. He suddenly pulls her by her hand and makes her sit on his lap. “Feed me.” He indicates his hand to his mouth, and a very happy and satisfied smile spreads on her face. As she continues feeding him, Ellen also feeds her a spoonful of food. She can’t stop removing her gaze from his dark brown orbs while munching the food. “Am I too handsome?” “Too handsome to resist.” She chuckles at him. When she is done feeding him, she tries to stand up, but Ellen stops her; a quizzical expression spreads on h
Ellen quickly pulls her in his embrace. She takes her hand to his face and caresses his cheek. “How much I missed that moment, how much I’ve craved for your love,” she says then he places a soft kiss on her forehead. “I’m sorry, I’m so sorry I didn’t see your pain but mine.” Judy breaks into tears even to more extent, “don’t say sorry Ellen, nothing will bring back my baby, I’ve lost it and I can’t forget this pain even if die,” she says then Ellen holds her hand softly. “I know, I know it very well, please don’t cry.” She is fighting to stop her tears but she can’t. “I’m craving to see my wife’s beautiful smile, can I have it?” He says while giving her the flower bouquet. Judy looks at the bouquet and gives him a teary smile. “Do you like it?” He asks her, and she quickly shakes her head at him. “Yes, they are so beautiful, thank you.” “Mention not baby girl.” Another day dawns with its bright morning glittering light; the clean leaves of trees and grasses of John Mansion are sparkli
“Not more just stop making us worried, try to take care of yourself a little bit.” “Okay, I’ll do it.” Judy clenches her jaw in anger. She goes to the stretcher and starts taking food like a hungry soul, tears rolling down from her eyes, he keeps looking at her being shocked. She looks at him with her teary eyes after completing her dinner. “Look I’ve started taking care of myself, I hope you stop worrying about me, I hate it when people worry about me, please don’t be worried again, from now on I’ll take care of myself all the way I know.” She goes to the bed and lays beside him, he can hear her sobbing clearly, he closes his frustration, she is hurt by him but he doesn’t understand why he is doing so to her. “Look, Judy, I didn’t mean to hurt you,” Ellen says sadly. “Don’t worry, you didn’t hurt me actually I’m a little dramatic that’s why I can’t control my tears, that’s why I hate me.” She starts to slap herself mercilessly, his eyes get wide open in shock. He quickly goes near her
