Her Husband's Wrath Chapter 8
Chapter 8“Sleep in my house from now on,” Lily captured my eyes in one snap. Does she hear herself? “My house is always open for you, Faith. Uh, you also have your condo. Why not stay there? Or just choose where do you like to stay—”“Hold on,” my brows crossed while I was processing everything they were saying right after they brought me back to my shop. I saw Elijah leaving earlier. He didn't even say anything back there. I tilted my head and made an awkward chuckle. “I can't do that,” I said. They both froze. Their eyes were both glued at me. “What do you mean you can't? If you're scared of Elijah, don't worry about him.” Lucas said with no fear at all. He looks chill as if he can handle Elijah in a blink of an eye. “I'll talk to my lawyer to help you with the divorce pap—”“No,” that one word made them both pause. I think that was enough to cut out the thoughts filling their heads. “No?” Lucas asked, probably befuddled. “I'm not filing a divorce. We've already talked abo

Chapter 9I don't know how long I was already looking at myself in the mirror. I just took a bath but was not dressed to go out. I decided to stay here for today and finalize the designs of the dresses for my clients. I exhaled while I couldn't take my eyes off the bruise from Elijah's hand last night. It has turned gray already and people will surely notice it at one glance. He indeed pressed my arm firmly last night and I didn't have the strength to stop him. I went downstairs, having no energy left in me. As usual, our dining table is filled with tons of food but the chairs are empty. This is not a new film to me. Each day that I live with Elijah, I get used to it. “Did he do that?” My eyes were lifted up at the same maid who asked me again and didn't fail to notice the bruise on my left arm. I quickly pulled my shirt and tried hiding it. It was useless though, she already saw it. “We fought,” I chuckled with my own words. How can't I? Isn't it funny? We do not even talk prop

Chapter 10I know it sounds crazy, but the cemetery gives peace more than the usual places. I have been there, inside my car, while I was staring at the exact grave of Freya that I can clearly see from here. I woke up early—or should I say that I dressed up early because I didn't really get to sleep last night after what happened. I was crying a river all night, and that is not a surprise anymore. I intentionally left the house before I could even cross Elijah's sight again. The more he becomes aggressive and obnoxious, the more I find him perilous for me. I blew air heavily before I decided to get out of the car and walk towards Freya. Every step that I make gathers all the daggers deeply pierced on my chest. “How are you, Freya?” I found a little smile on my lips. “Sorry, I came empty handed.” I chuckled. I was supposed to head straight to my office but ended up being here. “I was thinking, if the accident didn't happen, would all of this happen to me? Perhaps my life won't be

Chapter 11“He's drunk again?” Marie asked as we both helped each other until we brought Elijah to his room. I didn't know that he was this heavy. Damn it. “The bar called me,” I replied. I had to breathe deeply as soon as we were able to throw him on the bed. “What do we do?” I glanced at her and she's worried again. Marie looks younger than me. I somehow wonder how she ended up working as a maid here. “You should go back to sleep. I'll take care of him,” I said when I noticed that she was already in her pajamas. “Are you sure, Ms. Faith?” I nodded as my response before she left us alone there. She was still kinda hesitant to leave me alone with Elijah who's drunk. I started to remove his shoes and socks and made sure that he would be comfortable on the bed. I never saw Elijah this miserable not until my sister passed away. I swear, Elijah was the most gentleman I've known in my entire life. However, that Elijah is gone now. It remains as a shadow of the past. I heaved another

Chapter 12Elijah’s POV“I’ll see you next time,” the woman kissed me and even lingered her seducing fingers on my neck as she turned her back, leaving me with her eyes glued to me like a leech.I don’t even remember her name. In fact, I don’t remember the names of the women I have sex with even though I brought them all to my place. “Should I come with you until you reach your room? You really don't look fine,” my eyes were stolen when Faith arrived with the maid that seems to be always around her a lot. I remained tough, cold, and heartless as I glanced at her. Her eyes weren’t at me. She was looking at the woman who was just about to leave. Wearing my keenest eyes, I made sure to watch her reaction after seeing another woman in our house. Sadness, pain, but unsurprised. Those are everything that invaded her eyes the moment she saw another woman.“N-No, I'm fine.” She simply shook her head as she closed her eyes deeply. My brows almost crossed as I watched her closely. She looks

Chapter 13“Do you like Faith? Are you fucking in love with my wife, Lucas?” That time, I didn't let him escape me. I cornered him with my sharp eyes at him, squeezing him until he admitted it by himself. “Shut up, Elijah. Do not change the subject! I came here for Fai—”“And why? Why did you come for her right away after you heard from that doctor about her condition?” When he wasn't able to answer me, I knew that he did. He likes Faith. He's in love with her and we were all too blind and naive not to notice it. “I don't care if you like her or not, Lucas. But just so you know, she is my wife now.” Our eyes remained together for a few seconds more before I distanced myself from him. “Take him out,” I said to the bodyguards and turned my back to him. I didn't look back and headed straight at Faith's room. She was still sleeping when I came back. I didn't know how long I would stay standing at the door while I couldn't take any step towards her with my conscience making me soft o

Chapter 14“Why are you acting like you care for me?”The deafening silence invaded the entire dining area. Elijah's eyes were pinned on me and that's the same for me. I was holding the spoon firmly in my grasp, squeezing it, while waiting for Elijah's reply. “Nevermind,” I said and was the one who broke our gazes together when he didn't answer. “Because you're sick,” that made me pause again, the moment he said that. I found his eyes still on me, having no emotions at all. “We're still married in papers, you are my responsibility. Do not expect anything,” perhaps that was the answer I needed the most. A clarification with his actions. I have no words to say. He looked away and continued eating while I was stuck there, looking at him. Once again, an excruciating pain attacked my chest. I didn't say anything anymore and tried all my best to swallow the food even though his words weakened me. The next day, we were back to how we normally started this marriage. Elijah isn't speaking

Chapter 15“Elijah, slow down.” I said when he was not walking with me anymore, he was dragging me, taking his huge steps. He was not facing me. I can only see his back, but I could feel and see how furious he is up until now. We left the party with the scene he created. I do appreciate how he shielded me, stood up for me from that unknown man when I was getting drunk already. “Elijah!” I exclaimed and pulled my hand out of his grasp when I almost trip on my heels. He's dragging me so swiftly that I could not take my steps slowly! “S-Stop,” I uttered, chasing my breath. “I will trip if you continue dragging me,” I bit my lower lip as I looked at my feet. It's already hurting because of these heels.“Get in,” it didn't just come out of his mouth, it was a command. Our car parked in front of us and I remained standing there. “Look, I know that you're mad, Elij—”“I said get in,” he said, firmer than earlier. It made me froze. “Elij—”“I SAID GET IN THE FUCKING CAR!” My lips part

Her Husband's Wrath Chapter 104
Chapter 104 Elijah and I were left standing there as we both watched the detective leave. A minute later, I saw Lucas who came back inside our car earlier. “He's calling,” Elijah said as his phone rang and I saw Horan calling. “He left,” Elijah uttered over the phone. “Stay there. Adrian is activating the tracking device,” Horan said on the line. The call was loudspeaker. “I'm sorry for what happened. I'm gonna clean this,” a real waiter came to us and immediately cleaned the mess that we purposely created in order to plant the tracking device for the detective. When the waiter finished cleaning the mess, the device was finally activated. “It's working. You can now leave, the detective is back at the station.” I was able to finally breathe when he said that. All my worries fade away in one snap. “Thank God,” I muttered. The strength I pulled in earlier vanished my body. Now, I felt weak after acting tough in front of the detective. “We should go now,” Elijah said as he quick
Her Husband's Wrath Chapter 103
Chapter 103“Are you sure you can do this?” Elijah asked the next day. Today, we're going to do the plan that we talked about yesterday. I would not deny that I feel nervous. How can't I? The detective was sharp. If he is really the culprit, then he would anticipate everything that we could do. I can't mess this up, we can't. If we succeed with this mission, we will have a chance to finally find Marie. “Of course,” I said. I gave all my best to hide my fear in front of him. I knew that if he saw how terrified I was, he would not let me do the mission. “Don't worry about me, Elijah. We have to do this in order to save Marie,” I said as I fixed his collar. I chose to look at it rather than cross his gaze that was stuck at me. I didn't want him to catch my real emotions. “This is not just to save Marie, this is also to end this war,” he added, followed by his heavy sigh as he sat on the bed, looking frustrated and bothered. He's worried, I could tell that in one glance. He doesn't
Her Husband's Wrath Chapter 102
Chapter 102 “It's not his real voice,” Adrian said while he kept repeating the voice of the culprit. I was able to record it during the call and from the video he sent. I heard Lucas chuckled. “This bastard is really smart. He's not gonna let us find out so easily who he is,” “What do we do?” I asked. “I have a plan,” we all stopped when Detective Horan arrived with some of his men following him inside. They all looked exhausted but they are still doing their job to find Marie. Lily whistled. “Interesting. Let's talk about it,” “You should take a rest for a while. There's food in the dining room. You guys should eat first,” I might be so eager and in a hurry to find Marie as soon as possible, but I also care for their health. In order for them to look for Marie, they must have enough strength to do so. We let everyone rest for the meantime. Elijah and I went to our room just to spend some of our time together. We were back on the bed, cuddling, while staring at the empty ceilin
Her Husband's Wrath Chapter 101
Chapter 101 With the days passed and we still had nothing to find Marie, I tried distracting myself for my own sake. But it is just really hard to do that, especially that I see all of them working so hard to look for her. “It's good to sit here early in the morning while drinking coffee,” Lily muttered. It's 6 am and we are both on the veranda, watching the peaceful view of the garden in front of us. There was still fog that covered the place a bit and I could still feel the cold that naturally comes every morning. There were no people working to find Marie yet. Well, this day is just about to begin. “Well, you're drinking milk.” I reminded her and we both chuckled with that. She was caressing her belly, which is already huge now. The aroma of my coffee is filling the entire veranda. I do love mornings like this, but I will love it more if Marie isn't in the hands of the culprit. I don't know what will happen today, but I hope we can find something that will lead us to Marie.
Her Husband's Wrath Chapter 100
Chapter 100After the video was sent to us, I hired more people to look for Marie. Detective Horan didn't let his guards down, too. His entire team is working their fingers to the bone to find Marie. The video that we watched kept playing in my head. That bastard punched Marie and it crumpled my chest all the time. She did nothing wrong in life to deserve things like this. “I should have just come with her,” I said with so many regrets. I should have just disregarded my meetings so I could be with her. If I didn't let her enroll by herself, she would not be in that culprit’s hand. She would not experience that kind of thing in her life.“It happened for a reason,” Elijah said while holding my hand. We are outside the clinic of my Psychiatrist. I am here for another check up and I would not be surprised if she says that I am not getting any better. I have been stressed with everything and I could not even make a good sleep. “What reason?” I glanced at him bitterly.I don't see any
Her Husband's Wrath Chapter 99
Chapter 99 “Marie is with me, Faith…if you want to find her, let's play hide and seek.” My entire body turned cold the moment I heard that unfamiliar baritone voice. “M-Ms. Faith…d-don’t come here! He will kill you! He will kill all of you! J-Just let me die here! D-Don’t come and sav—”“Shut up, you fucking bitch!” “Marie! Don't hurt her! Fuck you!” I screamed along with my tears that began to invade my face. “What's happening?” Elijah asked who couldn't understand everything that was going on. I eyed him with my scared eyes. I'm terrified of Marie's situation now that she is in the hands of the culprit. I clearly heard how the damn bastard laid his hand to Marie and I could not do anything but scream over the phone. “It's about time to face me, Faith. I'm giving you a month to find me and if you failed, I'm gonna kill this little maid of yours,” “FUCK YOU! DON'T YOU DARE TO TOUCH HER!” I was growling like a monster with my hands clenched on my desk. I was holding the phone
Her Husband's Wrath Chapter 98
Chapter 98 “Wait, wait…are you telling me that the detective is a possible suspect?” Lucas asked, looking so befuddled. “Well, it's kinda weird to say that Freya is kind even in highschool when he doesn't even know Freya, right?” Lily said, full of confusion. I have been thinking about what he said to us. Can he really be the culprit? Is he playing with us? “Think of it, he hasn't got any while investigating. The only information he got was the one about Marie,” Brian bit his lower lip while thinking deeply. We all look like solving a damn puzzle.“He framed her,” Elijah mumbled. “I called my secretary. I told her to find me a new detective, a secret one, you know. I also asked her to do some research about him,” I don't know if we are taking the right lead. But I have a strong feeling that the detective has something to do with all this mess. The question is why is he doing this to us? I don't even know him. “Do you guys know him?” Lucas asked, still stuck in the hospital bed.
Her Husband's Wrath Chapter 97
Chapter 97“M-Marie…” I uttered weakly. “She’s not the culprit.” I threw my eyes to the three of them with a glimpse of anger. I told them so many times that she was innocent, and yet, none of them listened. My world collided even more now that I proved that Marie is innocent. She is not the fucking culprit and she's paying for that bastard’s sins. “I-It can't be…maybe s-she escaped! Or perhaps she still has people outside,” I eyed Lily unbelievably. Seriously? She's still accusing her? “What the fuck, Lily?! She's in fucking jail!” I was shaking with rage towards them. I knew that she was innocent and I should have listened to myself since the beginning. My heart is breaking to think that she suffered there for a week already without doing anything wrong! “I told you a million times that Marie is innocent! You all didn't fucking listen to me!” I slammed the table with my hand. I was burning because of my anger bursting out. I washed my hands on my face, getting feeble. I could
Her Husband's Wrath Chapter 96
Chapter 96Ever since Marie left the house, I knew that there was a big part of me that was taken away. I felt like I was incomplete and the house suddenly felt empty without her presence.It's been a week since I went to the jail to see her. Every night, I couldn't erase her face on the roof of our room. The image of her from the last time we saw each other was painted in my head. It was clenching my heart. For some reason, up until now, I feel like something is still wrong. I should be mad at her, but I don't know why I seem like I can't hate her. What if they were wrong? What if she was really telling me the truth? I would hate myself so much if she's really innocent. I let her suffer in that dark face instead of believing her. “What are you thinking?” I almost got startled when Elijah suddenly appeared behind me and embraced me from there. I was on the balcony, watching the sky once again. “Do you want me to be honest?” I asked. I escaped his arms only to face him. “Of course
