Clarabelle trembled. The pounding in his chest still hadn't subsided. Itchy on her cheeks, lips, and body, to the most important part of her femininity. Tears rolled down Clarabelle's cheeks again. Slowly, half on all fours, Clarabelle made her way to the bathroom. She closed the door and knelt against the bathroom door. “Jordan… you are so mean to me… It hurts so much…” Clarabelle watched her body. There were bruises, red, and scrapes everywhere. Clarabelle couldn't remember how much Jordan tugged and then pushed her. Jordan touched her roughly, on purpose to hurt Clarabelle. Letting go of desire and anger, Jordan uttered swear words and insults at Clarabelle. “I'm not your bitch… I am not a whore, no…” Clarabelle whispered as she covered her face with her hands. Broken and sick, was how Clarabelle felt. If she could choose, Clarabelle would go. Unfortunately, Clarabelle couldn't do it. James would be judged badly. James was not a bad guy. Clarabelle could actually see James getti
"Yes, there is something important I need to talk to you about." James stepped closer to Jordan.Clarabelle deliberately stayed away, she preceded Jordan out of the room.“In the office, just come. I'm not going anywhere until six o'clock today," Jordan said, flatly."Okay. Thank you." James looked at Jordan.Jordan turned and immediately caught up with Clarabelle who was already outside the house."Good, you know where you have to find me," Jordan spoke when he caught up with Clarabelle.Clarabelle turned quickly. She understood what Jordan meant. Clarabelle deliberately avoided James.“Don’t you miss my brother? Huh?" Jordan spoke into Clarabelle's ear.“Stop it, Jordan. Your jealousy is too much.” Clarabelle opened the car door. She entered, sat down, and quickly fastened her seat belt. She was very upset to hear what Jordan said.“Ho ho ho!” Jordan laughed derisively. He went inside the car. “You want me to happily let you play with fire with James? Surely?""You know that's not t
Jordan's eyes widened. His face flushed instantly. He drew closer to the side of the bed, standing glaring at Clarabelle."What did you say?" Jordan said in a very surprised tone.“Jordan, we are having a baby. A child, our child." Still, with a pale face, cold sweat filled her forehead, and also her hands were cold, Clarabelle smiled.“No way! No!” Jordan half shouted bringing his face closer to Clarabelle.Clarabelle was surprised by Jordan's reaction. Clarabelle reflex hugged her chest and closed her eyes."A child? Have we ever talked about a child!?” Jordan slightly bent down and held Clarabelle by both shoulders.Clarabelle closed her eyes even tighter.“Shit!” Jordan let go of his hand. He stood and walked away.Clarabelle opened her eyes and looked at Jordan. She seemed very upset."I am going. Don’t know what to say!” Jordan put the recipe back on the counter, then left the room.Clarabelle couldn't say anything. Her eyes were wet, tears welling up with clear tears that she c
Clarabelle made up her mind. She would leave Jordan. Surviving was no longer possible because Jordan categorically refused to have their baby. The more Clarabelle thought about it, the more pain and regret filled her chest. Clarabelle thought for a long time about where she was going. There was no family she could turn to. Even though she knew her father's family was in Indonesia, Clarabelle didn't know them. Her mother's family was the same. Just a fleeting tale she heard without knowing where they actually were. “Rita… I know.” Clarabelle immediately contacted Rita. She said she wanted to visit Rita's place. At first, Rita thought Clarabelle would come on vacation to the small town where she lived. However, when Clarabelle came alone, Rita's feelings immediately moved. "Lala, just tell me, you and Jordan have problems," said Rita. In wetly eyes, Clarabelle also told what happened. “Damn! I'll kill him, for God's sake!” Rita shouted angrily. "What's in the man's head?" “Rita, p
Clarabelle looked at the beautiful house. From the first time she walked into Jordan's house, she really liked it. It was comfortable, a dream home, and even more beautiful than she thought of a house where she could build love with her life partner.For more than a year, Clarabelle had to leave everything. Alternating sweet times with all sorrows came to mind. All of that too shall pass, though Clarabelle knew, throughout her life, the story with Jordan would be impossible for her to forget.Clarabelle's tears welled up again. She wiped it with a tissue in her hand."Thanks for everything, Jordan." Clarabelle's eyes were still on the house. She spoke as if Jordan were nearby. "I'm sorry, I can't do my promise to you, that I will always be there for you until death does us part. I'm sorry, but I have to look after this baby.”Clarabelle picked up her suitcase and headed to a waiting taxi. Before opening the taxi door, Clarabelle once again glanced at the house where she and Jordan had
Jordan was quite surprised to hear James' words."Running away? Is that easy for her to leave?" Jordan felt his heartbeat speeding up. "I know she is going to you. Don't hide my wife!""You don't know your wife very well, Jordan.” Calmly James answered. But he was upset and regretted that this happened. Clarabelle chose to leave. James knew Jordan was going to get messy."What do you mean?!" Jordan snapped even more furiously."She's a good woman, Jordan. She loves you, so much. But she can't stand your behavior, you know. Think again why did she choose to leave you?" Still, calmly James answered."Shit! It's useless for me to talk to you!" Jordan hung up the call.James' words pierced Jordan's ears very clearly. What did Jordan do until Clarabelle left?"Susan. I think Lala is going to Susan's house. She must be hiding there." Jordan concluded. Unfortunately, he doesn't know where Susan lives. Jordan tried to call Susan, but he
Jordan's hand quickly took the paper Susan had placed on his desk. Immediately he read what was written there. Jordan's eyes widened, he couldn't believe he read Clarabelle's message to Susan."I don't know where she is. She definitely has closed her number on purpose. She also sent Jack a letter saying goodbye." Susan spoke furiously, looking at Jordan who was still stunned, again repeating the contents of the letter."Are you serious, Clarabelle left?" Lorenz asked."I'm the one who wants to ask, didn't Lala give any signs at all? Don’t you feel anything strange about her attitude? She didn't even text you?" Susan did not answer Lorenz. She looked even more intently at Jordan with no less annoyance. The girl wanted to scratch Jordan's face.Jordan met Susan's gaze. His heart felt chaotic knowing the fact Clarabelle left. She was not with James. Clarabelle stayed away from everyone she knew.Jordan didn't know what to say. He hadn't cared much for Clarabelle since the night he saw Ja
'I'm sorry. I can't stay longer by your side'So, Clarabelle left a message for Jordan.'Live well, please. Be a nice man as I have known you so far'Jordan held the paper with tears in his eyes.'Don't forget your milk'Jordan quickly got up and opened the refrigerator. Clarabelle always had fresh milk ready for Jordan. That was right, there was a bottle in there. Right next to the bottle was a flat box propped up in plastic wrap.Jordan took it, then sat back down. He opened the plastic. It contained an ATM and credit card that Jordan gave. Also, the car keys Jordan gave Clarabelle. There was another folded paper there. Jordan took it. Another message from Clarabelle.'Everything I borrowed, I return them to you. Thank you so much for all the sweet things I ever had with you. I'll take care of Jordan Junior, I promise. Love you, always'Jordan was crying. He cried hard reading the letter."You're stupid... stupid... Why are your eyes blind, Jordan? Why?" Jordan began to realize that
