Her heart shattered into pieces after what Liam told. Not even the slap that he gave her was as painful as the hurtful words she heard.
She wept bitterly and asked him. “But why. I thought you never loved me, why don’t you allow me go.”
It was so obvious that he did not like her and was willing to stay committed to their marriage, why won’t he allow her to go then?’
He glanced at her with cold eyes while saying, “ You are responsible for the death of my beloved Joey, what made you think you can escape after doing so? I won’t ever forget what you did not forgive you. And for this same reason, I will torture you until you wish for death to come your way.”
Although he didn’t actually caught her killing Joey, he was so sure that she was behind it and would make her pay at all cost.
“I really didn’t kill her, believe me. I am innocent Liam. How do I make you believe that I’m innocent. Now I realized that I shouldn’t have loved a psychopath like you in the beginning. This was the biggest mistake I made. Please let me go.” Rita was saying while still crying.
Both the wound on her left leg and the words all shattered her, and the fact that she could not rely on anyone for help broke her even more.
Was it a crime to love?
“You monster!” She screamed with firmness.
Now that she had told him her mind of divorcing him, she felt a sense of relief.
However, her hair was violently grabbed by him. It felt an unbearable pain as though her scalp would tear apart . It was so painful.
Liam smiled at her and said, “What has gotten over you Rita. Tell me, is something wrong with your brain. Me a monster, I’ll show you how a monster behaves then.” He said while dragging her hair.
More tears rolled down from her eyes as she trembled due to the agonizing pain.
Rita was not the only one who was scared, even the servants that were holding her arms were sweating profusely and shaking in fear.
In this three years that they had been working for Liam, they had never seen him act like this although they were aware of his unapproachable behavior and cold aura. At this point, he looks like a killer.
Rita on the other hand was well aware about what Liam was going to do together her after thinking she was the responsible for Joey’s death.
“I already told you I was not the one that killed Joey, please let me be. You are just being stupid .” She said.
Her words made him angry even more.
He knew of how she was trying to deny being the one responsible for Joey’s death, but he had evidence that she was really the one who had killed her and he was not wrong about that.
“Okay, when I was arranging Joey’s belongings, I came across the message that you actually sent her my hotel number without my knowledge, now explain why you did that and why you didn’t bother letting me to know about this.” His tone was cold as he asked her.
Rita kept quiet, allowing what he said to sink i side her.
It was this same message that Rita sent to her made get to see him having sex with another lady, Aj got angry afterward and while returning back home, she had an accident and died.
Rita still kept quiet and could not give an answer to the question he asked her, but one thing was sure; she was not the one who sent the message to Joey, so who else was it then?
And as for the person behind this plot, who was trying to make her look like a bad person in front of Liam and destroy her, she made up her mind to find out who the person was and why they were doing this to her when she clearly had not wronged them.
But she still found not give an answer to the question. She just kept starring at nothing in particular.
Her silence made him believe she was truest the one who was responsible for Joey’s death.
“Won’t you answer me, that’s just prove one thing which is that you are the culprit. You are a murderer and a deceitful woman. I regretted making you my wife.” He said with a cold tone.
She gave no answer to all what he said and instead pretended that she did not hear what he was saying.
“From the moment you killed her, don’t you know you are cursed and will have a bad life! I thought you ate so in love with me and wished to spend the rest of your life with me, so I’ll grant you that. You will continue to be my wife and live this life of pain for the rest of your life!” He said with no expression on his face.
“Take her to her room now.” He screamed.
The servants nodded and did as they were told, hence dragging her upstairs to her room.
After being dragged to her room, the servants pushed her in and left. Rita kneeled down and allowed the emotions she had been holding all this while to fall. She wept bitterly, cursing the day she met Liam and agreed to become his wife.It was when she was in her final year in the university that she had met Liam, back then he was the crush of all the ladies and Rita had secretly loved him without telling him. So when her marriage was arranged with Liam, her joy knew no bounds. She immediately agreed.But now, she was the biggest fool to be done so. She could have rejected the marriage but her love for him blinded her and preventing her from seeing the kind of person he was.Even after their marriage and on the night of the wedding, Liam did not even spend the night with her. He was totally disgusted by her, yet she kept deceiving herself that night he might come to love her as they spend more time together in marriage.“He won’t rest till he torture me, and see me in pain.” She said
Rita felt her pulse freeze at Liam's sleek, appealing smile.Although it didn't look like he gave her an option, he did.She could give in and make a compromise.Rita's hands were squeezed into fists.She was willing to make a compromise, but she had to accept the bad circumstances.Liam was so pathetic that he would immediately let the Brown family to push her parents into a difficult scenario as soon as she brought up the subject of divorce to Grandpa.Her parents were forced out of the house and subjected to bullying by her uncle and his family in a former life as a result of her.She has to stay away from the catastrophe in this life.She could wait a bit longer for the divorce.Until she was strong enough to support her parents and herself, it wouldn't be too late to get a divorce.Now that she can't get a divorce, she must ask the man for certain favors in order to be fair."I won't mention divorce in front of grandpa, Jim," she said, grinning, "but I want the land in West Blue
"You've always been caring for me, and I certainly need to share your worries." With a gentle smile, Charlotte tightened her arm around Rita and whispered, "Rita, you have a good chance now." I'll assist you in adding the medication to Liam's milk.""Now?" Rita appeared apprehensive. "I'm a little uneasy."Rita was shoved downstairs by Charlotte, who said, "Relax. I've got you covered.Rita grimaced inwardly at this.Charlotte said just that in her past life.Liam was informed by Charlotte that Rita made her do it.Rita became the clown of the Brown family after Liam, in a fit of wrath, gave the project to someone else instead of the Brown Group.And Charlotte triumphed over her biological mother and gained the family's approval.Rita was lost in contemplation when Charlotte pulled her over to the table and sat her down.Charlotte searches for topics nonstop to avoid awkward silence.But other from the odd smile from Rita, Liam hardly spoke at all.The man gracefully consumed his own
"Bastard, let go of me, Uh ... Uh..."Rita's words became jumbled when a big hand suddenly smothered her mouth.She peered at the man on her body under the dim lights, fear in her eyes.How was he going about it?Was his purpose in seeing her to fulfill his erotic desires and have sex?Not at all!She vowed never to endure the agony and disgrace of asphyxia once more!With her red eyes, Rita strained furiously to break free from the man's hold."You can relax. I could never intend to do that to you." The man scowled and said, "I will let you go, but the premise is that... can you calm down and listen to me?" as if he could read her thoughts.Rita was perplexed. She gave a firm nod.She swiftly jumped out of bed after pushing the man away after he released his grip.She moved as quickly as she could to the farthest corner, staying well away from the man, despite her left leg hurting and making her perspire."Maybe she was afraid of that horrible night from her past life. Rita was like
Rita's eyes were wide open as she noticed the man pressing on her.Enraged, she gave the man a slap. "Don't touch me!"Give a clap!A forceful smack echoed across the space.The man's face flushed."Damn you!" Liam's eyes were as cold as a razor blade as he grabbed her throat.Rita felt her throat tingle and her face hurt so much.Her tiny hands clawed at the large hand, attempting to gain a small space to breathe, but the more she fought to break free, the harder the man's hand clawed. Her face went purple from the lack of air."Ahem ... Ahem .. let go of me!"With a frustrated look, the man threw the woman aside.He ought to be at ease, but why could this woman always make him feel agitated?He thought he was just being nice at first, but little did he know that this foolish woman would treat him badly.Asshat!"I'm not that mad to have sex with a woman like you!" The man gave a chilly snort and gave the door a sour expression.Rita's tense nerves loosened as she stared at the close
On the other side of the street."He said he will be coming soon, Liam. Let's hold off a bit longer. Liam was standing next to Jacob when Jacob shook his phone and noticed that he had been glancing at something.He squinted and saw the elderly woman apprehending Rita."This woman deserves it," Jacob said with a smack of his lips. "Are you satisfied now, Liam?"Deadpan on the man's face. It is impossible to see exactly what his feelings were.Every day, the man gave a lackluster response to pointless queries.Jacob was therefore not taken aback. He watched their quarrel as a hobby, leaning his head on his seat.In the Browns' backyard "Don't touch my daughter!"Mason Brown yelled quickly as he saw Rita encircled by the maids.Then he and his spouse Zoey hurried over, shielding Rita behind their backs and preventing anyone from getting close.Rita felt so warm inside that tears spilled out of her eyes as she looked at the parents in front of her.Her parents would, of course, always lo
"What?"He couldn't believe his ear. Liam was asking for Rita's information! He stared at Liam, looking astonished.But when Liam turned to look at him coldly, he flinched, patted his chest and said, "No problem, I'll handle it.""Good, send me all materials in three days," Said Liam, raising his lips with satisfaction. But Jacob was sour-faced.Three days?'He wasn't a superman, how could he accomplish it in such a short time? No matter how difficult the task was, glancing at Liam's cruel face, Jacob held back what he wanted to say.***In the evening, feeling exhausted, Rita returned home.The moment she stepped into the living room, she saw Liam was gracefully seated and havingdinner in the dining room.He took a sip of soup and frowned, "Mrs. Davis, did we change the cook?""No, we didn't.""Why does it taste so bad and differ from before? It's hard to swallow!"He put down his chopsticks in displeasure and frowned again.Mrs. Davis came forth to have a look at the soup with conc
Liam drew himself closer in a sudden. Rita subconsciously ducked back. Her heart beat fast because of fluster. Seeing that Liam was only looking at her, Rita relaxed herself a little."I'm still the same Rita, the only difference is that.."She paused for a moment, and looked up to meet his cold eyes without blinking, "I DON'T LOVE YOU ANYMORE. I want to divorce you. I want to leave here!"Her voice was not loud but full of determination.Looking at the determined look on Rita's face, Liams face got somber. It wasn't the first time that Rita had said things like this. In the past, he was never affected by such words. But today, he felt inexplicably annoyed."Oh, I don't need your love!" Liam snorted and pushed her away, "But if you want to get a divorce ... I'm afraid it's not that easy." His eyesmet hers. Tension arose in the room."Liam, Liam, are you still listening?" not until he heard his grandpa's voice from the telephone did he turn his cold eyes away from Rita's face. He hid
Rita thought for a moment, tentatively to, "Could it be Emma ...?" Jacob's face instantly changed. "No ... is not! Don't guess! Even if she forced herself on me, could I accept it? I'm also very picky about my bed partners and don't accept everyone!" As Jacob said this, Emma was walking in from outside. Because Jacob didn't see it in the direction of the back to the door. But Rita saw it at a glance and was so scared that her heart was in her throat. Her throat rolled up and down, and she hinted to Jacob in a panic to tell him to stop. Jacob, however, thought she was having trouble with her eyes. He reached for the apple, took a bite and continued, "Emma's kind of manly and violent, does not meet my aesthetic standards, I dont like her, much less develop a relationship with her." Rita sniffed, her heart was half cold. She looked behind her at Emma, only to see someone's eyes tightened and her cold eyes fell on the top of Jacob's head like a substance. "Man-child?" He
"Call Mom!" Rita looked over at Jonathan on the floor and raised the end of her eyebrow. Jonathan"..." Jacob couldn't help him, "Junior, let me remind you not to jump to conclusions in the future." At that, Jonathan face a burst of clear red white. Fuck, what's this about? He wasn't killed by Liam and was confused by Rita's behavior. Jonathan can not go down when the little red-faced Emma reached out to hook Rita, the bottle of wine to its mouth, "Come on, sister we continue to drink, do not take care of this group of stinky men. I can tell you... this man ah, no one good thing." None of the men who were spared, collectively in blackface: "..." "Pfft, drunken talk... you few don't take it seriously." Rita placated a few men, and then took the bottle and drank it with alacrity. "You're a pain in the ass, I like that." Emma looked at Rita admiringly. And then sat down on the ground, fished up a bottle of wine glugging and drinking. Emma, who could not drink, drank hard and
"Rita?" Watching the girl's back, Emma frowned. When did this woman come? How much of her conversation with Liam just now did this woman hear? Or ... Her confession, her rejection ... Rita heard it all? Thinking about this, Emma suddenly blushed hard. Rita took a deep breath, and then turned her head graciously with her pink lips slightly hooked: "Miss Ellis, tea is too boring in the evening, why don't we drink?" Emma: "..." Jacob raised his eyes to the gray sky: "..." said what? The crowd froze. Liam, on the other hand, sat gracefully in a rattan chair, steady as a mountain and unhurried. He looked down and took another sip of tea and raised his eyes to the girl across from him. A large, well-boned hand patted the spot at the side of his body, "Come here." Rita nodded, "Hmm." The backyard path is paved with cobblestones, and Rita, who is wearing high heels, has some trouble walking. In addition, she went to the night market with Nathan Murphy before and rubbed a bli
As Jacob thought, Emma refused to change into women's clothes. He had no choice but to say "it's Liam's orders", and Emma relented. Liam Wilson's orders, no one dares to disobey. Jacob wouldn't dare, Jonathan wouldn't dare, and naturally ... Emma wouldn't dare. "Liam, what exactly did you ask me to come over here tonight for? And why do I have to change into a dress?" Inside the room, came Emma's puzzled voice, and Jacob, who was waiting outside the door, paused for a moment, then played dumb:. "I don't know, you'll have to ask Liam yourself about that." Emma in the room is silent: "..." A minute has passed ... Two minutes have passed ... At the three-minute mark, Jacob was clearly getting a little impatient waiting for. "You haven't changed ..."?! Just then, the door to the room creaked open. In the moonlight, Emma walked out in a red dress, Jacob could not help but look stunned. Is this still Emma, the female devil who is usually stronger than a man? This is simply
"Hello?" The hoarse voice of Rita came through the phone, and she sounded like she just woke up. Jacob jolted. Well... Kaleb, who had been protecting her secretly, had said she was shopping, right? Buy why did she sound she had fallen asleep? "Stay still girl. You just lied on my arm, and it is numb now. It hurt when you move around." Jacob's mind wandered, then the moans of Nathan came out from the speaker. Jacob was shocked. His arm was numb? She and Nathan... Damn, what happened between them? Why did he feel she had two-timed Liam? So she was having an affair with Nathan? Thinking of Liam, Jacob peeped at Liam sitting across him. Then he was frightened by his angry face. His eyes glinted with jealousy, and he looked like he wanted to completely destroy this city. Unnerved, Jacob swallowed hard when he sensed Liam's rage. He should not have called Rita just now!! What, what should he do? When Jacob was in a state of panic, Rita spoke again. "Sorry." But she wa
Liam came here to talk business, then he happened to see Leyla bullying Rita. After he took her away, the CEO of another company also arrived. Jacob looked down at his watch. "Liam, the delegate had arrived, and we should go." Sitting at the table, Liam's dark eyes flicked through the two boys beside Rita and then rested on her. With their eyes fixed on him, Liam's thin lips kissed on Rita's ruby lips, as if he was reminding them that Rita was his girl. What the hell!!! Why did he suddenly start to act all this lovey-dovey? Before Rita had any response, Liam released his hold and went out. Rita joled for a while and then realized what had happened. He had left? Then what should she do? With her face blushing, she flicked a glance at Tomas and Nathan who were stunned across her, smiling awkwardly. Then she took the menu to them immediately. "You must be hungry. Just order whatever you want." Tomas cast a glance at the menu and teased her, "I'm too full to eat just watchi
Liam said coolly that he would no longer outsource this project to the West, as if he was merely talking about the weather. But what he said was like a bombshell to others. Especially for Leyla, who was gripped by panic. "Mr. Wilson, the West has worked for this project for years. Though there's no remarkable achievement for now, the West has made a great contribution to it. Freddy jolted at Liam's words - The West was also involved. Considering his own interest, Freddy could not turn a blind eye to that. "Mr. Wilson, I apologize if Leyla upset you and Miss Brown. But as for the work, could you please think about it again? the West has worked for the project for so many years. If you suddenly give this project to others, it should take time to run in properly, which may delay the development and construction of the land. It's not a big deal for us to waste some time, but you may suffer a huge loss for that... Standing next to them, Rita had heard how Freddy persuaded Liam to
A tall and formidable figure came close in the light. There followed a silence in the hall. Liam's eyes came across Leyla and fell on Rita. When he saw she was holding Nathan and Tomas, his eyes narrowed with coldness instantly. Then it became freezing in the hall at once. When Rita found Liam kept looking at her hands, she lowered her head subconsciously. She realized she was still holding their arms, then she released her grasp on their hands immediately. Seeing that, the killing intent in Liam's eyes faded in a way. Other people at their sides did not find they had made eye contact, because they all focused on the fair-skinned and captivating face. How could he be so attractive? So attractive... that others would even want to have his children. Those women who had been standing at side to see what happened had thought Freddy was good-looking enough, but now they found this elegant and noble comer was even more handsome than Freddy. Much, much more handsome than Freddy
Freddy had been known as the most popular boy in high school. He was good-looking indeed. But to Rita, who already saw the strikingly handsome face of Liam, Freddy was not that good-looking anymore. It felt like... After she had already eaten the honey, she would not think melon was sweet enough. But the couple in front of her did not know what was going through her mind. Rita sniggered, "I had a crush on him? Why don't I know that?" Hearing that, Leyla looked at her with contempt. "What? You've forgotten the love letter you sent to him, which he returned back to you? She had sent love letter to Freddy and had been rejected by him? Well.. Why did she remember it was him who sent the letter to her and had been rejected? Rita had not spoken yet, but Freddy who knew what had happened looked uneasy. He nudged at Leyla and said to her in an undertone. "OK, stop it. We should go to the dinner." "Sweetie, no. I just want to help the old schoolmate to recall the old days. Leyl
