All Chapters of I Sent My Manipulative Ex-boyfriend to Jail: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

I held myself tightly, trembling with fear. The moment his hand touched me, I couldn't stop crying and screaming.Edwin witnessed my distress and forcibly held me tight in his arms, apologizing repeatedly."Don't be afraid. I'm sorry. Honey, will you forgive me? I was afraid that you would misunderstand the whole thing. I'm sorry! I'm so sorry."But when he realized that I remained silent and cried with my head bowed, he cupped my face and kissed me forcefully.Fear overwhelmed me even more, and I struggled to push him away, but my attempt was in vain. In desperation, I bit him hard.He groaned and let go of me. The next moment, a drop of blood oozed from his lips.Gasping for air, he used his hand to wipe away the blood. The cut on his lip worsened, and fresh blood flowed down to his chin.I was confused and instinctively reached out to hold his face.Tears glistened in his eyes as he said, "See? You bit me back and made me bleed. Now we're even, aren't we?"Even? I was stunned again.

Breaking up with him had crossed my mind several times.However, he took care of me so well that it made it difficult to leave. He handled all household chores - laundry, cooking, and even washing my underwear. He would prepare warm foot baths and even squeeze toothpaste onto my toothbrush in advance.He went as far as offering to do my homework for me if I wanted.In those moments, I couldn't help but think that if he could genuinely change and stop making mistakes, perhaps I could find it in me to forgive him.After all, he was my first love. And first love was always unforgettable.Little did I know, he also had an unforgettable first love, one that he had never forgotten for a single moment.As the sophomore year came to an end, my constant arguments with Edwin caused a shift in my perspective on many things.It suddenly dawned on me that I hadn't made any genuine friends during my two years at school. The three girls I used to share a dormitory with had grown distant after I moved

Because of the argument this time, Edwin relaxed his control over me. With his permission, I could participate in club activities and dance, but there were three rules to follow.The first rule was no physical contact with male classmates, including holding hands;the second rule was no revealing clothing during performances;and the third rule was not to eat or celebrate with the club members after the performance.Although the three rules had forbidden me from joining most of the campus activities, I still found myself enjoying my time.Time passed, and half a year went by. Edwin continued to spend my money casually, but there were no major expenses.Moreover, I never found out that he was in contact with Verne. Therefore, as half a year passed, I gradually began to trust him again.In the second semester of my junior year, my classmates began to search for internships.I had agreed with my family, promising that I would go back to my hometown, Atlantica City, for an internship, and

It turned out that in the eyes of my classmates, Edwin had average looks and family background, with a vain and ostentatious character. He also had a strong chauvinistic personality.In any respect, he wasn't even worthy of tying my shoes."I can't understand what's wrong with you. How did you let him hold you for three years?" Otelia asked in disbelief.I didn't say anything and continued to cry.When we arrived at the hospital, Otelia begged me to stop crying."You look like a minor. If you cry when you enter the hospital, the doctor might even call the police."I had to hold back my tears. With her by my side, things seemed a lot easier.Otelia helped me with everything. When we finally sat outside the operating room, she even jokingly said to me,"It's a good thing that I have long hair. If I cut it short and came with you, the doctor would definitely scold me."I thanked her, but I was still thinking about Edwin.I checked my phone, but there were no missed calls or messages from

"I'm always this early every day. You're early today too. Did you sleep well last night?"Verne's thick eyelashes trembled slightly. "No, I couldn't sleep. My mind was preoccupied.""Did you take the melatonin I bought for you? Also, I changed the curtains to blackout ones. How effective are they? Oh, by the way, those SKII face masks that I ordered for you last time..."With each uttered word, my heart sank deeper.Verne flicked her straight black hair impatiently, and her gaze landed upon me.Her eyes flickered for a moment, making me think that she might call out my name in the next second.But instead, she looked at Edwin with confusion and asked, "Ed, is this girl new?"Only then did Edwin acknowledge my presence.His smile vanished from his face, replaced by a look of annoyance as if his good mood had been disturbed."She's Harper Moulton," he said flatly."So, you're Harper?" She walked over to me with a smile and extended a hand.My mind went blank, and mechanically, I reached
