All Chapters of The Reason for His Hatred MY MISCARRIAGE: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Valarie snapped open her eyes, only to meet the suffocating sight of Dominic's arms wrapped around her. A flood of revulsion, mixed with a shot of fear, rose within her. She tried to shove him, but it was as if some invisible weight rendered her body heavy.Looking upward at the peaceful face of Dominic, a wave of anger and hatred coursed through her veins. There she was, trapped on this bed with him; she couldn't believe that she had been so helpless for so long.But struggling to free herself from the grip of Dominic was broken by the sudden flash of a different face—the innocent, smiling visage of Lily. Valarie's heart was also filled with an aching void, all of it jolted by sudden memories, fragmented and unclear, but enough to make her startle awake.Tears sting at her eyes as she scrambles to recall what had occurred. Where is Lily? Is she even dead or alive? The thought of anything happening to Lily sent a chill down Valarie's spine because it signified that it was high time for

Walking into his office, Dominic's eyes scanned the room until they found John standing with a little girl. Dominic's confusion at having to ask, "Who is she?" was palpable. "She's the girl Kael admitted to the hospital," John said in a low, serious voice. "Found her where Valarie was staying with that elderly couple."Dominic turned his eyes to the little girl hiding behind Kael, who peeked out at him, wide-eyed with fear, before ducking back down again."Why is she here?" said Dominic in a serious tone. Kael looked down, his voice barely a whisper, saying, "I thought she would be safe here... and she could keep Valarie company."Dominic turned to Kael and gave him a stern look. "Company for Valarie? That's not needed; send her back." Kael looked imploringly up to him and said, "But where will she go? She's all alone. Victor killed her grandparents."Dominic's voice went cold and detached when replying, "That's not our concern. You wanted to save her; you did. Now babysitting her isn'

They both lay there on the bed, spent but satisfied with their playful hours. Now Lily was gazing up at Valarie. "Why did those people shoot Grandpa and Grandma?" she asked innocently, her tiny voice betraying raw emotion. "They're good people."Valarie's smile faded into a straight line as she turned to look at Lily's face. Innocence, curiosity—all that she saw—and her heart ached, stung painfully. This little girl here had witnessed so much in her short life, and Valarie didn't want to imagine more for her.She inhaled deeply and tried to find the right words to explain. "Because they are good people, so God wants them too," she muttered softly, in her voice. "That's why he called them back."Lily's face looked up to Valarie, searching for understanding. Planet Valarie could see confusion and sadness, but also a spark of hope. With that little hand, Lily reached out and grabbed onto Valarie, holding tightly.She felt the lump in her throat as she saw Lily's face. She knew that she ou

Valarie asked in a shock-ridden tone, "Did you really invite Dominic?" as she looked wide-eyed at Lily.Lily grinned and said, "Yes, I did. He gave us permission to go to Disneyland, and I think he's nice."But then Valarie turned all too serious, taking a seat at the very same level as Lily and looking straight into her eyes."You don't know him, Lily. He can be... dangerous.""Discussing me, I presume?" said Dominic out of nowhere.Her face expressionless, Valarie looked up to Dominic. But on the other hand, a bright smile lit up Lily's face. "Dominic! The car is ready, right?"With a hint of a smile on his face, Dominic nodded. "Yes, it is. Shall we?"With that, Lily jumped with great excitement, clasping her school bag and headgear as she ran out of the room, followed closely, albeit with Dominic saying, "If you don't want me to come, I won't," to Valarie as she skirted past him.Valarie's pace faltered, and she turned to face him. "Lily invited you, not me. It's your prerogative,"

Valarie walked towards the car, holding Lily's hand; she couldn't help but notice Dominic sitting in another car, his eyes fixed on some point in front of him. She knew that look, that posture, and she could sense the anger emanating from him. She felt a pang of guilt for accusing him of hurting Lily, and she knew that he was not going to forgive her easily.As she reached the car, Lily suddenly pulled her hand free from Valarie's grip. "I want to sit with Dominic," she said, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "I feel safe with him."Valarie's eyes widened in surprise, and she felt a sting from Lily's words. Just a few minutes ago, she had accused Dominic of being a monster, of being capable of hurting Lily. But now, Lily was saying that she felt safe with him. Valarie's mind was reeling with conflicting emotions, and she didn't know what to do."Lily, wait," she said, trying to stop her, but it was too late. Lily had already run towards the car where Dominic was sitting, and the guar
