Chapter 7
1 slid past him and walked straight into the living room. Amidst the exclamations of my friends, I smashed the television with a hammer.
Someone wanted to stop me
Steve muttered, “Let her smash!”
“You all leave, my business with her has nothing to do with you!” The room was in a mess, only Steve and I were left.
He spoke, “Have you had enough? If you haven‘“) vented enough, you can continue smashing!”
“Take it off.”
“What
“The clothes you are wearing. I bought them, take them off!”
Steve remained silent for a long time, letting out a cold laugh.
He took off his shirt with one hand and kicked off his pants.
Are you satisfied?
– I didn’t say anything and went straight to the bedroom.
When I dragged my suitcase out, there was a strong smell of smoke outside.
Steve has changed his clothes.
He leaned against the wall, holding a cigarette
As I walked past him, he grabbed my wrist.
“What else do you want?”
I looked at him. “Our business is finished, and there is no connection anymore!”
Steve’s hand suddenly tightened, causing me pain.
“Josie, you’ve done enough. You’ve destroyed our home and ruined my reputation. What else are you not satisfied with?”
I chuckled
“This question should be asked to you. You have been finding fault enough, and now that I am voluntarily stepping back, what else are you unsatisfied
“I didn’t!”
Steve gritted his teeth and spoke through clenched jaws, word by word.
I broke free from his hand and pointed to the location of his heart.
with someone else? You don’t even dare to admit it?”
“Ask yourself, come on. Don’t be such a coward, isn’t it just falling in love w
After completely breaking up with Steve, I went on a trip with a group to another place to gather inspiration
At first, my mood was not as calm as I appeared.
During the day, I could talk and laugh with people.
When the night grew late and quiet, tears would always flow.
I couldn’t help but recall every little detail about Steve and!
and Vivian, as well as my memories of them.
Steve was quite attractive
He looked good, coupled with that rascal–like appearance,
Always boldly approached and flirted
Steve would always casually block them back.”
Over the years, Steve and I have had many arguments about various things, but we have never had a romantic relationship
I never thought he would like someone else.
Even when he was being entical ne in various ways, I never thought it was because he had fallen for someone else.
So gentle, so obedient Completely different from the dominance and tyranny in front of me.
Was that what he looked like when he liked someone?
What do my nine years count for?
Did he never really like me?
The emotional turmoil caused me sleepless nights and restless meals.
Just the thought of him comparing me to Vivian and feeling like I couldn’t measure up made me suffocate.
After another sleepless night, I left the hotel and went to a bar, ready to get drunk
I hadn’t
even reached the bar when someone stopped me on the way.
They were drunk, staggering towards me.
In an instant, my heart rose to my throat.
Trembling and stepping back, he took out his phone and dialed 911.
“Beauty, alone so late, would you accompany me and my friends for a drink?”
The smell of alcohol on their bodies rushed straight into my face. I held my breath, turned around abruptly, and ran as fast as I could!
But he was caught by someone’s hair.
I screamed in agony and spoke rapidly into the phone, “I am on Kirkland Road, being harassed, help me!” “Damn it, they dare to call the police!” The phone was snatched by them and smashed on the ground.
I struggled with all my strength, grabbing, biting, scratching, and kicking, feeling desperate in my heart.
The explosiveness of human beings is always astonishing.
In such a situation of great disparity in strength, I stubbornly prevented them from taking advantage.
But it also ignited their anger.
Just as my hands were being restrained, my neck was being choked, and my clothes were being torn apart, the sound of a police siren rang out. “Oh no, the police are here, run quickly!”
I sat down on the ground, my mind blank, and I was completely confused.
