He was not Elijah! In her panic, Esther discovered this fact for the first time. However, how could there be such a similar face?
Esther found that she was tied to the big bed, covered with a quilt and her feet and hands were tied.
What’s more shocking was that this person in front of her had the outline of Elijah, and even his eyes were as cold as Elijah’s, but there was no charm in his eyes. It could only be said that he looked like Elijah.
This discovery made Esther stupefied. “You, you are not Elijah!” she stammered.
That person was also stunned, then quickly walked over with a mischievous smile. “Baby, how can I not be Elijah?”
“No! You are not.” Esther screamed, “You, I know, the person in that video is you, not Elijah!”
The man sat down by the bed, with a strange flash in his eyes. Suddenly he lowered his head and vaguely kissed Esther’s red lips.
“Um…” Esther’s eyes were wide open as she was more sure that this person was not Elijah and even the breath was not the same as his. She felt disgusted. “Yuck. Get out of here…” she yelled.
But that person was still kissing her hard, and then gnawed her lips wildly, with punishment, with shame, sucking her breath and sweetness.
Esther tightly closed her teeth, so that his tongue could not be further unrestrained. However, her limbs were tied and she couldn’t move, so she could only bite her teeth desperately to keep his tongue out.
“Open your mouth!” With a low roar and anger, the man suddenly grabbed Esther’s neck, and his fingers gradually tightened. “Otherwise I might strangle you!”
Her breathing became faint gradually as dizziness overcame Esther. She thought of death for a moment, but Elijah’s face flashed through her mind at the same time. Suddenly, she opened her mouth to breathe, and the man also took the opportunity to stick his tongue into her mouth, occupying every inch of her.
“Baby…” She shook her head and bit down. The smell of blood spread.
(Unspeakable)
“No! Let me go. You want me to leave Elijah, don’t you? I will, but keep your hands off me! No.” Esther felt so humiliated. “Don’t touch me,” she cried.
“Ha, little girl, you’re smart. But if I let you go, how can I be sure that you will not continue to be with Elijah?”
“Why do you want me to break up with Elijah?”
“Because…” That person said, raising his eyebrow, “I am not happy!”
“You…” What nonsense. “Why are you unhappy?”
“Esther, be my girlfriend. Think about it. I don’t mind that you were his woman. How about that?”
“Go to hell! I won’t be with you. Who are you?”
“It seems that you can’t recognize me now!” The man raised his eyebrow again
“Girl, I want to thank you! If it weren’t for you, how could I have been bought by Elijah?”
“Who are you?” Esther was stunned, looking at his same sharp eyes, which were so cold and she seemed to have seen those eyes from somewhere. Something dawned on her as she said, “Are you that prostitute from G Bar?”
The man said with a smile, “You have a great memory! Let me reward you.”
Then the man gave a kiss on her lips.
“Get out of here! It’s disgusting,” Esther screamed again.
(Unspeakable)
Esther was stunned and terrified. After a long time of struggling, she was exhausted and fainted.
“Well! She’s so easy to be shocked.” The man raised his eyebrows and patted Esther’s face. “Little girl, wake up?”
Making sure she fainted, the man put on his clothes, tied his belt, and dialed. “Per your request, it’s done. Can I leave now? I’m going to go back!”
The person on the other end said something and the man said to the microphone, “Well, don’t worry!”
As he untied the rope on Esther’s hand, he patted her face. Thinking that the medicine may have worked, he tucked her in and was about to leave.
The door was kicked open with a bang.
“Philip?” At the moment when the door was opened, the man had already been on guard. He quickly dodged Philip’s fierce and frightening fist, but at the same time, he had to admire Philip’s swift movements.
***
Seeing Esther lying on the bed, Philip breathed a sigh of relief, but when his sight fell on the man, he was stunned. “Elijah?”
“Philip, you can find this place. It’s really admirable.” With a smile, the man looked at Philip with cold eyes.
He didn’t expect Philip to come.
Philip was slightly at a loss when another person barged in.
“Joyce, are you sure Elijah left?”
“Master, I’m sure!” When the intruder saw the man, he was stunned and looked back. “Well, how is that possible?”
“He is not Elijah!” said Philip, looking at the man carefully.
“Eh!” The man was slightly stunned and he glanced at Philip’s cold eyes. He said with a smile, “I’m sorry, but I had sex with Esther already. It doesn’t matter whether I am Elijah or not!”
Philip held Esther in his arms and looked down to examine her. When he saw the hickeys on her neck, he looked at the man beside him with fierce eyes. He said in a threatening tone, “You’d better be prepared enough. In this life, you can’t escape the fate of being chased and killed!”
The man snorted in disdain, looking at Philip. “Then I’ll wait for you to chase me!” he sneered.
With a bang, while the man punched Joyce on the shoulder, Philip also quickly punched the man on the chest, and the three began to fight in the room.
However, the man ran out of the room in a twinkling of eye.
“Joyce, catch up with him!” Philip turned to pick up Esther.
Joyce went after the man who looked like Elijah while Philip took Esther to his car.
Back to Philip’s apartment.
Esther woke up and sat up with a jerk, checking her body. She tried to sort her mind to calm herself down.
Had she been raped?
“Esther?” Philip came over with a glass of water. Seeing her wake up, he immediately sat by the bed. Esther, are you okay?”
“I, you are Philip?” Esther looked at him in a daze. “Did I have…?”
She wanted to ask if she had been raped.
Philip didn’t know what to answer as he didn’t see anything when he came in and he didn’t know if that man was telling the truth.
“No!” Esther stood up and rushed straight to his bathroom. She did not know if she had been raped, but she could not feel the same way, and she needed to confirm!
In the bathroom.
Esther untied the clothes uneasily, and she was shocked to see the hickeys on her neck. Tears rushed out, covering her beautiful moving face.
“I’m filthy!” She murmured, turning on the shower switch and began to wash.
She didn’t know if she had been raped, but she felt extremely disgusted and frightened seeing the hickeys on her body and the thighs that the man had touched.
Esther wanted to wash away the traces.
Philip waited outside for a long time and did not see Esther come out. He asked with concern, “Esther, are you alright?”
He was not sure what happened, and he was worried. After all, the man said such a word after he went in, which made it difficult for him to determine whether Esther had been raped.
After her shouting many times, Philip had no way but to barge in.
As the door opened, there came a cry from the inside, “Don’t come over…”
Philip, who was stunned at the door, pulled a wide towel around her when he saw Esther curled up in the corner with no clothes on, shivering.
“Ah… Get out of here! Don’t touch me. Get out of here!” Esther cried in desperation, kicking him. She was so frightened and she wanted to escape, but she was helpless.
“Esther, don’t be afraid! I’m your brother! It’s me.” Philip said in a husky voice and he picked her up
“Don’t touch me, no…” Esther cried, trembling. “Don’t touch me. Get out!”
Philip, however, despite her struggle, took her to bed, wrapped in a quilt, his eyes full of worries. “Esther, sorry. I didn’t protect you! I’m sorry.”
Esther held herself tightly with her hands, sobbing like a wounded animal, “Don’t touch me.”
Esther, can’t you remember it? I am your brother, Philip!” said he over her head. Esther was startled.
Holding her into his arms, Philip stroked her. Esther was like a floating boat. After several waves, she finally found the port where she stopped. She let him embrace her, and tears fell.
She cried in his arms.
In the silent night, it made him painful to hear her cry.
Philip hugged her tightly, her tears falling on him. Philip looked at her with pity. “I am your brother. I know you forget. It’s my fault. I failed to protect you. I’m very sad!”
“Brother?” Finally, Esther, who had regained her sense, stopped crying and she was confused by Philip’s words.
Looking up, she saw Philip, who was looking down at her with concerns in his eyes. She finally returned to her mind and looked at him with a complicated look. “You are my brother? Who are you?”
“Yes. I am Philip Howden. I have been looking for you and mom for more than ten years since the year you two disappeared. I have searched the whole United States, but every time I was disappointed. I finally got the news that you came back more than ten years ago. But when I came, the news was that you and mom were dead, but I didn’t believe that. I was sure you and mom will be somewhere waiting for me!”
Philip looked at Esther, who was lost in her mind and continued, “Later, I found that mother changed your name from Crystal Howden into Crystal Perry, and then changed by others to Esther. I thought you were gone because I didn’t found out that you were Eula Perry’s daughter at first. And it seems to be a false image, deliberately making news that you are not here so that we will not meet again.”
Esther looked up in dismay and looked at Philip’s painful face. The eyes, which were always high and unpredictable, were now suffering the pain that he could not bear, which made him all covered by pain and sorrow.
“Who is my dad?” Involuntarily, Esther raised her small hand to gently smooth his frown, as if there was any vague memory bursting out of her mind.
“Your dad is Filip Howden, Christ’s college classmate. They also fell in love with our mother Eula Perry, but mom ended up marrying dad!”
“Our father?” Esther looked at him in a daze, and she felt comfortable and warm seeing Philip’s gentle eyes.
“Well!” Philip took down her hand and held it tightly. “Baby, we’re brother and sister who share the same parents. You’re my sister!”
“Same father and mother!” Esther murmured, “Brother? Are you my brother?”
“Yes!” Philip pulled out the drawer and took out a picture. It was a picture of a family of four, on which a man was handsome, looking just like Philip and the woman was Eula Perry. Esther had seen it when Christ showed her.
Now the photos were in front of her, and Esther was in a complicated mood. What’s more, she believed and she didn’t know why!
“I don’t remember! Why don’t I remember that?” Esther frowned in doubt. “But I believe you are my brother!”
He looked at her with doting eyes, making Esther’s eyes weep. She said with excitement, her hand trembling, “No wonder every time I meet you, I feel strange. It turns out that you are my brother.”
“Yes! I am your brother. In this world, there are only us. We are a family! I have nothing but you! I will protect you and give the happiness of your whole life!” Philip said calmly. He looked at Esther with a sigh, “Unfortunately, our mother was cheated! She was created by Christ!”
