The night was silent. Josephine was tossing about all the night without getting a wink to sleep. Holding her stomach, she was too uncomfortable to sleep the whole night.
Her eyes were bleak as she got up and went to the bathroom to wash up. Her phone suddenly rang with an alert that she had received a text message, Josephine tapped on it and the toothbrush in her hand fell into the pool with a BANG! It was from Reginald.
7: 00 p. m. at the Horizontal Hotel, Room 2501. Let’s make it clear.
At 7 p. m., she arrived at the Horizontal Hotel by taxi, alone with her big belly. She found the Room 2501, and opened the door with the room card, only to see a scene that shocked her.
Aurelia’s eyes are dazed as she was pinned down by a man……
Josephine stood dumbfounded and her whole body as stiffed as an ice statue. Before she could react, a strong wind suddenly swept past her ears.
The half-closed door was suddenly kicked open.
Reginald rushed over and clutched the man off Aurelia, using all his strength to punch him fiercely in the face before throwing him towards the ground. The atmosphere around him was depressing and his eyes was bloodshot.
Aurelia was immersed in lovemaking and could not control herself. This time she was jolted awake by the huge movement, but her mind was still not clear. Dumbly watching Reginald’s figure step to the bed, she found the man’s eyes were full of disbelief and heartache. Reginald looked at her from above.
“Reginald……” Aurelia looked at him dumbfounded, and then she turned to the other corner of the room, looking with dismay. At the corner, a man covered in blood was lying on his back. She was so frightened that she screamed out hysterically, “Ah……”
She got up from the bed and tugged at Reginald’s sleeve, desperately shaking her head with tears, “No, Reginald, no, listen to me. I don’t know what is going on, I thought he was you……”
Reginald’s whole body was trembling, and he quietly watched her crying. Suddenly, Aurelia saw Josephine standing by the door, and instantly reached out her finger, shouting out in anger and despair, ”Josephine! It’s you! You deliberately played the cards, and you drugged me and called Reginald, are you happy now?”
Josephine’s mind buzzed and she was confused.
Reginald’s body stiffened for a moment, slowly turning his head to look at her. Aurelia’s voice was full of despair, “You tricked me to here, saying that you want to talk to me properly and bury the hatchet, but you drugged my drink and found a man to insult me! I treat you as my sister, how can you do it to me?!”
Josephine stood stiffly as Reginald stepped in front of her and suddenly clutched her chin. His gloomy face was instantly surging with anger, “Josephine!”
Josephine clenched her fists hard and struggled to say something,
“I didn’t-”
“Clap.”
Before she could finish her words, Reginald pushed her away with a fierce push. Josephine’s head hit the door with a puffing sound, her eyes closed in pain, but no pain was worse than what his words hurt her.
Dizzying, she could hardly see anything, only the pain was extremely real.
Josephine clenched her teeth, too painful to say even a word, and looked up at Reginald. She thought he still didn’t believe her……
Reginald looked at her with shock and anger, not saying a word. While Aurelia behind him was getting more and more delirious from the drugs and kept calling his name, “Reginald……”
Reginald immediately rushed to her and took her into his arms. Her face was bloody red, her hair was messy, and her whole body was sweating, as if a puddle of water was melting on her. She kept pulling at Reginald’s lapel, “Reginald…… help me, I want you, I can’t stand it, give me……”
Reginald’s face sank. He pulled the bed sheet to wrap her body and picked her up. The bodyguard who came with him swept a glance at the man in the corner and asked, “Mr. Barnes, this man……”
“Arrest him and interrogate with torture!”
Reginald carried Aurelia step by step towards the door, and when he passed Josephine, he threw a warning look at her, as cold as an arrow, as if to pierce into her heart. Josephine desperately held onto the door frame to hold herself from falling down.
With a trembling voice, she looked down at Aurelia in his arms and asked, “Are you going to cure her by yourself?”
“She’s been…… drugged, and you’re going to help her yourself?”
She remembered the night she bumped into Aurelia and another man for a rendezvous. In addition, Aurelia said Reginald had never sexed with her, so she was still willing to hold on to a silver lining. She couldn’t believe that Reginald didn’t mind when he saw Aurelia was fucking with another man.
Reginald glared at her angrily, “You’re not qualified to ask!”
After he finished speaking, he directly bumped away from Josephine and paced away. Josephine touched her shoulder which was pained by his bump, gritted her teeth and followed him.
