The passionate kiss took Dorothy’s breath away.
She wanted to push him away, but Credence held her small hand firmly. He placed her hand on his burning chest. Through his black shirt, Dorothy could feel his torrid body heat and throbbing heart.
He attacked her red lips furiously. Their lips rubbed against each other passionately. The kiss slowly turned into something tender and hot, rippling with affection. She could not refuse him at all.
A moment later, Dorothy realized that her clothes were slowly being taken off. The man slowly unbuttoned her blouse, half of her snowy-white waist was already revealed. Panicked, she clenched her fists and pounded on his shoulder, “Oh, Credence, let go of me!”
The next second, the man’s lazy chuckle could be heard coming from above her. The tip of Credence’s tongue traced around her mouth and made its way into it wantonly, stealing her breath once more.
His cool and refreshing breath invaded her nose, making her dizzy. She had lost the strength to resist him and her little hands hung on his waist feebly. Slowly, she felt a bulging sensation coursing through her body.
She was a woman who was married and had a child after all, so she naturally knew what that sensation was. She could feel the man’s erection through his pants as his member began to swell bigger and bigger.
She was afraid that he would do it to her in the car just like that. Terrified, Dorothy tried her best to shy away from his advances but subconsciously caught the tip of his tongue with her lips and sucked down hard on it.
“Hiss.”
Credence let out a low grunt and begrudgingly drew back his tongue. He bit his thin lips and whispered, “I’m going to assume you are playing hard to get right now.”
Who was trying to play hard to get?! Dorothy scoffed to herself at that idea.
Dorothy cast a sullen look at him and lowered her head to quickly hitch her skirt down from its revealing position. She suddenly raised her head, stared at the man cagily, and asked, “Credence, are you doing this to me because you like me, or is it solely because you don’t want another man to fall in love with your ex-wife?”
The man smiled gently and suddenly reached out to pull her into his embrace. He lowered his head to give her a passionate kiss, “Baby if I don’t like you, would I want to f*ck you every time I see you?”
Dorothy stared at the man blankly as her heart beat faster and faster. She opened her mouth and asked, “Credence, can I still trust you?”
Would he cruelly throw her into a bottomless pit again, letting her bear the pain and despair forever after she decided to completely surrender herself to him once more?
He grinned at that question and gave her fair and tender forehead a devoted kiss. Then, he raised his head and replied with the most solemn and serious expression he could muster, “Dorothy, I will only say this once. I, Credence Scott, swear from now on, I will only treat you right, as you deserve to be. I only want to take you, and only you, as my wife. You are the only person I want to be with for the rest of my life!”
Those last words sounded inexplicably sweet to her ears.
Her heart, which wanted to lock itself away and be let alone forever, felt as if a stream of honey was poured onto it. The sweetness could nearly melt the frost on its surface.
She contemplated and decided that she would trust him once more. She would give him another chance to prove himself one last time.
At that moment, her heart pounded loudly in her chest, as if it could explode right then and there.
Dorothy closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She turned her head away and subconsciously looked out of the window, trying to calm her furious heartbeat.
To her surprise, Jonathan and a bunch of doctors came into her sight. Several doctors carried Juelz in a stretcher out of the bar. The man’s face looked ghastly pale as he was carried into the ambulance. She watched as the ambulance rushed away.
At that moment, her worry for Juelz returned once more. She heard the faint sound of her cell phone ringing and hurriedly took it out of her bag to check. It was a notification that informed her that she had received a new email.
She did not know who sent it. But just when she wanted to check it, Credence slightly tightened his grip on her soft waist and said, “It’s almost noon. Let’s have lunch first. What does Belle like to eat? We should bring something back for her.”
Following his gaze out the window, Dorothy saw that he was looking at the most famous tea restaurant in Talco City. It mainly sold light meals from abroad and she heard that the restaurant had specially recruited celebrity chefs, and the feedback from customers who had tried the food there was great as well.
She knew that Belle liked their cakes and milk tea the most. She could eat the entire store and never get tired of it.
Since the restaurant Credence had proposed was one of Belle’s favorites, Dorothy did not object. She allowed Credence to take her hand and walk her towards the table. Once they sat down, he called on the waiter and ordered a table of delicious food.
After a busy morning, Dorothy was starving. She left her elegant and virtuous image behind and began to hungrily devour the food once they were served.
In the middle of their meal, Credence’s phone let out a beep to indicate that he had received some kind of message. Then, Dorothy heard him speak softly, “Take your time, I’m going to the washroom for a bit.”
“Alright.”
Dorothy nodded casually. After Credence left the private room, she immediately took out her phone and opened her email.
It was from an unfamiliar sender. The email itself had no title or address displayed at all.
Feeling suspicious, she clicked on it to find a URL attached to the email along with a string of words that read, “Open it, you won’t be disappointed.”
She did not know who was bored enough to come up with such a dumb prank. However, that sentence had made her feel a little fearful. Her finger hovered over the link as she contemplated whether or not she should click on it.
In the end, her curiosity got the best of her. She clicked on it and a website appeared. After the video finished buffering, a picture of a mess of fair bodies suddenly flashed. She could hear a woman cursing violently and a little girl screaming in the background.
After Dorothy finally figured out what the video was about, her body trembled violently as she watched on. She almost threw her phone across the dining table.
It was a scene of Germaine and Belle being bullied by those wretched men in Rawland Lodge. Rosalie was the one who had orchestrated everything.
She could see that Germaine was hugging Belle tightly in her arms to keep the little girl safe throughout the whole incident. She bore the humiliation and torture of those men all on her own.
Her clothes were torn to pieces by the ugly and obscene men, countless fat and thick fingers moved over her bare skin. Watching her friend get violated like that made goosebumps break out all over her body.
The most horrible thing was that the group of men laughed vulgarly. It was appalling.
After watching the video only did Dorothy truly understand the horrors Germaine had to endure when she had been kidnapped by Rosalie.
She really owed Germaine too much.
She endured the burning ache in her heart and hurriedly skipped the video to the very end as she could not bear to watch anymore. At the end, a line of bloody red words could be seen.
Dorothy stared at the bloody handwriting as her breathing became heavier and more suffocating.
