Katherine was tortured by Jacob as he did it against the wall and on the sofa… over and over again. While hurting her, he also said all kinds of things that embarrassed Katherine…
When everything was over, Katherine felt as if she took a trip to hell. Her body was hurting all over.
She couldn’t stand up at all.
Jacob slammed the door and left, completely ignoring Katherine, who was weak and tired.
She lay on the sofa in the middle of the night alone and finally got the strength to return to her sickroom.
After that incident, Katherine got a high fever.
She was in a daze, and there was no nurse or doctor to take care of her. She felt cold then hot and cold again, as if she was going to die…
When she was half-asleep, someone fed her water. There was also a woman’s voice calling for a doctor…
The voice was very familiar, and it was Lucia’s.
However, why would Lucia save her? Lucia hated her so much that she wished for her death.
Before Katherine could think about it, she fell into a coma again.
When she woke up, she was receiving an IV on the back of her hand. The sun shone outside the window and the room was also bright.
Lucia stood by the bed and when she saw Katherine wake up, she headed over immediately.
“Sister, you are finally awake.” Lucia smiled and looked at her with evil in her eyes. “I took care of you for three days and nights that I didn’t even have the chance to sleep. Fortunately, you are not dead, so all my efforts wouldn’t go vain.”
Katherine frowned and looked at her, and said in a hoarse voice, “What do you plan on doing this time?”
“In fact, it’s nothing serious…” Lucia bent over and said with a grin, “Well, I took care of you. When you are discharged from the hospital, shouldn’t you return the favour and take care of me?”
Take care of her?
How could it be as simple as she said? There must be something behind it.
“Sorry, I refuse.” Katherine turned her head, not wanting to look at Lucia at all. “Get out. I don’t want to see you.”
With an aggrieved expression on her face, Lucia pulled on Katherine’s arm and pinched her with her nails silently.
“Katherine, how can you treat me like this? I just asked you to take care of me for a few days and stay with me at the same time. It’s not too much. Please, why can’t you agree?” She spoke in a hurt manner while exerting more force. Her nails pinched Katherine’s skin as if she was going to pull off a piece of flesh.
Katherine was in pain and subconsciously broke free from Lucia, but Lucia screamed at this moment. She fell back, thumped, and fell to the ground.
As soon as she fell, Jacob opened the door and entered.
Lucia was full of tears and cried, “Katherine, I was sorry… I will never ask you to take care of me again. Don’t do anything to me…”
“Katherine!” Jacob hurriedly helped Lucia up. He frowned and stared at Katherine. “You still won’t behave yourself. What trick are you playing this time?”
Katherine was tired of watching Lucia frame her and pretend to pitiful.
But Jacob took her seriously. Katherine couldn’t help but question her taste.
She lowered her eyelashes and said, “It’s my bad, Jacob. How are you going to punish me?”
After that, she suddenly smiled. “Would you like to lock me in the lounge like last time and then…”
“Katherine, shut up!” Jacob couldn’t help but yell. “How shameless are you that you can even say something like this!”
“I’m shameless.” Katherine was ready to risk everything. “I’m shameless, Jacob. If you can’t bear it, then you can either kill me or divorce me!”
Jacob squinted, looking fierce. “Are you threatening me?”
“Jake…” Lucia hurriedly said, interrupting Jacob’s words. “Don’t be angry, it’s because I didn’t do a good job just now that I angered my sister. If you want to punish her, then let her take care of me, okay? I will be discharged from the hospital soon and I need someone to take care of me. My sister understands me, so she is the most suitable one to take care of me.”
“Is she worthy?” Jacob mocked; his expression full of disgust.
“Jake, it’s my request for you. Think of it as her punishment and let her be my maid.” Lucia begged in a spoilt manner.
Jacob looked at her. His gaze was dark. After a few seconds of silence, he said coldly, “Okay. Katherine, isn’t there still an indentured servitude between us? Now I want you to sell yourself to Lucia and be her servant for life! Perfect, this is what you owe her!”
