CHAPTER 146

THE NIGHTMARES NEVER COME AN END

ALEXANDER

At the end of the day, I drove him in silence. My hands were gripping the steering wheel hard and my knuckles were white from it.

I sat in my car in darkness when I got home, the engine off. I still almost couldn't believe Elise was free. That woman was working around without handcuffs?? A vermin like that?

Mental health issues? PTSD? Trauma from the marriage?

I laughed bitterly under my breath. That woman has never been traumatized a day

    CHAPTER 151THE SILENT THINGS WE CARRYISABELLAI held Camille's gaze after she said those words, and everything about her eyes screamed murderous intent. Okay… maybe not literally, but she did look like she'd continue from where her father stopped if she got a hold of Julien. So without saying anything, I just nodded and started walking.Thankfully, Camille didn't push. She just fell into step beside me with her shoulder brushing mine, and started walking with me. Her silence was heavier than any question she could've asked, and she stuck to it. The sand was soft beneath our shoes, the waves crashing in a rhythm that matched nothing inside me.I remained silent, moving with my legs. We walked, and walked, and walked some more. A"You know," Camille said finally, her voice coming out dry and a bit hesitant, "if you're leading me to hell, you could at least warn a girl. I'd like to freshen up first and maybe pick a few bikinis for the heat."The fuck did she just say!?I turned to loo

    CHAPTER 150THE LEVERAGEALEXANDERAfter almost ten minutes of driving, I pulled up at the company. The building was already getting scanty, workers had begun to leave for the day, but some still remained. I walked through the lobby and headed straight to the elevator. Getting in, I punched in my floor number and stood in silence, waiting for arrival. I hope whatever Matheiu brings to me would make me feel something other than the rage still simmering in my chest.Mathieu was already waiting outside my office door, a case folder clutched in his left hand. When I met with his eyes, they were bright with the kind of excitement that only came from digging up someone else's dirt. And it got me excited too. But I didn't show it. “Mr Moreau… I expected you sooner,” he said with a small smile. "Well… I'm here."I unlocked the door and walked inside. The lights flickered on the minute we walked in, the city sprawled beyond the windows, indifferent to whatever was about to go down in this

    CHAPTER 149BLOWING OFF HALF TRUTHSISABELLAIt's over…I let out a long, shaky breath, one that didn't make me feel any better than I was already feeling. The kitchen was still after Alexander walked out. The only sound was the crash of the waves against the shore and the sound of Julien grunting from his injury. But my hands wouldn't stop shaking and my heart wouldn't stop pounding. Alexander's footsteps faded down the hallway as Camille rushed to Julien. "Oh my God, are you okay? Let me see your face—"She reached for him, but before she could fully touch his face, he shoved her hand away."Don't touch me. I'm fine.”"Julien, you're bleeding though. Are you sure you're fine?""Would you be okay if you were in my shoes and your girlfriend's best friend's father just busted your face open?" He asked, his voice thick and clogged with blood. "For touching your own girlfriend?"My head snapped towards him, anger burning behind my eyes as my voice came out low and sharp. "Don't you d

    CHAPTER 148MY FISTS LOOK GOOD IN REDALEXANDERThere's a specific colour you see when you've been holding back anger for as long as you could remember it and then something ticks you off and you explode. Yeah… that colour. I saw red.Not RED as in the metaphor or the figure of speech, the world around me literally disappeared. The kitchen, the light, the sound of the waves crashing against the shore, all of it was gone, and all I could see was his rough grip on her arm with his fingers digging into her skin. The exact fucking way she was scared and trying to pull away. That was all I fucking saw!I don't remember crossing the room, all I remember was mu fist connecting with his miserable jaw. Followed by the satisfying crack of his bone and the angle his head turned. Julien staggered like the coward that he is, hitting the wall before he slumped to the floor. That should have been enough to satisfy the anger inside me and I should've stopped, but that anger was yet to be pacified

    CHAPTER 147FINALLY… A BREAKING POINTISABELLAI stood in front of my mirror, towel-drying my hair, unable to stop smiling. Last night replayed in my head like a dream I didn't want to wake from. I didn't know I needed his dick inside me that much until he was buried deep inside me. That thick, veiny, meat.I caught my reflection smiling like an idiot and shook my head.Get it together, Izzy!I pulled on a sundress, something light and easy. I didn't bother with makeup, my cheeks were already flushed. I didn't need help looking like I was in love.I walked out of my room and almost collided with Camille.She was standing in the hallway, her hair brushed and her face was brighter than yesterday. I could still see the shadows under her eyes, but there was a genuine smile on her face. "Morning," she said."Morning." I smiled. "You look... good.""I feel less like garbage." She looped her arm through mine. "Come on., let's get breakfast before my mother shows up to the table and it ruin

PTSD? Trauma from the marriage?I laughed bitterly under my breath. That woman has never been traumatized a day in her life. She was THE trauma.I forced myself out of the car and into the house.I typed in the code to the front door and walked in. An empty and quiet hallway met me, the silence pressing against my ears like cotton.I climbed the stairs slowly with one thing in mind. I needed to speak to Camille. We didn't leave things on good terms, not since the trial. But right now, after Victor's damage, she needs me. The least I can do is be there. I was the one who failed to protect her. I stopped o
