I Married the Devil by Choice Chapter 10 Finally Free
Ryan didn't leave my side for a second. He was there even when I went to the precinct to give them my statement. I didn't want to hold him back, but I was at a complete loss as to how to make him leave. In the end, I let him be.After I told the officers what I'd been through, including what Josh had done to my mother and me, even the more experienced officers couldn't help but burn with anger.They wanted to head right out to the rural mountain village where my mother was buried and investigate her death. However, the lookouts would spot them a mile away if they rushed in. Plus, the other kidnapped women in the village would be in danger since the villagers would destroy all evidence, which meant hiding the bodies.…To be safe, I decided to return to the village as Josh's daughter and pay my respects to my mother, which wouldn't trigger too many alarm bells."Why are you back? Where's Josh? Why can't we reach him?"The village chief stopped me for questioning the second I set
I Married the Devil by Choice Chapter 9 This Time, I Wasn't Alone
Josh froze as everything instantly coalesced together into a very clear picture. That was when he started getting anxious. After all, he had just let slip the truth that my mother was dead, which meant I no longer had a weak spot. In other words, I could now turn to the police!Still, it took me a while to gather my wooly brain together. I couldn't tell whether Lydia was really here to save me or whether it was just a sick hallucination.It wasn't until Josh screamed in panic and told the driver to run the red light that I realized I really was being rescued.The roads were filled with cars, so there was no way Josh could get away now. The van had barely blown through the red lights when a car cut it off by ramming into us, causing our vehicle to flip onto its side. Then, I heard the wail of sirens, Lydia's frantic calls, and Josh's furious cursing.To me, it sounded like heaven. My tense muscles gradually relaxed, and I closed my eyes, allowing myself to fall into that sweet p
I Married the Devil by Choice Chapter 8 My Mother Was Already Gone
Once I'd resigned myself to my fate, my heart died with it. There was no room for despair now, just endless numbness.I thought nothing could stir it again, until I heard Josh talking with the villager who was driving. "You're such a coward. So what if we're in the city? This bitch will take my word as law as long as her Achilles' heel is in my grasp."The driver shot me a puzzled glance upon hearing his words and said, "But you have already beaten her mother to death. What weak spot does she have left?"Josh roared with laughter, causing the wrinkles on his face to bunch together. Coupled with that dark gleam in his eyes, he looked like a demon in human skin."Her mother is dead, but she doesn't know it. So, she would never suspect me if I told her that her mother's still alive."My heart stalled as I stared at Josh in a daze.He took notice of it and laughed even louder. "Caught that, did you? I'll say it again. Your mother was fucked to death. That slut helped you escape, but
I Married the Devil by Choice Chapter 7 The Last Thing Holding Me Back
Josh licked his lips, savoring his next words as he swallowed the blood down. "You might not miss me, but you must surely miss your mother. After all, she gave up half her life to buy you the chance to escape. Do you really have it in you to let her keep suffering?"His words doused the thought that had just sprung up in me, which was to kill him with my own two hands.I could never forget what my mother had done for me the day I escaped. I could never forget her shielding me with everything she had every time they tortured us.My eyes blurred with tears as I thought about my mother's love for me. I was brought back to the memory of her reaching into her clothes for the pig slop she'd snatched and holding it up to my mouth."Hurry up and eat it, Amelia. You need strength to run."I had no right to be disgusted by the food as I wolfed it down, and I wasn't. Then, I took advantage of Josh's drunken state as I bit through the ropes and made a break for it.My mother and I had tried
I Married the Devil by Choice Chapter 6 My Three Years Had Been for Nothing
I jolted back to life in that split second as my whole body went rigid! My very soul was praying that Lewis would bring that knife down!The city was nothing like the rural villages. Once Lewis killed someone, there was no way he'd escape the law. So, he wouldn't be able to lock me up and torture me once he was a murderer. I'd be free of every single shadow of my past in one fell swoop. Then and only then would I be able to have a fresh start.The excitement set my blood boiling, and I used all my strength to drag myself toward the kitchen.Thud!The muffled sound of a knife sinking into flesh was like music to my ears. Alas, my blood froze in my veins upon taking a closer look.Lewis was the one who was killed.Josh had done hard labor in the mountains for most of his life. Although he was old, he had far more patience and was more ruthless than Lewis could ever be. It turned out that he had faked defeat and endured the beating just to wait for a decisive moment to strike ba
I Married the Devil by Choice Chapter 5 The Moment I Had Waited For
Lewis bared his teeth and charged at Josh first.He was young and strong. One of his hands twisted into Josh's collar while the other balled into a fist. Then, he wasted no time hammering his fist into Josh with everything he had.My lips split apart as I grinned in ecstasy, my whole body shaking in anticipation.After all, I had waited years for this day! I had been waiting for Josh to be beaten to death on the spot, to watch Lewis smash my nightmare with his own hands.However, Lewis stopped just as Josh went down with blood all over his face. Then, he threw Josh on the floor and turned back to me with a snarling grin. "Amelia, this guy you found is a piece of garbage. Now, nobody's coming to save you."In that split second, a chill ran down my spine as endless fear swallowed me whole like a freezing tsunami.If Lewis let Josh walk out of here, all my years of suffering would be for nothing. When that happened, Josh would take every humiliation he had suffered here and turn i
