My Ex Called Me Fat, Now His Father-in-Law Wants Me The Forest
Chapter 129: The ForestPOV: CaiClara knocked at half past nine.It was two soft raps, light and pretty, like someone tapping on glass. I knew who it was before the door opened. She was the only person in the whole house who knocked like that.I was sitting up in bed with the lamp on and the pencil in my fist. I wasn't asleep. I hadn't been asleep once since Dad left. The house had gone strange and quiet, because the maids had all gone to bed early and nobody walked past my door. Only the rain was tapping on the window."Cai?" Clara came in with a tray. She wore her yellow dress, and the little white dog trotted in behind her and sat by the door, staring at me with its bulging black eyes. "I made you tea."I looked at the cup. There was a slice of lemon on top, and a spoon sitting in it."Is there sugar?""Two lumps. Just how you like it."I didn't say anything. I hate sugar in tea. Everybody in that house knew it, even the cook, and Clara had lived there my whole life. She put the t
My Ex Called Me Fat, Now His Father-in-Law Wants Me Who Helped?
Chapter 128: Who Helped?POV: OdetteI thought he was leaving.He stopped at the edge of the light with his hand on the iron door, and I heard him sigh. Then he turned around and came back, slowly, his polished shoes tapping on the concrete, like a man who couldn't resist a second helping of dessert.Far away, over the rain, a church bell began to strike.I counted without meaning to. Eight. Nine. Ten.Ten o'clock. I had told Maya to go if I wasn't at the green door by ten, and I had never in my life heard her agree to a single thing without arguing first. My throat closed. I pressed my cheek against my raised arm and shut my eyes, and the cold went straight through my wet dress and into my bones.Please, Maya. Please be gone."You're thinking very hard," Julian said.I opened my eyes. He was standing over me with his hands in his pockets, tilting his head the way he did across the dinner table, as if I were something on a plate."I'm thinking you didn't do this alone."His eyebrows w
My Ex Called Me Fat, Now His Father-in-Law Wants Me Warehouse
Chapter 127: Warehouse POV: OdetteThe first thing I felt was cold.It came up through the floor and into my bones, a damp, heavy cold that smelled of rust and old oil. My head was pounding. My mouth tasted like pennies. I tried to open my eyes, and for a moment the lids wouldn’t listen, as if somebody had glued them shut.When they finally opened, I was staring at a ceiling.It was very high and black with shadows, crossed by iron beams. Rain drummed on the roof somewhere far above, loud and steady, like a thousand fingers on a tin can. A single bare bulb hung from a wire in the middle of the room, swinging a little, and the light it gave was weak and yellow.Where am I?I tried to sit up, and my arms wouldn’t come with me.They were stretched above my head. I tilted my face back and saw my wrists locked in two thick metal cuffs, with a chain running from them up to a rusty pipe on the wall. When I pulled, the metal bit into my skin, and a hot sting went through me like a hand on a
My Ex Called Me Fat, Now His Father-in-Law Wants Me The Howl
Chapter 126: The HowlPOV: NikolaiI left the house at half past seven.It was raining, a thin steady rain that blurred the lights along the drive. I had said yes to Clara in the end. I told the housekeeper to send the staff to bed early and leave my daughter to her quiet evening. Then I stood in the front hall in a clean shirt and my good coat, feeling like a man on his way to a hanging.Cai was sitting on the third stair in his pajamas, with the pencil in his fist.“You’re going out,” he said.“Yes.”“You said it was business.”“I did.”He looked at my coat, and my shoes, and my face. He was nine years old, and he looked at me the way a judge looks at a witness.“Are you going to get her?”I should have lied. I had lied to his sister that afternoon without blinking. But my son’s gray eyes were fixed on mine, and I couldn’t do it.“I’m going to try.”“Good.” He tightened his grip on the pencil. “Don’t come back without her.”Behind him, Clara came down the stairs in her yellow dress
My Ex Called Me Fat, Now His Father-in-Law Wants Me Fighting Weak
Chapter 125: Fighting WeakPOV: OdetteThe silver burned like it was eating me alive.It started in my thigh, where the dart had gone in, a hot white pain that crawled up my hip and down my leg, as if someone had poured melted metal into my veins. I tried to breathe. The wolfsbane smoke filled the car, and every gasp dragged it deeper into my throat, sweet and bitter, until my whole chest shook with coughing.Move, I told myself. Move now, or you're finished.A gloved hand was clamped around my arm. I could feel it through my torn sleeve, big and hard, dragging me toward the open door. I threw my head back and slammed it forward, and my forehead cracked against a masked face. The man grunted and let go.I wasn't strong enough to enjoy it. The blow made my own head swim, and the whole car spun."Hold her!" somebody shouted. "Get the chains!"Another pair of hands grabbed me around the waist. I kicked backward with both feet and hit something soft. A man swore. I pulled one elbow free a
My Ex Called Me Fat, Now His Father-in-Law Wants Me The Attack
Chapter 124: The AttackPOV: OdetteThe car finally came at ten past seven.I saw the headlights first, two yellow smears coming up the drive through the rain. It was a plain black sedan, not one of the long Maybachs, and it stopped at the foot of the steps with its wipers still going. The driver jumped out with his collar turned up and ran around to open the back door."Sorry, Miss Odette," he said, wiping the rain off his face. "We had a puncture at the garage. We lost forty minutes.""It's fine.""I'll take the river road. It's shorter. We'll make up most of the time."The guard who had stood outside my door for a month held an umbrella over my head. He didn't look at me. He only nodded. I was too tired to wonder about it. All I could think was that it was ten past seven, and the rehearsal started at half past, and my mother would be furious.Good, I thought. Let her be furious.I climbed into the back seat. The door shut with a heavy thud, and the guard got into the front beside t
