I woke up when I felt the sunlight hit my face. It was so dazzling that I immediately closed my eyes. I slowly turned my back and my eyes widened when I saw Gio sitting. It was staring at me and even grinning, as if it was pleased that I was lying here in the hospital bed. Really stupid. "It's good that you woke up, I thought you were going to live here." He promised still smiling. I avoided looking at him and ignored him. I was restless in silence so I was about to speak when the door to my room opened. "Good morning," the Doctor greeted us. Gio just nodded and I just stared. "Oh, it's still you, man. When were you admitted here, it looks like you're sick of the hospital?" the doctor said jokingly. I forced a smile at what he said. "I'm just kidding." He seriously promised me. I avoided looking at him and turned to Gio. "Iha, you are depressed, I hope you take care of yourself, taking life is not the solution to solving the problem, trust in God because he is the only one who can hel
We are currently on a flight today, the surroundings are so quiet that's why I feel alone. Maybe it's better so he won't hurt me. Less talk, less mistakes and pain. I sighed and looked outside the car. I hope my body can handle all the pain he is giving me. I hope my heart can also handle the tortures he is doing to me. "I just want to tell you, that I divorced Trisha because you took her place. My rules are that I will make only one slave, I don't want two, it will be difficult for me to punish you at the same time so for your benefit as well I divorced him, is that okay with you?" he promised me coldly. I just nodded at him and didn't moan anymore. "I want an answer, honey." "Y-Yes, that's okay with me," I nervously answered him. "Good," he grinned. It took us a few hours to get to the condo. I didn't have the strength to get out of the car, he entered the condo first and didn't even help me out. When I entered, my chest quickly ached because he didn't even support me. He used to be
A few days ago all I felt was pain. Gio uses me every day, fortunately he doesn't take me to the red room of pain. I will not be able to whip, spank or any other way for him to hurt me physically. That Gio who loved me so much is gone, he has changed. I can't go to the office anymore because of the pain in my bottom and body. I also have bruises because he carelessly claimed me. He treats me as a slave and I can't do anything about it. I promised him to save him from his nightmare but I was his victim. I'm the one who hurts so much, every day we're together I feel like I want to throw up on him. I don't want him anymore but this heart of mine is the traitor, it's still beating. If ony I can teach my heart to stop loving him, I have already done it. A loud knock caught my attention and that's why I opened the door of Gio's condominium. I'm the only one here because Gio is working at the company. Shock registered on my face when I saw Aira's worried face with her boyfriend Tom. They are
Scarlet POV Only a few hours passed when Aira and Tom got home from my condo. Now I am here in Nay Loling's room and I am sleeping here first. Sometimes I'm in Gio's room but most of the time I hang out here. My things and clothes are also here. I didn't want to stay there because I just remembered my pains with Gio. I would like to leave here in his powder like Aira said but I promised that I will be with him until the end. I know there is a reason why he does this to me. I know because I overheard their conversation with the other person on the phone that if he doesn't follow it I will be destroyed. That's why I still put up with him. It's really frustrating because instead of telling me the truth and letting us solve the problem, he's taking it upon himself. I told him, what's the point of being his girlfriend if he can't open up about what's wrong and the problem now. I really want him to be open to me but he's the only one not trying that. It hurts so much because instead of the
Scarlet POVThe next day I woke up early because I was excited to meet Gio's hired architect and engineer. I know he's still sleeping now so I cooked our breakfast first. I only spent a few minutes getting ready when I heard his door open. I turned to Gio and his face was frowning at me. Is this a problem? The morning frowned."Good morning, Gio. Breakfast is ready!” I greeted him enthusiastically but he only looked at me. Is that a snob?"There is nothing good about this day, especially when I see your face," he promised me coldly. Suddenly the pain in my chest. I swallowed my saliva and was about to answer but no words came out of my chest. He hurts me every morning."Really? That's why I want to move to a condo, so you won't see me anymore," I promised. I worked up the courage to tell him that. It hurt to hear that but I had to take heart."I still prefer you here," he promised."You just want to hurt me more, what is my fault for you to do this to me, Gio? I'm not guilty, I didn't do an
Scarlet POVWe didn't talk to each other while traveling, I didn't want to talk to him either because I didn't want to argue with him and to avoid pain, emotionally.The flight was only a few minutes when we arrived at a Café near Gio's company. He stopped in front of the cafe and lined up with the parked cars in the parking lot. I immediately got out of his car and thanked him. I don't understand why he still parked, I'll get off right away.I was about to walk when I saw his car door open and he got out. It just raised an eyebrow at me and smirked."Where are you going? Are you coming too?” I asked him."Yes, why? I am also in your meeting. Is there a problem?" he said and just passed me. I shook my head at him. I can negotiate, I will actually go with you.I followed him inside, I saw him hugging two handsome men like him. They look like twins, but one is cuter to me. I approached them and smiled sweetly."Hi!" I greeted the two men in front of me. They immediately looked at me and
Gio was driving the car so fast, I was too scared of him. His eyes were staring at the road. I was shaking so much and I didn't know how to tame him. "Gee, honey. Please calm down. Please slow down the speed of the car or we will have an accident," I told him crying but he didn't even pay attention to what I said. "Gio," I called him. "Will you please shut your mouth?" he yelled at me so I just closed my eyes and prayed to all the saints I know so that we don't get into an accident. I've been crying for a while but I'm holding it back because he might get angry with me again.It was only a few minutes ago when we pulled up to the condo. I breathed a sigh of relief, thank God because nothing bad happened to either of us. Gio immediately got out of the car and opened the door for me. He violently pulled me out and grabbed my hand. His grip on me was very tight. I can't resist because someone might see us, I don't want his public image to be tarnished. I act normal while he holds my h
The next day I immediately went to the site of my restaurant. Even before I went there, I prepared Gio's breakfast. I don't know, even though he is hurting me, I still want to serve him. I really love him. This is how I am a martyr to that man.I kept the money that Gio gave me in exchange for my resignation as his secretary in my bank account. I also sent mom and dad money and had our house and shop renovated. My family was very happy. I want to be happy too but I can't. I can't be happy because my boyfriend Gio and I are not okay now.The flight was only a few minutes when I reached the site. Fortunately, Noah texted me with the exact address of my restaurant's site. I don't care if Gio gets mad at me, I also want the restaurant I'm building to be visited. It's mine but why is he always followed? I will build it so I have the right to it and not him. Everything he wants is followed."Good morning, Scarlet!" Noah shouted greetings to me and immediately approached me."Good morning to
