Instead, I was led by some servants to a mansion, quite smaller than the main one. Dela and Rosalia were staying on the mansion beside this one.The servants led me to a chamber. It was spacious and had red curtains which attracted my attention right away. Did Demian choose this chamber for me? For us?“Where is my husband?” I asked the butler. His name was Michael. I knew because he introduced himself. Other servants were filling into the room with my belongings.“I do not know the whereabouts of Lord Demian. However, he told me to tell you that you should not worry about him and that he will be back soon,” Michael said. He had floppy brown hair that reminded me of Leo and small dark brown eyes that looked black. “And he also suggests that you should not accept any invitation from anyone.”“Invitation? Who is going to send
I sat in the carriage uncomfortably because comfort was not an option when you were traveling via a carriage.Dalia sat on the seat opposite mine. She was inspecting something in her nails.“I want to ask you a lot of questions, my lady. But I think you might get offended,” she said without looking at me.“If you talk to me while looking me in the eye, I might not get offended,” I said. I hated it when someone did not look me in the eye while talking. Especially, if that act was deliberate, not something unconscious.Dalia raised her head and looked at me. Her eyes were blue like the ocean.“It’s about Leo, isn’t it?” I said.She nodded.“He talked to me about you and quite tenderly as well. He told me that you two have been friends for a long time, since you two were basically children. I wanted to know if you two had any previous physical relationship.” She was direct. She did not sound impolite, just direct.“I never had any physical relationship with anyone before my husband. Leo
Demian did not come. But he sent a carriage to take me back to the estate. I still did not know exactly what transpired there. But I knew the gist.Three days ago, in the early morning, I got the news from Asher that Jade Star was dead. Asher seemed rather pleased about it and he kept staring at me with curious eyes as if he wanted to see me break. He gave me the impression that he would enjoy to see me break very much.‘Is he a sadist or something of that sorts?’“Who killed him?” I had asked.“No one knows,” Asher had said in a way that clearly meant something else; it was as if he had been saying that- ‘no one but I knows.’“What do you mean by that?” I had asked again.“The Head had him locked, but someone went in there and killed him. Decapitated his body. Before killing him, the killer tortured him as much as possible.”It was Demian. I did not even have to ask anyone to know that. Perhaps there was no proof of Demian actually doing it, but I knew it was him. He did it for me. H
Jade Star was chained to the wall, blood dripping from the tips of his fingers where his nails had been.I felt nothing but anger when I looked at him. He should be suffering much more.“What are you doing here, boy? Came to talk?” Jade Star asked. He was angry too. He was frustrated. He just tried not to show it.“You hurt my wife,” I said.“Your wife?” He let out a bitter laugh. “You took away my daughter! Your father took away my sister! And you are saying I hurt your wife?”“Sully went to you because she thought you would protect her, just like you should have, because she is your daughter. You asked her whether she was raped by me or not and she said she consented. You did not like it when she told you that she was pregnant. You beat her up cruelly and you caused a miscarriage.”“I do not regret a single thing I did,” he spat.“You hurt the woman I love. You hurt her not just physically. You caused her to lose a father even when he is alive,” I said calmly. I did not feel calm.“
