LOGIN" I was hoping I wouldn't have to fuck you up again "
Bella is stunned at his words, she could feel the dangerous vibes he was given. She quickly distanced herself from him. " You are cheating on me, with my sister!" " No " Vaughn says nonchalently " I cheat with other women too " " How could you do this to me?!" " We've had this conversation countless times before. It's not about you. I want some pussy, and I have enough money to get with whomever I want, so why shouldn't I?" " You...You said you loved me " " Loved you " He scoffed coldly. Vaughn felt like laughing at the moment, it was ironic the number of time they've gone through this same scenerio. This was why he couldn't stand Bella, because everything about her felt like it was repeated. But he really couldn't blame her, it was because of her mental illness. " I never loved you Isabella, I've only tolerated you this much due to your condition. I can cheat as much as I want, and you would remember non of it " Bella felt tears run down her rues, she couldn't believe that the man she loved with all her heart was saying this to her. Perhaps it would have been better if Vaughn had only been cheating on her. Right now he sounded like he hated her very existence. Bella ran pass Vaughn and went to her bedroom. She didn't try to leave the house because she knew Vaughn wouldn't let her go. She hurried took out her jot note and scribbled something inside, she then tossed it under her bed. The moment she had done this, the door of the room was pushed open; She had forgot to lock it. Bella wasn't even given the opportunity to try getting away before she was grabbed roughly by her Husband. " Vaughn, Please.." " I don't fucking have time for this today. I wish you'd just stayed out if my way " Vaughn grumbled. He was very irritated by Bella's actions. To him it was like she was prying into his business. He proffered her to be docile, to just stay put and only appear in front of him when he had need for her. Although he didn't want to hit Bella again; he was afraid that someone might start noticing. However he had no choice, he was going to be busy today and he didn't need her interfering in his business. " Whatever " He says. Bella feels pain shoot across her forehead as it hits the Cabinet. " Just fucking sleep " Vaughn tosses her on the bed and stalks out of the room. He alerts the Nurse to bandage Bella up and then left for the Company. The Nurse hurried upstairs to see Bella laying helplessly on the bed. Her heart moved in empathy for the woman, she carely came to move Bella into a more comfortable position. " Go to sleep, It won't hurt as much " Bella looked at the Nurse hesitantly, and she sudden feel a sense of Déjà vu, even though her face was covered in blood from the cut wound on her forehead, and she was feeling very dizzy, Bella still had to ask. " D...Does he always...hurt me?" The Nurse gave her a surprised look. In all the years she had been attending to the Madam after Vaughn was through with her, this was the first time Bella had openly asked this million dollar question. The Nurse was very hesitant. She knew that Vaughn McCoy's security was very tight, and there could be cameras in the room. However, she knew it wouldn't matter. Afterall, Bella wouldn't remember anything tomirrow and Vaughn wouldn't give a shit about what she told her. " He does. But only when you question him. You should stop, just be contented with the fact that you are his envied wife, the one he comes home to everyday " " The one he beats up whenever he wants " Bella says, she doesn't feel sad now, but there was hatred growing steadily in her heart. " It's alright " The Nurse told her. She went to tgw bathroom to retrieve the first aid kit she had left there, when she returned, Bella had passed out from the pain. She shook her head in Pity and remorse, if only she didn't need this job to sustain herself, she might have helped Bella escape this abusive relationship. Slowly, she cleaned and bandaged Bella's wounds * * * Bella woke up in pain. She groggily looked around her and found a strange woman sitting beside her. " Good morning Mrs Mcoy " " Morning. W..Who are you?" " I am Molly, the personal Nurse assigned to you by your husband. You fell down the stairs yesterday and hit your head. Unfortunalesly, Mr Mcoy had a lot of work to do so he couldn't be here " " He's always working " Bella said, feeling solemn that Vaughn would choose to work rather than be by her side when she was tired. The Nurse gave her a strange look, she hesitated before asking. " Have you...ever considered leaving him?" " What? Why would I want to do that?" Bella was taken aback by the question. Vaughn was her life, she'd loved him since they were teens, he had given her no reason to want to leave him. " I love him, I've never considered a divorce before " " Maybe you should" Bella heard the woman mumble, when she asked her what she meant by that, Molly gave an excuse and hurried out of the room to prepare her breakfast. Bella thought there was something strange about the Nurse. She wouldn't have simply asked her to get a divorce if there wasn't some motive behind it. Was she one of the multiple women who wanted Vaughn? But she didn't seem in anyway malicious towards Bella, it seemed more that she was concerned about her. Whatever. She searched for her phone and found it on the cabinet. She was surprised to see the crack on the screen; when had she dropped it? Bella reached for it but clumsily knocked it to the ground. She rolled her eyes at her own silliness and hunched over to pick it up. She noticed the red cover of her personal journal immediately. It was flung under the bed messily. " Why is this here?" She asked herself as she picked it up. Bella was never careless with her journal, because it contained a lot of important dates and events she might be attending. She went through the pages and paused when she came upon the one that contained her messy hand writing. Her body went cold as she read through the sentence scribbled on the page. ' He's An Abuser. He Cheats. Check The Cameras 'He wanted to meet up with her? Bella was more than surprised. Could it be that he hadn’t seen the photos? Or maybe he simply didn’t care? She had assumed the events of the previous night were nothing but a drunken mess — something no respectable person would want to be caught up in.Who would have thought the man still wanted to meet her?But… did she want to see him again? He was handsome, but that was all she remembered. Besides, she was certain the media would be on her tail, waiting for her to mess up so they could publish it for the world to see.“I’m an adult though.” If even Isaac — who was usually so strict — thought she was overreacting, then maybe she shouldn’t take everything so seriously. The only reason those photos were trending was because of her association with Vaughn, a celebrity. It wasn’t because her actions were scandalous or out of the ordinary. She had been in a club. There were definitely people doing far worse things, like banging in the restrooms.And if she
Bella woke up with a headache the next morning. Thankfully, the butler had brought her some homemade remedy to help ease it. As she stared at her disheveled reflection in the bathroom mirror, she swore she would never drink again.It took almost an hour before she managed to make herself somewhat presentable. When she finally went downstairs for breakfast, she realized everyone else hadn’t gone to work today. It was already almost 10 a.m. How had no one else eaten yet? Did they wait for her so they could all eat together? Either way, she was too hungry to question it.As Bella ate, she noticed the looks. Isaac and Ethan were trying—and failing—to be subtle about it, glancing at her from behind their phones or newspapers. Silas, on the other hand, glared openly. He wasn’t even hiding it.“What’s wrong?” she asked.“Did you check your phone this morning?”“No.” She’d been afraid her head might explode from the hangover; checking her phone was the last thing on her mind. “Why? Did someth
“What’s all this about?” Tracy looked between Silas and Felix, who was still holding a clearly drunk Bella. She had been dancing with Edwin at one point when he suddenly left her. She’d followed him in confusion, only to stumble into this scene.“You!” Silas snatched his drunk sister from the stranger’s arms. Felix could see the resemblance between them, so he didn’t doubt they were siblings. It was just a bit awkward being glared at by a teenager. “What were you planning to do to her?!”“I was going to take her somewhere to catch a movie.”“Do you think I’m an idiot? Look how wasted she is.” To prove his point, he shook his sister like a rag doll, and she didn’t even protest. “Does it look like she can watch a movie like this?! I swear, you have no fucking idea who you’re messing with.”“Calm down, kid. We didn’t know she would drink this much.” Tracy felt bad for not paying attention to her friend. Though she thought the blond stranger Bella had almost left with was handsome and dec
Bella was brimming with excitement. This would be her first real club outing—an actual club this time, not the pricey ones reserved only for the rich. The people there would be normal. She could drink and dance to her heart’s satisfaction without the usual bodyguards or Vaughn monitoring her every movement. So yes, Bella was very excited.She didn’t know what outfit to pick. She’d gone through her dresses, but each one felt far too formal and made her stand out too much. She also couldn’t wear jeans, could she? That would be too casual.“Ah, decisions.” She mulled over it and finally settled on a leather skirt and matching crop top. It showed a lot of skin—more than she was usually comfortable with. But whatever. This was her day; she would do whatever she wanted. She matched her outfit with thigh-high leather Dior boots. After styling her hair and applying a bit of makeup, Bella found that she had never felt hotter.“Look at that body.” Her ass ate! And her boobs? She jumped and watc
Bella met up with Tracy the next day, and some of her bitterness spilled over. She was certain she was good at hiding her emotions, but maybe it was just the people around her who were nonchalant about it.“It’s not like she’s a bad person. I just feel like… she reminds me a lot of someone I know.” And no, it wasn’t just the blond hair and pretty eyes either. Lucille reminded her of Jessica — the same ambitious gleam that came over her sister’s eyes whenever she spoke about certain things had been picked up by Lucille as well.With Jessica, it had been with Vaughn. Bella honestly didn’t know how she had been ignorant of the cheating when it had been right in her face. With Lucille it was different… or not so different. She gave off a mean-girl kind of vibe which made Bella uncomfortable. And the fact that she had laughed at the trashy things her friends had said, even while being aware of Bella’s own unfortunate marital past, was just plain rude.There were certain circles of people t
As the crowd around the couple slowly dissipated, Bella felt even more uncomfortable. For a woman who was born into an elite society, Lucille sure wasn’t shy about showing her affection. Vaughn had always been the one to initiate intimacy whenever they were out in public. It was always a kiss, a hug, or hand-holding—nothing too extreme, since the public eye was always on them.She admired Lucille somewhat for her boldness, even if the man she was being affectionate with didn’t reciprocate. It was in Isaac’s nature to be nonchalant about things. He remained passive even as his fiancée kissed and hugged him, telling him how much she’d missed him. Bella took that as her cue to get the hell out of there before things escalated. Unfortunately for her, Isaac took notice of her retreating.“Come here,” he said, making her stop in her tracks. Lucille’s attention was quickly drawn to the woman who had captured Isaac’s focus.“I don’t want to interrupt. I can just go over there and get somethin
