All Chapters of His Betrayal, My Redemption: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

DAHLIA “Dahlia, please wake up. I'm sorry for shaking you that way,” The sound of someone sobbing made my eyes flutter open. The first person that came into view was Anita, holding onto my hand and crying terribly. “What are you doing?” I mumbled, pulling my hand away from her hold. “You're finally awake,” she said upon looking at me and then she began to cry even more loudly. “I thought I lost you, Dahlia. I'm sorry for telling you those things and making you pass out,” she kept crying. “Hey, hey. I'm fine.” I tried to pacify her, but heck she just kept crying and blaming herself. In the end, I gave up and let her do her thing. “How long was I unconscious?” I asked when she finally stopped being dramatic. “Three hours, the doctor said you're stressed and starving and it's bad for your pregnancy….” “I swear Dahlia. I didn't know you're pregnant. I wouldn't have stressed you out and made you pass out if I had known. I'm so sorry,” she began crying yet again. I sighed. I never

Chapter 13 DAHLIA I was in pain. My head was banging, my body was aching. It felt as if my entire body was on fire. I tried to open my eyes but the pain in my head got even worse. I groaned, holding onto my head. I tried opening my eyes again, this time I was successful but my vision was blurry. “What the heck did you do to my daughter?!” A voice I haven't heard for years suddenly sounded. It seemed distant, but close at the same time. I rubbed my hands on my eyes and gazed in the direction of the voice, like I suspected. It was my mother and she had her back turned on me. “How dare you put Dahlia in that condition. She never did anything wrong to you! I did everything you asked. I kept her out of your way, how could you do this to her!!” She yelled. I couldn't see the figure she was speaking to, but the moment he spoke, I recognized his voice. It was my father. “It couldn't be helped, Roselle wanted the company and Dahlia's husband too. I had to get them for her,” my dad stated

Chapter 15 DAHLIA “I did,” Ronan Knight casually said, he leaned on the wall and had his hands inside his pocket. “Excuse me?” I looked at him like he had lost his mind. “That explains why he got to you first,” Anita exclaimed. “What are you even doing here?” I turned and casted Anita a glance. Yes, she might have told me about how I was being used by Desmond and his family, but that doesn't mean she isn't part of it. I didn't trust her and definitely didn't feel comfortable with her around me. Her constant drama and cries made me even more wary of her. In fact, it wasn't just about her, I don't think I'll ever be able to trust anyone aside from myself. “Dahlia, I….I'm on your side,” Anita reached for my hand. This time, I shifted backwards, avoiding making any contact with her. “Leave,” I spoke up. “Dahlia….” She called out. “I do not want to repeat myself again, leave Anita….Every single one of you hurt me badly. You all took the one thing I want so dearly away fr

Chapter 17 DAHLIA “You bitch!” Desmond fisted his palm, glaring at me. But then, I kept crying even loudly. Every action displayed by him was recorded by the press and filled me with a sense of satisfaction. Soon, I was rushed back into the hospital to get my wound treated. Once everyone cleared to let the doctor do his job, I stopped screaming and silently watched him treat the rather small wound. “I can't believe you did this!” Anita rushed into the room, glaring at me. “What's with you, acting like my mum. I already told you to leave me alone, didn't I?” I glared at her. “I'm going to get Mr. Knight. You're being very unreasonable right now,” Anita retorted and with that, she walked out. I scoffed, looking down at the wound on my arm. Stabbing myself was a last minute decision, honestly. After getting my medical files from my doctor earlier, I had sneaked into the bathroom, just to injure myself a bit. I mean Desmond painted me to be the bad one and the abuser, so what ot

Chapter 19 DAHLIA “Let's go in,” he gestured for me to return back to his side. I clenched my fist, this was all Desmond's fault, if not for his stupidity, I would have been in the comfort of my home and not here with a man I know nothing about his intentions for me. I dragged my foot back to where he stood. “Let me borrow some money from you. I'll pay back later,” I looked up at him. He didn't utter a word and simply walked away. I stood watching him leave, but then he turned around. “Aren't you coming?” He raised an eyebrow. I rolled my eyes and dragged myself over to him. We never uttered a word to each other and simply approached the huge manor. My face held no emotions, but deep down I was grateful to him. Even though I didn't know what he wanted from me, I was still thankful that he showed up for me when everyone else didn't. If not for him, I would be on the streets rights now. The moment we got to the entrance, two grand doors were pushed open. What welcomed me was
