Chapter fourteen

Emily Grey

The first time I saw my mother in-law, I knew and felt she didn't like me. But I never thought it was up to this extent.

She was being too harsh with me and I couldn't understand why.

I didn't do anything wrong to her.

I just got married to her son yesterday and she's treating me so badly like we've been enemies for decades.

My husband is a cold hearted person, and am now thinking of how am going to stay and deal with this attitude of his.

And now comes my mother in-law too.

When I heard the voice of my husband coming from the door, I felt happy and secure all of a sudden.

This cold man, what good deed can be expected from him? He's only going to support his mom and treat me no less.

This was the only thought circulating in my mind, but what my husband did rather made me lost for words

He didn't say anything to defend me, but he didn't say anything to support the actions of his mother either.

He looked angry and his face was a little twisted by the anger.

He looked like he wanted to say something to defend and support me and condemn whatever his mother was saying, but he couldn't.

Or maybe he just didn't want to.

He only told his mother he was going to talk to me about the issue and strode towards our room with me in his arms.

I couldn't figure out why he suddenly lifted me in his arms but I didn't want him to put me down either. I wanted to see his next action so I kept mute and allowed him to me to our room quietly.

When he finally stood in front of the door of our room, he kicked the door open with his leg and went inside.

He placed me on the bed, stared at my face for a while and got up all of a sudden.

He walked slowly towards the door and touched the doorknob to open it.

'What the hell is wrong with this man?' I questioned myself uneasily.

Did he just feel like lifting me in his arms and bringing me to our room?

That's all?

Wasn't he going to say anything to me?

I stared at his back for quite sometime before pouting slowly " aren't you gonna say anything? "

He still held the doorknob but refused to open the door and leave. He didn't give me any reply to my question either

What was he thinking about? If he wasn't ready to talk to me about the issue between I and his mother, then why did he bring me up here?

I got out of the bed and moved closer to him knowing he wasn't going to say anything.

I placed my hand on his shoulder and said in a whisper tone " please say something "

And with that, he turned to face me and grabbed my waist tightly.

He turned me over and pushed me up against the wall. He wrapped my legs around his waist and stared at me fiercely like a lion staring and thinking about how to feast on a prey he has gotten hold of.

His eyes were darkened a little and I could now feel how much angry he was.

But I couldn't tell whether he was just angry with me or angry at what his mother was doing to me.

I was silent all this while, not daring to utter another word after the anger I saw in his eyes.

He was staring at me and so was I. He didn't say anything and so did I.

We were just giving each other stares and didn't even realize when he pressed his lips against mine.

Just like always, he's kiss was fierce. Almost rougher than the ones I've encountered from him.

He bit my lips and I could feel the blood spreading through my tooth.

I didn't resist though I didn't know why he was kissing me so fiercely like that.

In turn, I wrapped my arms around his neck and he still didn't stop. He rather went all the way to my neck and I knew we were surely going to go beyond all boundaries today.

I was so naive to think about something as stupid as that. How could I ever think that things could go beyond what they were now?

Before I could make another move on him, he suddenly stopped the kiss and dropped me.

I fell on the floor roughly and I was shocked to death.

What's wrong with this man now? What on earth does he even want?

First, he'll take the initiative to be in a romantic mood with me, then will suddenly stop and treat me me like hell.

I sat on the floor and looked at him confusedly, waiting for him to explain why he did what he just did.

Being naive again! How could I ever believe that he will explain to me the reasons behind the things he does.

I wasn't wrong about this thought, he just stared at me this time calmly and said while going out of the room " do as you please "

I should do as I please? Will his mother agree to this? Or is he going to tell his mother?

I couldn't understand and believe what he just said to me. Doing as I please means that I can continue working as an intern nurse right?

This was a very happy news for me.

He must surely have his own reasons for telling me to do as I please, but I didn't care about it at all. All I could think of now was the freedom he had given to me.

Now I can continue working as an intern at the hospital, and can also do other things without worrying about my mother in-law.

This was just so great.

I still had to do something about Christian's arrest and now was the perfect time.

Without thinking twice, I strode out of the room and went back downstairs.

I met the maid who looked about being in her late thirties and told her I wish to go out somewhere.

She lead me out and asked one of the drivers to take me to my destination and he responded respectfully.

When I got to the police station, I went straight to the officer in charge and inquired about Christian.

But the officer only told me Christian had been set free already.

'Set free?' I worried.

I remember the words my husband said to the cops who came for Christian yesterday clearly. He said they should only release him when he gives the order.

Did that mean he was the one who asked them to release him?
