BXBX NOVEL Chapter 265 - Devil For A Husband
Michelle stood for a while staring at the front page intently, finally mustering up courage she walked to the closest couch and sat down. Carefully, she opened the first page;\'
The first page was dated five years ago_
\'Today was great, got my first acting job, I\'m so happy!
She swiped through the pages slowly, reading every detail and trying to hold back the tears threatening to fall from her eyes.
She read each page until she stopped at a page with red ink;
Michelle\'s heart skipped a beat as her eyes fell on the words;
\'He raped me … I wish I never went there… God, I feel so dirty… I don\'t know who to talk to… he\'s the devil… I\'m so broken…\'
Michelle breathed out heavily as her eyes read through the lines quickly; Mia didn\'t say the name of the person, so she quickly swiped to the next page;
\'How could he do this? He recorded me while raping me and now he\'s threatening to expose it if I don\'t sleep with him… what do I do? … I can\'t talk to anyone… he\'ll kill me…\'
Michelle\'s hands went over her mouth as she read the lines, she couldn\'t even believe what she was seeing; she couldn\'t believe that her sister went through all these alone but was always with a smile as though she was fine.
Michelle tried to breathe but her heart hurt too much; she turned to the next page painfully;
…I thought it was just going to be once, but now he doesn\'t want to let me go… I wish I can talk to someone about this… this is so fucked up… I hate myself…
…I told him I can\'t do this anymore, I think he\'s going to come after me… I don\'t want to die… I don\'t want to die… D
My sister doesn\'t know she is living with the devil, I wish I can tell her that man she calls a husband raped me… he has no soul…
I\'m hiding this in case something happens to me, I don\'t know how long it will take but whenever you find this, please make sure he doesn\'t go free…
No matter how she wanted to deny it now, those lines told her that the person, who killed her sister, was the man she called her husband. Michelle closed the diary weakly and covered her face with her both hands, weeping profusely. What did she do so wrong?
She just married the wrong person that was the only wrong she did, why would she be tormented this way? How could her husband rape her sister and kill her and still had the guts to sleep on the same bed with her and even console her while she wept? What part of hell did he come out of!!
Michelle couldn\'t even believe herself. She knew Douglas was wicked but she never knew the extent of his wickedness.
Her parents watched her quietly as she cried and cried. They couldn\'t say a word because they were the ones who forced her into an arranged marriage with Douglas, so it was their fault. They had ruined their two daughters with their own hands.
Michelle didn\'t know how long she wept but when tears could not leave her eyes anymore, she staggered up from the couch and turned to the door;
\'\'What are you going to do? \'\' her father asked when he saw that she had turned to leave. Michelle stopped for a second;
\'\' don\'t tell the police, I\'ll handle it myself,\'\' she said and walked away.
This pain in her heart would never go away if Douglas was still breathing, and she was sure, he had connections with the police and if the case is taken to court, he may likely go free for want of evidence. No, she would not let him go free for this. He was a beast and she would show him how beasts are being dealt with. She would torture him with her own hands and watch him struggle for air till he breathed his last. That was the only death befitting for someone as wicked and heartless as him.
…
\'\'Mom, I don\'t think we should be rejoicing yet,\'\' Liam said as they walked into their house, Michael was nowhere to be found ever since Nicklaus went missing and Tiana was happily giving the company over to her husband\'s killer. Even though he wanted to feel happy that he would soon be accepted into the family, he could not bring himself to.
Catherine didn\'t reply, she just walked to her room and Liam followed her;
\'\'I\'m very worried about Michael\'s disappearance, how could he disappear all of a sudden, just when we should have killed him. \'\' One thing Liam wasn\'t comfortable about is the fact that Michael was still breathing somewhere on the surface of the earth, they\'ve tried to find him, but they couldn\'t.
\'\'You should be more concerned about the look on that girl\'s face when she looks at you, she knows about what happened 18 years ago but why she is keeping quiet is beyond me. \'\'
Catherine said sitting down on a couch and taking out her shoes;
\'\'Maybe because she has no proof, I mean even Nicklaus had no proof, so no matter what she says, no-one would believe her. \'\'
Catherine sighed; she wanted to believe what her son said but there was something with the way Tiana looked at them that just didn\'t sit right with her.
\'\'I wish we had killed that fool when we had the chance; \'\' Liam breathed; he remembered all the times they had eaten together on the same table, he wished he had poisoned him one of the days, had he known that he would go into hiding now.
\'\' don\'t worry about him, I\'m sure he knows about you that\'s why he\'s hiding so he doesn\'t get killed, he can\'t do anything, you should be more worried about how to get your inheritance from Douglas, get me a cup of water, I\'m already having a headache from overthinking. \'\'
Catherine watched Liam walk away and she slumped back on the couch. Deep down, she regretted why she didn\'t kill Michael when she had the chance. Even if he is in hiding now, she was his son, and he had an inheritance in the company, whether she liked it or not. Catherine fisted her hands angrily; she didn\'t like making mistakes, but this was the biggest mistake she had ever made.
