Chapter 42
“Shut up.” Anderson’s face was full of fury. He gripped Catherine’s neck and squeezed.
“Anderson Clark, you’ll never be able to learn how to love! Your children will hate you as you’ve hated your father… ahem… ahem…”
The strength on her throat increased. Catherine’s eyes became tearful. However, there was no trace of sadness on her face or eyes, but instead, they were full of the wile smile.
She knew that she had poked at Anderson’s sore spot.
He used to verbally abused her so many times. It was not because that she couldn’t fight back, but that she still loved him back then. Now she didn’t love him anymore and she wouldn’t love him again, so she could poke his sore spot without any sense of guilt. Instead, she felt a sickly sense of revenge.
In the end, Anderson strode out, smashing the door close behind him. Seeing his receding back, Catherine knew what she had won this round. As soon as he left, the woman who was obviously joyful suddenly felt emptiness and boring in her heart.
Catherine got out of the bed. She walked into the bathroom and watched the woman in the mirror. There were black and blue bruises on her fair neck — it was the trace left by him.
Her lips curled up into a sneer.
After Anderson walked out of the room, Catherine didn’t want to stay long in Ziting Villa. She was afraid that if that man went nuts again and forced her to stay. After straightening herself up, she was about to go home.
When she went downstairs, she found that Anderson didn’t go out. Instead, he was sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Without greeting him, Catherine walked straight to the door. At the door, she was stopped by his bodyguards.
With a cold face, one of them said to her like a robot, “Miss Johnson, you can’t leave now.”
Catherine turned around and looked at the man on the sofa. “Anderson Clark, what are you…”
“Andy, here I am!”
Before Catherine could finish her question, a coquettish and enchanting voice rang out from the door. Without turning around, she knew it was Sienna.
When passing by Catherine, Sienna smiled at her provokingly.
With a cold look, Catherine ignored her completely.
Ignored, Sienna felt quite uncomfortable. She couldn’t understand why Catherine could be still so arrogant after she was put in jail and her family was doomed.
However, she didn’t show anything on her face. Instead, she smiled at Catherine and greeted her, “Hi Catherine, you are here, too. Are you here to visit Sophie and Lincoln?”
Knowing that Catherine would ignore her, Sienna added, “Please don’t worry about the children. Andy and I will take good care of them.”
She sounded as if she had become the hostess of Ziting Villa.
Catherine looked at her expression change so hypocritically and felt stomach-turning. She glanced at Sienna with disdain and said calmly, “You should save such words until you’ve married to him. Now you are talking like the hostess. Aren’t you afraid that you’ll get a slap in your face?”
As soon as Catherine finished her words, the tenderness on Sienna’s face faded totally. With a twisted look, she said, “Catherine Johnson, you…”
Before she could finish her words, Anderson’s voice rang out. “Sienna, come over.” Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Sienna’s twisted face changed to have a gentle and complacent smile in an instant. She hurried trotted to Anderson and called him in a sweet tone, “Andy!”
Then she rested her head on Anderson’s shoulder like an obedient woman, looking quite happy and gentle. Catherine’s hands clenched into fists. She knew that the man was revenging her, but she couldn’t help feeling a pain in her heart.
When Sienna put her hand on him, Anderson wanted to wave it away subconsciously. Seeing Catherine standing not far away, he forced him to tolerate it.
“Andy, did you miss me?” Sienna’s coquettish voice echoed in the whole living room and everyone in the living room had heard it.
Anderson felt sickened. He stood up, picked up Sienna, and carried her in his arms. Then he strode upstairs to the second floor. On the stairs, he cast a cold glance at Catherine, who was standing at the door. Then he said to the bodyguard, “Bring her upstairs.”
Catherine’s expression changed.
Sienna rested in Anderson’s arms, poked her head out, and looked over at Catherine, smiling complacently.
The bodyguard at the door said, “Miss Johnson, please go upstairs.”
Catherine stood motionlessly.
The bodyguard continued, “I don’t want to be rude to you. But, Miss John, if you don’t move, I don’t mind use the force.”
Catherine glanced at the bodyguard who was like a robot and only listened to Anderson’s orders. Gritting her teeth, she could only go upstairs.
The bodyguard followed her and watched her when she was standing in front of Anderson’s bedroom door.
Inside the bedroom behind the door, there came fierce noises, the sound of tearing off clothes, ambiguous gasps, and so on… As an adult, Catherine naturally knew what was going on inside the room.
Anderson was humiliating her in such a way.
Catherine felt that her heart was bleeding. She was standing there motionlessly as if her feet were nailed at the spot.
How could he be so ruthless?
Catherine didn’t know how long she had been standing in front of the door. When Anderson wrapped in a towel and pushed the door open, she subconsciously took a step back. She felt numb on her leg — she almost knelt in embarrassment…
Staring at the pale woman at the door, Anderson looked quite mean. “Catherine Johnson, do you understand? Even I don’t love others, there would be countless women loving me.”
Catherine smiled bitterly. “I wish you’re loved by others forever.”
Seeing her expression, Anderson couldn’t tell how he was feeling at this moment. He called Sienna over and acted in such a show just because he wanted to stimulate Catherine. Now she was stimulated, but
how come he couldn’t feel happy at all?
Catherine asked him with a calm face, “Mr. Clark, I’ve enjoyed the free porn movie. May I go back home now?”
Anderson didn’t speak. Catherine took it as he acquiesced. She managed to walk downstairs in difficulty with her numb legs. The bodyguard glanced at Anderson, asking him with his eyes if he should stop her or not.
However, Anderson only gazed at the limping woman who was leaving as if he didn’t receive the question from the bodyguard.
Her receding back was bony and embarrassing, but her back was straight and strong. Seeing her disappearing, suddenly Anderson felt panicked in his heart.
In the past, Catherine had never taken the initiative to leave him. But now, even she was in the same room with him, she couldn’t bear it at all…
After Catherine had gone, Anderson walked into his bedroom with coldness on his face. Looking at the woman sitting on the couch, he said coldly, “Get out.”
Sienna gritted her teeth, looking humiliated. She had never expected that for the first time Anderson called her over just because he wanted to use her to stimulate Catherine. She would be fine if it was just a simple stimulation, but he asked her to groan in that way without doing anything else.
She secretly took off her clothes, but that man just stared at the door coldly as if he hadn’t seen anything.
In Sienna’s life, she had never been humiliated in this way before. She bit her lower lip and looked at Anderson pitifully. Anderson saw her standing motionlessly. He frowned and snapped, “Get out now!”
Sienna walked out of Ziting Villa in embarrassment. She had already blamed the humiliation she received today on Catherine.
Catherine went back home. She felt that her whole body weakened. Collapsing on the bed, she stared at the ceilings with lifeless eyes. What she heard at Anderson’s bedroom door kept reechoing in her mind…
She closed her eyes in pain. When she fell in love with Anderson back then, Catherine could have never thought that her romantic love would turn out to be such a worthless result.
