Ex-Husband Who Has Gone Mad After Abusing His Wife

Chapter 27

I suddenly realized Chris had forgotten to prescribe medicine to me.

The car belonged to Liam, and the driver was his employee. I could not go to

another hospital.

I leaned on the door and closed my eyes. The dizziness accompanied me

into my dreams.

In my dreams, Liam appeared in front of me.

His eyes were half-closed as he gently placed an ice pack on my cheek.

His eyes were beautiful. They brimmed with authority whenever he was

angry. When he gazed at me like that, they seemed gentle and reserved.

The dim yellow light of the room enveloped his body. He was like a scene

from an old photograph.

That was when I knew I was dreaming.

His embrace was warm, and his body smelled faintly of cologne and

tobacco. If I paid attention, I could smell his unique body scent too.

I guess I’m a dog. Only a dog would remember scents, and only a dog would

be so loyal to their master even after being abused.

I covered my face to hide away from him. “You should go…”

My chest ached, and tears poured from my eyes. I did not hold back.

I did not have to hold back when crying in my dreams.

After all, I was alone and always had been.

I took a deep breath and allowed my tears to wet my hair and palms.

I did not want to admit it, but I was hoping… he would call me out on my lie.

I wanted to see his reaction upon realizing my cancer was real, and I wanted

him to regret treating me like this.

Never mind. I should not have to stoop myself.

“Stop appearing,” I mumbled. I was not only talking to the meaningless

hallucination in front of me but to my mind creating these meaningless

hallucinations. “Stop appearing. It hurts…”

Stop appearing and let me sleep.

I only had half a year left. That was less than two hundred days.

Every day was precious to me.

I cried until my tears ran dry and calmed down after my emotions were

released.

I removed my hands from my face, and I could sense light through my

eyelids.

I opened my eyes… and saw a familiar face. Those judgmental eyes were

sharp and piercing like an unsheathed blade.

I was dumbfounded, and I held my breath while staring at that pallid face.

A long while later, Liam began to speak. “So it’s him.”

Each of his words was chillingly cold. I did not know what he was referring to,

but I felt fear.

“I was wondering why your behavior changed. Is that why you suddenly want

a divorce, hmm? And you don’t mind not taking anything with you?” He said

while he grabbed my lower jaw and glared at me. “How long have you been

with him?”

My mouth could not move. He was gripping hard where he slapped me

earlier.

“So you’re not speaking,” Liam grunted, let go of me, and stood up. I thought

he was behaving like a lunatic.

My scalp suddenly felt numb. I wanted to run away, but there was a sharp

pain on my scalp.

Liam grabbed my hair and dragged me on the floor.

I tried to struggle, but I was not as strong as he was. He dragged me into the

bathroom and tossed me into the bathtub.

I fell into the deep bathtub and choked on water. After that, he grabbed me

by my hair and dragged me out again.

I coughed hard. My lungs felt like they were on fire, and my vision was blurred

by water. Liam’s cold voice rang next to my ears again. “I’ll ask you one more

time. How long have you been with him?”

I coughed for a long time to clear my lungs. “I don’t know what you’re talking

about…”

Before I could finish, my head was plunged into the water again.

Twenty seconds later, he pulled my head up.

“Tell me the truth if you don’t want to die.” He spoke very slowly this time,

“How… long… have… you… been… with… him?”

I gasped and wiped the water from my face.

His expression was frigid, and veins bulged on his forehead. The harsh white

lighting of the bathroom made him look like a devil from hell.

Instead of fear, I felt so distant from him.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I said. I was not completely in the

dark. He said something about a doctor earlier, so he might be talking about

Chris. That was incredibly absurd.

“Just drown me,” I said.

Liam did not say anything.

He continued to glare at me like a serial killer. I could see that his left hand

was clenched tightly into a fist.

I kneeled in the water and stared at him in the eye for half a minute, showing

no fear.

What was death to a person who was about to die?

A long time later, Liam let go of my hair and nodded. “Very well, Vivienne.”

He loosened his tie and tossed it aside. “Looks like you have found true love

this time.”

My heart was at my throat. “What do you want?”

“What do I want?” He smirked. “You were the one who begged me to marry

you, and now you’re playing the martyr? It’s too late!”

I wanted to run away, but my position put me at a disadvantage. I managed

to kick my legs twice before being pinned to the side of the bathtub.

I felt dizzy again, and my stomach churned. I could vaguely hear him.

laughing at me and saying, “Has he done this to you before?”

I said nothing, and I had nothing to say.

It was my first time yesterday, and I believed he knew it.

He was only looking for an excuse to torment me. What choice did I have

when I was only prey to him?

He grabbed my hair and lifted my head.

As strands of hair were separated from their roots, tears flowed from my

eyes because of the pain. I could not see his face clearly, but I could hear him

growl, “Vivienne!”

“Who am I?” he asked.

Who is he?

knew the answer he wanted, and I was not going to make myself suffer over

such a trivial question. I averted his gaze and said with a trembling voice,

“Liam Mendez.”

“Very good.” He let go of my hair and grabbed my lower jaw so I had to look

at him. “Who am I to you?”

“Husband…” My eyes were blurred by tears. I did not want to look at his face

anyway. “You’re my husband.”

“I’m surprised you still remember,” he said with a sinister slant to his voice.

“What should you call me then?”

“Go on! Are you mute?” he urged.

I should call him ” Liam darling.”

That was what I used to call him, even though he hated and despised me

I thought those two words sounded cute and intimats. It represented the

bond between us.

I did not want to call him that anymore.
