Love in Prime Years

Chapter 41Torture Made Her Desperate

Amelia showed herself a wry smile, as Lawrence choked her again.

Amelia closed her eyes wearily, and then opened slowly. She really didn’t have the strength to deal with

Lawrence. She even did not want to have a meal now. She just wanted to take Leigh back and have a

good sleep on the bed.

“Answer me!” Lawrence’s eyes were scarlet like a flesh-eating beast, as if he would swallow Amelia

alive if she could not give him a satisfactory answer.

“Amelia, the bastard is the son of Jimmy or Arthur?”

Lawrence’s hands trembled because of great anger. The popped veins on his hands made him look

even more violent and brutal.

Lawrence believed that Leigh was the son of Jimmy before. But tonight he heard Arthur say Leigh was

Arthur’s son. Thinking of the similar face of Leigh and Arthur, Lawrence was not sure who the father of

Leigh was.

Thinking that Amelia not only hooked up with Jimmy, but also Arthur and even other men four years

ago, Lawrence was so angry that he almost wanted to tear Amelia into pieces.

Jimmy? Arthur? Amelia felt it was so ironic and ridiculous for Lawrence to ask such a question. He

believed that Leigh was the son of others’ but not his.

How ridiculous it was!

“Mr Dominic, since you don’t even know Leigh, it has nothing to do with you who his father is!”

The indifference of Amelia annoyed Lawrence so much.

He clenched his hands, “Amelia, the bastard looks Arthur. Is he the son of Arthur?”

It really hurt when Amelia was choked by Lawrence for the first time. But she was numb now because

of the frequent pain.

Even though she was strangled by him so hard and she could not even make a sound, Amelia did not

feel the pain.

Amelia was so tired that she didn’t even bother to move. In fact, she did not know why Leigh looked so

much like Arthur. Maybe it was fate or it was just a coincidence.

But Amelia didn’t bother to talk to Lawrence. She just rolled her eyes lazily and said, “Mr Dominic, it’s

none of your business!”

“We are divorced, and you have nothing to do with me!”

“Mr Dominic, you always told me not to humiliate myself before, but now I want to say the same words

to you!”

“When I love you, you are everything to me; when I don’t love you, you are nothing to me!”

“Lawrence, I don’t love you anymore. So, you are nothing to me now!”

“Amelia, don’t you dare to say it again!”

Amelia opened her mouth not to suffocate herself. She gasped and wore the same self-deprecating

expression as before.

At this time, even if she was strangled by Lawrence and was embarrassed, she showed a kind of

weary alienation and unbreakable nobility.

“Mr Dominic, I said, you are nothing to me! So, don’t pester me anymore!”

“Let’s say goodbye to each other and lead our own life. Don’t ask for an insult anymore!”

Bang! Lawrence suddenly kicked the door open. Then a man put up his pants trembling and dared not

raise his head, and ran downstairs.

Seeing that there was no one in the restroom, Lawrence dragged Amelia into it by force.

Amelia didn’t want to get in, but she was too weak to resist. By the time she realized what happened,

she had already been pressed on the door.

With a click, Lawrence locked the door from the inside.

"Mr Dominic, let me out!"

Being imprisoned in such a place, Amelia felt extremely uneasy. She tried to open the door of the

restroom, but before she succeeded, Lawrence had already grabbed her wrist tightly. It hurt so much

that she couldn't move a little.

Amelia stooped up subconsciously to relieve the pain in her body, but it didn’t work. Moreover, she did

not know what was wrong with her body. She just took several painkillers, but she had a stomach-ache

again.

The pain brought out cold sweat on her forehead. It hurt so much that she began to lose her

consciousness.

She just murmured, “Mr Dominic, please... let me out, I... I want to go for...”

Leigh was still in the chamber, so Amelia wanted to go for him. But before she finished her words, she

felt a pain from her stomach, and she was so uncomfortable that she could not even breathe.

Lawrence thought Amelia wanted to go for Arthur, so he was even angrier.

He pressed her shoulder rudely, “Amelia, you can’t expect to go for Arthur!”

As he spoke, he bowed his head and bit Amelia’s lips violently. Having known Lawrence for so long

time, Amelia was clear what he would do next. She struggled with all her strength not to let him

succeed.

Every time Lawrence tortured her, her clothes would not be clean and tidy. If he really had sex with her

here, leaving her embarrassed, how could she face Leigh?

She didn’t want Leigh, the one she loved most, to look down on her and think she was dirty.

“Mr Dominic, let me go!”

Thinking of something, Amelia said in a hurry, “Mr Dominic, we were divorced! You can’t do this to me!”

“Well, we are divorced. We have been divorced...”

Lawrence frowned. Actually, it was he who proposed the divorce. But the word divorce from Amelia’s

mouth sounded harsh to him.

Holding the inexplicable fidget back, Lawrence said with strong disdain and ruthlessness, “You are just

a bitch. It’s a deal between us. Do we need a marriage certificate?”

Then he took out a large pile of money from his wallet and hit Amelia hard on her face, “It’s two

thousand Dollars. More than you deserve!”

The banknotes were scattered all over the floor. Amelia was stiff, and she glanced blankly over the

bills.

She felt that the bills were sharp knives with blood, which was stabbing her cruelly. She felt great pain

in her heart, dripping with blood.

The great pain overwhelmed Amelia again. She looked numbly at the spotless white door in front of

her, and then there was not more expression on her face suddenly.

She did not cry or smile, just as dismal as a walking dead.

Lawrence treated her like this in public, which deprived her of the last dignity to be a human being.

“Amelia!” When Amelia heard the anxious cry of Arthur outside, her eyes were even more empty and

blank.

What if Arthur saw Lawrence doing this to her in the men’s room...

And what if Arthur came here with Leigh...

“Amelia!” There was a pressing knock on the door. Amelia closed her eyes hopelessly and desperately. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

At that moment, she felt as if she was dead.
