A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 544

He didn't know how long it had been, and then he stared at Esther and found her head tilted, while her dark, glossy hair cascaded over her face. Her snow-white body was covered with kiss marks from his indulgent lovemaking. And her back, once again, was oozing with blood.

His eyes darkened and his heart ached.

He tenderly lifted his hand and brushed the dark hair away from Esther's face, finding that she had already burst into tears.

Elijah didn't say anything. He leaned down, kissed her cheek, and finally softened his voice and said, "Good girl, it hurts, doesn't it?"

He reached up and gently stroked her body. But as soon as he touched her body, she subconsciously shrank back. She didn't want him to touch her again!

Elijah hurriedly took a deep breath and pretended to ignore Esther's sad, resentful eyes. He looked at her and realized she was hurt!

She thought she would punch and kick at him and she would fight to the death, but she didn't move. She stared blankly at the ceiling, and her pale, thin face was lifeless. She didn't try to cover her naked body as if it didn't matter to her at the moment.

Elijah stood up, went to the bathroom, took a shower, and changed his clothes. Then he came back and helped her clean her body and change her medication. When all was done, he climbed into the bed and hugged her tightly.

She did not struggle and let him hold her thin body. Perhaps he was too violent when he made love to her just now, which exhausted all her strength.

At the moment, she was like a lifeless, worn-out porcelain doll. She closed her eyes, not wanting to hear anything or see anything.

"Why did you offer to have sex with him?" His voice was low and painful. He admitted that he had just lost control. And he lost control frequently as soon as he met her.

He tried to explain something more, but heard her choked but cold voice, "Elijah, kill me! Please, kill me…"

He frowned, "Damn it!"

She actually wanted to die. The anger he'd managed to suppress rose again. "You want to die?"

"I don't want to see you! I hate you!" She whimpered. She hated him for treating her like this. She hurt so much. Her whole body hurt, and her heart hurt even more.

"Why did you let him kiss you?" Elijah had calmed down. He took her small hand and held it in his palm. He didn't hold it tightly, but also didn't allow her to break free, "Why did you offer to have sex with him?"

"I love him. I just love him!" She cried and shouted. "It's him I love!"

He felt anger burning in his heart. He kissed her fiercely on the lips, wanting only to wash away the scent on her lips that belonged to another man and the smell of another man on her.

She was in love with Hudson and cried so hard. She pushed him away violently, "No, I hate you!"

He was stunned, and a flash of hurt crossed his eyes. He lowered his head to gaze at her. The burning pain that burned into his heart caused his handsome face to twist.

Esther put her small hand against his chest and cried with great sadness. The sorrow spread from her heart and finally affected her long-numbed fingertips.

She curled her trembling hand. Her hand was dry and pale, and no longer had the warmth and heat of being held by Hudson. She once thought the world was a beautiful place, but now it seemed that nobody cherished her in this big world. Hudson wanted to take her away, but he got married. She couldn't be with him anymore.

Her heart ached again. She choked and cried with great sadness. In the silent night, coldness permeated everywhere.

Above her head, she heard the sound of his heavy, mournful breathing.

Esther pushed him away with tears streaming down her face. "I don't want to see you again. Get out..."

Elijah instantly got agitated as she pushed him, but he tried to hold back and said in a deep voice, "Hudson has already got married. Would you rather be a mistress than my woman?"

At that, Esther, who was crying, suddenly stared at him with cold eyes again. Her wet eyes were filled with grievance and resentment, and made him feel sorry for her.

Elijah looked at her and felt hopelessly defeated. He moved closer to her and tried to take her into his arms again.

"Don't you ever touch me again!" She shouted, struggling to turn outward.

"Stop it!" He restrained her, "Esther, don't test my patience. I don't want to be rude again. Just be my woman and I'll pretend that today's incident never happened. Even if you did sleep with Hudson, I can pretend that nothing happened!"

His words overturned the pent-up anger and injustice in Esther's heart. She cried out, "Damn it, I'm not your woman, and I hate you!"

"Esther!" Elijah yelled, "You pissed me off!"

Esther's tears fell and dripped onto Elijah's fingertips. Elijah rubbed at her face, wiping away the tears, then lifted her chin.

Esther turned her head and tried in vain to free herself from his fingers. She could only open her mouth and ask in a cold voice. "Do you only want my body? I can offer to have sex with you too. Whatever you want!"

Hearing her say that and hearing her belittle herself like that, he let go of his hand, but still didn't take his eyes off her face. He just gently covered her heart with his hand without warning, where her vibrant heartbeat was.

But he frowned, then said in a deep voice, "If I want a woman's body, then I can find one anywhere!"

After saying this sentence, he got out of bed and left her room, leaving Esther alone in this cold room crying in aggression.

At Hudson's villa.
