A Night with Her Cruel Mate novel Chapter 11

After leaving the villa that had been her home for the past three years, Julia did not speak much on the way to Consuela's house.

On her arrival, Consuela looked at the absent-minded Julia and coaxed, "You should take a shower first. I'll make breakfast for you."

Julia nodded and retreated to her room. She couldn't help rubbing her body hard at the thought of Terence's violent look just now.

She wanted to wash away his smell. She wanted to scrub her body until she could no longer feel his touch.

What the hell was that?

He hadn't touched her once after they got married. But he had craved and had sex with her repeatedly soon after their divorce.

Julia forced all thoughts of Terence out of her mind. She took a warm shower, changed into comfortable pajamas and felt relieved at once. When she came out feeling fresh, Consuela had already prepared breakfast. There were two fried eggs, two glasses of milk, and some toast laid out on the table.

It smelled delicious and Julia enjoyed them more than she ever had.

"Are you done?" Consuela asked as Julia downed the last of her milk. The former placed her glass on the table and gave Julia a stern look.

Julia raised her head and stared at Consuela. Her chubby face was full of seriousness. Behind her thick glasses, Consuela's eyes were particularly frightening.

"Don't look at me like that." Julia lowered her head. She had always been open to Consuela about her relationship with Terence. But this time, she didn't know why she was keeping things from her.

Julia was afraid that Consuela might think less of her.

She felt ashamed at the fact that she was the one always approaching Terence.

With a guilty conscience, Julia said, "I didn't want to get involved with him. I drank too much last night and ran into him. I didn't expect..." She trailed off when she saw that Consuela was still giving her a hard look.

She smiled bitterly and continued, "Don't worry, I will not be seeing Terence anymore. Please don't be angry with me."

They were divorced now, they had no reason to meet anymore.

"Julia, you know I wasn't mad at you because of this." Consuela shook her head and let out a sigh. Although she was only Julia's broker, Consuela treated her like a sister. "I told you that Terence wasn't your Mr. Right, but you didn't listen to me. Now—"

"I know I was wrong," Julia interrupted. Though she was smiling, there was a hint of sadness in her eyes. "I'm sad. Stop nagging me."

Consuela sighed and said, "If you had cared for my advice, you wouldn't end up like this."

Sighing again, she put her hand in her pocket and drew out a box of morning-after pills. She flung it in Julia's direction and said, "It has already happened. Just take the pills and don't think too much. You are already divorced and now you need to think about your future."

Julia hadn't considered if she would get pregnant, but Consuela had thought of everything. As Julia showered, she had gone out and bought those pills.

Staring at the pills on the table, Julia had a faint guess what they were for. But she was having trouble believing it. "Are these...?" she began, unable to complete her question.
