Marriage Without Love: Sir, Please Stop novel Chapter 63

Chapter 63 Mrs. Shaffer Is Gone

Catalina got the creeps because Bennett was so aggressive.

She felt as if she couldn't breathe.

She even had the urge to spill the beans on impulse at some moments.

She gave up the idea as she glanced up and saw the tie Claire had given him hanging around his neck. She felt hurt and as if her heart had been pierced by a knife.

She straightened up to meet his piercing gaze. "I meant to give the tie to Aaron. Are you satisfied now?"

"What did you just say?"

Bennett's expression became glum. While he managed to keep his cool, his words carried an icy chill.

Catalina's breathing came to a halt at that precise moment.

"I want to give this tie to..."

"Get the hell out!"

Bennett rudely interrupted Catalina before she could finish her sentence.

Catalina couldn't see his expression because the room was dark.

He turned away, his hands clenched into fists.

Bennett eventually walked away without saying anything.

His lonely back faded into the darkness.

He wished he hadn't stayed up so late just to wait for her to return and hear her explanation. His rage was fueled by her apparent disregard for him.

He was enraged because she never paid him any attention and had had her eye on someone else.

Catalina returned to her room and closed her eyes as she leaned against the door. Like a wandering ghost, she lost all of her strength.

Catalina had a nightmare that night.

In her dream, she was transported back in time to the extravagant but ridiculous wedding that had taken place four years before.

The couple was giving a speech under the sacred cross.

Jenny, Catalina's half-sister, stormed the stage and stripped her naked in front of the audience.

Everyone was stunned by that.

Catalina stood nearly naked on the stage. She was horrified to notice that all of the guests were staring at her as if she were a circus performer.

There were hickeys all over her body, left by the man who had taken her virginity the night before.

Catalina's humiliation as she stood on that stage stayed with her forever.

Jenny mockingly pointed at Catalina and said, "Take a look at this slut! Look what she did the night before her wedding with a stranger! These hickeys all over her body are her tramp stamp. Don't let her innocent appearance fool you, people. She is a total whore. She can't marry Warren!"

"Bang!"

Warren collapsed to the floor like a statue when Jenny finished her speech.

He remained unconscious forever, eventually turning into a PVS.

Catalina would never forget what Bennett had done that day. He stormed onto the stage and threw a suit jacket over her body. After that, he picked up Warren, who was unconscious, and ran out the door.

In the midst of the chaos, Catalina heard what Bennett had said to her before he left. "I'll never forgive you if something happens to my brother!"

"Ah!"

Catalina found herself waking up screaming in the middle of the night.

Her pajamas were drenched in a cold sweat.

Catalina covered her face with her hands. She couldn't stop thinking about the moment Warren collapsed and the warning Bennett had given her before leaving.

She was relieved that it had all been a dream.

Catalina checked the time and discovered it was still early morning.

But she was wide awake.

Catalina got out of bed and showered. She then started packing her belongings.

She'd be spending some time in a mountain soon.

She hoped that by doing so, she could take some time away from him and collect her thoughts.

Catalina stuffed the rag doll her mother had given her into the suitcase with her other belongings.

Her heart skipped a beat when she saw a clown doll.
