"So you mean?" Lemuel changed his posture on the sofa and rested his arms on it lazily. Then he raised his jaw, looking sexy, "I raped you?"
Before her pale lips uttered, he continued lazily in a mocking tone again, "Are you still dreaming?"
Obviously, Lemuel had already forgotten what happened last night when he was drunk. Exactly speaking, he had wiped off that part of memory.
"It's you who is still dreaming!" Verena was so mad at his words that she kept trembling all over. She just wanted to slap him hard.
"Louis failed to suffice you last night, right? That was why you were so eager to sleep with me?" Lemuel then continued, looking horribly cold, "A slut like you really makes me sick!"
The scene that she flirted with Louis and her coquettish talk with him both popped out in his mind.
Verena finally lost control because of burning rage. Her chest kept heaving and then she slapped on his face hard.
As her slap sounded loud, the room fell into dead silence again.
He suddenly squinted and stood up to stare at her from above, who still wrapped herself with quilt. Then his dreadful voice sounded, "How dare you hit me?"
Verena raised her head to glare at him while gritting. She didn't seem to be frightened at this moment.
Lemuel pinched her jaw hard and forced her face to get closer to his. They were getting so close that she could even see the burning anger in his eyes.
"You should feel lucky for being a woman!"
Verena frowned and deemed it ridiculous, "Thanks for you goddamn mercy! Thanks for raping me and torturing me! Thanks for leaving me in the hotel alone to be violated by that disgusting asshole!"
"What a glib tone!"
However, he suddenly squinted and looked into her mad eyes, "Didn't you want to hook up with Louis? Stop pretending to be lofty now!"
"Don't ever humiliate me again! I will never hook up with him unless I am insane!" Verena shouted at him loud, "You only deem me a slut who sleeps with whoever man I meet, right? I am not that abject! And you have no right to insult me!"
She was actually the only victim. She hated him for humiliating her in such a seemingly justified tone. He had no right to insult her! And she didn't want to just put up with it without fighting back!
Her eyes were blurred with tears while she kept clenching her fists.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door. Then Cole's voice sounded from outside, "Lemuel, are you awake? I am coming in!"
When hearing that, Verena got stiff on spot.
However, Lemuel still looked emotionless and kept silent.
"Say something!" Verena shouted at him anxiously.
"It would be better if he comes in, right?" Lemuel said coldly, "Do you think he will deem that it's I who raped you? Or it's you who tried to seduce me with plot?"
"What a freak!" Verena kept shouting at him crazily.
She had never encountered such an unreasonable one. He even completely forgot what he had done after he was drunk! And he still deemed himself doing nothing wrong!
"Besides, do you think you can still stay here if he sees you staying in my room nakedly?" Lemuel sneered mockingly again.
"You!"
