He Didn’t Kidnap Me. Not Exactly novel Chapter 259

Chapter 259

Terror finally hit Cecilia full force.

She couldn’t go back to the countryside; her father would kill them both. She wanted to study, get a good job, and take care of her mother.

She knelt and began massaging Catherine’s feet. But she had never done it before, nor did she know how.

The ache in her chest pulsed painfully, and fear overcame her. She clenched her jaw in a desperate attempt to stop crying, yet the tears kept spilling, some falling onto Catherine’s feet.

Without warning, Catherine kicked her hard–right on the burned skin.

Cecilia cried out in pain.

“Your filthy tears got on my foot!” Catherine shrieked. “You little hussy! You and your mom are both worthless!”

Cecilia curled on the floor, clutching her chest, too afraid to make another sound.

“Stop pretending and get back over here!” Catherine shouted.

Just as Cecilia tried to stand, the front door opened. Nancy had returned, and the scene in the room struck her dumb.

Afraid her mother would worry, Cecilia quickly got up and forced a smile. “Mom.”

“What happened, Cecilia?” Nancy asked with concern.

She had never thought highly of Catherine, but with Rebecca gone, she couldn’t overstep the mark and confront that woman.
