Second Marriage to Mr. Rich (Ned Fletcher) novel Chapter 31

Chapter 31

Angeline was awakened by the sound of water running in the bathroom.

The blackout curtains in the hotel obscured the light, making It Impossible to distinguish whether it was day

or night.

Feeling a splitting headache, she instinctively wanted to press her temples, but her arms were so sore that she couldn’t lift them.

Not just her arms, but her whole body ached terribly, especially near her pubic area.

Sean!

A thunderous explosion echoed in her mind.

She sat up abruptly. Her blood turned cold.

Clutching the duvet tightly against her chest, Angeline gazed at the down jacket that was still damp on the floor. Other than the down jacket, a shirt, trousers, sweater, and her jeans were scattered on the floor. The scenes from the night before played in her mind like a movie.

She wondered what she had done.

Angeline’s face was drained of color.

Sean was the adoptive son of the Lawson family, her biological mother’s brother in name.

She didn’t want anything to do with the Lawson family again, yet she ended up sleeping with the Lawson family’s adoptive son under the influence of drugs.

The night before, she was somewhat conscious. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to call out Sean’s

name.

Tortured by the effects of the drugs, she had lost consciousness and was in agony. She had kissed Sean uncontrollably, grasping him and pleading with him.

Angeline covered her face with both hands. When her palms touched her swollen and numb’lips, the pain caused her to shudder. Trembling, she got out of bed and picked up her undried clothes.

She couldn’t wear the wet clothes in the middle of winter, so she wrapped herself in a bathrobe from the hotel

closet. Just then, she saw several shopping bags on the couch, three of which were for women.

Next to the couch was a box for women’s shoes with her size written on it.
