Arvin looked at his stubborn wife and aggressively tore apart the silk nightgown that she had just put on. He then said, in a deplorable tone, "Angela, if you continue to be like this, you'll pay for it."
"Arvin, If you dare to touch me tonight, I 'll ... Oh!" He tugged on to her nightgown and said, "What are you going to do about it? Honey, you know I love you very much. Why are you still mad at me? Be nice, okay?"
"Stop that. I won't be fooled by your words anymore. Hmm..." She was pinned facedown on the bed, so Arvin was unable to kiss her. He then forced his hands over her mouth without her consent.
Angela struggled in pain as Arvin had used excessive force to cover her mouth, "Hmm..." Damn it!
Whenever Angela behaved in an unruly manner, Arvin intended to subdue her. At first, she clenched her teeth to endure the pain, but she soon gave into his vicious cruelty and pled for mercy.
It was late at night and they had made the bedroom entrancing.
In the bedroom next door, Lulu had been staring at the message sent by Scott on her mobile phone for a long time.
The message read, 'Lulu, did you say happy birthday to Angela for me?'
She opened and closed the WeChat several times before finally replying with a word, 'Yes.'
But then she deleted it.
Lulu thought, 'Now that he has a girlfriend, I'd better stay away from him.'
Scott, who was in UK, inattentively looked at his clothing designs as his eyes constantly glanced at his phone.
He thought, 'What's the matter with Lulu? She seemed happy to be with him a few days ago. But nowadays, it seems like she wants to distance herself on purpose.'
She once went back to J City for Angela's birthday party without telling him. Later he got it from her Microblog and contacted her.
Lulu had changed a lot. She had always spent time with him talking about her personal matters, in the past.
But now, she was acting a little differently. He had checked their message history on his WeChat, and found that, whatever he would say to her, she would just reply with one or two words.
He thought about it for a minute, and hoped he hadn't done anything wrong to her. 'What the hell's going on?
Is it... because she has a boyfriend now?'
Realising the close possibility of that happening, Scott frowned, 'How can Lulu not tell me about her boyfriend?
It's inexcusable.'
Scott picked up his mobile phone and dialed Lulu's number.
It rang for a while before Lulu answered the phone "Hello, something wrong?"
'Something wrong?' Scott started to feel angry for no apparent reason. He had called her many times before, but she had never answered him like that.
"Yes, why won't you reply to my messages? I mean, if you didn't say 'Happy Birthday' to Angela for me, I'll call her." After realizing his inappropriate behaviour, Scott hastened to justify himself.
"Well, I just saw your message. Take it easy. I did."
Her bluntness had upset Scott.
"Are you seeing Carter now?" Carter was a 'pretty boy' who had pursued Lulu vigorously.
Carter? Lulu tried to remember who he was talking about. Then it came back to her. Carter was her classmate in junior middle school. 'How could I be interested in that fat guy?' Lulu thought to herself. "No, I'm not. What's wrong?"
Scott was relieved to hear that and asked, "Have you been busy lately?"
"No!" How could she be busy with a student's lifestyle?
