The doctor advised me to report it to the police. It was Nora who sent those men. But who would believe me when the daughter of the Peyer family was involved?
I shook my head, and just then, Aaron arrived, still wearing his wrinkled shirt from the night before.
His eyes were bloodshot, but maybe it wasn't love that kept him up anymore.
As I looked at him now, I felt nothing.
He was filthy, but it had nothing to do with me anymore.
Still, he just stared at me, his eyes filled with hate.
"Amanda, last night, you would rather bash your head in than come to me?!"
His voice trembled with rage, as though he hated me to the core.
He was questioning me, but that was the excuse Nora had prepared for me.
Should I argue back?
"Aaron, I came, but Nora locked me up elsewhere. Do you believe me?"
Aaron suddenly laughed, but his eyes were filled with a bloodthirsty fury.
"Amanda, you're lying to me. The tracker at the house was cut off by you, and you even dug it out of your wrist. Do you... want so badly to give me away to someone else?"
Aaron kissed me fiercely. I struggled hard, and blood began to seep through the gauze.
