Pain!
In her sleep, a pair of strong hands choked her neck, cutting off her breath. Emma Thompson struggled to open her eyes, only to find herself staring into a pair of icy black eyes.
Ethan Lee!
"Are you out of your mind? Let me go!" Her face flushed, she fought desperately to pry his hands off.
"I am out of my mind, and Im going to kill you, you despicable woman!" Ethan Lee gritted his teeth, his hands tightening around her neck, his eyes filled with rage.
Emma was terrified, screaming, "Ethan, be rational, Im your wife..."
"Silence! I dont have a wife who would drug a man!" Ethans body emanated a chilling anger.
His grandfather had a heart attack and was hospitalized yesterday. He rushed back to visit, only to be drugged by this wretched woman.
If it werent for a sliver of sanity suppressing his anger, he would have killed her.
"Drugged? You took medicine last night..." Scenes of a fragrant and romantic night flooded her mind. Emmas face burned with heat one moment, then turned pale the next, as if struck by a blunt object, the pain unbearable.
No wonder he was so eager last night, it was because of the drug?
No wonder he treated her like a different person last night, it was because of the drug!
Slightly dazed, she looked down at the scratches covering his bare chest and the deep tooth marks on his broad shoulder. Emmas heart filled with desolation.
He didnt even bother to ask, just assumed she was the one who drugged him?
"I didnt, Im not the kind of woman without shame!"
Emma struggled to breathe, her eyes filled with tears, defiantly meeting the mans gaze.
"Ha, not you, then who? Tell me!" Ethan was furious at her feigned innocence.
Last night, she had approached him with a mask of gentle obedience, offering him milk, which made him let his guard down and drink it. Otherwise, how could he have betrayed Ivy and consummated their marriage?
Thinking of this, Ethans fingers, which had momentarily loosened, tightened again. The anger in his black eyes had turned into deep hatred.
"Emma, I didnt intend to bring up what happened two years ago, but you keep doing such shameless things. I warn you, although I gave you a name, I can also take it back at any time and leave you destitute, out of the Lee family!"
Ethans eyes were bloodshot, hatred burning away his last shred of sanity. His fingers, entwined around her neck, turned white from the force. Emma could only exhale, the pain in her chest from lack of oxygen not matching the pain in her heart!
What happened two years ago that she didnt know about, that made him so angry!
Her head grew increasingly painful, her consciousness beginning to blur, but the pain in her heart became more clear and profound. Ethan really wanted to strangle her to death!
"I dont understand... what youre talking about, I havent... done anything!"
Her vision began to darken; she didnt want to die. Driven by an instinctive desire to live, she bent her leg and kicked the man in his most vulnerable spot.
"Oof..."
With the muffled groan, Ethan released her and collapsed onto the side of the bed.
Emma greedily inhaled the fresh air, reaching out to push his shoulder. In her glance, she met the mans deep black eyes, and her heart began to race wildly.
She was as white as a jade figure, her fair skin covered in amorous marks...
Still, the disgust was overwhelming, but the place where she had just kicked him was now...
He actually...
Ethan looked at her in disbelief, suppressing the suspicion that arose in his heart, and snapped, "Get out now!"
