His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1325 Discharged From The Hospital

When Holley was almost driven to the edge of collapsing, she heard a very slight sneer from Rex.

"You'd better not lie to me, or the consequence will be worse than you can imagine. Most importantly,

don't do it again. You'd better remember that!" Rex posted his threat.

Holley nodded quickly as she replied submissively, "Yes, Mr. Hu. I will remember every word that you

said." She still had a lingering fear after the narrow escape.

Rex looked at her frightened and coward face. He couldn't help feeling disgusted towards her. He

always looked down upon such kind of woman, who was ambitious yet lacked the ability and courage

to match it. Moreover, she chose a wrong path. Rex couldn't figure out why his son, Black, would take a

fancy to her.

If he had known earlier what kind of woman Holley was, he would stop Black and give him a lesson in

the first place. He would expose her in front of him. But now he knew that Black was already obsessed

with her. There was nothing he could do to change his mind and break them apart. Black was always a

stubborn boy, so he could only ask Holley to behave herself.

Rex opened the door of the villa and asked Holley to go inside.

"Miss Ye, you have to stay here tonight. I know it's not fancy enough for you, but you have no other

choice. Tomorrow morning, someone will come to pick you up," Rex stated coldly. He didn't even wait

for Holley to answer. Rex turned around and left.

The noise of the door shutting startled Holley. It immediately brought her back to her senses.

She wandered in the lonely lobby like a ghost, not knowing what to do next. Finally, she went towards

the sofa and sat on it. She grabbed a pillow tightly in her arms, trying to get some comfort from it. Right

now, it was the only thing that she could rely on.

It was getting darker outside. Soon, a fierce gale sprang up, with frightening thunder and lightning. The

air felt thick and humid. It was going to rain soon.

Holley remembered her phone and took it out, only to find that there was no signal. A feeling of

loneliness and helplessness swept over her all of a sudden.

What was worse, the lights in the villa started to flicker, and then they finally went out.

'It might be the bad weather that has caused the unstable electricity supply, ' Holley thought numbly.

Soon, rain started to pour from outside the window. It was dark everywhere. With the help of the light

coming from her mobile phone, Holley fumbled from her seat and went near the window. She sat on the

floor and listened to the noise of raindrops hitting the ground outside. It was until this time that Holley

felt the world was not so deadly quite, and she was not so lonely.

She stared outside through the window, motionless. The picture of Rex humiliating her flashbacked in

her mind again and again. She remembered clearly how he trampled on her dignity, together with the

helplessness in this cold, dark room, which tortured her.

Holley remained silent as she felt her eyes went watery. She took a deep breath, trying to hold back her

tears, but she couldn't. Soon tears started flowing from her eyes.

The feeling of shame brought by Rex became stronger and stronger. She could feel her heart beating

hard against her chest. Her emotion was as furious as the weather outside.

She swore, 'One day, I will trample on those people who have insulted me and looked down upon me! I

will make them pay for what they did to me!' Holley's eyes turned cold like a serpent. She chewed her

lower lip and bit it hard.

That night, Holley stayed still and didn't close her eyes for a single second.

She listened to the roar of the wind and the falling raindrops the whole night. She didn't dare to take a

nap, because she was afraid that she would be trapped in a nightmare. The more she thought about it,

the more desperate she felt. She felt that the fierce wind had left a scar in her heart forever.

The sky turned dark after she arrived, but now it turned bright again. Holley blinked to adjust her eyes

to the light coming from the window. It was another day.

Holley was almost frozen. She sat huddled against the cold wall overnight, almost frozen. Her limbs

were now stiff, her face pale. Her eyes were both red, with dark circles around them. She was nowhere

near her usual self.

Even though the sun already rose, she couldn't feel any warmth. The world felt more like a hell for her

right now.

The thought that Rex's man would come to pick her up soon stimulated her. She patted her face gently

and rubbed her eyes, trying to look more energetic and more like a living human being. The last thing

she wanted was to show them her weak side.

Gathering all her energy, Holley stood up and went to the toilet. She washed her face with cold water,

and then checked herself in the mirror. She was frightened by her own reflection. She could barely

recognize herself. She looked terrible!

Holley rushed to the lobby and took out the makeup kit in her handbag. She applied some makeup until

she looked gorgeous again. She then sat on the sofa elegantly and waited for her ride.

Soon enough, the doorbell rang. Holley opened the door and walked out slowly.

"Good morning, Miss Ye. Please," the man said, gesturing for her to get inside the car. It was the same

driver from yesterday. He looked still cold.

Holley ignored him. She walked towards the car directly, opened the door and got in. Today's trip was

even quieter than yesterday. None of them said another word.

The car sped on, allowing the water of the muddy puddles to splash against its wheels. Holley looked

outside the car window. The scenery outside was the same as yesterday, except for some broken tree

branches from last night's rain.

At the hospital

It had been quite a long time since Leila had been hospitalized. In fact, she wasn't severely hurt even

after she fell down last time, but she insisted on staying in the hospital just to annoy Sheryl.

Today, Leila finally agreed to get discharged from the hospital. Since Melissa also recovered from her

leg injury, they decided to proceed with the discharge procedure together.

Charles went to the hospital to take Melissa home, and saw them go hand in hand, chatting and smiling

like a happy mother and a daughter-in-law. It was a sweet picture but it hurt Charles. He couldn't help

feeling that everything would've been better if only Sheryl and Melissa could get along well with each

other like that.

Charles felt torn between the two women that he loved most in this world. Sometimes he really felt

exhausted and perplexed. He couldn't figure out why his mother and Sheryl couldn't live in peace. In

his mind, both were equally important. Choosing between them wouldn't be fair to him. However, it was

impossible for the two of them to live a happy life together. They just couldn't get along.

Charles looked down and sighed. He hid all his emotions and walked towards Melissa and Leila.

"Mom, congratulations! You can finally leave the hospital. Let's go home." Then he turned to Leila and

gave her a slight nod, saying politely, "Miss Zhang, I see you have recovered too. Congratulations."

Even though Charles' attitude was cold enough, especially comparing how he treated Melissa just now, This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Leila didn't mind. She felt rather happy that he finally spoke to her proactively. She blushed and

lowered her head shyly.

"Thank you, Charles," Leila replied sweetly.

But Charles couldn't help creasing his eyebrows. He didn't think that he and Leila were close enough,

and hearing her call him directly by his name made him feel uncomfortable.
