Your Call-Secondhand Serenade
CHAPTER 38
BLAZE
Bruises. The edge of a knife and from what Doctor Adams determined, the edge of a gunshot. She even caught the flu. And doctor Adams said, it's possible that she may also have pneumonia from the cough she has now.
From the looks of it, it seems like she escaped from a torture chamber and she's trying her best to stay alive and survive wherever she came from. From her looks, I know that something bad happened to her tonight that she was so desperate asking me to marry her after a few weeks that she put in my mind that she will never love me.
What drove her here in the middle of the night, or should I say what made her walk or run in here in the middle of the darkness.
Her feet, her tiny soft feet are full of bruises, red and blue.
From what I know, she’s still dating my cousin who couldn’t even have a ball to call off his own engagement to her own sister.
I know Diesel, even right before he breaths.
Diesel is tough and competitive but he’s too coward to disobey my Father’s order.
So, I know he was just going to make Corinne his f*****g mistress. And I, on the other hand have to convinced my Father to let me marry the red-headed girl.
I don’t know what Hannah’s intention is to me, if her feeling were genuine or she was just there to torment me about her cousin, Gian Montgomery’s death.
But Hannah knew secrets that even I didn’t know for the years I am with the Lewis.
She sees behind the closed doors, that I didn’t even imagined can happen.
Maybe it was because she’s here right now, she had enough. She took the courage to leave that house.
I tried my very f*****g best not to do anything with the information or I should say a f*****g secret I had. It will be crushed Corinne, it will f*****g break her heart. She’s going to lose it and can’t Sifford to stand back.
In my own twisted mind, I say in time. I will get the revenge she wants. In time when everything is aligned to all the plans I will laid. I will f*****g be finished him for her, or I should let her finished him off.
Watching her sleeping but with a crease of worry on her forehead, I know that she’s not getting any rest even if she closed her pretty big eyes.
She was far from being at peace when all her life she had her demons lurking beside her.
She was f*****g far from the sophisticated smart mouth girl I had known, she was just faking a façade of a strong girl that doesn’t need anyone in her life but her own.
Why didn’t I saw the red flags? Why didn’t I see the lines? Why did I trust everyone near her?
The rain is still pouring hard outside whilst I let my bedroom window open, I know she loves the coldness of the rain hitting her skin.
I fished my phone out of my pocket and dialed someone I thought I wouldn’t need.
Why did she choose to beg me for my help and not him? Did he do something to her?
Just the thought of someone laid they’re hands on her makes my blood boils and see red.
He answered in the second ring “Where are you?”
“In my room, sleeping apparently. Why?”
“We need to talk.”
He groans in the other line “Can’t it wait till morning, we have—”
“Corinne is in my f*****g room right now, sleeping. So, the hell you should explain to me why she knocks on my door and not on you?” I snap.
He sighs “Let’s talk.”
After fifteen minutes, both of us standing on the mansion’s veranda with a f*****g smoke on our hands.
“Talk.”
“She calls off our relationship earlier. I don’t know why she came in you.”
“Where was the last time you saw her?” I pressed.
“What do you mean?”
“Just f*****g answer, the question.” I snap.
He sighs “5 o’ clock, I think when I left her studio.”
“So, it wasn’t you—” I massage my temple. That leaves her own father, but I didn’t know that Senator Marcus Lewis will do the work obviously. She has full of evidence on her body pointing to his abuse.
“I am not what?”
“Don’t f*****g freak out, she’s taking a rest on my bedroom. She knocks on my door three hours ago, looking for me soaking wet in the rain, still dressed in her uniform but her shoes missing, she has grazed of a knife in her arms, and grazed of a gunshot bullet on the side of her stomach. She has marks all over her skin. Eyes bloodshot red.”
Before I know it, Diesel’s hands are clenching really hard that I can see blood whilst his digging dipper on his palm. He knows something for him to be this mad.
“Fuck.” He mutters.
“What do you know?” I took a drag of my cigarette.
“Something you shouldn’t know.”
“Look, let’s get into reality. You can’t f*****g call off your wedding this weekend with Carina, that leaves me marrying her. I am the one who can help her and protect her from what she’s running off to.” Another hit “—whether you like it or not, she’s f*****g mine to keep.”
His hands were shaking “How can I trust you?”
“You shouldn’t. but you have to know that you can f*****g trust me when it comes to her.”
“He’s abusing her for five years now.”
“I know that.”
“Who told you? She did?”
I shake my head “No, someone who wouldn’t think that was so conniving and dangerous.”
For the past hour, Diesel told me everything I need to know on what’s been happening to Corinne for years, and that even helped me calm my nerves down. In fact, I wanted to kill someone, no it will make this easier for him. I will f*****g put him in the chamber and come back for him when my Corinne having a f*****g nightmare for what he did to her.
This is the end for Diesel and Corinne.
The way he laid all her secrets to me believing that I am the one who can protect the love of his life, believe me I will.
But right now, I just have to get along with the flow off this story, and attack later when everyone f*****g least expected it.
That’s how true evil works.
