Stabbed

Hesitantly nodding his head, "Yes–no–yes, I mean no. I'll never–"

"Shut up! All my life spent with you was a living hell Grayson. You treated me like a slave. I submitted myself to you. Have you forgotten how you come home late and drunk and ended up raping me?"

"Petra, we've talked about that longtime ago. I apologized and you told me you've forgiven me." Thirty years ago when they newly got married, Grayson started experiencing hard times and difficulties.

He often arrive home late, drunk and helplessly. Petra is the only one left to render him help and during the process of that, he ends up assaulting her without her consent. Petra forgave him a couple of times whenever he does it, because they weren't strangers but legally married couples.

"Absolutely, but right now, it's fuming up in my head and I can't control the pain that cause me." She yelled. Pulling Mrs Maggie's attention out of the lobby.

Widening her eyes in shock, "Ma'am–"

"Don't say a single word Maggie." Narrowing her eyes, she gritted her teeths with tears rolling down her cheeks, "You have no idea what I went through in the hands of this thing whom called himself my Ex husband. But today, I swear to God, am going to root him out of this earth."

Before he could say anything, she notched the knife in his stomach for couple of times just as the anger in her leaded her to.

Looking down at his right rib which was heavily gushing out thick bloods, he placed his hand on it and gaze at her.

With an astonish expression on her face, the soaked knife fell off her hand instantly.

"Petra, if th-this––if this is going to bring the joy you wanted then so be it." Without waiting for her answer, he slowly shut his eyes and fell helplessly to the ground.

"Grayson!" She rushed towards him. Squatting down, she burst into tears and started shaking him, "Gray–Grayson, open your eyes and look at me. Am sorry, I was super crazy, please wake up."

Looking at Mrs Maggie, she shouted like a mad woman, "Call the ambulance now!" Patting his face, "Grayson am sorry please open your eyes please I beg of you. It was a mistake."

Clutching her hands on her hair, she sobbed harder, "Petrarchan what the heck have you done? I couldn't control myself."

Sniffing her nose, she shook his face, "Oh my God, Grayson, can you hear me? Listen, I promise, I've forgiven you from the dept of my heart. I swear, I'm willingly forgiving you I promise–maggie call the ambulance!" She wept and placed her head on his chest.

Night

Ryan's Beach House

Sebastian and Jin-joo's room.

Tying her hair into a messy bun, Jin-joo just had an hot water bath after having a delicious dinner made by Sebastian.

Putting on one of Sebastian's hoody, she fixed the hood's cover and made her way towards the bed.

Fixing the pillows to its place, she rearrange the bedsheets. Glaring at the wall clock, "Ugh, now tell me what the hell is he still doing outside?" She groaned.

"Everyone are indoors but he is still outdoor, doing what? When the time says half past nine." She muttered.

Just then Sebastian walked into the room. Crossing his arms on his chest, he curled his lips upwards without taking his eyes off the beautiful damsel whom was so busy muttering words while arranging the bed.

Stopping midway when she noticed a fresh presence around. Turning around, she squealed in shock.

Placing her hand on her chest, "Ah, Seb, you scared me. Infact why are you coming in at this hour?"

When he grinned, she raised her brows, "Seriously, is that an answer, Sebastian?"

Without saying anything, he made his way towards her.

Letting out a chuckle, she flicked his forehead, "Don't play smart with me, now answer the damn question."

Wrapping his arms around her, he pulled her closer and winked.

Placing her hands on his chest with astonishment, "Seb, my question still awaits for an answer."

Ignoring her statements, he started trailing kisses on her nape. "I was having a brief chat with Ryan."

"And what was the chat all about?" She chuckled.

"What the heck are you curious about?"

"Well uhh–" Swallowing the rest of her words when he crashed his lips on hers.

Hooking her arms around his neck, she yipped on him and quickly wrap her legs around his waist.

Still in the mood of kisses, he made his way towards the bed. Stumping her on the bed, he broke the kiss. Taking his t-shirt off, he tossed it aside.

Jin-joo widened her eyes after seeing his alluring and brawly upper body. Biting her lower lip in nervousness, she gulped in anticipation.

Before she could say a single word, he pressed his lips on hers.
