"He also said he didn't beat me too hard, so I should stop overreacting…."
Diamond covered her mouth as she tried not to gasp too much. She had been wondering why Chloe hid so much of the abuse she had experienced.
Every time Diamond asked, Chloe often just glazed at the fact that her ex-husband just beat her as if it was nothing serious.
This wasn't 'just beat her.' This was real torture!
Vincent Gray tortured her!
It was so fucked up when she realized that Chloe was so used to the abuse she didn't even try to cry anymore.
Diamond gently supported Chloe's hand on top of hers, so Diamond could check them without hurting Chloe.
She shook her head out of disbelief, "Chloe, let's go to the hospital. You can't fix this alone, you need to go to the ER!"
Chloe pulled her hand and tried to hide it behind her back, "It's nothing much. I think I just need to dip it in a bowl of ice for a while and it'll return to normal."
