Chapter 48 Livia knelt down while taking off Damianâs shoes. She did it much more carefully than before because Damian was silent from the moment he got out of the car, His face looks annoyed. Plus, the one-sentence Assistant Brown said made her pound the whole way up the stairs to enter the room.
âYoung master is in a very bad mood. So donât refute anything he says.â
Indeed, she never dares to refute him openly. Even if he was in a good mood, she would always obey.
But why did he upset? Is she upset about Helenaâs problem again? Livia was full of questions in her mind.
Finally, Livia finished taking off his shoes, and she put the house slippers under Damianâs feet.
As she was about to get up, her husband touched her shoulder. Half pressing. Brings her back to her knees.
Livia began to feel uncomfortable. Itâs not just that heâs in a bad mood, but it looks like heâs furious.
âDid you meet Ele today?â his voice was cold.
Ba-dump!
âHow could he know? Is he really watching my every move out there? Is Brown tailing me? How can he accurately read my movements? Even Brown seemed to know what I was just thinking easily during this time.
âYes, my darling.â Livia stammered. She still lowered her head. âI went for coffee and talked to her.â
She was afraid to see the look in Damianâs eyes.
âHuh!â Damian grabbed Liviaâs sleeve, and the girl was startled. Damianâs eyes were full of anger.
Why? Why are you angry?â
Damian now gripped the girlâs chin. âDo you want to divorce me?â
Livia began to be able to feel the direction of Damianâs conversation.
âAnd you want to use Ele to make me let you go?â
Hearing what Damian had just said, Livia cursed Assistant Brown in her mind. What did he say to his master?! Why is he revealing a hypothesis that she disproved yesterday? Itâs just a plan in her head. Why is he blaming her? What kind of crime is that? That intention cannot yet enter the realm of crime.
âAnswer!â Damian shouted.
âNo, no, my darling.â
Damian pushed Liviaâs body onto the sofa beside him. The girl slumped backward.
âIâm just talking to Helena, and I just want to be friends with her.â Liviaâs whole body has reacted to remind herself that Damian is in an unstable state of emotion. Just a little wrong answer, she would be finished. âBe friends? Why?â
âBecause she is very beautiful. Darling, all women are happy to have beautiful female friends because being friends with beautiful women would make us beautiful too.â Livia added a laugh and a smile to her lips.
âHa ha ha.â Damian laughed. âDo you think Iâm stupid?â
Livia slumped even more, shifting her body until she hit the end of the sofa.
âNo, Darling.â
Livia doesnât know why is he this angry? Is he mad because she wants to set him up with Helena again? Finally, Livia realizes that maybe she is doing something too early. He still hasnât forgiven Helena. Thatâs right. She had the wrong strategy. She should have waited for his anger at Helena to subside before taking action.
âYou really want to make me mad, donât you?â
âNo, my Darling, no. I dare not. I beg your pardon.â pleading, Liviaâs body was already pressing closer to the corner. She doesnât know why he is angry. Is it because she wants a divorce? Or because she said she wanted to be friends with Helena? But right now, the look in his eyes was terrifying. Livia was really afraid that he would do bad things, not only to her but also to her family.
âYou know why I married you, right?â
Livia nodded her head repeatedly. Se knew, knew from Helena the real reason.
âYou just want to avenge Helena. I am okay, Darling. You have given my family a chance to live a second time. So whatever your reasons are, it doesnât matter to me.â
Let this heartache feel only for her. After all, she can find her own happiness when she is free from all this.
Damian pulled the girlâs body closer. Grabbed Liviaâs chin. Then he forcibly kissed Liviaâs lips.
This time itâs not just a peck on the lips. Itâs more than that.
âOpen your mouth!â
He bit Liviaâs lips, which didnât want to open. In the end, the girl lost.
Damian crushed the defenses of the girl in front of him. That kiss persists. Tears were running down Liviaâs cheeks. Her hands gripping the sofa were shaking.
âThatâs punishment for you for thinking presumptuous.â Damian sat down, touched her lips, and looked at her still with unfriendly eyes.
What?! What did I do wrong? Where did I go wrong? Tell me where my mistake is? so I can beg and not do it again.â But, of course, she has no guts to spit out the question.
âMr. Matt! Come on in!â
The door opened, and Livia wiped her lips and fixed her loose hair.
âCall two maids to help the young lady get ready for tonight.â
Getting ready for tonight? What does he want tonight?
âOkay, young master.â After nodding his head, Mr. Matt left quickly, closing the door silently.
After Mr. Matt came out, Livia had finished tidying her hair. Trying to get the courage to ask.
âDar, Darling...â
âGet ready for our first night.â
Livia was taken aback.
âIâm going to tear you apart tonight. Isnât this what you want too? Sleep with me.â
He held Liviaâs chin again. Damian wiped his red lips from the bite mark, and a cold grin appeared on his face.
His words were like lightning in broad daylight that struck Liviaâs body, and he left the room, slamming the door with a loud sound.
Livia jumped in surprise.
âWhy is he so angry today? Where did I go wrong? The first night? Tear me apart? Mother! Please help me.â
