Rae’s face became hotter. She was very shy, as she pushed him away. “Don’t sit so close to me!”
Marcel propped his hands on each side of her body, lowering his head as he watched her, his eyes filled with a devilish seductiveness.
Rae looked at him, meeting his eyes.
His pupils were pitch black, the bottom of his eyes churned with a darkness she could not see through.
Yet, she did not care.
From when she met him again, she was already in a daze, she could not let go.
Loving him was an obsession.
It was a desperate love that could not turn back!
She had nowhere to run!
In the morning, when the first ray of sunshine shone in the bedroom through the curtains, Rae woke up. She opened her eyes, feeling that the weather today was extraordinarily well!
She was Marcel’s girlfriend now!
He had left very late last night, without making any further moves. He merely iced her face for her, checked her foot, and then he left!
Rae began to take leave today, and she did not plan to go outside.
She got up and got herself ready. She looked at herself in the mirror, the swelling on her face had gone down, the handprints were no longer visible. Her face was beautiful as usual, she smiled at the mirror. Her smile was dazzling, it was no longer the forced smile from before!
Yet she still felt surreal, how had Marcel just become her boyfriend?
After she washed up herself, she thought of Raphael!
She looked at the opposite balcony, Raphael had moved here. Raphael might be going to prison afterwards, and she began to worry again!
No, she must go out. She would go to find the best lawyer to defend Raphael!
After she tidied up, she limped downstairs. She had not made it to the stairway, when she saw a slender figure walking this way.
It was Marcel.
Rae was a little uneasy, she did not know how to greet him.
What should she call him?
Captain Hopkins?
