Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

139 Denial

“If I didn’t know women like you, I would have thought you were telling the truth. But don’t worry. This grave you dug by yourself, you must enter it.”

“Brother Rex, I’m innocent. May raped me, just like the last time!” She raised her voice before pouting, looking aggrieved. Her lips shook as she tried to suppress her wail.

Rex froze. She regained her memory? Vera used to call him Brother Rex and Maverick, Mav those days. The first time Maverick had his way with her, it wasn’t clear what happened but Vera claimed to have been raped. Ever since, Rex had hated her with passion. Now she’s repeating it again. “What do you mean my brother raped you the last time? If you dare sully my brother’s integrity one more time, I’ll chop you into pieces before he wakes you. You are mad!”

“I- I’m sorry, I was desperate to prove my innocence. She lowered her head and started to drag the cover to her chest.

“The last time, what happened between you two is still unclear. The reason he mistook you for Rossa eight years ago, is still a misery and now, he did it again. Vera, if you aren’t applying underhanded means, what else would explain what is going on? My brother had mistaken you for Rossa, TWICE! What did you do to him those two times?”

“I- I didn’t do anything, I swear with Valen’s life.”

“How dare you bring Valen into this?! Just wait. After Matt gets here and finds anything wrong with my brother, you shall burn from earth to hell!” Rex declared.

He pulled out his phone and called Matt. A while later, Matt arrived to meet only Rex in the room. After checking the sleeping Maverick, he sighed.

“Mav is too stubborn. Don’t worry, nothing serious is wrong with him.”

“Tell me what exactly it is.”

He doesn’t even take the sleeping pills I leave for him. The stubborn bull trash them. I told him that his chronic insomnia will result in severe hallucination; his mind will start to form an illusion of what he desires the most and he might not be able to control
