His Ex Wife Is A Billionaire
Chapter 286
Chapter 286
Jareth cradled Marilla in his arms and climbed into the car. Lily, always playing the role of the driver, steered the luxury vehicle out of the Windermere Estate.
Inside the car, Jareth held Marilla close, softly stroking her silky hair, his heart aching with a bittersweet pain.
His original plan for the evening had been to go out for a drink with Thaddeus, but upon entering the house, he was greeted with an unexpected scene.
As Jareth thought about the heartbreaking words Linda had spoken, about the terrifying scars he’d seen on Marilla’s arms, a burning rage consumed him. It was as if his blood had turned into icy daggers, piercing his heart and spreading a sharp, intense pain throughout his body.
This pain was unlike anything he’d ever experienced before.
Before, when he was heartbroken over Evadne, it definitely hurt. But that kind of pain was nothing compared to what he was feeling now.
He took a deep breath, his chiseled jaw resting atop Marilla’s head, his fiery eyes slowly closing.
He thought, “Manilla, I promised you. I would protect you.”
And when Jareth made a promise, he kept it.
“Mr. Jareth, where are we going next?” Lily asked, her voice low as she glanced at Jareth through the rearview mirror.
Jareth was taken aback, unsure of how to respond.
Sure, he’d declared in front of Glynnis that he was taking Marilla away. But that didn’t mean he could just bring her back to his place like this!
If Thaddeus found out, wouldn’t he skin him alive?
“Marilla, I can take you to see Thad, or maybe your sister–in–law. You could stay with her for tonight. How does that sound? Jareth suggested gently, his long lashes casting shadows on his cheeks.
Marilla didn’t respond, her brow furrowed in pain as she clutched her left ear.
“Marilla? Marilla?”
Jareth called her name several times, but she didn’t seem to notice, offering no response.
“All I hear is… pain.” Marilla murmured.
“Where does it hurt?”
Marilla slowly looked up at Jareth, her cheeks still bearing the imprint of Glynnis’s slap. Her doe–like eyes, soaked with tears, were so heart–breakingly beautiful that Jareth’s heart skipped a beat.
