My Dreamy Old Husband

Sometimes, she would rather she had never been to this world before.

There were also times that she would think of the past, and she would hate herself and the whole world.

Back then, she was only three or four years old. She was ignorant and would run around in her open-crotch pants. When her uncle offered to bathe her, she always agreed without knowing anything.

Her two older cousins often bullied her. They were still kids when that photo was taken. They were ignorant, but Liam was old enough to be sensible. However, instead of stopping them, he took out his phone to take pictures. If it weren’t for her grandma, who arrived in time and shooed everyone away…

Sophia still remembered what her grandmother told her: “Never let anyone touch a part of your body your swimsuit would cover!”

She kept that in her mind, and when Liam came and offered to bathe her again, she would splash him with water!

Ever since her grandmother had passed away, Liam’s family had taken her in. Knowing that the only person in this world who could protect her was gone, she could only take care of herself now.

Since then, she lived her life like a hedgehog. Whenever the boys in the village tried to bully her, she would rush toward them like a beast and fight them. She remembered one instance that she hated the most was when a boy urinated in front of her. Like a mad man, she went up and kicked him in the balls!

After that, every boy in the village was afraid of her and they dared not bully her again. However, that did not make her life any better. She continued to live under the shadow of Liam. She wouldn’t dare to sleep soundly at night because the door lock was broken and no one would fix it for her. It was common for her to open her eyes at midnight seeing a dark figure in front of her bed staring at her.

That was the shadow of her life; the nightmare that she could never get rid of in her lifetime.

She bit Liam’s palm that covered her mouth and tried to call for help. Her cries brought her aunt to her.
