Silly Bride

Chapter 256

Is your brain all messed up? Is it worth it? How about this?” Yulissa let out a huge sigh. “I’ll give you a choice. You can beg me to send you to the hospital. I’ll find you the best doctor and the best place to recuperate. As for this woman, I’ll stop torturing her, but I will keep her locked up in here and let her fend for herself. If she’s lucky, someone may find this room and bring her out of here. Of course, if she’s not, she may die of thirst and hunger.”Her mind had already fallen into madness as she squatted down and slowly supported Christopher up. “If you kneel in front of me and beg me now, I’ll take you to a hospital. I promise.”It was then Yulissa helped him up and put him in a kneeling position.Staring at her twisted face, he was suddenly amused. “You’re such a pitiful woman. Do you want someone to kneel before you that badly? I’m afraid I’ll disappoint you because I’m not going to do that.”“Why?” Yulissa grabbed his short hair, forcefully lifting his head. “Don’t you want to live?”A cold smile formed on Christopher’s face. “The ugly, twisted expression on your face and your crazy obsession have told me everything I need to know. No matter what I do, you’re going to make sure I suffer. In that case, there’s no need for me to sell out my dignity in front of you.”“Oh? You’re saying I’m ugly and twisted, is it?” His words maddened her.Then, she forcefully struck his head against the wall, each strike harder than the one before.“You want dignity, is it? In that case, I’m going to tear your dignity away and trample on it hard!” As Yulissa spoke, she stood and grabbed a stick sitting in a corner before approaching Winnie.Winnie’s left hand was already let down by Yulissa, but her right arm was still dangling in the air.Without hesitation or delay, Yulissa swung the stick in the direction of Winnie’s right arm.“Stop!” When Christopher returned to his senses, it was already too late for him to stop Yulissa.Yulissa’s stick had already landed on Winnie’s arm. It was pretty evident that, even if the attack didn’t break Winnie’s bone, it would undoubtedly fracture it.There was no way for Winnie to dodge the attack. All she could do was take it.She only groaned in pain once. No matter how painful it got afterward, she resisted the temptation to let her voice out.Yulissa was pissed off when she saw that. I want to see her begging me for mercy as I beat her up! Why is she enduring this silently? What’s the point? “Are you taunting me, Winnie? Aren’t you in pain? If you are, shout then! Cry! Let me witness your wretched death!”Winnie’s entire body was covered in sweat. She would not cry in front of Yulissa because she held back the tears generated in reaction to the pain.With clenched teeth, she glared at Yulissa and sneered, “You’re not getting anything you want from me!”“Okay then!” Yulissa’s eyes turned red from anger. “I can see you’re unwilling to give in to me. In that case, allow me to give you a taste of what it’s like to have your entire body beaten blue and black. I will make you suffer the pain I once endured.”“No! I beg you!” Right as she was about to strike Winnie again, Christopher suddenly struggled to sit straight up. He pleaded, “I’ll kneel and beg you for mercy. Please don’t hurt her. I beg you, Yulissa.”“Now you’re begging me?” A grin abruptly appeared on Yulissa’s face. There were tears in her eyes as she stared agitatedly at Winnie. “See that? Someone’s yielding to me! He’s begging me to stop! Did you see it? He was so willing to die earlier and was arguing with me about his dignity.”She turned to him with anticipation in her crazed look. “Kneel then! Kneel in front of me now!”“Don’t!” With red-rimmed eyes, Winnie looked at Christopher and yelled, “Don’t kneel before her! Don’t do it, Christopher!”“I’m sorry.” He glanced at her before kneeling in front of Yulissa and apologizing to Winnie, “If I had listened to her earlier, your hand wouldn’t have been broken. I’m sorry.”“No!” Winnie shook her head. “Get up! Get back up right now, Christopher! You’re a cop! Why are you kneeling in front of a criminal? You didn’t do anything bad to me! The person who hurt me was her, not you! You don’t need to feel guilty about it!”Christopher’s bloodshot eyes welled up with tears as he gazed at her. Yet, he didn’t know what to say to her.All he did was kneel in front of Yulissa and clutch her leg. “Please, let her go. You can trample on my dignity however you want as long as you let her go.”Yulissa admired the man kneeling in front of her and nodded. “So this is what you look like when you’re kneeling. You look quite well-behaved like this. I still remember how high and mighty you appeared when you captured me. Oh, how the tables turned. I want you to bark and crawl on the ground like a dog, Christopher. Become my dog.”“No! Christopher!” Winnie roared when she saw Christopher was about to get down on all fours in front of Yulissa. “If you do this, I’m breaking off our friendship!”However, he didn’t even bat an eye at her.Like a real dog, he crawled around Yulissa and barked like one after she put a chain around his neck.Still, she remained unsatisfied. Patting his head, she ordered, “My shoe’s dirty. Lick it clean.”“Christopher!” Watching him act like that made Winnie feel even more humiliated than if she was degraded.Thus, she jerked her head away, unable to watch him act like that for even a second longer.When Yulissa noticed that, she promptly raised her leg to lift Christopher’s chin.She stared at him and ordered, “This is no good. Our only audience member isn’t watching the performance. Quickly, go and tell her to open her eyes and let her take a good look at you. Otherwise, I may start swinging my stick again.”He crawled very slowly to Winnie.Lowering her head, Winnie peered at him with falling tears.Initially, there was no light left in Christopher’s eyes. However, when he saw Winnie, that light flickered back into existence. “No need to feel sorry for me. If I hadn’t gotten through that door earlier, you’d be doing this right now. My heart would’ve been shattered if that had happened instead. I don’t think I’m going to make it, so you must. I’ve come this far, anyway, so I may as well listen to her command. Look at me. Just look at me for one more second. That way, someone will remember me for one second longer in this world.”A small pool of blood formed below his body when he stayed in front of Winnie for a while.She was choking and sobbing uncontrollably.Peering at her, Christopher grinned. “If I die, you’ll remember me, right?”“I will!” She nodded. “I’ll never forget you.”Clap! Clap! Clap! Out of nowhere, Yulissa clapped her hands. “Wow, what a touching scene. It gave me goosebumps. Anyway, what should we play next? Hmm… Oh, I know.”Then she pulled the chain and dragged Christopher back. “You like Winnie a lot, right? Today, I’m going to give you an opportunity of a lifetime. I’ll let you play the role of a dog in heat. See that camera? Take off your clothes and f*ck the woman you love. What do you think? It’s something you’ve been dreaming of doing, right?”Christopher thought his dignity had already been reduced to nothing, yet she still managed to astonish him with her idea. “Are you crazy?”“Yes! That’s the resentment I want to see! It seems like what I said earlier was inconsequential compared to this! This is what will truly make you feel ashamed! Let’s do this, then! Otherwise, I’ll beat the woman you love to death in front of you!”“You should just kill me!” That was something he couldn’t do in front of her.“What are you saying?” That ticked Yulissa off. “You don’t want to play along anymore? Are you just going to quit halfway through? You’re not taking me for a fool, are you? Fine, it seems like I have to use violence again. Although, truth be told, I much prefer playing games than beating people up.”As she spoke, she lifted her stick.Christopher promptly hugged her leg while feeling dead inside. “Fine, I’ll do as you ask. Just don’t hurt her.”“Good! As long as you’re obedient, I won’t do anything to her. Now, look at the camera and the woman you love.”He crawled toward Winnie numbly.Subconsciously, Winnie closed her eyes.Yet, Christopher immediately stopped her. “Look at me, Winnie!”Winnie could tell that something was off when she heard him speak confidently.Without delay, she opened her eyes and gazed at Christopher.Their current position was inside Yulissa’s blind spot.Then she realized Christopher was tapping his finger on his chest as he started unbuttoning his shirt.That was their special way of communicating with each other.While Winnie understood the message he was sending, it made her feel awful that they had to communicate like
