Chapter 62 Bathroom Encounter
His icy fingertips slid down her cheek like a snake spitting venom, but Avery couldn't be bothered to
argue with him. She knew he was having an episode.
When they started dating, he had three demands: no betrayal, no one touching her, and no leaving.
She had noticed early on that Jacob had an abnormal possessiveness toward her. He could make
someone's entire family disappear just because she was slapped.
He would also grow resentful if she received any attention at school. During the sports meet, when she
fell, the sports committee member carried her to the infirmary.
That night, she witnessed Jacob's dark side for the first time. He uttered only a few words, "Clean
yourself up."
No matter how much Avery tried to explain, he wouldn't listen. That night, she was pinned under the
cold water from the showerhead.
Although Jacob was somewhat abnormal, she loved him dearly. She quit school for him, reducing her
chances of being seen in public.
But after their divorce, his madness only grew.
Her stomach was already aching, and the side effects of chemotherapy had only been relieved a little.
The room had no heating, and being drenched with cold water made Avery feel unbearably cold.
"Turn it off. It's cold. Jacob, I'm feeling cold."
Jacob pressed her body against the cold stone bricks, and his smile was chilling.
"Avy, if I hold you, will you still be cold?"
"Freak, you're a freak!"
Avery trembled as she reached out for the shower switch, but Jacob caught her hand.
He lifted her arm above her head, her body perfectly outlined by the dampness.
Jacob was in a similar situation. His white shirt clung to his body, and the outline of his abs could be
visibly seen.
His body was hot, pressed tightly against hers.
The atmosphere between them immediately became ambiguous. Jacob turned his head and whispered
in her ear, his voice deep and low, "Avy, even if we're divorced, you can only be my woman. Have you Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
forgotten?"
"Let go of me. As I said, nothing is going on between Nicholas and me." Avery didn't dare to provoke
him too much and could only suppress her anger as she explained.
He sneered. "If there's nothing, why did you move into his apartment? Avy, do you think you can rely on
the Lewis family after leaving me? How about we make a bet? How long do you think the Lewis family
can hold on?"
Her apartment belonged to Nicholas? Avery didn't have time to think about this.
All she could do was use her left hand to hit him in anger. Even if it didn't hurt, it was better than doing
nothing.
"Jacob, you're the one who cheated, the one who wanted a divorce, and the one who's engaged to
someone else. If you don't understand what a divorce means, go ask your lawyer. Who do you think
you are to control me?"
She questioned him in a sobbing tone, "Are you a tyrant? Why do you keep intruding into my life
repeatedly if you're planning to leave? If this is your new way of tormenting me, you might as well kill
me."
His lips kissed her tears mixed with cold water, his voice icy and emotionless. "Avy, I gave you a
chance, but you gave up on it yourself. Divorce, for me, is just a legal separation. In your lifetime, you
will always live under my control."
Avery remembered. After being soaked in cold water all night, he had asked her if she wanted to leave.
He was nothing but a beast, and staying by his side would only harm her. While he still had some
control over his love for her, he could send her away.
"Do you remember your answer at the time? You held onto my waist and told me that if there was
sickness, we would be sick together. If there was medicine, we would take it together. Except for death,
you would never leave me."
Avery looked at his blurry face under the dim light and asked in a cold voice, "What if I really die?"
