Rewriting My Heart's Fate (Ethan and Evelyn) novel Chapter 442

"I really… can't stay," I told him.

"What did you say?" Ethan froze, lifting his eyes to look at me. "You still want to leave, huh? Do you really think you'll be able to escape now? Call the police if you want to. But are you sure you have the heart to do that?"

He'd barely finished speaking when he scooped me up in his arms and strode over to the desk in the corner of the room.

I yelped, scared that I'd fall to the ground. My hands subconsciously shot up to hook themselves around his neck.

In the next instant, I was roughly thrown onto the desk. And before I knew it, Ethan was already on top of me.

"This is my final warning," he whispered in my ear. "Don't leave me, or I'll…"

As his voice trailed off, he forcefully pried my legs apart. I froze and started trembling.

How could he do this to me? At this moment, he seemed like a ravenous beast. I struggled against Ethan with all my might, but the more I struggled, the more excited and gruff he became.

"Stop resisting," he said into my ear. "You are mine. No one can take you away."

That said, he forcefully pushed my legs apart with his knee.

"Ah!" My cries filled the air as tears fell, and my body arched from the pain.

Ethan vented out his frustrations on me all night. When it was dawn, he finally collapsed on top of me and fell asleep.

My grip on my phone tightened as my knuckles turned white. I tried hard to steady my breathing and pretended as if I was fine.

"I'm okay. It's just that… I want to discuss something with you," I told him. "I want to head back to expand my business. Can you help me book the earliest flight ticker?"

"You're coming back? Is it that urgent?" Kevin was astonished. After a moment of silence, he gingerly asked, "Evelyn, did something happen between you and Mr. Grayson? Did you two get into a fight?"

I croaked a bitter laugh as tears blurred my vision once again. I really hoped that Ethan and I merely get into a fight. But the truth was that he'd ruined my dignity.

"It's nothing. I just want to head back to settle something. The design for the company's logo has been decided. I'll leave everything else to the staff in the Lendora branch. There's nothing I can do here anyway. It's better for me to head back soon."

"I see," Kevin mumbled and fell into deep thought. He seemed to have realized that something was off about the entire thing, but he didn't prod me about it. He readily agreed to my request.
