The Day Our Promise Breaks (Charles and Evelyn) novel Chapter 24

The man dragged her inside once again.

Evelyn winced in pain and instinctively reached out to scratch his hand, which was immediately marked with several bloody scratches.

He got furious, threw Evelyn backward and slapped her hard across the face. "Bitch, you had this coming!"

Evelyn was struck so hard that stars danced before her eyes, and it took her a long time to recover.

In the dim light cast by the streetlamps outside, he gazed at Evelyn's stunningly beautiful face with a sinister smile. "Just behave and it'll be easier on you."

Then, he lunged at her.

"Let me go. I can pay you."

Evelyn was both scared and panicked, but she tried to keep calm on the surface, attempting to negotiate her release with the man.

"Money? No amount of money is as enticing as you, beauty."

The man was unmoved, laughing lewdly and eagerly leaning down to kiss her.

Evelyn hurriedly dodged. The man's lips landed on her cheek, and his foul breath made her stomach churn. Her throat was already hoarse from screaming, but she refused to give up.

She struggled desperately, kicking and punching. The man spread her legs and pinned her down, making her immobile. His eyes were full of lust. He couldn't wait any longer.

With a rip, he tore open the clothes inside her coat. His actions became more frantic and rough.

"Get off! Don’t touch me!!" Evelyn screamed fiercely. But no matter how hard she fought, she couldn't stop the man at all.

His coarse hands touched her, wrapping around her like a venomous snake, sending chills all over her body.
