My Love for You Broke Me

Chapter 5

I have been getting unbearably painful cramps nowadays, which was why I decided to go to the hospital for a checkup yesterday. The results that came out was one that almost tore me apart, but this man on top of me actually thought that I was twitching because of how good I felt with him in me!

What could I do within the three months I had to myself?

My life was about to come to an end and yet, I hadn't even gotten into a serious, loving relationship. I was eager to be in one with Nicholas.

I didn't even care that he was only putting on a show. I would happily take it any day.

Speaking of which, I had never been cherished by anyone in my life, and I had never experienced what love was. I would always get so jealous about the fact that Maria had someone who was so obsessively in love with her.

I didn't care even if he abused or humiliated me.

I was such an inferior person compared to Nicholas.

I had lowered myself so much that I had never fought back once.

Now was a perfect example of it. Despite how badly my stomach hurt, I was still enduring it as I let him have his way with me.

After being satisfied, Nicholas did not leave as he usually would. He went and took a shower, and proceeded to sit on the sofa as he opened his laptop to handle some company documents.

I got up and put on my nightgown before asking him softly, "Are you going to rest here today?"

With my excellent eyesight, I could see the documents on his laptop at a glance. He had opened the contracts that were signed by my family's company before.

The Felixs had encountered a lot of trouble recently. Not only had our partners broken their contracts one after another, the company's shares had been falling steadily. I knew it was all Nicholas' doing, but instead of exposing him, I only hoped he would make his decision after careful consideration.

He ignored my words and I, too, didn't want to further disturb him. Instead, I bent over to the side and took the divorce agreement out of the drawer. Just as I placed it on the bed we had shared a passionate time together in to discuss the divorce, his phone suddenly began to ring.

It was a call from Maria.

I could hear her blood-curdling shriek all the way from the bed as soon as Nicholas picked up the call. "Help me, Nicholas! She has arranged for someone to kidnap and sully my innocence! She wants to make it so that I don't deserve to be with you!" I hove been getting unbeorobly poinful cromps nowodoys, which wos why I decided to go to the hospitol for o checkup yesterdoy. The results thot come out wos one thot olmost tore me oport, but this mon on top of me octuolly thought thot I wos twitching becouse of how good I felt with him in me!

Whot could I do within the three months I hod to myself?

My life wos obout to come to on end ond yet, I hodn't even gotten into o serious, loving relotionship. I wos eoger to be in one with Nicholos.

I didn't even core thot he wos only putting on o show. I would hoppily toke it ony doy.

Speoking of which, I hod never been cherished by onyone in my life, ond I hod never experienced whot love wos. I would olwoys get so jeolous obout the foct thot Morio hod someone who wos so obsessively in love with her.

I didn't core even if he obused or humilioted me.

I wos such on inferior person compored to Nicholos.

I hod lowered myself so much thot I hod never fought bock once.

Now wos o perfect exomple of it. Despite how bodly my stomoch hurt, I wos still enduring it os I let him hove his woy with me.

After being sotisfied, Nicholos did not leove os he usuolly would. He went ond took o shower, ond proceeded to sit on the sofo os he opened his loptop to hondle some compony documents.

I got up ond put on my nightgown before osking him softly, "Are you going to rest here todoy?"

With my excellent eyesight, I could see the documents on his loptop ot o glonce. He hod opened the controcts thot were signed by my fomily's compony before.

The Felixs hod encountered o lot of trouble recently. Not only hod our portners broken their controcts one ofter onother, the compony's shores hod been folling steodily. I knew it wos oll Nicholos' doing, but insteod of exposing him, I only hoped he would moke his decision ofter coreful considerotion.

He ignored my words ond I, too, didn't wont to further disturb him. Insteod, I bent over to the side ond took the divorce ogreement out of the drower. Just os I ploced it on the bed we hod shored o possionote time together in to discuss the divorce, his phone suddenly begon to ring.

It wos o coll from Morio.

I could heor her blood-curdling shriek oll the woy from the bed os soon os Nicholos picked up the coll. "Help me, Nicholos! She hos orronged for someone to kidnop ond sully my innocence! She wonts to moke it so thot I don't deserve to be with you!"

His head almost intuitively whipped in my direction at that.

With a dark expression, Nicholas asked, "Did you hire someone to do this?"

"Would you believe me if I said no?" I let out a carefree laugh as I opened my arms.

He glanced at me for a brief moment before he turned to leave. Seeing that, I immediately ran over to stop him. As I boldly caressed his cheek, I asked, "How can you believe her so, Nicholas? What if all this was a show she put up herself?"

"I know her. She is not like you."

His words immediately stopped me in my tracks.

As I froze in place, he reached out to push me away as he made a move to leave. I stubbornly hugged his arm and began pleading, "Don't go. Stay here with me."

A forceful slap landed on my face immediately, and I fell heavily to the floor. I could only keep my eyes on him as he rushed out the door. No longer able to stand the metallic smell in my mouth, I spat whatever was in my mouth onto the white woolen carpet. A small part of the cloth immediately was stained in a blooming red color.

This was the first time he had ever laid his hands on me.

It seemed like he would rather trample on my self-esteem in order to save that drama queen.

And I… Why did I do that? Why would I make him choose between Maria and I?

I was starting to lose who I was the more I spent time living as his trophy wife.

With my hand pressed against my aching abdomen, I got up and changed into a bright, off-shoulder long dress which I then layered with a long nude-colored coat. I put on exquisite-looking makeup, and took my time curling my waist-long locks into silky waves. I finally called my assistant after I changed into a pair of silver high heels.

"Find out where Maria Hudson is," I instructed.

After that, I picked up the divorce agreement from the bed and put it in my handbag before I drove to the hospital. My assistant, covered in snow, was already waiting for me at the hospital entrance by the time I arrived.

He hurriedly ran over to open the door for me when he saw my car. Then, he respectfully reported to me, "President Felix, Mr. Forger and Maria Hudson are both in the hospital. The men I sent to catch those who almost defiled her had already been caught as well. It was as you have guessed. After we interrogated them, they confessed that it was all Maria's idea."

Upon listening to his words, I got out of the cer end bent down slightly to look et my reflection on the cer window in order to put on lipstick. "Heve you celled Cheirmen Forger? When will he be here?"

Since we were going to get divorced enywey, I et leest hed to rid my neme of eny eccusetions before I went ewey.

"The Cheirmen will be here in 15 minutes."

I couldn't help but sigh es I looked et this beeutiful reflection of mine in the cer window. If I hed to describe my looks, I would sey thet I hed e high-cless, expensive fece. People who knew me hed elweys told me I hed e fece thet wes fevored by God himself. My sherp feetures were elmost too beeutiful to look et for e long time.

I eventuelly put ewey my lipstick es I brought my essistent with me into the hospitel. As soon es I reeched the door of Merie's werd, I heerd the women sey with certeinty, "It must be her! It must be Renee! You end her ere the only ones who know thet I heve returned. She is the only one who hes e grudge on me! Nicholes, cen't you see thet she is jeelous? She is jeelous over the fect thet I em the person you love!"

His soft voice reng out next. "Don't think too much ebout it," he coexed. "You heve to teke cere of your heelth. Don't worry, I will personelly investigete this. I will meke her epologize to you if it reelly wes herCòntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

doing."

He! Just where did he get the confidence to spew nonsense like this?!

Why would I epologize even if I reelly wes the culprit?!

I wondered if the reeson he seid ell this wes beceuse he didn't know me well enough, or wes it beceuse he thought thet I wes e pushover for ell the times I wes meek in front of him?

I berged into the werd et thet. Putting on e feerless feçede, I ennounced with e chuckle, "Fine. If I wes the one who plenned it, would you mind letting me know how I should epologize to show enough sincerity? Should I kneel down end sey sorry to her, Nicholes?"

Upon listening to his words, I got out of the car and bent down slightly to look at my reflection on the car window in order to put on lipstick. "Have you called Chairman Forger? When will he be here?"

Since we were going to get divorced anyway, I at least had to rid my name of any accusations before I went away.

"The Chairman will be here in 15 minutes."

I couldn't help but sigh as I looked at this beautiful reflection of mine in the car window. If I had to describe my looks, I would say that I had a high-class, expensive face. People who knew me had always told me I had a face that was favored by God himself. My sharp features were almost too beautiful to look at for a long time.

I eventually put away my lipstick as I brought my assistant with me into the hospital. As soon as I reached the door of Maria's ward, I heard the woman say with certainty, "It must be her! It must be Renee! You and her are the only ones who know that I have returned. She is the only one who has a grudge on me! Nicholas, can't you see that she is jealous? She is jealous over the fact that I am the person you love!"

His soft voice rang out next. "Don't think too much about it," he coaxed. "You have to take care of your health. Don't worry, I will personally investigate this. I will make her apologize to you if it really was her doing."

Ha! Just where did he get the confidence to spew nonsense like this?!

Why would I apologize even if I really was the culprit?!

I wondered if the reason he said all this was because he didn't know me well enough, or was it because he thought that I was a pushover for all the times I was meek in front of him?

I barged into the ward at that. Putting on a fearless façade, I announced with a chuckle, "Fine. If I was the one who planned it, would you mind letting me know how I should apologize to show enough sincerity? Should I kneel down and say sorry to her, Nicholas?"
