Wrath Of His Heart

Chapter 37 Truth

Cassandra's pov

I was lying on the hospital bed in silence except for the beeping sound of the machines. I remorse about everything that happened, how careless I was and vulnerable at his hands. I feel ashamed of myself. If not for Vincent, I am sure that idiot would have robbed my innocence.

Also, this morning I heard that he got out of the case by threatening Vincent and my Dad with Hazel's nudes, that is if I put a case against him, he will send the photos to the world. Also, the lawyer said we have to submit a medical report if we have to file a case against him. They were yet thinking of what to do next.

The door opens and in comes Mom with a glass of Avocado juice, my favourite, she hands it over to me and says "How are you feeling darling? Does your head hurt? Do you need anything else?"

"No Mom I am better now, though I feel discomfort at times when I think about that hideous act he did but everything is fine now. Mom, when will they discharge me? I am bored to death here."

Mom caress my head and places a kiss saying "Baby don't stress yourself, Vincent will look after everything, he told me that since you are doing fine they might discharge you tomorrow. I also heard that you refused to take up the medical test to prove Nolan guilty."

"Yes Mom, I don't want to take it up, it's of no use anyway, moreover he is blacking mailing using her photos" I say looking everywhere but her eyes.

"But why? It's a small procedure moreover don't worry about Hazels photos, they will find a way out" she pleads me and I say "Because it's of no use Mom."

"What do you mean by no use, Let's see, we will have our way past Hazel's photos I promise" she tells.

"Mom understand that he did nothing that could send him to jail, Vincent was there, he stopped it" I raise my voice since I could no longer take it.

"Stop it Cassandra, what's wrong with taking a test that could have even a single per cent of sending that bastard to the jail for what he did to you and Hazel?" she loses her patience at me and shouts.

I feel tears stinging my eyes and no longer could I keep the truth to myself, so I let loose my emotions when I yell "What do you want to prove to the world, that your daughter is a virgin? Even after being married for nearly a year, she is a virgin, or in the last 24 years of my life I never was laid, what Mom? What do you want? Tell me, you want those people to destroy my life more when they get to know that their plan is not working of getting us married, by not having a heir. These are the same people who wanted kids when we barely were 4 months into this relationship."

I start to sob when Mom comes to me and pulls me into a hug and questions "What is it darling? Is everything fine with you and Vincent, do we have to talk to him?"

"No Mom nothing is right, this marriage is not right, he is not right for me, I am not right for him, we both are doomed from the start, even before our story started we were over. So please do me a favour and let it be, please don't do anything, I beg you to be..." I was cut off when Vincent walks in and sees me crying.

"Merda baby, is everything fine? Does your head hurt? Why are you crying, Devo chiamare un medico?" he asks in concern holding my hands.
(merda= fuck; Devo chiamare un medico= shoul I call the doctor)

"Hmm what? I am fine it was a light headache, I am better now" I say and he pulls me into a hug and says "Forgive me, Cassandra, I can't do anything to the shithead, I feel like killing him with my own hands but you know baby, my hands are tied."

"It's fine Vincent, everything is good, don't worry" I say and a yawn escapes my mouth. He helps me lay down and sits down next to me when Mom excuses herself. Thankfully she keeps my secret with her.
