Ex-Husband Who Has Gone Mad After Abusing His Wife -
Chapter 27
Chapter 27
I suddenly realized Chris had forgotten to prescribe medicine to me.
The car belonged to Liam, and the driver was his employee. I could not go to
another hospital.
I leaned on the door and closed my eyes. The dizziness accompanied me
into my dreams.
In my dreams, Liam appeared in front of me.
His eyes were half-closed as he gently placed an ice pack on my cheek.
His eyes were beautiful. They brimmed with authority whenever he was
angry. When he gazed at me like that, they seemed gentle and reserved.
The dim yellow light of the room enveloped his body. He was like a scene
from an old photograph.
That was when I knew I was dreaming.
His embrace was warm, and his body smelled faintly of cologne and
tobacco. If I paid attention, I could smell his unique body scent too.
I guess I’m a dog. Only a dog would remember scents, and only a dog would
be so loyal to their master even after being abused.
I covered my face to hide away from him. “You should go…”
My chest ached, and tears poured from my eyes. I did not hold back.
I did not have to hold back when crying in my dreams.
After all, I was alone and always had been.
I took a deep breath and allowed my tears to wet my hair and palms.
I did not want to admit it, but I was hoping… he would call me out on my lie.

I wanted to see his reaction upon realizing my cancer was real, and I wanted
him to regret treating me like this.
Never mind. I should not have to stoop myself.
“Stop appearing,” I mumbled. I was not only talking to the meaningless
hallucination in front of me but to my mind creating these meaningless
hallucinations. “Stop appearing. It hurts…”
Stop appearing and let me sleep.
I only had half a year left. That was less than two hundred days.
Every day was precious to me.
I cried until my tears ran dry and calmed down after my emotions were
released.
I removed my hands from my face, and I could sense light through my
eyelids.

I opened my eyes… and saw a familiar face. Those judgmental eyes were
sharp and piercing like an unsheathed blade.
I was dumbfounded, and I held my breath while staring at that pallid face.
A long while later, Liam began to speak. “So it’s him.”

Each of his words was chillingly cold. I did not know what he was referring to,
but I felt fear.
“I was wondering why your behavior changed. Is that why you suddenly want
a divorce, hmm? And you don’t mind not taking anything with you?” He said
while he grabbed my lower jaw and glared at me. “How long have you been
with him?”
My mouth could not move. He was gripping hard where he slapped me
earlier.

“So you’re not speaking,” Liam grunted, let go of me, and stood up. I thought
he was behaving like a lunatic.
My scalp suddenly felt numb. I wanted to run away, but there was a sharp
pain on my scalp.
Liam grabbed my hair and dragged me on the floor.

I tried to struggle, but I was not as strong as he was. He dragged me into the
bathroom and tossed me into the bathtub.
I fell into the deep bathtub and choked on water. After that, he grabbed me
by my hair and dragged me out again.
I coughed hard. My lungs felt like they were on fire, and my vision was blurred
by water. Liam’s cold voice rang next to my ears again. “I’ll ask you one more
time. How long have you been with him?”
I coughed for a long time to clear my lungs. “I don’t know what you’re talking
about…”

Before I could finish, my head was plunged into the water again.
Twenty seconds later, he pulled my head up.
“Tell me the truth if you don’t want to die.” He spoke very slowly this time,
“How… long… have… you… been… with… him?”
I gasped and wiped the water from my face.

His expression was frigid, and veins bulged on his forehead. The harsh white
lighting of the bathroom made him look like a devil from hell.
Instead of fear, I felt so distant from him.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I said. I was not completely in the
dark. He said something about a doctor earlier, so he might be talking about
Chris. That was incredibly absurd.
“Just drown me,” I said.
Liam did not say anything.
He continued to glare at me like a serial killer. I could see that his left hand
was clenched tightly into a fist.
I kneeled in the water and stared at him in the eye for half a minute, showing
no fear.
What was death to a person who was about to die?
A long time later, Liam let go of my hair and nodded. “Very well, Vivienne.”
He loosened his tie and tossed it aside. “Looks like you have found true love
this time.”
My heart was at my throat. “What do you want?”
“What do I want?” He smirked. “You were the one who begged me to marry
you, and now you’re playing the martyr? It’s too late!”

I wanted to run away, but my position put me at a disadvantage. I managed
to kick my legs twice before being pinned to the side of the bathtub.
I felt dizzy again, and my stomach churned. I could vaguely hear him.
laughing at me and saying, “Has he done this to you before?”
I said nothing, and I had nothing to say.
It was my first time yesterday, and I believed he knew it.
He was only looking for an excuse to torment me. What choice did I have
when I was only prey to him?
He grabbed my hair and lifted my head.
As strands of hair were separated from their roots, tears flowed from my
eyes because of the pain. I could not see his face clearly, but I could hear him
growl, “Vivienne!”

“Who am I?” he asked.
Who is he?

knew the answer he wanted, and I was not going to make myself suffer over
such a trivial question. I averted his gaze and said with a trembling voice,
“Liam Mendez.”
“Very good.” He let go of my hair and grabbed my lower jaw so I had to look
at him. “Who am I to you?”
“Husband…” My eyes were blurred by tears. I did not want to look at his face
anyway. “You’re my husband.”
“I’m surprised you still remember,” he said with a sinister slant to his voice.
“What should you call me then?”
“Go on! Are you mute?” he urged.

I should call him ” Liam darling.”
That was what I used to call him, even though he hated and despised me
I thought those two words sounded cute and intimats. It represented the
bond between us.
I did not want to call him that anymore.
