Chapter 87: Chapter 87 - Mood
As though Jennifer had heard his mind's voice, she wiped her tears and said, "Okay. Don't reply to me. But the next thing that happens, Don't stop me." Jennifer stood up in anger and went outside the room. When she closed the door, Adrian's heart dropped. "Follow her." His mind said. And so he did. He followed her to see her sitting next to Crystal. With a glass of wine in her hands.
That's when Adrian lost patience. And Jennifer knew he would. He hated Crystal so much that the thought of Jennifer sitting next to her was filthy. Jennifer knew that it would anger Adrian. She knew his loathing for Crystal. She was exploiting his weakness but she wasn't ashamed of it. Adrian did the same to her. He knew that he was her weakness yet he did all those things. Why can't she have a little fun?
Adrian didn't speak anything at all. He walked near her. Picked her up bridal style and started walking in the direction of his room. Jennifer was struggling against his strong grip. She kicked the air, punched his chest lightly, told him to leave her many times. Adrian didn't even act like he heard her. He was just like a robot doing a task programmed into his system. When Adrian came inside the room, he threw Jennifer on his bed. He literally threw her on his bed. And then turned around to lock the door.
Jennifer was scared for her life. She didn't know that angered Adrian was so dangerous. Girl!! Are you stupid? He is a mafia. Obviously, he is dangerous. When Jennifer heard the door click indicating that the lock was secure she literally wrapped her arms around her body, trembling in fear. She didn't want anything inappropriate to happen. She began crying silent tears. "No. Please don't come near me." These words exited her lips who were now soaked with her salty tears.
Adrian smirked. "Please don't come near me. Adrian, I swear...." She couldn't complete her sentence. Her mind was stifled with fear. Jennifer found herself literally paralyzed with fear. She didn't know what to do. She didn't know what to say. When Adrian took a first step towards Jennifer, the time in between was enough to bring her back to her senses. "Adrian if you take another step in my direction, I promise you'll regret it." She said as she armed herself with the bedside lamp.
What stupidity! Bedside lamp!! How is it going to help. But this was her best shot right now. Nothing sharp or nothing harmful was near her. "What? Are you going to hit me?" Adrian said while laughing like a maniac. He was in full danger mode. He indicated towards his injured arm and torso. He knew Jennifer couldn't hurt him. She was too soft for something like that. Hurting an already injured person. She wouldn't hurt a stranger, let alone him. He took another step as Jennifer stepped backwards a couple times.
Another step towards her and Jennifer landed with a loud thud on the floor. She had fallen off the bed. The lamp got knocked out of her hands and landed far away, broken into pieces. The glass scattered all over the floor leaving Jennifer in shock. Her last hope to realistically protect herself…. Gone. What will happen now? "Adrian, I love you and I know you love me too. Please don't do this. Please." Jennifer said.
That is when she saw something unexpected. Adrian moved towards her and instead of getting near her, he sat on his bed. He looked at Jennifer as he made a fool out of her. "Did you really think I would so that? And to you? Do you not know me at all?" Adrian asked Jennifer as he laughed a hearty laugh. He had indeed came inside the room very angry but that didn't mean that he would do something like that, that too without her permission. He is a mafia not a rapist.
Jennifer stood up still confused. "Do you mean that you were not going to…" she trailed off. "No. You imagine too much." Adrian laughed. Jennifer made an offended face when the situation fit into her tiny fear gripped corner of her brain. "How cute!!" Adrian thought. He had came inside the room to actually lecture Jennifer about the possible consequences of what she did just now but then what she did changed the entire mood of the conversation.
Just when Adrian was about to melt under the love of Jennifer, his heard his own voice in his mind, "We have to break her. That's the only way." And he stiffened again. Why was it so difficult to just show her love. Make her feel protected. Embrace her. Acknowledge her as the most beautiful thing that ever happened to him. Why was it so damn hard… what the hell, universe!!
"Come here." Adrian's strict tone was back. Jennifer just obliged. She had nearly escaped a situation and she was not inclined to bring that back. She came and sat near him. Just as the bedsheet came into contact with her skin, she hissed. She didn't realize that her left leg was swollen by now due to falling off the bed. The skin had turned reddish. Adrian noticed it immediately. "Oh my god! You injured yourself. Wait. Stay here. Let me get an ice pack." He got up from the bed but Jennifer held his arm.
"I fell off the bed, evading you. First come and explain what you were going to do. Only then will I accept it." She said. Adrian sighed. "I was angry that you sat next to that narcissistic, excuse of a person." He mumbled with anger and worry taking its turns to be in his tone. "You hurt me. I hurt you back. It's fair." Jennifer shrugged. Adrian lost patience at this point. She did all this to hurt him. "Do you even understand what you did? You sat with the only person who has ruined my life completely. Is the reason of my anguish on daily basis. Replaced my very loved mother in the eyes of the world. Is a gold digger and is cheating my dad behind his back. Do you even know how much I hate her? Don't you see it in my eyes when I look at her? Are you serious? I just can't believe the amount of stupidity you would do just to hurt me. If you wanted to hurt you could've just hurt me, like physically but Crystal? Seriously!!"
