Chapter 4 Slap
Chapter 4 Slap
Damon POV
Tiffany and I talked for a while, and my gloomy mood became a little better. Then I went out of the room
to get some ice water downstairs, but I saw a small figure standing alone in the darkness at the Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
window.
Why is she standing here? Is she trying to seduce me by pretending to be pathetic?
I took a big step and turned on the light in the room, and the strong light came on in the dark room.
Sofia raised her arm to shield her eyes from the direct light and took a step back when she saw me
standing in front of her, "Mr. Rubinstein? Why ...... are you here?"
"Are you pretending to stand here unintentionally to get my attention?" I said in a mocking tone, "Your
father is a piece of trash who only gambles with money. He used the money you made a deal with me
to impress his woman, and used it to raise your brother. He doesnt care about you, or he wouldnt have
sold you to me. You really are family."
My implication was that she and her father were the same type of people, the kind of people who would
throw away their self-respect for money!
"Shut up! My father is not that type of person, he loves me very much and I ......" she retorted back to
me excitedly. The expression on her face looked very embarrassed because I had directly poked at her
family situation.
"Well, take it easy, what I said is the truth. If you dont believe me you can ask your father! Ive looked
into it and youre a special student in school. If you dont want to get into trouble, get out of here as soon
as the baby is born. I dont want my lover to see you."
I knew my words would hurt her, but I never hid my attitude when dealing with a woman like Sofia.
Sofia opened her eyes wide, her eyelashes resting like butterflies above her eyes. I looked at her face
up close and found that her skin was fair, her lips were red and full, and her pretty face looked like an
angel. I had to admit that she was indeed a rare beauty.
"I dont want this baby, I just want to go to school." Tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes, and
her voice was trembling.
"You cant decide this matter. You were the one who made the decision to sell your body in the first
place, then you will have to bear the consequences of this matter accordingly. Didnt your father teach
you to take responsibility?"
It was cruel to say such things to an eighteen-year-old girl, but to a woman who sold her body for
money, I didnt feel that my words were excessive at all.
I sneered, "What? Do you regret after getting the money?"
Sofia POV
Damons insulting words made me feel even more ashamed of what I had done. He made me realize
that I was such a vile and dirty woman, and I felt more pain for it.
If my dad hadnt been kidnapped I never would have done such a thing. But my dad only cared about
money and didnt care about me, and now he has a new family. I think of my heartless dad and my
dead mom and I feel like Im the one person my family doesnt need! I dont have a family that loves me
no matter what I do!
"Please! Please stop! Dont say it ......" I collapsed on the floor and cried out in pain.
The world was actually being so cruel to me.
"You need to stop acting pathetic!" Damon lifted me up like a chicken. "If you didnt get pregnant
because of me, I never want to see you again in this life!"
My body kept trembling and tears seemed to secrete from my tear ducts in a never-ending stream and
fall to the ground. Thats when Damon suddenly leaned down and lifted my chin up.
"Gash! Do you only seduce men with that look?" He murmured, then leaned down and kissed me!
Damons lips were so hot that I tasted the saltiness of tears and the taste of cigarettes in the kiss.
My eyes were wide open and his lashes were almost pressed to mine! My breath and oxygen were all
taken from me by him. I felt like I couldnt breathe, and with all the humiliating things Damon had just
said about me. I started to struggle!
"You ...... let go! Let go of me!"
But my strength was completely no match for a man who was already a grown man, and I couldnt push
him at all.
He continued to kiss me, even prying open my teeth and penetrating my mouth.
The memory of our sex that night entered my mind. I struggled in pain and reached out and slapped
Damon hard before he could react.
Damon let go of me, a dangerous look in his eyes, and he grabbed my arm, "You hit me?"
I was shocked, I didnt know why I had hit him, he had forced me to do what I did. But why did he kiss
me when he was obviously disgusted with me?
Panic made me I quickly pulled mine back from his hands.
Leave! Im getting out of here!
I ran out of the room with Damon angrily following me. I tried to stop him from chasing me so I pushed
down on the door in a hurry and then I heard him groan in pain.
I saw blood appear on the floor, which I thought was my blood, but I realized I had no wounds on me.
I turned my head and then noticed Damons arm was wedged in the doorway.
I hurriedly opened the door. In the glaring light, Damons face was pale. His arm was bleeding a lot
because of the cut from the door crush.
"Sofia! I wont let you go easily!" He threatened me, holding his injured arm.
After a while, the maid and the bodyguard rushed over to take Damon to the hospital quickly, and I
heard that Monica also rushed to the hospital. After that, I dont know if it was because of exhaustion or
something else, my eyes suddenly became dark and then I lost consciousness.
When I came to my senses again, I found that no one was at my side. I was lying on the bed,
everything around me was white, and the room smelled like sterile water. I guessed I was probably
staying in the hospital.
The doctor entered my room after I woke up, and he checked my body and said to me, "You are too
weak, because of the chronic malnutrition combined with the shock so it caused your coma."
I nodded mechanically and then touched my stomach.
The doctor understood what I meant, "The baby is healthy, but your body needs serious tending."
After the doctor left, Monica entered my ward and she brought me fruit. I struggled to sit up, "Im sorry,
Monica, its all my fault, I ......"
Monica slapped me straight across the face.
I covered my cheek and looked blankly at Monica, who was looking at me with anger and resentment.
I thought that if I explained, someone as kind as Monica would surely understand my actions.
"I was only nice to you for the sake of the baby in your womb, but how dare you hurt Damon by virtue
of that!" exclaimed Monica.
"How is he ...... his injury?" I had tears remaining in my eyes.
I shouldnt have gotten my hopes up for Monica, after all Damon was her son and I was just a pathetic
wretch that no one needed!
"He almost lost his arm! I hope you better remember this lesson and not hurt him again, or I wont show
you mercy!"
I nodded sadly.
I regret that I didnt think things through, I regret that I didnt take my birth control pills after I made love
to Damon. Everything that happened today was because I made the wrong decision.
"Youre lucky to have children for the Rubinstein family, and I hope youd better not do something like
today!"
I felt sad for myself that I was nothing more than a procreation machine for this big family.
At first, I actually naively thought Monica was being so gentle because she was sympathetic to what I
was going through... how silly of me!
"These are the fruits I bought. Its not for you, its for Damons baby! If something goes wrong with the
baby, I wont spare you!" Monica turned around and left after she said that.
Her words made me think that if Damon didnt get me pregnant, then my life wasnt worth a damn in her
eyes!
Hearing Monica say that Damon almost lost his arm made me feel guilty. But the thought of Damon
treating me so roughly made my heart rise again with anger.
I wanted to go outside for some fresh air, but found two bouncers at the door who reached out to stop
me.
"I want to go for a walk." I said.
"Ms. Rittel, you are not allowed to leave this room until you are discharged." The bouncer said this to
me.
"Why? What gives you the right to restrict my personal freedom? Why wont you let me out?" I shouted
angrily.
"We are only following Ms. Rubinsteins orders!"
I struggled to get out, only to be picked up by two bodyguards and placed on the hospital bed.
"Ms. Rittel, you better calm down and try to get out of the hospital early. Otherwise you cant walk out of
this room." The bodyguards said to me with expressionless faces.
I became hysterical.
Why? Why did they treat me like this? I didnt do anything wrong! I just didnt want to give birth to a child
that I shouldnt have! Was it a mistake to make sacrifices for my family?
I made a deal with Damon Rubinstein for my dad. But now I was abandoned by my father and treated
unfairly by the Rubinstein family!
I covered my head with the blanket and started to cry.
I couldnt think of anything else I could do but cry. The successive blows had made me mature.
I now realized that there was no one I could trust in this world. Men are unreliable!
