Chapter 186: Chapter 186: Crying herself into unconsciousness (32)
Translator: 549690339
But for some reason, she felt the pain today was increasingly unbearable.
She wanted to think about other things to distract herself, but she could no longer, as before, console herself with the thought of bearing a child and marrying him.
All her hopes had been shattered by him.
In her mind, all she could think of was his cold, mocking words, and his disgust and rejection of her.
In the end, Ruby Gregory couldn’t tell if it was her body that hurt, or her heart.
She felt the pain reach her utmost limit of endurance, her face gradually turning pale. Finally, unable to bear it, she let out a soft cry: “It hurts!”
During their intimate moments, she had never made a sound, not even a moan or gasp. But now, suddenly, a faint noise escaped her lips, and Steve Burton froze instantly.
It all seemed like an illusion.
Steve paused for a moment, then continued forcefully. Ruby frowned, but made no sound.
It must have been his imagination!
Steve sneered and increased his force. Ruby moaned again: “It hurts…”
“You can feel pain now? Weren’t you always numb to it?” Steve sarcastically remarked without any thought, not stopping this time. Ruby felt more and more pain, and in the end, her eyes turned red. She cried out repeatedly: “It hurts, it hurts…”
Before the last “it hurts” had settled, tears suddenly spilled from the corner of
Ruby’s eyes.
She knew he didn’t like to see her cry in front of him.
So she tried her best to hold back her tears.
But the more she tried, the more wronged she felt.
She thought of how she had been living such a terrible life for a while now, how her Mom looked at her with pain in her eyes, saying she had disappointed them greatly. She thought of Olivia Foster’s account of her parents’ sorrow and of the last birth control pill Steve had given her…
Steve slowly stopped, and the pain inside her gradually eased. But her tears still wouldn’t stop.
Steve stared at her tear-streaked face and said tensely, “Don’t cry.”
His command, in those three words, not only failed to stop Ruby’s tears but instead caused her to suddenly break down like a dam bursting, and she burst into loud sobs.
All this time, she had been holding back her tears, enduring, enduring, gritting her teeth. But now, she couldn’t help it anymore.
She closed her eyes, not caring how unhappy the man in front of her might be, and just cried her heart out, as if she wanted to cry out all her tears in one go.
