Love Together, Be With You Never

Chapter 53 Three of Us Shared Same Bed

"Marlon, here you are!" Alicia smiled as she came in and reached out to take Marlon's hand. However,

Marlon pretended not to see her and dodged her hand. Alicia's smile turned awkward for an instant, but

then she managed to shake it off.

"Marlon, it's so late. Mr. Charles and Rachael need to rest. Come back with me!" Alicia once again

reached out for Marlon's hand.

"I'll sleep here tonight!" Marlon said coldly and pushed away her hand, saying sternly, "You go to sleep

yourself!"

Alicia's smile finally froze, but Marlon looked away from her. Then she ran out with a long face.

I should be happy to see this. I had only seen Marlon doting on her. But just now, Marlon snubbed her

for the first time. I only felt sorrow and no joy.

"I'm going to take a shower!" I said to Kieran and went into the bathroom.

The cold water trickled down on me, but I couldn't feel its chilliness. What happened in the garden

played back in my head over and over again, turning my heart to ice. I thought I would cry, but my eyes

were dry.

Perhaps, I had known the answer long ago, but I just wouldn't face it, so that when I heard it with my

own ears, I wouldn't be devastated.

Alicia said everyone could tell that I loved Marlon from the way I looked at him. So, how could a smart

man like Marlon not notice it after spending four years with me?

It was just I had been deceiving myself, assuming that as long as Marlon didn't expose my crappy lies,

I could stay with him. How pathetic!

Nonetheless, he told the truth after all!

Alright. At least I could stop lying to myself and finally be free, because there was no reason to hold on

to him anymore.

Marlon, from now on, I was done loving you.

From this point onward, I would pay you, the Cornells, and Alicia back with the cruel pain you inflicted

on me. I would take back my dignity and kept my head high in front of you.

Because I no longer loved you!

The cold water flowed down and I smiled at myself.

I stopped thinking about that and wanted to blow my hair dry. However, I couldn't find a hairdryer in the

bathroom, so I walked out of the bathroom with wet hair to look for it. Although I had wiped my hair with

a dry towel, water was still dripping down from my neck and into my collar. Marlon's eyes darkened

when he saw me. Squinting, he said coldly, "Rachael, as a woman, you have no shame. You actually

left the bathroom like this!"

I pretended not to hear him and kept looking for hairdryer. I had heard such hurtful words from him

countless times, so I was already numb to them. Besides, my pajamas were conservative, and even

my arms weren't exposed. Did he want me to wrap myself in quilts in summer?

Moreover, I was innocent, so I didn't fear his accusation.

"Mr. Redford, Rachael can wear whatever she wants in her room, and I hope she is wearing less

clothes!" Kieran smiled happily and said, "She is just covering her skin because there is an outsider in

our room!"

"When she was with me, she was always naked!" Marlon stood up and smiled at Kieran.

...

I slapped Marlon's face. Marlon glared at me and admonished, "You dare to hit me!"

I looked up and glared back at him. "Marlon, please keep your mouth clean!"

Marlon grabbed my chin with a jerk and forcefully pulled me to him. "What do you mean? Rachael, did I

say anything wrong? When you were with me, you never wore anything in the bedroom, in the living

room, and in every corner of the house!"

"Marlon!" I shrieked.

But Marlon smiled cruelly at me. "You used to take off your own clothes for me!" Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Heart-wrenching anger was burning and devouring me. For the first time, I wanted to cover Marlon's

mouth and tear my silly past apart.

"Don't be mad, Rachael!" Suddenly, Kieran pulled me back into his embrace. He caressed me with one

hand and smiled, "Don't worry. I won't be angry with you because of other people's words. I said I

would love you for the rest of my life. So, no matter what happens, I will be there for you!"

I looked up at Kieran in surprise. His affectionate eyes made it difficult for me to tell if he was lying. I

forgot this was an act.

"Mr. Redford, no matter what you did with Rachael, it's all over. Rachael has started over with me. I

think you should cherish your fiancée instead. Am I right?" Kieran said seriously to Marlon in a cold

tone.

However, Marlon gazed at Kieran and me with contempt and ridicule. "Of course Alicia and I will be

fine. I am curious how long your adorable play will last. I am looking forward to its ending!"

Kieran only said, "Suit yourself!"

There was coldness about Kieran. He felt like winter, and his power was everlasting. My anger was

driven away by him. I calmed down and realized Marlon was just trying to get under Kieran's skin, and

he hated for his used goods to be touched by someone else. It was like two kids fighting over a toy.

Why should I feel angry about that? Besides, Marlon had said things that were even more outrageous.

This was nothing!

‘Rachael, don't you lose your temper this easily again. If Kieran's plan got ruined because of you, you

couldn't afford the consequences!’

I collected myself but felt somewhat tired. I didn't have the energy to do this with them anymore, so I

gently said to Kieran, "Kieran, I'm sleepy. I'm going to sleep!"

"Alright!" Kieran touched my head and allowed me to crawl into bed. I was naturally pleased and

quickly went to sleep. However, the minute I lay down, Kieran lay down beside me and said, "I'll sleep

with you!"

I was dumbfounded.

I had thought Kieran and Marlon would fight all night, but Kieran chose me over the intense fun.

"I'm also sleepy!" As soon as Kieran finished speaking, Marlon stepped onto the bed and squeezed

into the small gap between Kieran and me.
