Chapter 9

When the press conference ended, it was very late at night. Ronaim was exhausted and went back to her room with the help of Sean. She was covered in egg and vegetable all over her body, so as soon as she entered the room she got into the bathroom. She lay in the bathtub, closed her eyes, waited for the tiredness to be alleviated by the hot water. When she came out of the bathroom, there was one person in her room. He closed his eyes and seemed to be asleep. His hard silhouette was softened by the dim light. Ronaim's heart lurched, and she walked over to him slowly in her bath towel. She reached out her hand and put it on Nathan's eyes, stroked him gently, her heart filled with love for him. She worked so hard for seven years to marry him. How could she be willing to divorce him? "What are you doing?" Nathan suddenly opened his eyes and raised his hand to shove away Ronaim's hand that rested on his face. He spoke with contempt, "Bi*ch, we're getting divorced! Stop being so sickening!" After saying that, he threw the stack of paper of the divorce agreement onto the table. "Sign it." "Do you hate me so much? Do you have to divorce me?" Ronaim asked, clinging to the last hope in her heart. "Didn't you just admit it yourself? Now the whole world knows. You are the other woman. You broke my relationship with Karen. Now it's time for you to step aside." Nathan said impatient. "No. If you loved Karen three years ago, why do you have to wait for three years to marry her?" Ronaim sneered. "Tell me the truth. Why did you marry me then? If you don't tell me the truth, how could I give up the hope? You can't divorce me if I don't agree." The screeching brake, scarlet blood, his dying sister...These pictures flashed through Nathan's mind. He suddenly reached out his hands with malicious fury, clutched Ronaim's pale neck. "You are still pretending to be innocent? Ten years ago, you killed my sister. How dare you!" It was a bolt out of the blue. How could she not know about it? "It's you! You pushed my sister to the car!" Nathan added more strength on his hands and his eyes were full of hatred. "You think I married you because I love you? You are ridiculous! I married you in order to revenge you, to torture you for the rest of your life! It is just that now I found that you b*tch is not worthy of wasting my life! " Ronaim was choked to breathless. She searched desperately in her half unconscious mind in vain for any trace of memory. She almost passed out for lack of oxygen. And she coughed fiercely and struggled to frame her words. "Uh...I didn't do it. How could I have killed your sister..." "I saw it with my own eyes!" Nathan's eyes now were glowing with bloodthirsty light, as if he was going to strangle Ronaim in any minute. Outside the door of the room, Karen was petrified and stood there unable to move. Blood rushed to her head. She remembered that scene, a blood-soaked girl lying there...They were fighting, and then the girl turned back and rushed to the middle of the road. A truck screeched to a halt...Karen was shaking like a leaf in the wind. Everyone thought it was an accident. Only she knew that she killed Nathan's sister. But why was Ronaim made the scapegoat for her? Karen soon woke up from her memory and sneered. Since Ronaim was made the scapegoat, then let her carry it for her whole life. She kicked the door and broke in, screaming, "Nathan, stop, you're going to strangle her!" Nathan sobered up and let go of Ronaim blankly. "Ouch…" Ronaim fell to the ground, putting her hand on her chest and coughed ceaselessly, trying to take in the fresh air, as if she just escaped from hell. While she was glad that she survived, she felt a cramp in her lower abdomen and some warm fluid flew out of her lower body. "Nathan, help me...help..."Ronaim grabbed Nathan's pants in a panic and said. Nathan kicked Ronaim off. "Don't touch me, or I will kill you!"
