Chapter38
“Did you fucking fight me for a wild man?”
Roderick’s voice had changed, he had one knee pressing down on Andrea’s thigh, one hand holding her wrists above her head, and the other hand trying to grab the phone she was tightly holding onto.
Andrea thrashed around like a fish out of water, with her hair sticking to her sweaty face.
Seeing Roderick’s fingers about to touch the phone, she suddenly lowered her head and bit him on the wrist.
“Hiss-”
Roderick let go in pain, Andrea took the opportunity to break free and rushed into the bathroom.
Her lips were stained with his blood, the taste of rust spreading in her mouth.
The moment the bathroom door was slammed shut, Roderick’s fist smashed into the door, making the glass buzz.
Andrea trembled as she locked the door, then collapsed to the tiled floor.
“Open the door, Andie.”
Roderick’s voice came through the door, calm as can be, “Let’s have a chat.”
Andrea held her phone tightly to her chest, her forehead resting on the

cold edge of the bathtub.
She couldn’t let him see the chat history on her phone, couldn’t let him know she was going to marry another man.
“There’s nothing to talk about.”
She tried to keep her voice steady, “You go out, I’m going to take a shower.”
There were a few seconds of silence outside the door, then Roderick’s low chuckle: “You think you can hide forever?”
His voice suddenly got closer, as if he was leaning against the door, “Every corner of this house is mine, including you.”
Andrea bit her fist to stop herself from crying out loud.
She heard Roderick’s footsteps fading away, then the sound of the bedroom door closing.
But she knew it was far from over.
Roderick had a small silver key on his keychain that could open all the doors in his house.
She opened her phone with trembling fingers, quickly deleted all the chat records with her mother and Lucian.
The bloodstains on the screen made the touch screen unresponsive, so she had to wipe it with the hem of her clothes.
That was Roderick’s blood, she just bit too hard.
There was a loud crash outside the door, followed by the sound of glass shattering.

Andrea got so scared that she shivered, and her phone fell to the ground.
Roderick was smashing things.
This is the first time she has seen him lose control to this extent since she met him.
“I will find him.”
Roderick’s voice came from afar, like he was talking to himself, and also like he was declaring. “Anyone who dares to touch me. I want them to wish they were dead.”
Andrea curled up in the bathtub, her teeth chattering uncontrollably.
She knew Roderick too well, this statement is definitely not an exaggeration.
If he found out about the marriage, he might just go straight to the family and kill them.
The bathroom exhaust fan was buzzing softly, Andrea stared at her blurry reflection on the tiles.
The woman in the mirror had messy hair, blood at the corner of her mouth, and eyes that were shining frighteningly
She suddenly realized that her eyes at that moment bore a resemblance to Roderick’s, a kind of fierce determination when pushed to the limit.
Outside the door, Roderick stood in the mess, blood dripping from his fingers onto the shattered frame, with cracks running across the smiling faces of the two people.
He stared at the bloodstain for a while, then suddenly started laughing.
“No problem.”
