Chapter 176 - Into the woods (1/2)

Hearing that, Camille exploded in anger. She can no longer hold it, her hand lifted in the air and threw a slap on Daniella's cheek.

But it was not enough. Her clenching hands lifted once again to grab Daniella's hair but she dodged it so she grabbed her shirt and tore it apart until it showed her bra.

Evan pulled Camille immediately and as he did, Camille tore the rest of Daniella's shirt until it revealed her stomach.

”You bitch! What have I done-” her lips froze when her eyes noticed the scars on Daniella's chest.

Camille's eyes swelled in shock. From Daniella's neck bone to her cleavage, there were too many scars that it made her looked like a doll that had been stitched into pieces.

”Oh God! Your body!” surprise has made her voice shaky, ”you look so disgusting!” she blurted and took a step back.

Turning to Evan, she continued, ”how can you look at that! I mean that's sickening,” she said pointing at Daniella's stomach which had a huge and thick scar.

Ken stiffened staring at Daniella while Evan tried to stop her from leaving.

Standing in the hallway with shock on their faces, Ken and Camille looked at each other.

”Did you see that?” Camille said with disgust, ”her body is so ugly.”

Ken blinked, without saying a word he rushed to her and threw a slap on her cheek causing Camille to fall. He didn't know what's happening to him, his hand moved by itself and just slapped her without considering that she's a woman.

”You didn't need to say that!” he squatted next and pressed both hands on her neck, choking her angrily, ”she's not ugly, you are ugly” he continued and watched Camille as she tried to remove his hand from her throat, ”now, get your things and get the f*ck out of here before I get more men and have them rape you for real.”

With a dark face, Ken got up and walked past her.

He caught Evan standing by the door, one hand was on his temples massaging it gently.

”What happened?” he asked as he stood beside him.

”She said she will come back,” Evan replied.

Ken shook his head, ”whatever. Why didn't you throw that woman out of the villa?” he asked.

Evan sighed, ”Selena asked me to let her stay here and we can't say no to her.”

”Should I kill her?” he asked.

Evan with brows creasing deeply shook his head.

Ken stared at Evan for so long, he still could not understand how can he let Camille stay. He considered himself weird but if he was in Evan's shoes, he will kick Camille out of his house the second she set a foot inside.

”I will leave now.”

When Ken left, Selena's voice sounded from behind.

”Uncle Evan, what happened to Daniella? Her body, it was like,” her voice broke down unsure how to continue.

”It's nothing, forget that you saw it,” he said and pulled her to embrace, ”call Anders and tell him to come back.”

Selena nodded and went upstairs still confuse. She didn't see the whole scene only the time where Camille stripped Daniella's clothes and said those words.

Meanwhile.

Daniella ran into the woods. She was breathing hard as she halted next to the tree and rested a hand on it while the other lay on her chest.

She squatted down to the floor, brushed both hands over her face.

Camille's voice and the way she looked at her, that was the same look James had on his face when she showed him her real body. Without knowing, tears had run down from her eyes.

Soon footsteps sounded. Daniella wiped her tears.

”Babe, I am alright, I just need-” she stopped when she turned and found Ken staring at her back. She was still in her ripped clothes which now showed the scars in her back.

”Please leave me alone,” she said and got up.

Instead of leaving, Ken removed his shirt. Daniella gulped hard; it was indeed normal for a man to give his shirt if ever a woman needed one.

But Ken didn't give her his shirt, instead, he turned around. When her eyes noticed his back Daniella's lips parted in a surprise.

There were also scars in his back but unlike her, they were thin but deep. And by the looked of it, it came from a whip.

”My father used to hit me with his golf stick whenever I did something he didn't like,” he started and then walked closer to her. He sat down to the ground and leaned his back on the tree she was standing next to.

He elevated his head to look at her while his hand patted the space next to him, asking her to sit down.

Daniella sat down obediently. She leaned her head on his shoulder and blew a harsh breath.

”Was it painful?” she asked.

Ken shrugged his shoulders, ”I don't remember,” he slightly turned to look at her but only could see her hair, ”was it painful?”

Daniella nodded her head, then she moved her head away from leaning on his shoulder and met his eyes.

The way his grey irises glowed, it was so peaceful just like the calmness of the surrounding.
