Chapter 270 - Acceptance (Part-4) (2/2)

She would never reveal her weakness in front of anyone. Even Mo Jiang had to put in many efforts to get information about her past, otherwise, no one would get the information about her past easily as she had killed every man who had violated her, and now he was telling her to go to a therapist to reveal her past on her own.

No!

Never!

Mo Jiang understood her worries, so he held onto her hands and calmly explained it to her. ”Don't worry, she is my friend. She wouldn't reveal anything to anyone. You can trust her.”

”No!” Liu Juan retreated her hands back.

”Then do whatever you want to do! But let me remind you, that you are making me suffer with you!”

”Then let's get a divorce!” Liu Juan snapped in anger.

”Liu Juan!” Mo Jiang roared hearing her words. ”Marriage is not a joke.”

”So is my past.” Liu Juan said and her eyes gleamed with tears.

It wasn't that she hadn't thought of going to a therapist before but she was not willing to take a risk. Once she opened her old wound, it would hurt her a lot and there was no guarantee that she would be able to overcome her past. What if the treatment went unsuccessful and would affect her current life so badly that whatever confidence she had would be gone; that she would never have the courage to stand up again?

”That's why I want to help you.” Mo Jiang tried to control his anger and convince her.

”I can't.” Liu Juan shook her head and stepped back. Her past was that black dark scar that she neither exposed to the world nor did she dare to treat it. It was a rotting wound hidden in the darkness, silently shaving away at her heart while spreading its poison all over her soul.

”Fine. I won't force you but remember, you are my wife, Liu Juan. I will never hurt you, never. At least, trust me. Rest is up to you.” Mo Jiang said and went back to make breakfast.

Therefore, the discussion between the couple ended on a bad note.

”Ding…Ding…”

Mo Jiang was driving the car when his phone rang.

”Hello?” Mo Jiang answered the call.

”Where are you? I am waiting for you.” A sweet voice came from the other side.

”She has rejected the idea of therapy.” Mo Jiang replied.

”Hmmm…I told you. People don't look at therapists in a good way.” The girl said.

”Okay, let's wait. We can't force her. Once she is ready, I will bring her to you.”

”Alright. By the way, you can even tell me about her situation. I can help her indirectly. Why don't we meet up for dinner?” The girl asked in expectation.

”I am busy, I can't come and I prefer Juan to be the one to tell you everything about her. Also, I hope you remember, not a word goes out about her. Otherwise…” Mo Jiang said in a warning tone.

”I know…I know. Don't worry, this is my business and I don't let patients down and you are the special one. No one will know that she came to me. Besides, I love my life.”

”Good that you know.” Mo Jiang said and hung up.

***

After that, things in Liu Juan and Mo Jiang's life went back to normal just like how they lived before their marriage.

Mo Jiang neither forced her to stay in his room nor did he talk about going to a therapist.

However, Liu Juan's nightmares didn't leave.

She was having many sleepless nights and in the end, she didn't want to take it anymore. So, she asked Mo Jiang to sleep with her in her room.

”No.” And Mo Jiang rejected her request.
