Chapter 20: Chapter 20

<Azaria>

I lifted my gaze.

I saw Lanvin, wearing different clothes.

Where did he come from?

Why is he coming home just now?

Camille was about to kiss Nick on the cheek, but Nick avoided her and approached me.

Before Nick could get close to me, I left.

"Wife," Nick pulled me gently.

He didn't pay attention to Camille.

I couldn't look at Nick. I didn't know what to say to him after our argument last night.

"Have you eaten?" His voice was deep, and he sounded concerned.

Why do I feel so fragile? Just hearing his voice makes me want to cry.

"Wait! What's going on between the two of you?" Camille inquired as she approached us.

"Lanvin, are you cheating on me?" Camille blurted out.

They're in a relationship? Since when?

As usual, Nick ignored her and looked only at me.

"And why did you call her your wife?" Camille asked with irritation, as if she already reached a conclusion.

"Let's eat together," Nick pulled me gently. I allowed him to lead me.

Camille seemed like a gust of wind, trying to be noticed.

"Aren't you going to invite me for lunch, Lanvin? I haven't eaten lunch, and I was about to invite you outside," Camille pretended to speak casually, but no one paid attention to her.

"Lanvin!" Camille shouted in annoyance, calling his name.

I rolled my eyes at her attempt to be noticed.

"Okay, I'll just eat here," Camille said with a hint of arrogance as she invited herself.

I dislike that woman. She's my rival in everything.

Nick serves me.

"Lanvin, won't you put some food on my plate?" Camille asked with a cutesy tone.

"You invited yourself. Besides, you have your hand, serve yourself," Nick replied rudely to her. I couldn't help but smile.

Nick moved closer to me, giving me all his attention. He looked at me instead of staring at Camille's ample cleavage.

I gave Camille a condescending look while she glared at me.

"Nick, I want water," I mimicked Camille's fake voice. Nick raised an eyebrow but quickly dismissed it.

"Can you buy me a durian later?" I asked again.

"Why? Are you having cravings?" Lanvin innocently asked.

"Yes!" I jokingly replied.

"Silly, we haven't consummated our marriage, but I'll buy you one later. You're craving because of your period."

Camille couldn't take it anymore and walked out, but we didn't pay her any attention. I smiled to myself. I won!

Sometimes you have to be a devil, being nice is unattractive.

"I'll be going out later with Hailey," I said, seeking his permission. I didn't know why I was asking for his permission. Maybe as a sign of respect? He mentioned yesterday that I don't respect him.

"No, no one is leaving the house," he said firmly. His tone was intimidating.

I froze as his expression changed.

"From this day, you're not allowed to go out without my permission. Without me by your side," he said menacingly, and his eyes darkened. His fist clenched tightly.

I felt fear in his display now, as if he transformed into someone else. But he was still human.

“I don’t care about your permission. I’ll go out whenever I like,” I said firmly. I fight my fear of him.

He let go of the utensils he was holding, creating a loud sound. I recoiled in fear.

He's scary but he doesn't look like a ghost.

Nick gave me dangerous look. His eyes were glazed over and the veins in his hand were sticking out because his fist was clenched so tightly.

Will he hurt me?

"I said that you're not allowed to go out! You are not allowed!” He shouted to get me away from him.

"You're scaring me!" I was scared and shouted at him to get further away from him.

"I don't care about your opinion! I'll leave even if you don't want to! I do not care about you! You don't own me to forbid me to leave!” I yelled at him and he didn't like what I said.

"One more hateful words Azaria, you wouldn't like what will happen!" He threatened me while still looking bad.

What is wrong with this man?

This man is really hiding something, I'm right that I don't like him. He is hiding his true identity because he has dark motives.

"Xyla!" He angrily called the maid while looking at me.

"S-sir?" Xyla asked him trembling.

Anyone who sees Nick now will be horrified.

"Bring Azaria to our room and lock the door. Don't let her get out,” Nick ordered sharply while not taking his eyes off me.

"S-sir?" Xyla repeated.

“Now!” Nick shouted to make Xyla jump in shock.

"Nick?! You are crazy! Try to come near me and I will fire you!” I threatened Xyla.

"Ma'am, I'm sorry but come with me quietly so you won't get hurt," Xyla said to me in fear as she approached.

Before he could get close to me, I quickly ran.

"Azariah!" Nick shouted loudly, his voice booming.

"Let go of me!" I hadn't gone far when he caught me and I suddenly felt scared when he grabbed me. It's like de ja vu.

"Let go of me! You are a monster! Let go of me! I don't like you! I hate you!” I screamed as he carried me into our room.

He was so serious that he would lock me in the room.

He threw me on the bed as we entered the room and locked the door.

"You wouldn't leave this room until I say so," he said threateningly to me as his eyes flashed.

I haven't replied when he left and I heard the door being locked outside. I approached the door, "You, demon! Open this damn door!” I shouted as I tried to open the door.

It's this man.

"You are a shameless man! Open this door!” I shouted and was banging on the door.

"That's your punishment for cheating on me!" He shouted.

The next thing I heard were the footsteps of his feet.

"Moron! Come back here! Open the door, you're crazy!” I screamed.

I will not cry today because Lanvin is not dead.

That skinny guy! What does he think of me, dog?! My husband lock me in our room.

I won't let him be the one to follow us. I looked for a way to escape the room, and thought of going through the window.

The stress will kill you, Nick.

I knotted the blankets so I could get down. I was halfway down when a guard saw me.

"Ma'am?! What are you doing there?" The guard asked me in shock.

I closed my eyes when he called a friend.

"Ma'am is committing suicide! Call sir!”

Hey, life is like life.

The next thing I heard and saw was Nick looking at me.

"What the fuck?!"

**

I was sitting on the bed with Nick looking angry.

"What are you thinking, huh?!" He shouted at me while clenching his fist. I'm not afraid of him.

I did not answer his question to me.

"What if something happened to you there?! What if you fall?! Are you thinking, Azaria? Huh!” He shouted. Her veins popped out of her neck because of her yelling at me.

I bow down.

The door is open. If I run fast I can get out. What about the guards? Ah, I will trample them one by one.

"I was fucking worried when I saw you!"

"Damn it! Why are you not listening to m-”

He couldn't finish what he was going to say when I ran fast.

"Azariah!" He called out to me and before I could get away from him he grabbed my hand.

Why did he act so fast?

It's like he knows what I'm going to do.

"Asshole! Let go of me!" I struggle and try to break his grip on me.

"Are you really angry with me? Huh!” He shouted loudly and held me tightly in both hands. His vision darkened. I swallowed because he looked like he was about to kill.

I'm not afraid of him.

"You're scaring me! I don't want to be here! Let me go!” I screamed and tried to pull my hand back.

"No one leaves the house!" He shouted back and his jaw tightened.

What is his problem?

"I'm not your pet so you can lock me up here! I have my own life!”

We are already shouting.

This man makes me angry.

"Shall I let you go? Fuck! You're fucking mine!” He said like he was going crazy.

His line is scratched. Is there anything new?

"I'm not yours! We only got married for convenience! I won't fucking love you!” I screamed at the look on his face. I want to hurt him, I want him to die from the pain I will make him feel.

I didn't cheat because I didn't love him.

"No one leaves the house," he said without emotion.

He let go and locked the door.

"I'll watch you," he said while calling someone on the phone.

In my annoyance I threw a pillow at him, "fuck you! You're going to die!” I said angrily to him.
