Chapter 27 Raphael's anger
(Lena's POV)
I saw the screen behind Rafael.
With everyone watching, the screen suddenly flashed and I saw a man and a woman appear on that screen, their naked bodies entwined.
My heart suddenly beat faster and for some reason, I had a bad feeling.
Soon, my thoughts were confirmed.
There were murmurs all around, and I didn't turn red from shame, or that such a scene was too fragrant, then.
The image in front of the eyes suddenly moved, but anyone who is not stupid can know what they are doing.
Raphael looked back, and after seeing the image on the screen, his face became very ugly for a moment. However, I do not feel this anger just because it exists.
Raphael looked over at me, and his gaze suddenly pierced me, and I couldn't quite figure out what her gaze meant.
But he withdrew his hand and stopped even giving me a look.
My heart suddenly stung, not just because of what was happening in front of me, but more so because of Raphael's attitude.
The video was still playing and the moans filled the auditorium. My face grew pale as, as the camera panned up, the woman's face was revealed.
I understand that this matter has nothing to do with me. However, the face of the woman exposed to the camera, even if very blurry, has a few similarities to me. Especially the pair of purple eyes.
I shook my head and looked over at Raphael. Rafael simply looked at me and did not say a word to me.
It was like I understood the way Rafael looked at me just now. It was like, it was like he already knew it was me in there.
"Raphael, did you marry a whore?" I suddenly heard someone shout this.
The woman's voice was sarcastic and mean, and when you listened carefully, you could hear a bit of anger. I turned my head to look behind me at the visitor and shook my head gently, looking for the person who had just uttered those words.
However, I did not find it. Because the murmuring and questioning were getting louder, I could hear among them, some in a watching tone, while others were very angry.
And now, no one can come and save me from it. Even I, myself, don't know what I should do.
Whore, bitch ...... Such name-calling almost swallows me up.
Runaway, Lena, now. What's the point of staying here if Rafael won't even stop you?
"Lena Lester," I saw a figure stand up in the crowd and Rachel looked at me coldly with a stern face, "can you explain who the person in the video is?" I felt like I couldn't breathe anymore, and in the noise, I could hear my helpless defensive voice: "No, that's not true, that person wasn't me."
However, no one else can hear it.
"Talking about evidence, Lester, I think the video in front of you should already be considered a kind of evidence, right?" Rachel snorted coldly, then, she looked at Rafael.
"Raphael, I told you a long time ago that this woman is not at all completely in love with you, and even if she wants your money now, I'm afraid you can't marry such an unclean woman, right?"
The guests' talk was guided by Rachel, and I suddenly realized how weak I was.
"But I don't even know who the person in the video is!" My voice trembled as my eyes scanned everyone, but none of them believed what I said.
Rachel was right.
If it weren't for the fact that I was the one involved, I'm afraid, even I would have thought the woman in the video was myself.
"Rafael, do you want to stay married to a woman like that?"
I saw some people shaking their heads gently.
They must think that it's me who doesn't deserve Rafael.
They attacked Rafael through me, but, I had no way to prove myself.
I turned my head to look at Raphael, my gaze had taken on a desperate look and my eyes had filled with tears. Standing in front of the crowd, my body was shaking almost uncontrollably.
But, without any explanation or reassurance, Rafael walked past me. I watched as he took the microphone in front of the priest and turned to the hall to face all the people, including me.
"The man in the video is me."
A gasp of surprise erupted from the scene.
Raphael was silent for a moment, and I don't know what the hell he was thinking, but I didn't have the strength to think about that anymore.
"Lena and I were lovers three years ago, and she was my first love."
My eyes widened in disbelief at what I was hearing. I reached up and covered my mouth while looking at Raphael with a very complicated gaze.
This time, Rafael looked at me.
That glance made me completely desperate.
I don't understand why he says he believes me, but his eyes are full of doubt.
After Rafael said these words, there was an uproar.
The video was cut off at this point and the screen was once again replaced with our photo.
However, when I looked at the group photo, which was full of happiness, I only felt full of irony.
Only God knows how I got through this wedding.
I don't even know exactly how I got back home. Rafael was after the wedding and I hadn't seen him since.
I have no attachment to this wedding dress.
This time, it broke my heart more than ever being abandoned by Raphael.
Once again, I had the thought of leaving.
When I got back, I went back to my room and tried to pack my things.
Raphael pushed in at this time, and when I saw his face, I knew he was already very angry.
My eyes were already swollen from crying, and the moment I saw Raphael, the tears came again.
Heartache, only heartache.
I couldn't even say a word.
"What, Lena, you still want to leave by now, don't you?" Rafael narrowed his eyes as he walked towards me.
I took a deep breath and stepped back while shaking my head, "Rafael, that wasn't me in the video, I wasn't trying to leave, I just thought that maybe we both needed to calm down a bit, didn't we?"
I thought that after I said these words, Rafael could calm down a little, but, his face was getting harder and harder.
I couldn't help but shiver as Rafael reached out and he grabbed my arm with such force that I couldn't help but scream.
"Let go of me, Rafael, you're hurting me!" My body began to shake.
I had tried to shake Rafael's hand away, but, with one force, he pinned me down on the bed.
There were tears in my eyes.
Because of the misunderstanding, anger, and humiliation, I just couldn't face Rafael calmly. I opened my mouth and bit his hand directly, without any mercy, I used all my strength.
But Raphael continued to hold me down dead on the bed, and he didn't even try to pull his hand back or grunt, just looked at me with his golden eyes.
I locked eyes with him and tears eventually flowed down my face.
It wasn't fear that made me weep, it was the sight of Raphael.
It was like he was looking at the person he hated.
But I did nothing wrong, if even loving him is a mistake, I have no choice.
"Why, Lena, why did you do that in the first place, why did you come back to mess with me now when you've already betrayed me?" Rafael lowered his voice, his questioning was filled with anger, which made my body shiver.
I loosened my teeth slightly and reached out to push him away, but Rafael didn't let me succeed.
Raphael's fingers reached into my mouth, which he effortlessly pried open with his fingers, but instead of releasing me because he had freed his hand, he stirred my tongue roughly with his fingers.
"Lena, I just wanted to ask what exactly you and William did that night, and it's okay, I can do what you can do with you, and I promise, I'll do better than him."
I couldn't stop my physical tears from falling because it was hard. After I heard what he said, I opened my mouth wide to argue, but Rafael went even further with me.
The words he said were like a knife that cut hard into my body.
But there was no room for me to resist.
Raphael's strength was great, and for so long he was gentle enough with me that these tendernesses were on the verge of making me forget just how desperate my initial encounter with him had been.
Rafael kissed me, his kiss no longer gentle, even suffocating me.
I reached out and shoved him, and the moment Rafael let go of me, I reached out and tried to hit him.
But Rafael stopped me in my tracks.
"Lena, I love you so much."
I looked into his eyes, but my heart stung at his words.
"But I love you too, Rafael, why won't you believe what I'm saying?" My brow furrowed and my voice trembled even more.
Rafael laughed.
I closed my eyes and waited for his punishment.
When wrestling, we both had our clothes pretty much off, and he was no longer as gentle as he used to be, and there was no way I could even refuse him to do so.
Raphael kissed me roughly as he rolled me over, choked me, and held me down on the bed.
I watched his shadow flicker in the dim light as Rafael pulled something out of nowhere, and before I could react, my hands were handcuffed to the bed by him.
For this scene in front of me, my anger instantly rose, and anger was about to fill me up.
Rafael didn't believe what I said, he treated me like a pet, and I knew he was doing just that.
"Let go of me, Rafael, what are you doing?!" I questioned loudly, but Raphael didn't pay any attention to my anger.
So, I struggled more violently, but at this time, my buttocks were suddenly hit hard by something.
Then came the fiery pain.
Tears fell from my eyes again.
I froze and didn't react, but soon I knew what Rafael was holding.
"Rafael! Do you know what you're doing?" I screamed and questioned him, but, instead, it turned him on even more.
I got another spanking on my butt.
Then I heard his cruel and cold words.
