Chapter 28 The Truth

(Lena's POV)
"Lena, this is punishment, don't forget you are my pet, you can't resist me in anything I do to you."
"You're crazy! You're crazy!" I closed my eyes in despair as he kissed my back. It was obvious that he was tenderly wiping away my tears, but his mouth was saying very cruel words, "Lina, you are a bitch, aren't you? It's obvious that I'm doing this to you, but your body still can't help but react."
I wanted to look at Rafael, I wanted to know if he was saying such things with all his heart, but Rafael wouldn't give me that chance.
I just wanted to tell him that the person in the video was not me. But why, why would a video like that be there. I was looking forward to it more than anyone else, but someone ruined it.
Raphael didn't care about me, he cupped my chin and kissed me again when he pulled out the whip and struck my buttocks flap hard. Because of the pain, I couldn't help but shiver.
I don't even have the strength to speak.
Rafael pressed against my ear and I felt his breath, "Lena, you betrayed me, why must you do this to me?"
I listened to what he said, but at this time, I suddenly felt a burning, fiery pain in my back. At first, such pain was not strong, then it became clearer and clearer.
I couldn't hold back and screamed out.
I couldn't even answer his question.
Rafael didn't stop, but he released the cuffs and I looked up at him.
I knew him best, and I would always see him in my dreams during the time I was separated. I didn't understand why I was abandoned, but now, maybe everything has an answer.
It is my favorite person, yet it is so cold.
I have long since recognized Rafael, these days of warmth, all an illusion.
Rafael acted as if he had never loved me before. He took out all of his anger on me, and I couldn't even dodge the amount.
Tears streamed down my face as I tried to open my mouth to tell him something, but Raphael's movements didn't stop. My words eventually shattered, and even my moans became hoarse.
The pain and pleasure overwhelmed me, and I opened my mouth but could not make any sound.
My cries and gasps mingled as Rafael didn't stop, his movements going down roughly from end to end.
From some point on, the only sounds in the room were our gasps and my intermittent moans.
I slowly closed my eyes, but Rafael didn't stop.
I knew that from the moment he hated me, it was also completely over between us.
There is no suspense.
(Rafael's POV)
I was sitting on the bed, Lena had passed out, her face was tinged with some very strange flush, and she was resting on my lap.
I reached out, wanting to gently stroke her cheek, but in the end, did not do so.
My heart was very heavy. I didn't know what kind of mentality I should use to face Lena.
With what happened at the wedding today, reason tells me that someone is bound to be trying to frame Lena.
However, I can't manage to ignore this completely.
Lena's breathing had become calmer, she was not sleeping comfortably, even in her sleep, her beautiful eyebrows could not help but wrinkle. I reached out my hand and gently rubbed his brow. After seeing her expression stretch, my heart relaxed.
I called Landon's cell phone, even though it was now late at night, but, I had to do it.
"Mr. Raphael, what do you need me to do for you?"
I was silent for a moment, then said, "Landon, help me investigate Rachel, push the time back three years and see what people she has been with for a long time or if she has any huge property expenses."
"Yes, sir."
"Hard work."
Someone is trying to frame Lena.
If they simply want to screw me, they don't need to go to all this trouble to dig up what happened three years ago.
What's more, if the man in the video was me, I wouldn't have cared at all.
Lena suddenly moved her body, her brow furrowed again, and her whole body looked very painful.
I thought about what happened tonight and how I did go a little too far.
I let out a long sigh and lay down with it, then took Lena back into my arms.
There is no longer any way back.
That's the only thing I know.
But the surprises are not the only ones.
I was surprised that in the previous situation, Lena would have woken up before me. However, I didn't expect that by the time I had tidied up, Lena would still be lying in bed.
At this time, I realized somewhat that things could be very serious.
Mr. Smith came over and checked Lena briefly, then he looked over at me and his face didn't look good: "Mr. Raphael, you may need to take Madame to the hospital."
My heartbeat was instantly empty for a beat.
(Rachel's POV)
I called William.
"You have that woman there, don't you?"
"Hmm."
After I heard William's cold tone, I instantly felt angry again.
"Very well, are you sure Rafael won't find you? Or have you already taken her out of here?" I suppressed my anger, my heavy foundation no longer covering the dark circles under my eyes.
"I'm not sure."
I laughed coldly and almost dropped the phone I was holding. But William wouldn't care if I would get angry: "You leave now, William, leave now, Rafael now knows about Lester's disappearance, if you don't hurry, it's only a matter of time before he finds you, you hear me?"
"You don't have to tell me to do things, Rachel, you should get your affairs in order first, I've heard that Rafael has warned you more than once." I could hear the sarcasm in William's voice.
I sneered very sharply, and after a moment of silence questioned him in turn: "William, you can do exactly what you want, but what if your position is known to Raphael? Can you leave the woman you like behind?"
"Rachel, I can't leave, and Raphael can find me immediately if I leave where I'm staying."
William spoke, but I couldn't hear any worry in his words at all.
"Wait until Raphael finds you, you'll regret it."
"If he does come looking for me, I'll make him take Lena away."
When I heard these words, I could no longer restrain the anger in my heart.
"You piece of shit! What use do I have for you? William, do you know how much effort I had to make to convince others to help me? We only have this one chance to get closer to Lester in the future, that's just a dream, I gave you all the chances, if you hadn't come to me, I would have had a better place to put her, and now you're going to ruin everything!"
William did not respond to my words, my chest gasped violently, and now, I had only one impulse, and that was to rush over and pull William's head off!
"Rachel, don't tell me that this is the only way you can stop Rafael from getting married." William's tone was very glib, and he seemed to have anticipated this and was even more aware of my plans.
Indeed, I prepared more than one way to fake escape from marriage.
However, the last method was a complete last resort and could easily have gone awry. Even after being guessed by William, my anger was still uncontrollable.
"William, even if I still had the means, Raphael would never hand Lester over, and I think that you should know that very well."
"Rachel, you want Rafael to die to Lena, and so do I. Even if I take Lena away, when she wakes up, he will still find a way to go back to Raphael."
William is not wrong, but I do not want to admit it.
I frowned, annoyed, and interrupted what William said, "Very well, I get it, William, you don't have to hide your incompetence, but if you do use the last one, you don't get in trouble with me afterward."
"Sure."
I hung up the phone and walked out of the lounge.
Because of Lena's disappearance, the entire auditorium staff was helping with the search and no one even noticed me.
I snuck into the backstage screening room, which was empty.
I felt my heart beating faster and faster, and after I turned on the computer, I entered all the viruses stored on the flash drive into the computer.
After this was done, it was back to the auditorium.
Not that anyone knew what I had done. If the wedding had gone ahead, I think Rafael might have regretted what he did even more than I did.
I had expected William to delay for a while, but I didn't expect Lena to return so soon.
This wedding was supposed to be mine, and Raphael was supposed to belong to me, and all of that, was taken away from me by Lena.
I sat down and watched Lena walk past me in her white wedding dress.
The moment Raphael extended his hand to her, I had the urge to flee.
But the really good show has not yet begun.
Finally, I saw what I wanted.
Lena stood isolated on top, and with a word from Raphael, she would be completely abandoned.
I waited, I waited anxiously, even with an urge to rush up to him. I wanted to tell everyone that Rafael was mine and that I was the one who should be his fiancée.
But, I didn't hear what I wanted to yap about.
My smile faded after Raphael spilled the beans about what happened three years ago.
I sat back in my chair and when I looked up at them, Rafael was looking at me. His gaze was so cold.
I knew that he was protecting Lena. If it was someone else, he probably wouldn't even care. If it were me ......
I sneered to myself.
Lena Lester, I will not let you off the hook.
