Hellbound With You

Chapter 243 Stupid!

However, before Alex could reach the door, it opened and Zeke emerged. He just looked at Alex, expressionless as usual.

"What's wrong?" he asked, seeing Alex's situation.

"Please stop him, Zeke! Leonor was here and Abi and Alex fought. I think he's planning on going after them!" Xavier's voice thundered.

"Move, Zeke," Alex ordered, his voice hard and dangerous.

"So you're going to chase after them? To what end? So you can sate your anger while you leave your wife here alone?" Zeke calmly asked, causing Alex to look at him, gnashing his teeth again. "You're making things worse, Alex. All you have to do is talk to your wife."

"She doesn't want to see me! She pushed me away!"

"And? Will venting your anger on Leonor make her smile at you again?"

Alex clenched his fists. Knowing Abigail, what he was about to do would not be something that would make her smile.

Suddenly, Alex punched the walls and kicked things like madman. Blood started dripping down from his hands as he cursed. This was the only thing he could do to stop himself, to take this anger away.

The men just watched him and Zeke just leaned on the door.

And then, a loud thunder roared from above them. Alex immediately looked outside to see the heavy rain coming down hard from the grey skies. His eyes widened in terror.

"F*ck!" he cursed and he dashed back towards the back door.

Zeke finally moved from the door as the butler immediately called the maid to clean up the debris from what seemed like an earthquake aftermath.

"This is getting really serious… don't you think? Just a small fight and Alex goes crazy," Xavier commented and Kai, as always, defended Alex.

"It's because he's not used to this. I think once they get over this bump, Alex will know what to do next time. By the way, Zeke, I thought you'd be away until tomorrow."

"Yes, I just came back to get something. I'm going back there immediately."

Once Zeke was gone, Xavier who was lazily rolling on the couch spoke. "And what is that guy up to these days? I am pretty sure he's dealing with something. What's with all the secrecy?"

Kai felt the same. Zeke's calmness felt a little disrupted and even though it was faint, Zeke could smell the scent of blood from him. Did he really head to country V yesterday? What was he hiding?

…

Back in the backyard, Alex immediately found Abigail behind the wisteria tree. She was sitting on the ground hugging her knees and crying.

He felt like a sharp object was cutting him from inside out when he saw her like that. This can't be happening. She shouldn't be hurting like this when her surgery was fast approaching.

The raindrop fell all around them and Alex immediately crouched down and gathered her in his arms, protecting her from the bombardment of the heavens. Even if she didn't want to see him, he couldn't let her get drenched and potentially become sick from this.

But Abi pushed him away again. "No!" she yelled as she sobbed.

Alex clenched his fists. Damn, this was hurting him… damn bad. He felt like he was being strangled. He had seen countless people despise him, hate him and curse him to death. Not just strangers but everyone who was supposed to be his family. He was so used to getting that treatment that he didn't care what people thought of him anymore. He didn't care, he stopped caring altogether because life was easier that way. If he didn't care, he wouldn't get hurt and no matter what anyone said, it couldn't affect him. That was how he lived until she came, but now, he felt like he was being torn apart from her pushing him away like this, from her telling him she didn't want to see him.

"Abigail… please come inside. It's raining. You can punch me and kick me and do whatever you want to me, but do it inside." His voice was low and pleading. Somehow, his raging demon was tamed. Maybe even his inner demons were as scared as him, scared that this would get worse and Abigail, his Abigail would end up hating him too. He was terrified that this would worsen her situation. He would never forgive himself if this affected her health.

Alex hesitantly lifted his hands again as the rain drenched them. "Wife, please… what should I do? What do you want me to do? I don't know what to do! Tell me… and I'll do it. I'll do anything!" Alex burst out, but still restrained his voice. His head was in chaos. He just wanted her to let him take her inside. F*ck! He should've asked Zeke how to deal with this because he had no idea at all!

Finally, Abi slowly lifted her face. Her eyes still filled with sadness, a sight that rocked Alex's entire being.

And then she moved. Thinking that his wife would finally embrace him, Alex stiffened but the embrace didn't come. Instead, she pushed him onto the ground as she sat on him.

"You don't know what to do? You don't know? How could you say that?! Stupid! Stupid!" she yelled at him, sobbing as she punched his chest.

Abi wept as those words came out of her mouth. The rain had already drenched them and the sky seemed as angry as she was. "I hate it! I hate it! I hate that I'm the only one who doesn't know anything about you! I hate it that those women know and I don't! I hate it that I don't know anything about you! I thought I was okay but… but… I am not! It hurts! It hurts, right here." Her hand went to her chest as she said those last words.
