Mr. CEO's Substitute Bride
Chapter 1712: As Far as the Eye Can See, Eternal as Heaven and Earth: A Shocking Scene (3000+)_2
Violet Zimmerman was about to crouch down to help him take off his shoes when Daxton Lancaster pushed her away. “Go close the door.”
The drunken man had no sense of restraint, and Violet Zimmerman was pushed onto the floor. She sighed helplessly looking at the drunken man, got up to close the door.
Even if she was unhappy, Violet Zimmerman didn’t want to show it. These days had been relatively stable, as long as Daxton Lancaster did not make things difficult for her, she felt grateful.
After closing the door, she returned to the sofa and again supported Daxton Lancaster’s arm.
“It’s late, let’s rest.”
“I’m not sleeping!” Daxton Lancaster pulled his arm away again and slapped the sofa beside him hard. “Sit here, I need to talk to you!”
Violet Zimmerman…
Knowing well that she couldn’t escape being troubled today, she tightened the coat draped on her shoulders and sat down next to Daxton Lancaster.
Suppressing her fears, she forced a smile. “What are we talking about? It’s late, can’t it wait until tomorrow?”
“No!” The two words Daxton Lancaster spoke were domineering, his bloodshot phoenix eyes staring directly at Violet Zimmerman, making her anxious.
With a “slap”, Daxton Lancaster’s large hand landed on Violet Zimmerman’s shoulder, making a loud noise and startling her instinctively.
“Have you done something wrong? Why are you so afraid of me?”
Daxton Lancaster’s large hand slapped Violet Zimmerman’s shoulder again, each time with great force, almost like a blow to the shoulder. It hurt, but Violet Zimmerman didn’t dare to dodge.
Forcing a smile, she carefully tried to move Daxton Lancaster’s hand off her shoulder.
“Daxton, weren’t you going to talk to me? Just say it quickly so we can rest, you’re drunk.”
“I’m not drunk! Right now I’m more sober than ever!”
Daxton Lancaster brushed off Violet Zimmerman’s hand, his eyes bloodshot and fierce.
“Violet Zimmerman! You’re so good at pretending, acting like a virtuous wife, obeying me in everything, but secretly still in contact with Joseph.”
“I didn’t!” Violet Zimmerman anxiously defended herself. “Since I got pregnant with Evander, we haven’t done anything!”
“Ha! Are you blaming me?” Daxton Lancaster suddenly pinched Violet Zimmerman’s jaw, a smile of cold mockery on his lips.
“I’m not, how could I dare?”
When a person is anxious and frightened, they tend to make mistakes. Like Violet Zimmerman, who wanted to say no, but the words turned into “not dare” at the last moment.
Daxton Lancaster coldly laughed, his lips drawing even colder, pulling Violet Zimmerman’s chin closer with gritted teeth.
“You wretch, today you finally revealed your true feelings! Not dare? Ha, so in your heart you dare not utter a word, isn’t it!”
“No, no, it’s not that, Daxton, I’ve never complained, my expectations aren’t high, I just wish for a stable life.”
“Expectations aren’t high?” Daxton Lancaster sneered, his bloodshot eyes turning a bloodthirsty color.
“Violet Zimmerman, you really know how to speak, honeyed words hiding daggers, that’s exactly the kind of woman you are! You conspired with Joseph to deceive me, having him pretend to date someone from my company to cover for your affair. Tell me, how many times this past year have you sneaked behind my back? Am I completely green from head to toe now!”
By the end, Daxton Lancaster’s emotions surged, his hand gripping Violet Zimmerman’s neck.
His wife conspired with his own brother to deceive him just for the sake of carrying on their illicit relationship. Thinking about everything his brother did for this woman, he wanted to choke the perpetrator to death!
When trust is lost, people speak carelessly.
Violet Zimmerman’s throat was clutched tightly by Daxton Lancaster, forced back into the sofa, wanting to resist but lacking strength, wanting to defend herself but he wouldn’t believe it.
Clearly wronged and afraid, yet Violet Zimmerman just laughed, looking at the furious man, her smile as beautiful as a flower.
“Yes, Joseph and I have never stopped, as for how many times we’ve been sneaky, I can’t remember! We intended to hide it from you, but you discovered it, haha… haha… hahaha…”
Violet Zimmerman chuckled, and by the end even burst into loud laughter.
She looked happy, yet tears began to flow.
“You wretch! Looks like I’ve been too lenient with you in my usual teaching!”
With a growl, Daxton Lancaster swung his arm down hard, pinning Violet Zimmerman into the sofa.
With two kids sleeping in the next room, afraid to wake them, Violet Zimmerman bit her finger to keep herself silent while enduring Daxton Lancaster’s punches. But the real pain was inside her heart.
Years of marriage, yet what she got in return was his mistrust, previously only verbal humiliation, now it escalated to punching and kicking.
The drunk man lost all rationality, and his punches began to hurt, drawing the belt fastened at his waist, grabbing Violet Zimmerman’s hair and flipping her onto the ground, then swinging the belt down.
“You wretch, if I don’t teach you a lesson today you never learn!”
“Make you promiscuous! Make you seduce Joseph again, today I’ll beat you to death…”
The leather belt struck her body, each hit leaving a clear red mark. Violet Zimmerman bit down on her wrist, crumpled on the floor, a single tear dropping down.
In the room next door, Robert Lancaster drowsily heard some sound, in the dark the five-year-old climbed up, sitting on the bed rubbing his eyes curiously looking around.
The sound coming from the room next door awakened him. He got off the bed, barefooted quickly running to open the door.
Stepping out, the strange sound became clearer, coming from mom and dad’s room, like the sound of him teaching his brother to whip tops, yet also not…
Acting from some feeling, Robert Lancaster lightened his steps, walking barefoot to the door of his parents’ room, gripping the handle, pushing the door slightly open.
As soon as he pushed the door open, Robert Lancaster covered his mouth, a scene inside leaving him extremely shocked, beside the sofa, dad holding a belt whipping mom, mom biting her hand not daring to make a sound…
