Chapter 1799: Someone Else's Wife

On the other side.

Abandoned villa in the eastern suburbs.

Vicki had been asleep for a long time. When she left with Rayan, he

gave her a bottle of mineral water. She knew that there must be

something added to it, but she still drank it. Soon after drinking it, she

lost consciousness. When she woke up again, it was already dusk. She

could distinguish the difference between the darkness before dawn and

the darkness in the evening. One contained light, while the other rapidly

faded away. So, she immediately realized that it was evening. She had

slept for an entire day.

She wondered how much medication Rayan had given her for her to

sleep for so long?

She muttered curse words under her breath. When she tried to move,

she felt a heavy sensation in her feet. She shook her feet, hearing the

clanking sound-it was ankle shackles.

Damn Rayan. Afraid that she would escape, he actually put ankle

shackles on her.

Her hands were also handcuffed, but after some effort, she uncovered

the blanket that was covering her.

She stood up, took a few steps towards the door, looked around, and

found that it was like a room that had been renovated. Simple

furnishings, beige wallpaper on the walls. A crystal chandelier hung

from the ceiling, but it wasn't turned on. The sparkling beads emitted a

faint glow in the last remnants of dusk.

When Vicki opened the door and saw the outside, she was stunned for

a moment. It was such a familiar place.

Immediately, her whole body trembled, becoming stiff, unable to move

at all.

This place was the same villa where Xiao Zhen had kidnapped her

back then.

Memories flooded back, and she remembered every corner of this

place, every trace of Xiao Zhen's abuse and torture of other girls, filled

with nightmarish memories. When she was only seventeen years old,

she had spent a month here, living a life worse than death.

She couldn't recall it. Once she started to remember, even breathing

became painful.

At this moment, Vicki felt as if her feet were filled with lead. Even

without the ankle shackles, she couldn't take a single step.

Rayan had actually brought her to the villa where she had been

humiliated by Xiao Zhen back then. So, this room behind her was the

room where Rayan had killed Xiao Zhen. At that time, the floor was

covered in blood. No wonder it had been renovated and looked

different from back then.

After Xiao Zhen's incident, this villa had long been abandoned. It

couldn't be sold, and the Saunders family had long abandoned it. The

surrounding area was overgrown with weeds, and it was said that this

land would be developed and transformed into something else in the

near future. How did Rayan manage to occupy this place? It was

beyond imagination.

Vicki narrowed her eyes. What exactly did Rayan want to do?

"Awake?"

Not far away, Cloud appeared from around the corner, holding a tray of

food. He took step by step, approaching Vicki until he stood in front of

her.

"Go inside. You must be hungry. I made some food for you."

He walked past Vicki, placing the tray on the table.

Vicki glanced at it, and her eyes twitched. These were all her favorite

dishes from childhood. Homemade dishes like braised pork with quail

eggs, fried eggs, vegetable fried rice, winter melon soup. The

conditions in the orphanage weren't good, so it was already considered

good to have enough food. Rarely did they get to eat meat, and that

day was undoubtedly the happiest day for all the kids.

She remembered that Rayan always sat beside her.

He would put the braised pork in her bowl and say, "You like to eat

meat. Take more."

And she would always give him all the quail eggs, saying, “You need to

grow taller. Eat more nutrition.”

When they ate fried eggs, he would always give her the egg yolk,

saying, "You eat it. I don't like egg yolks. Give me your egg whites."

In winter, it got colder and colder, and the orphanage didn't have

heating. Many kids would huddle together to keep warm. He would

always crawl into her blanket and say, "I'm so cold. Let's sleep

together.”

Actually, Vicki knew that he was the one who warmed her up every

time.

The two of them spent year after year like this, innocent and carefree.

During their naive youth, she gave him her first kiss. It happened when

she had just turned sixteen. On her birthday, he used the pocket money

he had saved up to buy her a pair of new shoes.

It was warm and precious, and it didn't come easily. She happily took

the initiative to kiss him.

He was also happy, spinning her around in his arms for along time, until

they both became dizzy and fell to the ground. He ended up on top of

her, narrowly avoiding something more passionate.

He had been tempted many times, driven by his physical instincts,

wanting to possess her completely. But reason told him to wait until she

came of age, until she turned eighteen, so he could have her.

He patiently waited for her to grow up, loving everything about her.

Fighting was something he taught her bit by bit, afraid that she would

be bullied by others.

No matter how wild she was, getting into fights and causing trouble, in

his eyes, she was the most beautiful.

They thought they would continue like this forever. They even made an

agreement that he would come of age one year earlier than her, so he

could go out and earn money. He could become a boxing coach, a

karate instructor, and take on many part-time jobs. With his financial

ability, he would continue to support her education, and they would go

to college together. Their lives would gradually improve day by day.

Until that incident happened.

It shattered all their beautiful plans.

She was kidnapped by Xiao Zhen, almost humiliated, almost killed.

And he...

Vicki snapped out of her reminiscence, shaking her head, and sat down

at the table.

Cloud looked at her and picked up a piece of braised pork, feeding it to

her. "Try it and see if it still tastes the same."

Vicki chewed and swallowed. She didn't answer, a trace of greasiness

remaining on her lips.

Instinctively, she reached out to wipe it, but Cloud beat her to it. He

used his rough fingertips to touch her lips, calloused from years of

training and handling guns.

"Why did you bring me here?" Vicki frowned.

He knew very well that this was the place she despised the most.

"Because you have forgotten the past. I want to make you remember,”

Cloud's gaze fell on Vicki's ring finger, where the peculiar cat's eye ring

sat. Mysterious and expensive. There was no need to ask, he knew

that it was her wedding ring with Felix.

They had actually gotten married, although they didn't have a wedding

ceremony, the news had already spread among their acquaintances.

How could he not know?

He was filled with anger. The news of their marriage undoubtedly

severed his last thread, pushing him into complete madness.

Suddenly, he fiercely grabbed Vicki's chin. "Why? Why him? Give me a

reason. If you say it's for revenge, if you gave yourself to him, I won't

blame you. Vicki, you know my feelings for you have never changed.”

He didn't wait for her to answer.

He suddenly went mad, lowering his head and forcefully kissing her

lips.

It was a frenzy, filled with ravaging and deep longing.

Ten years had passed, and he had missed her and longed for her for a

whole decade.

After finally coming back, she had become someone else's wife.
