As if a long-suppressed force had suddenly erupted uncontrollably, he kissed her fiercely. Eleanor fought back desperately, but he was reckless, tearing at her wedding dress like a man possessed.
The moment her wedding dress was ripped apart, Eleanor looked at him with eyes filled with hatred. Unperturbed, he continued to kiss her passionately, one hand supporting her waist, drawing her tightly against him.
Eleanor was forced to endure all this. Her legs flailed wildly, but were trapped by his. Bernard winced from pain, but didn't let go, merely fixing his gaze on her as if testing the depths of her cruelty.
Seeing that he hadn't released her, Eleanor redoubled her efforts. Bernard's ensuing laugh ended in disappointment as he finally let go of her.
As soon as he released her, Eleanor pushed him away, got up, pulled a blanket off the bed, wrapped it around herself, and retreated into a corner. She crossed her arms, said nothing, and stared at him coldly.
Her guard was up and it caused Bernard to lose control again. He stepped forward and forcefully grabbed her chin. "I'm asking you, do you remember this place?"
He was so strong, Eleanor felt as if her jaw was about to dislocate. He, oblivious to her pain, pointed to the bedroom and rasped, "We shared this bed for five years. There's not a part of you I haven't touched. Why are we not compatible now?"
So, he had brought her here and bullied her against her will just because she said they were not compatible? Eleanor trembled with rage, but refused to engage him.
Seeing her like this, Bernard was even more disappointed. "Do you think that now that Garett has returned the money to me, you can erase everything and start over with him?"
