Let's Get Married novel Chapter 302

The man stops his steps but doesn’t turn around, "How could I do this to you? This is the best you are going to get."

"How can you do this to my parents? They saved you at the cost of their lives. I can have that you don’t love me, but what I can’t have, is that you don’t ask for my opinion and decide to send me away! I don’t want to go back, and it should be my choice!"

Marina can bear with everything but the leave of Rex. As long as she is not around him, she feels like she can’t breathe anymore.

After hearing all this, Rex sees nothing but absurdity. She refuses to leave? This is all excuse for her selfishness and despicable personality.

"You did have a choice before. I gave you a choice. But I really wish I didn’t, or everything wouldn’t have happened. You and I are both responsible. If not for the sake of you parents, I would have destroyed you. "If he were really cruel, he could have terminated her treatment before the lawsuit.

He will remember her parents’ sacrifice, but she is not included.

Marina points her fingers at her heart, crying and shouting, "If that is the truth, why are you giving me another month? Are you really enjoying watching me suffer that much? Rex, I love you, is me loving you wrong?"

She questions him aggressively, like the world owes her something. But she seems to forget who the real murderer is.

Rex gives her an answer that shatters her heart," Lily’s case ends in a month."

"Lily, Lily..."Marina repeats her name while crying and laughing, "It is Lily again..."

Rex just ignores her drama, "If you want to leave earlier, I won’t stop you."

The man sounds so calm and careless, like he is talking to someone else.

Trying hard as she is, Marina can’t grasp a single trace of care or emotion in his voice. It is a clear truth that he doesn’t care about her no more.

"Last words," Turning to her and sneering, he pauses a bit and says in a low but strong voice, "I don’t love you, and I won’t forever."

Rex leaves at last.

The ward door closes up.

Marina is left alone in the room, which is so quiet like no one has ever set foot in. Dust in the air clashes against each other, like they are scrambling to humiliate her.

"See, without Lily, you are nothing."

"Ah!!"Falling into pieces, Marina runs to the desk, without even looking at the things on it, she sweeps everything down the floor.

Successive sounds of cracks get out the door, which draw medicals in. But she just won’t stop and keeps smashing everything into pieces.

The room is soon in mess. A medical gets too close and her arm is bumped by a medical kit, which is soon dotted by a big bruise.

The crazy situation doesn’t not last and is soon ended by people flowing in.

Marina is pressed upon the bed, with face on the sheet. Then a cold needle containing sedative is injected into her arm.

Half a minute passes, she feels like all power is drained from her body. With messy hair and bony limbs, she lies on the bed like a lifeless, worn-out doll, staring at the ceiling which is as pale as her life.

Losing all senses and falling into a coma, she has only one thing is in her mind, which is the determination in Rex’s eyes when he took the leave.

He said he would never love me, ever.

...

Waiting for the result of the lawsuit is hard. In jail, Lily doesn’t have much to do other than follows instructions to get up, train and accept education.

She is well aware that the reason she isn’t tasked with laboring work is that Rex pulled some strings. Otherwise she would have suffered much more.

Despite that fact, when she sits in the empty and moist room every day, Lily feels endless sadness filling her heart. Environment is so vital for a human being, because bad environment hurts people both mentally and physically. She is sensitive enough to find that her morning sickness is getting more and more evident.

Food in jail is not good, either. Although what she gets is already the best, the oil floating in the bowl and the greasy meat are all so disgusting to her.

For fear that ward guards might find out she is pregnant, she can only hold the sickness and try not to puke out.

During this time, Rex didn’t show up and only called her twice. She understands that due to her on-court confession which posed great difficulties for achieving a verdict, there is so much waiting for him to do now.

Lily asked him, "Is bail on the table?"

The man on the phone went silent for two seconds, "I will try."

These three words were all that she need to survive.

A month passed, and the result awaits.

"0485, get out, it is your turn. "the ward guard says outside her room.

The moment she goes out the door, she can almost hear her heart beating. One step, two steps, three steps, she slowly moves to the gate of the jail until the car ready to escort her comes in the sight.

Lily stops at the gate and looks up at the sky. It is a fine day, with blue sky and clusters of clouds. However, she feels exactly the opposite way now.

"Come on, move, time doesn’t wait." People from the back keeps urging her.

Lily stops looking at the sky and slowly walks towards the car. It is not far, but her heart is upside down. No one knows what she is thinking about. Only she knows that her hands are already shaking and just can’t be stopped.

When she gets on the car, she glances at the driver who is a man in his forties. He wears a dark blue uniform and an extremely short haircut.

The glance lasts for less than three seconds before she walks forward and sit down.

The car travels steadily and reaches the courthouse.

After getting off, she is taken to a room where Rex is already there with grave look on his face. Clearly, he has been informed of the result.

"You know the result?" She asks calmly.

"Yeah." Rex answers slightly, and the grave look stays on his face.

"Tell me, I can do with whatever result."

Her undisturbed face shocks Rex’. It gets so quiet in the room that even sounds of the clock on the wall can be heard.

Tik Tok, Tik Tok...

"25 years."
