My Love Until the Last Goodbye by Alut

Chapter 0023

Mary ran with all her might and finally spotted Peter’s Lamborghini. Though Emma tried to catch up, Mary was faster and had a head start, so the housekeeper could only watch as she got into the car, unable to see who was driving

“Let’s go, Peter! I’m sure Emma is already alerting Maximus,” Mary said, still trying to catch her breath from the long run.

Peter floored the accelerator and sped off, heading for an uncertain destination. He glanced over at Mary, taking in her condition. She was trembling and looked nothing like the girl he once knew. Seeing her so distressed, he decided to pull over to a secluded spot and try to calm her down. He got out of the car, opened the passenger door, and knelt to be at her level, pulling her into a tight hug

“Mary, what happened, sweetheart? Where did the love go? All I see in your eyes now is fear and sadness. “he blurted out without thinking.

Mary began to sob, covering her face in shame.

“I don’t know, Peter! I’m scared. I didn’t know what else to do but call you. I don’t want to get you into trouble with your brother, but I have no one else to turn to. After I married him, I broke all ties with the people I knew on the beach.”

“I’m not complaining about that! Come on, get out of the car; I need to check you over,” Peter said, trying to assess her injuries.

She stepped out of the car, revealing a tiny figure that bore no resemblance to the woman she had been three years ago. Peter examined her face; her right cheek was swollen, and she had bruises on her lip and eye. He noticed a small hemorrhage in her right eye. As she put her hands over her face to cover herself, he saw that one of her wrists was swollen.

“I think we need to go to a doctor before taking you anywhere. Is that okay?”

“Yes, but it has to be outside the city because as soon as Maximus finds out, he’ll search for me everywhere.”

“Don’t worry, we’ll go to see Philip Hill. Remember him
