Please Come Back, Honey! Chapter 125

“I know,” Trever murmured as he held her tightly. He already knew about her hatred and resentment for him. There was a time when he thought she was only playing hard-to-get and that she was still pining for him. It took him a while to realize that she had well and truly moved on from him and that she no longer wanted to have anything to do with him.

In fact, who could blame her? It was hardly a mystery that she did not want to hang around somebody whose company was always out to get her.

It had started out with Crystal, followed by Trevor’s mother, and now, Arianna. These women had tried to hurt Emma in different but equally vicious ways. If Trevor could not understand why Emma hated him before, he did now, especially after he had witnessed the horrors she was put through earlier, and that wasn’t even half of it.

“I hate you. I absolutely hate you!” Emma yelled at him, then began to sob helplessly and uncontrollably in his arms. In all her years, she had never cried so much that she felt hollow. In fact, she started to feel so hollow that her head spun. Darkness came swiftly, and just like that, she collapsed in Trevor’s arms.

He panicked as he held onto her limp frame. “Emma!” he gasped.

At that moment, a few of the police officers came out of the warehouse with Arianna and the two men shuffling alongside them in handcuffs. Upon seeing Emma and Trevor, an officer hurried over and said, “Come on, we’ll take her to the hospital. I’ll show you the way; I know these parts of town well enough.”

Trevor nodded and carried Emma in his arms, then rushed toward his own car. The police got into the passenger’s seat to give him directions, and the other police cruisers followed them to the hospital.

Meanwhile, when Arianna saw how her brother had shed his indifferent demeanor and panicked over Emma’s condition, she was so incensed she stomped her foot. She wondered where his pride had gone. She couldn’t believe the man who had once thought so little of Emma was now caring for her. How is he going to live this humiliation down? How can he stand it?
