Revenge After Divorce by Black Rose

Chapter 273

We walked quickly toward the car, the cold night air biting my skin as I held Olivia against me, her hand lifeless in mine. It was like holding a doll, her fingers stiff and unresponsive. Her body felt unnaturally cold, as if the life had been drained out of her. I could feel the chill of her skin through the fabric of my shirt, and my heart ached with every step..

“It’s going to be alright, my love,” I whispered over and over, trying to reassure her, trying to calm the storm inside me. “You are safe now. You are with me.”

I kept repeating the words as if they could heal the wounds she had suffered. As If my voice could somehow bring her back to me, make her whole again.

I slid into the backseat, carefully positioning Olivia across my lap, her head resting against my chest. I held her close, my arms wrapped protectively around her as if I could shield her from the world that had hurt her.

Her hand was ice cold, and I couldn’t stop myself from pressing it against my cheek, desperate for any sign of life. But there was nothing. She didn’t stir. She didn’t move.
