Contract And Marriage

Sarina

I pulled off the cloth covering the face of the man, pinning me down after I asked who he was and got no answer. I couldn’t speak when I saw who it was. It felt like my world crumbled as I looked at Jason’s grinning face. I couldn’t believe the man I loved for so long, who I thought I knew completely, was capable of such an evil act. The sweet and happy Jason I knew is gone.

“You’re mine, Sarina, only mine!” he said angrily after I slapped him, and he slapped me back, causing my face to turn. It was painful; he hit me with so much force that I cried. He never let me get hurt by anything or anyone when we’re together. And here he was, the cause of my pain, both physically and emotionally.

“I didn’t think you’d ever do this to me.” His eyes softened for a moment, probably because of what I said. But it quickly vanished, and he looked at me angrily again.

“You’re supposed to be with me, Sarina. That man doesn’t want to break up with you once your contract ends. Even you! You don’t want to leave that rich guy, do you? Why? Because he’s wealthy?”

“You don’t know what you’re talking about! Let go of me!” I shouted back, full of anger. I couldn’t believe Jason knew Roskov-the man who had me kidnapped at the airport and brought me to this place. I was dizzy, and everything felt like it was spinning, probably because of the drug they made me inhale.

“No, Sarina! If you don’t want to return to me, I’ll ensure you stay mine forever.” Then, he slapped me again. I couldn’t do anything because my hands were tied. He walked away and grabbed something from the drawer by the bed. My eyes widened when I saw it. He was holding a syringe, and with the look on his face, I knew it was not good for me. I want to beg him, but no. I’m not going to do that.

They had injected me earlier, and I didn’t know what Jason was planning to inject me with now. I struggled harder, trying to prevent him from doing whatever he wanted. But I was weak, not only because of the dizziness but also from all the drugs they had already given me.

I felt my body going numb, and I couldn’t do anything as Jason climbed back on top of me. He looked like a demon to me now, no longer the Jason I once knew. What happened? Why did he become like this?Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

“You’re mine, Sarina, okay? I should have been your first, but what did you do? You gave yourself to that man I’ve been waiting for so long to be with you. I imagined how our honeymoon would be, but you ruined it. You ruined everything!” he spat out angrily while forcing himself on me.

“Ahhh!!” I screamed, using up all the strength I had left. ‘Stopp..’ is all I can say to myself as I am already losing the strength to shout or even struggle. My heart was so broken that this was happening to me, that I was suffering like this from the person I once trusted.

“Shut up, Sarina, and enjoy it. You should enjoy this with me, not with that other man!” His eyes were wild. Where was the man I had loved? Tears streamed down my face, unstoppable. I was hurting, not just from what he was doing but from the sight of him. No matter how I look at him now, I couldn’t see the Jason Satudez I once loved, who had been a part of my childhood and life.

“Let go of me!!! Let me go!!!” I kept screaming, even though my voice was hoarse. “Please, stop this… just stop…” I begged him. But he only smirked before reaching for a swiss knife.

“Noooo… Maximussss…” I screamed, thinking he was going to kill me. But he only slashed my cheek.

“Because of your face, Sarina, Maximus fell for you. From now on, he won’t come back for you because the beauty he loved is gone. Only I love you truly. I accept you no matter what, but you chose another man!” He slashed the other side of my face.

I couldn’t feel the pain anymore, but the tears kept coming.

“Shit! What did you do?” Roskov burst into the room, his voice full of shock. Both Jason and I looked at him at the same time.

“Roskov, please, help me…” I didn’t know why, but he helped me. He lunged at Jason and fought to take the knife from him. He quickly untied my hands once he managed to do it, and I took the chance to move away.

“Roskov!” I screamed when Jason suddenly punched him, and they started exchanging blows.

“Roskov!”

“Roskov!” The knife slipped from his hand, and I quickly grabbed it. But Jason picked up something else, ready to hit Roskov over the head with it, so I rushed to help and pushed Jason away. He quickly recovered and slapped me.

“Argh!!” I didn’t care about the pain anymore.

“Let him go…”

“I said let him go… Ugh!” I hadn’t even realized it, but I had stabbed Jason in the back, causing him to elbow me.

“Run now, Sarina!” Roskov shouted. I looked at him, and when I saw him nod, I followed his order, even though I didn’t want to.

‘Run, I have to run, he can’t catch me! I didn’t mean to stab him.’

I kept running and realized I was on a yacht. I didn’t stop; I kept going. I didn’t know how far I’d gone, exhausted and weak when I didn’t notice the speeding car. The next thing I knew, I had collided with it.

“Miss, are you alright?” a man asked. I lifted my head and looked at him. As I was losing consciousness, I whispered,

“Please… send me back to my husband.” Then everything went dark.

“Are you okay, Sarina?” I saw Dr. Miraez’s face when I opened my eyes. I could feel the wetness on my cheeks, and I didn’t even realize I had been crying. Maximus suddenly came closer and hugged me tightly. I felt his worry and sympathy for me. His body was shaking, just like mine. I was shaking because of fear and the pain of what I had found out. He was surely shaking from anger and concern for me.

“We will make him pay, my wife,” he whispered as he rubbed my back gently. I felt relieved, knowing that some of my life’s questions had been answered. But it was so painful to accept that the person I had first given my heart to was the one who would break and ruin me.

I never imagined that Jason could do that to me, even the first time I saw him again when I couldn’t remember anything. After knowing he was the first man I ever loved, I quickly felt comfortable, even though I knew Maximus was jealous of him.

I told Maximus and Dr. Miraez what had happened once again. It hurt so much to repeat the story, but I had to. I wanted to free myself from the pain of that discovery, and I was grateful that my husband was by my side. My doctor was right-I really needed him.

When our session ended, Maximus and I went home. I was quiet during the trip, and he asked if I could still manage. I nodded and gave him a sad smile. “I need to be strong because I want justice for what he did to me.”

When we got home, Maximus let me rest in our room after I hugged and kissed our child. That was when I realized how brave Chase was. Whatever I went through, he went through, too, because I was already pregnant with him at that time.

I am so grateful to the Lord for giving me another chance to be with my family.

“Will you be okay here?” I looked into his eyes and saw clearly his worry and anger.

“What are you going to do?” I asked anxiously because I didn’t want him to do anything wrong after knowing what happened to me.

“I told you, we’re going to make him pay.” His jaw tightened as he said that. Maybe he wanted to remain calm in front of me.

“What exactly are you going to do?” I asked again. “I want to know so I can also feel at ease.”

“You don’t have to worry, my wife. I won’t do anything you’ll be concerned about. Even though I want to kill him right now, I won’t hurt Jason.”

“It’s not him I’m worried about, it’s you. I don’t want you to be away from me, Chase, and our future child. What he did to me is unforgivable. He betrayed me and my trust. I never thought he could do that to me. But I would rather have you with us, so please…”

“Shh…” he hushed me because I had started crying again. “I won’t stain my hands with his blood if that’s what you’re worried about. But I’ll make sure he pays dearly.” I nodded to him and tried to calm myself down. That’s all I wanted to happen, too.

After our conversation, Maximus left our room and went to his mini office. I was sure he would call the people he needed to contact so Jason could be caught.

I still couldn’t understand why I always saw Jason at the hospital. What was he doing there? I shook my head and prayed to the Lord that he would be caught in the right way.

I still couldn’t remember much of my past, but Maximus and my parents said I was close to Jason’s parents. Even now, I already feel sorry for them. They probably never expected or thought their son could do something like that.

I prayed that Jason would show remorse. Even if I never spoke to him again, I would know he still had a chance to live a righteous life after paying for everything he did to me.
