Chapter 22 Showing No Mercy

The girl was pressed against the table by him, and her clothes was disheveled. Her seaweed–like black hair spread across the snow–white tablecloth, her small face lushed, and her panicked eyes brimming with tears. She had no idea that her current appearance could easily awaken the primal desires of a man.
Michael’s eyes were bloodshot as he grabbed the hem of her dress and tore it apart.
Josephine felt a chill on her legs, and her heart tightened.
Her wrists were firmly pinned against the table. His strength was overwhelming, leaving her completely immobile. She couldn’t even seize the chance to grab her silver needles to defend herself.
She felt his long legs forcefully wedge between her knees, preventing her from closing them.
Josephine’s heart pounded wildly. She bit down hard on his shoulder.
The man didn’t move an inch.
The taste of blood filled her mouth. In panic, she released him and looked up.
Her pupils reflected his mocking, handsome face. His dark, menacing eyes stared at her, as if ridiculing her futile resistance. The sight of blood didn’t deter him. Instead, it further provoked the violent tendencies in his heart.
Her trembling lips, smeared with blood, fell into Michael’s gaze, instantly igniting a fuse within him.
He lowered his head and kissed her lips passionately.
A wave of sharp pain hit..
Josephine’s vision blacked out. She cried out in pain, urable to hold back her tears.
The sound of the girl’s sobbing reached Michael’s ears.
He paused his actions, propping himself up slightly to gaze at the girl beneath him.
Josephine’s long eyelashes were damp with tears, and her brows were tightly knit in pain.
She was crying uncontrollably beneath him, curled up as much as possible. Her teeth bit deeply into her lip, which was already bleeding.
Blood trickled down her thighs, staining the white tablecloth red.
Glancing over, Michael suddenly felt a wave of irritation, his fingers tensing against the tabletop-
How ridiculous!
With his status, he actually resorted to forcing a woman
No, worse–a girl much younger than him.
Josephine was still a girl, having just turned nineteen today.

Michael frowned slightly, took a few deep breaths, and pressed his hand against his chest. He stood up, suppressing his rage, and spoke coldly.
“Get out of my sight!”
With that, he turned and strode toward the bathroom stairs.
He needed to take a cold shower to calm himself down
Michael’s figure disappeared at the staircase, leaving the dining room in shambles.
Josephine struggled to lift herself up and glanced at her legs.
Her dress had been torn, and her thighs bore bruises where his fingers had gripped her, marked with streaks of blood.
He was truly rough.
Perhaps he thought of her as a fool, showing her no mercy even in situations like this.
Josephine raised her leg with difficulty and took out a bloodied dining knife.
The knife had cut her thigh during the struggle, yet he had restrained himself from going further.
As Zendaya opened the mansion’s door, she was stunned by the scene before her.
“Mrs. Jaywalker, don’t move.” Zendaya said as she rushed over with a cotton swab. “Mr. Jaywalker just called me and said you were hurt. He told me to bandage your wound. What happened between the two of you?”
Josephine was slightly taken aback. Did he really call Zendaya to come?
Forcing a weak smile, she replied, “Maybe I made Mr. Jaywalker angry again.”
A deep, long gash ran along her thigh, cut by the dining knife, causing excruciating pain.
As Zendaya dressed her wound, she noticed the broken dishes scattered on the floor and sighed. “Mrs. Jaywalker, you spent the whole afternoon cooking and even burned your fingers, but Mr. Jaywalker didn’t even take a single bite?”
Josephine shook her head. “Zendaya, you don’t need to call me ‘Mrs. Jaywalker‘ anymore. I’ll be packing my things and leaving the mansion shortly.”
Zendaya glanced at her, seemingly hesitating to say something.
Josephine was deeply saddened. She had intended to thank Michael but hadn’t expected things to end up like this.
What upset her even more was, since Michael had chosen to be with Winry, why did he still want to take. away her virginity?
The Sommer family didn’t care about her. Now, even Michael was the same.
In this world, she would always be redundant.

However, since Michael had already decided on Winry staying in the mansion would only make things awkward. Besides, she still had someone to find, so leaving would be for the best.
Taking a deep breath, Josephine hopped back to her room on one leg to pack her bags.
Zendaya sighed heavily and helped her upstairs.
She was fond of Josephine and wished for her to stay.
There wasn’t much to pack. Josephine quickly gathered her belongings. She didn’t take anything except the dress he had gifted her.
That dress was the last gift her mother had left her before passing away,
Carrying her luggage, Josephine stood at the door and waved goodbye to Zendaya and Jorvan.
“Zendaya, Jorvan. I’m leaving! Thank you for taking care of me these past few days. I’ve left some pumpkin soup in the kitchen for you two. Make sure to finish it by today. As for the gift prepared for Mr. Jaywalker, I didn’t get a chance to give it to him. Please hand it over for me.”
