Chapter 133 - One Hundred And Thirty-three

Moments after Angelo had fallen silent the doctor arrived making her mentally groan. He would come in and start with all the crap of what happened in the past few weeks.

Yes, weeks. Shortly before the doctor's arrival, she had asked how long had she been there for. She had to know. 

Eight weeks.

It had been eight weeks since she had been kidnapped. She had been kidnapped for eight weeks. Angelo had taken eight weeks to find her, letting her suffer at the hands of those people who showed no mercy. Who hit her and who drugged her.

Who raped her...

Nope, not thinking about it, she immediately shook those thoughts away from her mind. There was no way that she was going to relive those memories. She had to forget about them, she had to just forget them and if that meant denying it and she would do it.

"Mrs Alessandro," the doctor nodded in greeting and she blankly stared at him hoping that he would go away. "I have your reports."

'Get lost fucktard', she blinked.

The doctor as a yes. He held reports is and started reading those. "I don't have any serious fractures that would take a long time to heal but I would recommend you bed rest for as long as you can where you can be completely moving without any pain. After that comes to bruises but they would fade away in a week or two at most. Then for the traum—"

"Stop." With raised eyebrows, the doctor meant mum immediately.

"Uh.. pardon ma'am?" He looked uneasy as he asked for what she meant.

"I said stopped. There is nothing to talk about. I'll take care of the fractured bones and the bruises, rest there is nothing to talk about." She muttered in a low voice but everyone heard her loud and clear.

The doctors immediately looked towards Angela waiting for his command. They had expected her to be nonchalant or simply ignore the matter as she was in denial but they had to ask him for permission.

Angelo nodded as he continued to look at his wife was looking outside the window. He somehow knew that she would love the view of the gardens.

"Anything else?" He asked the doctors.

The doctor not has attained at first but in the end, he shook his head no. Whatever was left could be talking about it and office without the patient who at the moment wanted nothing to do with her reports.

"No, sir." He immediately agreed to what the boss was hinting at. The two doctors that had arrived for telling her the analysis left and closed the door after them.

Angelo turned to her and spoke, "If you do not want to talk about it then we won't talk about it."

Alexis sighed in irritation, "how ironic. That is what everyone is talking about."

Angelo did not reply as he continued to caress his thumb over her hand. She was lashing back at them for various reasons over things and he understood why. She was pushing back at them, trying to be brave. It was only a matter of time before she had a breakdown. After that, she would become the exact opposite.

From independent and fierce to needy and dependent.

It was all a matter of time.

He continued to look at her in silence. She was not even looking at him. She looked like she had many other things to think about.

She did, indeed.

Alexis was thinking about the little memory that she had had a flashback of. Her mother had completely forgotten about including herself in her perfect family. Alexis was sure that the new baby would have completely replaced her. In fact, at that time, she completely had.

Her mother, nonetheless, could not get pregnant. Her eggs were too less and so were Thomas's sperms. At last, they had dropped the idea altogether and after that, her mother never asked her about her opinions on college again. Alexis after that one morning on the porch with her mother who was ignored as usual and picked upon by Thomas and Ashton just as any regular day.

That day Alexis realised how anyone with the closest level of proximity could turn their backs on her without feeling any kind of remorse. And there was nothing she could do about it.

And that brought her back to the present.

When her mother did not consider Alexis after when she was of no use to her who was Angelo to protect her when she could just be a liability on him. she was just his wife and as much as he claimed to love her there was no proof that it was her face in his heart.

Once again Alexis realised that she was nothing but naive and stupid.

Once again all she could do, was pity herself.

Angelo wondered what she was thinking about. What he could give to know what as happening in there.

She looked as if all the realisations were hitting her but what were they? He had to get his plan in action before the doctors could wash it done.

Alexis was strong. She did not immediately break down as soon as she woke up. Most of the victims would. She bravely started to talk ask for what she wanted.

That meant one thing.

Angelo had to step in. He had to make sure that she would fall as he desired. He would make her feel what he wanted her too. It was nothing that he had not done before. He wanted her to have an anxiety attack and she did. He wanted to her watch her steps everywhere she went and she did. She was afraid of everything then and now, he would make her feel so that she won't even think before flinging herself into his arms and kissing him.

That was what he wanted.

His wife is dependent on him.

And what he wanted, he got.
