Chapter 53 Sold
“Five thousand Francs, Ruby is worth nothing more than a five thousand bank note. Just look at her, she is so terrible, and she deserves that payment, more than that, there lady isn’t worth much. Now, tell me you are going to pay,” Ethan spat out disdainfullym
The look on both Ruby and Xavier’s faces is one never to forget about, it was terrible, and there is nothing that can be done about it. To Ruby, she burst out crying because Ethan had downgraded her, like seriously, even if he is being paid, that money is just a peanut to him as compared to his actual worth, this means that he truly doesn’t want to sell her, yet he wants her to suffer her life out. This is not just funny at all.
On Xavier’s part, he felt humiliated that the lady was being given out for such a prize, it is more like a bargain to safe the lady, and the prize was this ridiculous. He could barely think of anything ready, so much that all he wanted to do now is to challenge the young man in front of him by paying the prize he demands of him.
“You are kidding me right? I mean who would want to deal with a person like you? what if you are just bluffing, for heaven’s sake?” Xavier asked raising his brows.
He could barely think about how things work, they barely made any sense and the more he glared at the man in front of her, it did not end up the way it had started.
Ethan on his part had a very stern look, there is no way that he could make Xavier, think like things are normal, it more, he is just joking. Instead, that is not the case, he did not ask the five thousand francs because he truly wanted the money, instead, it was just for pure fun, and he wanted to get rid of Ruby, but with a back plan in his mind.
Smiriking, Ethan glared at the man and as he opened his mouth, he let the words came out of his mout like silk.
“Do I look like I am joking? if it is not the deal then you leave, u have a lady to punish,” Ethan spat out disrespectfully.
Indeed, this was just the peek of Ethan’s insolence that Xavier could take from this insolent man, and as he stared at the mah for a while, he did not want her to beat the lady anymore, like seriously, it hurts him so much because the lady looked like she has undergone a lot in the man’s hands, truth be told, men like him should have to be put on trial and killed or more, put In prison for harrassment, that was needed, and the pain from it is just so much, and he feels her psin as well.
To Xavier, he had wits, and today was now the time to use it to the fullest. Putting his hand in his pocket, the young man removed his wallet, and then, opening it, he removed a bank note of five thousand francs and stretched his hand towards Ethan.
“Here, I want you to take this money as leave the lady alone, okay? just leave immediately, I do not know want you here anymore, you can leave then, the lady is mine,” Xavier spat out.
His voice was thick, he meant everything he said, and the look on his eyes is one that no one could even imagine it. That was awkward but then, if only the goddamn man would collect the money, then he doesn’t think it would be that much of a drama now.
Starting at Xavier, Ethan wondered if it was worth it to collect the money, for a second, he didn’t want to take it, but then, what more can she do about it? nothing, absolutely nothing at all.
“What if I say I do not want the money, why will you do to me?” Ethan asked raising his brows but then, the look on Xavier’s face was just so awkward. He felt like he was going to fight him, but then, he felt like he was going to give him a blow on his face, the look was to kill, and it is one that Xavier couldn’t do without it.
Xavier gave a look on his face, it is one that felt like the young man in front of him wouldn’t go with it free, not at all.
“Nothing, but then, you have named your price, thus, here is the money, you can have it huh? grab it then, I want the lady,” the man muttered out aggressively as the look on his face was just one to kill, in fact there is more to Xavier’s heart than what he has said already, and the look on his face is one that might go a long way if it continues like this.
Ethan thought about it for a while, and as if he had changed his mind, he grabbed the note from Xavier’s hands. He knew who he was dealing with, Xavier Barley, but the man barely knew who he was or what he does, in fact, he did not give her any reason to suspect him in anyway, and he was just laying the foundation to his trap, it is going to be a big shock, one that the Idiot will leave to regret, and only Ruby will be a pathway to that, he is going to use her as a channel to get in contact with the man and unless she helps him, he will find a way to track her down. In case that is ever done, the lady might live to regret it, and he faintly knows about that. Heaving a gentle sigh, there is nothing more that could be done right now, and the joy from it is just too much, more that what he has expected.
“Ruby is yours,” he spat out smirking like a fool.
” Come let’s go……. ” Xavier said walk-in towards Ruby.
His eyes were as bright as that of a bulb. As he was sending his right hand towards the direction where Ruby was standing at that particular point in time.
Ruby listening to all what Xavier had just said to her was being just so scared as well as she was no longer herself. She felt like her soul was no longer with her and it was simply just her body that was actually standing there at that time.
All what she needed was some one to console her and be nice to her as well. And not some one who will buy her just like Xavier had just done.
Ruby was just so disappointed in Ethan as she could not still get to believe that Ethan had really sold her out to some one that she does not even know at all. That was actually the peak and the hight of wickedness as it was actually at that moment when Ruby had finally discovered and accepted that, Ethan was really a very heartless person.
That was actually because, he went as far as to the point not selling her out. That was nothing else but inhumane as Ruby was crying endlessly with out stopping even for a second.
Seeing that Xavier kept on coming close to her, she instantly took a step behind as she decided to talk to him shouting from the top of her voice.
” No. Stay away from me. Do not even try to touch me. ” Ruby said with a very loud voice adding some few steps behind her.
As she was actually being very scared due to all what had actually happened at that particular point in time. She was really bent on not following Xavier back home.
But Ruby was so conscious as well that, there was literally no way that Xavier could ever leave that place with out taking her along side with him. That was actually because, Xavier had finally bought her and there was no way that he could get to waist the money that he had actually use in order to buy her.
Xavier seeing all what Ruby was doing did not really take any of it very serious as he actually kept on coming close to her. Ruby being extremely tired about the fact that, Xavier kept on coming close to her no matter all what she had been telling him had decided to start shouting at once with out even hesitating.
” I said you should stay back. ”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Ruby said as she kept on shouting endlessly with out stopping. There was literally nothing that she could do at that moment because, she felt like all what she was actually saying to Xavier that day were all going in vain.
As she now stopped shouting and decided to stand on one position. Ruby was literally so sick and tired of every single thing that Xavier was doing at that time.
” You really don’t listen to any thing I say. Do you? ”
Ruby said with a very moderate voice as she was actually being just so tired of the nagging attitudes that Xavier was giving her at that particular point in time. She was being just so exhausted.
After haven being beaten up by Ethan. It was actually a very stressful thing for her at that particular point in time. She was being just so tired at that time.
Xavier looking at the way Ruby was displaying in front of him. She was actually being just so unhappy with the whole situation as she did not really want to go out with him at that time. The only problem was that, Ruby was not able to run away from that place where she was at that time because, she was actually being paralysed at that time because, it was actually because of Ethan at that particular point.
With every single thing that Ethan has been doing to me, I will never ever find a place in my heart to forgive him. There was literally no way that I could ever get to forget all what he had done to me.
That is simply because, all the brutality and pains he has been causing to me has actually made me to be just so stronger and stronger like never before. As I have learned how to face my own situations alone as well as to bare the different consequences of the actions that I take all the time.
The wound Ethan has actually left in side of me is very deep as I could feel the empty space that was actually found in my heart. How ever, it was actually some thing that could never ever be forgotten my any single person. At least, I keep on praying and hoping to God that every single thing that had caused the empty space that was found in my heart at that particular point in time should get to finally heal one day.
As I was actually being so bent on not allowing any man in to my life again after having the severe beatings from Ethan at that particular point in time. Any way, it could be better if every single thing was all just a dream and only a dream because, I could be very happy to wake up from this night mere being just so happy and excited at the same time. As well as knowing that all the suffering and pains that I was feeling was actually over.
After having stood there and watch carefully and keenly how Ruby had vehemently refused to follow Xavier back to his house along side with him, Ethan was already sick and tired of that strong behavior of hers. As he instantly decided to intervain in to the situation once more and talk to some sense in to Ruby’s head.
” Xavier, please let me talk to Ruby for some time. ” Ethan said with a very moderate voice as he approached them instantly.
