Chapter 54 Being Raped by a Stranger in the Hospital Room
Anna's POV
On our way to the hospital, someone dropped off some clothes, and Isaac grabbed them and tossed them into the car.
I was changing in the car while Isaac stood outside, chatting on the phone with a black umbrella in hand.
When I opened the car door, I caught him saying, "Got it, I'll be back in an hour."
Isaac turned around, all dressed in black with that black umbrella, looking even more cold and handsome than usual. When he looked at me, I saw a flicker of surprise in his eyes.
I was wearing a chestnut-colored Lolita dress. I wondered how he described me to get them to pick such a cute outfit.
The Rolls-Royce pulled up at the hospital soon after. During the check-up, the female doctor sternly told me, "Miss, your stomach isn't doing well. You need to eat on time. First, we'll reduce the inflammation, and then you need to take the prescribed medicine daily."
Then, she turned to Isaac. "What's your relationship with the patient?"
"Acquaintances," Isaac replied.
I was stunned. I didn't expect him to say that. But hospitals usually need accurate information for their records, so perhaps he felt he couldn't say anything else.
It felt like we were just familiar strangers who could never openly acknowledge our relationship, whether as family or otherwise.
Isaac arranged for my hospital admission, and I needed to stay in the ward for a day to get an IV drip.
When he pulled out that black card, the hospital immediately set me up in the best ward. I didn't realize that card could do more than just shopping; it came with perks.
The room was decked out like a luxury hotel and even had a private dining area.
After I started the IV drip, he was about to leave.
"Isaac..." I couldn't help but grab his hand.
I guessed the person he was on the phone with earlier was probably Tina. Even though I didn't want to stay with him, the thought of him going back to Tina filled me with an inexplicable fear.
If he completely fell for Tina, she would never let me go once she was with him. With Isaac's help, getting rid of me might be as easy as snapping her fingers.
Isaac let me hold his hand but didn't turn around. It wasn't until I coughed that he finally faced me. I held his hand tighter, almost completely covering his palm without a gap.
The thought of Isaac asking Tina to wait for him and the possibility that he might stay with her once he returned filled my heart with an indescribable, suffocating pain. They were a perfect match by nature, while I had always been nothing more than a background character.
Isaac could date and get engaged to Tina, but he was unmoved by my plea. "Please, Anna."
I couldn't help but sigh. Isaac was highly intelligent; he should easily see that I wasn't truly want to keep him. Tina, on the other hand, was always sincere and passionate towards him. Surely, no man could refuse a beautiful woman who was wholeheartedly devoted to him.
I reached out and hooked my arm around his neck. "That kiss isn't over yet."
Isaac couldn't help but lean down towards me, but just as he was about to kiss my lips, he suddenly stopped.
"Sorry, Anna." After saying that, he walked out of the room without looking back.
I stared at the ceiling in the dark for a long time, then called my grandmother, "Grandma, how is Mom today?"
"The doctor said her body functions are recovering, and she should be able to have surgery soon. Anna, don't worry, you need to be happy every day so I can be at ease." Grandma's voice was old and slow, with occasional pauses, but very kind.
I quickly replied, "I will, and I can take care of myself."
I always told Grandma that I was doing well and getting along with my classmates at school. But in reality, I was living in hell.
Probably because I was alone and bored, I soon fell asleep.
In my dream, someone stripped me naked and was violently thrusting into me. As the impact grew more intense. I slowly opened my eyes, but a black silk covered my vision, making it impossible to see who was in front of me.
"Sleep a little longer, it's not time to wake up yet," a hoarse voice I had never heard before sounded in my ear.
From his voice, I couldn't even determine his age.
He shoved a pill into my mouth and pushed my jaw, forcing me to swallow it.
I was almost in a semi-conscious state, only able to feel my body being manipulated into various positions and being violently thrust into.
He fucked me on the bed for a long time, then carried me to the coffee table, and then to the sofa without stopping his movements.
Even when he carried me to the bathroom to bathe, he didn't stop; he first had sex with me once in the bathtub.
As the drug's effect wore off, I gradually regained consciousness.
But at this moment, I had almost lost all my strength, only able to be held by the man, with my mouth covered, as he fucked me on the bathroom sink.
The man suddenly let go of me. I thought he had finally finished, but unexpectedly, he pressed me against the wall, sometimes playing with my breasts, sometimes kneading my butt as he fucked me from behind.
Finally, the man threw me onto the bed. After a wild sex, he placed a metal object in my hand and said, "This is your mother's, right? You should know what to do to benefit her."
"By the way, you can call me L. We'll meet again," the man added in a deep voice in my ear.
I untied the silk in front of my eyes and looked at the golden amulet pendant in front of me, tears streaming down my face.
This was something my mother never parted with, and I didn't expect it to be taken by him. He was clearly using my mother to threaten me.
Extreme pain and heavy fatigue tore at each other, and at some point, I fell asleep.
When I woke up, everything around me had been cleaned up, even the bed sheets I slept on. I didn't know if someone had deliberately ordered the cleaning staff to remove all traces, as there wasn't even a single hair left behind.
The man last night had always worn a condom and didn't let me scratch his skin with my nails, leaving no chance to get his DNA.
It was obvious that he wanted to leave no trace, as if he was sure I wouldn't dare tell Isaac about last night.
The next morning, I drifted through my classes in a daze, struggling to focus. After the last class, Susan came to find me. "Let's go, Anna. Jane and the others are waiting for us at the school gate."
I nodded. Although I wanted to rest, I knew I couldn't let Susan down. Recent events had made Susan very sad, and it had been a long time since I had seen her so lively.
As we approached the school gate, Jane was already waving at us from a distance. "Susan, Anna, over here!"
We got into Jane's teammate's car, and Jane, sitting in the front passenger seat, said to us, "Guess who I met at their club? Ella! She has now become one of the most sought-after racing goddesses in several clubs. Her endorsement fee for an event has apparently skyrocketed to tens of thousands of dollars. It's really surprising."
