(Freya's POV).
The doctor said that Theo committed suicide. There were no signs of murder or coercion. The handwritten letter he left for me was in his handwriting.
Everything still feels like a dream to me. Yesterday, Theo was still smiling at me, still talking about us moving in together. Starting a new life and forgetting everything that had happened.
I didn't expect him to choose this way. Or maybe I was just insensitive to his feelings.
I felt Jason's hand tighten around my shoulder. Trying to calm me down.
It's been more than two hours since I sat beside Theo's grave. Just silently crying without making a sound. I just didn't want to leave him alone. If I could, I wanted to catch up with him.
"Fey, you haven't rested since yesterday. Let's go back home. We can come here again tomorrow," Jason said in his low voice.
I stayed still, ignoring his words. I didn't have the energy to move. I just wanted to stay here without caring about anything.
At that moment, from a distance, I saw Devan's figure coming with his family. My anger exploded again and I stood up hastily. I clenched my fists and glared at him.
"What are you doing here?!" I snapped. I approached him, pushing his body, hitting him repeatedly to unleash all my emotions and anger on him. I didn't care if it was seen by Devan's family.
"Fey, don't." I felt Jason pulling my body away from Devan, but I insisted on beating Devan again, even slapping him roughly.
Now, I didn't care anymore. My life was already ruined. Even my feelings for him had vanished since I lost Theo.
I looked at him contemptuously with hatred in my eyes.
"Get out of here. You have no right to be here, you murderer!" I shouted. I could see Devan's family was shocked by my words. "After what you did to us, you still dare to show your face here?! Go away!" I pushed his body so hard that he stumbled backward.
"F-Fey, what did you just say?" Aiden spoke. I glanced at him, then looked back at Devan sharply.
"He killed my brother. He killed him for revenge!" I shouted. "He hurt me so much, to intentionally marry me for his revenge. Are you happy now?" I smiled wryly. "He's already lying dead on the ground. You should be happy that your revenge has been realized. Or ... do you wish I would die with my brother?"
"Fey," Jason whispered beside me, trying to calm me down.
"You ... Even though you've taken your revenge. I swear, Dev. You will receive your karma. I swear that with every pain and hatred I feel, you'll get back many times over. Even in the next life, it will continue until my hatred for you is gone." I clenched my hands into fists. My tears flowed freely without me realizing it.
I don't know why my chest hurt when I swore at him. And he just stayed silent as if he accepted it all. Even though there was so much hatred, there was still love there. It made me feel humiliated and disgusted with myself.
"What revenge? What do you mean?" Aiden tried to approach me, but I moved backward to avoid him. "Fey?" he looked disappointed by my rejection.
I bit my lower lip, regretting my attitude towards him, but hating Devan, I didn't even want to deal with all things Devan anymore.
"You just ask him what he did to us," I said in a cold tone. I continued to stare at Devan. I wanted him to remember every hateful look I gave him. This disgust, this sickening feeling.
"Dev, explain!" snapped Aiden. He glared at his brother.
I just watched in silence as he didn't speak at all.
"Why are you silent? Are you ashamed to tell the truth in front of your family what you did to me and my brother?" I asked in a mocking tone. "Tell them! Tell them how badly you treated us, Dev!" I grabbed his collar again in a burst of anger.
"Fey, enough. Stop it," Jason said. I felt him pull my body. Hugging me tightly. "If Theo sees this, he'll be devastated."
I sobbed. Squeezing Jason's arm. "You didn't even say sorry after what happened. You're not human, Dev. I hate to love a man like you. I hope you'll never be loved by any woman because you don't deserve it!"
"You better get out of here, Dev. Don't make things complicated. After what you did, do you think she'll calm down? Please stay away from Freya. She's already suffered too much," Jason said.
"Damn it. at least explain to us what happened!" shouted Aiden. "What did Devan do to Freya?"
"It's about Greyta. Freya is Theo's sister. Greyta's former lover is in prison. And Devan married Freya for revenge. Some time ago Theo got out of prison, but yesterday he committed suicide by hanging himself in his house."
"W-what?" I could see Aiden's face pale. "Dev?!"
I clenched my fist. "I'll send you our divorce papers and never show your face in front of me again. Because I'm sick of seeing the face of the man who killed my brother."
I swallowed my saliva with difficulty. Trying to stand up straight.
"Jason, let's get out of here," I said, walking past Devan and his family.
