Chapter 534 Did You Hear Me?

Chapter 534 Did you hear me?

Martha was a little overwhelmed by what Douglas said.

She bowed her head, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Douglas looked at Martha and said, "Sit down. Don't say anything that makes me angry. Otherwise, you won't be able to bear the consequences."

Martha didn't speak any more, just drooped her head, as if letting Douglas do what he wanted.

Douglas restarted the car and headed towards Martha's neighborhood.

When they arrived, a lot of people gathered downstairs, and the woman who called Martha was also there. When she saw Martha coming, she immediately greeted her, "Hey, Martha, you're here. I don't know which bastard did it. Go up and see what's going on."

After thanking the woman, Martha went upstairs.

It was better than she expected. At least, the door was not damaged too much, and the messy scene she imagined was also better than what she expected.

Martha inspected it. In this house, basically everything that could be smashed was ruined, and everything that could be damaged was also destroyed.

Probably because she had prepared psychologically, Martha was very calm about all the things in front of her.

However, for Douglas, it was a different story.

His face looked grim, and his expression seemed to show that he was about to kill someone.

Martha raised her eyes, and saw Douglas' expression, which made her stunned for a moment. After a while, Martha found her voice, "Mr. Torres, what's wrong with you?"

Douglas stepped on the mess on the ground, walked up to Martha, and said, "Can you guess who did it?"

Martha's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously wanted to avoid this question, but Douglas stared at Martha closely, as if trying to see through her.

With such gazes, Martha was oppressed, unable to answer this question at all.

However, Douglas did not give her a chance to escape.

He said, "Aren't you going to say it? Martha, do you really think I can't find it out?"

Martha's expression froze instantly. She looked at Douglas, and even her breathing stopped for a moment.

She looked at Douglas for a while, and then said with difficulty, "Can you not force me?"

Douglas' heart seemed to be grabbed by something, making him unable to breathe for a long time.

He looked at Martha, and wanted to say some harsh words, so that Martha could tell him honestly.

But, just for a moment, Douglas couldn't be cruel to Martha.

He said, "Martha, do you think I only see you as a tool for my work?"

Martha was taken aback when she heard the words, and instantly became a little overwhelmed.

She didn't know what Douglas meant by asking this, and she had always thought so.

However, she will not be unhappy about this. This was the relationship they should have, and she had nothing to be unhappy about. But, now that Douglas brought it up like this, it made Martha feel a little dazed.

She didn't understand what Douglas meant by this.

Martha just looked at Douglas blankly. The blankness and helplessness in her eyes seemed to stab a knife in Douglas' heart.

He didn't know what he was thinking, which made him feel that being looked at by Martha in the eyes made him so sad.

Douglas said, "Martha, even if I only regard you as a tool, you have worked for me for seven years. Do you really think that these seven years are not enough for me to have some feelings for you?" No matter how exploited and oppressed he was, seven years would move him.

Martha bit her lip and looked at Douglas with unspeakable sadness in her heart.

She didn't even know how to comfort Douglas, but that was exactly what she thought.

She had always put a great distance between them, and it had nothing to do with Douglas. It was purely because she really didn't think she deserved it.

Her past made it impossible for her to face Douglas so calmly, and she was even more afraid to think about so many things.

She always thought she was unworthy.

Martha lowered her eyes, her voice trembling.

She said, "Mr. Torres, can you not force me?"

Douglas fell silent, and could see clearly that Martha really didn't want to give him a chance.

He took a deep look at Martha, didn't say anything, but just turned around and walked out silently.

Martha watched his back and knew he was really angry.

She bit her lip tightly, trying to keep herself from crying.

She didn't want to lose face, not at all.

Regaining her composure, Martha began to tidy up the mess on the floor.

Fortunately, she didn't have any valuables. Otherwise, she would really be angry if she was made like this.

Halfway through tidying up, Douglas came in again. He originally wanted to tell Martha not to do it anymore, but when he saw her kneeling on the ground tidying up bit by bit, he couldn't help but stop. Douglas said, "Be careful with your hands. Don't get injured."

Martha was picking up fragments of a vase on the ground, and when she heard this, she paused, and her mind was affected a little more.

She nodded and said, "I see. I'll be careful."

Martha heard the trembling in her voice, and despised herself completely how useless she was, because his few words made her like this. Sniffing, Martha continued to tidy up.

However, she was still distracted by Douglas' words and cut her finger by the vase shards. Douglas heard her exclamation and hurried over, only to see blood dripping from her finger.

In an instant, Douglas felt enraged, which made him even look at Martha with extra cruelty. Martha heard Douglas yell at herself. "Didn't I tell you to be careful? Did you hear me!?" She stared blankly at Douglas, not knowing how to react for a while.

As if she was frightened by Douglas, Martha said after a long time, "Douglas, don't be mad at me. I really hurt. Don't do this to me."

As she spoke, Martha's tears fell uncontrollably.

In an instant, Douglas lost all anger, and for the first time, Martha was so vulnerable in front of him.
