Chasing The Rejected

Chapter 62 

-CLARA- 

My heart was in shambles and Damon wasn’t making it any better 

er with how clingy he was. Despite the fact that I’ve tried pushing him 

away several times, he still stayed close, watching my every move. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

I turned to glare at him as he sat beside me while the doctor dressed my wounds for the third time that day since my wounds hadn’t healed and I was still bleeding. 

“You need to eat then rest Mrs Donovan” The doctor uttered and I turned to glare at him. 

“Get your facts straight, I’m no longer Donovan and I cannot sleep with this man staring at me” I muttered and the doctor and Damon both exchanged a look before the doctor sighed and left 

Of course he just left, who in the right mind was bold enough to tell Damon to leave this room? 

“You have to leave, Damon. She needs to rest” Delilah uttered as she walked into the room and I immediately smiled at her. She was the only one I trusted, her and Luca. They were the only ones who stood by my side during this whole thing and were the ones who truly cared 

about me. 

“I’m not leaving” Damon murmured, turning my attention to him and he was staring directly at me with a look in his eyes that I didn’t even want to understand. I glared at him but said nothing as Delilah sat down on the bed next to me. The doctor had warned me not to stress my vocal cords because it hadn’t healed properly. 

I visibly shivered as I remembered how horrible that night was. At least I was grateful to Damon for coming at the right time before that man could kill me even though if I had picked up when I called him earlier, none of this would have happened and I would still be pregnant. 

“So you’re just going to sit there and stare at her all day?” Delilah questioned and I turned to Damon just in time to see him nod before balancing himself property on the chair. 

“I have nothing else to do and I enjoy staring at her. Do you have a problem with that?” He questioned Delilah and I glared at him. I had a problem with that! 

I was too tired to fight him so I didn’t say anything. Delilah sighed and at that moment, the nurses brought in two trays of food with different varieties. As they placed it on the table, I noticed one of the maids ogling Damon and I hated how I wanted to wring her neck. 

because of that. 

She could look at him all she wanted, we weren’t together anymore. 

I turned to Damon and he had a slight smirk on his face as if he knew exactly what I was thinking and he probably did. Ughh I hated him. 

“You need to eat, Clara” Delilah murmured as she took a full spoon of the chicken soup which used to be my favorite but right now, I had no appetite so I shook my head at her. 

“Not… hungry” I muttered and she sighed. 

“But you need to eat to take your medicine. Here, just take a few bites” She murmured but I pursed my lips and shook my head stubbornly, 

“Eat or I’ll feed you. Do you want that instead?” Damon threatened and I turned to glare at him. He knew damn well that I would allow anyone but him to feed or be close to me. This jerki 

I let out a defeated sigh as I turned to Delilah and slowly opened my mouth. She happily began to feed me only stopped when I let out a loud groan. 

11:48 

Tue, 2 JUGA 

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry” Delilah hurriedly said as she placed the tray on the table next to Damon. 

“I’d like to rest now. 

You tan b 

both leave” I murmured, staring directly at Damon, I didn’t mind Delilah being there but I couldn’t stand 

Damon’s presence. 

“Leave us Delilah” He ordered and I turned to him with wide eyes. 

“You leave” I muttered but he wasn’t staring at me but at Delilah. 

She glanced between us then let out a defeated sigh. 

“I’ll be right outside, okay?” She murmured and I shook my head at her as I held onto her hand but she was able to pull her hand out of my grip as she walked out of the room. Soon after, I was alone again with Damon. 

“I don’t want you here” i murmured as he stood up. 

“Too bad, I’m here and I don’t plan on leaving” He walked closer to me and pushed me back gently so I was laying down on the bed before covering me with a blanket. 

“You shouldn’t be behaving like my husband when you aren’t I murmured and he scoffed. 

“Like it or not, I am your husband and I’ve already b 

burnt the divorce Papers so it’s invalid” He murmured and I glared at him. 

“I don’t want to be married to you anymore. I don’t like you” I murmured and he sighed. 

“Too bad, you’re stuck with me because you belong to me and only me” He uttered then leaned down and tried placing a kiss on my lips and as much as I wanted it, I turned my head to the side and avoided it. 

“You don’t just get to act like everything is okay when it’s not, Damon,” I murmured and bit my lower lip to stop myself from crying. 

*Clara…” 

“Now that you know I can give birth, you suddenly want me back?” I questioned. 

“I want yo 

you regardless of if you were able to give me a child or not” He uttered and I scoffed. 

“You were ready to leave me on the spot. You fucking sent divorce papers…” 

“Because I was angry and hurt, Clara. Yeah I know it was messed up but you lying to me hurt me and I felt betrayed. I hate betrayal more than anything but I never wanted to let you go. I tried convincing myself that that’s what was best and that’s what I wanted but a man can only lie to himself for so long. I know you hate me right now and I understand that. After you get better and the death of our unborn child settles down on you then I’ll give you the little space you need. I know you’re trying to push out that part from your mind, you are trying to think about anything but the death of our unborn child to avoid breaking down in front of me and everyone but I’m not leaving your side. You and I, we need each other right now. I need you right now and that’s why I’m not leaving“.
