Chapter 475 Domestic Violence
When Josie opened the studio doors the following day, she saw Laura, who was there
early. Laura was sitting under the sun, and her excellent figure was seen. She looked up
when she heard a noise. “Hey. You’re early, Ms. Warren.”
Josie didn’t smile. She approached Laura and carefully examined Laura’s face. Laura had
deliberately put on a thick layer of foundation, and her injuries couldn’t be seen. She was
in long sleeves and long pants, and everything was hidden.
“Why are you looking at me?” Laura smiled. The next moment, Josie pulled Laura’s wrist
and lifted her sleeves. Bruises and scars covered her delicate and fair arms.
Laura’s smile became slightly awkward. “What are you doing?”
“Which were caused by you? And which were by him?” Josie finally asked, incensed.
Laura was dumbstruck. She concealed the dejection in her eyes and turned. “This is
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcommon in a wealthy household. I received something I shouldn’t have, so I naturally
should pay the price.”
Josie didn’t understand, and she raised her voice. “He pursued you and married you
extravagantly back then. Don’t belittle yourself, Laura.”
“I begged him to.” Laura interrupted her, and Josie was startled. “There was trouble at
home, and I didn’t have money. Mr. Carter and Mr. Russell helped me, and I wanted more
just in case, so I called Summer and asked to borrow money from her, but she didn’t lend
me anything.”
“We’ve been good friends for many years. I always looked out for her while she wasn’t in
the country, and thought she would help me no matter what. But I never imagined she
wouldn’t consider my feelings as much as you did then.”
Josie was astonished when she heard it.
She didn’t think Summer was such a petty person.
Laura took a deep breath. She seemed to have guessed what Josie was thinking. “Summer
is very selfish and only approaches people who benefit her. She disregarded me once I
was of no use to her. I was abandoned.”
“I had no other way, and I met Calvin under those circumstances. He pursued me in the
past, so I could only give in.”
Laura smiled as she spoke. “I can feel that he really likes me but looks down on me. After
getting married, Zach explicitly and implicitly told me not to work. If I spoke to any other
man, he would inexplicably give me the silent treatment. After that, it slowly escalated
into domestic violence”
Josie was alarmed just by listening. She frowned. She could guess that Laura wouldn’t
concede with her arrogant and stubborn behavior, so the problems between the two would
only intensify.
“Aren’t you staying with the Olsen family? Mark and Summer are there as well. Don’t they
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcare?”
“Mark turns a blind eye to his son while Summer and I aren’t speaking. She won’t help me.
The whole family isn’t pleased with this marriage.”
“What about the servants?”
“Zach has a secret room in the Olsen Residence. He will usually drag me in there to hit
me. Even if the servants know, it’s useless.”
Josie felt weak. “Can you get a divorce?”
A thought had occurred in her head. Laura can’t continue in this marriage.
Laura looked at Josie gratefully. “Not for now. Don’t worry. He has a mistress and doesn’t
return home often. It’ll be alright if I’m careful.”
Josie was still worried and paced in the office. She still thought it was wrong and hesitated
before texting Matthew. ‘Matt, do you know any reliable psychologists in the hospital?‘
