Chapter 198: BEING TOO KIND IS A SIN
Redmond scoffed when he heard Iris’ naïve words. He had never thought that he would actually hear such cheesy words.
What Iris said sounded too ’gentle’ for this harsh reality, she seemed to not understand the concept of how this world worked, such a naïve and sweet woman...
"Have you forgotten that he raped you? It’s that easy for you to forget?" Redmond enunciated every word clearly, so Iris wouldn’t miss a single word. He stared at her and watched how her expression changed when he reminded her again about it.
Will and Jace were seething when they heard what Redmond said, as they turned their attention toward Iris, whose face was blanched.
Jace couldn’t help but revive the memory when he caught Iris and Cane in the library. He could see how much pain she was in, but the only thing that he could do was to leave the scene, so his presence wouldn’t humiliate her further.
On another note, no one would be able to completely forget about such a dreadful experience. Of course, Iris remembered down to every detail of it now Redmond forced her to recall the memories that she tried so hard to bury deep in the back of her mind.
Iris took a step back. She was visibly trembling.
Even though it was not Redmond’s intention to cause her pain, he wanted her to think about it again. He didn’t want her to gloss over what Cane had done to her, although he treated her a little bit nice now.
Would it offset all those horrendous things that he had done to her? How weak her heart was to easily forget about it and pretend like it had never happened?
