The Merman, My Man by Black Velvet Chapter 25

Gary clamped his grip down onto my shoulder and forced me to look directly at him. I was shocked that

he had an expression of regret on his face.

“Linda, I warned you not to get too close to the merman, didn’t I? Why didn’t you listen to me? Even

then, I wasn’t expecting something like this to happen! Please remain calm and don’t do anything

stupid! “

“What do you mean remain calm?“ The words Gary said made it sound like I wanted to murder

someone and it confused me.

I rubbed my aching thigh and said angrily, “Since when am I not calm, if there’s anyone that isn’t calm,

it’s you. You hurt me like a madman! “

Gary couldn’t hide his surprised expression, so I took the opportunity to escape from his grip and

tolerated the pain as I got off the bed. But as soon as my feet touched the floor, a wave of pain surged

throughout my entire lower body and I almost collapsed.

I rushed to sit in a chair by the bed, I held my abdomen, gritted my teeth and I said, “Damn it, why does

it hurt this much…“

“Other than repeatedly saying that you’re hurting, don’t you have anything else to say? Wow, I really

admire you.“

I didn’t want to care about Gary’s strange words but he pinched my chin and forced me to face him. He

was always manipulating me and I couldn’t stand it anymore. So I elbowed him and scolded him, “Get

away from me you pervert. I don’t want to talk to you.“

Gary didn’t even bother trying to avoid my jab and just took the blow. He stared at me for a while as

though he had suddenly realized something. His nasty expression gradually subsided as he said, “

Linda, let me ask you something. It wasn’t consensual and so you selectively erased that part of your

memory, didn’t you?“ Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Selective amnesia?

Gary’s words made me calm down. My memory did seem to be cut off from when I was in the reservoir.

I had a hunch that Gary knew something I didn’t.

I nodded. “Yes, I don’t remember anything since right after I entered the reservoir. Do you know what

happened? Did I hurt myself during that period of time?“

Gary fell silent. He kept rubbing his hands together, it looked like he was thinking whether or not he

should tell me. His expression suddenly became odd, it seemed like he realized something. His neck

and ears started to turn red and his breath also became labored. His expression switched back and

forth between anger and pleasure while he breathed heavy breaths.

Then finally, he gulped as he scrutinized my body with his hungry eyes.

After seeing him like this, I inadvertently clutched onto my hospital gown and warned him, “Gary, what

on earth happened?“

Gary stared at me for a long time before he slowly said, “I don’t know“

He was definitely hiding something from me, his reaction just now looked like he had just watched p*r

n! I didn’t dare to pursue this matter further because his reactions right then were rather strange. One

moment he was furious, the next moment he was giving me obscene looks. I was afraid that something

extreme would happen if I were to ask any more questions and that I would wind up getting hurt.

If I wanted to know what happened, I could ask Peter instead.

Gary saw that I didn’t react and suddenly said, “ There are surveillance cameras in the reservoir. You

can see for yourself what happened last night.“ After that, he took a black hard disk out from his pocket

and tossed it at me.

I caught it mid-air. I didn’t know why but I felt unsettled, I had a premonition that the footage would

show something terrible. I even felt my subconscious telling me to throw the hard disk away because I

wouldn’t want to see what was on it.

Although the subconscious feeling was rather strong, the desire to know what happened was even

stronger. In the end, my desire triumphed. I anxiously opened my laptop and plugged in the hard disk.
