Ariel found herself in the hospital hallway standing not far away from Damian. Who stood outside the operating room covered in blood.
“Where’s that witch? I heard my daughter-in-law was sent to the hospital because of you! Amelia Ford stared Ariel down
“My son didn’t love you, and then you came to kill my grandson! Why is your heart so wicked?” faced with such an accusation, Ariel trembled as she said, stuttering, “I didn’t… do… it.”
“Are you saying my son who saw you pushing her is blind? How could you be this wicked even if we didn’t treat the old man still treated you well. You shouldn’t have caused harmed in my grandson’s way because my son followed his heart and didn’t marry you, Ariel Ann, you’re vicious, you are evil.”
“No Aunt, it’s not like that.”
Suddenly, Timothy Ann and Tanya Albert appeared by the door with Tanya wailing and cursing Ariel.
“Here you are, just take a look at what your unwanted child did to my precious grandson. She’s vicious. Just because my son didn’t marry her, she plotted against the heir of our family”
“I didn’t,” Ariel retorted.
“Shut that filthy mouth of yours and stop denying it, Elvira is pregnant, but you pushed her and knelt on her stomach, isn’t it obvious that you want her to miscarry”. Amelia Ford shouted.
“That’s not true; I wouldn’t do something like th…”
“PA”
Just when she thought of explaining her own side of the story, Timothy Ann slapped her fiercely. Her head was knocked to the side and his fingers were visible on her face.
“Father, how could you hit me without listening to my own side of the story?”
“I’m not your father; you are nothing to me. Just take a look at my precious daughter lying there fighting for her dear life. I don’t have a vicious daughter like you.
As thunder roared in the distance, Tanya’s hatred reached its peak. In a fit of rage, she confronted Ariel in the dimly lit hallway.
“You evil child, how could you cause your sister to miscarry because Damian chose her over you? You’re nothing but pure evil”. The air crackled with tension as they all accused Ariel of Elvira’s miscarriage, their words dripping with venom.
Ariel denied the accusations, tears streaming down her face. Her accusers, however, were relentless in their anger. The confrontation escalated into a scene of chaos as they stood round her wailing and cursing, their words echoing through her head like a haunting melody.
Suddenly, the temperature plummeted, and the air turned icy. The dim light of a flickering bulb barely illuminated the space. She looked around only to find out she was the only one left standing at the edge of a grand staircase that seemed to ascend into infinite darkness undeterred, feeling left alone and deserted, Ariel ascended the stairs, each step echoing ominously in the eerie silence.
As she cautiously approached the door, she heard a faint whisper “Murderer”
Suddenly, the door disappeared, the walls moving closer, trapping Ariel in between the walls, the temperature dropped further. There were invisible hands crawling all over her body.
Ariel jolted and awakened, her heart pounding in her chest as if trying to escape its confines, beads of cold sweat clung to her forehead like tiny diamonds, the dim glow of her computer screen was the only thing that greeted her. She took a sharp breath, blinked rapidly, trying to shake off the dream that had just released its grip on her subconscious mind.
Ann villa,
Elvira clutched her stomach, feeling an agonizing cramp that seemed to tighten around her like a vice. She felt her vision blurred as she stumbled, desperately trying to find her way to a seat. Panic welled up inside her as she realized something had gone terribly wrong.
Her door burst open, and her manager rushed in. “We need to get you to the hospital.”
“No… they can’t find out I killed the baby” Elvira said as she winced in pain.
“Mr. Ford and your parent will soon be here.”
*Flashback*
Immediately the call with Rex Anderson ended, Elvira Ann paced nervously in her room, her fingers tapping nervously on the now arranged dressing table. She wouldn’t allow anything to come in between her and Rex. She took a deep breath and picked up her phone to call her manager., Vivian Derrick.
“I’m ready to get rid of the baby even if I want to put my career on hold, get me the abortion pill, don’t let anyone find out, pay off the doctor. I’ll call you once the pill starts working, so you can tell my family, tell them I slipped.”
“Elvira, why don’t I suggest you go to the hospital to get it out? Pills can be dangerous and have serious side effects, we can still go ahead with your plan”, her manger said coldly at the other end of the line.
“Please do as I say”
“Sure, I will personally send you the pills.”
With that, the assistant ended the call and Elvira gritted her teeth in anger that witch once all this drama is over, I would no longer need your service. Just wait and see.
End of flashback*
“Elvira, we’ve got to move, all you have to do is watch and warn your family not to let the news of your pregnancy slip”
“No.. no.. we can’t move now. Wait let Daman see for himself.”
Damian rushed in to see Elvira lying wriggling inpain. His heart ached.
“Save our bab…”
“Master Damian, we need to send the young miss to the hospital immediately.”
“How did this happen?” he asked, his eyes shooting arrows of flames.
“The young miss slipped. I called you immediately. I received her call”, the manager said firmly.
Damian hurriedly helped Elvira up “You will be fine, Elvira, I will send you to the hospital immediately”, Damian said, as he hurriedly headed towards the door.
“Vivian, I will be taking Elvira to the hospital now! Pack some clothes and other daily necessities for her. I’ve notified our parents they will be at the hospital soon”, Damian said as he rushed outside.
The manager quickly caught up with Damian and helped him to hold the door.
Elvira Ann, you’re such a foolish girl. Did I not tell you to go to the hospital to get rid of it? Hmm, don’t die, the drama is just beginning. You have to be alive to watch it. The manager thought
In the hospital, Damian Ford wasn’t allowed in the operating room. He closed his eyes in pain.
Timothy Ann and Tanya and other family member of the Ford arrive to see Damian soaked in blood.
