She Got A Better Man

Chapter 44

After capturing the aftermath with her phone-a trio of kidnappers knocked out cold and two critically injured-Elvira quickly sent the video evidence to Amber through WhatsApp.

Then, pain throbbing through her, she exited the vehicle and decided to leave the scene, wary of any accomplices lurking nearby.

She hailed a cab back to the school to find Marsh.

Her phone rang; it was Zach. She answered, "Hey, Zach."

"Elvira, where are you?" His voice was thick with urgency. To him, the brief separation for 10 minutes had felt like an eternity.

"I'm in a cab, heading to pick up Marsh and then off to the hospital," she replied, her voice betraying none of the turmoil she had just endured.

To her, there was no point in worrying him with the details of her abduction, now that she was safe.

Despite her omitting the kidnapping from the conversation, Zach was frantic with worry. "Tell me where you are. I'm coming to get you."

"Let's meet at the school," she suggested, her head throbbing from the side effects of the sedatives she had countered with Olivia's antidote.

Then, she hung up the phone. Zach, gripping the wheel tightly, issued commands to Spike to deal with the mess and ensure those who targeted Elvira paid a steep price.
