Chapter 59- Stabbed

The police were closing in on Nora, ready to cuff her and take her away. Panic crept into her as she shot daggers at Tessa with her eyes, intense anger and hatred brewing within her.

‘No. This is not the end… I can’t go down like this!’ She exclaimed in her mind.

Where did it go wrong? Tessa was the one who was supposed to be in trouble. Aaron was supposed to hate her and get her arrested!

Nora couldn’t accept that things had turned out this way. All this time, she hadn’t tried anything intense to fight for Aaron’s love apart from dropping hints at Aaron here and there. How could she fail in her first attempt to teach Tessa a lesson?

She breathed heavily, her stomach twisting violently, knowing if she went with the police, she would never get released. She would end up rotting in jail while Tessa would have the time of her life with the man she had fallen in love with.

Aaron was unforgiving and often released his wrath on those who crossed him. Nora knew that she was doomed and there was no escaping for her.

Her eyes

lowered to a pen on the table and she acted quickly. Before the police could get to her, she rushed to the table, picked up the pen and lunged at Tessa violently.

“Die, bitch!”

Nora was aiming the sharp part of the pen towards Tessa’s throat. She had a vicious look on her face and her whole demeanour was oozing with murderous intent.

If she was going to spend the rest of her life in jail, she might as well make it worth it. Those were her thoughts as she threw caution to the wind and decided to end Tessa’s life.

Aaron saw her coming, his heart jumped to his throat and he immediately covered Tessa with his body just as Nora brought down the pen with sheer force.

A stabbing sound echoed around the room and the police restrained Nora while she screamed hysterically.

“I’m not going to jail! I’m innocent! She should be the one who should die!”

Nora’s eyes became rounder when she realised who she had stabbed instead of Tessa. “No! Aaron! I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to. It was meant for her!”

Everything happened so fast. Tessa gasped, her breath quivering when she heard a low grunt from Aaron. She stilled for a moment, trying to process what had just happened. It was only when she saw the pen sticking out of Aaron’s shoulder that a scream tore through her throat.

“Aaron! You’re hurt!”

Aaron shook his head and said, “I’m fine.”
