The Trap Of Ace

Chapter 75

Read The Trap Of Ace By Eva Zahan Chapter 75 – The color of Arthur’s face drained. With wide eyes, he watched Ace in h****r.

“Y-you can’t do that to me! I won’t let you!”

I grimaced at the feeling in my stomach. The world around me started to spin.

Stepping back from him, Ace wrapped a hand around my waist. “I can and I will. You’ve seen my respect for you these years, and now you’ll see my enmity. You should’ve thought ten times before you joined hands with Antonio and decided to go against me and tried to hurt my Rosebud. You did what you wanted, now you suffer the consequences. May G*d send you to h**l. Goodbye, Arthur.”

“No! You can’t do that…”

Not being able to contain it in anymore, I clutched my stomach, hunched forward and threw up.

“S**t! Rosebud! Are you alright, baby?” Wrapping his arms around my shoulders, he pulled my hair back as the cops and Arthur jumped back from my puke.

“What the f**k!” Arthur screeched.

Looking up with watery vision, I found his legs covered with yellowish substances. A look of disgust twisted his features.

“Rosebud, baby, are you alright? What’s wrong?” Ace’s concerned voice sounded distant in my ears. Everything around me got blurred.

The black dots across my vision and the foul stench of vomit made me throw up again, before I slumped into Ace as darkness slowly engulfed me.

The next time I regained my senses, I found myself in a hospital bed with him tightly gripping my hand in his. The smell of bleach and white walls of the hospital room surrounded me.

“Rosebud?” Shooting up to his feet from the chair, he came up and sat beside me. “Thank G*d, you’re awake. I was going crazy thinking why it was taking you so long to open your eyes.”

“Ace…” The foul taste in my mouth made my stomach clench. “Water,” I croaked.

He didn’t waste a second before filling up a glass from the water jug that rested on the side table.

“Here, be careful,” cautioning me, he helped me sit up and held the glass against my lips. I drank it greedily, quenching my parched throat.

Then memories of my visiting Arthur in the j**l and then throwing up on him before fainting into Ace’s arms flooded into my mind.

As much as I wanted to laugh remembering his face when I threw up on him, I was confused about my getting ill all of a sudden.

“How are you feeling now, Rosebud? Do you still feel dizziness or nauseous?” he asked, his tone still held alert and concern.

I shook my head, giving him the empty glass back. “I’m fine now. I don’t know what happened. All of a sudden the world around me began to spin and then I had this intense urge to puke.”

He suddenly got abnormally quiet as he placed the glass back on the table. Stormy grey eyes were anxious.

There weren’t any doctors or nurses around. We were alone in the room.

“What happened? What did the doctor say? Did I have food p*******g?” I frowned.

It could be, considering the amount of food I had last night.

He didn’t say anything. Instead, leaning in, he kissed my forehead. “You should take some rest now. We can talk later.”

My frown deepened. “I don’t need rest. I’m fine now. You can tell me what the doctor said. Is it something serious?”

Nervousness now started to rattle inside me. Was there something wrong?

“Of course not, baby. Everything is alright. It’s just…” he trailed off, clearing his throat. “It’s just…”

“It’s just what?” I probed, getting restless.
