While I Was Bleeding Out, He Lit Lanterns For Her
As I lay on the floor of our manor, bleeding out from a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, I used my last ounce of strength to call my husband, Cole. I begged him for help, my vision blurring. But the only thing I heard was the clinking of champagne glasses and his mistress's giggle in the background. "Stop the drama, June," Cole snapped, his voice cold. "We're about to go on stage. Don't call again." He hung up, leaving me to die alone on the Persian rug while he accepted an award with another woman on his arm. I woke up in the hospital days later. My baby was gone. They had removed my fallopian tube. Cole finally arrived, smelling of expensive scotch and his mistress's perfume. He didn't hug me. He didn't cry. Instead, he leaned over my hospital bed, pressing his knee into the mattress until my fresh stitches tore open and bled. "You embarrassed me by calling an ambulance," he hissed. "My mistress, Alycia, says you're faking it. Clean yourself up." He left me bleeding again to go announce a $10 million donation to Alycia's "groundbreaking" medical research. I stared at the TV screen, numb. The research Alycia was taking credit for? It was mine. I wrote that patent years ago under a pseudonym. They thought I was just a poor, orphan housewife who needed Cole's money to survive. They had no idea I was actually a billionaire scientist hiding my identity. I pulled the IV needle out of my arm. A drop of blood fell onto the divorce papers I had been hiding. I didn't wipe it off. I signed my name right over it. Then I walked into the bank, reactivated my dormant account with $128 million, and bought the penthouse directly overlooking Cole's house. The mourning widow is dead. The avenger is born.Elvira Duncan blinked and slowly squeezed her eyes opened . Her head felt numb and her body was paralyzed.
She couldn't move her body as swiftly as she wanted.Because of this, a lone tear streamed down her cheeks.
Waking up from a coma after such a long time, she was bound to feel this way.
She got hit by a car,a week ago while trying to save her boyfriend, Jack Morris from an accident.
The accident was so severe that she fell into coma and the doctors lost hope of her full recovery.
However, a miracle happened and she opened her eyes within just a week.
Elvira and Jack met a few years ago while working on jewelry design contest in college .They quickly clicked and fell in love.
The couple planned to get married in two weeks.However, Elvira went into a coma before then.
Thinking of how Jack handled her accident while taking care of the company,she felt pity for him.
She simply wanted to get up to get things done for the upcoming Jewelry Design competition which will change their lives forever .
Winning this competition,will ensure that Jack get his hands on his family’s inheritance as well as mark his influence in the industry.
She didn’t want him to miss this chance because of her.
She wanted to make sure that Jack wins the contest.
Just as she attempted to move her body,Elvira heard familiar voices drawing closer to her room.
Elvira quickly laid back on the bed and pretended to still be asleep.
“Jack,I can’t wait any longer,let’s just get married already.How long are you going to continue waiting for this vegetable?"
The voice belonged to Chloe Miller.She was Elvira’s best friend.
They have been friends since first years in college.Elvira took it upon herself to help her pass out in flying colors.
When Elvira heard these words.She was immediately disheartened
Elvira couldn’t believe that her best friend was truly having an affair with her fiancé .
“You told me that you didn’t love her.How come you are still not married to me? If you continue like this,then I’m going to break up with you.Jack,I’m serious,if you don’t get a marriage certificate with me tomorrow,I’ll end my life!"
Chloe continued in a stern voice.Her eyes was teary and she looked serious.
“I’m going to become the best designer in Horington city after my new design wins an award.It will announce my status in the industry and tons of opportunities will come knocking on our doors.Why would you still need her?
“Celestial Group is going to become the top company in the entire Horington city after you won the contest in two days.You will also become a top designer.With this new status,we can be rest assured that we can take a leap without fear"
“However,how can we achieve this feat without Elvira? She is our golden ticket.Think! Get your mind to work,Chloe!" Jack held her hands and said,while looking into her eyes.
Chloe was speechless for a couple of seconds.It looked as if her sense organs had been struck by reality.However,the next splitting second,she angrily flung Jack’s hands away.
She pushed him away and pointed her fingers at his face and said,“Do you take me for a fool? How is Elvira of any help to us? She is just a vegetable.She can’t do anything"
Chloe looked at Elvira,lying helplessly on the bed as she uttered those words.
“This is all your fault.It was your fault that Elvira got into the accident.You shouldn’t have hired those men to attack her in the first."
Jack Morris glared angrily at Chloe.
The sound of his voice echoed through the room and Elvira went numb upon hearing these words.
“If you hadn’t hurt her then she would have been well and hearty.Infact,she would have completed the final touch of the designs."
“Not only that,we would gotten the final products of her designs.Now,we are stuck in this situation,thanks to you."
Jack looked frustrated.He glared furiously at Chloe.
“Wait,are you blaming me? I did everything because I loved you.I didn’t want her getting in between us.How could you blame me for this? Moreover,she is not even aware that I sent those men"
“Look here,Jack,you and I know that Elvira is not smart enough to decipher the reality before her.She won’t even think that I would do such a thing to her."
“Of course,she can’t think of it because I made it look like my rivals were after me and she took the fall for me."
Jack said as his eyes darted towards Elvira.
“Tell me,is that the reason you refuse to marry me? Have you suddenly fallen in love with her since she became your super heroine?"
Chloe asked,her expression changed.
“Not again,Chloe! I told you,we still need her to grow the status of the company"
