Betrothed To The Cold Billionaire

39



Bianca was rather surprised and confused when she noticed Ariel wasn’t frowning anymore. Rather, she was smirking at her. It made her really surprised.

Then Ariel leaned in and whispered to her;

“Your lover is waiting for you.” That only increased her fears. She ran towards the empty classroom she had planned with Lucas to take Ariel to so they could threaten her.

The sight she met was so unbearable that she couldn’t help but scream out. She ran to where he was seated with his head bowed and crouched next to him.

“Lucas.” She called in shock and fear as she noticed the blood gushing out of his face. Her voice drew his attention so he raised his head so he could stare at her well.

“The plan didn’t work.” He muttered slowly with a bitter smile on his face.

“Forget about the plan. We need to take you to the hospital. You’re loosing a lot of blood.” She said as tears starred pooling out of her eyes.

“How can I forget?? Ariel has already humiliated me thrice in a row and I don’t even have anything I can use against her.” He muttered, his voice dripping with sheer annoyance.

“What about the photo??”

“What part of the plan didn’t work don’t you understand?? She didn’t take the bait!!” He screamed angrily, startling Bianca.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to yell at you. I was just angry with all that has been happening.” He muttered when he noticed the fear and shock in her eyes.

“It’s fine. I understand. But we need to head to the hospital. You are loosing too much blood.” She muttered as she brought out an handkerchief from her jacket pocket.

“I’m fine, it’s just a little scratch.” Luacs answered.

“This is nowhere close to a little scratch. More than half of your face is already covered with blood. Just listen to me and let’s go to the hospital for better treatment.” She cajoled as she used the handkerchief to wipe some blood away from his face without touching his wound as she feared adding to his pain.

“Don’t worry. I’m fine.” He said as he tried to stand up but missed his step and fell back to his position.

“Luacs. Can you olease stop being stubborn and just let me take you to the hospital. You need the treatment.” She pleaded.

“Fine but I have to cover my face. I can’t let anyone see me like this.”

“Why not?? Everyone need to know how you turned out like this. They need to know the type of psychopath they all worship.” Bianca said angrily.

“No. It’s very embarrassing to get beaten up by a girl like her and more embarrassing if everyone finds out. I would be laughed out wherever I go and everyone would loose their respect for me.”

“They already lost that respect the day that find out about our relationship.” Bianca muttered sadly.

“That’s why we need to pay Ariel back for everything she has done to us.” Luacs said.

“We’ll think about that later. For now, let’s take you to the hospital.” She said as she helped him to stand up.

She took off her jacket and placed it on his head so as to cover his bloody face before helping him out of the empty classroom. She was really glad that there was no one in the hallway as they walked out of the school building or she would have had a lot of explanation to do.

When they reached the school garage, she led him towards her car and opened the passenger’s door. She helped him seat on the chair before walking towards the driver’s seat.

She sat down before she started the car. Then, she drove off to the nearest hospital. They were attended to quickly by nearby nurses when they noticed how severe his injury was.

He was placed on a stretcher before they pushed him to a ward. Bianca wanted to follow them but they stopped her. She had to wait outside the ward till they were done with the surgery.

After waiting impatiently for some minutes with felt like hours to Bianca, the doctor on charge walked out.

“How’s he doctor??” Bianca asked with fear written all over her face.

“Who are you to the patient??” He asked back.

“I’m his girlfriend. Please tell me, how’s he??” She asked rather impatiently.

“You seem to be an high school student. I can’t divulge his medical status to you. You need to being his guardian here.”

“But I was the one that brought him to the hospital.”

“Doesn’t matter. That’s our policy in here. So please do us the favour of calling any of his guardian.” The doctor said and was about to leave when Bianca stood in front of him.

“Okay, I’ll call one of them but all I need to know now is if he’s doing okay. Is he fine now??” She asked again.

When the doctor noticed how worried she looked, he couldn’t help himself anymore.

“He’s fine. That’s all I can tell you right now.” He answered before he left.

It was as if a huge burden had been lifted off her shoulders. She was finally able to breath properly. The fear she was feeling earlier had finally left her body.

She picked up her phone in a bid to call Lucas’s mother. She was the only one bothered about Lucas’s wellbeing right how since the rest of the family that turned their back on him.

She was very close to Lucas’s mother as the middle aged woman knew about their affairs and even adored Bianca. After a few rings, the call was finally picked.

*LATER IN THE EVENING*

We had finally closed from school. I didn’t catch any glimpse of Bianca nor Lucas through out today and that was really surprising as I had expected Bianca to be on my neck by now.

Or have they decided to upload the photo?? I didn’t care of they did because I know I can’t be blamed for whatever that happened. He is my husband and he still forced himself on me so that isn’t my fault.

I picked up my school bag and walked out of the class with Sandy by my side. When we reached the school garage, I bid Sandy bye and walked to where my car was parked this morning but I couldn’t find it there.

What the hell!

After searching for few minutes but still couldn’t find it, I started to get really scared. What if someone had taken it?? But something like this has never happenee in this school. Besides, Steven isn’t here yet and that was really weird because he is supposed to be next to my car waiting for me by now.

I decided to call Steven first so I could get rid of the feeling I was having. I picked up my phone and was about to dial his number when I heard a car honking close to where I stood.

I lifted my head up only to see a black jeep in front of me. I figured I was standing in it’s way and was about to move away when I heard someone call my name.

That voice was so familiar. The back door opened and the person seating there climbed out of the car. That was when I saw him, standing handsomely in the black suit he was putting on.

“What are you doing here?” I voiced out in shock.

“To take you on a date.” He answered with a very gorgeous looking smile plastered on his face.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
