Ava ignored the party of three. She had just walked a few steps inside the living hall, the laughter died down and her heartbeats elevated. Before she could even reach the staircase, she felt a strong tug at her arm.
'Pak.'
The dizziness worsened, Ava was inflicted by a new pain causing her ears to buzz with a weird sound. Before she could clearly see the beautiful face of her seething mother, Ava fainted.
'Thump.'
Instead of worrying about why Ava was in that state, her mother ordered the maids to drag the unconscious girl out of the villa. Of course, the maids did what was ordered to them. They had held Ava's hands, dragged her on the floor, out of the villa, down the few steps, and left her on the ground.
Another maid had brought a tub of water and handed it to Shane Kelly who had asked for it. He splashed the water on Ava, jolting her awake. She coughed hard to catch her breath.
