Adriana's knees froze on the spot not knowing what to make of the scene which was being portrayed in front of her right now. What kind of psychotic student would do this? Adriana's jaw clenched looking at the blood that was dripping from the woman's gut which did not sit well with her in the slightest. The sight was truly irritating and disgusting.
She wanted to step away but before she could take another step, someone was quick to stop her and the person was no other than Chris as he held her wrist to have her turn to meet his eyes which were glaring at her as he looked pissed.
"and where do you think you are going" he asked her and even though it was a simple question, it sent shivers down her spine with the unnerving way he had said it.
But maybe she was at fault. She had kept going against him throughout the entire day as if she were the one who employed herself. This employee of his needed to be taught a lesson. Thought Chris in his mind as he did not let go of the girl's wrist.
"I am not going anywhere I just want to step away from here a little," Adriana said In all truthfulness not wanting to have anything to do with what was going on here right now.
"and who gave you the permission to do so?" questioned Chris unimpressed with the answer she had given him.
Adrina wanted to reply to him but she felt dizzy all of a sudden and she had to hold her head for support in order not to trip or fall.
Holding her head did not help much as the sudden rush of adrenaline kicked in which was enough to knock her out.
Meanwhile, in the headmistress's office, Mrs Sherlock who had been peacefully relaxing her head in the office got disturbed from the heaven she had been enjoying by the news of the teacher who was hung on the tree with a threat warning written on her forehead.
"What do you mean Mrs. Holmes is dead? If this is another one of your pranks, I am not in for it" Mrs Sherlock said to the first-year teacher who had delivered the news to her while his knees slightly trembled as he was the one they had made as the sacrificial lamb to relay the information to her. He knew Mrs Sherlock would probably kill me.
After a great amount of seconds had passed by, a frown came to settle on Mrs Sherlock's face once she had seen that Mr Thomas did not appear as someone who was joking and this was enough to make her jump on her feet, her hands slamming on the table in front of her as she glared at Mr Thomas who immediately bent his head to look at the floor.
"Are you telling me now that I have incompetent teachers!!" Mrs Sherlock half yelled. The earlier comfort and smile in which she had some minutes ago had completely disappeared as worry now marred on her face.
"I think it is a student who did it" Mr Thomas quickly said while still not looking up. He didn't dare!
Mrs Sherlock held her breath in as she closed her eyes trying to calm down. "How bad is the situation" Mrs Sherlock questioned once her eyes were now opened and Mr Thomas now raised his head up to look at her.
"From the looks of it, it seems like she was killed through mind control which only means the student who did this isn't a newbie and purposely left the evidence for us to trail" hearing Mr Thomas say this only made the hair on her eyebrow deepen. It seemed like they had started having rebellious ones. Thought Mrs Sherlock to herself.
Far away from BORON school and away from any drama, Adriana who had been unconscious for a while now opened her eyes slowly to be met with a familiar scent.
She used her hand to support her head as it was still aching and while she looked around, she wondered if she had been dreaming.
She did faint, didn't she? But why was she back in her room? Adriana questioned in her mind but there was no one to answer her as she was alone.
It couldn't have been a dream, she remembered going to work and meeting some of Chris friends and after that was this crazy and almost unbelievable incident and then she had fainted! Yes, she had fainted but who brought her here?
Adriana's face turned pale immediately she had analysed the possibility of who had brought her here. How was it possible that he got in?
She had left the key inside the flower vase which was placed outside how did he find it? Adriana couldn't help but wonder as she attempted to go and have a look if he was still around but the sharp pain she felt around her stomach was enough to keep her still on the bed as she held her stomach wincing in pain.
This useless body!!
Adriana cried out In pain but nobody was around to console her. Her mother wasn't here with her to tell her that everything was going to be okay. The pain was too much and it felt as if she was dying but she had to bear it alone, was this how Vanessa had always felt?
Going back, she did remember when Vanessa had told her what had spite her into doing what she did but Adriana couldn't remember any of it. She could not remember falsely accusing any girl to the point where her body had to be swapped as a punishment for it.
Meanwhile, a few weeks back.
Adriana got down from her car along with Rose who now stood beside her as they made their way into the famous hotel which was owned my Rose's dad.
Her heels clicked on the marble floor and while they walked in, the workers couldn't help but turn their heads to look at the girl who had just entered as their eyes zeroed in on her envying her perfect curves and beautiful body. It was hard for someone not to see her and want what she had.
"Trust me, my dad would most definitely talk when he sees you in these heels" Rose commented as they made their way inside the elevator. She came with her friend to gift her father his birthday gift which would probably come as a surprise to him and she couldn't just wait to see his face when he saw her and her friend.
"I doubt it, your dad has a very high sense of dressing style to condemn what I am wearing" Adriana replied almost nonchalantly as she was right. She had seen the man a few times and she would have commended him for his good dressing style if he didn't always have this grumpy look that she loathed.
Rose only hummed in response and as they came out of the elevator which had taken them to the first floor, Rose told her friend to wait for her in the corridor while she went to tell the receptionist to inform her to tell her dad that she was here.
Adriana nodded in response as she patiently waited for her to come back in which she did after a few minutes and the both headed inside her dad's office.
They placed a knock on the door and Adriana could clearly hear the old man's grumpy voice. "Come in"
Rose who was too excited to surprise her dad quickly made her way in followed by Adriana who had a passive expression on her face. She had only come for her friend and nothing else.
"Rose?" The man's shocked expression came on his face as he looked at his daughter who ran to hug him and a pleasant smile came to settle on his lips. Her parents were divorced so the little opportunity she had to see her dad meant so much to her.
"Happy birthday dad" Rose said, disengaging from the hug while tapping on his cheek and Mr Grayson couldn't be any more happier.
"Happy birthday Mr Grayson '' Adriana also wished him, faking up a smile but some parts of it were genuine.
Mr Grayson who had been busy with Rose now raised his head up to acknowledge Adriana but she could very well see the grumpiness in his face making her roll her eyes.
It was no wonder Mrs Lawson left him. Smirked Adriana as she watched the two display their daughterly and fatherly love to each other with Rose presenting a car key for his birthday gift.
She noticed they wouldn't be leaving anytime soon and was already getting bored and tired of staying there . She excused herself while giving them a reasonable excuse and she saw herself outside.
She went back to the last floor wanting to take a look around the number one famous hotel in New York as she moved her feets around not minding the eyes that were looking at her.
She was used to people staring at her by now to which she didn't mind.
She made her way into a quieter place where guests weren't trooping around. She was aiming to go and relax at the pool side but she wanted to find it herself not knowing her curiosity would only lead her into seeing something despicable.
It wasn't long that she started exploring the hotel did she get lost as she tried to look for her way back taking a route in the hope that she would find her way but it didn't just lead back to the main reception. And there was no one around to guide her through.
She was still figuring out her way when she heard light moans coming from afar making her eyes narrow.
Was she hearing things? Adriana questioned in her mind as she moved towards the direction she heard the sound coming from. She noticed a door which was slightly ajar making her wonder if there was someone inside and as she went to peek, her eyes flew open instantly on the sight before her.
She quickly retracted her steps so the people in there wouldn't see her as she tried to wrap her head around what she had just seen.
That...that was Rose's boyfriend!! With another girl?!
