The sound of Eleanor's voice sends a shiver down my spine, and my hair stands on end.
"You better not breathe a word about what I'm about to tell you to anyone, especially your low-life girlfriend, because you know I can and would kill her."
She warns, her tone cold and menacing. I totally believe that she wouldn't hesitate to kill me. All I need is a verbal confession to the Alex situation and then I'll stay the hell away from that family!
Well , Zayn isn't included , but his parents! The phone is on loudspeaker, and Zayn reaches to take it off, but I give him a look that stops him in his tracks. He dares not move a finger.
In this tense moment, I am frozen, my heart pounding in my chest. Eleanor's threat hangs in the air, and I am desperate to hear what she has to say, despite the fear creeping up inside me.
Zayn's loyalty is divided between me and his mother, and I can see the struggle in his eyes.
