Chereads / I will avenge her / Chapter 12 - He was attacked

Chapter 12 - He was attacked

I was going to live at Andrew's house permanently now.

I spent my last few days, at my house while my things were slowly being packed.

It was really enjoyable. I wish I could spend a few more days in my room. I would definitely miss the feel of my room. 

I kept the third box in one of the bags. I will read those letters once I settle down in his house.

I checked my cupboard and found so many things. 

I found my first trophy, hidden under the huge pile of clothes. I won it for being the most active child in elementary school. Now that I think about it, I was always energetic as a kid, even without coffee. 

I smiled at all my certificates and photos. 

I went Ally's room and sat on her bed, to feel her presence. 

I looked around and smiled at teddy bears from her childhood. She didn't throw them away even after growing up. I grabbed one of them. 

It was blue with huge, black eyes. It held a huge heart with 'I love you' written.

I started giggling and looked out of the window.

It turned evening and I didn't even realize it. 

I ate dinner and went to bed. It was my last night here. I would be leaving tomorrow morning. 

"All the best for the future, do come to meet us." Bella said, with teary eyes.

I smiled and looked at my father. And that was when I realized, I was no longer angry with him. 

I stepped forward and said, "I still don't want to forgive you.. For this. But.." 

Before I finished my sentence, he hugged me. 

It's been a long time, since he hugged me. 

I hugged him back. 

I sat in the car and waved to Bella and my father. I watched my house slowly move behind and those trees surrounding my house.

I was on the way to a new life now. 

I opened my phone and checked my chats with Jacob. I called him about twenty times and he didn't even see my messages.

What kind of work did he get busy with that he couldn't even come online for a minute in past three days?

The car stopped in the traffic jam. The continuous honks of the cars around me, the people yelling and the air-conditioner's noise, were simultaneous.

I checked my surroundings and saw the people rushing to their offices and girls roaming around on the streets. Then my eyes went on the teddy bear I decided to bring with me.

I relaxed more and got comfortable as it would take a long time to reach there. 

I looked at the huge billboards and the advertisements of watches on them. 

One of them was showing the latest news. 

'Renowned model Jacob Brinkley has been the victim of a mysterious attack which almost had him killed. The suspects remain unidentified, and Mr. Brinkley is currently receiving medical care at ****. His dedicated fan club has expressed anger through public demonstrations on the streets.'

I stared. For a long time, I kept staring at the news, just like all the other people on the streets. 

He was attacked.. Why? Jealousy? That could be true, but why would anyone almost kill him? 

I felt my heart coming up to my throat.

"Excuse me, could you drop me at **** first?" I asked the driver, without looking at him.

"Sure, miss. Just waiting for the traffic to clear." He said. 

I got off the car and started running to the hospital. 

"Miss!!" The driver yelled from behind.

Shit... Shit!!

"H-Hi.. Where is Mr. Jacob?" I asked the receptionist.

He jerked back and I could tell he thought that I was some freak.

"Um, he is in room number. 45. But just so you know, his guards aren't allowing anyone to enter, except the doctors." He informed me.

"Alright, thank you." I said.

I walked through the corridor, looking at every door's number. 

42, 44, 43..

And then I saw two huge guys, standing in front of the door number, 45.

So, these are the guards. Well, shit.

"They wouldn't allow you in." I heard someone from my back.

I turned my head and saw a girl, who looked like she hadn't slept in a long time. I liked her fashion sense though.

"And you are?" I asked.

"I'm Jacob's fan club's president. And they wouldn't allow you of all people. Whose sister was involved with the mafia." She said, folding her arms. 

I glared at her face which had the most annoying smile on it. Man, I wanted to punch her so bad. It should be okay since we are in a hospital. She'll be treated immediately.

Huff.. It's okay. Don't get angry. It's not true anyways. 

"Hi guys, can I meet Jacob?" I asked the two guards.

They moved away from the door. I looked back at the girl who was staring with her mouth open. I showed her my middle finger and entered the room.

I saw a girl sitting beside the bed on which Jacob was. His eyes were closed. 

I quietly walked to them. As I came closer, I recognized her. It was Charlotte.

I saw her head moving up and down. 

Okay, what the hell?

I bent down to look at her face and saw that she was sleeping. 

I felt like smiling but couldn't when I looked at Jacob. 

His face was filled with bandages and as well as his hands.

What in the world happened?

I walked to other side of the bed, as quietly as possible. But then I tripped on nothing and moved the bed a little. 

"Ow.." I winced and closed my eyes.

Why did I just trip on air? That too when I'm supposed to remain quiet. 

I opened my eyes and that is when I saw Charlotte standing up.

She was looking at me. I think she was still sleepy because for a whole minute she didn't say anything but just stared at me.

"Hi.." I whispered. 

"Hey.. Congrats. Sorry, we couldn't come to your marriage." She said, in an unusually low voice.

"No, it's alright. What happened?" I asked.
