Chapter 29

Carmella Hart:

I heard approaching high heels and I adjusted my sitting position. My mind was beating a million times per microseconds, but I still tried to put on a hard face even though I was shaking inside.

Finally, the door opened and the person in the high heels stepped inside the room. The next second, the light bulb turned on and when I saw the person that was standing in the middle of the room, my heart stopped racing and I said, "How did you guys find me?"

"Carmmy, Carmmy, Carmella," Lexi Ryan sang, "Urrrhggg, you look really pale."

"Come and help me out of these handcuffs."

"I don't think that is a good idea," she said and smiled while rolling her eyes. "I think you're cuter with the handcuffs on,"

"Lexi what are you doing?"

She sat at the foot of the bed and looked at me hatefully "You still don't understand what is going on? You're a dummy"

"Lexi don't be like this"

"You should have stayed away from my man"

"Your man?" I asked with a frown "I don't even know who your man is"

"My man, Casper. Casper Hart"

"What are you talking about?"

"Who are you to come between us? We've been together for years and you just showed up from nowhere and separated us"

"You're crazy. You're Casper's best friend not his girlfriend"

Her hand collided with my cheek and I saw stars.

"I was his girlfriend before you came between us!"

"Why are you doing this to me?" I asked while trying not to cry "Because I want him back and you won't let me have him if you are still alive"

"Lexi"

"Don't give me that pitiful look. It won't work"

"So, you're trying to kill me and take over...and take over my position as Casper's wife"

"Not only as Casper's wife but also as a Stokes"

I shook my head for some seconds and said "If Casper knows who you truly are, he wouldn't have considered you his best friend"

"But he doesn't know who I truly am. Don't worry, you aren't the only one that is going to pass through this"

I said nothing and waited for her to continue "The next person on my list is Lexi. Lexi Stokes"

I gasped "That lady showed you nothing but love."

"I don't want her love. It's not enough. I want to be like her, famous like her. I want everything she has excluding Jason because once she is gone, Jason will be the next person on my list."

"You are nothing but a monster!"

"A smart monster," she smiled and rolled her eyes.

"You won't succeed."

"I will. I've figured it out. Everything."

"Let me go. And I promise you that this never happened."

"I'm not stupid. I knew what you did. You were the one who ruined Casper's plan"

"I didn't. I just tried to put him on the right track"

She slapped me again "STUPID! WE WERE ON THE RIGHT TRACK AND YOU DESTROYED IT"

"That is a lie. I knew Casper wasn't happy with the idea either"

"Oh my God! How could Casper choose a dummy over me"

"Point of correction, I'm not a dummy. You know my name. My name is Carmella"

"You're as ugly as your name" she spat out "Tell me the 'ugly one' you or me? You lied about being sick"

"And you were stupid to believe it"

"Because I thought you were human. Little did I know...Even if you kill me, my place will never suit you"

She laughed sarcastically "Says you. Let me tell you something you might have missed on Casper's birthday. His mother thought...that I was his wife"

"Because you were seated on the same couch with him"

"No no no no," she said while moving her second finger in the air "Because I'm more presentable than you"

"You're a shameless woman"

"I don't care. I can see my future" she said while daydreaming "Bright...brighter than the sun but you have to die for me to reach my future"

"They will find out and they won't forgive you"

She smiled "Don't worry, I will be a good mother to Carolyn"

Lexi Stokes:

My phone rang, it was Cynthia and I picked it up

"Hello!" Cynthia screamed into the phone "I will send you a location right now! Go there! That is where she is!"

"Uhn?"

Cynthia hung up instantly and few seconds later a message popped up on my phone. I read the message and passed my phone to Casper and Jason "This is where she is. We have to be on our way now before it is too late" I said Everybody got up and Jason’s mom asked, "How did your friend know where she is?"

"Ariana, that is unimportant right now," Jason’s dad replied, "We need to tell the police."

We all entered a car and started speeding to the location while Jason’s dad texted the police the location.
