Chapter 126: 126. Cuffed

The pillow is on his face, I’m putting pressure on it. I have to be quick before the cops co back. "Die, please die quickly." I say as I press harder and harder.

"Your existence only troubles . It makes

restless. You’ve been of use up until now. Now you’re just worthless and yet you remain a living ti bomb. I can’t sleep in peace because of fear that you might be hiding evidence against

sowhere so just die. Die and the secret dies with you. It will be forever lost. No one will have to know I had a hand in it. So Die!!"

Is it so hard to kill a person? A person who is hanging by a thread for that matter! In movies it’s always easy. They just have to press for a little while not even a whole minute and the person dies.

But it feels like I’ve been pressing for five whole minutes and even though he can’t move a muscle due to his broken state, I can still see him twitching which ans he’s not dead yet!

Why is it so hard to die? Am I not pressing it hard enough?

Maybe I should climb the bed.

With the pillow still over his head, I climb atop him and usually when I take this position, we’d both be naked and I’ll have him begging

to sit on him. I never thought I’d be sitting on him for an entirely different reason bit here I am.

Now, die Rowan Fletcher.

Die!

A loud crashing sound echoes throughout the room, startling the shit straight out of my pants, and it takes a while for

to realize that it was the door to the hospital room that just burst open.

I turn my head and people in police officer uniforms co rushing in, so with guns in their hands and others with their badges.

"Miss!! Step away from Mr Rowan now!!" Soone is screaming.

"On the floor, on your knees this instant!!" They are saying.

In the midst of them is a familiar face.

A woman, with long black hair and dark brown eyes. Dressed in a long casual black dress with a small black purse by her side. She’s staring at

with a smirk on her face and...

Wait a minute... My head is starting to process the entire thing now

What is going on right now? W_why are these people here.

I look at the people now surrounding

and then I look down at my hand and a scream escapes my lips as I finally let go of the pillow I’ve been using to suffocate Rowan.

"I_It’s not what you think." I’m stuttering as I’m staggering out of the bed.

"On you knees!! Hands behind your back!!" Soone is screaming now. What is going on?

"N_no, no listen to . It’s not what yoh think. I—"

A loud applause echoes throughout the room and I turn towards the face of that familiar woman.

"Well, well, well." her voice resounds all around the room and my body is starting to shake as I’m slowly starting to realize, the kind of situation I’m in.

"Dear cousin, not only did you just try to commit murder, you also just confessed to your cris against . Bravo Alicia, Bravo."

This can’t be happening! What is Champagne doing here!! Why is she here?

"Y_you are mistaken! I didn’t do anything. I was _ I was just adjusting his pillow... Yes, that’s it, he’s a friend. Can’t I help a friend?" I stutter through my words as I try to make sense of everything that’s unfolding in front of

right now.

"There is no point in denying anything Alicia, we got you all on cara." She says and points towards sothing and my eyes follows her finger and I’m staring at the television. It turns on, I’m seeing myself, climbing onto the bed and suffocating Rowan!!

Now I’m realizing... I_ I was set up? ? Alicia, setup?

"You see, cousin, I had a feeling you would pay your dear partner a visit. And I was hoping whenever you visited, you’d talk about all the good good things you’ve done together, especially all the ones that concerns ."

Oh no. This can’t be happening.

"Having that hope that you would co and rat on yourself, I was going to use that as a ans to get evidence of your cris against

so I had the police plant so caras in this room for whenever you’d co." Her words don’t make sense. It can’t be true!! It must not be true!!

Champagne is not that ticulous

Champagne would not plan that far. That video on the screen must be fake. That can’t be .

"To he honest I was starting to wonder if you were ever really going to show up. But then about thirty minutes ago, I got a call from the officers that you had finally shown up."

I’m really seeing it now...

This was a setup!! The officer’s already recognized

from the mont I got here. They just stayed in front of the door waiting for Champagne to arrive. That ti they both left the door, champagne must have already arrived at the hospital. So they made way for

to enter this room so they could get a confession out of

without any effort at all.

It was an obvious trap! How co I did not notice.

Why would the two officers guarding the door leave at the sa ti?! I should I’ve known sothing was off.

"OF course I never expected that not only would you confess but also attempt murder, oh my gosh cousin you are sothing else!" She cackles with a hand over her mouth.

It was foolish of

to enter here and start ranting like a gullible idiot! No, I should not have co here in thee first place.

I can’t believe this is happening. This mustn’t be real. It can’t be real. It must be a nightmare.

What did I do to deserve this?!

This can’t be happening. "This can’t be happening

This is a lie." I shake my head in denial of the painful truth that I’m about to be arrested for attempted murder!

This is all Champagne’s fault. She planned this. I hate this woman.

I can’t go to jail. I’m too young to go to jail. My life will be ruined forever! There will be no going back for

if I go to jail! I’m to precious to go to jail!

"I’m not going to jail!!" I scream.

"Oh dear cousin, you are." She laughs maniacally. "But don’t worry, you won’t be lonely. I’ll make sure I send your mother to you soon."

"Champagne!!" I scream her na with everything I have in .

"It’s just a pity that n and won don’t stay in the sa jail. I bet it would have been nice to have you boyfriend in there with you too.’

"Champagne you bitch!!"

"Save your screams and strength for the court room dear cousin. Don’t waste them now. Officers, what are you waiting for? Arrest that woman." She orders and they are coming towards .

"No!!!" I scream.

I’m not going to go down alone! I’m not going to go to jail! I refuse to be held in a place for filthy animals!

"Do you know who I am?!" I scream but no one seems to be listening. "I am Alicia! Alicia Gold!!" No one is listening. They are hell bent on taking

away.

I’m not going to let them! I refuse to go down like this.

"Chaampagen you crazy bitch!!" I scream and run past the officers thank goodness for my slim body. I am able to slip through them without any problem and as I run, I run towards Champagne.

"I will kill you!! I refuse to go to jail! I will kill you, you bitch!" I scream and just when I’m about to wrap my hands around her, I feel soone yank

from behind and the next thing I know, I’m being pressed on the ground, being manhandled!!

! Alicia Gold being manhandled! Can you imagine that!

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" I scream with all I have in

as one person is dragging my hand behind , another is hold my legs while another person is pressing my head down.

I feel sothing cold like steel wrapping around my wrist. They are saying sothing as that cold thing is wrapping around my wrist. Sothing about

having the right to remain silent. I’ve heard this in movies before.

Cuffs! That cold thing I feel on my wrists must be cuffs. Oh my goodness I’m being cuffed.

"No!!" I scream with all my strength.

"You can’t cuff . I am Alicia Gold." I scream but no one seems to care.

"We know who you are Alicia, no need to keep reciting it like it’s so kind of anthem." Champagne says. This despicable human! How is she standing in front of

and laughing?!

How am I the one screaming and pinned too the ground? How?!!

"Champagne!!"
