I knew my face was beyond recognition, blood and torn flesh everywhere. The pain was so overwhelming that numbness had begun to set in.
I lifted my head, rasping through my broken voice,
“Chloe, do you even realize what you’re doing?”
“Of course I do!” she replied with a cold smile. “I’m teaching a slut like you a lesson.”
“This is a crime. I can call the police!”
Hearing me, she burst into laughter.
“The police?”
“Don’t you know who my boyfriend is? Jason Carter—the heir of the Carter family. Everyone in the New York elite circle knows his power!”
“And besides, I’m pregnant with his child!”
Smugly, she caressed her stomach.
“I’m the future mistress of the Carter family. My man would never give me up. And you? You’re just a disfigured slut. He won’t even spare you a glance!”
Rage flared in my eyes as I growled,
“With one word from me, Jason wouldn’t dare marry you.”
At this, she only laughed harder.
“You have no idea how much this child means to him. I’ve already checked—it’s a boy. The only male heir of the Carter family!”
She looked at me with pride.
I had no interest in wasting more words with her.
“Chloe, let me go!”
I was too numb from pain and only wanted to escape—to get to a hospital.
