"I will buy it for Suzy! You can rest in the car now." after shopping few clothes, Charlotte speaks to Edward who is just trying his best to understand what he did wrong. She is avoiding him as much as she can.
" I am fine." He insists on joining her. She sighed walking towards the children's wear, but Edward stopped her once again. " Did something happen that made you upset?"
Charlotte now looks at him. An invisible wall, definitely there has between them. However, she can't understand why she is getting so upset about it. She should know that everyone has their personal life. They are not like real couples who can know everything about themselves.
" No. I am fine. Let's go." She said glancing at him once. Edward gives a tight-lipped smile, before following her.
" Shouldn't we buy a gift for your sister?" Attempting to get a conversation with her, he asked. Charlotte clenches her jaw, looking inside the shop.." I don't think I want to give her something. She doesn't deserve it."
" You are being honest, wifey. But you should show that you are fine and happy more than she will be. Shouldn't you? Don't forgive the one you don't want. And say goodbye respectively showing them you are living better than they are."
Charlotte inhales and exhales sharply turning towards him. He gazes up, and blinks twice when Charlotte looks into his eyes.." Let's shop for Suzy first. You can order something online. We have no time to waste on them."
She said, walking inside the shop where a beautiful Barbie dress had gotten her attention. Suzy loves them. So, she will never miss the chance to get them.
Both of them finished shopping, and Charlotte made sure Edward bought for himself too. On the way to the Parking lot, Both of them entered the Elevator. When the door is closed, A person places her purse between the doors to keep it open.
A young gorgeous lady enters the elevator with a Huff as she is panting. " Almost missed it. I am late."
However, when she turns to see her around, she gasps seeing." Ah!" She exclaimed in a low tone. Avoiding the pair of eyes that she didn't wish to meet, she turns to Edward who is looking at her with the same expression.
"It's been a while, Hazel." Edward softly speaks, giving a bitter smile at her. Hazel nods, smiling, " It's been a while since we last met. How are you doing now?"
Both of them have a great conversation until the elevator reaches the first floor. Hazel said goodbye, avoiding the person next to Edward. Even her eyes are too scared to look at the girl. A time bomb for her life.
" Let's go." Edward smiles holding her hand. Charlotte didn't say, walking towards the door.." You know her." She asks in a low voice.
" Yes. She is someone I know very well.." he replies honestly but apathetically.
" Ex-girlfriend?" Her voice is getting heavier.
" No. Not at all. I just know her. Like Junior. I would say.." he tried to explain.
" It's okay. I am not trying to interrogate your personal life. Just wanted to know if you know her very well. Because I know her too." she places the shopping bags inside the car, saying.
" She is a good actress. Of Course, You will know her. She is a good girl too. "
" As long as you are beautiful, You are a good girl too, isn't it?" She scoffs while helping him to hop in the car. Edward can feel the heaviness in her voice. He wanted to ask her if something was again bothering her. She is acting strange.
When the car left the parking lanes, A girl appeared from behind the wall. Hazel follows them silently to observe his relationship with him.
" What if she tells everything about us to him, I will be doomed. That bitch has died. But this one appeared in our lives once again." Hazel grits her teeth, biting her nails. Charlotte's presence can destroy her entire career. Now she is a woman of Rodriguez whose family never steps back when it comes to defending themselves. What if she does the same? Being insecure and afraid, She kicks the door of her car. " I won't let her destroy my life."
While Charlotte driving her car, she finds her vision is getting blurred. Recently, she felt her heart race faster out of nowhere and her vision got blurry every time. Now she is having the same problem which is obviously dangerous since she is driving.
" Is everything okay? Charlotte!" Edward asks noticing her shaking and slapping her face from time to time. Somehow It is so familiar with his terrifying memories. " What happened?" he repeats to know.
But instead of answering his question, Charlotte stops the car, gasping. She gets out of the car, calling someone instantly...
" What happened? Charlotte! Are you okay? Answer me!"
She nods in response but her breathing is getting heavier. She gasps hitting her chest from time to time. Her heart is racing so fast that she can't stand straight.
Edward who is watching her, grits his teeth. She is in pain but he can't help her right away. " Charlotte! Are you really fine? Shall I call an Ambulance?"
" I am fine. Maybe Allergic reaction.." She responds with a forced smile.
" You don't look good. I am calling -"
" Don't! I have called your secretary. He will be here soon." She said, sitting back in her seat. Edward is staring at her with concern. Somehow this scene is oddly familiar.
" What kind of Allergic reaction is it?" he asks full of concern.
" I don't know. It's sudden. Recently, I have been having a problem. I thought maybe it's Minor and I don't have to care. But now, I think I need to go to see a doctor.
" Shall I call Shayne? She is our family doctor."
" No. I am fine. I have my own doctor who I visit sometimes." She said, noticing a car approaching.
" You should go with him. I will visit the hospital."
saying, she fastens her belt. The secretary opens the door for Edward.." I want to go with you. Charlotte. It's not fine if you drive in this situation."
" I told you I am fine now. You should go and take some rest." She said coldly. A disappointed expression on his face shrouded. She doesn't want him to bother with her personal life.
" Be careful on your way.." He said leaving for another car. Attaching her forehead to the steering wheel, she sucks the air multiple times. Weirdly, she has some problems with her heart. She had her regular health check-up before the wedding. She was completely fine. How could she feel so worse within a few days?
The worst is she feels everything turns black within a second when she has the palpitations. She loses her control to move further. " I am finally going to die." She whispers, exhaling.
