The Devil's Sweetheart

82

Terror filled in Casey as she saw Jennie standing in front of her. After that accident, there were no traces of her and she assumed Jennie has died in that accident until she saw her on the television two years back. From then on, she was gripping her life tightly because she was scared that Jennie would come for her life. But Casey did not meet Jennie until today.

Casey never thought that the one day trip to New York with her friend would turn out to be a catastrophe. She calmed herself and took a deep breath before she spoke up. " Whatever happened five years back was a misunderstanding, Jennie,"

"Misund-"

"The mistake you and your boyfriend did has put a life in danger and you are calling if a misunderstanding?" It was Rosé who spoke up. When she was in the bathroom, she heard a familiar voice from the past and immediately finished her job, and arrived here scared that Jennie would be in danger again. " Do you know the pain she endured?" Rosé barked at the top of her lungs. She wanted to kill the two-faced woman with her own hands for making Jennie's life living hell.

"It's not my mistake that she slipped and fell over the cliff. I did not push her." Casey breathed in for air holding the hem of her dress tightly for strength. "She is the one to be blamed for not-"

PAK

" Not a word from your mouth, bi**h." Rosé slapped her when her saturation point has reached for this woman. How dare this two-faced shrewd cow accuse my Jennie.

Casey held her cheek in anguish. Tears rolled down her cheeks. She was alone and bullied by these two women. People who were going in and out of the washroom were looking at Casey with sympathy but none tried to approach her.

Jennie scoffed at Casey's crocodile tears. Not her Mistake? It was true that she slipped on her own, but she fell on a sheer rock with minor injuries on that night. Despite it was slippery due to heavy rain, Jennie tried to climb up but even before she reached the top, she was brutally pushed down by two men.

That's when Jennie heard a bone-chilling voice that she wanted Jennie to be crippled for a lifetime.

"Look, Jennie-"

Jennie cut her off in the middle. "Don't be delighted that I have not taken my revenge on you and your boyfriend. I don't want to dirty my hands laying a finger on both of you. I am waiting for the karma. You will eventually suffer tenfold pain that you both have given me."

Jennie grabbed Rosé's hand and got out of the room. Until they reached the parking lot, both didnot speak.

"You should make her life hell, Jennie," Rosé shouted when they were being alone.

"I don't want any more mess up dramas in my life, Rosé," Jennie said. "Casey and Ethan are thorns in my life which I am desperately trying to avoid."

"Did you tell Lisa about Ethan?" Rosé asked in a soft voice.

" Not yet. I-I am-"

"I know you are not comfortable. But take it slow and don't keep him in dark. He has to know one day. First, at least tell him that you were in a relationship with-"

"I was not in a relationship with him." Jennie contended. She hates that man to the core.

"Yes, yes. My bad that I forgot that part." Rosé quickly explained. Jennie bursts out into a fit of anger whenever Rosé and Irene call Jennie with the name 'Ethan's ex' to tease her. Jennie always comes up with an excuse that she dated him for only two months. One month or two months, it was still considered as dating in the eyes of Rosé and Irene.

"Let's go home." Jennie rebuked speeding up the car. She was missing her babylicious already. It's time to break the silence.

"Did you wash properly before coming out of the bathroom?" Jennie brought a topic to lighten the atmosphere. The anger she had curbed when Lisa's face popped up in her mind
