The car that collided with mine used so much force that I thought I was dead for a second. Luckily it didn't hit me from the side I was.
I opened the door and got out of the car.
"What the heck?!"I half yelled. The owner of the car got out and I was shocked to see that it was a female.
"Take it as a warning, Doctor Dupont." She said with a smirk.
It was good enough that my car got wrecked now this lady I had never met before knew me.
"How do you know my name?" I asked,running my fingers through my hair.
"I'm the person that is going to ruin you! You made them arrest my father,and now you're going to pay." She answered menacingly.
"It has been four years,why didn't you ever step up. Do you even know what he did?" I asked,trying to compose myself.
"Oh yes Claire,you see,I just turned eighteen,and that gives me the legal right to do possibly anything." She answered. I could see the slight twitch under her left eye and how shaggy her hair was.
She was obviously on drugs.
"Well Miss..." I said,hoping she would catch my drift.
"Eliza." She answered and rolled her eyes.
"Miss Eliza,I understand you're hurt,trust me I would be too. But your father was a monster. And he deserved more than what he got. If you ever try to hurt me again,I'll file a restraining order against you and if you defile that,trust me I will sue you. You just turned eighteen right? That means you have the legal right to go to jail if you misbehave." I used her own words to mock her.
I saw how her pupils dilated a bit when I said that. She was scared of authority yet,she wanted to misbehave.
By the time I got to work,it was quarter past eight.
"You look tired." Claudine joked. I gave a wry smile before extending my hand for the case file.
"You wouldn't want to know the morning I've had." I managed to squeak.
"How is the boy that was brought in yesterday?" I ask while tying my hair in a bun.
"Turned out it some sort of substance in his blood. We took it to the lab." Claudine said and turned around.
I bet it was some stupid bet or dare that caused that. But why didn't they take him to the hospital? And brought him here?
By the time it was lunch,my head was aching as if I had hit it against a wall.
"Aren't you going?" My colleague, Maddie asked me. I smiled slightly and turned my focus back to my computer.
What was up with the girl that tried to kill me? Had she been after me since? What was actually happening?
I had left South Wales because I didn't want any more terrible issues and now here was this.
My phone rang,snapping me back to reality. It was Josh.
"Hey,I'm on my way to the daycare centre." He said.
"Why?" I asked, slightly concerned.
"The boys' teacher called. She said Noah fainted or something like that!" He answered. I could sense the concern in his voice.
"What?" I get off my seat. I could feel my heart pounding in my chest by the time I managed to get a cab.
"Josh,please take him to the hospital,I'll meet you there." I said and cut the call.

"What happened?" I asked when I got to the hospital. My hands were visibly shaking and I was scared.
"Mommy,will Noah be okay?" Liam sniffled and hugged my leg. I carried him and hugged him to my chest.
"He'll be fine." I answer and blink back the tears. Josh looks at me when the doctor walked in.
She walked towards us and I immediately asked about Noah's condition.
The next thing she said made my heart sink and my blood ran cold.
