Tangled Love

Chapter 28 - Haunted

Serena's POV

"No, Sofia will wear a purple long gown." I informed my assistant.

"Oh, I will tell Natalia to change the gowns." She said and left.

When I was making final adjustments on the gown, someone called me out. I gritted my teeth as I understood who she was. I turned around and folded my arms over my chest as I gave Carolina a disgusted look. She gave me a mocking smirk.

"What do you want?" I asked coldly.

"I came here to warn you." She said arrogantly. "You will get hurt, little girl. Aspen doesn't love you. When he gets bored with you, he will throw you away like a dirty sock. Even your little bastard will not help you to keep him by your side." She said and gave me a sarcastic smirk.

I clenched my fist. "Don't dare to call my baby a bastard!" I snapped.

She gave me a mocking smirk. "Why? Isn't he a bastard?!"

I slapped her across her face. "Get out of here!" I shouted at her.

"You little whore!" She snapped, placing her hand on her cheek.

"Whore?!" I mocked her. "Look who is talking! A married woman who fucks a boy at the same age as her son." I snapped and gave her a disgusted look.

Everyone stopped their job and stared at us. I ignored their curious eyes. I was boiling with anger. The securities rushed towards us and grabbed her arms, dragging her out.

"Let go of me! I will leave myself." She snapped as she pulled her arms away and stormed out.

I placed my hand on the vanity table for support as I felt dizzy. I didn't feel good.

"Ms. Evans, are you fine?" My assistant asked, concerned.

"Yeah..." I murmured. "Could you bring me a glass of water?" I asked and sat down on the seat.

"Yes. Just a minute." She said and rushed away.

A few seconds later, she came back, holding a glass of water in her hand. I grabbed it and drank. After a few minutes later, I felt better.

"Are you better now?" My assistant asked, worried.

"Yeah, thanks." I said.

Once the audience was seated, the lights dimmed, the music started and the first model stepped onto the catwalk. I was watching the show behind the scenes. I felt so nervous.

Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my stomach. I pursed my lips together as I placed my hand on my stomach. I was inhaling and exhaling slowly. A few seconds later, it passed.

As the show was about to finish, I walked on a catwalk with the last model and greeted the audience.

Aspen was applauding, giving me a radiant smile while looking at me proudly. I gave him a slight smile.

Suddenly, I felt dizzy. My vision was blurry. When I wanted to go back, my vision darkened.

Aspen's POV

I felt so happy. Finally, Serena and I got back together. I was full of the joys of spring.

As I left the backstage, I went and sat beside my parents and her parents.

The show was perfect. I was proud of Serena. She really did a good job. She was so talented.

She walked on a catwalk with the last model and greeted the audience.

I stood up and applauded her, smiling as I looked at my beautiful girl proudly. She gave me a smile, but her smile didn't reach her beautiful eyes. There was something; she looked strange. Before the show, she was happy. But now, her expression was gloomy. Her face was pale as well.

Suddenly, she fainted. Everyone gasped in shock. I pulled myself together and rushed towards her.

"Serena." I screamed in panic.

I bent down beside her as I lifted her head up, stroking her cheek. I scooped her up in my arms and carried her to my car.

****

I was waiting for the doctor, leaning against the wall. Our families were here too. I was so worried.

Why did she faint? Are there any complications?

I approached the doctor as she walked out.

"How is Serena? The baby?" I asked anxiously.

"Ms. Evans had low blood pressure. She is fine now as well as the baby. But I am going to check the baby with ultrasound." She informed.

I breathed deeply, relieved. Thank God.

My father placed his hand on my shoulder, giving me a smile.

"Could I see her?" I asked.

"Yes." She replied, giving me a smile.

As soon as I walked in, I approached her and held her hand as I planted a soft kiss on her forehead.

"I was so worried, sunshine." I said and placed my hand on her stomach.

"I am fine." She muttered dryly and pulled her hand away.

I raised my eyebrow at her, confused. What happened? We were so good a few hours ago, but now she was cold and distant.

"What happened?" I asked, looking into her eyes.

"Keep your whore away from me." She snapped as she gave me a fuming look.

I raised my eyebrow, puzzled as I asked. "Who?"

"Do you have more than one?" She asked sarcastically.

I rolled my eyes, annoyed as I guessed what she was talking about. "I broke up with her. You know. There is nothing between us. She means nothing to me." I confirmed with a serious expression.

"Whatever. I am not interested in your personal life. I just think about my baby." She said firmly.

I breathed deeply. What the hell did you do again, Carolina?

"What did she tell you?" I asked.

I clenched my fist angrily while she was telling me what that bitch had done.

"I am sorry that I involved you into this mess. But don't worry. She will not come near you again." I promised her. I held her hand in my hands and planted a soft kiss on top of her hand. "But please, don't push me away. I love you so much." I pleaded.
