Marriage With A Evil Heart

I swiftly turned around, alarmed, and whispered to Scarlette, “Close the door, quickly!”

Scarlette reacted quickly, reaching out to press the elevator’s close button, while the men shouted at us, “Wait!”

My heart jumped to my throat as I stared at the closing elevator doors. Just as they were about to reach us, the doors slowly closed. As the elevator descended, I faintly heard a furious button pressing and cursing, “Bitch! Fuck, don’t wait for us!”

The elevator descended rapidly, and I leaned weakly against the elevator wall, exhaling a breath of relief.

“Who was it? Did you see someone?” Scarlette hurriedly supported me. “Your face turned pale!”

“Steven Brown!” I uttered a name, still shaken. “Robert’s brother!”

“Oh my goodness!” Scarlette exclaimed. “How come it’s him? That was too coincidental! We need to be more careful! Did he recognize you just now?”

As we exited the elevator, I grabbed Scarlette’s arm and said, “Hurry back; otherwise, we might be exposed. I’m not sure if he recognized me.”

Although I expressed my concern, I was utterly drained. My legs were weak, and I had exhausted all my energy during the examination. Now, with the added tension, I felt like a pile of mud, unable to stand.

Scarlette completely understood my worry. She quickly scanned the surroundings, and noticing a nurse, she snatched a mobile bed from her hands. The nurse, surprised by the sudden move, looked baffled for several seconds before comprehending the situation. She then chased after Scarlette.

Scarlette had pushed the mobile bed back to my side, shouting, “Lie down quickly!”

Aware of the urgency, I extended my hand, but my legs wouldn’t cooperate.

Scarlette didn’t hesitate. She rushed over, lifting and settling me onto the mobile bed. The nurse, who had followed, assisted Scarlette in arranging me properly.

The moment I lay on the bed, I heard the elevator ‘ding’ behind us.

Scarlette cursed, “Shit, it’s too late!”

She gestured to the nurse and pointed toward the corridor, forcefully pushing her in that direction. “Over there, hurry!”

Then, Scarlette sprinted to another mobile bed at the opposite corridor, pretending to be a family member.

The quick-witted nurse didn’t ask too many questions, just pushed me towards the back. Through the glass barrier, I saw Steven and the men striding out of the elevator, scanning the lobby and heading in Scarlette’s direction.

I whispered to the nurse, “Quickly take me out, please, thank you!”

She quickened her pace, pushing the mobile bed towards the exit. I held onto the bed tightly, nervously watching, fearing those men might turn back.

She pushed me out of the main entrance just as Albert had parked the car in front of it.

Albert got out of the car to assist the nurse in loading me into the vehicle. The moment the door closed, Steven and the others walked out.

By this time, the nurse had already pushed the empty mobile bed past them and into the lobby.

I urgently told Albert, “Don’t start the car!”

Albert instantly understood, refraining from starting the engine and keeping an eye on the men. He then took out his phone and made a call.
