FLASH MARRIAGE; CHARMED BY THE RUTHLESS BILLIONAIRE CEO - Chapter 185

Chapter 185: Perfect Timing
A few minutes ago, when Stacy joined Amelia in the toilet cubicle, Tina, who had been putting on a show just to get the right witness, whispered her plans to Joanna.

Even though Joanna was not comfortable with this idea, she decided to play along just for her bestie’s sake.

Tina instructed Joanna to go out of the convenience and wait four minutes before going to call Kayla and Amelia’s bodyguard for help.

After, ensuring the convenience door was quietly locked again, Tina quickly tidied up and washed her hands before drafting a compelling message. She scheduled the text message to deliver after three minutes and forwarded it to the senator, -whose contact she got indirectly from Pearl – and Blaze’s official mobile number.

Thereafter, she approached the toilet cubicle door and knocked twice.

“Amelia, I just texted your father and your husband. Help is on the way. Hang in there.”

“What!” Amelia and Stacy both exchanged alarmed gazes.

“You did what!” Amelia’s weak voice vibrated from behind the toilet door, forcing Tina to take a few steps backwards as she saw the door knob turn.

Though weak and still in a lot of pain, Amelia managed to lift herself off the floor with Stacy’s help.

Stacy pushed open the door and helped Amelia out, holding her firmly around the shoulder.

“What did you do?” Amelia demanded furiously, her fragile voice dripping with venom.

Tina repeated her earlier statement in a serene voice while trying to hold her breath, repelled by the conspicuous greenish-yellow stain on the top part of Amelia’s camisole.

“How dare you!” Amelia’s body shook with rage, her legs a bit unsteady as she moved threateningly towards Tina, intending to give her a dirty slap.

Tina impulsively moved backward as Stacy managed to keep Amelia away from her.

“Amy, take it easy. Don’t hurt yourself.” Stacy pleaded in an exasperated tone, her icy glare on Tina.

“How dare you contact my husband and my father without my consent? Who do you think you are? Are you crazy?” Amelia demanded, biting down on her lower lips and stifling the excruciating pain twisting her navel.

“No, I’m not crazy, Amelia,” Tina replied, holding Amelia’s riled gaze. “I was only trying to help.”

“Help who?” Amelia yelled, her weak voice rumbling with fury.

“I’m sure she was trying to help herself.” Stacy hissed. “So pathetic.”

“Stay out of this, Stacy. This is none of your goddamn business.” Tina warned, unwilling to tolerate Stacy’s insult.

“For your information, Miss Sussy home wrecker, Amelia is my business. You meddling in her affair is also my business. So I will talk to you however I please as long as you fail to mind your own business.” Stacy’s inflamed eyes shot daggers at Tina.

“You know what, I’ll pretend like I didn’t hear you call me a homewrecker. If I were you, I’d be more concerned with helping my friend clean herself up.” Tina gestured at Amelia’s messy camisole. “…. instead of instigating her to violent and worsening her state.” She lectured.

“Maybe if you get the hell out of our face, I will be able to focus on my friend.” Stacy hissed.

Ignoring Stacy’s last insulting comment, Tina turned her attention to Amelia, who was looking really sick and pale.

“Amelia, I’m sorry if my actions pissed you off. But this is not the time to argue. You do not look well. I’ve already cleaned the mess you made on the floor. I also sent Joanna to get your friends and your bodyguard. I only contacted your husband and father in case things escalated. I have no ulterior motive whatsoever.”

“I’m sure you don’t,” Amelia said sarcastically, her entire body shaking from the tremor tormenting her from within. “But guess what, I didn’t ask you to do any of that. So stop trying so hard to make yourself look like a saint because we both know who you really are, a wolf in sheep’s clothing.”

Tina gasped as if Amelia’s words had just knocked out the air in her lungs. She blinked twice, squeezing out a few drops of tears, while inwardly hurling curses at Amelia. She turned her face sideways, a sly grin framing her lips as another bolt of pain hit Amelia, causing the latter to let out a tiny sharp cry.

“Amy…” Stacy’s heart hammered against her ribcage as Amelia let go of her arm, almost falling forward on her face. She swiftly caught Amelia by the waist, but at the same time lost her balance on the slippery tile floor because of both their heels.

Stacy fell on her butt with a gasp while Amelia landed on her, twisting her left arm in the process.

“Shit!” Tina seeing her second chance quickly rushed over to Stacy’s aid.

“Amelia, are you hurt?” Stacy overlooked her own trauma as she focused on her friend, who was reeling in great agony.

“Make her sit up,” Tina suggested, taking off Amelia’s stiletto heels.

Both ladies temporarily put aside their grievances as they both helped Amelia sit up.

“Sweet heaven! She is burning up.” Tina cried out as her hand came in contact with Amelia’s skin.

“Stacy…”

“Shh!” Stacy cut Amelia off, mopping the sweat on her forehead. “Save your strength. You will be alright.”

“Get some water,” Stacy ordered Tina while holding Amelia’s head to her chest.

“Now she wants my help. Pighead.” Tina cursed in her heart as she hurried to the door. “It should be five minutes by now. Where are you, Jay.”

Just then Joanna arrived with backup. “Tina.” She banged at the door repeatedly.

“Perfect timing.” Tina beamed enthusiastically. She unlocked the door from the inside and opened it wide.

“Where is she?” Kayla asked in a trembling tone. “Her husband is on the phone.”

“Over there, with Stacy. She is in a real bad shape,” Tina replied in a slightly raised voice to ensure Blaze heard her.

“Thank you, Tina.” Kayla and the others rushed inside.

“Where do you think you are going.” Tina blocked Pascal from entering, closing the door behind her, a twinkle dancing in the corner of her eyes. “Are you planning to look at your boss’s indecently dressed wife?”

“What! No.” Pascal’s face was flushed with embarrassment. “I just wanted to make sure she’s okay.”

“Don’t worry, we will take care of her. Just get the ambulance. I don’t think she’ll be able to walk in her current state” Tina spoke with authority before disappearing into the convenience.

Thirty minutes later, an ambulance arrived at the Diamond Star Club and Amelia was discreetly carried away.
