It All Started With Hatred-Chapter 139: Death moment

Petal sat in her car with her eyes wide. Her heart was beating fast as she held onto the Steering wheel tightly. She was just a second away from dying. Gulping softly. She unlocked the car door with shaking hands and stepped out of the car.

She was driving at legal speed when this car appeared suddenly driving at full speed towards. Luckily she took her left avoiding being hit by this car. She didn’t come unharmed from this. Her car had a slight dent on the side and she hit her head. But it wasn’t something major compared to the smashed car that she was looking at.

The car that was spreading towards was hit against the tree. She didn’t know if the person in there was alive or dead. People gathered. The police arrived and an ambulance arrived too.

"Miss. Are you alright?" A police officer asked her.

Petal, who was still shocked, nodded her head. After questioning her about the accident. The police told her that she could leave. She quickly got into her car and drove towards the mansion. Her hands were shaking and she was scared. She only felt relieved when she saw the gats to Wilson estate.

Parking her car. Petal took out her notebook and wrote something on it before she stepped out of the car and showed it to the guard.

"Don’t tell Ethan. I will personally tell him. Understood."

The guard stared at her before he nodded his head. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Petal took a deep breath before she walked towards the mansion. She didn’t think her day would end like this. When she stepped into the mansion. She caught the sight of Ethan who was leaning against the wall looking at her.

Pushing himself off the wall. Ethan looked at her." You’re late? Where have..." Ethan paused, noticing the tears in her eyes.

"What happened? Petal? Why are you crying?" Ethan asked, cupping her face.

Petal closed her eyes letting the tears that she had been holding fall down. Her hands clutched into Ethan’s shirt tightly.

Ethan’s gaze darkened. Something happened to her that made her cry and scared like this. He shouldn’t have listened to her when she told him to not send his man to watch over. He shouldn’t have listened.

Petal looked up at him before she looked around her. If they stayed standing here. Someone will see them.

"There you’re. I thought that you were not coming." Alice said, walking towards them.

Hearing Alice’s voice. Petal took a step back. Ethan didn’t like what she did. But it wasn’t the right time to discuss something like this.

"Hey.... Oh. Petal what happened? Why are you crying?" Alice asked, frowning.

"Ethan. What did you do?" She asked her brothers when Petal didn’t reply.

Ethan didn’t reply to his sister and walked towards Petal pulling her into his arms."Tell Mom that Petal arrived and went to her room to change her clothes. Don’t mansion anything else." He said before he looked at Petal who was shaking in fear from some reason

Alice nodded her head and looked at Petal who looked like she was going to faint at any second now.

"Come. Let me take you to your room." Ethan said. Helping her to walk.

Petal glanced at Alice before she lowered her eyes. She let Ethan walk her towards the stairs. Right now. She was in deep fear. What happened earlier wasn’t an accident. Someone was planning to kill her. But who and why. These are answers she doesn’t know.

Alice watched the scene unfold in front of her. How her brother spoke to Petal. She never saw him speak to anyone like this. How he held. The look of fear in his eyes. All are things that are different from his true nature. But it was good progress, she thought to herself.

But why was Petal crying and scared? Did something happen? Alice wondered.

Alice decided to ask her brother later. Walking towards the living room. She heard Issac’s voice.

Upstairs. In the Petal room. Sitting here on the bed. Ethan kneeled in front of her."Petal. Tell me why are you crying?" He asked, staring at her.

Petal met his worried gaze and nodded her head." I had an accident." She told him. Signaling.

"What? Are you hurt? Why didn’t you tell me?" Ethan stood up on his feet."We need to go to the hospital now."

Ethan was about to lift her body in his arms but Petal stopped him."There’s no need, I am fine." She said, Signaling.

"Are you? Let me see for myself." Ethan said unbuttoning her coat.

Petal gulped softly and nodded her head. She reached for her coat to remove it but only to whine in pain. When she tried to lift her hand she felt a dull pain in her shoulder.

"Fine, you said." Ethan spoke as he helped her to remove her coat and her woolen sweater revealing the bruise on her shoulder.

Petal gulped nervously seeing the look on his face.

"Does it hurt here?" Ethan asked as he examined her shoulder.

Petal shook her head and pointed at the place that was hurting her.

"Lucky it’s nothing serious." Ethan said cupping her face." I shouldn’t have listened to you. What if something happened to you?"

Petal saw the scared look in Ethan’s eyes and felt bad for worrying him."I’m sorry." She apologized. Signaling.

"No. Don’t apologize. I am the one at fault. I should have waited for you and picked you up personally. It’s my fault for not protecting you." Ethan said, his voice full of sadness.

Petal watched as he kissed her bruised shoulder. cleaning the wound on the side of her head. Ethan stepped out of the room to bring her an ice bag to reduce the swelling on her shoulder.

"Tell me everything happened. Everything you can remember." Ethan said, pressing the ice bag on her shoulder.

Petal told Ethan what happened exactly. From the moment that she saw the car speeding towards her and how she avoided it. She told him where exactly it happened and what she said to the police. Not missing a single detail.

"You did well by acting fast and avoiding the car." Ethan said, kissing her forehead.

Resting her head on his shoulder. Ethan ran his fingers through her hair while he was thinking about what happened to Petal.
