Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19 Cold Handcuffs

“Argh!” Gigi recoiled. The smell of alcohol permeated her nose. Everyone in the room was confused at the sight. Jean smirked, holding the empty glass. Did Gigi expect her to take all the taunts in stride?

When Gigi snapped out of it, her shock turned into anger. She snatched a glass and rushed toward Jean. “Jean! How dare you! I’ll kill you!”

Jean dodged her. Reaching for the nearest thing, she flung it toward Gigi. A malicious thought crossed Gigi’s mind. Jean had missed her target when she threw the glass bottle. Yet it smashed straight into Gigi’s face!

Gigi yelped and fell to the floor. Blood pooled around her head. “Murder! Someone attempted murder!”

Chaos broke out. Those that feared for their lives left the place immediately. Someone called for an ambulance and the police. It wasn’t long before the panic subsided. “What happened? Who did this?”

A man in a police uniform questioned those at the scene. “Sir! It’s this woman! She hurt my friend. We don’t even know if she’s still alive.”

Gigi’s friend pointed at Jean, gloating over her. The officer frowned as he pulled out his handcuffs and walked toward Jean. “Miss, I have to ask you to come with us.”

Jean furrowed his eyebrows. How did the police come to the scene that quickly?
