Her blood dyed the sheets that were already red, leaving a stain mark of dark red color.
“Why are you bleeding so much?” Michael was beyond shocked. He put down his fish tank and flipped Sophia’s dress before removing her lace panties. However, blood was still gushing out of her.
Sophia also raised her head to look at him. She knew that she was lying on a puddle of blood. Apart from that, warm fluid continued to gush out of her body uncontrollably.
She had no idea what was going on right now as well. Is it possible that the gears of my fate have started moving? Is the wife-jinxer, Michael Fletcher, using his power to jinx me to death?
Michael’s eyes also turned round as he widened them. However, his face suddenly darkened and turned morose. Without another word, he brought Sophia downstairs in his arms and asked Hale to prepare the car to go to the hospital.
Hale also had no idea what was going on, but he immediately got the car ready. Then, he saw Michael hugging a pale Sophia as they got into the car hastily, leaving a familiar smell of blood behind them. Hale was very sensitive to the smell of blood.
As soon he detected that, he frowned as he looked at Sophia’s pale face and silently wished her luck. Tsk, it’s only been a while, yet she is already bleeding. I didn’t expect Michael to really be a psycho!
A trail of bright-red blood was left from the floor of the master bedroom, spiral staircase, all the way to the hall. Mr. Morgan and a few other maids were also looking at Sophia pitifully. Alas, God’s will can’t be defied. Michael should just stay single for his entire life!
Meanwhile, Sophia was suffering from an even greater shock; she thought she had suffered a chronic disease, and that she was about to die. Michael—this psycho—has such a strong lifeforce. It’s just the first day, yet I’m already jinxed. It appears that my life force is not as strong as his. I’m afraid I can’t live a long and happy life anymore.
For the past year, she had been trying hard to live a good life and use the resources Michael left her to strengthen her skills. Apart from studying to get through the university entrance exam, she continued to improve herself by learning about stocks and real estate so she would be more well-equipped. Apart from that, she even went to the gym everyday, and she learned boxing and etiquettes. She had been giving her all to live a splendid life. However, her efforts were all defeated by the first night they spent together.
Goodbye, my lovely life! Goodbye, Bayside University! Sophia just wanted to die silently as she hoped that there were no psychos in heaven, and that she would be born into an ordinary family in her next life.
The black Cayenne sped past the roads in Bayside City like a spirit at night. In the car, Michael hugged Sophia without saying anything. Maria also joined them to take care of Sophia and managed to stop her bleeding with a towel between her legs.
Maria’s eyes were red as she had already gotten close to Sophia after spending time with her for a year. After all, Sophia was easy to get along with. However, she did not expect that Michael would jinx her to death on the first night he was back. In between sobs, Maria held her handkerchief to her face. “Madam, please don’t die!”
Lying in Michael’s arms, Sophia was waiting for her death, but she didn’t feel it coming after a long time. Instead, she felt as if her insides were grinding together, as if there was a hand mixing her internal organs together. After she groaned slightly, another wave of blood gushed out. Just let me die… Everything will be better then… With such thought in her mind, Sophia slowly closed her eyes while Michael’s heavy, flustered breathings and Maria’s sobs lingered by her ears.
Hale was behind the wheels as he skilfully overtook other cars and took shortcuts on the road. His hands that were maneuvering the steering wheel were damp with sweat while he constantly looked in the rearview mirror at Sophia, who was in Michael’s arms. He had never felt that the hospital was so far away.
They quickly arrived at the nearest hospital. Sophia had already fainted, so Maria and Gary carried her into the hospital, leaving the towel behind in the backseat of the car. The striking red color made Michael’s expression even more sullen. He didn’t follow them to the hospital. Instead, he smoked in the car, cigarette after cigarette. He asked Hale to stay behind, so both of them were in the black car. On top of that, he did not allow him to switch the lights on. The atmosphere was so tense that Hale thought Michael was about to make an important announcement.
