Chapter 0151 Chapter 0151 Im just worried about you , she admitted , her voice a soft whisper .
Ive heard some terrible rumors … about you being attacked .
Is it true ? A surge of tension twisted in my chest , but I gave a slight nod .
Its true that I was attacked , I said carefully .
But I dont know exactly what youve heard .
I havent been able to say much because … the situation is still under investigation .
Elizabeths eyes searched mine , her worry evident .
She took a step closer , keeping her voice quiet as she asked , what can you tell me about it ? drugged , so some of it is very hazy , I admitted softly , trying to steady my voice .
Drugged ? Elizabeths face paled , horror flashing in her eyes .
How ? 1 swallowed , the memory thick in my throat .
David somehow found out about my usual coffee shop .
He bribed one of the baristas to slip something into my drink when I came in .
He attacked you in a crowded shop like that ? she said in disbelief , her voice rising with anger .
I shook my head , feeling the familiar unease creep back in No.
He lured me to the hotel restaurant .
He sent me a message and made it look like it was from you .
I thought youd wanted to meet .
When I got there , he ambushed us .
He injected my bodyguard with a fast acting poison , just enough to incapacitate him .
Then , while I was weak and disoriented , he dragged me deeper into the hotel .
Elizabeth clenched her fists , her expression fierce .
How could he do that ? Did no one help you ? No one knew I needed help , I said , bitterly .
I looked like I was just … drunk .
Everyone assumed I was safe , that I was just another guest whod had a little too much to drink Why is he walking free ? she demanded , anger flaring in her eyes .
He should be awaiting my fathers judgment ! We dont have solid proof , I replied , frustration heavy in my voice .
My father and Alexander have people investigating , but they dont want to move against him until theyre certain they can prove it .
David is … hes good at talking his way out of things .
There was so much more I could say , so many dark truths just under the surface , but I didnt dare .
I couldnt bear for Elizabeth or anyone else to know the full horror of what David had tried to do .
Even thinking about it made me feel sick to my stomach .
Elizabeths face darkened with pure indignation .
He used my name to hurt you .
Her voice trembled with fury .
He wont get away with it .
I promise you , every resource at my fathers disposal will be made available to your investigators .
David isnt going to walk away from this .
Her anger was so fierce , so genuine , that I felt a rush of relief knowing she was on my side .
But a new worry crept in .
I couldnt deny that the last thing I wanted was for Elizabeth to get entangled in this mess .
The more distance she could keep from David and his twisted schemes , the better .
But how could I refuse her support now ? I needed all the allies I could get .
Thank you , I said softly , my voice choked with emotion .
Of course , she replied , her expression softening just slightly .
No one hurts my friends and gets away with it .
My father would never allow someone that despicable to walk free .
