Jack and the thugs looked at one another and their faces turned pale. It was a no-brainer they weren’t
calling the ambulance.
More importantly, they couldn’t let the two women live to call the cops on them. Jack swiftly took the
dagger from the ground.
Leah could only focus on Regina right now. Regina was stabbed in the back and she was soaked in
blood. Her body became cold and she was shivering.
“Why?” Leah mumbled in a quavering voice, “Why did you take the hit for me? I thought you hated me.
Why did you save me?”
Regina’s arms were lying weakly beside her body. The blood had drained from her face. She lifted a
faint smile, “You’re not wrong. I hate you because Han loves you.”
Leah took her phone with a trembling hand. “Shhh, stop talking now. I’ll get you an ambulance and I’ll
make sure you’re okay. Then, you can talk as much as you like.”
Regina smiled weakly. “Leah, you’re still so naive.” Does Leah truly believe they could walk out of this
chop shop alive?
Leah had always been a naive and simple girl since high school. Regina approached Leah with the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtulterior motive to snatch Han away from her, but Leah thought they were friends and she told her
everything.
“If you weren’t so naive, I wouldn’t be able to get close enough to steal your cell phone,” Regina said
feebly. Her mind became crystal clear as she was on the brink of death. She thought about her life and
she tried to remember as much as she could.
Regina tugged at Leah’s sleeve with her bloodstained hand. “Even though you’re so naive, I’m jealous
of you for getting Han’s attention. You’ve been loving him the past ten years, and so have I.”
“Do you remember the only text Han ever replied to you? You’ve probably forgotten all about it. I
remember you asking Han to stay and go to college together. He replied saying yes. I also remember
the day he snapped a picture of you using your cell phone when you were asleep. I’ve been so jealous
of you. I wanted so badly to be you…” Regina’s voice faltered.
Leah’s mind went blank. She didn’t recall any of these, but tears were rolling down her cheeks as she
listened to Regina. “Will you please stop talking? Tell me more after we get out, okay?”
“Did you truly believe we could walk out of here alive?” Regina sneered at her and she coughed more
blood. “Don’t be naive, Leah.”
Trembling, Leah wiped away Regina’s blood. Leah’s warmth reminded Regina of her dying body. She
lifted a weak smile. “I used to hate your gut because you took away the love of my life. Now I can no
longer hate you.”
She paused to take a deep breath. “Why did you have to get me water miles away in the dead of
winter? Why did you have to help me with homework until late at night? Why did you have to take the
blame for me to run around the field?”
Her voice was faltering and her vision became blurry. She grabbed Leah’s hand, “I wish we had never
met, Leah. Maybe then, my life will end differently.”
Leah couldn’t stop sobbing. Regina was dying and Leah couldn’t do anything to help. She could only
hold Regina tightly, begging her to stay alive, “Please, stop talking. You’ll be okay, I promise. When
you’re healthy again, you can tell me anything you want.”
Despite Leah desperately trying to keep Regina alive, Regina slowly shut her eyes. Before she drew
her last breath, Regina muttered, “I’m glad I got to know you, Leah.”
Regina fell silent in Leah’s arms. Leah couldn’t believe it. She cried in despair, “Help! Can someone
save her please?” Nobody was there to help them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJack walked toward her, grinning. “Don’t worry, you’ll be with her soon enough.” Leah didn’t hear him.
All she could think of right now was Regina and their memories together in high school.
Taking advantage of the situation, Jack pointed the dagger at Leah’s back. He was about to stab her
when someone barged into the chop shop. The thugs shouted in surprise, “Ron!”
Ron was standing by the exit. He instantly saw Leah kneeling on the ground. After the call with Leah
this morning, he went to do some investigations and he found something fishy.
He got here following the leads he found and all he could see entering this place was a blood-soaked
Leah. He was boiling with anger. Furious, he kicked at Jack and Jack fell.
The men tailing Ron were in a rage. “How dare you touch Ron’s girl? Do you want to die?” One of them
asked Ron, “What should we do with them?”
Ron replied coldly, “Kill them all.” Jack’s blood turned cold. He fell to his knees and he begged for
forgiveness. “I’m sorry! I didn’t know she was your girl, Ron. Please forgive us!”
His pleas fell on deaf ears. Before he could finish his sentence, Ron’s men took him away – they
wouldn’t kill him in front of Leah.
It was quiet again in the chop shop. Ron approached Leah cautiously. He gently touched her shoulder,
“Are you okay?”
Leah looked at Ron with her tear-stained face. She saw a gleam of hope in him. “Ron, you’re here.
Please save her…”
