Its Too Late To Forgive

Chapter 15: 15. DEVIL'S SIREN



Chapter 15: 15. DEVIL'S SIREN

Bella could immediately recognize this shadow. It's him, he is here.

Bella instantly panicked. She need to escape. Fast!!

"Hey, pay...... Oh.. Hello Miss ?

Why are you getting back in the car??

I told you to pay and get lost."

"Sir, please quick!! Please start the car!!! I 'll pay."

Bella was panicking, she took all her money from her pocket and hurriedly gave them to the driver. She begged him,

"Please Sir, start the car! Hurry!!"

"What the heck do you think..." before he could finish the sentence, he saw even more money in front of him.

Bella with shaking hands took out all the money that she had, apart from the 500 dollars, from her pocket. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

"I 'll give it to you, sir , all of it, just drive now sir. Please start your car! Hurry!!"

She looked behind while talking. She started panting now. Her breathing was lowered. He was getting closer and closer......

"Hurry! Hurry!! Is it too less for you?

I.. I have more! I really have more!! In my bank!

Start the car sir, and I will withdraw more and give you , once you take me to a safe place."

She was barely making sense now. Her face was full of panic and devoid of blood. It seems as if she has seen a ghost infront of her.

The driver looked at her as if she was a lunatic.. no he concluded that she was a crazy woman. He really didn't wanted to help her but when he saw the money that woman was offering - he accepted.

He grabbed the cash from Bella and said, "Sit tight."

He turned the key and the engine roared. The taxi began to drive forward.

After she was released from the prison, she just wanted a peaceful and quite life. She wanted just enough to eat and a place to sleep, to be able to sustain herself and save some money so that she could fulfil her promise. And to move to a place far away from City A , where she can see clear sky and beautiful sunshine, which she missed in the prison.

Bella had barely begun to heave a sigh of relief when....

Screeeeechhhh......

There was a harsh squeal of the taxi's tires on the road, but it came from outside.

"What the hell?

Nothing is going right today." complained the taxi driver.

"Are these guys after you?

Did you steal something from them??

Why are they chasing you so badly???"

The taxi driver turned and glanced at the woman in the passenger seat with anger but suddenly fell quiet, swallowing all the words on his tongue. The woman's teeth were chattering, and she was all curled up in a ball, looking in front of her in terror and despair.

She looked like she had seen death or even worse.

Immediately she moved and closed all the car windows , locked all the doors and shrunk into a ball.

The driver was about to say something when someone knocked on the door of the taxi next to Bella.

"Please come out, Miss Evans."

Bella turned paler, burying her head deeper into her chest, pretending not seeing or hearing them.

Seeing that, Martin Li knocked on the driver's window twice.

"Kindly open the back door."

The voice was very bossy and official, with no emotions. Bella knew that even though they used the word 'please', it was an order rather then a request.

Bella panicked and screamed at the driver, "Sir, Don't open the door, I will pay you ....."

Suddenly.....

Smashhhhhh!!!!!

There was a loud noise and the passenger's side window shattered into pieces. This sudden escalation scared Bella till death and she urinated.

The taxi driver was also spooked out.

"Hey... you... I will call thw police!! What you people are doing is against the law! I won't let......"

Before he could finish his sentence , SWOOSH!!!

A stack of brand new notes fell on his co-pilot seat. Seeing the stack, he guessed it must be around ten thousand or more.

Outside the car window, another bodyguard Ray Li , Martin's younger brother, said stiffly, "Can you open the door now?"

"Yes... yes... right away sir!!"

the driver's eyes were sparkling with all the money thrown infront of him. He quickly opened the door and scolded Bella, "Hey , you, get out, Now ."

He was sure that this lunatic ugly woman must have offended some rich and powerful man. He was now even more ruder to her then what he was earlier.

He was more abusive and forcefully chased her out of the taxi. Bella refused to leave the cab, she was desperately clinging on the seat. On seeing that, the driver grabbed her , yanking by her hair and arm roughly.

"You fucking bitch... Get out! I am not going to drive you anymore! Hurry!!"

Bella hung onto the seat, shaking her head desperately.

"Please don't.. No don't force me out of the taxi."

A pair of cold and angry eyes were seeing everything that was going on infront of him. He heard everything that the driver said and also the way Bella was trying to hold on to the taxi's seat.

He was angry.

"Get out" he said in a slight cool manner. That familiar voice made Bella's spine stiffen in an instant.

'No, he is not talking to me. Don't turn around. Everything will be fine as far as I don't listen.'. she thought.

"You know very well that I don't like repeating myself."

"Nobody knows better then you what will happen if I get angry." his voice was like a satan.

All the blood disappeared from her face in an instant. She knew. Ofcourse she knew! How could she not know!!

Hence, she came out of the car slowly despite her terror.

The man was standing leaning on his car. He held a cigarette, taking a long dreg. He held out his other hand and beckoned her over, "come here."

His deep voice could easily mesmerize any woman around. It can hypnotize anyone head to heels. But to Bella, that voice was the devil's siren!

She did not want to go to him. But she dare not defy him. She automatically approached the man, slowly.

The man frowned his beautiful brows, his gaze was fixed on her limping leg. He then tired to see her face but couldn't see clearly.

Her head was low. She held her limping leg with her hand and walked towards him slowly.

"It's useless Bella Evans. You are just trying to buy time by literally dragging your feet till her.... Good act!"

Bella pimched her thigh hard.. she was certain that Henry believed that she was putting up an act just to buy sometime.

How she wish he was right! If only she was just buying time...

Yet the truth was... the truth! Hah!!

She gritted her teeth. There was a familiar pain again in her thighs as she hastened her footsteps. Bella pinched herself mercilessly.

The man's lips curved slightly when he saw her quicken her steps.. That's better. Now he was sure that she is his personal toy.

He reached out his hand and put it over Bella's shoulders. Henry blew out the last puff of smoke and held the butt behind him without even looking back. Ray Li immediately took the cigarette butt from him.

The very next second, a large hand grabbed her by the chin, Bella felt a jolt of pain but did not complain.

Henry turned her chin left to right, his sharp gaze caught Bella's embarrasement and enjoyed it thoroughly.

"UFFF ~ since when has the proud and arrogant Miss. Evans fallen to a point where a mere taxi driver can insult her as he likes, and yet all she can do it to apologize? No dignity left or what? "

"You had someone follow me... You won't let me go..."

"Guess you have some brains, after all."

Bella's expression contorted, and then she gave a silent and tragic laugh... he won't let me live.

She turned to the taxi driver and said, " Sir, you wanted to know what wrong have I done..

I killed a woman he loved." Bella said while pointing towards Henry.

She spoke so slowly , but in a hoarse voice. On lookers will surely feel that the person who spoke must be an old senile woman and not a woman in her twenties.

Henry hated this feeling. His temper flared, why did she sound so old? , he grabbed her hand and tried to stuff her in his car.

However, Bella suddenly cried, "Wait, my stuff, my money!"

She managed to break free, 'ran' towards the taxi. Although for her she was running but for everyone else she was just walking a little fast while limping.

When she was almost at the taxi, a long arm wound around her waist. She is so thin and light, he thought.

"My stuff.. my money! Without money, I can't....."

"Without money, you can't run away." a cold voice interrupted her.

"Am I right?"

Bella blinked.. No! ofcourse not!! She wanted money, lots and lots of it. She had made a promise.

Her money! Her promise!! Her freedom!!!

"Let go of me! I want my money k!" Bella struggled and roared at the driver at the top of her voice, "Give me back my money!"

"Hey bitch, you gave me that money, but ofcourse you can't have it back."

Naturally, the driver did not want to lose a single cent. After all, this lunatic had killed that wealthy young master's woman. She was certain to meet a nasty end.

"Give me back my money!" Bella's eyes turned red. She had screamed so hard, that now she was unable to speak at all. Still speaking word by word,

" I... I am beg-g-ing you, ppllease! P-pleasr give me b-back my m-money." Bella pleaded, angry and pathetic at the same time.

"I c-can't keep my p-promisee if I don't don't have the m-money."

UFffffff~

Henry's temper blazed!

He could not believe that this was the same Bella Evans he knew.

He remembered her as the woman who boldly confessed to him, again and again, raising her beautiful chin proudly after his cold rejection and telling him, "The woman who suits you , Henry Jackson, should be confident and capable, like me. In short only I am capable for becoming Mrs. Bella Jackson. "

Back then, she would even tell him with a straight face, "Henry, you know what! You are too powerful and influential. You have too many enemies and competitors. You can't have any weaknesses. Firstly your woman can not be weak and secondly it has to be me."

Every time, he would tell her off, saying, "How could you be so despicable? Going after your friend's man?" but frankly only Henry knew the truth of this statement.

But however, everytime, she would say, "As far as you are not married, for me you are single. Even if I tell you things about Cindy, you won't believe me so I don't want to waste my energy on it.

But the day you get married to her or anybody else, I will give you a wide berth!!"

She used to be such an arrogant woman. And to say the truth Henry actually loved this side of her's.

"I'm begging you sir, please give me back my money." All he could hear now was her pathetic pleading.

Henry's expression was hard.. 'is she really Bella Evans?'

He grabbed her wrist and dragged her back towards his car.

"Money.. my money.. my bag! Let go of me, I can't go anywhere without them!" Her voice winned in his ears. Henry's eyes turned even more colder.. He knew it, she really was trying to escape!

Henry suddenly stopped and glanced at Martin Li. "Go check her luggage. Take away all her cash and bank cards."

Bella panicked the moment she heard this, "What are you trying to do?"

Henry laughed coldly.

" So you want to run away?

Do you think you could run away from me only if you have money??"

He pressed his lips against her ears, his voice was a nightmare.

" How could I let go of you easily? You should have gone far the very first day you were released. Now I have sights on you, Bella, you are not going anywhere."

He placed his palm on her cheek and said, "Bella, oh Bella, either you're too naive , or I've gotten too kind."

Immediately, Henry dragged Bella and roughly stuffed her into the car before quickly darting inside with her.

But before he could do so, Martin Li came and informed him about the driver nagging about something. Henry ordered his subordinates to guard the door and went upto the taxi.

He saw what the driver was nagging about. Seeing him, the driver immediately spoke,

"You see Sir, that fucking bitch just peeed in my car. How disgusting. Sir don't let her go easily."

Henry was in mixed emotions right now. He gave Martin a look, his sharp gaze coldly sweeped across the driver. Martin slightly nodded to indicate that he understood.

He returned to his car. "Start the car."

Henry was quite and hundreds of questions were running in his mind... What happened to her?

Why is so humble??

Whom is so scared off???

He remembered the yellow coloured fluid that he saw in his washroom at the place where Bella sqauted. And again now. Why??
