of the hall. Now,” he commands without taking his eyes from David, who is now turning to face his attacker toe to toe.
I watch as Gabby ushers the children first through the door saying something about having cookies down the hall. She is followed by Kevin and Sage. Simone is quietly trying to explain who David is to my parents and encourages them to follow the rest of the group away from danger.
God love my parents, they aren’t budging. Mom approaches Evan from the side carefully making sure he knows she is there like she’s dealing with one of dad’s many stray animals that he drags home. “Evan dear, shall we get you back to bed, I believe this man has wandered into the wrong room.” Mom gives David a death glare like I’ve never seen; she’s warning him off, giving him an imaginary out and effectively trying to save his life.
“Chanel, this doesn’t concern you, go with the others,” Evan orders and amazingly my mother listens but she’s not leaving without me. She takes hold of my hand and pulls me along with her out the door.
“No! I’m not leaving them together, Mom! Let me go!” I scream alerting the nurses that there’s a problem brewing. I yank my arm free of my mother’s clutch whirling around I see Evan’s eyes roll back into his head, and he collapses in a heap on the floor at David's feet.
“Evan!” I scream and throw myself on my knees sliding across the floor to him.”
“Help! We need help; he’s seizing!!” Nurses flock to the area, and David takes a step back allowing them to work. My breath catches when I see the smallest hint of a smile lifting the corners of his mouth, this was intentional. He knew if Evan saw him trying to take me away from him it would push him over the edge; he was even willing to take another beating to make it happen. My mouth drops open, and I stare in shock as Evan is turned onto his side convulsing, and David slips his hands into his pockets, standing back to watch with satisfaction.
I splay my hands on the cold tile of the ICU floor and with every bit of strength left in my reserve, I push myself to stand and go to David surprising him by leaving my possibly dying husband’s side during a crisis. Somehow I’ve collected the composure to speak instead of scream. Harnessing my anger and using it to deliver a message to David, I plant myself in front of him and lift my top lip in disgust while I begin.
“You did this. I know you did. I’m not sure why you think you need to interject yourself into my life, but you have so let me tell you what’s gonna happen right here right fucking now, Dr. Carter. You are going to go have an OR prepped, organize the people you need to do Evan’s surgery, and save my husband's life.” A tiny sign of shock crosses his eyes before he folds his arms across his chest and sneers at me.
“Why in the hell would I do that? He’s going to die anyway, Mia, let him go now and come home with me. He doesn’t deserve you and you know you’re not safe with him. And you’ve married him? Even better, you’ll be a filthy rich widow.”
Shaking my head back and forth violently I can barely restrain myself from strangling this crazy man to death with my bare hands. I feel them moving Evan from the floor to a gurney behind me while I speak to David.
“I would rather live the rest of my life in fear than go anywhere with you. And listen close because this is the reason you’re going to do as I say. I am a rich woman now; you got that right, and Evan has a very long reach with the Norgnhenta, you know them?” I screech my unnecessary question; he knows who I’m talking about, everybody here does. “One of the top five most powerful criminal organizations in the world?” I’ve been doing my homework, and I know much more about the mafia Evan is connected to and David should be on his knees begging for forgiveness, he obviously has no idea what he’s really dealing with. He knows it’s bad, but the fact that he
