CHAPTER 92
Chapter 92
Summer Frost POV
I had no idea who brought down all the posts about me on the internet, but I was grateful to whoever the person was. Reading through the comments almost every damn time, unable to resist it was already slowly killing me inside.
There were hundreds of work–related emails lining up in my mailbox while waiting for me to attend to them, but I didn’t have the strength to. I wasn’t in my right frame of mind to perform surgery on anyone. I didn’t want to be the cause of the death of any patient, so it was better to take a break for now.
My finger trembled as I clicked on the Instagram ‘icon‘, and there were message notifications waiting for me. As I scrolled through them slowly, all I could say was ‘wow‘. I didn’t know that I could be bullied this much. I didn’t click on any of the messages and just left all of them unread as I didn’t want to ruin my day.
I was about to exit the app when a message caught my attention. It was a text from Hunter.
Hunter had been trying to reach me after the incident. He had sent me series of texts and had called me several times, but I ignored all of it.
As much as I was guilty about what I did to him, I didn’t regret my action one bit. I couldn’t have allowed myself to live the rest of my life
miserably and go through the same pain I went through in the hands of Xander’s mom in the past, yeah?
‘You were going to do it. You have Xander to thank for helping you out‘ My subconscious mind reminded me, and I sighed.
I finally exited the app without replying to his message. I didn’t know what to say to him, so there was no point reading his message then.
‘Xander‘ I came across his number as I scrolled through my call logs for no reason, and paused. I had the urge to call him, but a part of me
told me not to, and I gave in to the latter and scrolled past it.
“Chloe…” I muttered and scrolled for a few more seconds before I spotted her number. I dialled it immediately and held the phone to my ear, waiting for her to answer the call, and after a few seconds, her voice sounded from the other end.
“Sorry for being late, ma’am. I was in the bathroom,”
“It’s fine. How are you doing? Are you fine over there?” It must’ve been hard for her to lodge in an hotel all alone, but I couldn’t find any better
solution for the time being.
“Hmm… I’m fine and managing here,” It was evident in her voice that she was not fine, and I understood how she must be feeling.
“Are you sure you are fine?”
“Hmm,” I heard her hum, and I exhaled deeply.
“Alright. I just called to check up on you. Hang in there… I promise to do something as soon as possible. I promise,” I assured her even though I was yet to figure out what to do about the whole thing. I had all the money I could use to start a new life, but here was the only safe place I could stay for now. Mr. Miller would find me and force me to stay with Hunter if I decided to stay alone, and I would be stuck for the rest of my
life.
“I’m counting on you, ma’am,”

“Take care of yourself. I’ll call you again. Bye,” I exhaled deeply once the call disconnected.

I left my phone inside the room and headed into the bathroom to ease myself as I feel pressed, and once I was done, I walked back inside the room. However, I met the screen light of my phone on, so I walked over to it and picked it up. A text from Mr. Miller welcomed me once I unlocked it, and I sighed.
“You have two days left, Summer. I will only be patient with you for the next two days, and if you don’t show up here, then consider your whole career gone with wind. I will destroy you, and that is a promise‘ Came another threatening message from him. Though I was scared of the threats knowing he could actually do something, but somehow, I was ready for the worse to happen. No way I would go back to him.
“I’m going to tell the whole world your identity and tell them how I found you. You don’t want to dare me, Summer. Trust me‘ came another text from him that left my heart wrenching in pain. If I had known things was going to turn out this way, maybe I would’ve had a second thought back then.
“You would’ve been dead by now‘ My subconscious mind reminded me, and as much as I wanted to think or conclude that it would’ve been better to have died that time, I knew that I didn’t want to die. I needed to stay alive for the sake of my pregnancy then.
“Everything will be fine. Don’t panic,” I assured myself as I put my phone away and lie on the bedz staring up at the ceiling as many thoughts lingered on my mind.
For the first time in years, the thought of my parents crossed my mind. They abandoned a little girl without thinking twice. I wondered what
happened to them and what must’ve made them to do that. Even if I was an unwanted child, they didn’t have to be so cruel, right?
“Maybe they are dead now. You don’t have to think about them‘ My subconscious mind told me as I tossed on the bed and lay on my stomach, staring into space.
“They are not worth it. Don’t think about them,” I whispered to myself, but deep inside me, I wanted to see them at least once, not because I
missed them as I nevershared a bond with them to begin with, but to ask them why they abandoned me. I wanted to know if I was that bad
that they had to do that to me.
The sound of the car honking from outside pulled me back to reality, and a smile formed on my lips as I rose from the bed and ambled toward the window. My heart lit up in excitement when I saw Xander’s car just pulling over at the parking lot. I was sad just a few seconds ago, but all that had disappeared now that Xander was here.
“He is here,” I squeaked excitedly as I advanced toward the floor–length mirror.
“I think this is better,” I muttered once I packed up my hair in a tight ponytail.
“Doesn’t look too good,” I changed my mind as I got rid of the band used to hold the hair together, letting them fall freely down my shoulders.
“This is perfect,” A smile formed on my lips as I looked at my beautiful reflection in the mirror one last time before leaving the room to go welcome him. Well, not entirely to welcome him, but to see him, rather….
