The rain seemed to be getting heavier, filling the mud puddle with more water.
Trapped in the mud, Elena couldn't stand up. She had no choice but to take the beating.
She waited silently for an opening. If Emily dared to get close enough, she would use the same method to kill her, too.
But Emily had learned her lesson. She kept her distance, knowing Elena couldn't get up, and struck her repeatedly with the long club.
Thwack!
Thwack!
Elena gritted her teeth, holding on.
She was beaten into the ground, feeling consciousness slipping away.
Rainwater streamed down her face, blurring her vision.
"Stop!" A voice suddenly called out, interrupting Emily.
"Why are you bullying a homeless person?" the newcomer demanded.
"None of your business! Get lost! Don't meddle in things that don't concern you. I'm going to kill her today!" Emily screamed like a madwoman.
The newcomer stepped forward and looked down at Elena. When she saw her face, she gasped in shock.
"Elena! It's you!"
Hearing someone call her name, Elena forced her eyes open and saw a familiar face.
"Bian..." It was Bianca.
What was Bianca doing here?
Elena didn't have the strength to ask.
"You better get out of here. Do you know who she is? She's Elena Whelan, of the Whelan family, and Dylan's fiancée. If you don't leave right now, I'll call people over, and you'll be in more trouble than you can handle!"
Emily panicked.
