Aurora's POV

I looked at the man shocked and frozen in my place.

"He is dead!"

I mumbled in shock. I looked at his body, which was badly wounded and was heavily bleeding.

"He died on the spot!"

The man beside him screamed at me.

"You!"

He got up while fuming in anger.

"You are the same girl, right?"

He accused.

"You had an argument with him in the restaurant... You did it on purpose. You killed him!"

I shook my head furiously. I can't do this and that too for little argument. Has he gone crazy? It was an accident for god's sake!

My eyes turned glossy. No matter what, he died because of me.

"Excuse me, Mr Whatever!"

Catherine gritted.

"You crazy fuckers were driving like you were snakes in past lives and you made us lose control... It's your fault and he was a piece of shit anyway."

I looked at Catherine.

"Don't say that about a dead person."

It sounds really bad, but she is right; it was their fault that they were driving roughly.

Police and medical help arrived at the spot. They took the body with them and officers approached us.

"What happened here? We need everyone's statement."

The officer said.

"Officer, it's not an accident. She killed him. They had an argument this afternoon."

The man told the officers everything.

"It was an accident, you stupid bastard. Are you fucking dumb?"

Catherine yelled at him.

She shouldn't have done that because the officers got offended.

"You both need to come to the station with us and you too..."

He looked at the man.

"Arrest them!"

The man demanded.

The officer grabbed my arm and his touch made me uncomfortable.

"You can't touch me... Call lady officer..."

I jerked off his hand.

"Don't show this attitude to me, bitch... You are already in trouble"

He grabbed my arm tightly, making me hiss, and pushed me in the car.

"What the hell, you can't touch her... This is against the rule..."

Catherine yelled at him.

"Don't teach me fucking rules..."

He threatened and forced us into the car.

Catherine looked at me helplessly and I looked at her hopelessly. Why is this day so fucked up?

I hope they believe us and let us go.

"Mr Roy, are you okay?"

The officer asked the man who was sitting in front of him.

"I am fine, I just want these girls behind bars... Put all possible charges on them, they shouldn't be coming out of the jail for the rest of their lives."

He ordered and it seemed like he knew the officer.

"Don't worry, Mr Roy... I'll take care of that"

The officer said.

Catherine mouthed 'what the hell' at me. We understood that they were going to frame us.

We reached the police station and it was the same station which I approached to complain about Rafael. I know how the system here is corrupted and disabled. They are pawns of rich people.

We sat on the chairs, and Catherine squeezed my hand gently to reassure me, but she herself looked scared.

The man was telling everything to the officers and most of the things were lies. He was trying to get us into trouble and when we were trying to talk, they were not letting us.

It was frustrating!

There was a noise of cars outside and a group of people entered. The lady in white mini dress and the man in a business suit, they were an old couple.

"Where is she?"

She yelled.

"Who killed my son?"

"Great! Only this was remaining"

Catherine slapped her forehead, and I looked at them, scared and worried. I don't know what they are going to do to us. They look rich and powerful, and the restaurant manager also said that they are rich and powerful.

"That bitch!"

Roy pointed at me.

I gulped when that lady looked at me angrily.

"Why? You bitch!"

She screamed and we flinched.

"I am going to kill you... You killed my only child"

She stormed towards me and raised her hand, making me flinch in my chair, but before she could touch me, Cathrine caught her hand mid-air and pushed her back.

The lady didn't like it and that fueled her anger.

"How dare you!"

She cursed her.

Catherine gritted and stood in front of me.

"Listen, you old dumb shit!"

I gasped when she said that.

"First of all, Aurora didn't kill anyone. It was an accident... Your crazy son was driving recklessly and came in front of our car, which made us lose our balance... You can check surveillance cameras."

"But you had an argument with him, it can't be a coincidence.."

Roy accused.

Catherine scowled at him.

"We didn't go to him to have an argument, he came to us and didn't leave even after warning... It was his fault. And if you check the highway cameras then you will realise that we were on that way before them. They came behind us and tried to overtake unnecessarily... You can see their way of driving... It was a pure coincidence that this accident happened, and we are innocent!"

"She is right"

I stood beside her, although my voice wasn't as strong and confident as hers.

"We are innocent, it was a pure accident... Trust me... And he was wearing a helmet, we couldn't even see their faces, how can you accuse that we killed him when we couldn't even recognise him... And who kills people because of a small argument?"

The lady glared at me.

"You keep your fucking mouth shut..."

She snapped her fingers at me.

"You killed my son and I am going to make you pay for that... I don't care if it was an accident or not..."

I frowned at her, it was wrong. My insides were burning in anger but I couldn't do anything. I was already in trouble.

I don't have money or power like them, nor do I have any means to save myself, and the guilt is that Catherine is in trouble because of me. It's all my fault.

"Fine, it's my fault.. please let her go!"

I requested.

Catherine frowned at me.

"What? Are you crazy? I am not leaving you alone here"

"A car is registered with her name, and you both are equally responsible."

The officer chuckled like he knew that he had the upper hand.

"You don't worry Ma'am... I'll take care of it..."

He flashed his yellow teeth.

"Just make sure I get my reward on time."

"You take as much as you want but these girls shouldn't step out of bars again..."

She gritted.

"This is wrong"

I gasped in disbelief.

"You guys are clearly bribing them and framing us falsely... That too in front of us... How could you?..."

I yelled.

"I will! And I am going to do that..."

The lady challenged.

"Who are you? Who the fuck are you?"

She growled.

"A common girl who lives in trash! Do you know who the fuck I am?... We are the system and you are low-life labour who works for the system... You killed my son and now I am going to end your trash life!"

She was promising.

"How are you going to stop me?... Having beauty is not enough, bank accounts should look beautiful too!... Bloody labourers!"

I closed my eyes in anger. How dare she? What these rich people think of themselves.

I couldn't control myself and raised my hand, it collided with her cheek as strongly as it could, and the voice echoed in the station.

Her head snapped aside and she looked in shock.

I don't care, she can't insult me like this just because her bank balance is more than mine.

"How dare you?"

She looked at me with those furious eyes.

"What's happening here?"

I looked at the door, and Ken was standing there, confused.

"Put her behind the bar and give her some lessons"

The officer ordered his staff and my eyes widened.

Catherine grabbed my hand and pulled me closer.

We were in deep shit.

Ken looked at me and all the colours from his face drained.

"What is she doing here?"

He growled and everyone looked at him.

"Who brought her here?"

Ken asked that officer.

"Did you register her complaint? Against whom did she complain?"

He asked, thinking I was here to complain about Rafael. He was scared.

"Complaint is against her"

The officer informed him about everything and Ken froze.

"You arrested her?"

Ken asked shocked.

"Leave. now!"

He joined his hands in front of me and requested.

"What? Have you lost your mind, Ken?"

The officer yelled madly.

"She is the prime suspect of the murder, and she killed the son of Mrs Doragi... We can't just let her go."

Ken grabbed his head.

"Clayton, you will get all of us killed... Let her go, man. You don't know who she is!"

"Ohh, cut the crap... Just say that you don't want me to get commission... This is another way to mess with everything I do!"

Clayton, the officer accused Ken.

Why is Ken so scared? It wasn't like Rafael was going to come here and save me. He just cares about my body. Nothing else!

"Madam, please leave!"

Ken requested me again.

"No! She is not going anywhere... Arrest her!"

Clayton ordered.

"How much money do you need, Ken?"

Mrs Doragi asked.

"I'll give whatever you want, just punish these girls.

"I don't want your fucking money"

Ken yelled at her.

"I care about my life and my family... And if you want to live then let her go..."

"Sorry, Mrs Doragi! He has lost his mind... There is no way, I am letting her go."

Clayton said.

"Arrest them. Now!"

Officers came to us and I grabbed Catherine's hand tightly.

Before they could touch us, they fell at our feet which made us look confused. But then I noticed blood pooling around our feet, and I stepped back with a scream.

I looked up and froze when those grey orbs stared back at me and those lips said hello with a signature smirk.

"Rafael"

I mumbled in disbelief.
