0 Celsius: To thaw a frozen heart novel Chapter 9

His voice held so much anger that I felt like crying

His stare made me step back with fear scared of what he will do

"You clumsy woman!! Keep those disgusting hands of your steady or go die somewhere!! How dare you hurt her!! Do you even know who she is!!"

"Alessandro..stop..it's alright.."

Andrea pleaded from behind but he continued to use the words which were breaking me piece by piece

"Lowlifes like you don't even deserve to step into a place like this bit we were generous to offer you this job....but you being a ungrateful brat couldn't do one thing right.......Hell you can't even walk properly how come you were hired for this job!!"

Endless tears were flowing down my cheeks as he continued to reprimand me

"Alessandro..Please...stop"

"No Andrea I will not stop. Can’t you see what she did.....You are too innocent and generous... you don't know girls like her.....they envy you and when they can't compete against you they engage in these dirty tactics .....bloody disgusting people...."

I looked up into his eyes ....my eyes asking him if this was what he thought of me...

I was never this low...

How could he even think I did this deliberately!

"Oh my god...your hand..."

Andrea said looking at my hand

Everyone looked at my hands and had a shocked look

I looked down to see my entire hand turned red with blisters everywhere.

I felt numb earlier but now as I saw my wound I started feeling the suppressed pain I was feeling

My teardrops were not just because of his words but also from the pain of this burn

Andrea rushed towards me with a worried look at her face

"Maria..bring ..the coolant hurry. We need to call the doctor.."

She was something else

So pure and caring

My eyes lifted to see Ando

He had a expression I couldn't decipher

His eyes were fixed on my burn but I couldn't tell if he was worried or not.

But soon that expression was gone as he turned around and left.

I looked at his retreating back wondering since when did he become so heartless.
