Butterfly and the CEO
Chapter 23
Zac’s point of view.
The following week passes, and still no sign of Sam from either the police or from Issac's sources. I can see how angry he is with this; Issac has come to look at Ellie like a daughter, and Ellie every night I go home, I can see her getting more and more frustrated, and I know that her being at home all the time is driving her crazy. After she explained how Sam kept her prisoner, I can understand how hard this is on her.
It’s Friday afternoon, and I’m just getting ready to head home for the week

I’m lying on an old mattress on the floor in a room with no windows, I try to sit up, but it makes me feel sick and dizzy.“What the hell happened? Where am I?”I try to remember…..I was in the car with Issac, and there was a crash ….. And.“Ohhh, Noooo Sam…” I gasp.

Butterfly and the CEOChapter 28Zac’s point of view.I hold my breath as I walk into the intensive care room; my heart breaks when I see her. She looks so tiny in that hospital bed surrounded by wires and machines, her face so swollen that I can barely recognise her. The nurse pulls out a chair for me as she says.“Sir, you can take a seat next to the bed; I’ll be at the desk if you need me,”I nod my head before I ask the nurse.“Can I hold her hand?”She smiles as she replies.&nbs

We decided to go back to Zac’s apartment for a few weeks rather than his house, as there are no stairs once we are inside. There is a knock on the door; as the nurse pops her head around the corner, she smiles as she looks at us both before she says.“Here you go, Ellie; I think that you have everything that you need. I've arranged a follow-up appointment for
