Giselle's POV. All my body was trembling, and seeing a smile made me want to lose hope. The only thing I could think of was Bryan, is the only one that could save me, I prayed that he would appear, and save me from this trauma. “Don't come near me!” I screamed again. But he kept coming closer, he bent to my level, I wanted to attack him, but he outsmarted me. He pinned my hand to a car, and he smiled like a maniac. “Why are you pushing me away? You want us,” he said, and I looked confused. “What are you saying? Us?” I asked, and he smiled. “Yes, we were close before, weren't we?” he asked. And I looked at him like someone who has lost it. “That was all your wishful thinking, you crazy bastard! Go see a doctor,” I said, and he hit my face with a resounding slap. “Ahhh!” I winced in pain. “Did I hurt you? I did not want to hurt you, you pushed me to,” he said. ‘'He is crazy,' I said inwardly. “Did it hurt?” He asked, and he brought out a duct tape. “What are you doing?!” I
Bryan's POV. She got down from the car, and I drove back to the parking lot. I walked towards the hall then I saw Mr Edward. “Mr Lopez, you are still around,” he asked, and I smiled. “Yes, how was the program?” I asked. “It went well,” he said, and I smiled lightly. “That's great to hear,” I said. “Of course,” he said. “Then,” I said, and bowed slightly. I turned to leave, but I halted my steps after hearing his voice. “If you don't mind, Will please have a cup of coffee with me, Mr Lopez,” he requested. And I checked my wrist watch. I did not want to make Giselle wait. “Fifteen minutes,” I said, and he nodded. “Shall we?” He said, then we went to his office. We sat down, and we were served by his secretary who was sending me an uncomfortable gaze, but ignored it, because people throw themselves at big shots regardless of their age. “I must say, your office is gorgeous. Mr Edward,” I said, and he smiled. “You are too kind, Mr Lopez,” he said, and I nodded. “We are not h
Bryan's POV.“Who?!” I screamed, and the man jerked up from the bed. I looked at Giselle's state and I was furious. I ran towards the man and kicked him hard before he could process what was happening. “Ahhhhhhhhh!” He grunt in pain, and stood up immediately to attack me, but I dodged him. I kept hitting, and made him lose his balance, and he fell on the ground. I bounced on him and punched him repeatedly, and he started to bleed and didn't stop because of my anger. “What did you plan to do?” I asked, and he smiled like a maniac. And that made me lose my control. I punched his face and I almost damaged it.“Stop! Stop hitting him,” Giselle said, and I stopped. And the police arrived at that time. Because I called them when I was on my way to the basement.“Mr Lopez, are you hurt?” one of the policemen asked. “No, that’s him,” I said, pointing at the sociopath. They walked to him, and arrested him. They took him out, and I told them to wait outside.I walked towards Giselle that was
Giselle's POV.When I saw Bryan coming in my scattered hope was rebuilt. He ran towards the stalker, and started hitting him. I didn't know he was that strong, I did not want to tell him to stop, but then the man was acting like someone who was going to die anytime soon.“Stop! Stop hitting him,” I said, and he stopped. But then I heard a loud footsteps coming closer, and I covered my face. They came in, and it turned out to be the police men, and I guessed that Bryan was summoned. They asked hurt, and he replied effortlessly. They arrested the stalker, and they all left like that was someone's order. Bryan came closer to me, and looked at me worriedly. “I am sorry,” he said, coming closer to me , and I nodded. ‘'It was never your fault,' I said inwardly, and wanted to cry thinking of what could have happened if he didn't show up.“It's okay, I'm here now,” I said, holding my hands. “I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left the spot, I am sorry,” he said, feeling sorry, and I couldn't believ
Giselle's POV.We went to the car, and he started driving. We did not talk since we got inside the car. And I didn't have the strength to start a conversation. I faced that kind of experience and I did not even have the support of my so-called husband. I was down and I had time to even chat. But then I remembered something, So I decided to ask Bryan.“Can I ask you something?” I asked, and he nodded at me. And I went silent for a while. “Go on,” he said, telling me to talk, then I sighed heavily. 'I hope he says the truth' I thought.“How did you know that he was the stalker from the other day?” I asked, and he did not say anything. “Huh? You recognized him earlier, and you did not seem surprised when you entered the basement,” I said, and he cleared his throat.“How did you even find me? Because my phone was switched off, and you don't even have my number, how were you able to do it? How did you know him? He has never been to your school before, right?” I asked hurriedly, and parked
Giselle's POV.“We are here,” Bryan said, and there was no excitement on my face. “I know,” I said, and I was still sitting. He looked at me weirdly, and I smiled faintly at him. “Why are you looking at me like that?” I asked, and he shook his head. “I- I, it's nothing,” he said, but I knew that he wanted to ask me a question.“Say it,” I said, and he looked at me for permission and I nodded at him, telling him to go ahead. “Okay, don't you want to go home?” He asked, and I was dumbfounded, by the question.“What do you mean? Why would you ask that?” I asked. “Sorry no offense, but you just look like you don't want to go home, like there is trouble inside or something that might give you a headache,” he said, and I smiled faintly. ‘Oops he just summarized my problem in one sentence’ I thought, I was facing the exact problem, and it was even more that he could imagine, but I did not dare to admit that in front of him.“What do you mean by that? I was just too tired to walk inside,” I s
Giselle's POV.“Who is this?” I wondered.Seeing the strange number made me nervous thinking it was another psychopath, I waited until it finished ringing. Then I climbed the bed, and wanted to rest until my phone rang again. I jerked up when the loud sound echoed in the room. “Did I really use this as my ringing tone?” I asked myself, referring to the song.I picked my phone, and checked the caller ID, and it was unknown. “Unknown caller? Again?” I asked myself silently. I could not avoid it again, so I mustered up some courage and picked it up.I waited until the person from the other group talked. “Hello,” a deep voice from the other said , and I felt like the voice was familiar, but I did not want to believe it. “Hello,” I said slowly.I waited patiently for the person to say something again. “How are you?” The voice from the other end said, and I got curious about who the person was. “Who am I speaking with?” I asked, and the person went silent. 'Why is he quiet?’ I thought. “It
Bryan's POV.I smiled with satisfaction after I ended the call with Giselle, but then I felt something strange. “Why does she sound so sad?” I asked myself. Then I wondered why she didn't want to be involved in the case again. I wondered what made her say something like that.I was scared of calling her before, but after that call ended I couldn't help but think about her husband. “Did he even know about her wife's incident?” I asked myself, after I remembered how Giselle told me that he went on a trip, because I would not be able to sleep if I heard such a thing happened to my beloved.I wondered if something was wrong with her marriage she didn't sound happy when I first heard the voice, and she has been distracted for the past few days. So I thought she was going through tough time in her marriage, and I did not know what I was feeling. I did not know whether I should be happy or sad, but I didn't want my Giselle to be sad, so I decided to make her happy.I knew that she would want
