Giselle's POV.“No ma'am, that will make me feel bad,” he said with a worried gaze, and I could sense what he was trying to do, but I decided to ignore it, I couldn't afford to fall into his traps.“Okay then,” I said, and I didn't miss the sign of relief on his face. I checked the food, and it was from the new restaurant, it was the most expensive restaurant in the school area.“It's the new restaurant,” I said, and he smiled with confidence, but I don't know why I sensed that.“It must be expensive,” he said, and I nodded with a smile. “I heard their food is amazing, and the taste earlier was great so they deserve the hype,” he said, trying to convince me, but what he did scared the hell out of me, I thought he was really hurt, I was never that worried about someone before, ‘why is he different?’ I thought.So I decided to taste the food, and the taste was so great, I was convinced that with just one bite, the restaurant was great.“You haven't tasted it before?” I asked.“I did tod
Chapter 9 Giselle's POV. “Hmmm .... so you will come back after lunch tomorrow?” I asked after I jolted out of my thoughts. “Yeah, I'm sorry that I'm disturbing you,” he said, and I shook my head, “no don't say that, you are my student anyway, your welfare matters a lot to me,” I said, and he nodded. Then he gazes at me weirdly, but I ignored it and smiled at him trying to set the lecturer and student boundaries. “Okay then,” I said dismissively, but he was taking the hint he was still sitting down. “Mr Lopez, I have some other things to do,” I said, making it clear that I wanted him to leave. “Okay ma'am,” he said, and stood up from the chair, “I will go now, Mrs Albert,” he said, and I nodded. Then he left my office. I felt relieved after he left. I felt suffocated being in the same space with him, not in a negative way, but he just won't stop staring at me, and it was uncomfortable. And when I was still happy about the freedom I have, I heard a knock on my door, “c
Giselle’s POV.‘'Who the hell is this boy?’ I thought. And stared at him, with a curious gaze, and he winked at me nonchalantly, and I immediately looked away from him.The person apologized throughout to him, and the car was moved out of the space, and I was amazed by the way he handled it, and the influence he had for the guy to feel that intimidated.“Bryan, I'm so sorry, it won't happen again,” the guy apologized again.“It's okay, you should apologize to her, not me, it's Mrs Albert parking space,” he said, pointing at me.“Oh, Mrs Albert, I'm sorry, I just wanted to go in real quick and I used your space, it won't happen again,” the guy pleaded, and I nodded.“It's okay,” I said. And the guy zoomed out, I got into my car and parked in my spot.After that I took my laptop and my bags, with some lecturing materials, and I got down from the car. I got uncomfortable knowing Bryan was waiting for me outside the car, but I couldn't find a way to avoid him.“Thank you Mr Lopez, I real
Bryan's POV.I was coming from the parking lot and I ran into My lovely Giselle and I saw she was struggling with her car parking space, and I noticed how helpless she was so I decided to step in. I was willing to use anything to steal her heart. I wanted her to be mine.Since she was the one that told me to make decisions that will make me happy and I was willing to take the risk to have my happiness, and that was her, she was my happiness, no matter how much she was offered in the marriage, I was willing to give her more.Seeing her pretty face in distress made my heart ache and she looked so stressed out without doing anything yet, I wondered what happened, ‘she wasn't like that before’, I thought . And I walked towards her direction.Good morning Mrs Albert,” I said, and she immediately turned around, she wasn't surprised that it was me, I guess my voice is that known by her.“Good morning Mr Lopez,” she said, but her face was stressed.“Is there a problem I can help with?” I aske
Bryan's POV.I hurriedly took the meal kit and dashed out of my lecture hall, but on my way out I bumped into someone.“I'm sorry, I didn't mean to___” I was apologizing, but paused after seeing the person I bumped into face, it was my greatest nightmare bumping into her will only cause me stress.“I'm sorry Ivy,” I said, and turned to leave, but I halted my steps after hearing my name being called out, “Bryan,” Ivy called, and I turned around. “What is it?” I asked bluntly, and she was giving a sad look, which I did not care about, she can be pretentious at times.“Please, can we talk?” She asked pitifully, and I checked my wrist watch knowing I did not have time for her act, “say whatever you want to say now,” I said hurriedly.“Can we go somewhere else and talk?” she asked, and I checked the time. It was almost time for her lecture, so I had no time left .“Hmmmmmmmm…. Ivy, I really don't have time for this. What about later after the lecture? It can wait right?” I suggested.“No,
Bryan's POV.I turned around and walked towards her rapidly, and I pinned her to the wall.“If you ever try anything stupid to hurt her, I will make sure to destroy you,” I said, and walked out of the place.I went to her office for the counseling as usual, and I got to the doorstep and I noticed that it was locked, and I wondered why she wasn't in her office, so I decided to check her regular lecture hall.And I wanted to call her, but that was when I realized that I did not have her phone number so I went into the engineering lecture halls, but I still did not find her, then I decided to go to the parking lot, and I noticed her car was still there.“Where can she go?” I asked no one in particular.I decided to look around, and I saw a butterfly brooch on the ground, then I picked it up, “this looks like hers,” I mumbled to myself, then I immediately remembered that she was wearing the exact one the same day.“Why is it here?” I asked myself, trying to figure out what might have happ
Giselle's POV.I left the lecture hall, and went back to my office with my lecturing materials. I sat in my chair and rested my head backwards. I thought of what to have for lunch, but I couldn't think of anything, and the lunchtime was wasted with having nothing to eat.I looked around my office, and remembered how Bryan scolded me because I starved myself, then I decided to find something to eat, but then I heard a knock on my door.“Come in,” I said, and a delivery man came in with a lunchbox.“What can I help you with?” I asked, looking confused.“I'm here to deliver this, ma'am, please sign here,” the delivery man said, and I signed the papers.“And can I know the source?” I asked.“I am not permitted to reveal such information ma'am,” he said, and left my office.I went to the food package, and checked the box, it was from the same , five star restaurant from the other day, and I checked the whole package, and I didn't find any card.I decided not to eat it at first, but I could
Giselle's POV.I wanted to run away, but a strong arm held me back, ‘it was a trap!’ I screamed in my head, but it was late already, and I tried to fight back, but the man was stronger.‘He is the man that had been stalking me since’ I said inwardly, but my body was already shivering in fear.The hallway was too dark that I can barely see his face, “let me go , you bastard,” I screamed, and kicked God knows where, and he was a little bit affected, and I tried to escape with that opportunity, but the stalker pulled my hair, and draw me backward.The fear of the dark, and being rough handled by an unknown man in that mysterious place, “help me,” I screamed for help, but the man pulled my hair harder.“What do you want from me?!” I exclaimed, trying the fight back.“You abandoned me!” The guy said, and I got confused, but I couldn't think of anything because I was scared, and the thing on my mind was to escape, and I bit the guy, he screamed, but he still didn't let me go.And I started
