Love Behind the Veiled Terror 39
Jose sat in his room. This room is directly opposite Valerie's room, his eyes are watching the whole room.Well, not bad for a professor's house. He was actually not used to living in an ordinary room like this, let alone in a house that belonged to an ordinary person. The room that Jose prepared was usually the best room in a five-star hotel.However, currently Jose is carrying out his duties. Well, people should be afraid of him. He is a very dangerous assassin, famous in the dark world as a killer who never fails.Actually, Jose never considered murdering to be his career. In the past, his life was hard because he was a child who came from an orphanage with the name Jose Alejandro, a name given to him by his orphanage's mother.They gave him the name because they did not even know who he was when he was found crying at the door of the orphanage, almost turning blue from the cold outside.As a teenager, Jose leaves the orphanage, fleeing to live independently, but then he is trapped

Once again there seemed to be a rush in the kitchen, causing Jose to frown. He has been living in this tiny house for almost two months and feels a strange feeling. It was as if he was in his own house and as if Valerie was supposed to be wherever she was.Jose always held back, although sometimes he looked at Valerie and felt his excitement suddenly rise. Sometimes he rushes to take cold showers to cool off his passion, smiles wryly and hopes this is just one of the effects of his celibacy for a long time without women.He had originally thought he would feel this passion for any woman who fit his criteria, but it did not. Many beautiful women are of course willing to satisfy his desires, but he only wants Valerie, he doesn't want anyone else.With calm steps and wearing a flat expression, Jose stepped into the kitchen.“What is this?”He saw Valerie was slicing a large slice of lemon sponge cake in a circle and placing it in a grid of boxes. In another box were rice, fried noodles,

Their relationship had changed since the kiss by the river. Valerie did not hold back her rapidly growing interest in Jose and vice versa. The man could no longer hold back from showing his affection for her.They always spent time together and enjoyed it a lot. Sometimes they just stay at home, do not go anywhere, sitting reading with a cup of hot coffee at the table. After a long time, Jose would pull Valerie into his arms and kiss her, then they would make out.However, apparently Jose is still holding back from doing anything more. Valerie is an inexperienced innocent woman and Jose can't afford to break that innocence just because he wants to vent his passion. He had thought about it for a long time. They had only met for a while, but their drive for passion and the bond between them was intense. It made him believe that Valerie was where he was anchored.Then one night, when Valerie came home she found the room so dark and dense, her forehead frowned.Did the lights go out? Howe

After a long journey, they landed at an international airport. They continued their journey to Tuscany, a region known for its vineyards and olive groves.Even though she was tired, Valerie really enjoyed the trip and felt a shame if she fell asleep. She loved the place, the scenery, the atmosphere and the beauty of the ancient cities and the endless peaceful sunflower fields in the countryside.Jose explained that they are now in the area between Florence and Siena, which also includes the wine region, Chianti, and also San Gimignano. The place where Jose himself has quite extensive vineyards there.They have to travel about eighty kilometers to the city of Lucca, a city that sits on a plateau with the Alps towering above it.During the next few hours, Valerie finally fell asleep and only woke up when Jose touched her shoulder gently. She was fast asleep on his lap.“We've arrived at my town,” murmured Jose hoarsely, looking at Valerie with deep and passionate eyes.She was blown awa

[Back to the present]Valerie opened her eyes and gasped and stared in confusion at the room around her. The strong smell of medicine and all over the whitewashed walls let her know where she was. There was an IV in her arm and when she felt her head, there was a bandage on it, a little painful to touch.Valerie's heart was churning rapidly and her tears were flowing profusely. She remembered everything; everything, from start to finish, from her first meeting with Jose to her breakup due to the accident.At that instant, Valerie suddenly remembered Jose's sad expression when she shot him. His expression was so hurt even though the man called her affectionately.Valerie cried out loud regretfully, realizing that she had shot her own husband, realizing that she might have killed the husband she loved so dearly.Jose Santiago is her husband, her soulmate who has been separated because of circumstances.***“You cannot stand yet, sir!” Don, who entered the room where Jose was being treat

Once home, Valerie immediately rushed into it, looking for her father. She found her father studying the papers on his desk.“Father!” Valerie exclaimed, making professor Benjamin raise his head and stare at Valerie in surprise. This is natural because Jose and Valerie did not inform her father of their arrival.“Valerie,” her father muttered, still stunned. The old man then turned to face Jose who was standing behind Valerie and put down their trunks. “Why are you here?”Valerie stared firmly at her father. “Jose has told me everything, Father!” her gaze was pitiful. “Why did not you tell me everything? Maybe we'll get over it together. Now, do not you ever think that I'll just want to leave you to face it all here by yourself. Father must come with me to Italy.”Professor Benjamin still looks confused, so Jose has to break the ice. “Get some rest, Val, it's late at night. Your father will definitely want to rest too, we'll talk about everything tomorrow, shall we?”Valerie looked li

When he arrived at the hospital, Jose found Valerie lying in a coma with wounds all over her body. The worst wound was on her head and Professor Benjamin died instantly in the accident.Jose grinned at Valerie's lying limp body, furious at the assassins sent by the organization. His mind was burning.How dare they touch his wife! They will soon find out that the Slayer is furious!After kissing Valerie's fingers, Jose consulted a doctor who stated that her condition was stable and that the woman would eventually wake up from her coma.Jose then calls Don and James to find information about the killer hired to eliminate Professor Benjamin. After obtaining sufficient information, he contacted the head of a government agency that specialized in foreign relations.Jose must solve everything, for Valerie's safety. The organization would not stop because they might suspect that Valerie found out about her father's research. Jose could have secured Valerie in Italy, but now, when her conditi

May watched all these scenes in silence as she stood guard outside the door of Valerie's hospital room. George even walked past her and walked away in a huff, unaware of her presence at the door.It made May's mind hurt. When there was Valerie, George did not even have time to glance at her.She turned to an agent who was her friend on guard. There is only one person to worry about. George could not give full guard to Valerie, because his boss did not give him the consent to continue to detain her, so the man only got permission to place two agents in front of her room.So of course this made it easier for her to free Valerie. The instructions from Don were clear, that once Valerie woke up, she should arrange for Valerie's escape.There was a surprise, of course, that she had not had the chance to report to Don and Mr. Jose who were now recovering, that Valerie's memory had returned. The woman has remembered everything. This meant that it made it easier for her to let Valerie go.Howe
