Sending Him to Her Rescue Chapter 8
Rafael froze, his weight still pinning me. Just as he turned to check, the police shouted through the door."Rafael Kingsley! You're under arrest for drugging and abduction. Come out now!"His face twisted into a scowl, and he hissed, "Son of a—"He lunged to escape, but the door splintered under a fierce kick by the police. The lead officer barreled in, slamming Rafael to the floor and pinning him there.It wasn't until I reached the hospital that I learned it was Caleb who had saved my life.Even though I'd turned him down, Caleb hadn't given up. He followed me home to make sure I was safe, and by chance, he caught Rafael drugging me.Without hesitation, Caleb called the police. They traced Rafael's purchase of sedatives and stormed his rented apartment just in time to stop the worst.In the hospital ward, Caleb's voice trembled with worry as he sat beside me. "Eleanor, I can't imagine how scared you must've been. I've already talked to Mr. Hudson and arranged for you to have

After that day, Rafael stopped appearing at the lab's entrance, and I began to think he'd finally given up on me.Even though Caleb brushed off his help that day like it was nothing, I insisted on treating him to dinner. Over the meal, I briefly mentioned my past with Rafael.When I finished, Caleb's expression visibly darkened. He muttered something about Rafael being a scumbag before his gaze shifted to me, filled with unspoken emotions.I wasn't blind to his interest, but I was too worn out, too afraid of getting hurt again.So, I made my intentions clear. "I'm not looking for anything romantic right now. I just want to focus on getting my work sorted first."I saw the flicker of disappointment in his eyes, but he didn't push. When he offered to walk me home, I turned him down. I didn't want to give him false hope, not when I knew I couldn't give him what he wanted.When I reached my apartment, Rafael was there, crouched by the door. He stood slowly, stepping closer with an

My heart felt strangely calm as I walked briskly ahead, acting like I hadn't seen Rafael and pushing through the crowd.Out of nowhere, Rafael pressed through the crowd, calling my name loudly. "Eleanor! Eleanor, it's me! Please, look at me!"The crowd turned to look, and with no other choice, I stopped. It had been six months since I last saw Rafael, and he looked far worse than before. He looked gaunt, and his cheeks were hollowed out."What do you want?" I asked, my patience running thin. I'd just gotten off work, too drained to deal with him.He seemed oblivious to my irritation as he grabbed my arm, eyes lighting up. "Eleanor, I finally found you. You have no idea how much I've missed you!"Afraid I might run, he tightened his grip. I tried to pull away, but his hand wouldn't let go.With no other choice, I kept my face blank and met his eyes. "I've made myself clear. Finding me changes nothing."He froze, then clutched my arm tighter."Please, Eleanor. Just hear me out, o

Voices scrambled through the line, wearing down my patience. Before I could hang up, Rafael's voice broke through, raw and desperate."Eleanor," he said, choking. "Avie's been in a car crash. She's at the hospital. They need me to sign for her surgery. I'll do it and come straight to you, I swear. Please, don't leave..."I glanced at the time and said, matter-of-factly, "You don't have to. I'm checking in soon. Averie needs you more, doesn't she?"Through the phone, his voice cracked, barely holding back tears. "No... I swear, I'll be quick this time! I only need to sign the papers, and I'll come straight to you. Don't get on the plane. Please, give me a chance. I'm begging you!"He always made promises, but he never kept his word.In my past life, I'd been stuck at a client's dinner, forced to drink more than I could handle. Scared, I called Rafael for help, and he acted the same way.He promised to pick me up, yet after waiting half an hour in a cramped bathroom stall, all that

A breathless hush fell.Then, the guests' chatter erupted, their voices rising to a fevered pitch."Where's the bride? She's gone?""Did she run off? Oh, this is going to be the talk of the town!"Rafael froze. His eyes went straight to the end of the altar where I should have been standing. However, I was nowhere in sight.His chest sank all at once, a wave of panic rising in its place. It felt like something important had already slipped away.Ignoring the officiant's attempts to stop him, he rushed toward the door, desperately searching for me—the one who had always been there."Eleanor, where are you? Come on, don't do this.""Eleanor, please! It's our wedding day. Everyone's here. You can't just disappear."He looked everywhere, calling out for me, but I was nowhere to be found.The guests' whispering and curious eyes fell on him, his suit suddenly feeling like a joke. And still, he kept asking the same question, "Where is Eleanor? Where had she gone?""Rafe, has someth

Rafael and Averie pulled their hands apart the second they saw me.Averie gave me a sweet, almost nervous smile before explaining, "Eleanor, please don't be mad. I didn't mean to wear your clothes. Mine got ruined yesterday, and I had nothing else to wear. Rafe told me I could just grab something from your closet."Rafael always marked special occasions with gifts—exclusive pieces, limited editions, things specially chosen because he knew I hated anything ordinary. Now, the things he swore were just for me were on someone else.Seeing that I didn't respond, Rafael's expression darkened. "It's just a dress. Why the attitude? You've got plenty of clothes. What's the big deal if Avie borrows a few?"I didn't react, just nodding before replying calmly, "Sure."His eyes narrowed, irritation flickering behind them. "Cut the act, Eleanor. Do you think acting like you don't care will make me come running?"I met his gaze, my voice calm but sharp. "Maybe I just don't care anymore. Has tha

Faint bruises in shades of purple and green marked Averie's bare shoulders, a quiet reminder of the night before.When she saw me, she lowered her head, a coy smile tugging at her lips as her lashes fluttered. "Eleanor, you're not mad about yesterday, are you?" she murmured."Rafe only stepped in to help me. It's my fault. I should've been more careful. I never should've let myself get drugged. Please don't hold it against me. I'd hate to think I messed things up for your wedding."As she spoke, her eyes glistened with unshed tears as if she were the victim of all of this.When Rafael heard her, he stormed in, his face clouded with anger.His eyes locked on me with a sharp glare. "Didn't I ask last night, Eleanor? You said it was fine. So what's this? Are you trying to make Avie cry now?"I stared at him, baffled. "She started crying on her own. How is that my fault?"At that, his frown deepened. "Then why is she upset? I already said I'm marrying you. What more do you want from

"Please… Call my boyfriend… Please..."Averie Lancaster lay crumpled outside the bar, her cheeks flushed. Her voice was barely a whisper, teetering on the edge of consciousness. Her words were simple, yet they sent a chill down my spine. At that moment, I realized I'd come back to life. Without a second glance, I turned from her outstretched hand and hurried away from the bar. In my past life, a single moment of sympathy had cost me everything. I wouldn't make that mistake again—not this time.I'd barely taken a few steps when Averie lurched to her feet and reached for me. Caught off guard, I lost my balance and hit the ground hard.A sharp jolt of pain tore through me, knocking the breath from my lungs. I didn't even notice her phone ringing until Rafael's voice came through, sharp and frantic."Avie, why aren't you answering? Do you have any idea how worried I've been?"Her voice turned sweet and soft, barely above a whisper, as she said, "Rafe… I don't feel good. Someone dr
