บททั้งหมดของ The Abduction of Celestine Oakmont: บทที่ 71 - บทที่ 80

Celestine could clearly hear the loud beating of her heart as she was pointing the gun at the man who introduced himself as Nicholas.She's scared for her life and also for the life of the man in front of her. He might be telling the truth but it was hard for her to believe him. There's a part of her that is telling her to drop the gun but the fear in her heart is much louder than the little voice that is convincing her to believe Nicholas."I understand that you're hesitant to believe me because of what happened but trust me, I won't do anything to hurt you," he said calmly, trying to convince her.She bit her lower lip and harshly wiped the tears on her cheek. "No, I want to see Vincent. I don't want to trust anyone.""I don't know if he'll come here.""Call him, please," she said, almost begging.Nicholas tried searching for his phone in both of his pockets but he couldn't find it. Celestine sniffed and wait for Nicholas. He subtly glance

  "Drop your fucking rifle." "B-Boss..."  Vincent pressed the tip of his gun against Carter's forehead even more.  "I know you have the intention of killing Celestine. And I'm not stupid to not know your connection to my father."  Carter swallowed and slowly let go of the rifle he's holding. He was lying in his stomach with hands on his nape. It is not in Vincent's vocabulary to bluff someone and Carter w

Alice puts a mug of hot chocolate on Sebastian's desk while her brother is busy reading a newspaper. His feet were resting on the table while his back was leaning on the swivel chair."Here's your hot chocolate brother," she said before jumping onto Sebastian's bed.Sebastian reached for the mug and carefully take a sip on it. He's wearing his eyeglasses that were not very usual for him to do unless he's reading something important."So I won't get a thank you for making my brother a hot chocolate?" Alice said while sipping her coffee.He raised his mug. "Thanks, Alice.""You're very much welcome, Basty," she sarcastically said while rolling her eyes.It's been days and finally, she got fully healed and she no longer have to use her wheelchair. It was tiring to move just by using both of her arms and she's grateful that finally, she wouldn't be dependent on her wheelchair anymore and can move on her own."What are you reading?" she as

"Fuck it," Vincent murmured.When Celestine left, he did nothing but curse himself. It was his plan, to hurt her yet now that he has already done it, guilt is eating him up.Celestine and he aren't supposed to be together. They shouldn't cross the boundary that fate has built for them because Celestine was the forbidden apple that he shouldn't taste, yet he did. It was a sin for Celestine and him to be happy in each other's arms. It was a sin for them to be together.He had sin once and even though he's evil, he couldn't afford to be a sinner again for an angel like her. However, something feels heavy in his chest. It was suffocating him, he was lost for words to explain what he's feeling but when the corner of his eyes started to get warm, he had only one word to describe what he felt and its; pain.It was not Celestine's slap that hurt him but her teary eyes that were directly looking to his eyes when she uttered the words, 'I hate you.' with certainty

"Did you already eat breakfast?" Lander asked as his eyes were busy on the road. Since they got inside the car, none of them speak. Lander remained silent because he's trying his best not to ask personal questions to Celestine that she most probably would be uncomfortable answering.He lied. He's not on his way to his favorite pancake house nearby, he drove all the way here with the hopes of seeing Celestine. Last night, Vincent sent a text message to him saying that Celestine is already with him and he wouldn't have to worry anymore. Vincent not only texted an update but he also texted the hotel's name that they're in which give him the freedom to see Celestine in the morning.Everything that he said to Celestine a while ago wasn't true except for the fact that he gave the little girl chocolate in exchange for calling Celestine. It's not true that he was driving when he saw Celestine in the playground because the truth was he had been following Celestine since he saw
