His Hidden Heart のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

Hayden-“Calm down, everything will work out.” Tristan took me back to the apartment and sat with me on the couch while I bawled like a baby.“What if it doesn’t? Even if he isn’t found guilty, I have a bad feeling about him being in jail. It has been hours, and we still haven’t heard anything.” I sniffled a few times.Tristan handed me a Kleenex, and I wiped my tears before blowing my nose. It took us almost thirty minutes to get away from the reporters. They were still downstairs, wanting to talk to me. If it weren’t for Tristan having the ability to command the people who worked for Dominic, I don’t know what I would have done.“I have sent Lawyer Quinn to investigate what is going on. As soon as she learns something, she will inform us.”“Doesn’t she just work for Fox Ink? How can she get involved with a criminal case?” I tossed the used tissue away and accepted another from Tristan.“Lawyer Quinn is Dominic’s personal lawyer. She does more than handle legalities at the office. He

Hayden-A week passed, and Dominic still hasn’t returned home. No one has heard anything from Lawyer Quinn. Tristan and I went to the police station, but it was shut down. Lexus was becoming more obnoxious with each passing day.At least, that is what I heard, as I have managed to avoid him and Devon so far. I spend all of my time in Tristan’s office, and when something needs to be done outside of the office, Lily handles it for me. Instead of being upset that Dominic was missing, I let Tristan handle tracking him down while I focused on my novel.The book and cover have been officially approved. I was a little surprised because Lexus and Devon had the final say. I considered using a pen name, but in the end, I went with using my real name. I wish Dominic had been with me while I completed a significant milestone in my life.I didn’t let it get to me, however. Instead of being depressed about it, I thought of it as a surprise for him when we found him. I just hoped it was soon. A week

Dominic-After three days of getting Hayden up to speed, I could finally relax. Well, as much as I could with everything else happening around us. At least now I wasn’t entirely in over my head, and I now had someone helping me take Lexus down. Not just him, but every crime family still in play.“Are you sure we should trust them to help?” Hayden asked as she curled up next to me on the couch.Ever since I returned home, this was the first time we had had a chance to be alone. Agent Leo had stayed the last three days to get Hayden up to speed. Wrapping my arm around Hayden, I propped my feet on the coffee table and held her close.“There is always a risk, but it might be the only way to take care of Lexus.”“I am just glad you are okay.” Hayden rested her head on my chest and nuzzled her head under my chin.“I admit that working with the FBI was the last thing I wanted to do, but if it weren’t for them, I would have likely been killed by the police.”“What do we do now?” Hayden lifted

Hayden-“What is next?” Devon asked Lexus after they bid the reporters goodbye.“Now we ruin the relationship between them.” Lexus said.Peeking between two leaves, I saw Lexus standing with his arms crossed over his chest and a smug smile on his face. He unwrapped his arms a moment later and pulled something out of his shirt pocket. It looked like a small plastic bag with white powder inside. I didn’t know what it was but knew it couldn’t be good.“Find a way to get this into his drink today.” Lexus handed Devon the bag.“What is it?” Devon took the bag and examined it.“Let’s just say this will make him unable to resist you. After the deed is done, get evidence and find a way to show Hayden. After she learns that her lover has multiple lovers, she will likely move out of Dominic’s place. Once she no longer has Dominic’s protection, I can proceed with the next plan.”“Don’t worry, I will get this done.” Devon smiled as she put the powder in her pocket and clicked the elevator button.

Dominic-After torturing Devon for three hours, she passed out. I had to admit it took longer for her to lose consciousness than it did for most grown men. If it weren’t for Hayden being out in the car, I would continue to make Devon regret it.“What now?” Tristan asked when he handed me a handkerchief to clean my hands.“Get rid of her and clean up the evidence.” I tossed the bloodied cloth on the ground and walked away.I hoped Hayden wasn’t upset with me for taking too long. I would have had the others handle Devon for me, but I wanted to be the one to personally send her to hell. Seeing a sink on my way toward the stairs, I stopped at it to wash as much blood off me as I could.I didn’t want to scare Hayden, as she had never seen this side of me. Very rarely did I let myself lose control as I had, but I would gladly make the world burn to keep Hayden safe. Once I finished cleaning myself up, I went out to the car.Hayden was asleep in the passenger seat, holding a bag on her lap.
