STALKING THE BILLIONAIRE DEVIL のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 41 - チャプター 50

[HOSPITAL]Blake lay on the bed, unconsciously. His monitor beeped faintly. Drip and wires were connected to his hand and stomach. He just had surgery and a blood transfusion. His breathing was faint. An oxygen mask was worn on him to support his breathing. His ward was filled with lots of fan gifts and letters. They were all praying and wishing for his safe recovery. Audrey hadn't returned from the police station, and Skye stepped out not long ago. Heavily built guards stayed in the hospital to keep the crazy fans out of the ward.The door creaked open, and a lady dressed as a doctor walked in. She carefully closed the door but did not bolt it.She turned to look at Blake, tears sliding down her cheeks. Slowly, she took off the nose mask she was wearing, revealing her face.Joanna.She took slow steps towards Blake. She sat in the available chair next to him. She raised her trembling hand and touched his forehead before taking his hand into hers."I'm sorry," she mumbled. "So very s

"Blake," Ixora muttered as she ran and wrapped her hand tightly around his waist."Ouch," Blake winced.Ixora loosened her grip. "Sorry." She sniffled on his chest."I...didn't mean for any of this to happen. I'm so sorry for putting you in this condition," she mumbled."It's okay. I know you can never hurt me on purpose." He rubbed her hair softly.Nelly had a smile on her face as she watched while Audrey wouldn't stop rolling her eyes at every second she got.Skye arrived at the station."Does it hurt?" she mumbled, trying to locate the injury."Not that much.""Love," Georgia called.Ixora broke the hug and hugged her mother."Mom, I'm fine," she muttered."You have to. You are my daughter after all," Georgia said, pulling her out of the hug and showering kisses on her face.Ixora giggled softly."If you are all done, Blake, you have to sign here," Williams said and opened the documents.Blake walked near the table to sign it."Xora, why would you even think of stabbing Blake? I th

[NELLY 'S HOUSE]Nelly twisted the doorknob. The door creaked open. She walked in completely, but staggered on seeing someone sitting on her couch.His gaze was on her. She gulped before going in fully. It was the same guy who splashed muddy water, and instead of apologizing to her, he blew cigarette smoke all over her face and drove off. He was also the same guy who was at the hideout, and now he was here. What was he doing here?"W... What are you doing here?" she stuttered, dropping the grocery bag on the table.Maddox's gaze was still fixed on her. Some strands of hair fell on his face, and that made him insanely hot. She traced her eyes to his hand and saw him twirling his phone."T... This isn't a bar where you can just walk in anytime you like," she said, her voice going lower at each word.He didn't say a word, just stared. She lowered her gaze to the ground and began playing with the hem of her shirt. He was making her uncomfortable. Why was he staring at her like that? Did

[GEORGIA'S HOUSE]"I've tried calling her, but her phone is not reachable," Blake said, trying to phone Ixora again.Georgia paced around with a worried look on her face. They had been trying to reach Ixora for the past two hours. They were aware that she was going to the grocery store. It had taken longer than usual."And Nelly, is she at her house?" Georgia asked, rushing to Blake.Blake shook his head. "Nelly is on her way here. She hasn't seen her."Georgia sighed, looking at the door. Her mind was not at ease, and it wasn't because Ixora hadn't returned home. It was because of Drexton. What if he had come back for revenge and decided to target Ixora?"No," she muttered, shaking off the thoughts.The police walked in."I need your search team to look for my daughter," Georgia said in her usual authoritative tone.The inspector got his pen and paper. "When was the last time you got in contact with her?""Two hours ago."The cops exchanged glances between themselves."She might b

[BLAKE'S HOUSE]Blake was sitting on the couch, his eyes closed. He was holding Ixora's hairpin, picking himself with the sharp edge.Only one thought clouded his head: Ixora's lies.He knew she was lying when she said a random stranger helped her.It wasn't a random person, but her boss... Drexton.He had come to figure out who had the scent the day he punched him at his company. He had no idea why Ixora would lie to him.She didn't like him, yet why was he feeling insecure?He had known Ixora long before Drexton came into the picture. Trying to ignore the reality seemed impossible.He was glad Drexton had saved Ixora from the bastard that had tried to rape her, but what were they doing out all night?Why did she lie to them?"Ouch," he winced, opening his eyes.The hairpin gave him a slight cut.He stared at his blood that was smeared on the hairpin.The door pushed open, and Audrey walked in.She got closer and saw Blake's hand."What have you done to yourself?" she said, rushing to
