Semua Bab Too Late To Get Me Back, Husband : Bab 71 - Bab 80

RIAThe car finally slowed down.I lifted my head from my knees and listened carefully.The engine continued running for a few seconds before the car came to a complete stop.I held my breath.Where were we?I could hear voices outside, but I couldn't make out what they were saying.Then the driver's door opened.My heart began pounding again as I waited. The footsteps moved away from the car. I slowly pushed the trunk open and peeked outside.The man was standing a few feet away, his back turned toward me.I looked around and noticed we were no longer at the building. The place looked like a busy street, with several cars passing by and people walking along the roadside.This was my chance.I carefully climbed out of the trunk and crouched beside the car.The man suddenly turned around.Our eyes almost met, and I quickly ducked behind the car. My heart nearly jumped out of my chest.I waited several seconds before peeking out again.He was looking around suspiciously.I didn't wait a

RIAI didn't waste another second.The moment I had decided to find Gerald, I grabbed my phone and searched through the news reports from the day before.My eyes moved quickly across the screen until I found the report I was looking for.The attack on the bus.According to the news, several injured passengers had been taken to a nearby police station for questioning, while the more seriously injured victims had been transferred to different hospitals.Gerald's name had been mentioned.I immediately memorized the name of the police station and rushed out of the house.The nanny called after me, but I barely heard her.I didn't have time to explain anything.I needed to see my husband.The drive felt painfully slow.I kept checking the time on my phone, my fingers tightening around it every few seconds.Please be there.Please.When I finally arrived at the police station, I hurried inside.Several officers were moving around the building, some carrying files while others spoke quietly

LARA“I love you.”For a few seconds, I could only stare at him. The words were still ringing in my ears, and I couldn't understand how the man standing in front of me had gone from chasing my car in panic to crying in front of me. Bryan quickly looked away, wiping his face with the back of his hand as if he was embarrassed that I had seen him like this.“You don't have to reply now,” he said, his voice still unsteady. “I don't want you to say anything because you feel sorry for me. We have something more important to deal with right now.”I lowered my eyes to our intertwined hands. I still didn't know what to say to him. I had spent so much time believing our marriage was nothing more than an arrangement that hearing him say those words had left me completely confused.“We need to find Ria first,” he continued, and I slowly nodded.“I'll take you to Devil.”I immediately looked up at him. “Are you sure?”“No,” he admitted, giving me a tired smile. “But I promised you I'd help you fin

LARAI didn't know where we were going at first, but somehow, within a few hours, Bryan had managed to turn my random suggestion into something much bigger than I expected, and when I realized we were actually leaving the country, I stared at him in disbelief.“Wait… you're serious?”He glanced at me from the driver's seat.“About what?”“We're actually leaving the country?”He shrugged casually. “You said you wanted a date.”“I said a date, not a vacation.”“What's the difference?”I stared at him.“A date is going somewhere, eating something, maybe watching a movie, then going home.”He chuckled.“And who said we can't do all of that somewhere else?”I opened my mouth but couldn't find an answer.This man was unbelievable.I looked out of the window, trying to hide the smile that was slowly forming on my lips.For the first time in what felt like forever, I wasn't thinking about Ria, Gerald, Devil, or whatever problem was waiting for us when we returned.I was just… happy.By the ti

LARA“Because I’m already inside.”I read the words again, hoping they would somehow change. They didn’t.Bryan snatched the paper from my hand and looked toward the door. “Stay here.”“Bryan—”He raised a finger to his lips before moving toward the door. I followed him anyway.He slowly turned the handle. Nothing.He opened the door, and the hallway was empty. The lights were still on, bright and steady, but there wasn’t a single person in sight.Bryan stepped outside and looked in both directions. “Hello?” he called.No answer.He walked farther down the hallway while I remained near the doorway. “Bryan.”He turned. “Stay there.”I nodded.He checked the nearby doors, the staircase, even the elevator. Nothing.Whoever had left those messages was gone.Or worse, they were hiding somewhere we couldn’t see.Bryan returned and pulled out his phone. “I’m calling security.”Within minutes, two hotel security officers arrived. Bryan handed one of them the photographs and the messages.“Som
