CHAPTER FOURTY THREE

Gabby couldn’t breathe no matter how ha-rd she tried but to avail as she felt surfocated.

She held onto her ne-ck ti-ghtly as she tried to exhale but it only got worst. She remembered her doctor told her even the smallest doze of strawberry could kill her.

Was she dying?

“Ma’am we have a problem.” She heard one of the goons whispered into her kidnapper’s ear whose face paled instantly.

Gabby’s vision became blurry as the gunshots and screams seem to fade as she slowly closed her eyes unable to bear it anymore she blacked out.

The last thing she remembered was being carried out by someone.

*

Gabby’s eyes flushed opened immediately and looked at the unfamiliar ceiling.

She just had the weirdest dream ever.

“You’re awake.” She heard that familiar hoarse voice and she tried moving only to fall back in pain.

“Argh! sh*t!” She cursed out in pain Xavier immediately refrained her from moving as she please.

“Don’t move to avoid getting your stitches opening up again.” He said softly and Gabby began to remember the event that placed her In this condition.

“So it wasn’t a dream?” Who was she kidding she almost died in the hands of a lunatic.

She quietly engulfed him Ina ti-ght hu-g only to Gr0-n again.

“Stop moving okay?” He Coux her and Gabby felt her eyes become teary.

For a moment she was scared she would die for he would get to her.

“Hm. But I want to hu-g you.” She mumbled amidst pain.

He smiled softly and stro-ke her hair gently.

“You nee-d to rest more and get well soon so you can hu-g me as much as you want.” He said and Gabrielle once again shook her resolve.

“What about her?” She asked about Michelle.

“Don’t worry about that and just focus on getting better okay? I’ll be right back.” He planted a ki-ss on her forehead and wanted walking around but she held onto his hand instinctively.

“I’m just going call the doctor.” He gave a as-suring smile and she let go.

That event made her realize how badly she has seen lying to herself and also not treasuring what she’d.

She didn’t wanna loose him, the fear of loosing him made her wanna stick to him like glue forever.

He walked outta the ward and came back shortly with the doctor whom she remembered as Frank.

“Hello ma’am how are you feeling today?” Frank asked with a smile and Gabby returned his smile.

“I feel like sh*t.” She said honestly.

Her entire body feels like she’d gone throu-gha transmigration process.

“She was stabbed on her shoulder and thigh but fortunately it wasn’t really de-ep so she’s gonna be fine. If you’d arrived a minute late she would have died.” Frank explained the situation to Xavier who listens with a cold expression.

“Hm.” Xavier nodded without saying a word.

Had he been a minute late?

“I’ll have the nurse give her painkillers later. Meanwhile you should never go anywhere near strawberries it could kill you..” Frank further said.

“Okay got it.”

“That would be all then.” He said and excused himself.

“Are you hungry? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?” Xavier bombard her with questions earning a chuckle from her.

“Let’s just stay together for awhile okay?” She stretched forth her hand and he took it.

He seem like he has not slept for a while.

“Come with me, there’s enough space for two of us.” She patted the space beside her.

“But your injury-”

“Don’t worry I know you’re gonna be careful.” She smiled sweetly and he had no option but to get in bed with her.

Gabby rested her head on his shoulder while secretly inhaling his scent.

“You look terrible.” She mumbled and he heaved a sigh.

“You got me worried to death Gabby.” How could he tell her he almost went crazy and killed every single one of them Saving Michelle for Last.

He was gonna give her the more gruesome death ever.

Xavier lost every single bit of self me left in him and killed every single person present in the warehouse.

It was a blood bath in there.

“I’m sorry…”

CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR

“You shouldn’t be.” He whispered and held her close but careful not to reopen her wounds.

“No I was being stubborn and I should have listened to you and not go out.” She mumbled softly earning a sigh from him.

“I can’t hold you Indoors forever.” He smiled and planted ki-sses on her face.

Gabby felt that strange and she couldn’t help but be emotional.

He claimed to be a cold blooded billionaire but here he was treating her with care.

He claimed to be using her for revenge but that wasn’t the case.

He has never maltreated her for once. He cared for her like he knew me for ages.

I couldn’t un-derstand why he could still care for the daughter of his enemy, she didn’t un-derstand what was going on in his head.

“Sleep okay?” She said and called her eyes.

A silent tear rolled down her cheeks.

“Hm.” He closed his eyes also while cuddling her.

Once she’d fallen asleep he let go of her and gotta the bed.

“I’ll be right back love.” He muttered un-der his breath and placed a ki-ss on her forehead before walking away.

He was gonna make every single person involved pay for laying their filthy hands on his wife.

He found George by the car and got in without a word.

“Still refusing to talk?” He asked and George shook his head.

“She insisted on see you.” Michelle was kept at a prison in the un-derworld where she would be tortured slowly but still made sure she was alive.

If she pas-sed out from too much pain they would wake her up and continued with the torture.

Killing her immediately would be granting her a respectful death and Xavier don’t plan on killing her easily.

He was gonna break her mentally, emotionally and physically.. she would begged to be killed when she can’t take it anymore.

The pulled up at the usual sp-ot and someone came out to welcome the boss.

“Boss! You came!” A guy in his late 20’s spoke excitedly as he walked hand in hand with his boss.

“Hm I came…did you treat our guest well?” Xavier asked with a smile plastered on his face.

Chad was known to be a pyschopath, he loved inflicting pain on his prison and Xavier is sure Michelle would definitely be given a welcome party.

“Ofcourse I gave a special treatment I’m sure you’re gonna love it.” He happily announced and Xavier gave him a small nod.

After going throu-ghso many turns they finally arrived at her cell and the dreadful smell of blood could make anyone puke.

Xavier walked in and found her chained to the chair as her face have been damaged by hot water.

It was a horrible sight to behold.

She looked like a zombie as she looked like she was gonna die.

“Pump some adrenaline into her body and start the special treatment.” He commanded and took a seat opposite her.

Michelle was for-ced to wake up and she looked at Xavier in horror.

“Lord Xavier please I’m sorry please let me go!” She screamed in pain for she knew her face had been ruined for life.

Two fingers from her toe have been cut off and she looked pathetic.

“You know I would have turned a blind eye when you tried to create problems for me but you just had to touch my wife… Wrong move dear.” Xavier smiled mischievously and looked at Chad who was waiting for his orders.

“Please I beg of you! Please I promise to disappear forever please just let me go.” She cried helplessly as regret washed throu-ghher.

She should have listened to Drako and let her be.

“Remove two of her fingers.” Xavier commanded and Chad happily picked up his tool and walked towards Michelle who shook her head in fear.

“No! Please don’t come any closer!” She screamed out loud even though she knew no one would hear her no matter how ha-rd she tried.

Chad held onto her wrist ready to cut of her fingers when she gave up and decided to tell the truth.

She was gonna die anyway so what’s there to hide.

“I’ll talk! Please don’t!… It’s Drako! He Made me do it!” She yelled and Chad stopped.
