"Don't worry we will try our best." The nurse said and he started moving backwards looking at Camila finally leaving her there. His breath was caught in his chest and his hands started shivering as he lost her sight.
"Sir you don't look fine..can I help you." The ward boy who came out with him asked.
"No..I'm fine." He said gulping his fears.
"Shawn!!"
Zayn called but Shawn was not in his senses.
"Shawn!!!" He ran and grabbed him by his shoulder. "What happened Shawn? Why they took her to the operation theatre again?"
"She isn't alright." Shawn replied without meeting his gaze like he was swallowing thorns through his throat.
"Oh my God! Don't worry she'll be okay. Come with me." Zayn pulled him to the place where Gigi was already sitting. Shawn didn't know where he was present or what he was doing. He felt like his mind was blocked by something and his chest was heavy. He wanted to cry out loud but he was that typical man who thought, by crying he would show his weakness to the world which he didn't want.
"Shawn..." Gigi said softly taking seat beside him. "They gave me this while you were not there." She told lifting a paper envelope in her hand which made Shawn to snap his head upward. "Here's an accessory which belongs to Camila. They took it off while operating her." She told with one hand on her slightly swollen belly.
Shawn took the envelope from her without saying a word and opened it to reveal the beautiful engagement ring, he bought to propose her. Suddenly all the flashback from the moment before she got shot flashed in his mind and he couldn't hold back his tears anymore. Gigi looked at him with shock, she didn't see him crying like that before nor she ever expected him to do that in his worst possible scenario. "Thankyou!" He managed to say wiping his tears from the back of his sleeve.
"It's fine." She said and then put her hand on his thigh. "Shawn if your love for her is really that powerful, then believe me nothing is going to happen to her."
"She will be fine." He said with red eyes.
"She will." Gigi said rubbing his thigh before she left him alone with a ring in his hand which he was continuously staring at.

"He had this funding organization which helped poor girls to get higher studies in renowned universities. I also applied for the scholarship and got qualified for it. In the first year they kept it quite good. But in the second year I got to meet someone very close to Alejandro Galitzine."
"Can you name that person who was close to Alejandro?" Louis asked sitting at the opposite side of the table in the investigation room staring right at Hannah.
"Nicholas Galitzine..his son." She said sternly.
"Got it! Continue.."
"He told me that their organization want to send few of the deserving students to abroad on a study trip and I was one of them....ofcourse I got happy. They sent me to South Africa. When I was arriving back to Miami, I didn't know some men were following me. The cab I took to reach my home was also sent by them and I realised it when it stopped at the deserted place. The men who were behind me came and pulled out my suitcase. I was shocked and afraid but I managed to confront them. I asked them that why they taking my possession but they just stared at me and left me shouting there. After they gone, the taxi driver told me that they didn't take my any possession but my suitcase was safe in that place. I was so confused at that time." She sighed and then continued. "Then I came to realise that I wasn't sent there for a study trip. It was just a trap..a planned trap. They exchanged my suitcase with exact same suitcase when I used toilet at airport. That suitcase didn't carry clothes but....diamonds. The rare precious diamonds of millions of worth." She spilled. "Those men were there to take their own possession from me." She laughed.
"How did you get closer with Galitzine family then?"
"I had to.." She told. "I had no other choice. After that incident they started blackmailing me that I'm no more innocent Hannah but a criminal who is involved in smuggling and money laundering. If I opened my mouth or didn't take their orders they would send me to jail and then my career my everything would be destroyed. Who would hire a girl with a criminal record in their company. I came to know about other girls who were going through same but I didn't want to be one them. You know miserable and poor." She said with a confidence. "I choosed to be superior that's why I became one of their loyals. I worked in their casino as a waitress and learned gambling. As I showed them my skills, they sent me to various bars and casinos to gamble for them to turn their black money into legal. That's how I earned their trust and they found me perfect to get a job in FBI and work for them and I did."
"And then you started liking one of the agents." Louis said with an evil smirk.
"Yeah." She made a bitter face but then smiled to continue. "I met Shawn Mendes..cause I was assigned to work on a case with him. I found him hot..handsome and charming. He isn't like every other white boy...Is He?" She asked Louis knowing his jealousy from him. "Anyways you and me..we both know that he has every thing a girl wants..from looks to courage. I fell in love with him...madly."
"And what happened when you came to know that he fell in love with someone else?..madly." Louis said grinning to see the reaction on her face.
"I didn't wanna kill her but I had to..Shawn is mine..Only mine.. " She insisted.
"For your very kind information she isn't dead yet and your very yours Shawn came here to suffocate you to death..you should be grateful to me for saving your ass." He told her but she just scrunched her nose in disgust. "Anyways" He stood up. "Pray that Camila will stay alive or you know very well before any court decision Shawn will make your life miserable. He loves that girl more than himself. " He leaned to stare in her eyes."Your game will be over." He spat and ordered to take her back to cell.
.................................................
"Shawn drink this..you'll feel better. " Zayn said handing him coffee. "Please. " He insisted and Shawn took it but keep staring at it instead of taking a sip. "I sent Gigi back to home. She needed some rest." Zayn continued but Shawn's mind was stuck on Camila. He was barely breathing. "Oh operation is over I guess." Zayn said as he saw a nurse coming out of the operation theatre. Shawn quickly stood up and rushed towards her.
"How's she?" He asked stopping the nurse in her way.
"She's alright.." The nurse replied to which Shawn took a sigh of relief. "But." She added and his heart stopped beating for a moment."
"But What?"
