Chapter-28

Author's POV

Sten begged Chase to show some mercy on him. But Chase didn't budge. Neither Sten's begging nor Rose' crying stopped him.

" Okay..my love...I used to be a guest professor at Hunter's University. I'll tell you... those kids loved my classes!" Chase sounded casual, he looked proud.

Rose watched him in utter disbelief.

He moved the scalpel upwards and stopped right at his chest.

Sten was shaking his head violently. Chase clicked his tongue in distaste.

" Don't shake Sten! I'll rip your tongue out...if my darling love gets distracted!" Chase warned, knitting his brows.

Rose felt like she was thrown from a tall building. She couldn't breathe at all.

" Now listen to me very carefully  love..." Chase paused looking at Rose. " This....right here!" he pointed towards the sternum bone, right at the chest.

Sten was sweating blood. Chase raised the scalpel and pointed towards his chest. He was about to draw a cut on his chest but...

" Please Chase.... please...I beg you stop it.. listen to me..please" Rose cried, wiggling violently.

Chase stopped.

The sight was painful to watch. She was crying like a small kid. He rushed towards Rose and kneeled in front of her.

She was looking down.

Everyone watched him in pure shock. He lifted her face and looked into her eyes.

He wiped her tears using his thumb and cupped her cheeks.

" Don't cry...." he wiped the tears again.

Tears weren't stopping. She gulped the lump forming in her throat.

" Now, let's talk decently. Hmm?"  Chase spoke gently, cupping her cheeks again.

She nodded. She had to.

She didn't want to see an original heart!

Definitely didn't want it as a gift!!!!

"  Are you a SPY? "  Chase asked, tracing his fingers on her cheeks.

She shook her head in a no.

" No...." it was a low whisper.

Chase clicked his tongue in distaste.

" Truth baby...no lies baby girl!" Chase sighed.

She shook her head again.

" I'm not lying Chase...I'm not a spy!! Please trust me!" She cried again.

Chase felt really sad. But he pushed aside those feelings and continued with the interrogation.

" Okay baby....why are you not active on social media?"

"No pictures of yours even in your friend's account."

"Zero information about you online...Why...Rose?"

"Why is it??"

" You avoid getting clicked!"

" You didn't want your pics to be published in any media? Why?"
