Tristan Cabot :

"I have another case to look after" I say as I get a call from my office. I was more than exhausted and now I had another case.

I know I work under the crime investigation department but still everyone deserves rest isn't it?. While keeping all my thoughts aside I get inside the car to reach the crime scene.

As I was driving I get a notification on my phone from natasha. She just sent me the details of the victim. With my hand on the steering wheel and my other hand on the phone I open the document.

The case was of someone named "Miranda Vanderbilt" I say. "A twenty two year old girl who is the CEO of Vanderbilt Textiles" I was in shock while reading the document.

"So, daddy's spoilt rich girl must have done some shit" I say as I almost reached my destination.

When I enter the hospital natasha was already standing there waiting for me. As soon as she looks at me she comes to me and says "Hurry Tristan we need to talk to her about what happened to her??"

"What are you talking about??" I say to her in pure shock.
She kept looking at me confused and then she finally says "That girl Miranda nothing is going right with her, she needs our help." She finishes

"What happened" I ask her, finally realising the seriousness of the situation.

"Someone has been stalking her from the past few months now and last night we found her fainted in her car." She says and that's when my crime investigation department officer senses comes in place.

"Don't worry let's go talk to her we need to help her" I say.
And that's when we start rushing towards her ward .

"Natasha" I say

"What?" She replies looking at me.

"But who reported this, was someone with her?" I ask.

"We don't have must information about that all we got to know is that her driver was knocked out and the report was filled by her father Windsor Vanderbilt" She finishes.

By that time we almost reached her ward, and that's when I lost myself. There on the bed was sitting a beautiful girl, her long hair tied in a ponytail she was wearing a red dress and trust me on this that dress only looked that beautiful because she was wearing it.

I couldn't take my eyes off her beautiful face that didn't even had a single flaw. Those beautiful doe eyes that looked like it held the innocence of the world.

Those pretty lips that were curved into a little smile. Goshhhhh!!!! Is something wrong with me???. I thought.

Natasha was saying something but I couldn't hear it because all I could pay attention for now is her . That girl that is infront of me.

That's when I felt a slight pain on my arm and I look on my side to find Nat hitting me and that's when I came into my senses.

"Tristan... Tristan...hello???...can you even hear me" she said.

"Yes nat I can hear you" I reply.

"Meet Miranda Vanderbilt" she says.

And my eyes again fell on the girl infront of me.
"Miranda" I say, my voice soft and low.

"It's a pleasure meeting you Officer Tristan Cabot" Miranda says.

"No, the pleasure is all mine Miss.Vanderbilt" I say. Still I wasn't able to take my eyes off her.

"So, Miss.Vanderbilt tell us what happened?? What happened last night and why didn't you report to us earlier??" Nat says.

"Officer can you please tell me who filled this report on my behalf??" Miranda says.

"It's your father don't worry about it, it's just him" I reply

"Huh... seriously??" Miranda says. "From everyone in this world, it seriously had to be him??." She finishes.

"It would have been better if no one really reported it" she says her voice had a pain, it was something she was hiding from us it made me sad to look at her in pain.

"That doesn't matter Miss.Vanderbilt , All that matters is that you are safe. So please cooperate with us and tell us what happened" nat says.

"I don't want to tell anyone, I'm perfectly fine. I was just feeling a little dizzy that's why I fainted, there is nothing to know in that Officer so you may leave" she finishes.

"But....Miss Vanderbilt..." I try to say something but she cuts me off inbetween.

"Leave" that's all she says.

I signal nat to leave and while we were leaving the ward we meet her secretary....ross.

"Oh..she didn't say anything did she???" He says . "She is always cold and rude with everyone she won't entertain your investigation and specially when her father said you to" He finishes.

"That is none of your business sir" I say . "We know our work so it's better you keep your opinion to yourself." I finish."

We were leaving and I could feel his eyes on us like we were some sort of threat to Miss Vanderbilt and he just wanted us to stay away from her.

As we reached the reception, there was standing a man probably in his mid 40s dressed in a perfect black blazer. Anyone could tell from looking at him that he belonged to a wealthy family.

"That's Windsor Vanderbilt" Natasha say pointing at him.

"I'm sure something is wrong with this family, his daughter doesn't even wanna talk about his father and he came here leaving all his business in Italy??" She says.

"Let's follow him" I suggest.

Nat was just looking at me with wide eyes but I pulled her hand and went to the direction where Mr. Vanderbilt was going.

"He went to meet his daughter" Nat says.

We try to hear whatever they were talking about in the ward but we couldn't hear anything clearly. All we could understand was that both of them were arguing about something.

As soon as Mr.Vanderbilt comes out of the ward we quickly moved our feet back and that's when we meet him.

"Mr.Vanderbilt" I say . "It's a pleasure meeting you" I finish.

"I know about you officer Cabot" he says.

"You are a very brave and noble officer and I want to assign you a very important task" He finishes.

Till then Miranda was also discharged as she came out of the ward.

"What task Mr.Vanderbilt??" I say.

"I want to assign you as my daughter's personal bodyguard who would look after her and help her when in need. Someone who could stay close to her and understand her grief, as my daughter is not very expressive" He says.

And I was in utter shock that how could I be the bodyguard of Miss.Vanderbilt????.

"I...I.." I couldn't form any words .

"Just say yes, he is very stubborn he won't spare you until you say yes." Miss. Vanderbilt says glaring at her father.

"So what's your decision Mr.cabot??" He says, completely ignoring what Miss Vanderbilt said.

It felt like Miss.Vanderbilt was eagerly waiting for my decision like her life depended on this .

"Um...sure..I mean yes I would" I say.

"Thank you Mr.cabot now I feel a little better, from today I give my daughter's responsibility into your hands" he finishes.

And I could feel Miss.Vanderbilt glaring at me like I was someone who is just going to annoy her forever.

"Not at all a problem Mr.Vanderbilt" I say

By saying so Mr Vanderbilt leaves and that's when I realised I shouldn't have said YES in the first place because pretty girls also have a pretty lot problems.

Sooooooo, guyss how was this chapter???. I hope y'all liked it. And what will happen now??? Will Miranda hate Tristan???. Stay tuned for that

Lotss of loveeeeeeeee 🤍
