My Turkish Heart

Chapter 59: Will the decoy work?

Kyle was arranging with his housekeeper how he wanted Izzy's room to be decorated when he got a call.

"Dr Fletcher.." Burak's deep voice could be heard.

"How many numbers do you have ? Jeez!" Kyle teased.

"My family is tracking everything, so for now I can only be extra cautious"

"I'm just joking, I understand.. What can I do for you?"

"I wanted to check in regarding Izzy.. "

"Ahh... And here I thought that you were calling to hear my voice" Kyle chuckled.

"You're in a good mood to joke around.."

"Ok, ok!... On a serious note, I have asked Izzy to move in with me. She has not given me an answer yet, but she would give me one today. I have sent some people to keep an eye on her older sister, but she hasn't returned home yet..."

"Wait, wait! You asked Izzy to move in with you?! Is that really necessary?" Burak's jealously spiked.

"How else can I protect her? You should know her by now, she won't even tell anyone if danger comes to her doorstep. So, unless you want me to illegally install cameras in their home or a bodyguard, which we both know she won't agree to..."

"Offff! I don't like the idea of you staying together, but for now I will have to trust you. Just don't get any funny ideas ok?!" Burak warned him.

"Hey! Firstly, I would have protected Izzy without you even asking because I care about her. Secondly, your scandal is somehow blowing up in the media here. I had someone check it out, seems like someone is purposely pushing it,but can't find out who"

As much as Burak's jealously was trying to make Kyle seem like a bad guy, he knew that out of this whole  mess he was one of the good ones. In this situation, he had no other choice, but to trust him and also give him the benefit of the doubt. Also, after Yildez Bey had checked out everything about Kyle's background, Burak felt a bit at ease knowing he had the power to protect her.

"I'll ask Yildez Bey to check it out too , thanks! There are a few people I can think of that want this kind of revenge on me. Also, I know the investment we made in SA was not that impactful that it needed to be splurged in the media. So someone definitely was trying to spread this fake engagement nonsense for their own personal benefit"

"Yeah, I thought so too. I have to go now, Izzy is calling me" Kyle said.

Hearing his words, sent a sharp pain to Burak's heart, it was jealously mixed with heartache. How he longed to hear from Izzy, to explain to her what is really going on, to tell her how much he loves her and is doing this to protect her. Unfortunately, none of those words could be said to Izzy at this moment, as Burak couldn't guarantee how long it would take to fix things. With a heavy heart he ended the call with Kyle and tried to get back to work.

"Hey Izzy, glad you called"

"You are?"

"Yes! But why do you sound so under the weather or something?"

Kyle asked hearing a sadness in her tone, he figured she might have seen the news by now.

"No, no..it's nothing.. just a congested nose.." Izzy lied.

He thought he shouldn't push her any further and just continue pretending that he knew nothing.

"Hmm.. I'll pick you up some medication later. Have you made your decision yet?"

There was a brief pause and Kyle looked at his phone to see if the call was still ongoing. Izzy took a deep breath and agreed to move in with Kyle. She felt hesitant even though she had already made up her mind before she called. A moment of craziness pushed her to agree, knowing that it might be for the best that she lives there for the time being. After Daisy finding out about the Burak issue, she wanted to leave even sooner to avoid the looks of sympathy from her sister.
