VENDETTA: Destructive Love

Chapter IV

CHAPTER IV

His heart started beating so fast he almost thought he was going to have a heart attack.

-"Ugh, it hurts" she moaned suddenly in pain and he took his hand away so fast as if it had touched fire.

-"Don't go...Stay...please..." She muttered unfocused on anything while trying to lift her hand to search for his.

His heart throbbed in pain, because he knows that in normal circumstances she would rather die than let him near her, let alone grab her hand.

He heard the ambulance and some police coming, so he looked at her as she was in pain and caressed her face.

-"You are going to be okay, they will take good care of you" he said and saw her smiling painfully as she puts her hand on top of his and he froze there.

-"Thank you" she whispered and her eyes closed as her hand went limp and fell down.

-"IS THE VICTIM OKAY" one of the paramedics that came running urging his other comrades to hurry asked.

-"If she would be okay why would we call for you?" He said coldly as he looked at him dead in the eyes and the paramedics took a step back from fear.

-"Sorry I-" the paramedics went on saying.

-"Just hurry and take care of her" he said coldly and they hurried to her, checking and doing their work and then took her inside the ambulance.

He watched them go as one of the police officers came to him.

-"You know the victim?" The police officer asked.

-"I was heading to work when I spotted the car" he said calmly.

-"Any suspicions?" The officer asked again.

-"I think that the lady slept for a bit, so she might have lost control and the car flipped, as you can see, it's still a bit dark since the sun didn't rise yet" he said calmly.

-"Interesting deductions, you are?" The police officer asked.

He stood there calmly and put his hand in his inside jacket pocket and grabbed a business card and handed it to him.

The police officer looked at it and then his eyes went wide.

-"Oh! Sorry, I thought-"

-"It's okay, you can call me if you need some answers or anything, just, if I may ask, do not tell her or anyone about my presence here, I have enough troubles to deal with on my own so..." he finished with a raised eyebrow and the officer nodded his head in understanding.

-"Sure! You can head to your work sir and thank you for taking care of the victim" the officer said respectfully.

-"It's my duty as a citizen, have a good day officer" he said with a small smile that had the police swooning.

He walked to the car where the driver was already waiting for him with the door open.

Once he reached the car and went to get in, he stopped and looked at the driver, he was a well kept man, with his serious look and handsome face, his black suit was ironed well and his appearance taken care of perfectly, so he patted his shoulder two times and the guy looked at him.

-"How old are you?" He asked.

-"Thirty five sir" the driver answered.

-"You did a good job today" he praised him and went inside the car.

The ride went quiet like everyday, and once they reached the company, he gave the driver the day off as a praise for his acts earlier.

He did his usual routine, but this time, escaping coffee, escaping newspapers and all, directly started his stalking mission about yesterday after lunch and early today.
