Chapter 25

Deadly Annalise

"I won't force you to reciprocate what I feel. But don't avoid me…don't distance yourself from me. Do you know how suffocating is that? You're smothering me, Annalise." Gabe said.

It was his last words in his room after that night. She knew she'd fallen. Even though she tried hard to deny and stop it, it was too strong to defeat. She wants more of him even if it is wrong. Her conscience was troubling her. She felt like she was betraying her own clan as well. All those words from Gabe never silents her mind. In the morning, afternoon, and in the evening. She remembers everything.

"Gabe?" She called when she came inside her room and Gabe was inside, standing in front of the mannequin of her gown for Amber's birthday.

"Hey," he said and gave her that huge smile. How can that smile soften her?

"What are you doing here? The makeup artist will go here in a minute," she said as she checked the time on her wrist watch.

"I just came to check your gown," he said an

    Chapter 26Behind itThere's a rainbow after the rain. The sunshine appears the next day. After the incident that happened, Amber Leondale, Gabe Clyborne, Gavin Clyborne, and Estevan Clyborne were brought to the hospital along with Leo, Annalise and David. Their parents were safe as they were outside when the incident happened. Among them, it was Annalise and Amber who were affected the most from the said incident. Amber Leondale broke her arm and gained a lot of wounds. Annalise injured her feet. Can you believe it? She managed to kill all those men and save the three Clyborne from the death with all the wounds and with her injured feet. Up until now, Annalise brought them in awe. Her eyes were blank and cold. She stood so firm as if she wasn't injured at all. She held the guns and killed the men in just a blink of an eye. Annalise was so far but those three men were shot on their foreheads—bullseye. She acted like she was good at it. As if she had done it before. "Annalise what?"

    Chapter 27 HomeAnnalise was stunned. She was only staring at the ceiling of her hospital room. Gabriel Clyborne just admitted it to her. It was her own clan who was behind it. Now, she turned off her phone to refrain them from reaching her and locating her. She couldn't process it in her head. Annalise was in awe. She has been crumpling her hands for a few minutes after ending the call. Why would they do that if they knew that she was there? Do they want her to die with them as well? They began this plan together. But they made another move without even informing her. It was upsetting. She didn't have to hear their explanation. Confirming that it was them behind it was enough. "Annalise!" Estevan exclaimed like an excited kid when he showed up in the room again."What the hell?" She mumbled when her eyes shifted down at the wheelchair in front of her. It was the wheelchair that he bought for her. "Did I just predict that you will need a wheelchair?" He asked arrogantly and pushed

"Yeah," she said and smiled the smallest. She was eager to leave and go back home to their house. It's their mess, she must clean everything by herself. Until now, what they did upsets her. She couldn't accept the fact that they risk her life for that d*mn plan of them. What were they thinking? Why would they do it without telling her? They should have not just sent her in the cave of their enemy if they will just treat her like a wind."How can you go home right away? You're injured," he said worriedly. "I'm fine, Leo. It doesn't hurt much," she said and smiled."Annalise," the door opened and Estevan Clyborne entered the room. He was smiling from ear to ear that it could almost rip his lips. What is it this time? Is he planning something again?"That smile scares me now," she said and shook her

She left yesterday and until now, she hasn't called. Gabe was hesitating to call her either. "How am I supposed to focus and do my job?" He mumbled while David was near him.Well, since Annalise is on leave, David is here as Gabe's bodyguard. He just realized that it was kinda boring to just stay there and wait for them to finish their job. How can Annalise bear it each day? "Just ignore him. He's losing it," David said and chuckled unbelievably. It was obvious that he's losing his mind. He was probably thinking whether to go and see Annalise or to call her now. But then, the only thing he can do is to call her. Annalise won't like it if he follows her there. "I wonder if he even slept last night. He was probably thinking of Annalise the whole night," Leo mentioned and breathed out in distr

Why does he have to keep uttering words that she should not hear when he's drunk? I love you.That's exactly what he said last night. Do you know what she did right after Gabe told her that? She left them all there and came back home by herself. Now, she's stuck in her room, thinking of everything. Does he know how much he bothers her with those words?

They still have a chance to eat."Yeah," he simply said. It annoys Annalise even more. She just has to hide it. "I mean, you have a lot of investors. The company doesn't even need her. Besides, when you get married in the future you will inherit all the businesses of your parents. You don't need her," Leo discussed. He was also against her. If he will allow her to invest, it only means that she will have the chance to leech around him and seduce him all the time. Annalise kept her silence, pretending that it was nothing for her when she was already crushing that woman in her mind. "Well, she knows her place now. Let's let her roam around," Gabe said before her eyes landed to Annalise who was not looking at them. "You can walk properly now?" David asked."A bit," she replied. "That's good," he

Larisa smiled the softest as his mother praised her. "Are you nervous?" She asked. Well, she could tell it by her face. "I am," she replied. Her heart was drumming heavily. It feels like she's a student who was being asked by her own teacher about a certain topic in the class. Her hands were cold. How is she gonna walk on the aisle? What should she do inside once she sets foot? She was indeed agitated and overthinking about many things. "You know what, every bride feels like that. But you know what you should just think of once you enter the church?" She asked with a lovely smile. "Remember how you met him. Remember how your story began. Remember all those happy memories that you've spent with him and remember how the two of you overcame all the problems that you encountered along the way," his mother look

She got justice in her own hands for her family and for Noah. All of a sudden, she just felt feeble as if she was able to release all the rage. "Larisa!" It was David. The moment he sat foot inside the abandoned place, he saw the different blood of the Valestine around. And there was Lucinda Valestine in front of Larisa, lifeless. The gun from his hand fell from his grip. He quickly ran towards Larisa who was bent in her knees. "Are you okay?" He asked. She didn't speak. Only a tiny smirk drew on her lips. "I killed them," she uttered. "But even if I do, I cannot still see my parents…my family that they killed," she mentioned with bitterness and pain. "David," Gabe called. "Leo," he simply said. He quickly stood up and ran towards them a bit far from Larisa. "Hey, you okay?" David asked Leo. "I am," he utte

Larisa kept walking repeatedly while trying to ponder a lot. Estevan was talking with the IT men. While Gabe and Gavin were talking about where they could possibly bring his parents. "There's nothing in the car. They didn't leave anything that we can use to track them," Estevan said as he took a heavy breath. "B*llsh*t," Gabe cursed, was near to hit the wall with his fist. "Where could they possibly bring them?" Larisa mumbled to herself while walking endlessly, thinking of all the places that the Valestine used to do their transactions. "Can you stop? You look like Gabe when he's anxious," Gavin commented, annoyed by her. "Shut up. I'm trying to remember all the places that the Valestine used to use," she replied and continued walking there as if that was helping her to figure it out. "They are putting an end to this," Ambe

"What should I do? I only know how to bake. Would you be fine eating sweets everyday when we get married?" They both laughed with that thought. "I can cook, you don't have to worry." He said while shaking his head. Larisa looked at the time on her wrist watch. "You said your parents are on their way here, right?" She asked with her brows crossed. "Yeah. Dad told me that my Mom bought a lot of things for you," he mentioned. "What? She's spoiling me," Larisa commented unbelievably. She really treats her like her real daughter. "You know her. She really likes you," Gabe replied with a tiny smile before he stole a kiss from her soft lips."Where are they? They are taking too long," she uttered, and could not help but to wonder."Maybe it's just traffic. You know this country," he took a heavy breath as i

All the customers were also watching it, how Larisa Castellan took over the properties that actually belonged to her. "It's just a little revenge," David uttered as he stood up beside him. There was the Valestine, avoiding the cameras that were taking their photos. "I can't even go to the hospital and visit Amber, I'm too weak for that." Leo said and took a deep breath as he continued to serve the orders. "I heard she's not in good condition. One of the men told me that she almost died earlier, but she still fought hard to live." David discussed. Just like them, they are also worried. But all they can do is to wait and stand by until Larisa makes her move."Do you think Larisa really plans to kick them out that quick?" Leo asked while Bea and Nathan were busy. "Of course not. She probably just did it because of what happened to Amber," David replied,

Since the incident happened, Estevan didn't leave his wife's side anymore. He stayed there beside her, talking to her while holding her hand and planted kisses on it. "I was actually delighted that you were the first person I always see when I woke up from those incidents we've been through before," Larisa uttered as she took a deep sigh along with a small soft smile that flashed on her lips. Gabe reached her hand and held it tightly. "I know what he feels, I've been there." He uttered with a small smile as he turned back his eyes at Estevan inside the room. "Do you know what I always felt during those days that I was waiting for you to wake up?" He asked and glanced at her. "I felt like my world was collapsing. It feels like I'm gonna lose my mind if I lose you," he replied with a weak smile. "You were scared," she said. Gabe simply nodded at her. "

A lot of what ifs are pouring in her head. She was still stained with Amber's blood but she never wants to leave her side. "Amber Clyborne, she's my wife. Where is she?" Her eyes were captured as soon as he heard Estevan's anxious and frightened voice as he asked the nurse about her wife."Larisa!" Gavin exclaimed aloud that his voice almost echoed in the hospital. Their eyes all went at her who was standing in front of the operating room, shivering. When her eyes found Gabe, the weakness that she has been holding back for Amber finally filled her out. "What happened?" Gavin asked immediately. But before Larisa could even answer him, Gabe quickly pulled her towards him and locked her in his arms. He knows—he knows those eyes of hers. He can tell just by looking at her eyes what she feels. That is how Gabe Clyborne

"Did Amber reply?" She asked. "No. Maybe she's still busy shopping," Estevan uttered. She washed her hands on her face in frustration. "Where's that mall?" Larisa asked. "The only mall here in this city," Gavin answered instead. Larisa quickly stood up and was about to leave them behind. "Where are you going?" Gabe asked. "I'll follow her," she said. "Hey, calm down. Nothing's going to happen. My men are with her," Estevan said, making her calm. But then, her instincts tell her something that is bothering her. "Estevan, your wife is pregnant. How can you be calm there? The Valestine can quickly kill your men!" She exclaimed with frustration. They all became silent, especially Estevan. Larisa took a heavy breath and cooled herself down.

She was only waiting for them to come and she was too dumb to decide recklessly again. "We retrieve, Lucinda." Yna uttered, glaring at them.
