Chapter 56


    Caleb Pov


    A thrilling silence prevailed between me and Nathan as we watched the video that Sang sent us. It


    would be weird to say, but I felt terrified as I heard her voice and saw what she did.


    To top of that my mother was hurt and she looked like, she was bleeding very badly.


    "How could San-"


    "Listen! I know there is a lot going on inside you now but you saw what she did and what she said. She


    gave us only fifteen minutes to make Giselle confess," Nathan interrupted me, and as he said that I


    looked down at the phone.


    "I know, but this is not right," I found myself talking as I thought about it.


    "We were already looking for Giselle''s weakness. We found it! Look! Caleb. Just don''t think about it!


    Before Sangavi does which would ruin both of your lives, let''s stop it!" he said and I looked up at him,


    nodding. I felt perplexed about what I was going on, but nothing mattered to me more than my family. I


    wanted to reach my mother for her aid and Sang as soon as possible.


    "Let''s go!" I said and we re-entered the police station, wanting to meet Giselle.


    We were already in the police station with Giselle as the officers tried to interrogate her, but she


    refused to open her mouth even after the man with her that we caught, confessed to everything.


    The officer looked back at me through the ss door and I looked back at my phone''s screen. Sang


    gave me only fifteen minutes.


    I signaled the officer toe out of the room and asked him if I could talk to Giselle. He thought about


    it and asked his fellow mate in charge and allowed me in. Nathan chose to stay out of the room with the


    officers, as I took the seat before Giselle who spits to her side as she scrunched up her nose in disgust


    looking back at me.


    "No matter how many times youe here and show your face, it''s not gonna work for you guys you


    know!" she muttered and I smiled nodding at her.


    "It is already starting to work as the guy, Victor who is your bodyguard has already opened his mouth!" I


    told her as she huffed at me.


    "So what? His testimony doesn''t have any value. I don''t even know that guy," she looked so assertive


    with her response that my hands went sweaty. I didn''t wish to do what I was nning to do as I took my


    phone out and kept it before her.


    "What''s this?" she asked as her eyes fell on my phone and I pushed the phone further. "See-through it!


    Maybe it will open your mouth!" I told her as she narrowed her eyes and raised her hands up which


    were handcuffed as she yed the video.


    The video started ying and the sounds of a woman crying and yelling were heard. I watched as her


    eyes widened up for a second as she watched the video with Sang warning her to open her mouth as


    she hit Hailey who yelped in pain. I could see there was some tension in Giselle''s eye for the first time


    as she watched the video and I was on the edge of the chair. I was sure, she would eventually give up


    and confess.


    Sang told me that Hailey was Giselle''s daughter and Hailey''s father is her, cousin brother. They have


    been together, plotting so many things against innocent people. Whatever it was, I hoped at least a


    mother''s instinct and protectiveness was there inside Giselle as she looked worried just for a second


    but the next minute, she threw the phone back at me and it caught me off-guard as I caught it and


    looked at her cautiously.


    "Why are showing this to me? I don''t have any rtion to this," she said with a deadpan face and I


    gawked at her for a second before blood boiled in me and I got up mming my hands on the table.


    "To your own daughter? Do you choose yourself over your own daughter? What type of mother are


    you?" I yelled and the door opened as the officers walked in.


    "Oh, how can I forget? You didn''t even spare your husband, why would even think about your blood?


    Let her die!" my nostrils fared up as I yelled at her but she had no reaction. I was failing to get any


    reaction from her and it was infuriating me. Lives were on lines and Sang, she would end up doing


    something which would destroy her own life. I couldn''t let that happen to her and to us.


    I won''t let Giselle win this time and I won''t let Sang suffer.


    "Caleb!" Nathan was right beside me.


    I had no idea what type of woman Giselle was. Her daughter seemed to be dying in that video and she


    had no reaction. How can one be like this?

    "You are such a wicked and ck-hearted woman that now, you don''t worry about anything. People


    like you don''t even deserve a ce in hell. You will never understand what love is because you chose


    yourself over everything. You will live and die alone! And you deserve it for the pain you have caused to


    people, you deserve a worse death, nobody by your side as youy there waiting to die. I hope at that


    moment, you understand how it feels when you have nobody to sit beside you, to cry for you, to pray


    for you," I yelled at top of my voice hoping my words to reach her ears.


    She was like a dead person sitting there staring at nothing. Her eyes dead and that sinister smile of


    hers, long gone.


    Nathan pulled me away with him and I held my phone as he directed me out of the room. Once, out of


    the room, I exhaled out heavily as I grabbed my head. I had no idea what is going to happen.


    "What do I do? Damn it! What do I do?" I was already pacing around anxious about what was going on


    with Sang.


    "Listen! Hear me out! Rx!" Nathan got before me trying to stop me but I pushed him away as I red


    at him. "Rx? Do you not fucking understand the situation? Sang! She will kill Hailey and she will ruin


    her life. I can''t let this happen. I will make Giselle confess today, no matter what! Even if I had to kill her,


    I will do that!" I said out loud and made an attempt to walk back towards the interrogation room but


    Nathan caught me in ce and pushed me back.


    "Stop it Caleb!" he yelled at me.


    "We don''t have time Nathan and I can''t let Sa-,"


    "I know! I know! So hear me out! Sang doesn''t need to see Giselle''s confession. Just message her that


    she did! We have less time and instead of wasting our time let''s go search for your mother and Sang.


    They need you!" he told me and I stood straight in my ce thinking about it as I adjusted my suit and


    looked back at Giselle''s interrogation room.


    I did what Nathan told me.


    I lied to Sangavi.


    ~


    It took us some minutes as we used the helicopter to get to Sang''s location. It was already a piece of


    national news and the paparazzi somehow got to know about it and the reporter''s helicopter roamed


    around the building. They all wanted to know how a celebrity kidnapped my girlfriend. They wanted to


    know the reason for Hailey to kidnap Sang. To know if it for revenge or jealousy.


    I hurried my way inside, getting past the police team and the paramedic team. Adrenaline rush came in


    me as I got worried about my mother. She was hurt when I saw her in the video. My steps faltered out


    of anxiety but I didn''t stop as I found the floor in the newly constructed building and got in where the


    paramedics were going.


    My eyes fell on Sang. Her hair disheveled, her eyes bloodshot red and as soon as her eyes fell on me


    she came running to me. My heartbeat was fast, but I found solemn as soon as she was in my arms.


    She was wailing and held me tightly as she buried her face in my chest. I had an idea, how distressed


    she was.


    Her body was shaking and she trembled and she cried, delivering her emotions to me. I could only tell


    her that everything was alright. My eyes fell on my mother and I unwrapped my arms from Sang as she


    looked at up me and then looked back towards my mother who was being treated by the paramedic


    team.


    Within seconds I was near her as she looked up at me and smiled. I was about to burst out crying as I


    saw her condition but the team told me that the bullet went away touching her. So, there is no need of


    worry. But still, I was worried like hell as I wrapped my arms on her and pulled her to my racing


    heartbeat. Sheughed wanting to make the atmosphere a little bit lighter and I looked back at Sang as


    my mother opened her arms for her. She came running to us as my mother and I hugged her tightly.


    ~


    A day passed by and both Sang and my mother were treated for any injuries. The doctor informed us


    that our baby was alright but at this period of time, Sang needs to be out of stress. My mother on the


    other handed got admitted for preventing the infections from the bullet. I called my father and my


    rtives and they came rushing for my mother. I was at ease because my family was with me when I


    needed them the most.


    Hailey was arrested and is in custody as she is going through interrogation sessions. But she managed


    to hire awyer who is trying hard to get her free from the total drama.


    It was the time when I told Sangavi that Giselle didn''t confess and I lied to her wanting her not to do


    anything stupid. I had expected that she would be angry andsh out on me but what she did was


    totally the opposite. She was quiet for sometime after learning the truth but ended up with an emotional


    breakdown as she thanked me for not letting her ruin our life. She was d that she didn''t pull the


    trigger on Hailey.


    On the other hand, Hailey has been rebellious as she was charged with kidnapping and attempt of


    murder. It took me some days but finally, I was able to meet her in jail as I told her how her mother


    didn''t even care when she was before Sang''s gun. She was quiet and didn''t even react to what I told


    her but yelled at me for choosing Sang over her, which made no sense to me as we were never even


    close. I was sure, she knew nothing about me but why she thought I chose Sang over her was out of


    my imagination.


    For the time being, they were found guilty and time passed by with the court hearings as finally, Giselle


    got the lifetime imprisonment order from the court while Hailey got a twelve years jail option.


    Herwyers fought hard wanting to get her less punishment but Sang was determined to get her more,


    she was scared what if she got free after twelve years ande after us wanting to hurt our family out


    of revenge. Hailey, on the other hand, didn''t seem any affected by the judgment. She did eye Sang


    once as she was taken out of the court after she was found guilty.


    Finally, after so many months, the time hase as Sang said she would want to meet Giselle


    personally. She wants to ask her what fun she got by ruining people''s life.


    I was reluctant at first about letting Sang, meet Giselle. But Nathan persuaded me that it was needed.


    Sang should get the chance to meet Giselle. Its been seven months since Giselle was found guilty of


    the murder of Mason Carter, Jane Carter, Oliver Lewis, Mnie Hill, and Tommy Albert, son of a


    businessman.


    She didn''t confess to anything but the investigators managed to get every evidence as Nathan


    provided some details which he managed to get while he was investigating.


    I watched as Sang stood there with me as she was already eight months pregnant, waiting to meet


    Giselle. She managed to go with her course as she took online tutoring and notes from her friends but


    she did fly back to Paris when she four months pregnant to give the exam. My mother went with her


    and took care of her the whole month as she caught up with the studies and gave her exam


    Finally, as she was given the date when she could face Giselle, she was ready and determined to meet


    her. Heavy security was given to Sang as she was pregnant and we didn''t want Giselle to hurt Sang.


    I stood right before the room where Sang was supposed to meet Giselle. We could see right through


    the small ss panel that Giselle was already inside seating with handcuffs on her hand and two


    guards behind her. Sang looked agitated and jaws locked as she watched Giselle silently. I knew she


    was having an internal battle and she was confused if she was making the right choice to meet Giselle.


    I held her hand and she looked back at me as I gave her a smile.


    We managed toe so far by ourselves. I knew she was strong enough to do this and be in peace. I


    have seen how agitated and disturbed whenever she was left alone. I knew she was always thinking


    about Giselle. I had to let her meet her so that she gets to be at ease after confronting her.


    "Everything is going to be fine. I am here with you," I told her and pulled her closer as I gave ced a


    kiss on her forehead and she smiled looking up at me.


    The pregnancy got her, and she looked so beautiful and mature. I couldn''t remove my eyes off her. She


    nodded at me and it was when I let go of her hand as she ced her hand on the doorknob and finally I


    watched as she went inside the room whilst I stood there waiting for her toe back outside so that


    we could go back and start our life, happily, together.


    I was nning to propose her and hopefully, she would say yes, this time as I ced my hand in my


    suit pocket and touched the ring box.
