Chapter 27 - I Thought I Had Loosed You

"God, I've never been this scared and worried my whole life," Mandy said to Bianca.

Me too. When I woke up, you were the first person I thought of and when I called and your number wasn't connecting, I was really scared. Tell me what happened to you? Bianca asked.

On that day, I overheard you scream and I rushed downstairs to check up on you but someone began to strangle me from behind and that was it. I went blank only to wake up at a smelling place with my mouth sealed and blindfolded but I was able to escape before reaching out to boss. That was when I realized you haven't been found" Mandy narrated.

"So sorry babe," Bianca said pitifully.

"Are you kidding me? You were the one who suffered the most. You could have died if not for the Alexander guy. We need to visit them once you've fully recovered" Mandy suggested.

Sure, I will do that.

Yeah. 

"But I'm still scared," Bianca said.

Why?

Irys. What if she's planning more evil? What.....

Bianca, relax.

I'm sure the boss and his brother are working On it. I just pray everything works out perfectly because a lot is happening at the Company right now and...(Knock at the door)

"I guess that's Boss," Mandy said.

"Come in," Bianca said.

Door opens.

"Good evening sir" Mandy greeted.

Good evening Mandy. Why don't you go get some rest since you just got back?

Alright, sir.

And how are you feeling now? He asked with no emotion.

"Much better sir" She replied.

"Babe, I'll see you later" she smiled at her lovingly.

Okay.

...

"Hey," Kingsley said calmly.

Hey

How are you feeling? 

"I feel better" she replied.

"That's a relief," he said and sat on the chair close to where she was seated on the bed.

"You know, For a minute, I thought I had loosed you," Kingsley said holding her hands and caressing them and this took Bianca by surprise.

"Yeah, I thought I was gonna die myself," she said sincerely.

"I can only imagine the pain you went through and all this is my fault," he said sadly and anger written over him.

"No, it's not your fault. You did nothing wrong. She was the one who did you wrong. So please don't crucify yourself" she said calmly.

"Don't try to be humble and calm like you always do" He smiled. 

Vent your anger on me, please. I'm giving you this chance to vent your anger on me as someone who made you know the pain and not as your arrogant and cold boss" he smiled and Bianca gave a soft smile too.

"So, speak," he said.

Mr. Kingsley...

"Just Kingsley please," He said.

Okay.

Kingsley, you did nothing wrong. I was just a victim of circumstance. She got the wrong idea about me and it's fine. I mean, it's crazy" she laughed.

"How on earth does she even think that we have a thing going on? That's impossible" she said.

Bianca??? He called.

Yes, 

"I'm in love with you," he said out of the blue and this left Bianca shocked like she was hit by lightning. She opened her mouth but words didn't form.

"Yes, I know. I know you think I'm crazy and probably losing my mind but yeah I will agree with you that I'm losing my mind because I don't understand what is wrong with me" He explained.

Sir.....how???she managed to talk. She haven't seen the vulnerable part of him before.

"I don't know but, just forget that I ever say anything and just focus on getting better" He said and she only nodded.

Are you okay with the dinner you were served?

Yes. Thank you.

Alright. I'll let you get some rest and also, be rest assured that Irys and who was involved will not go unpunished" he said and she nodded.

Yeah. Let me know if you need anything and most importantly, don't get involved with any work activities till you're fully recovered. Okay?

Alright. Thank you.

"You're welcome" he said and left the room and head straight to the bar in the living room to get some Alcohol because he can't explain how he was feeling.
