Cold Hearted Princess

Chapter 40 Despair "Why? I told you I would take you home. Don't you live here?" "I thought you would taketo yours." I shook my head.

"Gemma, I told you. I need to take care of sbusiness, and I will probably be out all night." She looked at me, frowning.

"Is it about another woman?" 1 laughed. Actually, she was right, but she had nothing to do with that, as I always told her I didn't want a relationship. But this tI didn't argue with her, as I needed her.

"Gemma, don't think too much." "Then why can't I stay in your house?" 1 took a deep breath.

"Gemma, do you remember what I told you when we started this all?" I could see she swallowed, and she lowered her head.

"I know Gideon, but we are together happily. I understand you, and you knowwell. We are good together." "Most of the time, yes, but you didn't letbreathe lately. I need a break." Her face changed to an angry one.

"I'm sorry, but do I remember correctly you got married to another woman lately?" "Do I remember correctly I told you the reason?" "You can't be serious." "I am. I'll contact you soon, but if you want to continue with me, then givea break." "But..." Her eyes becteary, and when the first tear rolled down on her cheek, I felt the usual anger.

+10% Bonus 08:02 "Gemma, I'll be late. "She shook her head and left the car. She stayed next to it and looked atwhile she wiped her tears. I shook my head this time, and I just drove away.

When I finally was alone, I took a deep breath, and I tried to calm myself down. I was on the way home. To Alice..

I just started to think about how I could propitiate her when my phone was ringing. I pulled down on the side of the road, and my heart nearly jumped out of my chest, when I saw "Sam" on the screen.

"Gideon, I apologise to you." He stopped. I felt like someone was suffocating me.

"What happened, Sam? Tell me." "Alice, she disappeared. She escaped through the basement door. I'm so sorry." 10 Chapter 40 Despar "Call everyone, Sam. We must find her before Riccardo does." I knew I wouldn't be enough to do this alone, so this tI didn't care who thinks what. After I hung up on S In two seconds.

on Sam, I called Seth. He picked the phone up Gid? "What's up, "Seth, Alice has disappeared." I couldn't hide the panic from my voice, but after a sigh, he answered.

"Actually, this is what you wanted. Let's hope Riccardo will be satisfied, and we can just live our lives at ease from now "No. I need her. I want her back. Helpfind her." I shouted at the phone in panic. He remained quiet for a few seconds before he answered.

"Meetin the town at the usual place. I'll be there in five minutes. I'll call the guys." ΜΠ "Thank you." I told him with a bit of relief. After I turned the engine on and I drove to the meeting place. I was only a few minutes from there, but I didn't care about any speed limits.

I arrived there at the stas Seth. He's got into my car.

"Where should we go first?" I asked him. He looked atand frowned.

"Seth." I shouted at him impatiently.

"Okay, Gid, first, calm down." I took a deep breath and 1 let the steering wheel go "Okay, Last tshe went to the bus station, I don't think she'd go there again." I looked at him with a sudden move.

"Last time? What? What the hell are you talking about?" I asked him +101 Bonu 07:51 "Gideon, it's not the first tshe is trying to escape. Try the t train station first." I tumed the engine on, and took the way to the train station, but I couldn't let it go..

"Seth, what the hell did you talk about?" "Last tI caught her at the bus station. I took her back. I didn't tell you about that because I was worried you were going to hurt her.

I looked at him for a second.

"Why do you think I would hurt her? I would never hurt a woman physically." "Really? Then what the hell did Gemma talk about today?" I made a face and shook my head.

"Seth, I didn't touch Alice. I only told Gemma that I did, because this was that she wanted to hear." He stared atfor a few seconds, like he wanted to read my face.

"Gideon, would you explain towhat the fuk are you doing?" After taking a deep breath, I looked up and sighed. I thought there was no point in hiding anything fin anything from Sefi "1 started this madness, and I was confident about my plan, but Alice cinto my life. I got to know about her more, and i just couldn't do that to her.

Chapter 40 Despair Gemma hated her from the beginning, which I couldn't blher for, but she's gone too far. Since Alice is here, Gemma literally stuck to me, and she is so fu*king annoying, I can't stand her anymore. She kept provoking Alice disgustingly, and I just got to finish that. To defend Alice, I showed up with Gemma" I could see Seth holding his head while I was talking.

"You know Gid, I always knew that you are an idiot, but to face with that you are truly an idiot makessay that you are a fu'king idiot. Did you seriously believe that your plan was going to work? What do you think? What is Riccardo going to do? You showed up with Alice first, then you were with Gemma in public. Don't you think he is only laughing at you while he is planning to take both of them?" I couldn't answer that. I had to admit that he was right.

We arrived at the train station, and I parked my car. I exhaled. I thought the best way was, if I was honest with him.

Seth, I know what I did was wrong and stupid. I used to be a terrible person and I might still be, but I'm sure about one thing. Alice changed me. I think I fell for her. I couldn't take that if they would harm her. So please help me." When I said I fell for her, he looked atwith a sudden move, and I saw he tried to read my face again. Probably he saw I was honest, because his face showed skind of understanding.

"Don't worry Gideon, we'll find her." I nodded nervously. We both left the car, and we held our guns under our jackets. When we arrived at a corner, we both pulled back, as we could see many guys in suits. My heart ached to realise that they were Riccardo's guys.

"Gid, I think we should split." I nodded while I put my bluetooth earbuds into my ear, and I rang him. He put his earbuds in his ear, too, and he NO om received my call "Okay, we stay in contact. I nodded, and we both went in a different direction. I could see ours as well all around. As I walked closer to the entrance, I saw a familiar figure cout of the station. My heart pounded faster when I recognised her, but the fear also hit me. I saw Riccardo's guys followed her. "Seth, she is..." "I can see her too. We follow them. I'm going to disconnect the call and ring our guys." "Okay." +10 Bonu 07:51

I pulled my hoodie up, and I walked with the crowd, keeping my eyes on her. She looked back, and she started to run. I noticed the alley just a few steps away from her. I knew they were waiting for her there. When I saw Seth walking there too, I ran as fast as I could to get behind them. I reached the end of the alley. Thank God it wasn't too long. I saw him waiting for her. That was Carlo, Riccardo's first entrusted guy. I approached slowly, holding my gun, and it was painful to see he caught Alice. She tried to get free, and she
