Chapter 49
Bella's POV
I woke up with a start. I feel like someone is watching me, watching us. It's still dark outside, and Liam is sleeping soundly beside me. I reached for my phone to check the time. It's only 2 am.
I got up, suddenly feeling thirsty. I put on my robe and slowly went out of my bedroom to get water. The whole house is so quiet. I walk to the dimly lit living room. Some light is coming in from the glass window. I went straight to the kitchen, grabbed a glass, and filled it with water.
I looked out the window and watched the darkness. I thought about the accident, and I can't help but shudder. I could have died. My daughter could have died. Whoever this guy is, he really wants us dead.
While looking out the window, I suddenly gasped, and goosebumps covered my body. I think there's someone out there watching me. I saw a shadow move from behind the tree.
I put my glass on the sink and hurried out of there. I almost screamed when I bumped into someone. Strong arms held me by the waist, and when I looked up, I was so relieved it was Liam.
" Baby, what are you doing out of bed this late?" He asked me. I hugged him tight, and I'm pretty sure he felt me shiver.
" I got thirsty, babe, so I came out to get some water," I whispered to him, burying my face on his chest.
" Then why are you shivering? What's going on?" He asked again and stroked my head and back. He lifted my face with his hand and stared into my eyes with worry.
" I thought I saw someone outside. At the back, behind the trees. I saw a shadow move like it is watching me. But maybe I imagined it, or my mind is playing tricks on me because of what happened." I whispered to him, fear is still evident in my face and my voice.
" Are you sure? Come on, let's go check." He held my hand and led me to the kitchen. He looked out the window and watched the tree, but there's no one there.
" Maybe it was just the branches or the leaves moving, baby then created a shadow that you thought it was someone moving." He told me, then rubbed my arms.
" Maybe," I answered softly, but not really convinced. I swear I felt that guy's eyes on me, but I won't tell Liam, or he might worry all the time.
" Alright, my sweet, let's get you to bed." He said and kissed my forehead.
" Okay," So we went inside our room but still, the feeling of being watched lingers. I can't shake the feeling that someone is watching us.
" Come on, baby, go back to sleep. You still need to take a lot of rest so you will recover faster." Liam pulled me in his arms, spooning me.
" Goodnight, again, my love." He whispered, then kissed my neck.
" Goodnight, babe," I whispered back and snuggled closer to him. Slowly, I succumbed to sleep and felt safe in Liam's arms.
Unknown's POV
This bitch must have 9 lives. She got lucky the first time, but I will make sure she's dead next time. I want this arrogant doctor to suffer. I want him to feel the pain of losing someone he loves.
I have been cautious with my plan. I did not expect this girl to come back but see how Liam loves her, and their daughter makes everything perfect.
I have been standing outside their house watching when I saw her came to the kitchen. I will get you. I will destroy all of you! She looked out the window and looked straight in my direction, so I hid behind the tree.
She must have felt my presence. She quickly turned to leave when the bastard Liam showed up. I hid behind the tree and kept myself in the dark.
I will have my revenge. If I can't kill the girl, then I will have to kill Liam. You can have your fun for now. Enjoy each other while you still can. Soon I will burst your happy bubble and send you all to hell!
My sister suffered because of both of you, including the doctor's sister. You drove her to insanity; that's why she killed herself. Now I will drive you all to insanity, and I will kill one of you.
No one knew I existed. I was in prison for 10 years, but I heard about my sister's death and the reason behind it. I have nearly gone mad and wanted to go on a killing spree, but I held back my anger.
I planned my revenge with caution and precision. I will destroy your lives the way you destroy my sister. When the two went back to their room. I went out of my hiding place and walked back to where I came from.
Soon, baby sis, soon. I will bring them all to their knees and send them to hell. I will execute my plan in two days. I will make sure one of them dies.
Bella's POV
I woke up feeling tired and troubled. After what happened, I have always dreaded to hear the sound of my phone or riding the car.
At first, I thought the stalker wanted to scare me, but I realized he wanted me dead after the accident. He could hurt any of us, but what's bugging me is, why?
What have I done for him to hate me this much? I cannot think of anyone I have offended for the past years. My head is throbbing. I am scared of what might happen, of what he will do next.
I woke up alone in my bed. I must have slept in, seeing the sun is high up the sky. I reached for my phone to see it's already 9 am. Then my door opened, and my little Princess peeked.
" Daddy, she's awake! Mommy is finally awake!" Sophie screamed for her dad and ran to my bed straight to my arms.
" Good morning, mommy! I was scared you wouldn't wake up again!" She said, laying her head on my chest.
" Good morning, sweetheart. I am sorry, I must have been exhausted. That is why I woke up late." I told her, stroking her hair. Then my door opened wide, and Liam came in with a tray of yummy breakfast and steaming coffee.
" Good morning, sleepyhead." He greeted and came to kiss me after placing the tray on my bedside table. I got up and lean on my headboard, smiling.
" Good morning, babe. I could get used to this." I told him and pointed at my breakfast. He sat beside me, and Sophie went to his lap.
" Oh, you should get used to this, baby, because I will serve you breakfast in bed every day." He grinned and kissed my temple. He then reached for the tray and placed it on my lap.
" I helped daddy make your breakfast, mommy. I kept on checking on you, but you won't wake up." She pouted, and I pinched her cute nose and kissed her chubby cheeks.
" Thank you, my sweet. Don't worry. I will not sleep for very long this time." I told her and started eating. I felt Liam's eyes on me, so I turned to look at him with raised brows.
He just smiled, shook his head then kissed me. He stared into my eyes with tenderness and love, so I smiled back and kissed him back. I want this. I want to wake up like this for the rest of my life.
