CEO’s Romantic Affair

Chapter 64: I Can See Him



She ran as fast as she could to the end of the alley. She turned around, fear flashing through her. There was no way that she was going to be caught by that man. Cathryn was still in the early stages of pregnancy, so if that man raped her, it would probably cause her to miscarry.

All these thoughts were racing through Cathryn’s mind as she was running. She was almost to the end of the alley and looked back at the man. “I can see him. He’s almost six feet tall. He’s dressed in black and wearing a mask. Keith…..” Then the phone went dead.

The man looked at Cathryn as if he were looking at his prey, which made Cathryn extremely frightened. She turned her head back and despairingly ran forward. Cathryn ran as fast as she could, getting closer and closer to the end of the alley.

She was terrified. “Stay away from me. My husband is coming for me, if he gets his hands on you, you will regret it,” Cathryn screamed. She slightly turned back and saw him getting closer. “Is there anyone there? Please help me!” She cried out lustily for help. Nobody was there, and she felt so helpless that the tears began to roll down her cheeks.

Just as she ran out of the alley and entered the dense woods, a man suddenly appeared in front of her, and he held her firmly in his arms. She wriggled against his hold as she tried to pull her arms free. Cathryn could smell the odor of cigarettes, and then she struggled again to push him away. She shouted in panic, “Let go of me! What do you want from me?”

“Cathryn! What’s wrong? It’s me.” Jordan said as he yelled her name. He couldn’t help but feel concerned to see her confused state of mind. Then he threw away the cigarette and grasped her shoulders. Jordan shook her, trying to bring Cathryn out of her daze.

Jordan appeared in front of her just in time. Cathryn looked at Jordan as if her consciousness was dissociated from her body. Then bursting into tears, she hid her face in his arms.

While Jordan was holding Cathryn in his arms, he looked up and caught a glimpse of a dark figure in the alley. He looked down at Cathryn, who was trembling in fear, and said, “Cathryn was someone following you? Are you hurt?”

Cathryn was panic-stricken and muttered something under her breath. “He’s been following me ever since I started walking back to the hotel.”

Jordan felt as if an iron hammer had crushed his heart. It was agony to watch her suffer like that. “It looks like he’s gone. I’m thankful I came out for a smoke when he did,” Jordan said. There was tenderness on his face as he looked at Cathryn.

He didn’t even want to think about what would have happened to Cathryn if he hadn’t been here. Fear welled up in his mind like a sea of waves.

Jordan held Cathryn tighter in his arms and said, “Don’t worry, everything is going to be okay. You’re safe now!” He smiled and gently patted her on the back, again and again, trying to comfort her. “Don’t be afraid, Cathryn. I’m here.”

When the phone went dead, the red dot on the screen stopped, remaining motionless. Looking at the red dot on the screen, Keith’s eyes showed fear. The sense of the unknown terrified him. “What if something happened to her,” Keith said in a soft whisper. He never moved, he just stood. ‘Is she okay or….’ His thoughts were scattered. Then he grabbed his laptop and threw it against the wall.

“Arrange the plane for me. I am flying to Well City right away!” Keith roared.

His secretary had never seen him lose his temper like this before. He was always gentle and kind, she stood there for a second, looking at him, wondering what was going on. Her voice trembled as she began to speak, “Yes, Mr. Clarkson.”

After Keith called the police, the police quickly arrived at the scene of the incident. At that time, Cathryn had already calmed down, and then she was taken to the police station to make a statement. Jordan asked for the afternoon off and accompanied her to the police station.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

On the way to the station, Cathryn sat in the car, staring out the window, not saying a word. It was as though she was dissociated from her body from the trauma she endured. She lost the capacity to cope and deal with the experience.

While they were at the police station, one of the officers explained the situation to Jordan and Cathryn. “You’re very lucky, Miss.

There’s a serial killer known as the Devil who has been appearing near the filming base. After raping women, he would murder his victims and dismember their corpses. We have found many dismembered bodies in Well City.”

Cathryn looked at Jordan, tears filling in her eyes, and said, “I don’t know how to thank you. If it wasn’t for you, I would have been his next victim.” She shivered in fear. Cathryn couldn’t imagine what would have happened if Jordan hadn’t been there to save her. Then she pushed the unwanted thoughts away.

After they were finished giving their statements, Cathryn and Jordan got ready to leave the police station. The news of Jordan coming to the station had already hit the headlines. The company to which Jordan belonged had previously issued a statement.

They said that Jordan had saved an actress, Cathryn, who had been followed by a serial killer. Then the whole entertainment circle began to praise Jordan’s brave deeds, which occupied the headlines of all the entertainment media. Of course, the entire thing just created a significant amount of buzz on the Internet.

When they started to leave the police station, Jordan noticed the media was still surrounding the entrance of the station. He saw how frightened Cathryn still was, and he immediately called Jason. “Jason, would you mind coming over to the police station to pick us up? Cathryn is quite shaken up, and the front door is surrounded by the media. Meet us at the back entrance.”
