Gale stared for a while, hesitation was written all over her face. She looked back and saw that the men running after her were almost near.
"Just get in!" she heard another shout. Gale turned to look at the man and recognizing who the man was, she quickly got inside the car.
Gale was panting badly and she could feel her heart was beating so hard because of nervousness. She looked back and gasped, "Oh my God, they are following us!"
She was panicking. She had never experienced something like this before. She felt as if her heart would burst out from her chest. Those men hurriedly went in their cars and were chasing after them right now.
"Put your seatbelt on, hurry!" she heard another instruction from the man.
Gale followed, and with trembling hands put on her seatbelt. As soon as she buckled herself to safety, she felt their car speed up. She held her breath and grabbed the handle above.
Gale felt she was going to throw up soon with how their car was moving so fast. It felt worse than a rollercoaster ride during the zigzag movements of the car to not let those cars block them at front.
Finally, after what she felt like a cat chasing the mouse scene, they finally managed to escape from the chasing men and reach a safe spot. Soon their car stopped and Gale finally released some breath she thought she lost somewhere during the whole scene.
"Are you alright?" she heard him speak.
Gale opened her eyes and darted them at him. "Do you think I will be after getting chased like that? Who are they?" she snorted as she removed the seatbelt and opened the window to get more air.
"I think they are hired men to kill you and who else do you think they were sent here by? It's obviously Frank who has sent those goons…"

Gale's facial muscle flinched as she realized something. She turned at him and asked with a creased forehead, "What were you doing there? Are you stalking me?!"
Craig's face darkened, hearing Gale's accusation of stalking her. It was not like he wanted to do it, but he was tasked to do it. Noah had sent him to be her bodyguard almost twenty-four seven a day since the day she and Noah met.
Noah suspected that Gale's life would be in danger soon, so he had asked him to take charge of her security. He was not only Noah's personal assistant, but his bodyguard as well. He was his most trusted man because he and Noah were also close friends since their high school days.
He heaved a frustrated sigh. He did not expect that he would one day be so lowered in rank to be sent to babysit a woman like Gale, but then Noah only trusted him for this task. Gale was like one of his gems he did not want to lose.
Instead of answering Gale, Craig went out to grab the medical kit in his car. He walked around to go to the passenger seat and opened the door.
"What are you doing?" Gale cried in horror when she felt Craig was so near to her. He leaned close and removed her seatbelt, then he moved her body in a swift motion so she would face him. She saw him bent on his knees as his eyes focussed on her knee.
"You hurt yourself. You were going to the graveyard, so why did you wear heels?" Craig said casually as he cleaned up Gale's wound on her knee.
"Ouch!" she cried. She didn't even notice that she got wounded.
Craig's eyebrows raised as he mumbled, "This is just a scratch."
Gale's eyebrows snapped. How come the man was talking to her informally unlike the courteous person when he introduced himself to her before when she was out of the detention center.
"There…" Craig muttered as he put on the band aid.
He stood up and went back inside the car. "I think it would be best for you not to go back to your apartment because I'm sure those men will never stop looking for you."
"Let's go to the police station. I will report this. And why are you not answering me? What are you doing there? Were you stalking me?" She suspiciously asked.

Craig sighed, then looked at Gale and said, "I was tasked to check and guard you."
Gale's eyebrows collided as she burst, "what?!"
"Let's get out of here first, shall we? Before I explain everything to you?" Craig muttered as he started the engine of the car and hit the pedal to get back on the road.
"We can talk as you drive. Please enlighten me…" Gale insisted. She sounded suspicious of his intentions, and Craig understood where she was coming from.
"Hmm as I've said I am tasked to check on you since Noah suspected that you'll be in danger. Frank murdered his own blood to get that money. So it's just common sense he will plan the same thing for you, especially now."
"So you really were stalking me?"
"Stop saying I'm a stalker because that's the last thing you should be bothered about. Aren't you even grateful that I followed you? I just saved your life a while ago.
Can you imagine what those guys would do to you if you were captured by them? They are from the underworld, so you can not even imagine the kind of torture they are capable of inflicting on a person, worst to a woman…"
Then Gale realized that she did not even thank him for saving her.
"Thank you… Craig, right?" She murmured.
"Yeah, Craig at your service. I only have one request from you, Ms. Gale. Don't make things hard for me. Don't be stubborn and do as I say. That way you will also be able to survive and I will also be able to keep my job…" Craig requested in advance.
Observing Gale for the last few days had given him enough impression of how stubborn she could get. Like visiting Frank at prison without accepting Noah's offer yet. He heard that she made a big scene inside, cursing and trying to scratch Frank as much as she could in the visiting room.
"Have you decided something about the offer Noah gave you?" He asked Gale.
"Why? Are you going to drop me here somewhere if I said that I'm rejecting Noah's offer?" She scorned and it made him chuckle.
"What's funny?" Gale beamed.
"You… who else? You just gave me an idea what to do… So tell me? Are you rejecting Noah's offer? Because I will drop you off here if that's the case. You see I know my boss very well…
He will not invest into something or someone that will not give him any profit or an advantage. I bet those goons are still roaming around, sweeping every corner of the city to look for you."
Gale gulped. So she basically did not have a choice?
"I believe it would be also in your best interest to accept the deal Mrs. Ming… Since it's a good one and I assure you that you will get the best for that bargain in return."
Gale scoffed and muttered, "I guess you won't be Noah's assistant for nothing."
