Chapter 92 An instantly sobering meeting
Our gases met only for a second as she turned around and disappeared in the crowd. I forgot about everything, and I ran after her. The crowd held me back, and I quickly lost her from my view. I ran out using the main entrance, as that was the closest. As I ran up the street, an expensive car’s back caught my attention. It dence away quickly. I couldn’t see the plate number, but I knew the type. The D’angelis have used these ears since the accident happened.
“Gideon.”
I closed my eyes in disbelief when I recognised Amber’s voice.
“Gideon, what is wrong? Why did you run out?” Amber asked me in surprise. I would have never explained my feelings to her. She just had nothing to do with that, but I have also lost every intention of having sex with her.
“Amber, I’m really sorry, but I have something to do now. I will make sure my guys take you home.”
“What are you talking about? Are you serious?
I looked at her. She was angry.

“I’m serious. I’m sorry.” I took my phone, and I called one of my security guys, but she nearly hit my phone out of my
hand.
“I can go home by myself, but just to let you know, nobody can treat me like that.”
She shouted at me while fuming, then she turned around and she got into a taxi. I didn’t care at all. All I cared about was who I just saw. She was alive; she was well, and probably she indeed agreed to divorce. But she came to me, and she saw me with another. She was sad, and she ran away, Would she have been the same if I would have been alone? I asked myself, and I blamed myself. Maybe I could have her back today if I wasn’t that stupid. I could talk to her, and maybe she would have explained everything to me.
1 streamed loud ones while I gripped my hair. The surrounding people on the street jumped mary. They probably thought that I was mad, and actually I was, I fucked up again. There was only one thing that I knew. From then on 1 just wanted to find her, talk to her and get her back.

I opened my eyes at four am. I got used to my training schedule by now. I got out of bed and I went to the bathroom. I quickly got ready, as I had to be at the nink at half past four to have enough time to warm up, so I could be on the ice at five
Beth always expected me to be there in time, and a few times when I was late, she made sure I wouldn’t forget about the consequences.
Actually, I hated her just as much as 1 liked her. Even if I could tell her to fuck off and leave me alone sometimes, I knew she did everything to put me on the top of the podium at the olympics. And that was exactly what I wanted too.
Careth was better, but not much. Even if I met him in the gym or in the dance studio, it was hard to stand on my feet after hours of training.
After I was ready, I grabbed my car keys, then I ran down. When I stepped out of the door, Carlo greeted me, then he called their guys to let them know I was leaving. I nodded, but I hated they watched every single step of mine. A day ago I couldn’t hold my feelings back, and I complained to Riccardo about it. He said he understands me, and he knows it’s hard for me, but he also said I had to understand my safety comes first.
He told me they got to know Charles left L.A. somehow. Even if they tried hard to make sure he couldn’t enter the city, he could sneak in without their attention, so there was a slight possibility for him to return. I nearly argued with him, and finally he agreed to loosen the lace, and at least he promised me I would be watched from afar. I didn’t like that either, but I knew he wouldn’t leave me alone completely.
I got into the car, then I drove to the rink. When I looked around, I saw Riccardo’s cars. He kept his promise. There were three only.
I went inside and I started my morning routine. A few minutes before five, I stepped on the ice. Straight after, Beth appeared. She was apparently tired. so I hoped today she wouldn’t torture me too much,
“Morning Beth.” I skated to her.
“Morning Alice. Are you ready?”
“Yes, I’m.”

“Then just skate around and warm up. I got to show you something.”
Great. I thought, but I didn’t say a word. I did what she asked me. After a few jumps and spins, she motioned to me to go there. She got her laptop out.
“Okay Alice, me and Gareth analysed your Salchow, and we both think you should work on it.”
I frowned.
