Bedmates Soulmates novel Chapter 582

He was bending down and peering into the car. 

Gideon rolled down his side of the window. ‘What’s wrong, officer?‘ 

‘The light has changed. Your car’s blocking traffic.‘ 

‘Sorry, I didn’t notice. I’ll move right away.‘ 

‘Officer, help!‘ Kira lunged at Gideon and threw herself at the window. ‘He’s keeping me prisoner!‘ 

Gideon pushed her back into her seat. ‘Stop messing around.‘ 

He turned to the officer. ‘Sorry, my girlfriend is just mad at me.‘ 

Kira shouted frantically. ‘I’m not his girlfriend! He’s kidnapping me!‘ 

The officer glanced at Kira, then back at Gideon. ‘What’s going on?‘ 

‘He won’t let me out of the car!‘ 

‘Don’t mind her. She’s just throwing another one of her hissy fits.‘ 

Kira was panic–stricken. 

She couldn’t let this opportunity slip through her fingers.

‘I’m not his girlfriend! I swear! I just want to get out of the car!‘ Kira shouted. 

Behind the BMW, cars honked loudly. 

The officer grew impatient. ‘Open the door and let her out.‘ 

Gideon gripped the steering wheel. ‘Office, this is really none of your-‘ 

‘I don’t care. Just let her out of the car, now!‘ The officer reached for the baton on his belt. 

Gideon sucked in a deep breath. 

Then he tapped a button on the electronic dashboard. 

Kira heard the thunk and pushed the door open. 

She could finally breathe. 

‘Kira, get back here!‘ 

‘Hey, lady! Don’t run into traffic!‘ 

Kira didn’t hear either of them. 

She spotted an idling taxi by the side of the road and sprinted to it. 

She yanked the passenger side door open and said to the driver breathlessly, “The M Group headquarters, please!‘ 

The driver raised an eyebrow, but in the end, he said nothing and started the car. 

Only then did Kira relax. 

She slumped in the seat and searched all her pockets. 

Her phone was gone. 

All she had on her were two ten–dollar notes. 

Luckily, it was enough to pay the taxi fare. 

She jumped out of the taxi before it stopped completely. 

But she was held up at the front desk. 

‘I’m sorry, miss, you can’t go in without an appointment.‘ The receptionist didn’t recognise the former intern. 

She was professional, courteous but firm. 

No one got to see the president without an appointment. 

‘There’s a secretary on the forty–eighth floor. Her name’s A…Andrea something. Call her. She knows me!‘ 

Kira’s mind was a mess. 

Gideon’s words kept ringing in her ears. 

She knew she shouldn’t believe him, but she couldn’t help the feeling of dread rising in her chest. 

Her heart was still pounding from that terrifying encounter. 

The receptionist looked sceptical, but she called Andrea anyway. 

The secretary came down five minutes later. 

She recognised Kira as the woman who kept showing up at the office a week ago and demanding to see the president. 

‘Miss, Mr McCarthy’s engaged at the moment. If you don’t have an appointment, you can leave a message. I’ll be sure to pass it along.‘ 

Andrea just got called on the carpet twenty minutes ago, after she failed to gatekeep earlier in the afternoon.
