Besotted novel Chapter 54

Caleb Pov

As soon as we landed, we were met with Mr. Jaques, a senior officer of the Paris Police team. Nathan talked to him letting him know every detail and soon we got in the action as they used Sang's social media to relocate and check into a place near to us.

The plan was to wait and catch her while she comes to find Sang. As much as we were ready to go into action, we were also a little bit in a dilemma if she would take the bait and come find Sang. She has been smart and has killed so many people that it left us wondering if she could be dumb enough to fall in our trap.

Our plan was sudden and no matter what we were ready to sprint to action.

The officers told me that it would be better if I stayed back. They didn't want any casualty for the one they were trying to catch was a wicked and dangerous one but I chose to go as I wanted to catch her with my very own hands and make her pay for everything she did.

Finally, we reached the spot and cameras were attached and cars with cameras were parked right near to the spot. The officers didn't wish any civilian to get hurt and it was how we chose a place away from the city. It was a diner and we informed the owner about our plans. He was cooperative and only the officers dressed as civilians were present in the motel.

Sang's social media sites were used to post some food pictures and check-ins for live location and a post was updated which gave indirect message that she was going to spend some time at the same place for two days. As it was done, we could only wait. It was only a two hours drive out of the town from Paris and we expected if she was here, she would definitely not leave this opportunity.

We could only wait.

I was inside the car, waiting anxiously with an officer beside me as he kept on glancing towards every direction. He was brilliantly cautious and I noticed as the officers dressed in civilians played their role well as they behaved like normal people eating food and chatting to each other but at the same time remaining cautious enough to mark each car that went past the diner.

There was one car that went past the diner various times as if it wanted to see what's going on and immediately it got our action. The car slowed down near the diner and a lady officer disguised as Sang knowingly walked here and there in the diner. The sleek black car seemed to slow down right before the diner, but all of a sudden, it took a right turn and made a U-turn as it drove away.

The officers looked back and forth hastily if there was any other car nearby but found none. Again an hour went by and the same black sleek car returned back. The officer next to me informed this to the officers inside the diner and they gave the car their full attention as we watched a man got out of the car with black sunglasses on and made his way inside.

He was tall and well built, and his attire matched the one of a bodyguard. He went directly inside and went past the officer who was disguised as Sang. In that moment, we thought he was someone else not after Sang and we plopped back on our seat looking elsewhere when all of a sudden the man came back and before we knew it he put his hand inside his pant pockets and pulled a gun out and before our very own eyes shoot the lady officer right on her chest.

There was loud bang shot and the owner of the diner screamed as she tucked down under the desk and the officers got up with their guns and the man ran out leaving the lady officer on the ground who got up seeming perfectly fine and tore the dress revealing her bulletproof jacket as she pulled her wig out and together they ran after that man who ran towards his car as it immediately took a turn and he entered.

"Hang tight!" the officer next to me said and I looked back at Nathan who held the roof handles as the officer ignited the engine and immediately followed the black car and the officers from the diner got their own car as they followed us.

Never in my life, had I ever thought of something like this. A car chase with police siren on as we had our eyes fixated on the one before us. The black car before us took a turn and then we saw a slight glimpse of a woman.

"Do you think that's the woman?" the officer asked and as we took a turn behind the speeding car.

"Definitely yes," I said as I got another glimpse of the woman and immediately recognized her face matching the sketch drawing and the picture Sang has.

The officer contacted his team and told them to go separate ways and try to get before the car from the next road to block it and as the car before us was not even slowing down he asked to inform the traffic police to look over the people on the road.

"That bastard!" the officer cursed under his breath as we saw the car nearly missing a collide with another car which had kids in it.

"Reporting the vehicle number to the traffic control department, the car is a black Mustang and is swerving around other cars, and is above a hundred miles per hour, breaking the speed laws. Female Culprit inside the car with a driver and a man who shoot our female officer. They are heading North to Calais," the officer informed the traffic control and soon the real chase begun as he sped the car nearly reaching the car.

"Watch out!" Nathan screamed as the car before hit the side of the truck and immediately turned. The officer put his feet on the brakes and debris from the car fell on our car breaking the windshield into pieces and I used my arms to shield my face but something hit my head and I could feel the immense pain I felt as something wet trickled down my face.

Instantly, I groaned and touched my head to find blood oozing out. I looked to my side to find the officer hurt and Nathan was groaning. Because of the hit, the car remained in its position as we took some time to recover from the impact.

There was another car turned upside down probably because Giselle's car hit that car and the driver from that got out injured as he crawled to the side of the road and leaned next to the pavement. It was a chaotic situation. He looked hurt as well, scratches and bruises all over the middle-aged man.

But all of a sudden the door of the driver's seat of the Mustang opened and the driver was thrown out of the car. He whimpered all bloodied and we watched as the man who shot our officer moving into the driver seat.

No matter how hurt the officer next to me was, still he got out and pulled his gun out as he shot at the black Mustang who ignited the engine as the half-torn car produced a weird sound but still it was able to move. The officer shot three bullets but the car didn't stop as it turned around and wanting to leave but the police cars came from the other side as it stopped right before it disabling it to move past and it was stuck.

"Get out the car!" the officer yelled at the people in the black car and immediately both Nathan and I got out of our wanting to see. There were other police cars which came to our aid as it stopped right next to us. Giselle was stuck in the middle with nowhere out.

A few of the officers ran to the bloodied injured but still alive man in the ground and got hold of him as they dragged him out of the scene. Some helped the guy near the pavement and took him away from the scene.

Now, only Giselle and the man was inside the car.

"Get out within ten seconds or we will shoot!" the officer warned and as the other officers circled the car with guns in their hand, the situation grew tense as nobody got out.

"On the count of ten, one.." the officer began and I held the door tightly as I looked at the black hoping them to get out or Sang would never be able to confront her culprit for killing her parents. There would be no meaning left if Giselle died on the spot because there would be no punishment left to give her. And death was such a simple punishment.

I wanted her to rot in hell. She has lived her life lavishly without anyone ever finding of her. She killed so many people and she needed to get punishment for it. She should rot in jail.

"Seven!"

"Fucking get out of the damn car!" Nathan hissed.

"Eight!"

The door opened and the man came out with a gun in his hand.

"Throw the weapon!" the officer yelled at him and he raised his hand throwing the gun. He seemed to be hurt as well as there was blood in his body.

"Slowly walk to us," the officer said and the man obliged slowly walking towards us and immediately a group of officers lunged at him and tackled him to the ground handcuffing his hand.

"Get out of the car!" the officer warned and nodded at one of the officers who sneaked towards the car and immediately opened the door and pointed his gun inside. He used his hand and pulled someone out and we watched as finally, the woman dressed in a pink jacket and black boots got out removing her sunglasses.

Her head was bleeding but she didn't seem to mind it.

A lady officer whom I recognized as the same officer who disguised herself as Sang, ran to her and held hand as they handcuffed her hand.

Nathan lunged at me to congratulate me as I smiled realizing we had finally caught the one. The woman who destroyed our lives and so many people lives. Giselle was right before us, arrested and I heard Nathan laughing.

"Quick! show this to Sangavi," he said and I realized I should at least let Sang see this. Immediately feeling out of the world with happiness, I began wondering how Sang would react when she sees this. Her biggest dream got true and as face-timed her waiting with anticipation for her to pick up, I looked back at Giselle who was held back by the officers and our eyes met.

There was something in her eyes that I could quite put my finger on. It looked as if she knew me, she recognizes me, there was something evil in her eyes and I felt as if she gave me a smirk, a knowing smirk which got me worried and with anticipation, I waited for Sang to pick up my call and finally she did.

I exhaled out a breath, I didn't know that I was holding as I saw her face. She smiled at me and I heard her talk. "Did you reach there on time?" she asked and I realized I didn't even get the time to call her since the time I got back to France.

I turned the camera and made her see the place and the situation. I was pretty sure, she would get it immediately.

It took her some time, as she looked at the scene and the police vans and she gasped as I made her see the upside turned car. But then it was the best part as I turned the phone camera towards Giselle who was made to walk towards the police van with her hands handcuffed.

"You got her?" she screamed and I laughed with victory.

Nathan popped out of nowhere and gave a victory sign while Sang gasped.

"What the hell happened?" she yelled and I glared at Nathan for not thinking of it before popping before her with that blood on his face.

"Caleb! Let me see your face," she demanded.

And as I had thought she behaved the same as she panicked and began screaming at me.

"You promised!"

"You fucking promised!" she cried and all I could do was laugh at her wanting to assure her that everything was perfectly fine. I recognized that she was in my building elevator probably heading back to my penthouse.

"It's over now baby! It's over! Get here! Don't you want to confront her?" I told her and she kept her mouth shut but finally nodded.

As I was getting ready to tell her that she needs to get to France I saw her face as she was looking at someone as she whispered. "Hailey."

"You have got my mother there, I will get your girlfriend here, Mr. Caleb Theller," I heard a familiar voice and before I could speak up the camera got blurry and frantically I called for Sang's name as someone picked up the phone and I realized the person was no other but Hailey.

"What the-"

"Guess what?" she said as she smirked at me and then turned the camera and immediately blood drained from my face as I saw Sang on the ground unconscious, with a man standing next to her.

"Your girlfriend is going to entertain me for some time until you give my mother back," she said and the call was cut. Nathan looked at me as if he was about to pass out, disturbed with what he just saw.

Then it hit me, as I looked back at Giselle who was still looking at me from the car's window with a smirk on her face.

She outplayed me.

She outplayed everyone.

She had planned this from the very beginning.

She eventually succeeded in getting Sangavi.

She fucking made us feel that we were actually getting her but in reality, she was the one who got us.

She is going to kill Sang.

All this while, Hailey was with me and I didn't even know that she is feigning her identity.

"That famous celeb is Giselle's daughter?" Nathan asked dumbfounded.

"But how can that be? She is Mr. Davies daughter right?" he said and pulled his hair as I gritted my teeth in aggravation.

"Open your mouth and tell us everything. Where is Ms. Sangavi Carter and how are you related to Hailey Davies?" the Senior officer asked as I stood behind the glass pane listening to their conversation. She was being interrogated and the time was ticking but all she did was keep her mouth shut as she shrugged to the officer's question.

"I don't know what you are even talking about officer. Who is Sangavi Carter? Who is Hailey Davier? I know neither one of them. And I am Talia Morrison. I understand that my face matches the sketch you have there but that doesn't mean I am the one. You have got the wrong person officer and mind you I will sue you!" she said and I moved from my place wanting to get inside the interrogating room and choke the lady but Nathan stopped me.

"This ain't a movie, where you can just create stories. We have gotten your whole life history with us and we know very well who you are and what horrendous activities you have done. So, it will better for you to confess everything right now,"
