Breaking Mr. Cold (Giselle and Donovan) novel Chapter 785

The second Chris answered, Giselle lowered her voice and coldly demanded, "Where are you?"

"At work," came the equally low reply.

"What do you mean? Why haven't you left yet? When exactly are you leaving?"

Chris fell silent for a few seconds before saying, "We'll talk later." Then, he hung up on her.

Giselle became furious when she heard the resounding click before collapsing against the couch, her mind spiraling once more.

She wasn't worried about her own safety. If anything, she'd been worrying about Donovan.

She had witnessed Orin's cruelty and bloodshed with her own eyes and knew full well just what he was capable of; she knew that he could easily eliminate Donovan if he really wanted to.

Her grip on her phone tightened. She had considered calling the cops on him.

Yet, what was she supposed to say once she did? His current identity was that of a foreign citizen. Even if he'd committed crimes in the past, he had done them on foreign soil. So, how could the local police get involved?

Besides, he hadn't committed any crimes here, and his entry documents for Valanthea were legal. Donovan had even pulled strings to help him obtain a work visa valid for several years.

Thus, the most the police would do was investigate him and deport him upon discovering the crimes he'd committed on foreign soil. Still, it would undoubtedly be a lengthy investigation, and she'd likely need to waddle all the way to the precinct for questioning.

That was why she couldn't come to a decision.

She even considered discussing it with Gideon.

However, she was immediately reminded of Gideon's hair-trigger temper and his current relationship troubles with Marselle. She had no one else to confide in because she also didn't want to bother others with something like this.
