JASMINE’S POV
"Keith, we need him to talk, and he can only do that if he’s conscious," I told him to get off.
I looked down at the bloody mess, which was Edward on the floor in horror, as I pushed Keith away from Edward. Keith then stood up, his eyes meeting mine.
I stared at Keith as his eyes went from my eyes to scan my body. In particular, he was fixated on my collarbone and shoulders. I noticed he looked at my collarbone before he attacked Edward earlier as well.
Edward only held for about a minute, and I saved myself, so why was he that pressed?
"Keith, I’m fine," I reiterated in a gentle voice, but I was annoyed in reality.
In his eyes, I saw pure rage, and I felt a little unsettled. Keith was beyond volatile. I wish I could say it was just because he was tired since we had both been hardly sleeping lately or something.
The scenario reminded me of the time he fought with Louis at the Boxing gym. He had also continued beating down on Louis until I forced him off.
I never knew Keith to be a particularly angry or violent person these past 9 years. This was a completely new Keith to me. Obsessive, angry, violent. One I couldn’t quite predict his next actions. Even the part of him that was kind and loving with me. The Keith I knew never saw me romantically. The only part of him that remained that I could recall was his self-righteousness and controlling-ness, I guess.
Perhaps he was always like this, but was never in a situation for that to come out. I suppose everything had been pretty much smooth sailing before then.
The bodyguards then picked Edward up from the floor.
"The entire floor is on lockdown. Take him to a nearby empty office and have him watched from there," Keith ordered the bodyguards. "Have the nurse attend to him. As soon as he wakes up, tell me so I can reinterrogate him."
I watched with concern as the two bodyguards carried him off. I certainly hoped Edward would wake up.
Another one of the bodyguards brought Keith some wet wipes and he wiped the blood off his hands. My eyes looked at them in concern.
"Sorry, you had to see that," he told me.
"Just don’t scare me like that," I told him I was more concerned about if we were going to get out of Edward since he was unconscious.
"I want his phone searched," Keith said.
The bodyguards took out Edwards’ phone from his trouser pocket. Using Edwards’ finger, they unlocked it
Keith immediately began to go through it. "See if I can find any suspicious texts, messages, or anything that might be related to Tony," he said.
We then went to Edward’s office to see what evidence the men searching it had found. Upon entering, we found a small group of bodyguards going through his office and sorting through documents.
"Not much, sir," the first aide said. "Most of the documents are normal work documents."
