chapter 25

                        At the same time Aiden's motive was already determined. He had decided to run away from that place. So, he grabbed Elley's silver chain and pendent as well as other evidences and pushed Elley on Brian.                        She got imbalanced and started falling down but Brian caught her in his arms. At the same time Aiden ran towards the main outdoor but suddenly Luna entered in the house with cops and he got scared, so stood on the spot.                         Elley and Brian also reached at hall. Lucifer also followed them. Then Elley told the cops Aiden's reality and requested them to arrest Aiden. As soon as they acknowledged the truth, they took him in custody and put him in handcuffs as well as they seized evidences.                        Then they asked some questions and took statement from Elley and Brian. They also took the damaged camera on demand to investigate other things. Later they went.                         When everyone went excluding Luna then Brian showed his gratitude to her through his decent eyes. Elley was also thankful to Luna. So, she smiled and said sincerely, " Thank you so much Luna for coming on perfect time. If you wouldn't come early so that bastard could escape. Thank you for being there for me. Your entry was perfect. "" Please, Ms. Elley, don't say that. I did nothing special. In fact, you should say thanks to your best friend. He sent me message and here's location.                         He mentioned in brief to come here with cops. Obviously I followed his instructions. Hence I can't take any credit. " Luna replied and carried a sweet smile.                         Elley looked at Brian prudently. She was full of emotions. Her eyes was filled with tears. She went to him and took his hand in her hands. Then she said to him, " Thank you so much Brian. Thank you for being with me. Thank you for protecting me. Thank you for taking care of me. Thank you for never leaving me alone. Thank you for believing me. Thank you for standing by my side. Thank you for everything. "" Oh come-on! Stop crying. I hate these tears. Do you want to hear a joke? Tell me? " Brian got emotional but hid his tears and started tickling her to make her smile. As soon as she heard about Brian's joke she said, " No! Your pathetic joke will definitely kill me. So stop it. " " Okay but on one condition. You have to smile and it has to be real smile not fake one. " Brian said with authority. " Hmm. " Elley affirmed and smiled.                         Then again Brian started tickling her so she started laughing. When he saw her smile he felt satisfaction. He also started smiling while looking at her.                         After some time Elley hugged him tightly and showed her gratitude without saying anything. Of course he understood everything and started caressing her hairs. Meanwhile when she felt better, she quickly went to her room.                         Brian had made her comfortable and very calm nevertheless it seemed like she was totally disturbed. Aiden's reality did hurt her a lot. So, that day she didn't eat meal and locked herself in the room.                         When Brian saw Elley's dull face he also turned into sad. That day Brian and Luna took leave and didn't go back to work because they had Elley's responsibility.                         In evening, Brian and Luna was talking about Elley. They acknowledged her pain. They were having more conversation but all of a sudden Lucifer came to them and he grabbed Brian's cloth in his mouth and forcefully tried to take him somewhere.
