Falling For The Girl I Bullied
Chapter 149

Kyle’s P.O.V.

“Will I be able to give my exams?” Violet asked me in a worried tone. I smiled and cupped her face. She was still not able to move her head properly, but she was better than earlier. “Yes, you can,” I answered her in a gentle tone. She pouted, but I could see worry in her eyes. “Both my mother and your mother have talked with the principal. He agreed to assign an aide to you from the junior class. He agreed, and also a teacher will come here to take your examination, and our principal will supervise this exam,” I told her what the school had decided with our parents. She raised her brows in surprise.

“Don’t you think that they are making so much effort?” she asked me in surprise and I shook my head negatively. “No, my love… they are just saving their reputation. You are one of the top ten students in our school, and after this incident, they needed to do something to save their a**es and this is the best way to do this,” I told the truth of their generosity. “Still this is too much,” she replied, and I just sighed while looking at her helplessly. Why she had to this native, and innocent?

“You sometimes made me so worried for you, princess,” I said to her in a worried tone. She smiled this time and leaned into my touch. “You are with me to take care of me now. Why do I need to worry now?” she said while looking at me lovingly. Her words made me speechless, and I just stroked her cheek with my thumb while looking at her lovingly. I was sitting on a stool beside her bed. I slowly stood up and moved towards her. She kept that smile on her face while looking at me. I slowly leaned down and pecked her lips gently. She had some bruises on her face too and now they were mostly healed. Still, I was scared that I would hurt her if I went near her.

She kissed me back in the same manner; I quickly moved my face up. My hand was still on his cheek. “I love you,” I whispered to her lovingly. “I love you too,” she replied back with a wide smile this time. I kissed the bridge of her nose lightly and moved my head up again. We both looked at each other lovingly for a while, before I sat back on the stool again. “You will shift to Ethan’s house after you get discharged from here, and I will go back to my home,” I told her, and she smiled widely while looking at me in surprise. “You are going back?” she asked me in a cheerful tone, and I smiled while nodding to her.

“Yeah… what will I do alone in your home, huh? I can’t stay there without you,” I said while shrinking my nose a little. Her smile instantly vanished, and I looked at her in worry. “What happened?” I asked her in a worried tone. She lowered her eyes while tilting her head a little in my palm. “I can’t leave my home empty. I have to go back to my home,” she answered me in a low tone. “Why?” I asked her in confusion. She took a deep breath and looked up at the roof. “My grandmother took her last breath in that house. I have so many good and bad memories there. I didn’t want to leave my grandparents’ house empty,” she answered me in a low and sad tone. I took my lower l*p in between my lips because I didn’t know what to say to comfort her right now.

“We can do one thing then,” I looked in the direction of the door when I heard Ethan’s voice. I saw Ethan, Noah, David, and Dustin coming inside the room. “Hey, Violet…. How are you feeling now?” David asked her in a cheerful tone and walked to the other side of the bed. “Hey, David… I am better,” she answered him in a light tone. My eyes followed David who went to the other side of the bed and lightly kissed her on her forehead, making me frown. Noah also followed him, and he also kissed her on the forehead after David. My face darkened immediately. They could k**s their girlfriends if they wanted to k**s a girl. Why did they have to k**s my girlfriend?

“You are really looking better,” Noah said to her with a smile before moving her upper body up. Ethan sat down beside her legs on the edge of the bed, and Dustin went to the other side and sat down beside her legs. “We can go there every day to study after school. The living room there is big enough to occupy all of us. What say?” Ethan proposed and asked in the end. This is a good idea. We all have mostly the same subjects. We can help each other in studies then,” David chirped, and I scowled. He was only looking for opportunities to stay with Violet. “Yeah.. this is a brilliant idea,” Noah also supported the idea.

I looked at Violet and saw a spark in her eyes. I sighed helplessly because I didn’t want to oppose it now. It would make her sad then. “So… it’s settled then. After these exams…. We will start group study at Violet’s home,” David clapped while chirping aloud. Violet looked at me this time. “What do you say?” she asked me in a low but hopeful tone. I smiled and stroked her cheek gently. “If you are okay with this, then I think we can do this,” I answered her, and a wide smile appeared on her lips. I slowly removed my hand from her cheek and looked at Ethan. He had a mischievous grin on his face. I knew that he was going to tease me later. David never admitted his love for Violet, but we could see it in his eyes.

“What are you going to give me as my birthday gift, huh?” Ethan asked Violet, and I look back at Violet. “It’s a surprise,” she grinned, and I raised my brows curiously this time. “Someone is helping you, right?” Noah chirped, and her grin went wide from ear to ear. She blinked to confirm him while smiling widely. Noah looked at me expectantly, and I shrugged my shoulders because I really didn’t have any idea who is helping her. He frowned and jerked his head backward. David sat down on the bed to the other side near her upper body. He was also looking at me in surprise. “What? I really don’t know,” I said to them, and Noah g*****d in frustration.

“Who is helping you?” Ethan asked Violet, and she smiled mysteriously this time. “You will know,” she replied to him with the same smile. Ethan looked at me questioningly and I was now really curious to know about this helper. “Okay… leave it… what do you want as your birthday gift?” Noah asked her, and I grimaced while glaring hard at him. Who called them here? I wanted to spend some more alone time with Violet, but they always came back. “I don’t need anything, Noah….your friendship is more precious than any other gift,” she answered him in a gentle tone.

“Who is helping you?” Ethan asked Violet, and she smiled mysteriously this time. “You will know,” she replied to him with the same smile. Ethan looked at me questioningly and I was now really curious to know about this helper. “Okay… leave it… what do you want as your birthday gift?” Noah asked her, and I grimaced while glaring hard at him. Who called them here? I wanted to spend some more alone time with Violet, but they always came back. “I don’t need anything, Noah….your friendship is more precious than any other gift,” she answered him in a gentle tone.

“Who is helping you?” Ethan asked Violet, and she smiled mysteriously this time. “You will know,” she replied to him with the same smile. Ethan looked at me questioningly and I was now really curious to know about this helper. “Okay… leave it… what do you want as your birthday gift?” Noah asked her, and I grimaced while glaring hard at him. Who called them here? I wanted to spend some more alone time with Violet, but they always came back. “I don’t need anything, Noah….your friendship is more precious than any other gift,” she answered him in a gentle tone.

“Okay… then I will choose the gift for you on my own, and you have to accept it,” Noah replied in a light tone. “But,” Violet protested immediately but Noah raised his hand in the air to stop her. “No, But, princess…. Just rest, and leave the rest on us,” Noah spoke further with a light smile on his lips. Violet looked at me for help but I shrugged my shoulder, indicating that I am with Noah on this. She sighed in defeat and looked back at Noah. “Okay,” she said in defeat, and Noah grinned from ear to ear. “What is going on with the case? Do they replace anything that can lead to the culprit?” she asked to Ethan this time.

“Aaahhh… stop thinking about depressing things, princess. You have more pressing issues to take care of,” David interrupted this time, and put his hand on her head. I looked at him with a calm gaze. He did the right thing because the doctor asked us not to tell her anything that could make her worry, or make her depressed. There was a lot going on in her case, and we knew her very well. She would start thinking about everything and it could be harmful to her. “What issues?” she narrowed her eyes while answering David with confused eyes.

“College admission,” he replied immediately. I was thankful to him for changing the topic because college admission was a more important matter for her than replaceing out the culprit. “O yeah… I forgot about that,” she said in an apologetic tone. “Are you still willing to pursue medicine?” Ethan asked her this time. “Nope… she is not,” Dustin replied this time with a grin. I c*cked my brows in confusion. I and Ethan were all the time with Violet. Then how on earth we didn’t know anything about her decision related to her future? She sighed and looked at me while pouting lightly. “I am really confused now,” she said and I looked at her questioningly. “What is going on, princess?” Ethan asked in a serious tone when I was about to ask him.

I shrank my nose annoyingly because all of them were now getting on my nerves. I took her hand in mine on the bed and took a deep breath. “Pursuing medicine is what my grandmother wanted for me. Dad and Mr. Knight asked me to pursue business, and Mr. Westfield ask me to think about pursuing law,” she told us, and I narrowed my eyes in confusion. “Mr. Westfield?” Ethan asked at the same time in a confused tone. “Yeah.. since when did they start having a say for you?” David also asked at the same time in a confused tone. Violet was still looking at me, and her grip on my fingers tightened. “I also want to know about this, Violet. I can understand Mr. Parker’s request, but I don’t think that my father or Mr. Westfield have any right to make a request to you,” I said in a calm but serious tone this time.

“Dad wants me to pursue business so that both I and Ethan can take over from him in the future. He said that I can be a great help to Ethan if he also wants to pursue politics in the future. Mr. Knight asked me because if you are pursuing your career in volleyball, who else will take care of his empire? If…. If (she hesitated, making me raise my brows at her in curiosity)…. If everything goes well between us… and… and we decide to …. To … to…(a sly smile appeared on my lips as she blushed harder)…. To marry in.. in the future then… the responsibility will surely fall on me,” she looked in the other direction while making some weird faces.

“And what about Mr. Westfield?” David asked her annoyingly this time. He enjoyed his jealousy. She looked at him and took a deep breath. “Liam is too young to take over his firm in a few years. So, he said that he wants me to pursue law so that I can help him in the future,” he answered him, and I huffed annoyingly this time. “Everyone has expectations from you. What exactly do you want for yourself, Violet?” Dustin asked her this time in a calm but serious tone. “I don’t know… I am really confused,” she answered him truthfully in a sad tone. Noah chuckled while shaking his head. We all looked in his direction. “Since when you started listening to others, huh?” he asked her, and I pursed my lips into a thin line.

“It’s not like that, Noah. None of them is pressuring me, but I don’t want to appear as a stubborn brat in front of them. I… I know that it’s not possible for me to fulfill everyone’s expectations, and I am also not willing to do this because I will lose myself in this way…. It’s just …. Just… all of them have this faith in me when none of them is b***d-related to me,” she answered him in a calm tone, but I could sense the sadness in her voice. I looked around, and their look was enough to tell that they also sensed her sadness. “It doesn’t matter if they are related to you by b***d, Violet. The thing is that they are trusting you over their own children. Both Ethan and Kyle are of the same age as yours. Still their parents want you to make yourself capable of taking over their family businesses instead of trusting their sons,” David tried to comfort her in a calm tone, but we all glared at him for belittling me and Ethan.

“I think she should rest now,” I said when I saw tiredness on her face. “No… I am okay,” she immediately protested while looking at me, giving me puppy eyes. “No.. my love… you are not okay. Exhaustion is not good for your health, and you are looking tired now,” I immediately replied to her in a light tone. “He is right, Violet. You are looking tired now,” Ethan supported me, making me smile. She pouted and looked at us annoyingly.

“But I am hungry,” she whispered while lowering her eyes. I bit my tongue when I remembered that she hadn’t had anything in the past two hours. She can now take light food but she got hungry very quickly after waking up. “I am going to buy some soup for you. You can’t eat something solid this time or else you will skip the dinner,” Ethan said while standing up. She frowned but she knew that she didn’t have any choice in this case. I raised my brows when Ethan signaled me to come with him. I didn’t want to leave her here with David but Ethan looked serious. “I am coming with you too,’ I said to Ethan and looked back at Violet. She looked at me curiously. I guess she saw the expression of his face too.

“You guys go…. We are here,” Noah said while standing up from the bed. I nodded to him and looked back at Violet. “I will be back soon,” I whispered to her. She blinked once, making me smile. I slowly put down her hand on the bed and stood up from the stool. Noah came near me and sat down on the stool. Both I and Ethan walked out of the room. I raised my brows when I saw two more guards standing out of the room. “What happened?” I asked him while walking away from the room with him. “The police have arrested Sia,” he answered me in a serious tone. “What?” I jerked my head in confusion while yelling a little in shock.

He glared at me and continued walking towards the elevator. I was with Violet all the time and that was why I didn’t have any updates on the kidnapping case. “Why did they do that? Did they replace something against her?” I asked him while stopping in front of the elevator. He didn’t answer me and waited for the elevator. I was really curious to know what was going on now. Mr. Westfield also came this morning but he didn’t tell me anything about this. I guess he didn’t want to say anything in front of Violet.

The door opened and we entered the elevator. Ethan took a deep breath when the door closed. “Tell me, Ethan…. What exactly going on?” I asked him again in a calm tone this time. “The investigators didn’t replace any evidence against Millie or Grace which can prove that they were the ones who planned this kidnapping. They checked their bank accounts too. They found a transaction of five million from Sia and her mother’s joint account. They are suspecting that Sia planned everything and pretended that she didn’t know anything. Dad and Mr. Westfield filed a complaint against her in the morning. Mr. Bishop is mad in anger, and dad is sure that he will approach Violet too. That’s why they sent two more guards here. You know Mr. Bishop. He will do anything to save his daughter,” he told me everything in a calm tone.

I narrowed my while processing what he told me. I still remembered Sia’s reaction until we found Violet. She was devastated and worried and I could say that her worry was genuine. I knew Sia for more than five years. I could say that she could to go to any extent if she wanted to hurt anyone, especially Violet. Still I didn’t want to believe that it was Sia who did everything. She would never do anything to hurt me. Her obsession towards me was toxic but I was not able to digest that she hired someone to hit me. They hit both me and Ethan so hard that we fainted after two blows. We still had a little pain in that area and the bump that we had hadn’t had subsidized yet.

“I am thinking the same thing, Kyle. I don’t know why but I …. I,” Ethan said and clicked his tongue while jerking his head a little. “Our parents are hiding something,” I said in a cold tone and he nodded. “Exactly…. When I asked mom, and Sam… they said that I should concentrate on my studies as exams are approaching. They asked me not to worry as they have got a hold on the situation now,” he replied to me, and I clenched my jaw this time. At first, someone is secretly helping Violet get the gift for Ethan, and now our parents were hiding something from us. “I don’t know why but I am having this feeling that… that Mr. Bishop is involved in this case. Think about what Violet asked. My father and Mr. Bishop are competitors for the same position. They are also arch-rivals in business. He was already upset with Violet and all of us due to that incident. He…. He,” Ethan got excited in the irritation in the end and paused because the door opened at the same time.

He took a deep breath and we exited the elevator. “We need to talk with the person in contact with Axel. We first need to replace out those kidnappers if we want to reach the main culprit,” I said to Ethan in a serious tone while walking towards the cafeteria of the hospital. “We are still high school students, Kyle, and that person belongs to the underworld. We are trying to replace out someone engaged in criminal activities. Do you think it will be safe for us?” Ethan asked me in a cautious tone. I chewed my internal cheeks while thinking about what to do now. “If our parents are not telling us anything then we have to replace out on our own, right?” I asked him while looking at him with raised brows. He sighed and nodded while pursing his lips. “Let’s give it a try first. I will call Axel first and will ask him to contact that person again. We can’t forget his situation with his father. We have to stay cautious with our every step,” I said further and he just hummed in response.
