Villain

Camilla became silent after waking up, Chris had gone straight to the hospital the moment they landed. Camilla moved away the moment the doctor approached to clean and bandage her wounds.

"I need to clean them so they would heal fast and prevent infection," he said in a calm voice.

Camilla shook her head and moved further away from him. Chris sighed and moved closer, "Love, let him clean them so where can go home "

Camilla looked up and shook her head, Chris felt something hurt when he saw tears in her eyes. But she had to get treated or the wound get worse. He sat next to her and hugged her.

"Then can I do it instead?" he asked.

She nodded. He smiled and turned to the doctor who gave up.

The nurse passed Chris a pair of gloves then the doctor passed the things needed to clean her wounds.

She was silent as her eyes stayed glued to his face and merely flinched a little when it hurt. After he bandages the wounds Chris got up carried her, thanked the doctor then walked out.

She spent days in bed under his care, he seemed to not allow her to do anything but rest, eat and take her meds. Ray came sometimes and visited her apologizing for not recognizing her, then they would spend time talking with Chris in the living room.

It was four days now, and he had not left her side. She asked about work & he claimed he was now working from home.

Her phone and laptop were confiscated by him too saying he only wanted her to rest.

She woke up in the middle of the night and watched him sleep. He had been trying so hard to make her feel better but something felt off. It was like he was hiding something from her.

Camilla moved to where he had placed their phones and picked hers up then walked to the living room. Her wounds had not healed yet but stopped bleeding two days back.

She noticed her name to be the headliner of every news website.

She scrolled reading through, her heart was beating so fast she could hear the sound.

"Famous Chef and Successful billionaire, Camilla Smith and Chris Huntsman made the headlines again when the famous chef and claimed girlfriend of the billionaire was kidnapped by one of his admirers. But what made it more extraordinary was that this admirer had to change her face to match Miss. Camilla ".

Camilla felt her insides chime as she continued to read. It was like the woman's company and family were claiming that this was all a lie made up by Camilla to gain the spotlight again so she could corner Chris for herself and that Samantha was one of her admirers who went as far as looking like her idol just to get close to her.

" So am the bad guy now?" she murmured.

She sighed, it wasn't that she didn't know Samantha existed cause Chris's mother had warned her about her before her accident in the past. She had wanted to tell Chris about it but kept pushing it aside. Camilla had thought that maybe if Samantha saw how she and Chris were then she would give up...but she was wrong. The woman just changed her face to hers and stole her place, locking her up somewhere as she waited to be transported somewhere Chris would never find her.

She laughed, did she think replacing her was that easy. Ray might have failed since he suspected nothing but her parents, staff at work but especially Chris would have noticed.

"And he did " she turned to gaze at the bedroom door where he was sleeping.

This woman was now using the public and her company's influence to threaten Chris but also tarnish her name.

"It's time you got to know your place " Camilla turned to her phone starting at her bruised face Samantha in the video as she was being transferred by the police. Her eyes were full of tears that made Camilla laugh.

"You know how to play the victim, but I can do better than that " Camilla was still watching when a voice called her name.

"Camilla, Camilla " Chris called.

"Living room," she said.

He walked in and saw her holding her phone with a smile on her face. He immediately ran to her side.

"Don't mind what they are saying and let me handle it " he said holding her hand.

"I don't like it when you hide things from me, but I hate it when they hurt you more " she kissed the tip of his nose.

Chris breathed, "I can deal with it, trust me "

"I do, so trust me too and let me help you with this," she said.

He stared into her eyes and smiled, "You know I love you right?"

She nodded with a giggle, "Let's deal with this bitch first "
