The Billionaire's Daughter
Chapter 28: Crazy
Franco
When the security team arrived at the hotel suite, I explained Romano’s motives. They didn’t believe me at first since it was their comrade I was accusing of kidnapping but after showing them the box with his handwriting, they believed me. One of the guards identified also the gift wrapper as something he saw from Romano’s things.
“He is deliriously obsessed with Saphira. From the moment I met him, I always sensed something bad from him. He was different whenever Saphira is near. He looks at her differently, as if he was eyeing a prey or dinner. I always feel the need to guard her away from Romano.”
“Have you told Saphira about what you observed?”
“Yes Rob, I did. But she wouldn’t hear about it. She said he was only doing his job and watching her was his job as security. She also told me that at one time they were close like they were friends. But then when she left for vacation last year, when she came back, he was different, like he was never her friend before.”
“What could have happened to trigger this craziness?”
“Maybe he was crazy to begin with. I don’t know, but I have this feeling that he took her. He may be planning this for some time now. He was the one sending all those gifts based on the wrappers and the handwriting for the notes. No wonder he can sneak in untraced, he knows her schedule and he can approach her anytime he wants.”
“I remember when Saphira and I have our nightly dinners, he always look at me with so much contempt and hatred. I thought it was only my imagination or I was just thinking too much, but now I realized, he was being territorial. But why, Saphira was never his to begin with.”
I almost lost my train of thought when I heard Rob admit that Saphira and him were having “nightly dinners”. Wait, was that a date or what?
“Franco? Were you listening?”
Ah. Yes. What was that

moment I was introduced to her as one of her personal guards, I was mesmerized by her charm and beauty. She was always polite and kind to me. There was one time we became close as friends can be. She shares her food and during the drive to and from school she always asks me some questions about my life and well being. Never did she treat
