Chapter 25 Xander's Gentleness Towards Isabel

Oh no!

They got me!

Isabel was frantically trying to break free.

"It's me." A deep voice soothed her panic.

At those words, Isabel ceased her struggles, her frantic heartbeat slowly calming as she looked up at the man holding her. The irritation from the spray caused her eyes to water heavily, and as she blinked through the pain, tears streamed down her cheeks... Each tear traced a path down her face, falling onto his hand and deeply stirring his emotions.

"Don't cry," Xander murmured, his fingertips gently brushing away her tears.

"Huh? I'm not crying," Isabel said, slightly dazed.

Xander's heart ached more at her brave facade.

"I'm sorry I got here late," he murmured as he pulled her into a gentle embrace.

Tiffany watched, seething with envy and rage, her eyes nearly bursting with fury.

Leo, having subdued the threat, turned to Xander. "Boss, what should we do with them?"

"What do you think we should do?" Xander deferred to Isabel.

"Let's hand them over to the police. They should be locked away for a good long while so they can't hurt anyone else," Isabel suggested.

Simple, yet firm. Xander agreed internally, despite his own deeper anger.

"Let's get you to the car," he said, supporting Isabel as they walked past the downed men. His foot "accidentally" crushed the hands of the men on the ground, eliciting a chorus of pained howls. "What happened?" Isabel paused, turning to him.

"Just stepped on something." Xander responded nonchalantly.

Leo, who had seen the man reaching towards Isabel earlier, appreciated his boss's subtle revenge.

After ensuring the men were taken to the police station Leo returned to the car and drove off.
