784 Gavin's story II
Nathan had no idea that his small mistake had actually unleashed a monster. He had always felt very grateful and guilty towards Gavin because of what had happened in the past. So after finding out about his illness, he felt even more guilty and sad for him which forced him to help him out every time something went wrong.
"I kept helping him with a hope that someday he would change but that never happened. Completely opposite to what I had thought, he kept creating trouble carelessly because he knew that I would help him out."
"Gavin was a doctor in the States so what was his reason behind coming to country S and practising here? Did you send him here?" Zian curiously inquired. He always had a very strong feeling that Gavin was here for a reason and he wanted to know what it was.
Keeping quiet for quite some time, Nathan shook his head, "No I didn't, in fact I insisted on him not leaving the States because it's more convenient there for me to keep a close eye on him. He was the one who wanted to come to country S for Dr Zhang."
Zian frowned and fumed, "What? Why would he come here for Mian?"
Placing her hand on his shoulder, Mian gestured him to stay calm. This wasn't the right time to lose their cool and do something outrageous, they had to come up with a great plan to get their hands on the psychopath.
"I don't know the exact thing but Gavin met Dr Zhang in a seminar a few months ago and since then, he has been obsessed with her. I thought that his obsession would fade away with time but when he told me that he wanted to go to country S and continue practising there, I knew that he was still into her. When I tried to talk to him about it, he told me that he was already over it so I just shrugged it off," Nathan explained.
Pinching her brows, Mian tried to remecise where and when she had met Gavin in the past but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remember a thing. "I don't remember meeting him in the past."
?Maybe it was just a casual encounter and nothing important but it was surely a big deal for that crazy doctor," Ashton explained.
Keeping quiet for quite some time, Nathan continued, "I thought shifting to a new country would also refresh his mind but I was wrong, Gavin started doing even more weird things. I warned him but he didn't listen to me so I broke all my ties with him. We are not in proper talking terms for months now, I completely stop bothering with him. Since my wife is pregnant, I decided to focus on something that is more important and worth saving."
"If you stopped bothering with him then what are you doing here and how did you find out that Gavin is responsible for all of this?"
Pausing for s while, he continued, "All the women who were killed were pregnant single women just like—"
Cutting him off, Mian muttered, "Just like Gavin's mother."
Nathan nodded his head and added, "Yes, his mother abandoning him when he was small and the sudden killing of single pregnant women is too obvious for anyone to guess why he is doing this."
Keep quiet for quite some time, Yinhai asked, "What about the fetus then? Why is he taking them out?"
Pinching his brows, he shook his head, "I have no idea, my men just saw him enter and exit the dumping ground where the woman was found."
"We will start a search warrant for Dr Gavin but while we do that, everyone should be careful especially Dr Zhang and you Mr Nathan. If he is really mentally unsound then he can do anything," The police officer suggested before walking out of tth hospital along with his team.
After the officers left, Zian snapped, "See, I told you that he is upto no good but you kept saying that I am just jealous."
Taking a deep breath, Mian sighed, "Yes Zian, your man instincts were on point." Turning towards Nathan, she added, "You should be careful, I am sure he will try to harm you."
"You should be careful, he is after you Dr Zhang and in a very crazy way."
"I still cannot believe that guy is a renowned doctor," Ashton muttered, he was having a really hard time accepting the truth.
"Serial killer's have very sharp minds, why do you think it's always so difficult to track them down?" Zian pointed out.

Packing their bag, Mian sighed, "I cannot believe the killer was someone I see almost everyday." When Zian did not say anything, she inquired, "What happened? You seem so lost."
"How is a man supposed to react after he finds out that a serial killer actually fancies his woman? Do you want me to dance in joy and behave like nothing's wrong?" The initial hatred he had for Gavin doubled or may be tripled after learning the truth. Gavin was a dangerous man and he was worried that the crazy man would harm Mian.
Sitting beside him, she tried to calm him down. "We already know the truth so all we have to do now is be careful."
"You don't understand Mian that man is nowhere to be found,?he is missing and what do you think? What are the odds of him coming after you?" Without waiting for her reply, he snapped, "All odds."
Wrapping hair around his waist, she explained, "I know that you worried about me but I don't want you to stress over when we have such a big day coming up. The police are looking for him and I am sure that he will get caught very soon. So please, can you not think about it for some time and enjoy it? It's our wedding, how can you be so grumpy?"
"Not being grumpy but I am worried," he frowned.
"Don't stress over it, everything is going to be okay."
