How to Save a Life

by bexie25

Step one you say we need to talk, he walks you say sit down, it's just a talk. He smiles politely back at you. You stare politely right on through. Meeting on a bus, Edward and Bella are immediately attracted to each other but their gloomy, abuse-ridden pasts make them both hesitant to trust anyone. Follow them as Bella learns not only how to save a life, but hers is saved as well.

110. Chapter 109

"Surely, someone of your status in the world can do something, darling," Esme says to Carlisle, who's watching his son intently, anger in his eyes.

I am sure that I feel the same way.

"It would certainly help," I say carefully, looking at Edward. "Edward and I want to destroy him – we want him in financial and social status ruin. We want it so bad that his wife will leave him. We want him to have no power over Edward; it just weighs him down too much."

Carlisle sighs; it's a harsh, angry sound.

Edward whimpers, only slightly but it still hurts Carlisle; still hurts us all.

"I'm sorry," my Hoody whispers, looking down at his hands. They're shaking. "I'm sorry."

I know you are wondering why Edward didn't just go to his father and that, even if he was humiliated, he wouldn't have been fired... but you must think of what you would do in his shoes. The videos would have included his mother in the background, getting herself off to her husband beating him. He's supposed to look professional for his job.

Please just try to see it from his perspective.

With that said, please review.

:D
