[Orlando Family's Sole Heir Awakening.]Maya read the news with slightly furrowed brows. It was not the content of the news that annoyed her this time. But the comments, really annoyed Maya when the girl read them one by one.When Evan got sick, everyone judged their love story in a relatively negative way. Some think Maya only married for Evan's wealth. While others, feel sorry that Maya has to marry a dying man like Evan. Only few people who's sincerely wish for their happiness. But when news of Evan's recovery had spread, people seemed to be competing to delete their previous comments and start praising them as the happiest couple on earth. Some even claimed to know her or Evan, and praised their compatibility, even though Maya didn't actually know that people.Now Maya knew why Evan had been so isolated from the outside world all this time. In a time when Evan was at his worst, the man knew that no one was willing to help him except those who were sincere to him. People, who laugh
When the time came, Maya went to the premiere with Evan and a driver. Because they had to get ready before Evan's work time over, Kevin was forced to not be able to accompany them to complete the task left by Evan. Seeing Kevin working hard, Maya subconsciously felt sorry for him and started joking that Evan should give Kevin an appreciation for what the man had done for them all this time. But unexpectedly, Evan actually nodded in response to her words. Only when they were in the car, Evan finally open his mouth about the meaning of his nod.“I plan to transfer twenty-five percent of my family's wealth under his name. I really want to give more. But given his personality, he'd be upset if I gave him too much. I haven't talked about transferring this wealth to him. Do you mind if I do, Maya?”With the business and assets that Evan owns, twenty-five percent is enough for Kevin to spend the rest of his life in luxury without needing to work again. Maya satisfactorily shook her head. “He
After being reassured by Evan, Maya's mood improved so much that the girl didn't mind responding to people's greetings. Throughout the event, Maya smiled, spreading a positive aura which also affected Evan, who was initially a little annoyed by the gossiping girls. Under Maya's amusement, Evan finally had a more friendly face as they entered the cinema room while holding hands. The two of them sat on the bench that had been prepared. Evan rubbed Maya's hand lightly, as he whispered to the girl in a worried tone.“You can let me know whenever you sense that this movie is starting to make you uncomfortable. Remember, your happiness is my priority right now.”Maya smiled as she returned her husband's whisper. “I see. Thank you, Evan,” she said sincerely. Evan nodded in response to his wife's words. His face was very gentle, as he looked at his wife's face with great affection.After all the guests entered the room, the atmosphere gradually calmed down as the lights finally turned off. Wit
The sound of cars echoed in the middle of the city that had been abandoned for many years ago. The car, which was almost entirely covered with a strong steel, drove fast on the deserted streets that cut through the previously urban city. A woman quietly plays orchestra music in her car. Her eyes surveyed the dead city with a bored look. It is only been five years since they entered an era where zombies are invading almost every place on earth. But cities around the world, all of them already turned into dead cities like the city where she went today.Exactly five years ago, an unknown meteor suddenly fell to the earth and almost destroyed half of one continent on earth. The meteor approached the earth at an unreasonable speed, as if to tell the world that the end of the world had come at that time. No human being can prevent the meteor from falling to the earth. They have tried everything. But eventually, the humans remained helpless as they watched with faces full of terror as the met
For some unknown reason, the dead city that was usually filled with zombies looked really like a deserted dead city these days. Along the way alone, the woman could not find the zombies that frequently wandered around the streets or houses. It seems other volunteers have also started gossiping about the same thing recently. Some began to assume that the zombies were finally exhausted under the persistent struggle of humans. But the woman was sure that was not the main reason the zombies had disappeared now. There were many of them, and it seemed impossible for them to just disappear like a thin air. The woman felt a little uneasy, as she began to walk through the deserted mall cautiously.Her main destination is the supermarket, which is located on the first floor of the mall. The woman took whatever that was still usable and edible from inside the supermarket. Her feelings got worse when she could not find a single zombie again, in the place that often became the nest of the zombies.
Maya looking around the mall environment cautiously. "The pharmacy is probably on the second floor," she said after they could not find any medicine on the first floor. Slowly, the man's eyes revealed doubts because the second floor was pitch dark, unlike the first floor which was almost all the corners illuminated by the sun. Just like Maya, Ben's feelings also began to doubt as they cannot see the second floor, which looked really dark at that time. But Ben knew that his wife and child were waiting for the medicine they would bring this time. They have to hurry, before bad things really come to them later."Okay. Let's go," said Ben, trying to brace himself. They did not encounter any zombies until now. His confidence increased, as the two began to climb the broken escalator to go to the second floor.Luckily for them, the drug store was not far from the escalator and still had a dim light from one of the lights that still on. Though occasionally, it will be flashing in a scary way.
The pain slowly faded as Maya had lost her consciousness. Only a warm and gentle feeling greeted her after she passed away. Maya no longer felt the pain when her eyes were completely closed. The world suddenly felt so quiet that Maya felt that she was in an abyss of nothingness, where she could not even hear her breathing.Maya is always thinking. That when she died, maybe she could finally have a chance to meet her family again and get their forgiveness after Maya felt like she could not protect her family until the very end. Maya might be able to see her brother again. And her parents, whom she was forced to kill when they both turned into zombies and nearly attacked her sick brother. Maya waited until the miracle came. But no matter how long Maya waited, the darkness that surrounded her did not dissipate in any moment.Slowly but surely, the feeling of calm turned into a feeling of restlessness. Because right now, Maya did not know if she was dead or alive. Just as her anxiety was a
The knife she was trying to grasp with difficulty just fell to the floor after Maya herself fell heavily. The girl's breathing was slightly erratic, as her head throbbed severe and unfamiliar memories began to appear in her mind.At first, the memories seemed hazy and blurry, as if they were being covered up by something. But as time went on, the voice grew louder and clearer, until Maya felt herself looking at the current snippet of the film. A poor girl is crying in front of a grave in her first memory, before the scene changes when a man takes her to a big house filled with many servants who welcome the man's arrival.The scene changed again when the girl who thought that she would live comfortably from then on, actually got a living hell in the big house. Even though she was the daughter of the owner of the mansion, the girl continued to be treated worse than a maid. Her father no longer wanted to care for her. Meanwhile, her mother and stepsister are constantly looking for a way t
