It was a portrait of him with his mother, Sophia Lawson. Kyle was sitting in a luxurious, high-backed, curved, throne-like chair with golden arms and legs. The backrest was also painted in a shimmering golden color while the cushion was velvety and in a deep red color.

His dark eyes shone and a leg was crossed over the other. His arms were on the armrest while his mother stood behind the chair, holding the curved edge of the chair. Her face was gleaming with pride.

Although the portrait in itself was a masterpiece, what Kyle liked the most about it was the happy smiles on their faces and that they wore black.

The portrait made him feel like it was real. Kyle's features were impressively detailed and Sophia also looked young just like he had seen as a child before she left him.

"This is wonderful. In fact, this is..." Kyle trailed off, his shocked gaze glued to the portrait. "This looks so real. I don't have words to praise it. It's so perfect and..." Kyle raised his eyes.

    119Kyle's POV“Forget about the questions, sir. I'll tell you a story that has answers to all your questions. Okay? Let's take a walk as I tell you the story.” I walked beside Titus on the street as he told me Jessica's story.How she met her husband, and then how they got married four years ago and were happy for three years.“Then a few months back, things completely changed for her. Jessica's husband started ignoring her to such an extent that he wouldn't come home from office for days. He wouldn't even take her calls. She thought it's because of not being able to have a baby. They've been trying for a while and Jessica wouldn't just get pregnant. But then, the truth was something else. Jessica learned it on the day she did get pregnant— It's the day you both met each other, sir. The day of the accident.”We stoppe

But Birdie was willing to sacrifice herself to save Jessica. I owe her for this. If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't have found Jessica back. We wouldn't have met again.Keeping her favors in mind, I did what was the right thing.“Mari, prepare the guest room. Miss Birdie will move in with us for a while.” At my words, Birdie's eyes widened.“S-sir, I… I can't—”“Fiona, it's your duty to make sure she takes good care and medical help— Wait, I think you should stay here too.” She looked dumbstruck.“But Lila… She will seriously kill me.&

She calmed down and I felt relieved.I tried to speak in my softest voice but I knew I didn't manage it because my voice was gruff from anger, and also because my throat was thick from all the emotions. But I was glad she was calm.Not for a long time, though, because she was back at wriggling again.I held her right as I whispered near her ear, "Jessica, it's okay. It's okay. I'm here. It's not one of them. It's me, Kyle. You're safe."Hearing my name, her body became still."K-kyle? Y-you came?"Flashback end...I will never forget how her voice had sounde

Birdie said in a low voice from beside me..There was no doubt about how the guard Titus was talking to seemed scared."Sir, look inside the cabin at the other guard. He's making a call while he's also looking at you just like this guard!" Jennifer almost yelled on my other side.It alerted the other guy that was trying to make a call. I heard something like: She's here to save her. Sir, that girl brought people to save her.I quickly sprinted towards him and grasped him in a choke hold."Where is Jessica?" I saw his face turning pink as I squeezed his neck in the crook of my elbow."Sir, Jasm

Tell sir about the main issue." Mari said."Yeah, err, sir, Jasmine.... She's been framed by her husband...." Birdie went on and on in her meek and innocent voice.But I wasn't listening. I was chanting Jasmine's name. It brought a smile to my lips. Titus stared at me like I was losing my sanity. But I didn't care.Jessica wasn't lost. She hadn't gone far away. We could still meet.Jasmine, not Jessica, Kyle!I breathed deeply, the phone still clutched by my ear. Even though I wasn't focused, I caught on every detail Birdie gave over the phone."Give me the address, Birdie." I said, stopping her from elongating her explanation any further.I didn't need her to give me details to prove anything. My heart knew Jessica was in danger. I could feel it in my chest.... And I was going to rescue her."I-it is... It is—""For

    114Kyle's POVMy heart is thudding ruthlessly in my chest. I still can't believe it. I still can't come to accept that it's happened. That Jessica is back in my house. That we met again.Exhaling a sigh, I went over the closed door of my room. I raised a hand to open the door but Fiona caught my wrist."Don't be restless, Kyle. Let the doctor examine her." I stared at her in response.But a simple stare can't describe how grateful I'm towards her. I want to hug her and tell her how much I respect her for being the bridge between me and Jessica.As if she understood my feelings, she passed me a soft smile of acknowledgement.I couldn't smile back given my heart and mind are focused on what is happening inside.
