After the appointment, they left Dr. Sanchez’s room to finally leave. Both of them were silently walking until they saw someone familiar passing by.

It was Riden.

He was wearing his hospital uniform and stethoscope around his neck. Ellyse met eyes with him.

“Riden,” she acknowledged his presence.

“Ellyse, long time no see,” his eyes wandered off to Kai who’s standing beside her.

“And Kai,” he nodded briefly.

“You work here?” she aske

  • Fractured Promises   Chapter 155

    The silence settled between Ellyse and Kai. She couldn’t form an answer to his question, ‘what?’ Instead, she only looked at him as if the answers were written on his face. Then, she looked down. She felt ashamed to tell him about everything, that she’s kept such big information from him because she chose her family. But she’s had enough of running away from truth. From constantly having to hide something from him. For once, she wanted to be truthful. “What Alex Walker said is true. I did know who the mastermind behind my kidnapping is…” she licked her lips. “And you’re right, it’s the same person who robbed a million dollars from your company,” Kai was left in complete shock. His mouth gaped wide open as he stared at her, appalled. He didn’t know what to feel or how to feel about everything she revealed. It was something he never expected from her because he trusted her so much. Hearing her utter those words made him rethink everything they’ve went through. She sniffed, st

    It was raining during Albert Kennedy’s funeral. Everyone was wearing black, watching his casket slowly get buries underground. Ellyse stood in front, holding Claire on her right hand. Kai was right beside her, holding the umbrella. She had no tears left to cry. She felt cold all over. Eliana was beside Claire with a tissue on her hand, she’d been crying since the day she found out that her husband was dead. The days leading up to his burial was excruciating, not only for Ellyse’s family but also to the Laurents. His death was so sudden, so shocking that it rendered everyone weak. Ellyse couldn’t even ascertain how it happened, and when it happened. As far as she could remember, he was healthy. People started shoveling dirt over his casket, guests were starting to leave one by one until close relatives remained. “We’re always here for you,” Victoria approached her with a gentle smile on her face. She placed a soft kiss over her cheek before embracing her tightly. “Than

    The interrogation room was colder than Ellyse expected. She sat across from Detective Reynolds at a metal table, her hands resting together in her lap as she tried to keep them from trembling. There was nothing particularly intimidating about the room itself—just four pale walls, a fluorescent light overhead, and a small camera mounted in the corner—but the silence made it feel suffocating. Reynolds had been sitting across from her for several minutes without saying much, simply looking through the folder in front of him as though he already knew exactly what he wanted to ask. “Ellyse, we meet again” he finally said, lifting his eyes toward her. Ellyse’s expression remained composed, though his statement immediately made her stomach tighten. “Yesterday we interrogated Alex Walker in hopes of finally getting information out of her,” he began saying. “For the first time in weeks, she finally told us something,” he stopped browsing through the folder filled with documents to

    Ellyse walked back to her bedroom feeling better than ever. She didn’t expect for the night to turn out to be fine. She felt lighter, like a weight was lifted off from her shoulders. Like usual, she took a bath and did her skincare before going to bed. However, her peace was interrupted with a phone call coming from her mother.Eliana calling…She knew her mother well enough to anticipate that call. She just didn’t expect it to be at 11PM. She knew by then, that Eliana’s probably fuming after the embarrassment she caused her earlier.She not only declined Xander’s hand for marriage, but she also revealed in front of his family that she’s pregnant with another man.Craning her head to the side to ease the tension building in her system, she hesitated answering the phone call at first.“Hello-““What the hell were you thinking?!” Eliana shouted from the other line.“You don’t care about your father’s condition, do you? You never gave a damn about this family, Ellyse! I was doing that

    Ellyse arrived at the Giorgio mansion a few moments later. Their family owns Giorgio International Airways which is one of the reasons why Xander decided to pursue aeronautical engineering and become a full-blown pilot. She parked her car outside the house before stepping out of it while carrying her clutch. She was greeted by the helpers when she entered the premises of their house. “Good evening, ma’am,” says the maid with a small smile on her face. She nodded to regard her presence before following her to the dining area. It seems like she’s the only one they were waiting for since everyone was present, except for her father. She plans to visit him tomorrow. “Ellyse, finally,” her mother immediately had to put on a fake mask, like everything was going well between them. The fake smile she wore on her face made her feel disgusted. She couldn’t even fully embrace her mother because she knew exactly what the purpose of that dinner was. “Mom,” she replied coldly before

    Ellyse woke up the next day without Kai on the bed. Instead, she saw him on sitting on the sofa silently. It was almost as if he never even slept at all, or maybe he woke up before her. Their eyes met when she descended the stairs, she stifled a small smile before finally stepping from the last step. “Morning,” he greeted her with a tight-lipped smile. “Morning,” she greeted back. “Let’s go home?” he asked casually. It seems as if he was in a good mood. He doesn’t seem too confounded with what happened last night. “Sure,” she nodded. For the very last time, Ellyse took a good look of the interior of the house before they left. Then, she also admired the exterior once they got outside. She felt so proud of herself and loved every single second of looking up at the house she designed. It felt like a dream come true to her. During all of that, Kai stood in front of his car, watching her admire her work. For some reason, he found it fascinating to see her ogle at th

    Ellyse woke up the next day with Claire shaking both her and Kai’s body nonstop. “Mom! Dad! Let’s swim in the pool!” Their villa had a built in swimming pool just outside of the veranda. It was an infinity pool that had the view of the beach from afar.“Claire…it’s still s

    “I’m sorry I have to take this,” She stood up from sitting. “Go ahead,” He gestured his hand towards the door while she nodded. She went to his kitchen for privacy before accepting the call. “Hello, Mom?” She answered.

    After the interview, Ellyse was told that by next week, they’ll schedule a photoshoot with her which she immediately agreed to. She drove home that night. By 10 pm, she arrived at the mansion and ate breakfast by herself. Then, she went to Claire’s room who’s

    The next morning, Ellyse felt much better than yesterday thanks to Riden’s company last night. It really made her feel seen in some ways. Two days from now, the charity event will take place and she’s been dreading it. First of all, she’s going to have to pre
