THIRD PERSON'S POV _______________________________________________________________________________________ On the other hand, Lucas was still in the hospital. The small hand was somewhere between nine and ten and the bigger hand was a little past seven indicating it was around twenty five minutes approximately before clock struck ten at night. Eyes fixed on the clock hanging on the wall in front of him, he dragged a hand hand down his face to rub away his tiredness. Mike had returned to hospital about an hour ago but hadn't said anything to Lucas about anything. Nor there was any trace of Xander Knight. He couldn't help but wonder where was Xander or why he wasn't here at the hospital yet? As far as he knew, that jerk claimed to love Scarlett so where was he now? Lucas had wanted to get up and ask doctor what he and Xander did talk about but the very next minute, he saw Ryan Kingsley and his wife with a little kid, entering the corridor and heading for Scarlett's room. Knowing
THIRD PERSON'S POV __________________________________________________________ The soft lights coming from the big window in the room shined on her face. Moonlight radiating on her still and numb body. Tracing his long, deft fingers along her cheeks softly, Xander breathed out. She is his love. She is the woman he loves and he wouldn't let her get away from him.No one can take her away from him. Not even god. Maybe love is a small word to describe the way he feels for his raven haired beauty.The passion and adoration he feels when looking at her beautiful dark brown eyes is something he has never felt before and will never feel ever with anyone but with her and only her. Her dark tresses were laying around her beautiful face. She was beautiful. Always have been. Even in this hospital gown, she looked beautiful.But the thing that disturbed Xander the most were the tubes attached to her body.So many tubes were going over her body to the two big machines standing on both sid
THIRD PERSON'S POV __________________________________________________________ "You made me do it."His voice was laved with disgust, as if he was repulsed by his own self. Karla's eyes widened at her son's words.She made him do it? No, she wouldn't ever do that to him. Never. He was her son and she always wanted to protect and love him. "No, baby. You didn't do anything. Why are you saying so?" She tried to approach him slowly. "You are wrong. I did it. I was a part of it. If only I knew......If only I knew I wouldn't have ever let you done that." He grabbed the ends of his hair, his voice boiled in agony of his own actions, he could feel something heavy in his chest, weighing him down. "What you didn't know?" Karla sat down beside her son and put her hand on his shoulder to comfort him. She has never seen him like this.Never in her life, has she seen her son so much broken and sad, not even when she refused him to marry Nicole. "That..." He hiccuped a little before contin
THIRD PERSON'S POV __________________________________________________________ "Mom, I don't know how but you need to find it now!" "It's not here, Elray! I told you that I must have thrown it away. Trust me, there was no need for an antidote to that drug. She was supposed to wake up in a day." Karla huffed, panting from all the time she spent whole day on finding the antidote. "Exactly! She was supposed to wake up in a day but she didn't. It's been a almost a fucking week already but she hasn't even moved a single finger."Elray was on the verge of losing it. They have spent an entire day looking for that little life saving bottle but it was nowhere to be found. He sighed heavily and went to the mini bar to get a bottle of whiskey.His eyes roamed around the counter.The glasses were kept in the high shelf, wooden, rich brown coloured shelf made the contrast to the white wall so much more appealing in regal.The trash bin laying around the corner of the counter on the thick gre
THIRD PERSON'S POV _______________________________________________________________________________________ "The Antidote. It's here, with me." That was the last voice Xander wanted to hear right now.Scratch that. He never wanted to hear that voice. His body went stiff and jaw clenched tightly and eyes hardened.His fingers curled up into fists at both the sides of his body. But his face remained impassive. Mike looked shocked at the intrusion.And was even more shocked to see Elray Woods here.It was not hidden from anyone that Woods and Knights were rivals to each other. They were arch nemesis. The reason rumoured for the rivalry was business. Knights were the top and Woods came the fifth in the list of the topmost ten companies in the world.But still, everyone knew, that for some reason, the Xander Knight had always taken interests in the Woods. He had always tried to make sure that the Woods Corporation suffered and not get any contracts except the Jewellery Department of
THIRD PERSON'S POV _______________________________________________________________________________________ "The moon and the stars tried their best, but I couldn't look away from you." Putting the soft black pen down, he tenderly placed the gold trimmed paper note with the others on the nightstand beside her bed. Maybe she cannot read those notes yet but he still continued their tradition. To him, it was a tradition of his love. He has been the one putting notes on her bedside table each morning before she woke up.He doesn't know if she read those or not but he still continued. The only time there were no notes were the one month he had spent in Germany right after their wedding and the one month he still very much regrets. "Please, wake up soon, love. I am here waiting for you." His dark eyes softly gazed over her unconscious figure. "I love you, my rose."Clutching her hands tightly in his, he whispered the words to her before lightly placing his lips on her much pale hands
THIRD PERSON'S POV_______________________________________________________________________________________ Everyone present there turned to look at Ryan with a questioning look in their eyes. "What the fuck does he mean, Ryan?" It was Beth this time.Knowing that both Ryan and Xander does not like Lucas, it came as a shock to her to know that Ryan called Lucas Rodriguez here. Xander couldn't understand a single thing but he knew there must be a reason as the why his best friend did such an unexpected thing. He gazed back at Ryan only to find him looking back at him. "Can we talk outside for a minute?" Ryan asked Xander. Xander was hesitant in answering. He didn't want to leave his Triantáfyllo alone. But he also wanted to hear to Ryan. Ryan on understanding his dilemma, said,"It's alright. Beth is here. And it will only take a minute." Listening to him, Xander sighed and nodded before going back towards his wife and softly pecked her on her head and walked out. "But Ryan....
THIRD PERSON'S POV_______________________________________________________________________________________ On hearing, Beth's words, Lucas's breath quickened. He didn't know what to do so he abruptly got up and left the room in a haste. His actions were in so much haste and were unexpected that even the person listening to their conversation standing just outside the room also couldn't get much time to hide. He had his ear pressed to tye window where the curtains were drawn so that the people inside couldn't see him outside. It was only when Lucas opened the door suddenly, that the other person quickly turned away in the opposite direction and started to run. Lucas immediately ran after him.The man turned left to the corridor and Lucas followed suit. Who is he? And why the fuck was he outside Scarlett's room? Listening to their conversation?Lucas couldn't figure this out and the conclusion he could come up with was that, the person behind Scarlett's condition must have sent one
