Chapter 6-Lies

“You can go home now. Will no one be able to fetch you here?” asked the doctor while looking at the girl’s record.

Jesabell smiled and shook her head. She needs to behave so she can finally be free. They tied her up and injected her with medicine so she could forcibly sleep. The young man has not visited her since he left her at the hospital. It looks like he meant her to stay in the hospital for a week while he was on a business trip in fear that she might have done something wrong against Emily without him. The young man had done so much heartbreaking to her, so she should really get out of his power. She also lost her cellphone, and she knew that the nurse who cared for her had hidden it so she couldn’t ask for help.

Jesabell made herself comfortable. Emily is in control of Tyron, as well as the assistants. She lost when Tyron still had a bad impression of her. Besides, she also knew that Tyron would not just free her because of his grandfather, who was abroad for treatment.

“When you feel something strange, you can come back here for consultation. Don’t forget to take this medicine for your depression,” the doctor commanded.

Jesabell sighed. She also has no trust in the doctor, especially since Emily has spoken to him. Unbeknownst to them, she did not take the drug for depression they had given to her. She knew for herself that she was not ill and neither had a depression. Because of the previous incident in her life, she has already learned not to trust others. When she remembered another woman’s voice before she finally lost consciousness that night, she clenched her fist.

“That’s enough! Come on, let’s leave her,” said a voice that Jesabell recognized.

One corner of Jesabell’s lips rose. She tied her straight, below-the-shoulder-length hair. “You want to play? I’ll grant what you wish for!” She stared at herself in the small mirror and smiled. Her mind has changed; she will stay on Tyron’s side temporarily.

She didn’t know what Emily’s new plan was, and she suddenly loosened her security. The woman knows her discharge is today, but she hasn’t ordered anyone to pick her up and make sure she gets home. And she knew Tyron was coming back, so he let her go.

After leaving the hospital, Jesabell took a taxi. She still has money. Fortunately, her bill is automatically credited to Tyron’s bank account. She didn’t want to spend her savings so she could use it when she left.

Since she doesn’t want anyone to see her arrive, she sneaked inside the house through the back door. She wanted to see what people do at home. And because she was good at hiding or fleeing, no one noticed her until she got into her room. The way she acts seems like a thief, which made her laugh softly while rolling down the soft bed. She missed her room, which she used for many years.

Tyron woke up with a headache. It was at dawn when he got home. But even though he was late, he was still waking up early. It just happened that he woke up late today. When he remembered Jesabell, he hurriedly got up and left the room.

“Good morning, are you hungry?” Emily asked the young man gently.

“Why didn’t you wake me up earlier?” Tyron told the assistant while wearing shoes.

“Tyron, don’t blame the assistant. It was my fault, and I told them not to wake up because you got home so late,” Emily’s shy explanation.

Tyron sighed and sat up straight. Then she looked at Emily. He just noticed that she seemed to be sluggish, yet he was only away for a few days. She might feel upset because he only asked about Jesabell’s whereabouts and forgot about Emily. “Do you feel something?”

“Sir, Señorita Emily hasn’t eaten yet because she’s waiting for you so you aren’t alone in the dining room,” the assistant reported.

“Nida, you shouldn’t tell that to Tyron,” Emily scolded the assistant.

Tyron sighed again and approached the girl. “You shouldn’t starve yourself because of me.” He looked at the assistant. “Prepare some food for Emily. I have to go and fetch Jesabell at the hospital.”

“Sir, I went to Ma’am Jesabell this morning, but she didn’t want to go home with me.”

Tyron looked at his wristwatch. “Then, where is she?”

“Tyron, you know Jesabell. She was confined at the hospital for a week, so she probably wandered with Jason for a while,” Emily explained gently to the man.

Tyron’s jaw clenched. He thought Jesabell had changed, but she just fooled him again. He quickly grabbed his cellphone and planned to call the girl. But he saw that she had a message. “Don’t look for me anymore, and I’d rather be with Jason.”

The frugal and strange smile plastered on Emily’s lips as she saw Tyron’s face getting dark.

Tyron angrily returned the cellphone to the pocket of his trousers and then approached Emily to help her to the dining area.

Emily was overjoyed when the young man’s palm touched her shoulder. She is like an expensive thing that he handles with care. But they were just a few steps away when the door of a room on the second floor suddenly opened. Her eyes widened when she saw Jesabell coming out.

Tyron’s forehead wrinkled when he saw Jesabell. She was walking down the stairs slowly, and she didn’t seem to see him.

Nida was restless in her stance and was afraid of Emily’s furious look. She didn’t know how Jesabell got home that she and the other helpers didn’t notice.

Jesabell stopped stepping on the last two stairs when she raised her gaze and Tyron was there. Her eyebrows were already furrowed as he looked at her. She didn’t know what her fault was, and he seemed angry again.

“Why don’t you wait for me to pick you up?” Tyron asked coldly to the girl.

“Tyron, don’t be mad at Jesabell anymore. Maybe she’ll prefer to be with Jason. The important thing is that she got home safely and early.”

Jesabell’s eyebrows rose as she stared at Emily. She looks like a saint and is pretending that she’s always defending her to Tyron. She was disappointed again. They notice her mistake before greeting her. She stepped again until he got down the stairs.

“Jesabell, did you know that Tyron is very worried about you, but you don’t even understand his situation? He calls you a few times, but you don’t answer,” Emily said to the girl.

The expression on Jesabell’s face was blank while meeting Tyron’s angry eyes. It was once again angry at her for what Emily said. “Give me back my cellphone.”

Emily’s eyes widened slightly, and she quickly clung to the young man’s arm. “Tyron, I don’t think Jesabell is still not good.”

Suddenly, the aura of Tyron’s face fell, and he approached Jesabell, but she shook her head. “Don’t be scared, I’ll take you to another doctor for treatment—”

“I’m fine,” she replied calmly to Tyron and controlled her emotions. She didn’t want to go back to the hospital, and maybe she got really crazy because of the drugs they were injecting into her. “I’ll just take it from Nida then.”

Emily looked at Nida. She was nervous, and she might not have done what she had ordered her to do. When the assistant nodded, she breathed a sigh of relief. She smiled secretly because Tyron would think that the woman was crazy when she insisted on taking her cellphone from Nida.
