Calistha bit her lip slowly while watching Aiden's calm face resting on his comfortable hospital blanket. After two hours of doctors examining him and stitching up the wounds on his face, Aiden was finally able to be transferred to a regular ward in an unconscious condition. Ten minutes ago Aiden had opened his eyes, muttered incoherently, then closed his eyes again peacefully. According to doctor, Aiden's condition is stable, and soon the man will open his eyes after the effects of the anesthetic wear off.“Huufftt… quickly wake up and be cynical in front of me again. Really, it's much better than me seeing you lying weak like this." Calistha whispered softly to the empty air around her.She then stood up and decided to go outside for a while. A little breath of fresh air in the hospital garden doesn't seem like a bad idea. Since then she was quite bored of being in Aiden's lonely treatment room. Moreover, she was only accompanied by the sound of a cardiograph, which had been so nois
“Open your mouth! Don't be a stubborn, Aiden." Calistha growled in annoyance when she saw Aiden looking reluctant to eat his homemade food even though she had convinced the man more than ten times that the food she was cooking was really edible and safe. "I don't want to risk going back to that damned place again if I eat your food." “You think what I put in here, it's really safe. Here look, I also eat your food." Calistha angrily shoved a spoonful of risotto into her mouth and chewed it a little roughly to show Aiden that the food was safe to eat. During the three days accompanying Aiden in the hospital, Calistha began to learn to cook proper food for Aiden. When Aiden is sleeping, she will read recipes through Aiden's cellphone, then remember carefully the recipes in her brain. And yesterday when Aiden was allowed to go home by the doctor, she immediately went to the supermarket and shopped for household needs to fill Aiden's kitchen which had been rarely filled by the owner. In
The beautiful woman nodded slowly, saluting the young woman in front of her while smiling sarcastically in her haughty manner. An accidental first meeting. Emily doesn't know that Baron, Luca's accomplice who died because he was shot by Aiden, has a bitch named Rania who turns out to both have a grudge against Aiden. While Luca is in a coma in the hospital, Emily is currently the leader of the cartel. As Luca's lover, the people in the cartel knew her quite well. And they didn't have the slightest doubt about Emily's leadership style because she was almost the same as Luca who was also ambitious, but crueler than Luca. "So you want to get rid of them too?" Emily asked bluntly. Rania nodded firmly in response while showing her hate-filled face that ignited a grudge. For her, life must be paid for life. Before Aiden died at her hands, she would never give up chasing that man. "Then you can join my team. Incidentally I also want to get rid of that sniper, and also Calistha, Jacob’s da
For a long time, Calistha prayed in St Paul's Church accompanied by Aiden, who had only been staring at the people who were praying with a straight face. When feeling bored, Aiden then raised his wrist to look at his watch which was showing four in the morning. It turned out that he had been in that building long enough with Calistha. But for the serenity that this church offered, he liked it very much. He seemed to be able to forget his complicated problems for a moment while looking at the holy-looking people clasping their hands. “Do you want to accompany me upstairs? I want to see the view of the City of London from the top of the tower.” Without saying a word, Aiden immediately got up from his seat and walked towards the right passage that would lead them to the tower. Calistha who saw Aiden's silence was only able to follow the man in silence while observing every beautiful ornament that lay along the church aisle which looked dim and deserted. While she was busy observing the
"That's Luciana..." Malfoy pointed to a little girl with shoulder-length curly blonde hair who was walking out of the orphanage with two friends who were also the same age as her. Calistha smiled gently when she saw the three girls because she suddenly remembered her pleasant childhood. In the past she also had friends like gang who always went with her wherever she went. Even her grandmother was made to get irritated because every time they bought a girl's clothes or knick-knacks, she always asked to buy two of her friends too so they could use the same things. Ahh... it all feels so long ago. How are the two friends now, Lee Bora and Choi Anna? "Luciana!" Malfoy called Luciana and waved his hand at the girl, begging her to come closer. Calistha looked happy when Luciana with her adorable little legs immediately ran towards Malfoy, even the little girl had stretched her arms to be hugged by Malfoy. “Uncle! I miss you," cried Luciana spoiled. Malfoy smiled happily and immediately
The little girl struggled and cried loudly in front of two well-built men who had been looking furious because of the little girl's loud voice. They then took a cloth and started gagging the pale lips of the little girl who had been crying all night without stopping. "You should be quiet and not hurt our ears, this is the result if you keep crying non-stop." Luciana inched backwards, but her hands and feet that were bound to the wooden chair made her movements seem useless. She wanted to go home and be back with her friends. She wanted her brave uncle to come save her. Saving her was like the fairy tales of the princesses that she had often read. The two men were like the monsters that had sometimes been present in her dreams, on the night when she suddenly missed her mother. Luciana sobbed softly behind the cloth covering her mouth. As a girl who is still very innocent, she has been faced with the cruelty of the world that has succeeded in taking her mother. Blame God who ordained
Calistha got out of Malfoy's jeep while smoothing the strands of her hair that were blowing in the wind to cover her eyes. They finally arrived at Ilderton after circling for quite a while looking for clues to Luciana's whereabouts. At first glance Calistha felt strange with Malfoy. The man said that he was just an ordinary young man who had never had anything to do with her father. But when she met Malfoy this morning, all her trust in him fell. She couldn't believe that Malfoy was just an ordinary boy because he seemed to be hiding something from her. And again, how did Malfoy find the whereabouts of Aiden's house? Even though she believes that the existence of Aiden's house is very difficult for people to find. Aiden's house has always looked like an empty, gloomy and haunted house. Malfoy couldn't have found her so quickly, unless Malfoy wasn't an ordinary boy, as he had been telling her all along. “They hid Luciana inside.” Calistha stared at Malfoy in silence and just followed
Calistha breathed heavily as she followed Aiden's broad steps as he walked into his house. After they managed to deliver Luciana safely to her orphanage and made sure to give the little girl a tight guard while the criminals who kidnapped her were still out there, Aiden hadn't made the slightest sound in front of her. Even when Malfoy was talking to him, Aiden just responded coldly without giving any comment to every word Malfoy said when they talked about Luciana's safety. Calistha felt a little bad for making the atmosphere between them so unpleasant like this. She felt sorry for Aiden of course. She had been manipulating him all along. And unfortunately she didn't know how to act in front of him after this. But if she wanted to defend herself, she might find Aiden weird for being too much. Hadn't the man been paid to look after her? He shouldn't have gotten so angry with the truth she had been hiding for so long. She was just making sure her position was safe with Aiden. At this t
