The container in which the salt was stored was half empty. Ava stared at it in disbelief. ‘Lyla has been a hand full’ she thought inwardly while making a new meal. ‘Someone needs to teach her a lesson’

She got to Liam's room with a bowl of oats and milk.

“You took forever.” Said Liam once he heard the door. Ava let out a small smile. “There were some….. distractions.” She stood, facing the back of his wheelchair, which was by the window. “I've brought your meal”

Liam, using the controls, turned to face Ava. “It's a shame you'll have to feed me. I can't use my hands” he shrugged his shoulders.

“What? Since when?” Ava asked, giving his ‘non-working’ hands a once over. They seemed fine to her.

“You don't believe me?” Liam asked. There was no harm in feeding him, Ava thought. To her, Liam barely liked her so why would he ask to be fed by her? Maybe he was telling the truth.

“Okay, it's fine” Ava sighed in defeat and sat down opposite him. She started to feed him.

    The voice came from behind, on the second line. The ones on the first line gave way to see who it was. She had bedhead brown hair packed In a bun. Her body quivered slightly, both her hands balled into fists by her side, and her face still looking downwards. “Depression? Derah wasn't depressed” she muttered loud enough for everyone to hear. Her teeth clenched “And she wasn't harboring any fucking suicidal thoughts” Her voice broke. “Derah wanted to live.” Teardrops were now visible on the marble floor below her. “She could've lived a long life, but you people killed her”Her voice became loud “YOU PEOPLE KILLED HER!” She snapped a glare at Albert with an accusing finger, and her eyes welled up with tears. “We?” Thelma scoffed “You saw it with your own eyes. She was with the gun she used to kill—” “Don't tell me that bullshit!” She cut in, leaving Thelma's jaw-dropping. A maid dared to cuss at her? The woman continued to rant “Ever since she and that bitch Lyla had served a meal

    “What's going on out there?” Kain asked, fastening his cufflinks. He was asking the maid who had entered the room with a tray of his breakfast. “Haven't you seen the news, Master Kain?” She returned the question. “Derah's death is all over; almost every news station in California has an article already written about her.” Her voice suddenly hushed nervously. “They are all saying that the Blackwood family orchestrated her murder,” She was quick to add, “But of course, I don't believe them. I saw it. Derah unalived herself” Kain paid her no attention. Even though he had no hand in Derah's death, he trusted Thelma and Evie to take care of everything without letting the news escalate. But it seemed they were incompetent in that area too. It was only an intuition, but Kain believed that whoever sold the news out to the media had to be one of the other maids.After the maid serving him excused herself, he downed the black coffee and left whatever remained on the plate. He got downstair

    Liam needed a moment to digest what he had heard. Ava was now free to resume her work at the hospital. That meant she would leave him. She could easily quit working for him and go back to her dream job. Why did it make him feel gloomy? He couldn't let Ava leave, he didn't want her to….at least not yet. After making up his mind, Liam hid her phone. He would keep the message a secret till the month was over to stop her from leaving. ‘I’ll delete the call log when my sight comes back again’ he said inwardly. *************Ava's eyes fluttered open. She placed her hand on her forehead after a mild headache hit her. How long was I asleep? She asked inwardly. She winced, shutting her eyes. She tried to open them again but saw a blurry image above her face. “Liam?” Her thoughts escaped her lips in a murmur. She thought she saw him. She rubbed on her eyes, clearing her vision, only to see that it was Albert. Her face showed disappointment. But then again, how did she expect Liam to come

    Liam sat on his bed in his room. His face, deeply troubled, was fixated down to the marble floor. He kept thinking about what happened in Ava's room last night— the maid that tried to stab her. If he hadn't gone to her room that night, he would have been greeted by her corpse the next morning. And even though it didn't happen, the thought of it made him restless. “Son?” Albert entered the room, shutting the door behind him. “You called…..is something up?” He grabbed a stool nearby and sat opposite Liam. Liam didn't look up. He waited a while before disclosing “Someone's trying to kill Ava. If I wasn't there last night, she would be dead” A short silence settled between them. Albert broke the silence with a narrowed expression “Which of them did it?” He asked. ‘Them’ referring to either Kain, Thelma, or Evie. Liam clicked his tongue, “I don't know yet,” “But you've got an idea” Albert knew who was on Liam's mind. Liam shook his head “Kain wouldn't kill her” Albert sneered almost

    Ava blinked twice and she looked at Liam. She could've sworn she heard him say something about her hair. But she wasn't sure. Maybe she imagined it. “Strange woman” Liam called out of the blue. “I'm suddenly curious” Ava turned to him, ignoring the fact that he called her strange, and asking “Curious about?” “Why do you want to help me so badly? You're the first woman to actually consider my condition and make a move towards it. What's in it for you?” he asked. Ava leaned back, taking her eyes back to the fountain. She gave his question a thought and opened her mouth to speak. “There was something I could do so why would I just sit back and watch?” She returned the question. Liam was quick to answer “Didn't your parents teach you to mind your business? Besides, you were brought to take care of me….. meddling in anything else would've gotten you fired” “But it didn't,” said Ava almost immediately. Liam scoffed, his tone sarcastic. “And you think it's because you're best buddies

    Liam couldn't believe his ears, the shock on his face was evident. According to Albert, they had already tested the device and got it imported for him. All thanks to Ava and Finn, people he never thought would make a difference in his life. He could barely wait, his heart was pounding hard against his chest. The three welcomed the specialist whose trip from China down to the United States was sponsored by Albert. Albert gave him a good old handshake “Welcome Dr. Qin Shi” “Thank you, Mr. Albert Blackwood,” He took his hand in a shake. After which he scammed the faces in the room, his hands akimbo. “Well, then, shall we?” He asked. The moment they nodded, he signaled his assistants to come in with the orthotic device. They called it the “Mobility Enhancer Orthosis” The MEO was brought to Liam's bed where the dissembling took place. The more unfamiliar sounds Liam heard, the more anxious he grew. Dr. Qin Shi did the fixation himself, carefully showing each of them how Liam would we
