Liora had her hands raised up, stopping Betty midway, a steely look in her eyes as she walked towards Betty.

The tension in the room was palpable, as Liora's step cut through the silence like a knife.

"What are you doing?" Lily whispered.

"You'll see," Liora responded.

Betty had no idea what was going on as she tried to stall for time with Travis.

“Hmm, Mr. Ashford…" Betty said into the phone, trailing off as Liora picked up a pen and paper from the table.

“What is the response?” Travis asked a

    The next morning, Fiona was still stable, and Liora breathed a sigh of relief as she checked on her.“When is he arriving?” Lily asked as Liora stepped out of Fiona’s room.“He should be in by tonight," Liora replied.They all looked exhausted, as none of them had gotten a wink of sleep since the night before.“Did you know about Mum's illness?” Betty asked from behind.She had stepped away to use the restroom, and now she looked at Liora with pain mixed with suspicion."Betty, I can explain," Liora said softly.“You knew! Why did you keep it from me?” Betty asked.“Can we please not do this out in the open? I know Fiona would not want that.” Liora pointed out.Betty nodded and said, “Let’s talk in your office.”“I knew today was going to come.” Lily whispered to Liora.“Not now," Liora muttered.They all headed up to Liora’s office, shut the door behind them, and sat down in the lounge area.“Who wants to go first?” Betty asked, looking from Lily to Liora.“Hey, don’t look at me,” Li

    On the other side of town, Michael and Elizabeth Ashford sat in the conference room looking through the file in front of them.“Now that we have all these people in our camp, we need to move on to the next phase of the plan," Elizabeth stated.“Okay. What is the next phase? Or does it have something to do with what you are keeping from me?” Michael asked.“The next phase is getting Travis out of that office before your father wakes up or even you know…” Elizabeth said, trailing off.“Before he dies. Why are you scared to say that?” Michael asked.“Shhssshhh! Don’t say that out loud; anyone can hear you," Elizabeth said cautiously.“We are practically in the office, and it’s almost midnight; there is no one around," Michael reminded her.Still, it’s your father we are talking about. You can speak about him like that," Elizabeth warned.Michael stood up and walked to the other end of the table as he muttered under his breath, “He never really considered me his except as a tool to taunt

    Liora had no idea how she was able to leave the Stuart Media head office or where she spent the rest of the day before heading back home late into the night.When she pulled open the door, the house was quiet, so she tiptoed up the stairs to her room and gently shut the door behind her.“How did I not..." Liora mumbled, trailing off as she rested her back on her door.She slid to the floor, closing her eyes for a few seconds to numb the throbbing headache she felt banging at the back of her head.“If he was in an accident, then he was not the one who wanted me dead? Have I been too harsh on him? Is my revenge even justified?” Liora muttered.She didn't know what to do as she sat there staring into space. It felt like the very foundation she had built a part of her life on had come crumbling down.“Oh God, why is this happening?” she muttered as she tried to fight back tears.She remembered her first night back in town and her encounter with him at the cabin.“He didn’t know who I was.

    For a second, Liora froze, staring at the name and wondering why the h*ll would this person do this to me.“There is only one way to find out.” Liora muttered under her breath.“Liora?” Lily called from behind.Liora jerked, looking back to see her team all waiting for her. Then she remembered they had been checking on patients together.“Humm, let’s end today’s run here. We can continue tomorrow. Ian and Lily would check on the last two patients," Liora announced.“Okay.” The team murmured as everyone dispersed and headed back to their station.“Liora? Are you alright?” Lily asked, her voice filled with concern.“Yes, I am fine. I need to go somewhere now," Liora responded.“Somewhere? Does this have to do with Fiona?” Lily asked.Liora looked up sharply, her eyes narrowed as she said, “Fiona? What about her?”“You were not home when...." Lily started to say, but Ian quickly grabbed her arm, stopping her mid-sentence.“It’s nothing; why don’t you go about your business, and we can ta

    Two weeks passed, and it seemed like everything was back to normal. The media were quiet, and Liora could once more focus on following the few clues her investigator found out about her mother.The shrill of her alarm pierced through the air as it blared in the bright morning. It was Friday, and Liora got to head to the hospital a little later.“Ahhhhh, that is too loud,” she mumbled, her voice muffled by the pillow she spoke into.She stretched out her hand and somehow located the stop watch and clicked it to a stop.“Finally,” she groaned and then rolled onto her back to face the ceiling.Before she could even stretch, a soft knock sounded on her door.“Yes?” She called out.Ian opened the door slowly as he said, “It’s me, Ian. You have a package.”Liora sat up, rubbing her eyes as she said, “Come in. What package?”“I don’t know. I went out for a run this morning and saw the package on the driveway when I returned," Ian explained.He walked into the room and dropped the box on Lior

    Later that day, as Ellen packed her things to leave the White Medical Center with a security guard right by her side, she could hear the murmur of her colleagues around her.“Did you hear?”“I guess it’s true.”The words muttered softly in a whisper still found their way to her ears.“This way, ma’am,” the security guard said, escorting Ellen out of the room.“I know my way," Ellen said in irritation.The guard only nodded, not bothering to give her a response.Before stepping out of the hospital, Ellen could feel her phone vibrating with messages and calls.“The words surely have gotten around in such a short time.” Ellen mumbled under her breath.“It’s such a shame that you would ruin your career like this.” Nurse Sarah muttered as Ellen passed by the reception area.Ellen didn’t even as much as cast a glance her way as she walked past her and straight out the door.“Ellen!” Betty called from behind.Ellen kept walking, her face hardened in fury, her legs stomping the floor in haste
