INICIAR SESIÓNI nodded. “Take care,” I told them. We hugged each other for the last time, and I accompanied them to the elevator before I went inside Adrian’s room. The bodyguard that Veronica hired for me was in the lobby. I prepared the food that I brought. I transferred it to a microwavable container to hea
“Thank you for agreeing, Analia,” Jessica said while holding my hands. I saw the relief in her eyes, though the sadness was still visible. I smiled. “Go for now and rest, Jessica,” I said, then I looked at James beside her. “You too, James.” I looked at them both. “I will take care of Adrian. I wi
I sat in the car, staring blankly outside. I sighed. I looked at the hospital again in front of me. I didn’t know how Arzhel would react later. But aside from that, I didn’t even know how to tell him that I needed to stay with Adrian for a while. That would be ridiculous. I would take care of ano
“Wait here,” I told the two security guards who escorted me to the hospital. They nodded. Arzhel still didn’t know that I had security with me every time I went out. It was Veronica’s idea. I twisted the doorknob slowly. I looked at Jessica, who just stood and came closer to me. James was sleepin

“Unbelievable,” I mouthed. “Childish,” I mouthed to her and rolled my eyes. We looked away from each other when Arzhel talked again. He passed the document in my direction. “Here’s the draft for the mortgage contract,” Arzhel said. I looked at him. My eyebrows furrowed a little because of confus
I saw their family members on the benches in the waiting area outside the ICU rooms at the end of the hallway. There were two women, both crying. I assumed they were their wives. The two benches were facing each other, and I assumed each bench was for the family of each security personnel. On one
We stayed on the rooftop for 15 minutes. After I cried, we just stood there, feeling the fresh air. It helped me relax and clear my mind again. “Thank you,” I told Arzhel.
