"Strange? What do you mean, Doctor?" Mum asked, not because she was concerned for my health but because she didn't want any of their plans disrupted.

"Is she going to die?" Dad asked the doctor which made the doctor turn to look at him in utter shock.

"What!?" The doctor almost screamed in shock.

"How could you say such things, sir." The doctor asked him.

"If you're going to be this negative around my patient, please leave this room." The doctor added.

"We're so sorry Doctor, my husband was just worried for our daughter. It was just the wrong choice of words." Mum said, coming to the rescue once again.

"It's fine, I just do not like any negative utterances and actions around my patients, whether they are conscious or unconscious." The doctor explained further.

"I'm sorry, Doctor. It won't happen again." Dad said to the doctor.

"There's no problem." The Doctor replied after which, he picked up his stethoscope and checked my heart beat once again while my parents watched in anticipatio

    I had collapsed, and passed out.“Drea! Drea!” She screamed in horror as she rushed to me.Hearing Anne scream, Maggie, with another housekeeper rushed in to see what was going on.“Oh my goodness…” Maggie exclaimed, seeing Anne looking horrified, while I remained on the floor, almost lifeless.“Get the car right now!” Anne yelled at them, tears trickling down her face as she held onto me.The other housekeeper ran off, while Maggie stayed back with Anne to carry me all the way to the car.They hurriedly but gently placed me in the car and the driver zoomed out of the compound. And as they headed to the hospital, confused on what to do, Anne grabbed her phone and dialled Kelvin's number.“Pick up, Kelvin. Pick up your call.” Anne muttered amidst sobs, holding her phone to her ear.She hissed loudly as the phone made its last ring and wasn't picked up. She flung it to the footwell.“Be fast! We're running out of time. Step on it!” She yelled at the driver, who stepped on the gas, speed

    SORIN'S MANSION DAYS LATER “Good evening, ma'am. Welcome back.” One of the maids, Maggie, greeted Anne as she helped her with her suitcase.“Thank you so much, Maggie.” She smiled in gratitude as she walked into the living room.She had just arrived from the three-day company summit and although she was completely exhausted, she was proud of herself. Jake had thought that she was going to fail woefully but to his shock, she did well. She impressed the foreign partners and they immediately signed the deal with their company, awarding them a five-year contract worth millions of dollars, that could be renewed after the initial term.She smiled proudly as she thought about how it all went down at the summit. She never believed that she could pull such a huge task off brilliantly, but she was glad that she was able to, especially with the support of the members of her team.Still in her thoughts, she suddenly remembered me and snapped out of it.“What of Drea?” She asked Maggie immediat

    As soon as Anne stepped out of Jake's office, and was out of his sight, she gasped for breath. Her whole body trembled and she had to lean on the wall for support.“Calm down, Anne,” she whispered to herself. “Breathe….” She took a deep breath, letting the air fill her lungs, and slowly exhaled, feeling her tension ease.As soon as she was able to calm down and put herself together, she heaved a sigh of relief.She thought about what just happened and what she said to Jake.Amazed by her sudden confidence, she said to herself with a big smile, “Well, that was kinda fun.”Slowly, her smile soon began to disappear as the realization of the consequences of her actions hit her. “But I foresee trouble from here on now.” She said to herself again.She suddenly heard a sound shattering glass coming from Jake's office, and immediately raced to the elevator, heading back to her floor.Back in Jake's office, he stared furiously at the pieces of his wine glass which he had just slammed to the

    A bit confused, Anne frowned as she asked, “Thanks to me? What do you mean?”He began, “Well, I saw a certain someone hurrying somewhere during work hours. I thought it was an emergency and so, I decided to trail her.” “Uh.. I don't see how that is any business of mine, sir. I really don't understand what you're getting at.” She said, still looking confused.He scoffed, and raised an eyebrow. “Why do I feel like you already know what I'm about to say, but you're intentionally acting like you don't?”“Sir, I have no idea what you're talking about. In fact, I don't even know why I'm here or why we're having this conversation.” She said, with a curious look on her face.“Is that so?” He asked, with sarcasm.“Yes, sir.” She nodded as she responded.He smiled, “You'll understand soon enough. Just let me finish with what I was saying.”“Okay, sir.” She said, hesitantly.“Now as I was saying…. Guess what I saw?” He smiled mischievously, while Anne just stared at him, with curiosity still pla

    NEW YORK ZAS HOLDINGSAnne was working on her laptop when Isabella walked into their large office looking a bit worried.“Anne?” She called the busy Anne, who still had her eyes focused on the screen of her laptop.“Hmmmm.” Anne muttered, “What's up?” She asked, still not looking at Isabella.“What did you do to Mr Richardson?” Isabella asked her.Anne furrowed her brows. “What do you mean? Did he say I did anything?” She asked, nonchalantly. “‘Cause last I checked, we do not have any business together for now.” She shrugged as she kept typing on her laptop.“He has just asked to see you.” Isabella answered, and Anne's fingers suddenly froze as she stopped typing and finally looked up at Isabella.“What!” She exclaimed. “Wh… why?” She stuttered. “What did I do? Did he tell you anything?”Isabella sighed. “I have no idea. He didn't tell me. He just told me to ask you to come to his office immediately.” Isabella leaned forward as she added, “And with the look of things, he seems to be

    “Yes.” Sorin looked up at her. “What is going on? Why are you yelling?” He asked, a bit irritated.“Really? Why am I yelling? Is that all you're going to say to me?” She inquired, with a frown.Sorin’s eyes narrowed in confusion. “I don't understand. What should I have said?”She hissed. “I've been talking to you here, but you've been ignoring me because you're focused on something else.” She complained, getting upset. “Are you mad at me?” She asked him.“No.” He answered coldly, not totally paying attention to her.She turned away from the mirror and faced him. “Is your laptop your girlfriend now? Is it more important than I am to you?” She asked, curiously.He leaned backwards, on the headboard, staring at her. “Daisy, please, don't even start now…”“What is it? I'm not wrong now, am I?” She snapped at him.“Fine! I'm sorry. I apologize for not paying attention to you. But honestly, I really didn't hear you.” He quickly apologized, not wanting her to suspect anything.“Why? Because

    FOUR WEEKS LATERLOS ANGELES Daisy slowly walked out of the bathroom, her bathrobe snuggled around her body. She gently settled into the white stool at her vanity, the soft cushion, giving her the needed comfort. She stared at Sorin through the mirror, and as her gaze remained on him, and his eyes fixated on his laptop screen, a sly smile spread across her face.“Finally, I have him all to myself.” She thought to herself, her smile broadening.Sorin looked up from his laptop. “You're finally done. I thought you weren't going to come out of the bathroom till tomorrow.” He said, jokingly and she chuckled.“Well, you know how I love my beauty baths.” She commented proudly.His head snapped backwards. “Beauty baths? What does that even mean? He frowned, playfully rolling his eyes.“How do you think I keep my whole body looking this fresh and hot?” She continued.Sorin furrowed his brows.She scoffed, shaking her head. “I don't blame you. You can't understand.”“I agree. I can NEVER unde

    “Ma'am?” Kelvin rushed in too. “Oh my goodness!” He exclaimed.“Call the doctor, immediately. “ Anne yelled, panicking. Kelvin immediately took his phone, and swiftly speed-dialled the doctor. “Hello Doctor. It's an emergency. Please come by the—”“I’m not dead….” I weakly spoke up, stopping him mid-sentence.“Oh my goodness.” Anne sighed in relief, her eyes welling up with tears.Kelvin was also relieved to see that I was fine. I saw relief evident on his face.Although I spoke weakly, at least it gave them the reassurance that I wasn't unconscious, or dead, maybe.“What is going on? Is there an emergency?” I heard the doctor's voice faintly from Kelvin's phone.He immediately checked his phone and realized the doctor was still on the call. “It's nothing, Doctor. Don't bother. Bye for now.” He quickly spoke into the receiver and ended the call.“You scared me.” Anne said, wiping her tears as she helped me sit up.“I know, and I'm sorry.” I apologized, my voice a bit inaudible.“You

    “Mr Zaveri has left already.” Kelvin reiterated, making it clear to Anne that Sorin wasn't around, and her outburst was basically going to be pointless.“Geez!!!” Anne slowly dropped to the ground once again.“So he was in a hurry to leave right after serving her divorce papers? How much more insensitive could he be.” She said, her tone filled with disappointment.“Actually, we had a heated argument. A bit of an angry back and forth. I guess that was what made him pack up and leave earlier than he was supposed to.” Kelvin explained, but Anne shook her head.“That’s not an excuse, Kelvin. He is just wicked and insensitive. That's all I can say.”She turned to look at him again and at that moment, it clicked. Kelvin's busted lip was as a result of his argument with Sorin.She swiftly got up. “He did this to you, didn't he?” She asked him, her tone filled with both curiosity and certainty.He maintained a blank expression. “Anne, it's nothing.”“That's not what I'm asking you, Kelvin.” S
