Three weeks had crawled by since the procedure.

Outside their home, the world had not stopped. The radio stations still buzzed, markets opened, newscasters still smiled into cameras with the same mechanical ease.

Even the seasons had continued their quiet transitions.

But for Elise, time had stopped somewhere between those sterile white walls and the day she signed the consent papers.

Now she sat in front of the television, her eyes glazed, the low hum of the news echoing in the living room. The brightness from the screen flickered across her face, washing her in pale blue light.

Some woman on TV wearing a wide smile was talking about a national conference and the rage on increase in housing rents, while Elise listened.

She wasn’t angry that life went on. She didn’t even resent her for smiling. She just couldn’t understand how everything else could be moving so easily when her world had been gutted from the inside out.

Her hand drifted to her stomach, almost by instinct. The faint l

  • The Disabled CEO is my Husband.    Chapter 76

    Days had passed since Elise left. Long, shapeless days and Alejandro could not help but wonder how exactly air was passing through her lungs, knowing that she had left him behind. Because surviving had become a struggle for him.The house remained the same since she left. The faint scent of vanilla still clung to the hallway. Elise’s favorite mug still rested on the kitchen counter, untouched.But the air felt different and it was pressing down on him like a weight on his chest.Alejandro had tried his best to keep his life moving, at least the effort behind it stopped him from going after Elise and keeping to the part of his promise. He went to meetings, read reports, even signed off new contracts. But none of it felt real. The documents were blurry, the numbers meaningless. Sometimes, he’d catch himself staring at his phone for minutes — no messages, no missed calls — yet he couldn’t stop checking.He hadn’t heard from her. Not once.And he knew that was exactly what she wanted.E

    The case against Clara Stanton had reached its judgment in less than two weeks.Lucas had stood in court as Alejandro’s representative, barely keeping his composure as the final sentence was pronounced. Not because it was not in their favour. It was. Clara was guilty as it was clear as day. The evidence was enough and Lena’s testimony had sealed it. But somehow, Charles Stanton had managed to manipulate the case in his favour or better put, Clara’s favour, as he took the fall for it.He had managed to convince the court that Clara was merely a minor in the John’s case, and a misguided young woman swayed by psychological instability in the fire incident. And for that reason, the judge hesitated, pitying Clara, who sobbed continuously, as if she had been falsely accused. But judgment had to be passed, and Charles Stanton volunteered himself. Why he did that was unknown. Yet, it was not surprising as he and Margaret had only ever enabled Clara since she was a child.One clear thing w

    The last time Alejandro met with the doctor, she had informed him that Elise needed a good amount of rest. Even as she had been doing that for the past week, he made sure to stay with her so she rested enough. By this time, she was off oxygen and even the urine catheter. Her day was mostly spent bathing in the morning, which Alejandro helped her with, sitting up for a while, having breakfast, and taking a small amount of medication and supplements. She also walked a bit around the hospital with Alejandro’s guidance for fresh vitamin D and stretches. Nap, lunch, and every other thing that followed till dinner, sleep, and repeat the cycle. Elise had not voiced it out but she was very excited knowing that her discharge was in the talks. Yes, the hospital was an environment that allowed for healing in its form but the anxiety that the other part came with, did not exactly help her case as an almost 8-months-pregnant woman. “Where are you going to now?”“I want to pee.” Elise rolled he

    On the white sheets where Elise lay, the morning light still managed to cast pale stripes on her face through the blinds. The skin of her face still looked weak and bruised, and her lips dry, but she had regained consciousness after a series of processes the doctors had gone through. It had only been for a while, less than five minutes. But now that Elise slept again, Alejandro sat by her side with much relief, watching the rhythm of the rise and fall of her chest that now moved steadily.The only time he had left her side since they brought her in was when the doctors had ‘forced’ him to leave so they could do their job, but even then, his eyes lingered on her through the window blinds. Now she was much better. Still weak, but visible progress. Alejandro’s hands were clasped and his eyes were fixed on her when her eyelids fluttered open. “Elise,” Alejandro murmured, brushing her hair away from her face.Her eyelids fluttered again, and when her gaze met his, his face lit up to t

    Lena was still in her thoughts when the door burst open, pushed with force by Alejandro. He stormed inside, his presence filling the room instantly. His shirt sleeves were rolled up, with his tie askew and his hair disheveled like he had run his hands through it too many times. “Lily—” His voice cracked as his eyes landed on the bed. In two strides, he was at her side, dropping to his knees. “Elise.” He took her hand carefully, as if afraid the slightest pressure would hurt her. His thumb brushed over her knuckles, his forehead pressing against her arm. “No… no, no, no.” His shoulders shook once, a tremor he didn’t bother to hide. In front of him was his whole world, lying still beneath an oxygen mask. Behind him, Lucas entered and his eyes scanned until they landed on Lena. He moved to her with restrained urgency. “What happened? How are you with the boss’s wife? Lena’s throat tightened, but she forced herself to meet his gaze. “I already mentioned that my name is Lena.
