{PS: One day before the wedding}

What felt like forever passed, with the sky darkening, before the door to the bedroom opened, and he walked in.

The man behind the mask.

I gasped, not believing my eyes.

What was he doing here? What was someone like him doing in the same room as me?

I forced myself to get up from the floor, using the bed as my support.

The closer he walked towards me, I felt like my heart was being devoured and ripped out of my chest, because of his piercing red eyes that w

  • The Naive Lady Is Gone: No Longer The Docile Fool   Chapter 68) An imposter.

    As I stood in front of the VIP ward room, I pushed the door open and entered in a hurry. “Where is the patient, nurse Felic-”. I did not finish my words after I saw the way the people in the ward froze and stared at me. I looked awkwardly at them. “Oh. This must be the wrong ward”. I said, before I turned and smirked, pretending that I was leaving the ward. “Wait
 aren't you
 aren't you, Doctor Gina?”. I turned to the lady in a white shirt after she asked me. As I saw the lady in the white shirt adjusting her glasses, my eyes drifted to the nurse whose hands were shaking. I frowned. “What is wrong, doctor?”. Daisy, who was lying in bed, asked me, after noticing the displeased look on my face. But, rather than reply to her, I walked towards the nurse who tried her best to avoid making eye contact with me. I halted in front of her. “Are you supposed to be here?”. I asked her. “Ye- yes, Doctor Gina”. The nurse replied to me, thus making the frown on my face deepen.“Look into my

  • The Naive Lady Is Gone: No Longer The Docile Fool   Chapter 67) Lewis: “Pathetic”/ I will protect you enough to crush you.

    “Let go of me right now, Lily. Allow me to put this trash in his place!”. I declared. I knew my Mom said ‘no cuss words’. But, I just could not help it. Neither could I get myself to calm down. “Please, Lewis. Mom isn't going to be happy about this”. “This is our first day of school. Do you want our Mom to change her mind and make us stay back at the boring estate with Aunt Maddie and Clara?”.My face changed a bit sour upon listening to what Lily said to me. “You see?”. She let go of my hand and pointed a finger directly at my face as she said to me. She continued to say to me, “... I know you don't want that”. I sighed in defeat because she was right about that. “You are always so soft. When are you ever going to grow thick skin, sister?”. I asked her as I slightly shook my head at her. Because of her, I finally calmed down and did not plan on hitting the jerk. Yet. “Ah”. Philip groaned on the floor. “He- help me up! Can't you see that I am in pain?!”. He yelled, and in a hur

    “Isn't this great news, Gina?”. Clara asked me, and judging by the tone of her voice, I could tell just how happy she was. I remained quiet, and even after the doors to the elevator opened up, I remained standing still for a few seconds, before I actually got out of the elevator. “Well, why aren't you saying anything?”. She asked me. “Oh. Nothing. I am just happy for you, Clara”. I replied to her, but I still found the news very shocking. I soon arrived inside my office and went to sit on the sofa. “Is there anything else you want to tell me?”. I asked her. “Huh. Something else? Like what?”. She asked me. “Oh. Then, I am sure you don't mind me hanging up the call”. I said. “Wait-!”. Clara tried to say, but I had hung up the call on her and left my cell phone aside on the sofa. Then my hand reached out, and my fingers massaged my temple.“He is her new boyfriend?”. I said. The words sounded foreign in my lips. I sighed and rose from the sofa. I went ahead to stand next to t

  • The Naive Lady Is Gone: No Longer The Docile Fool   Chapter 65) A new boyfriend.

    “Get up. I did not ask you to kneel down before me”. I tried to help him back to his feet, but he was hell-bent stubborn on kneeling down, as he continued to plead with me and even went as far as bowing before me.“No. There is no need for me to get up if you are not going to accept my request, Doctor Gina”.“Please. You must help me save my daughter's life. She is the only family I have got”. He pleaded with me, and after I saw some tears landing on the floor, I paused and did not try to help him up anymore. I sighed and turned away from him, before I bit my lower lip and clenched my fist.To think that he had been pushed to this miserable point because he did not have the money to treat his daughter, thus making her life hang by a thread.‘Carlos, you bastard. It wasn't enough that you stole my mother's company, and now, you have the audacity to treat her loyal employee poorly?’. I almost let out a sinister chuckle because I knew that what was coming for him was going to be way wor

  • The Naive Lady Is Gone: No Longer The Docile Fool   Chapter 64) Feeling guilty.

    “A date?”. I was stunned. “Yes. So, call me back later. Bye”. She said to me. Her voice sounded like a whisper, and it also sounded like she was in a hurry to cut me off. “Wait! Who are you on a date wi-”. I did not get to finish asking her my question, because my cell phone beeped. It turned out that she had hung up the call on me. I frowned and dialed her phone number. But, she was not picking up. “On a date?”. I muttered, as I tried to understand the gravity of her words. It was shocking to me that, out of the blue, she had someone to date. “Clara. You will never change”. I shook my head and decided not to think much about her, because I knew she would eventually tell me the unlucky one who was her date. I sighed, before I kept my cell phone aside and rested my head on the seat. Some minutes later, I sat up. “I will take it from here, guys. You can come down from the sienna”. My words made the bodyguard in charge of driving the sienna, park the sienna off the road. Then, a

    “Nothing. I mean nothing, Mrs Mirabel. But, I would have to decline”. I said to her without a smile on my face. “But-”. “I am certain I came here for my kids' registration and not for something else. Are you trying to force me?”. I asked her with darkened eyes. “No. Not at all”. She said with a chuckle, but I knew it was a forced chuckle. She was not happy that I had refused her. But did I care about her feelings? Not even a single bit or in the slightest. I cared nothing about how she was feeling. A knock was suddenly heard on the door, making everyone turn in the direction of the door. “Come in!”. Mrs Mirabel said to the person, causing the door to swing open, and a young lady walked in holding some files in her hands. She went ahead to Mrs Mirabel and gave her the files. “Here is what you asked for, Mrs Mirabel. The registration files”. After handing over the files, she turned to me and her eyes sparkled. “Doctor Gina, can you please sign my book?”. She cam

    “I have a very important announcement to say. Or rather, I have something important I must say”. I broke the silence in the dining room and said, causing all eyes to turn to me as they stared at me. “Huh. An important thing to say? What is it?”. Clara asked as she directed the spoon containing the

    We arrived in the dining room, and as everyone returned to what they were once doing (Before I asked them to leave the living room in the first place), I went to the kitchen to meet Clara. “What are you doing?”. I asked her, as I rested my body against the door frame. “Dinner. I am making dinner

    I found myself on the balcony, with my arms resting on the railings, as I sighed over and over again. I suddenly began to look back to the person I used to be, before I looked at the current me and asked myself, “Am I cruel? Have I become so cruel?”. I wondered, but looking back at how everyone t

    I returned to the living room. “Maddie, can you be a dear and take Lily and Lewis to their room? And I would appreciate it if you remained there with them and did not come out”. I said, causing them to stare at each other's faces, before they returned their attention to me. It was clear that th
