Cassie’s Pov.

Kayla heaved a deep sigh. “I know you’ve got a soft heart and I don't want any of those comments to get to you.”

“Stella is a public figure so she sort of has some nasty fanbase who despise you in an imaginary way already. You don’t need to fill your thoughts with all of that. They don’t know you in person so they can’t tell how good you are.”

“And please, if you are feeling bad about it, just know that they are saying nasty things about Shawn and even members of our family so we are all in this together,” Kelvin spoke, while Shawn didn’t take his eyes off me. He was staring at me with so much concern and at the same time, I could see the anger on his face. It was almost as though he was holding back; trying so much to control his temper.

“Yeah. Our family has been in the public eye for a long time and stuff like this happens once in a while so we are used to these kinds of talks. Sorry, this is happening. But be rest assured that we will do all we can to protect you.”

    Cassie’s POV Even though the doctor just explained the importance of taking great care of myself, I couldn’t help with the way my heart raced. “What husband?” I whispered. The doctor frowned. “You’re not married? Don’t tell me that I have been tricked by a bunch of strangers.” “But they seemed sincerely concerned about you.” “It’s complicated,” I mumbled since I had no idea what to say to her. “It’s fine. You really do not have to say anything.” She assured. “The rest went home, but your husband stayed the night at the reception. They pleaded to see you last night, but I refused. I didn’t want anyone to get in the way of your recovery. Though I promised your husband that he would get to see you today.” “Regardless, the ball is in your court. I will only let him in if you want to see him.”“But I’m going to warn you, he seems like someone who would bring down this hospital if I refused him entrance.” “Is he angry?” I asked before I could help myself. I wondered why it mattered

    Shawn’s pov The next morning.“You look like shit!” My father said with concern as he sat beside me on the couch that I literally spent the night on. “I know, but I would rather be here than anywhere else,” I mumbled, massaging my right shoulder, which hurt a bit, while taking a glance at the bag that was comfortably seated on the table beside the couch that we were seated on. “Doreen packed that. She said you and Cassie would need all of it, and she sent her greetings.” “That’s thoughtful of her. Thank you.”“And thank you for your efforts in helping us find Cassie.” I added.“You have nothing to thank me for. I’m glad you remained strong through it all.” “Marriage is beautiful, but it doesn’t come without its challenges.” “I almost went crazy, Dad,” I mumbled. “I know! And I’m glad they are both okay. Sorry you had to experience all of that. And I hope that such doesn’t repeat itself.” “I hope so.” “By the way, I wanted to ask how far you’ve gone with the restraining order

    Shawn’s POV “He’s the husband?“ She said to Jace, probably trying to confirm before she passed on confidential information. “Yes, please.” He answered. Jace was already by my side, along with Kay and Kelvin. “Your wife will be fine.” She started. “And the baby?” Kay interrupted. “The baby is out of danger, too, which is usually not normal in situations like this. Your baby is a fighter.” “Gracious goodness!” I let out a deep sigh, ignoring the itchiness I was feeling in my eyes. While battling to hold back my tears, I heard someone sniffle behind me. Even without looking back, I already knew who that was. Kayla. She was scared as hell, yet she was trying to cheer me up. “Ca….can we go see her now?” Kelvin asked. “No, please!” The doc said almost immediately, and with a stern voice. I arched my brow at her. “But you said she will be fine. Is anything the matter?” “Yes, she will be. Her body has been under a lot of stress. She was rushed in here, bleeding, and in cases like

    Shawn’s POV My relief only lasted a second before my heart began to beat really fast against my chest, hearing Jace’s other statement.“You need me asap? Of course, there is nowhere else I would rather be. But is she okay?” I said into the phone, staring in return at my siblings’ worried eyes. “She is not in a good state. The ambulance should be here any moment now.” I felt a very deep ache in my chest. “Send me the address.” “Right away, Boss.” I heard, and almost immediately, the line went off.“How is she?” “What’s going on?” Kelvin and Kay asked respectively, as I stared at my phone in shock. “Jace is going to send the address. He said she’s not in a good state.” I felt a hand on my right shoulder, followed by a light squeeze. From the muscular feel of it, I could tell that it was my brother. “He didn’t say exactly what was going on,” I added absentmindedly. “Ca….can we come with you?” Kay said. I could hear the worry in her voice too. “Of course! We can’t leave him alon

    Shawn’s POV “I’m so sorry!” Kay whispered the moment I gulped down my third shot. I slammed the glass on the marble top, turned around, and went back to my prior position.“I guess this is a lesson not to live a reckless life or be in so many relationships because they will try to end you when you finally find the one for you,” I mumbled, staring straight but at nothing in particular. “I….I don’t know what to say. I’m torn between congratulating you and consoling you.” Kelvin confessed. “I also don’t know how you’ve managed to stay sane. I’m so terrified on your behalf.” “I do everything in my power to make sure Cassie feels better and safe. I still cannot believe that she chose to believe false things about me. If Doreen hadn’t found out by chance, then there’s a probability that I would never know that she’s carrying my child.”“I just want to set my eyes on her again. Then revenge against Brenda would come next.” “I’m not justifying Cassie’s actions, but for her to leave, then

    Shawn’s POV “I was so tense that I couldn’t drive. I had to wait for Kelv to come pick me up. Any news?” Kay’s voice came through. She joined me at the bar counter as I poured some alcohol into the glass.“Hey!” Kelv said as he came to a halt by my left while Kay occupied the space by my right. I could feel both of their eyes on me as I brought the glass to my lips and gulped down the shot.“Are you sure you don’t want us to involve the police?” Kay asked. I could hear the worry in her voice. I helped myself with one more shot, slammed the glass against the counter, then turned around. I rested my back against the marble counter, facing my siblings, who were both now standing before me. “I want to, but there is no way the police would be involved without it becoming a public issue. Cassie is so special to me. She has already faced so much humiliation. The last thing I wanna do is to give people more reasons to talk about her.” “As much as I wouldn't want that, I do not know how l
