“Who are you? Rachel asked again when she saw that Xander wasn't replying but only looking at her dumbfounded. It wasn't as if she didn't recognize him, she recognized him quite well because she already processed all of Araceli’s memory as she knew he was the Xander that betrayed and set Araceli up.
That scum!
“Araceli, What did you mean by “who am I?” I'm your fiance!” Xander replied as he frowned. What’s wrong with her?
Is she playing?
Why is he acting like she didn't remember him?
Did she remember and play him? He had no choice but to do it so he would be able to break his engagement with her and marry Alice.
His parents would never allow him to dissolve his and Araceli’s engagement because their parents are good friends and they've been engaged since they were children.
So the idea about dissolving has to come from Araceli.
That's why she can not blame him, he was doing this because he wanted to be with his true love. His Alice didn't agree with this at first because she didn't want to hurt her best friend until he told her that it's the only way they can be together.
Even on that day, she was still begging him that they can find another way. so she can't blame her either.
They were both forced to do this to her.
Rachel frowned when she heard his reply, fiance indeed.
What kind of fiance plot with his fiancee’s best friend and set men up to rape her.
That kind of fiancee, she would rather not have!
“I don’t know you,” Rachel said and held her forehead as if she was having a headache as she tried to remember him.
When one of the staff stationed outside heard her reply, he quickly went to call the doctor.
Miss didn't recognize her fiance even when he showed his face. They all thought that perhaps she would recognize him when she saw him, that was why they allowed him to go in.
He quickly rushed to the doctor’s office to inform him because Xander has a bad temper and he might start throwing things around.
When the doctor saw him enter, he recognised him as one of the guards that The Garcias left in their daughter's hospital room and was immediately alarmed.
Did something happen to Miss Garcia?
Oh shit!
If something happened to her, even tens of him can’t pay for it.
“Mr, what is it? What happened?” The doctor immediately stood up and approached the guard anxiously.
“Miss fiance is around and miss didn't remember him, we thought she would remember him when she saw his face so we allowed him in, but she didn't. So I came to call you to explain to him.” The guard quickly explained to the doctor.
Instantly relieved that nothing major happened, the doctor heaved a sigh of relief.
“The young man that brought her here?” The doctor asked. “He’s back?”
“Yes, he is back, and he has a short temper. He can start throwing things.” The guard quickly.
“Okay let's go.” The doctor replied and took his coat from the peg and ushered the guard out of his office.
“What did you mean by not recognizing me, Araceli? I brought you to this hospital!”
That was the conversation the doctor and the guard heard immediately when they entered, the other guards stationed by the door already entered and were pleading with Xander to leave.
“Mr Xander?” Xander heard a calm voice calling his name and turned around and saw a doctor at his back.
“Yes?” He replied with a frown.
Why is a doctor here?
“Mr Xander, the patient is diagnosed with amnesia and your attitude towards her right now is not beneficial to her health, so I will have to ask you to leave this hospital room.” The doctor responded.
“Amnesia? Like she didn't remember anything?” Xander asked presumably.
Wouldn't that be better?
If she didn't remember anything, that means she didn't remember the setup and how she almost died that day.
That’s good!
“Not everything, she remembers the little man here” The doctor gestures to Ace.
Ace then looked up at smirk at Xander as if saying you see she didn't remember you because you are a bad person.
“She didn't remember her parents too, which came as a surprise to them too, so it's not as if she didn't remember only you.” The doctor concluded with a smile.
“Did you remember what happened to you? I brought you here when I saw you in a basement not far from your office. Can you explain what happened to me? We have to bring those mean people to justice.” Xander said to Rachel in a comforting and caring voice.
Rachel was astonished at this act, she almost shouted omg, this man right here should be awarded Oscar for his performance.
Why wasn't he even an actor rather than a businessman? He would have been a fantastic actor.
No wonder Araceli wasn’t aware of his hypocritical attitude.
She wouldn't have noticed too if she didn't receive Araceli’s memories.
But no worries, she had received her memories and she will make sure that Xander and Alice got to hell and back.
“I don't remember anything about it.” Rachel tried to sound as convincing as she could.
Let him believe that she didn't remember anything, so she can deal with them accordingly.
“Do you remember Alice? She's your best friend from childhood. You should remember her.” Xander urged.
“Alice?” Rachel stated.
She can't pretend she didn't know Alice at all. She would be suspicious of her.
“Yes, Alice. Do you remember her?” Xander asked again.
Seeing her confused face, Ace butted in. “Sister, You don't remember Alice? Alice always buys me toys and plays with me anytime she comes to our house.”
Rachel looked at Ace’s face and saw him looking at her expectantly, she can't help but groan inwardly.
Why he got to look at her with that puppy face?
"Araceli..""Yandel…Cole…""Sorry for being late your honor.." Araceli said with a confident smirk. All three of them walked in and it felt good, everyone had their jaws hanging down and eyes bulging out. Mrs Garcia was already on her feet about to run to hug her daughter while Amy stood there in tears. Ricky, Ben and Mariah were all on the same row, jaws hanging down in surprise. Emily and Nathan were totally unmoved instead, smiling proudly at their brother in a well tailored suit with Araceli by his side and Cole in jeans and black T like he always wore."And sorry for not being late as you guys thought I was.." Yandel said smiling at the crowd but especially at the man who was in a gray tailored suit and his hair was drawn back and held together by gel sitting beside Alice and Xander. The whole Miller family had a missed reaction but one of them in particular had his eye out of his socket more than the rest."Order court!! I will not condone such an insolent act in my court!!" He
Rachel"The Millers!!!" I yelled but paused again."Wait, they actually aren't the only ones you know…they are actually more of them, the Preston's, even the Azariah and I know all of the Xander's investments and none if it has nothing to do with the news outlets. I have gone through his papers before, his original documents that he had locked in a safe, that's how I knew he wasn't that smart to pull off all that happened," I told him my face dropping. What could Mister Douglas Miller, Alexander's father possibly want from us, that he would need me dead. Whoever this person was, has a good reason to kill me or want me dead but he also didn't make any sense.As for my father, not even I knew of the several women he has gone around with that my mother was very much aware of, but no one knew exactly why he did it. Sleeping with a married man's wife. So Mr Miller could have his reason for doing it, each of the Miller were suspects now and even Alice."Look, go freshen up okay, clean yours
Rachel"Hmm, you seem to like this place a lot huh.. Maybe you could join me, we would make a fun pair…" A familiar voice joked beside me. The familiarity of the voice was enough to spread chills all over my body, at the same time, soothe the burning feeling at the back of my head. It felt like my eyes were open yet closed, I could see her but I couldn't see anything else, just her."Araceli…" I called her name lightly before I felt my chest burn."Am I dead this time, did i make it this time around??" I asked her, looking at her smile so pretty at me, it was almost like staring at my reflection but the prototype. Even by mere looking at her I could see how much different she looked from me, she looked sharper while I was much more blunt on the edges "Isn't that a little narcissistic?? Staring and admiring me when I'm you.." She teased as I rolled my eyes in reflex."There's no way I'm you. I asked before who I was here and you never gave me an answer but now I see the answer clear a
"This is taking too long, we need to check up on him. I mean how long is it gonna take for the police and back up to get here?? Acting like we have the who goddamn day doing nothing but sitting down looking pretty and empty as hell," She looked at her mom hoping her whinig was going to get to her she was going to try and tell her to go in there and ask what's going on."You need to take a chill pill okay, for all we know, he got bigger fish to fry and you going there will just be getting in his way and taking up all his planned tattics and throwing them away. So no, Araceli, you are going to seat your impatient self down and wait till he is back," She continued typing and face timing on Ace's laptop since it was the only laptop available. For the past thirty minutes, she had been trying her best to just sit calm and enjoy the silence and sound of keyboard clicking but it was getting suffocating.It was already passed twenty five minutes and he wasn't back yet and he was yet to contact
Xander"Watch where you are going bro!! F!ck" My shirt had a little of starbuck strawberry shit on me and I knew with in seconds, I was going to start feeling so sticker and uncomfortable.I spilled several curses as I walked from my private gym to Where I was suppose to meet Alice. I don't know why of all places she couldn't just choose some where we could both be comfortable with a little less human interact."Hey, hey...Mr Miller right?" The man who ran into me came back and I held myself from groaning out loud. What the fuck does he want for fuck sake. I'm just trying to get to my meet up hoping I get lucky with her today because she has been acting extra weird ever since Saturday evening we had a fall out. She barely replied my text and after I sent a whole bunch of texts, she sends a cool or fine. It became increasingly over bearing so I decided to come to the gym and put some of my frustration into lifting some irons and honestly, it actually does work.Out of like ten, I was
They were only half way through watching lilo and stitch which Ben has probably watched for the twentieth time in the past four months. He still had the fire to watch it again, which was honestly amazing. Lilo and Stitch was a classic but Ricky was already tired of seeing it and was beginning to get really pissed off at Stitch's voice. It sounded like a really REALLY bad recording from the past, even though it was used as an alien voice, it was still really annoying to listen to.He decided to adjust his position in Ben's warm arms but found out that he had already slept off, and he was the one who changed the channel. Ricky tried to stand up to put the TV off and drink some water but he coiled his arms around him tighter and turned over so they weren't facing the light of the TV. Ricky stretched for the remote and turned off the TV so that they could sleep well.Just a few minutes after he made this life changing important decision as he himself was feeling really exhausted from the
