All Chapters of Where Broken Hearts Meet: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Eugene’s POV“Careful, there’s a step,” Cassidy said as she helped me into the house. She led me to the lounge and placed me on one of the sofas. I don’t know how I got tipsy so fast. I mean, I only drank two glasses of rice wine. Ugg, my head hurts.Cassidy walked into our kitchen and returned with a glass of water. She sat next to me as she handed the water to me. “Here. This might help a little bit.”I gratefully took the glass of water from her and took my first sip. It somehow helped me, but I still felt horrible. Ugg, what did they put in that rice wine?I gulped down the rest of th

Eugene’s POVIt has been a month since Rose’s accident, and she was still in a coma. Eric phoned my parents the night things spiralled out of control, and I sat on the hospital floor wailing. My parents rushed over as soon as they could. Needless to say, they were shocked to see the state I was in. My mother sat on the floor, comforting me. Father stood next to me and placed his hand on my shoulder to comfort me in his own way. I was a complete mess – still am. I did not want Rose’s parents to find out about what had happened, but mother insisted that they had to know. I know I was being selfish, keeping everything to myself to protect myself from the judgements I would receive from them. Luckily, Melissa was still in Paris, so my mother phoned her instead. It just so happened that she was having dinner with them when my mother called her. If I knew anything, it was that Melissa would try her utmost t

Rose’s POVIt’s been nearly six months since I’ve been released from the hospital. The doctors kept me there for supervision for two weeks to make sure I was stable to be living my life again. After they took the bandages off my head, the blow to my head was still visible. The doctors told me that it would take about three more months for the wound to my skull to heal completely. So, I went for monthly checkups to make sure it was healing correctly. I also received my medicine for it during those checkups. The doctors also put me on anti-shock medication, saying it would help prevent any side effects from my blow to my head.I was grateful that I could receive such good treatment from the doctors. Eugene made sure that they took great care of me. He was also back to being himself, albeit more considerate and concerned for my well-being than he was before. Me

After about a fifty minutes drive, we arrived at the harbour. The taxi driver didn’t want to go further into the vicinity. He dropped me off at the nearest place he could stop. I climbed out of the car, paid him, and watched as he drove off back into the city. I turned around and studied the harbour. I get why he didn’t want to go further because this was an abandoned harbour and no doubt someplace where the mafia people gather to collect their shipments. Now, if I wanted to commit a crime, this would be the place I would go.I took a deep breath and entered the vicinity. I couldn’t hear anything except my footsteps that echoed as I walked. It was high tide, so the ocean didn’t even move, and there were no seagulls in the sky. Everything was completely silent. I walked until I found a clearing where I saw Cassidy standing

Rose’s POVI woke up to a throbbing pain in my right shoulder and a heartbeat monitor beeping. The sudden bright light that filled my vision as I opened my eyes was enough to make me blind. I squinted my eyes as I studied the room I was in and sighed in relief when I realized I was back at the hospital. We’ll more in the hospital than at the hospital if I studied my situation correctly.I groaned as I tried to sit up in the bed, the pain from my shoulder now spreading to the rest of my arm. Ugg, what is this pain?I looked towards my arm and noticed it was bandaged and hanging in a sleave. Oh, yeah. That right. I was shot. Yesterday? Two days prior? I don’t know how long I’ve been knocked out, so I’ll have to check the date on my phone.
