Celestine blinked and looked around. White ceilings and pale walls were the things she first saw. Although it is too much work for her to just simply raise her hand, she still tries to do it. She lift her arm with all the energy that is left in her then she looked at the back of her hand. The back of her hand was swollen from the needles that pierced through her veins. She winced when she abruptly move it. After feeling the pain, it was only then that she realized that she is still in the hospital. She is safe. That’s what she keeps reminding herself. To this day, she is still worried about what happened to her. In fact, she no longer hoped that she would survive when she was about to lose her breath underwater. That is why she is very grateful to Lord God for saving her, that regardless of what happened she is still alive. "Good afternoon, Miss Celestine. My name is Carla, and I'll be the nurse in charge to take care of you until you get discharged," said the woman on her side tha

"W-What are you saying?" Celestine said in disbelief after hearing what Lander had said. She could hardly believe it. From the beginning, she becomes honest about how she felt about Lander. He knows that she can't reciprocate the love he's giving so when she heard what he said, she couldn't make herself believe it because it seemed like Lander didn't accept her rejection of him before, something she didn’t expect he would do. She put the bracelet on the bed then she sternly looked at Lander. "We've talked about this right?" "Yeah, but let me at least explain myself first before concluding anything," he said, desperately wanting her to listen to him. "You are probably the only woman who will make me feel like this but don't get me wrong. I'm not saying all these things to still pursue what I feel for you but me, to finally talk to you as someone who finally accepts his defeat." He takes a deep breath. "I know this is all wrong timing because you're in the hospital right now and w

"Boss, we're just confirming if you will stay in the resthouse overnight because Miss Celestine is looking for you since she woke up," Nicholas said to Vincent over the phone while his eyes were on the empty hallway of the hospital. He is standing because his body ached from sitting on the stainless bench for hours while he is trying to sleep in a sitting position. After minutes of trying, he failed and so he just decided to stand. He heard from other associates that Vincent is planning to stay overnight at the resthouse and since he doesn't know if it was true, he needed to confirm it himself because Celestine is looking for Vincent and he couldn't find the right excuse to answer her question. Vincent rests his elbows on the railings of the balcony while he is staring blankly at the scenery in front of him. He let out a deep sigh. "She's looking for me?" he asked to confirm. "Yes, Boss. She's been looking for you since she woke up. She's asking me questions I don't know how

"Here, keep the change," Sophia said as she was handing a money on the cashier. The cashier smile at her and shook her head afterwards. "Ma'am, no need. We'll make this drink free for you." "No, seriously I want to pay for it," she insisted but the woman shook her head again and hold her hand that is holding the money then the cashier pushed it gently back to her. "No, I insist, ma'am. We'd like to give you a free drink for bravely saving Miss Celestine. We don't know what could have had happened if you didn't save her. It's a relief to know that she is fine now," the cashier said then she let out a deep sigh. "What do you mean?" she asked then put the money back on her pocket. "Sir Vincent is here now to investigate what happened. He suspect that everything is not just an accident and there must be someone who drowned Miss Celestine—" "That's impossible! She did it herself. No one told her to save the ball. She got drowned because she choose to help," she blurted. It irritat

"Fuck that old fucking man," Kingston curse as he pressed the cotton on his wounds. He has no one to help him mend his wounds so he doesn't have a choice but to clean it himself. He bit his lower lip as he pressed the cotton even more on the deep cut on his right leg. He planned to meet Celestine tonight and he doesn't have any plans to cancel it even after what happened to him. All along he thought that Venedict is his real enemy but he was wrong because it was actually Victor. After the conversation he had with Victor he realized that he was the person who control Vincent for years and not Venedict. It was a mistake to not doubt Victor before and he is regretting everything now. He can now say that the things that he heard about Victor before was true. Victor is indeed far different from his younger brother, Venedict because unlike Venedict, Victor is most likely to do the things he wants without thinking of the innocent people that might get involve in the situation. He is spo
