All Chapters of The Girl He Didn't See: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Right as the world started to fade, Daniel's grip loosened."Get lost!"Noemi hit the floor with a thud.She gasped for air, coughing like her chest was about to explode.Daniel didn't flinch—just pulled out a handkerchief and wiped his hands like she was dirt.Then came the heat. Her nose burned, then bled—fast. Thick, dark red, with a sharp pain stabbing through her skull.She wiped at her face, hand coming away soaked in blood.Panicking, she stumbled into the restroom, hiding before he could noticed.She didn't even know how long she stood at the sink, rinsing and breathing through it, waiting for the bleeding to stop.When she finally stepped back out, the room was completely empty.A faint smile flickered on her lips—then the tears came, slipping down her cheeks.It was still pouring. Daniel was gone. No ride. No goodbye. Just... gone.She had no choice.So she called Carmen—Daniel's mom.The second Carmen heard she was stranded at a bar, she freaked and sent their

Lying alone in the big, empty bedroom, Noemi couldn't stop replaying that nightmare from two years ago.Her family had set her up with Daniel, and she had no clue he was already head over heels for someone else—Ivanna.The second their engagement went public, Ivanna dipped. Daniel had chased her all the way to the airport, wrecked his car, and came out blind.Noemi had stayed by his hospital bed, watching him sleep, feeling like her chest might cave in from the weight of it all.She even flew across the globe to find Ivanna—only to catch her getting married.Noemi had begged her. Promised to back off if she'd just come home and take care of him.But Ivanna had stared her down, stone-cold.'He's blind. Why the hell would I go back?'That look? Burned into Noemi's brain.Now Ivanna was back. Just like that. Why?Noemi rolled over, checked the time, and got up to fix Daniel's meds.She paused outside the study—voices. One was Daniel. The other? Raul Pedron, his childhood best f

Ivanna lay pale on the hospital bed, blood soaking through the bandages on her waist.The doctor didn't sugarcoat it. "She's crashing. Massive internal bleeding from a ruptured kidney. We need a transplant. Fast. Find a match—if anyone—"Daniel shoved Noemi forward. "Use hers."She tried to fight back, but he didn't flinch. He barked at the bodyguards, and they dragged her off.Blood tests came in. The doctor's face lit up. "It's a match! We can save her!"Daniel didn't miss a beat. "Use hers. I'm her husband—I'll sign."And just like that, the first time he ever owned up to being her husband... was to hand her over like a spare part for Ivanna."No. I'm not doing it. I don't care who needs it—it's not going to her."Noemi pushed back, but her body was wrecked. Still, she forced the words out, jaw tight.No way was she giving a part of herself to that backstabbing snake.She'd kept quiet for too long. Always scared of hurting Daniel. But now? Screw that."I went abroad to fi

Juan wiped his face and let it all out."The corneas used in your surgery—it came from Mrs. Gomez. Ms. Mendoza took her away after."Daniel froze. The words hit like a punch.He was pale and shaking.His voice came out sharp. "She think I'm supposed to be thankful for that?" He scoffed. "She just disappears?"Who told her to give that much? To throw herself away like that? And walking around right after surgery—was she trying to kill herself?After a beat, he muttered, "Stay on her friend.""Yes, sir."Juan, who'd always felt Noemi gave too much, suddenly saw a flicker of something—maybe regret, maybe care. Either way, he knew his boss meant it.***Ivanna, now out of intensive care, made sure her new room was right next to Daniel's.She floated in wearing a hospital gown, all sugar-sweet smiles, brushing her fingers along his cheek."Daniel, it's so good to see you recovering."She tilted her head, cheeks going all soft-pink."I'm really looking forward to your seeing me

"That's a joke, right? You're lying." Daniel's breath hitched, chest heaving like he could force the truth back down. "Where's Noemi?!"Vera was done playing nice. She marched up, photo clutched tight, eyes locked on him like a storm closing in."She's right here. Isn't this who you came for? You and Ivanna—sick match made in hell. Same day, both healed. Noemi—God, that idiot—gave up her kidney, her freaking corneas, just so you could both play happy ending. That's what you wanted, right?"Her voice shook, hands clenching the frame like it was holding her together.Daniel winced. "A kidney doesn't kill someone..."She didn't blink. But she saw it. Not confusion. Guilt.Her voice cracked. "You KNEW she gave you her corneas?"Daniel said nothing.And that silence? It screamed."You bastard!"Vera set the photo down, then slammed into Daniel, fists flying at his chest. Tears streaked her cheeks, fury snapping through her."She gave you EVERYTHING, and you never even asked how s
