Benita's demeanor changed like a switch. She burst into tears."I-I'm sorry, Secretary Kellie. We were just talking about last night, and I got overwhelmed. I didn't mean to fight her!"Vienna stared in disbelief. Just moments ago, she had seen a woman willing to murder her. Now she was crying like a child caught in a lie."That's right, Miss Kellie," Vienna said with a forced smile, adjusting her tousled hair. "I might've overreacted. Just a heated moment. Isn't that right, friend?"She patted Benita's hand gently. Benita flinched, her fingers curling into fists before she forced herself to nod.Kellie looked between them, skeptical but didn't push. "Well... since you're talking things out, I won't intrude."As she turned to leave, Vienna grabbed her wrist."Wait. You didn't finish telling me what really happened three years ago. Isn't that right, Benita?"Benita forced a laugh, the tension in her shoulders visible. "There's nothing to discuss. Ask President Clinton. I'm sure he'

---Alan had changed into a fresh, white dress shirt and now lay back on the cushioned medical bed positioned at the center of the private laboratory. The bed was slightly reclined, designed for comfort during long procedures, yet it did little to ease the heavy stillness in the air.The laboratory itself was nestled in the secured basement of one of Alan's secluded private estates, miles away from the bustle of the city. It was a pristine, state-of-the-art facility-equipped with every imaginable piece of advanced medical equipment. Cool, filtered air circulated silently through hidden vents, and sleek steel countertops gleamed under sterile white overhead lights. Walls lined with refrigeration units, labeled vials, and high-tech diagnostic machines gave the room a futuristic, clinical atmosphere.A high-resolution monitor just to Alan's left displayed his vital statistics in real-time, blinking rhythmically in calming shades of green and blue. Heart rate, oxygen levels, temperatu

--- It took them over four tense hours to reach the city. During the ride, Alan called Kellie for updates, then instructed Joel to head straight to the hospital. As they arrived, Alan swung the car door open before it fully stopped, urgency overtaking caution. Though his sight wasn't fully stable yet, he pushed the thought aside. He stormed into the hospital lobby with Joel close behind. Kellie spotted them and ran over, eyes widening as she noticed something missing-Alan's usual cane. "Sir... you... you can see again?" she asked, stunned. Alan didn't answer. His gaze cut straight to the nanny. "Where is she? What happened?" Kellie quickly filled him in on everything that happened. Alan's fists clenched, his fury bubbling over. He turned and slammed his fist against the wall, drawing the attention of startled nurses. "She dared... Benita-" he seethed, then paused. "What dosage was it?" "I checked the syringe. Just a regular vitamin. Nothing harmful," Kellie replie

Ten Minutes Later Vienna's eyelids fluttered. Then slowly-painfully-she opened her eyes, blinking under the soft light of the bedroom. Alan leaned in. "Vienna. You're awake. You're okay. Do you hear me?" She blinked again. Her lips moved, dry and slow. "A...Alan..." Then she passed out again, gently, her body relaxing for the first time. Alan's heart pounded. "She closed her eyes again! What's wrong?" Joel placed two fingers on her wrist and nodded. "She's stable. Her body is shutting down the toxin. She just needs rest. By afternoon, it'll be like none of this ever happened." Joel reassured. "But she still needs to be checked again later." Alan nodded slowly. "Now you need rest too," Joel said gently. "Your eyes-don't strain them." "I will rest when she wakes up. For now... just tell Kellie and the nanny to leave." Joel gave a small nod and stepped out. Alan turned back to Vienna, gently brushing his thumb over her hand. He refuse to let go. After everyone left

"I just don't want anything getting in the way of my studies for now," Vienna says softly.Alan nods gently at her, a faint smile on his face, masking his thoughts.Vienna hugs him, satisfied by how easily he agrees.But Alan's smile hides a different emotion-a quiet storm of possessiveness and frustration. She's so naive... He thinks to himself. She really believes contraceptives will work now? He exhales internally, his gaze lingering on her innocent face. So it's not another man I have to compete with-it's her education.He begins to strategize silently, already plotting a way to win against this unexpected rival."How about this," Vienna says again, "Let's take our relationship slowly and start from the beginning. We'll forget about last night and build something new. Then, when we've grown closer, we'll get married after I graduate. What do you think?"Her tone is hopeful, almost childlike in its simplicity.Alan's heart sinks, but he nods again, pretending to agree. His li
