Bianca's POV"Welcome back to our home." I said to Leo the moment I unlocked the house as we just got back.I pushed the door open and stepped aside to let him walk in first. His small luggage rolled behind him, the wheels squeaking slightly against the floor. He looked around, his eyes scanning the living room like he was trying to remember if everything was the same as before.It probably was. Nothing much had changed since he left. Except maybe me. I'd gotten more desperate. More willing to do whatever it took to get what I needed.We headed right to the sitting room, "please make yourself comfortable in the dining room." I said to him and so I served him the food we got from a restaurant on our way back.I'd picked up something quick on the drive home. Although nothing fancy, just enough to keep him fed and comfortable. A happy kid was a cooperative kid, and I needed Leo in the best mood possible for what was coming.He sat down at the table, his legs barely reaching the floor. I

Bianca's POVI held Leo's hand as we walked down the hospital corridor toward Brad's room. My heels clicked against the floor, echoing in the quiet hallway. Leo's small hand felt warm in mine, and I could feel him keeping pace beside me without any fuss.He was ready and I was ready too. So, I strongly believe that this was going to work this time.It was left with no choice, if not to work with and it had to work.We stopped right outside Brad's door. I took a breath, smoothed down my dress and looked down at Leo. He looked up at me with those attractive eyes, looking all calm and focused and not a trace of nervousness. Just pure professionalism wrapped up in a four-year-old body."Ready?" I whispered.He nodded once.I pushed the door open and stepped inside, pulling Leo gently with me.Brad was sitting up in bed, his back against the pillows. He looked better than the last time I'd seen him. Less pale but more alert. His eyes moved to us the moment we entered."Hi, Brad." I said, p

Nicole's POV"You ain't saying anything." Brad called my attention. "I asked if the detective has gotten back to you with regards to the findings on Bianca."His voice pulled me back from wherever my mind had wandered off to. I looked at him, at the way he was watching me with those eyes that looked like they missed nothing even with the amnesia.I hesitated a little before saying. "Nope, he has not. He is still on it, Brad." I said but I could bet that my demeanor said the stark opposite.The lie felt heavy and wrong on my tongue, like it didn't belong there. Because I know for a fact that Brad deserved the truth. He deserved to know what was happening in his own life, even if that truth was still complicated for now."Why are you lying to me?" Brad asked me.My heart skipped a beat immediately. How did he know? How could he tell? Or did he sense anything?"How exactly?" I asked him."You just said that the detective hasn't gotten back to you but your facial expression said the opposi

Bianca's POV "And how you expect one who you always feel is useless to come up with anything meaningful. Honestly, if you continue talking to me in the manner you do, then I wouldn't mind exposing all of these to whoever cares to listen because I have had it up to here…" He said, pointing to his neck. That moment, I felt attacked and knew the best I could do was to apologise to him. The word 'expose' was still ringing in my ears, very loud and clear, so it felt threatening. I couldn't let this spiral out of control. Not when everything was already falling apart. "Hi, sweet. It hasn't gotten to that yet, you know. Ok, I am so sorry if I have said something that didn't go down well with you. Please, forgive me. I am so sorry and I won't do that again, I promise." My voice came out softer than I'd intended…almost pleading. But I don't care about pride right now. I care

Nicole's POV "Hello?" I said the moment I saw the caller was detective Joe and then I placed the phone on my left ear. Brad was watching me intently. I could feel his eyes on me even as I focused on the call. It was as if he was trying to read whatever information was about to come through. "Hello. I wanted to pass a quick piece of information to you, real quick." The detective said at the other end of the call. His voice was urgent…more urgent than usual. That alone made my pulse quicken. "Ok, sir. Please go ahead." I tried to keep my voice steady and at the same time, tried not to let the nervousness show. But my free hand was already gripping the armrest of the chair. "From the latest information that I got on Bianca, she will come over to the hospital to see Brad by tomorrow. Or else there is eventually a change in her plans. R
