CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN: A Parting Gift

Raina was still sitting beside Maxton's bed, staring at his hands without blinking.Her mind was a whirlwind of thoughts and nothing seemed to be making any sense.She continued staring at his hands, the same hand she had held the entire drive back from that warehouse. She traced the lines of his knuckles slowly with her thumb, not thinking about it, just doing it, because her mind couldn't focus on anything else.Her mind kept going in circles and lots of questions filled her head.Why?That was the only question she couldn't get away from. Why would he do this?Things had been good between them. They had been building something real together, she had felt it and it was definitely not something she had imagined.Was it?She pressed her lips together and looked at the wall. She was tired in a way that went beyond just not sleeping. It was the kind of tiredness that settles in your bones and made everything feel slightly too heavy to carry.Suddenly, she felt a hot gaze on her face an

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWELVE: Prepare The Papers

As soon as Lorenzo and Carlos walked into the doctor's office. The middle aged man, Doctor Ramirez, was startled as they didn't knock. Dr. Ramirez was a very careful man. So when two intimidating men walked in. He looked up from his desk with the practiced calm of someone who had dealt with difficult families before.Twenty three years of being a doctor had taught him that being careful was always better. Patient confidentiality wasn't just a rule to him. It was the backbone of everything he did."Gentlemen, you can't just walk in here. If you want to schedule…." He said with a calm voice and a slight frown, making sure they didn't see he was intimidated."We're here to find out about Maxton Retroferd's situation," Carlos said and also introduced himself. “I'm his personal assistant and I need to understand what is going on with his condition."Dr. Ramirez folded his hands on the desk. "I understand your concern, but patient information is strictly confidential. I can't share medical

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN: His Mind Is Made Up

As soon as Raina finished speaking, she walked to a nearby seat and sat down, then she closed her eyes.Lorenzo stared at her for a few minutes and his heart clenched painfully as he couldn't do anything to make her feel better.He sighed and knocked on the room door, and didn't wait for an answer before he pushed the door open and walked in.Maxton was sitting up on the hospital bed, his eyes open, staring at the window and clearly lost in thoughts. When he heard the sound of footsteps behind him, he slowly turned to look but he didn't look surprised to see Lorenzo and seemed to have expected him to come. If anything, he looked like he had been expecting it.Lorenzo closed the door behind him, pulled the chair from the corner of the room, dragged it directly in front of the bed, and sat down. He didn't rush to start speaking, he just crossed one leg over the other, rested his hands on his knee, and looked at Maxton the same way two people look at each other when they both know exactl

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTEEN: One Last Look

The hospital hallway was quiet, but it didn't feel peaceful at all. Raina sat on the hard, cold floor outside Maxton's room. She had been there for almost half an hour now, just mindlessly staring at the opposite wall.She was initially sitting on one of the chairs in the hallway, but she felt awfully uncomfortable and the cold ground felt like a better option to calm her mind. She told herself she was just tired and needed a cold place to sit, but that was a lie. She was waiting….She didn't want to admit it, but every time she heard footsteps coming down the hall, she looked up, hoping it was him coming to find her.Lorenzo walked out of the room and she instantly recognized his familiar footsteps. His expression was tense and slightly upset, but when he saw Raina sitting on the floor, his face softened. He knelt down in front of her and sighed. He didn't want to tell her, but he knew he had to."Raina," he said, his voice very soft. "I tried and talked to him for a long time, but….

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN: A Finally Farewell

After leaving the VVIP ward, Raina went directly to the resting area, where Lisa was seated with Angelo in her arms.“Raina, are you okay?” Lisa asked when she saw Raina's red eyes.“I'm fine” She replied with a calm voice and squatted to check on the little boy.As soon as her hand touched his face, he quickly opened his eyes and his body trembled subconsciously.Raina felt a tightness in her heart as she couldn't even bring herself to imagine what he must have gone through, when he and Xander were in Evan's clutches.When he saw that Raina was the one that touched him, his eyes immediately filled with tears and he stretched out his hands towards her. She quickly held him in her arms and hugged him tightly.“Mommy…Mommy” He kept crying and calling her his Mommy repeatedly.Raina didn't bother to correct him as he was just a child that needed comfort. She also remembered that he had also addressed her as Mommy the first time she met him.She hugged him and continued patting his back g

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTEEN: The Long Awaited Lesson

As soon as the plane landed in the Valente estate, Raina got down with Angelo in her arms. He was still sleeping and was totally oblivious to everything that was happening around him.She looked up and saw her father and Gerald, who were obviously waiting for them.“Princess, you have suffered” Michael held her hand with a look of heartache, as soon as his wheelchair stopped in front of her.“Father, uncle Gerald” Lorenzo greeted them with a nod.Raina didn't say anything, she just stood there with an absent-minded expression.“Let's go in, we will talk after you have all rested” Michael said with a sigh.They all went into the villa and Raina took Angelo to the room opposite hers. She didn't even have time to reminisce about being back to the Valente family, after leaving because of Maxwell's cruelty.She carefully placed Angelo on the bed and covered him with the blankets. When she was sure that he was in a deep sleep, she slowly stood up and walked to her room.As soon as the door

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTEEN: See How Cruel The World Is

Bailey's cheek was burning. She could taste blood in her mouth and her head throbbed where her wound had reopened. But the pain in her body was nothing compared to the pain in her heart.She looked at Carlos like she didn't even know him anymore."You are heartless!" she screamed, pointing a shaky finger at him. "You know I love Maxton! You know how long I have loved him! But instead of helping me, you are helping that woman! You are helping Raina, the same woman who stole him from me!"Carlos's jaw tightened. "Bailey, that's enough.""No, it's not enough!" she shouted, tears mixing with the blood on her lips. "You don't care about my feelings at all! You never have!"Carlos's hand rose again, faster this time.SLAP!The third slap landed hard across her face. Bailey stumbled back, her cheek now swollen and red. She held her face, breathing hard, but she still didn't look sorry. She only looked angrier."I am sending you out of the country," Carlos said, his voice low and cold. "You w

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN: Break The Door

THREE DAYS LATER….Raina hadn't stepped out of her room for three days and she didn't eat or talk to anyone. She just stayed locked inside with the curtains closed, like she wanted the whole world to disappear.Lorenzo and Michael tried everything they could. They knocked, begged and even left food outside her door, but it stayed there until it got cold and someone came to take it away, untouched.On the evening of the third day, Lorenzo sat across from his father in the dining room, his food untouched too. His mind was only on his sister."Father, I can't keep doing this," Lorenzo said, rubbing his forehead. "If she doesn't come out by tomorrow morning, I am breaking that door down."Michael sighed heavily, his hand tightening around his wheelchair's armrest. "Give her a little more time, son. She just got divorced and is heartbroken.""It's been three days," Lorenzo said, his voice sharp with worry. "She hasn't eaten anything. Do you know what that can do to her body? I am not going

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETEEN: She Is Pregnant

Lorenzo scooped Raina up from the floor, cradling her limp body in his arms. She was so light like she had lost a lot of weight."Raina, wake up," he said, his voice shaking. "Raina, please."She didn't respond. Her head just rolled slightly against his arm, her face pale as paper."Lay her on the bed!" Michael shouted, already wheeling himself closer, his usual calm completely gone. "Quick, Lorenzo!"Lorenzo rushed her to the bed and laid her down gently. Michael's hands trembled as he pulled out his phone and dialed a number so fast his fingers fumbled twice."Jonathan, get here now," Michael said into the phone, his voice tight. "It's Raina…Something's wrong with her…Hurry."He didn't even wait for a response before ending the call. His chest rose and fell heavily as he stared at his daughter's still body.Jonathan arrived faster than anyone expected. He rushed in with his medical bag, immediately checking Raina's pulse and pressing his fingers gently against her wrist."She's extr

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY: A Witch Doctor

COUNTRY K…Three days had passed and Maxton had been fighting whatever poison was eating away at his body. Every day, he got a little weaker and he could barely stay awake for more than a few hours at a time now, and his skin had turned a sickly shade of pale.Carlos had taken over everything. The business meetings, the family matters, the decisions that needed to be made. He barely slept anymore, running back and forth between Maxton's room and his office, trying to keep the Retroferd empire standing.As soon as it was daybreak, Carlos walked into Maxton's room, expecting to find him asleep like the past few days. But this time, Maxton was awake, sitting up slightly against his pillows, staring blankly at the wall like his mind was somewhere far away.The door clicked shut behind Carlos, and the sound seemed to pull Maxton out of his thoughts. He blinked and turned his head slowly toward Carlos."Boss, you're awake," Carlos said, walking closer. Then he noticed the look on Maxton's
