*** *** ***Ryan entered the half opened gate, making a mental note to himself to fix the lock later on."What are you doing here?" Olivia stops him by the front lounge.Ryan outs his hands in his pocket, "Checking up on you, how's your health?""Better, you can go." Alina snaps.Ryan stood there, both of them studying each other.Olivia has a memory flash, to anyone and everyone, she's living a life befitting for a princess. No one knows what it was like to live in her house. It was night mares upon nightmares. Only Alex had an inkling of what she passed through and yet he used her as his scapegoat and did not bother coming to her rescue.She grew up knowing her mother had abandoned her here and was her father mistress.Her father, mad he couldn't have her mother for himself always yelled at her and didn't care she was being maltreated by his new wife. There was a time he told her he hated seeing her face because they reminded him so much of someone.She didn't need a soothsayer to t

*** ***Alina visits her new mini company, and true to her suspicion, everything about the company is withered, it's a surprise the building is still standing. The door creaked open, it sound resonating through out the building.Alina took few steps backwards as the stale air from the building hit her. The cleaning company she called arrived just in time.As they worked, Alina noted a few things..The so called restaurant is like a bar house where veterans came to recount stories, have a good laugh, coupled with a drink or two, and also play poker..For the first time in a while, Alina felt alive. She had a sense of purpose and responsibility, asides from Eleanor's hidden threat, she needed to prove her family wrong. A company without her would be missing out on so much."Hey..." Alina heard a new voice behind her, "I was told I'll find you here."Alina turned to see who it was"Olivia?" Alina asks, shock filling her features."Yeah, that's me." Olivia shrugs awkwardly. She knows Z

*** ***Alina needed no one to tell her that her husband is in the operation room.She got there in time to stop the securities that threatened to barge into the room."You can't go in there." She tells them, spreading her arms, he is a doctor and exactly who you need if you want your patient to survive.""We have professionals in there handling the situation, how can a mad man take charge?!" A nurse argues."My husband is not a mad man!" Alina fires back, "He is perfectly sane.""I doubt that. I saw him when he entered."Alina rolls her eyes and gives Adams a once over. He has the body at the build."Hey.!" She called him, "Are you a family of Asher?"Adams frowns at her, "Yes, and you are?""A friend. I need you to trust me and have these men back away. My husband can help your brother but he can only do that if he is not disturbed.""I don't know you, why should I believe you?""Because we both have Asher at our best interests."Adams eyes her and flashes his badge at the securitie

*** ***"Hey mama!" Zara said over the phone, a big smile played on her lips. ",How are you doing?""I'm okay." Hayley replies, "I am living best life without having been worried if I will survive the next day.""I'm so glad you are happy where you are.""I know right?!" Hayley giggled "and Clyde has been such a gentle man, I didn't know he has this side of him before."."When you get close to people, you see them or who they truly are." "Hmm..mmh." Hayley agreed, "what about Olivia, how is she faring?""She's out and now beating people, making them customers in a hospital.""Are you serious?""Never been more serious. I got her a job in a modeling company.... Long story cut short, the manager is currently in the hospital. Has been there for almost two weeks, looking at the possibility of going blind in an eye." Zara filled Hayley."What about Alina?""She is still hung up over her husband," Zara sneered, "But that is not going to last long anymore. I'll soon separate them from each

*** *** ***Eleanor stood outside the outside the hospital, pacing around.She couldn't step a foot in to the hospital without memory of sixteen years ago hitting her.Where she had seen her mother last was in the hospital, first at the ward where they tried to revive her mother and the next was the morgue, in the freezer.Since she had seen her mother's dead open eyes on the freezer staring back at her unseeingly, she has been afraid of the hospital. It got her traumatized and she had to heal all by herself, only that it didn't work. Her self healing process got her nowhere, if anything, things got worse.Miracle came in form of a person when she sighted Alina.She ran towards Alina who didn't notice her and skidded to a stop in front of her, "Alina!""Hey!" Alina looked really surprised to see her, "If you're looking for Ry....""I am not searching for Ryan now, it's another person. Are you going into the hospital?""Yes" Alina raised an eyebrow, do you want to come along?""No...
