While covering her ears to block out the noise, Alex yelled at the other end as soon as he heard the loud gunshot, “Diana, are you alright?!” Alex’s heart pounded loudly and he was frightened since he assumed that Diana was shot after she exclaimed, “What the hell!”“I’m fine,” Diana whispered as her heart was also pounding, but her quick reply caused Alex to heave a sigh of relief as he calmed himself down.“Okay, but was that a real gunshot?” Alex questioned his voice tinged with curiosity. Yes, he was certain that he heard a gunshot but he wasn't sure if it happened near Diana or not.As Diana opened her mouth to respond, a bullet penetrated into the wall before hitting her right on her thigh and it made her groan loudly in pain.Before she could even blink, three more bullets were triggered, but fortunately, she was quick to lay flat on the floor after receiving the first bullet.As soon as Alex heard Diana groan in pain after the second gunshot, he yelled at the top of his lungs

“Diana! Diana!” Alex snapped his fingers, jolting Diana from what she remembered.“What are you thinking about?” He inquired, causing Diana to fake a chuckle so that he would not get worried about her.“Nothing,” Diana replied, before she wrapped her arm around his elbow affectionately, while the car moved swiftly.“I thought I was going to die after getting shot, but look at me! I'm hale and healthy sitting next to my handsome husband,” she mumbled, snuggling up to Alex as she pecked his cheek. Receiving a peck from her as their surroundings fell silent, Alex inquired, “Are you thinking about those gossips?”“No,” Diana replied quickly, almost too quickly, causing Alex to realize that she was lying.Gently, he took her chin in his hand and muttered, “Whatever those nurses said is false. You are not a bad luck or a witch. Immediately you stepped into the villa, you helped Dad to recover and you changed my personality.”“You loved me even though I pretended to be a poor, miserable imp

“Come in!” Alex uttered loudly, not wanting to be disturbed by a continuous loud knock.Creak!The door opened slightly, revealing Bella who walked into the room majestically. She was dressed in a short, red gown, looking beautiful thanks to the massive makeup that she applied on her face.Engrossed with the work he was doing, Alex didn't even notice when Bella walked in, even though her intoxicating perfume wafted through the air. “Theo, did you get any information?” He questioned, still engrossed with his work. He assumed that it was Theo who walked inside the room, because he instructed Theo to report any information he gets about the recent car accident that made Diana end up in a coma.Meanwhile, Bella’s lips downturned when she heard him say, “Theo.”“So he did not notice me,” Bella muttered to herself, before thinking of a way to make Alex notice her.As soon as an idea struck her mind, she continued to walk gently towards the table before Alex, then, she closed his laptop to

“I am not your maid, you crippled man!!” Bella shouted, her voice ringing out, loud and sharp, which caused Rex to gasp in shock.He had never received such a loud, rude statement from anyone. Even Alex would never yell at him that way, let alone a stranger. “What did you just say?” He questioned quickly.“I said I'm not your maid, so stop instructing me like a maid!”“How dare you speak to me rudely! You also called me a crippled man... tsk tsk tsk, do you know what I'm capable of? No one in their entire miserable life would ever speak to me like that, even if it were Diana, she would help me without grumbling at all!” He fired back, causing Bella to let out an evil chuckle as she bent to equalize their heights.“Diana? Are you seriously bringing that garbage up? Hehe... Oh well, crippled man, just in case you are not aware, your Diana is a vegetable right now, and she is useless. So, forget about her,” Bella replied firmly, sprouting to her feet as she folded her arms across her ch

“Huh?” Rex uttered, his eyes widening in disbelief as he was dumbfounded by the male escort’s statement.He was expecting the escort to help him, not smirk.“You know, you should just die after what you did to my parents,” the male escort hissed with, venom dripping from every word.But fortunately, the pain in Rex’s chest subsided as it allowed Rex to regain his voice. “Do I know you before?” Rex questioned cautiously, intending to not fuel the male escort’s anger.“No, you don't. But maybe after you die, you will remember who I am,” the male escort snickered, before pulling out a dagger.With that, fear struck Rex like lightning and he gasped in shock. Why would someone want to hurt him when he didn’t know what he had done wrong? His heart raced, but before the dagger could hit his stomach, he managed to summon strength, and he grabbed it, before he tried his best to push it away.Though, the male escort’s grip was very tight. He wrestled the dagger from Rex’s hand, then he attemp
