Phil frowned, he couldn't believe his eyes. Ryan knew Mrs Sonya? How? Their paths should definitely not cross, Mrs Sonya was a big swan and Ryan is a nobody, a frog at the bottom of the well. But reality was before him, he tried to fathom their relationship as he forced a smile to salvage the situation. "Oh Mrs Sonya my apologies I didn't realize he was one of your assistants," Phil smiled at the stunning beauty in front of him. It had to be so, he was probably just a worker and nothing more. Mrs Sonya humphed and waved her hands at him turning her back to look at Ryan. Ryan nodded at her, "Mrs Sonya," he smiled as she approached him. But Phil wasn't done, he was going to introduce himself to Mrs Sonya, this was his chance. Emily was besides him but he didn't care less, if he could get the attention of a beauty with such a status then who was Emily? Emily was just one of his playthings that he used to while away time. But with his charm he was sure he could get the attention of

“Bitch, I’ll fucking kill you!” Mr. Chansey screamed as he touched his scalded face. He was so furious hestarted pouncing on Sonya.Her quick reflexes allowed her to deliver a swift but deadly kick to Mr. Chansey’s crotch.“Argh!” he cried out in pain immediately and started rolling on the floor with his hands over his bruised member, his face turning a darker shade of purple by the second.“You disgust me!” she spat before turning around to leave the room.This caused her to bump into Ryan, who had been eavesdropping by the door the whole time. “What are you doing here?” she asked angrily.“Nothing, I was just making sure you were doing okay in there,” he replied while shrugging his shoulders.His eyes instantly perked up at the sight of Mr. Chansey, who was writhing in pain on the floor.It was a good thing that she’d managed to mess him up, because if he’d stepped in, he’d surely make sure that Mr. Chansey won’t be using his hands ever again for the remainder of his life.“We’re d

Tomorrow, he resolved, he would continue his search. The importance of the Sesame Tao oil was too great, and he was not one to give up easily. With a renewed sense of purpose, Ryan prepared to face the challenges of the new day, determined to find the missing ingredient and complete the ointment that held so much promise. As Ryan approached the door, the unexpected knock breaking the silence of his concentration, he found Mrs. Sonya standing there when he opened it. The light from the hallway spilled into the room, momentarily illuminating the contrast between his current state of fatigue and her look of concern. No," he admitted with a slight, sheepish smile. "The search for the last ingredient took up more time than I anticipated."As they stepped outside the hospital, two black Rolls Royce cars were parked outside with a few men in black suits.Mrs Sonya turned to Ryan. "Where do you stay Ryan?"Ryan realized he hadn't thought about where he would stay ever since leaving his matr

As Ryan's gaze shifted back to Mrs. Sonya, he noticed a change in her demeanor that he hadn't picked up on earlier. Her usually composed and eloquent presence seemed slightly off-kilter, her smile more relaxed and her eyes a bit unfocused. Concern flickered through him as he took a closer look at the table, realizing for the first time the number of empty glasses that lay before her. It became evident that, amidst their conversation and his own deep contemplation, Mrs. Sonya had consumed a significant amount of wine, more than he had noticed."Mrs. Sonya, I think maybe we should call it a night," Ryan suggested gently, his voice laced with concern. "It's been a long day, and you've had quite a bit to drink. I can help you get back to your room."His offer was met with a light-hearted protest. Carefully, he assisted Mrs. Sonya to her feet, ensuring she was steady before they began to make their way out of the top-floor lounge. Ryan gently took the glass cup from Mrs. Sonya's hand, he

“Sorry, I didn’t mean to.” Ryan instantly came to his senses and rushed to push Sonya away. His face was etched with awkwardness. Everything happened so quickly that he hadn’t had time to think.“It’s okay. It was my fault. The drug might have been too strong, as I really couldn’t control myself,” Sonya replied coyly. While speaking, she cast a glare at Annie, silently cursing her sister for ruining the rare opportunity for her to get a man.“Annie could’ve just left. Why did she have to scream? I’m cutting her allowance this month!” thought Sonya.“Annie, help your sister to lie on the bed,” instructed Ryan.“Hmph! Of course, I will. Did you think you could take advantage of her again?” With a roll of her eyes, Annie went to hold the grumpy Sonya and walked her to the bed.“Ms. Sonya, please remove your shirt and lie on your front,” Ryan added.“What? You pervert, what are you trying to do!” Annie’s anger immediately flared.“Don’t get me wrong. I have to use a needling method to ext

The walk to the ward was tense, each step heavy with anticipation and the burden of the unknown. Upon entering the ward, the nurse left them alone, closing the door softly behind her.Ryan approached the little girl's bedside with a reverence, as if stepping into a sacred space. Mrs. Sonya watched him, her heart caught between hope and fear. The little girl lay pale and still. Ryan stood over her, his gaze intense as he observed her condition. Then, almost reverently, he fumbled with his ring. His fingers delicately manipulated the ring, activating it with a concentration that seemed to draw upon his very will.Closing his eyes, Ryan focused on the little girl.
