Damien read the message again, and it was just as he had seen it. Charlotte health was deteriorating. He drew his brows wondering if she got infected. 'Was it my mistake? Am I really making mistakes and putting people's life in danger?' he wondered."Is there something wrong?" Bianca asked, seeing how worried he looked."I need to leave and I will be back soon so we can have the discussion," she answered and hurried back to his office to get his car key. Bianca let out a deep breath as she watched him leave. She felt bad for him and her heart ached knowing she could not do anything to help him. "This world is evil. They never appreciate help but do everything to bring down people's success," she muttered and turned to leave but stopped when she realized she haven't told him something important. "Darn it!" She cursed and ran after him. Damien got his car key and went out to get his car. Immediately he stepped out of the building, he was immediately surrounded by reporters who bega

Bianca stared at him with widened eyes as his words registered in her head. 'What if I told you I did?' his question repeated in her head. What if he did? She wondered. He stared at her with an emotion she had never seen when he asked the question.Damien stared at her intently, waiting for her reply which he thought she would believe he did, although a deep part of him wanted her not to believe it. He had purposely said it so she would have a second thought and leave. She was the last person he wanted to get involved in his troubles. Bianca suddenly smiled and shook her head. "What are you trying to do? Make me believe you are capable of doing something as reckless as this. I know you too well Damien. You love your job and wouldn't want to risk the life of the person you tried to save," she answered. Damien let out a deep breath and leaned back against the desk behind him. "You shouldn't get involved in this. I am glad you believe me, but many people are against me right now and

Damien stared at her for a few seconds, wondering if he should go on telling more about it. Even though she looked concerned deep down, he could tell she was angry or rather, jealous.She was jealous and that was a big step for him in winning her back. That meant she still had feelings for him but talking about feelings or how anyone felt was wrong to him as he still had very important things to take care of."Like I said, I will come back and let you in on the whole story. For now, I need to leave because this is very important," he said again and she quickly nodded. "Please go on. Sorry for stopping you back. I just got carried away and worried, because I thought it might be a trap," she said and he shook his head in disagreement. "It is not a trap. We are talking about the Whyte family. I will be back in no time," he said and left, with her gaze fixed on him until he went away from her sight. She let out a deep breath and faced Eric. "I need to do something to help. How far have

Eleanor gasped and drew back, completely shattered by what he said. She looked at her sister and a tear flowed down her eyes. "There is something that can be done, right?" She asked and averted her gaze to Damien. "You can treat her right?""Well I-" she cut him off."Then don't waste time and start her treatment." She rushed to him, covering up the distance between them. "Please, treat my sister, Damien. I know you can do it and that's why I am putting my trust in you. Please, do something.""Don't worry Eleanor. There is something that can be done. I had a patient with this same illness and trust me, she is fine now," he assured and she immediately felt relief seeped into her."Thank goodness," she muttered and breathed deeply. "What do you need? I will get it for you immediately.""Everything I need for the treatment is at the hospital. But right now, the situation there is not good. If anyone sees Charlotte being taken there, it would add up to the issue, and accusing fingers wou

Damien went with the old man to his room and when they got there, he shut the door and turned to face him."Dr Damien, we haven't seen each other for a while," Mr Whyte said and sat down on the single couch. "Yes sir. I have been occupied with work, but I planned on visiting," he answered politely but the old man waved his hand, dismissing his excuse. "You don't have to explain. I didn't say it so you would feel bad or start telling me what has been happening in your life," he said and eased back on the chair. "Have a seat and let's talk properly."Damien nodded and sat down on the couch beside him. "I see you are going through a lot of trouble and my granddaughter in there also caused you trouble. Even now, she is a troublemaker by making you come here to treat her when you have a lot of work to do," he said and clicked his tongue. "I spoilt these girls.""I am only doing my job sir. I don't see this as a burden."The old man nodded, impressed that the young man was still diligent

Damien pulled over in front of the hospital and his car was immediately surrounded by the reporters who waited for him. The security officers, who were tripled, hurried forward and cleared the way, allowing Damien to pass. He came out of the car and hurried in."Doctor, thank goodness you are here. A patient who fell off a cliff was brought in," A doctor reported, walking beside him. "Her condition is critical right now. She went into cardiac arrest while in the ambulance and five minutes later when she was brought in.""Has a scan been done? Does she have broken bones?" He asked, entering the ER."Yes sir. The orthopedist has been informed and he will be here now. She has internal bleeding and her organs were affected." He stopped and let out a deep breath. "I don't think she will survive this."Dr Damien faced him with a frown and scolded, "Aren't you a doctor? Should you be saying something like this when she is still alive? As a doctor, you will try all you can to rescue her. You

Damien and Eric hurried into the office and met the doctor in charge of Ethan's autopsy. "Please come with me." She led them to her team. "What did you find, Dr Fiona?" Damien asked with anxiousness while scanning around to examine what they were doing. "Well sir, we finally detected the wrong medication administered to him. Whoever did this, did it to kill him," she said and picked up the result and handed it to him. Damien glanced through it and when he saw what was administered to him, his eyes went wide. "Potassium Chloride," he muttered. "Yes. His heart stopped.""This is a big proof for you, sir. We had no potassium chloride in this hospital. Someone did this," Eric said, relieved that they finally found something important.Damien fisted his hand, "How did this happen in this hospital? We weren't careful enough. A murderer came in and did this without our knowledge." He grounded his teeth. "I won't let this off until this person is caught."He faced Eric who shivered at the

Bianca let out a deep breath and crossed her arms beneath her bosoms. "There is no need to know. You will find out what this lead is after the person behind the patient's death is exposed and Damien's reputation is saved. For you, you can only wait patiently for that big news," she answered and walked out of the room."Damn it! This can't be. They can't find anything. I made sure to clean up every trace that would lead to me," she muttered and took her fingers in between her teeth, chewing on them. She thought of what she left behind but couldn't come up with anything. That night after she injected the young patient, she quickly left the ward and pulled off the nurse uniform. She took it back to the nurse's changing room and neatly placed it where she had seen it. She threw the infection into the trash bin, and she did that so Damien would be blamed. He was the last person to put a pack of medicine into the bin. For the CCTV footage, she had a friend who was a hacker, delete the f

Andrew’s FuryAndrew sat in his dimly lit office, his fingers curled tightly around his whiskey glass. The amber liquid sloshed slightly as his grip hardened, his frustration boiling over. The room smelled of expensive wood and aged liquor, but none of it mattered.His plan had failed.The FBI had stormed into Damian’s house, expecting to uncover the evidence he had carefully planted.Instead, they had found nothing.Not even a trace of the illegal drug.The headlines were everywhere now, twisting the narrative in Damian’s favor.Andrew’s jaw clenched as he read the latest updates on his laptop screen."FBI Raid Yields No Evidence – Was Damian Framed?""Public Outcry Grows – Supporters Rally Behind Dr. Damian!""Damian’s License Suspension in Question – Possible Case Dismissal?"Andrew exhaled sharply through his nose. His heartbeat pounded in his ears, each pulse feeding the white-hot anger threatening to consume him.This wasn't supposed to happen.Damian should have been sitting in

The morning started with trouble Damian barely had time to process what was happening before his front door was kicked open. The sound of heavy boots echoed through his house as men in dark uniforms stormed in, their weapons drawn.“FBI! Hands where we can see them!”He stood frozen in the living room, his heart slamming against his ribs. Several agents were already spreading out, moving with precision as they began searching his house.“What the hell is going on?” Damian demanded, his voice steady despite the turmoil inside him.One of the agents, a tall man with sharp eyes, stepped forward, holding up a warrant. “We have a legal search warrant for your residence, Dr. Carter. We received credible information that an illegal drug was stored in your home.”Damian’s breath caught in his throat. A drug? His mind raced. This had to be a mistake.“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he said, his voice calm but firm.The agent’s gaze remained cold. “Then you won’t mind if we search.”

Andrew stood at the edge of his cellar, he pleaded with Eleanor to leave him to his thoughts, his wine cup slightly placed in between his hands as he absentmindedly tilted it from left to right. The deep red liquid swirled, reflecting the flickering candlelight, but his thoughts were elsewhere. He couldn’t shake the feeling of disbelief over what Eleanor had done. It felt surreal; if she hadn’t shown when she did things might have gotten worse than this but yet he still couldn't wrap his finger while she would do such a rare opportunity for Bruno.Bruno had been quick on his feet, faster than Andrew ever expected. But now, Andrew was acting on instinct, his heart racing in an unfamiliar way. The late hour pressed down on him, echoing the weight of his thoughts. Just then, his phone buzzed, breaking the silence. It was his mother, her voice cutting through his reverie. He was expecting this, he felt a little bit relieved that it wasn't his dad. His sudden arrest had gone viral.“Andrew

Bruno sat in his office, the dim light creating shadows that reflected his inner turmoil. As a detective, he was determined to capture Regina, driven by his anger towards Andrew. The thought of Andrew being free weighed heavily on him.In the interrogation room, Regina acted irrationally, blinded by her hatred for Damian. "Even if you tried to torture me, it would be a waste of time," she shot back defiantly. Bruno thought about Bianca—she would never approve of such methods.A smirk crossed his face as a plan formed in his mind. He quickly texted Damian about his next move.Soon after, Bruno and his team arrived at SAO County Hospital. The atmosphere buzzed with whispers as people speculated about why they were there.Bruno locked eyes with Andrew La Pete across the lobby. The gaze was filled with tension. Andrew smirked, saying, "What have I done to deserve this honor, Mr. Bruno?" He let the name hang in the air."You’re under arrest for being an accomplice in hiding the escapee," B

He found himself closing the gap between them, a distance filled with a tension that wanted to be broken and crossed by Damian. He wasn't a man of women and he had never desired anyone had he desired his wife. He hated how things had drifted them apart. He wanted to get through things so fast and have a lot of time with his wife.His mind is surrounded by fleeting memories, his hand doing the wonder.Bianca had woken up ever since she was in the car but she pretended to remain and not be discovered.She felt tired of meeting him to his face, not after the whole scenario she had created. She couldn't believe she had cried too much and now that she found an intense gaze burrowing through her, she was left with no choice but to open her eyes but only to meet with an intense sight, a lust carved in for so long looming around Damian who had his gaze on her belly.She had wanted him since the time she opened her eyes in the hospital. He was looking disheveled but he looked so alluring and b

Andrew had rushed in immediately and the moment she saw Bianca in tears, he rushed to her engulfing her in a big hug.Damian had been trying Bianca's number immediately when he got home and realized it wasn't going through only for it to be dropping, he called Bruno but he wasn't picking up.He had known something was going on, he had been expecting Bruno's message regarding their last discussion in luring Regina. He was forced to concentrate on the outcome of his hearing, the fact that Bianca hadn't been back was lingering in his heart creating different images of Bianca in danger.After he couldn't take it any longer he rushed to her office only to be told by her assistant that she had left some minutes ago.Damina felt a knot in his stomach tighten as he ran, the weight of his fear becoming almost tangible. He knew he had to find her before that fear consumed him completely. She was not just someone he cared about; she was his anchor, and without her, he felt lost in a sea of uncer

Bianca had left her office early, she wanted to meet with Eleanor at first but the meeting had been cancelled by her. She thought she could do something to help Bruno out, she wanted to know about Andrew but if she had to, she had to keep things low with them and increase her fake facade.She had gone out on a date with Andrew who felt he had the world wrapped under his fingers.Bianca sat quietly at the nearby cafe where she had met with Regina the other day. She had heard about the hearing and how it had gone and the only thing she felt she could do was make a great decision that could dissolve things and she had decided to meet with Regina, everything was all her plan. She wanted to play the same game she had played on her and she was going to do everything to make her pay.She had called Mike and he wasn't in the country and she understood Damina and just took his time to explain how things went.She checked for the time, The minutes stretched into what felt like hours, each tick

Damian sat in the dimly lit hospital room, the rhythmic beeping of machines creating a soothing backdrop to the whirlwind of emotions swirling within him. Bianca lay in the bed, her face framed by tousled hair, eyes fluttering open as if awakening from a long, deep sleep. The moment their gazes met, a spark ignited between them, a connection that transcended the confines of the sterile room.“Damian?” she said, her voice a whisper, filled with disbelief. “Is it you?”He nodded, his heart racing as he leaned closer, absorbing every detail of her expression. It was as if time had folded in on itself, and the world outside had faded away. “Yes, it’s me. You’re safe now,” he replied, his voice steady but thick with emotion.As the reality of her surroundings settled in, Bianca’s brow furrowed in confusion. “I… I remember things, but they’re all jumbled. The last clear memory I have is—Regina!” Her voice wavered, and a tremor of disappointment coursed through her. “She knocked me out of co

Damian could barely keep up; everything was happening so fast. The noise and chaos of the hospital swirled around him, but his focus remained on Bianca. She lay unconscious, her breathing steady but shallow, and he couldn’t help but feel unsure about whether he should continue with the investigation or not. Bruno had just reported to him that apart from the wrecked car, no other evidence had been found. Regina's body was still missing. “Could she have escaped the scene? Could she have drowned?” Different questions raced through his mind, each one more troubling than the last. The uncertainty gnawed at him. He returned his gaze to Bianca, whose heartbeat had stabilized. Her color was gradually returning to normal, a sight that brought a sigh of relief from deep within him. But even as he felt a flicker of hope, the jolt of his phone interrupted his thoughts. It was Bruno again. He hesitated to pick it up, but he knew he had to—he had been involved in this case from the beginning. “A
