"Severe allergies?" Victor was stunned to hear what the doctor had to say about Violet."Symptoms such as labored breathing, a flushed or swollen face, and a drastic drop in blood pressure are symptoms of severe allergies. I've checked the lab report and it looks like your friend just ingested the food that triggered her allergy. We found seafood protein in his system and that's most likely the culprit."Victor almost gaped, not expecting it."It's a good thing you got him to the hospital quickly. Severe allergy symptoms can lead to death, and in your friend's case, he could have died from acute asphyxiation or a massive drop in blood pressure that would have stopped his heart.""But is she alright?""She is. Just waiting for her to wake up."The doctor left, Victor silent with an overwhelming sense of guilt.The pasta sauce Violet had eaten earlier must have contained pureed seafood. Violet didn't eat the lobster but she still almost died from something else."I almost killed her...,
Victor carried Violet through the darkened room, only the moonlight illuminating each step he took up the stairs and into a spacious room on the second floor of the mansion.He placed Violet on the king-sized bed, as gently as if she were a fragile item.Violet seemed to be sleeping so well, she didn't wake up at all, but Victor could tell she was still breathing."In the end, I brought you to my home." Victor bowed his head, admitting defeat to himself for not wanting Violet to go anywhere but his place."I used to ignore you because I knew from the start that we stood on different ground; you loved your father so much, whereas I wanted so badly to destroy him. I even allowed the person who got Vonn and Vincent into trouble to go free and help him, because he and I had the same target. I never told anyone about this, because I knew you would hate me."Victor sat down next to Violet."But in the end we were so cold, it was as if we hated each other and when that happened, I didn't eve
Victor woke up with a flushed face in the morning. He saw that Violet was no longer beside him, and she must have left the house already. Violet would have wanted to leave quickly after remembering what happened last night between her and Victor, and Victor would have thought the same if he were Violet. She would have run as far away as she could after being kissed sensually enough by her own brother to be out of her control. "That's a shame," Victor said, rubbing the redness from his face as he remembered what he'd done to Violet. "If Violet was healthy, she would have kicked me hard. But because she was sick, she couldn't resist me—and I jumped at the chance like a shameless jerk. What a pervert." Not enough with just cursing himself, Victor wished he could turn back time. But what was that for? Even if Victor went back to the second he confronted Violet and the atmosphere around them became intense, Victor didn't think he could hold himself back this well and would end up forci
[Denver] After what Axielo Grande said that day, Ethan spent several days trying to figure out a truth he never knew. About who Axielo Grande was, and what his relationship was with Ethan’s father, Miguel. Surprisingly enough, it turns out that Axielo was indeed the son of the woman who was found guilty of embezzlement 13 years ago. Ethan was also quite surprised when he read the news about Elina Stacy’s suicide, even though he had heard about it from Xiel. But the news was quite shocking because Ethan never knew if his father had killed someone indirectly. Ethan didn’t want to trust Xiel, after all he still felt wary of a kid who grew up with bad memories and became a mobster, suddenly being sweet and being a friend of Ethan’s younger sister. He still didn’t like Xiel. But the deeper he dug into the information about Xiel, the more Ethan kept feeling like he needed to trust the man’s words. It all made sense, was interconnected, and it hurt when Ethan finally realized why Xiel ha
It was a thrilling day for Tiffany Anderson. Today was the day of the very first competition of her life. Tiffany still did not expect that she would be in this place, filled with many people watching and some of them expecting a victory for Tiffany. One of them was Axelio Addams. "Mr. Addams, where are you going to sit?" asked Tiffany, waiting for her name to be called to come on stage. She was very nervous. Her art teacher Johan was also busy preparing Tiffany's best performance, while her private tutor, seemed much calmer. "What's wrong? Are you worried about something?" Xiel asked. Tiffany replied with a hint of worry on her face. "I'm so nervous, I'm afraid of making a mistake. You know, I never even thought I would do something like this in my life. I was so nervous that I thought if I saw you during the performance, I would feel that someone was waiting for my victory so I couldn't mess up my piano playing." "Haha...," Xiel laughed, touching the top of Tiffany's head war
Violet had been confined to a hospital bed for over a week, and Victor had never missed a day of visiting her.After the accident, Violet had suffered severe injuries. The impact on her head caused trauma that the doctors couldn’t detect, and some of her bones were broken. They say it’s a surprise that Violet even made it through the critical period. Because with injuries that severe, if she died then it was not impossible.They could say that, then Victor would only be grateful and thankful to the God he had never believed in. Victor after all this time, finally returned to pray to God, whose name he had not echoed for a long time, even fortunately he still remembered the name of his God. But Victor’s prayers are answered this time; Violet makes it through the critical period. However, that doesn’t mean she has met a smooth path.Since she had a traumatized nerve in her head, and the doctors couldn’t detect it until the effects were visible, they gave Violet the best possible intensi
In a quiet family cemetery, a man arrived carrying a bouquet of flowers with slow steps.When he arrived in front of a headstone bearing Johnny’s name, he set the bouquet down and opened a can of beer for him.Victor sat in front of the gravestone, drinking the canned beer he had brought while staring coldly at Johnny’s gravestone in front of him. Although he seemed cold and unsympathetic, but if you look closely, there are strokes of sadness in his cold, downcast eyes.Victor can be heard sighing several times, it’s still unbelievable that Johnny is gone. It had all happened so fast and so chaotically; Victor hadn’t even had time to condole his adoptive father’s death when another mess came along and almost took his lover away from him.“What a mess,” he said, monologuing, “maybe I’ll never live in peace; I was born to live in a world of chaos.”Victor thinks back to the past and memories; times when things weren’t this bad, but she was an unapproachable person.And when Victor wante
“I won’t lose... Verlaine is still a hundred years too young to beat me.” “You talk like a villain in a fantasy movie,” Scarlett said, laughing a little so that it made Victor smile at her. But soon, he was sad again because reality was not as easy as it was in the movie. Scarlett stroked Victor’s face. “I don’t want to lose any of my children, but it looks like I have to give up one. Victor, come back safely ....” Victor was stunned, because he did not expect Scarlett to choose him. “Even if it means I have to kill your biological son...?” Scarlett was silent; she needed time to answer. “Like you said, Verlaine could have gone even crazier than this, and we certainly can’t let him keep messing around, right? That’s why you need to stop him and get back safely, yes! You have Violet waiting for you, and me.” “Then who will be waiting for Verlaine?” “His father,” Scarlett said, talking about Johnny and the tragedy that happened between him and Verlaine was apparently not an easy
