"Aurora," Charles called softly, unable to decide where to start from. It was his fault anyways. If he had been able to explain everything to her initially, it wouldn't have resulted in her making such a decision.

"Or are you disappointed to see me now? You obviously didn't think there would be a chance for us to see each other in such a big city," Aurora expressed in a voice that showed how angry she was.

"Aurora, I can explain," Charles said eventually.

"Ok, let's see what you are going to say then. Maybe I would be able to believe it because I'm currently finding it difficult to."

"See, Aurora. Calm down. It wasn't my intention to convey such information. In fact, I wanted to see you before you leave. I didn't even know you planned to do so very soon. But all the same, I'm sorry. Though, I still plan on explaining everything. Can we just see later? Maybe dinner or cinema?"

Aurora regarded him for a moment before she slowly released a sigh. "Alright. Dinner is fine."

Charles said a

    Actually, Aurora was happy that she saw Charles again. Even though, there was a feeling of pain that she was having, even at that moment.She was worried. Truly, she felt a spark. Something told her that Charles could have something for her but maybe it wasn't deep.Or maybe he changed his mind because she had been used by Maximo already.But she was overjoyed when she saw him walk inside the restaurant. She stared at him for a moment, while contemplating on moving closer to him or not. She watched her talk to the waiter before she made the decision to eventually approach him.And dinner was what she had always wanted. Maybe, just maybe Charles would change his mind.

    Charles pulled back slowly and wiped off the tears on Aurora's face. "It's going to be alright," he assured with a smile. Aurora nodded once. "Thank you." Charles nodded once. "Can we hurry up and finish up? There's actually a business I need to attend to. But I will make it up to you later," he promised. Aurora nodded once. "Alright, should we go now?" Charles shook his head briefly. "Let's have a few minutes of dinner. I'm still taking you sightseeing, remember? We can go anywhere you want." Aurora smiled. "Alright, I won't forget." Within a few minutes, Charles and Aurora stepped out after Charles has settled the bill. Charles made a joke and Aurora found herself laughing so hard, forgetting there was any problem in the world. "Can I drop you off?" Charles asked suddenly. Aurora released a sigh. "We were actually not able to sit very well for tonight. So, I would like us to take a walk instead. That is if you don't mind because you would have to leave your car here." Charl

    The blood drained off Charles' face at the realisation. The first thing that came to his mind was tracking the phone before they discovered there was a tracking device on it.Charles had to pick a race back to the restaurant. When he finally got to the car, he checked the location and realised that the phone was on another street.What was so surprising was the fact that it wasn't going towards Giovanni's house.And Charles had to wonder what was really wrong. Or could the kidnappers have been Alex? Maybe he already caught him and thought of a way to make him pay.But Charles planned to treat his fuck up if truly that was what happened. He wouldn't let any of them go scot-free if they harm even a hair on Aurora.He pressed on the accelerator, driving as fast as he could.Fuck! The next day was the announcement day already.

    "What did you say just happened? I don't understand," Giovanni muttered.He wasn't at home the day before and only got home a few hours ago.Alex felt the matter was more important than for him to discuss with him on the phone. So, he waited for him. And he hasn't heard anything from his men, which means that they haven't found the man that looked like Grey. And he was bothered. So, he had to inform Giovanni In case there was something he could do about it. The announcement day was fast approaching already and there was no way they could cancel it. It wasn't even possible as Giovanni wasn't part of the special members."Yes, that's what I was told. And when I got to the airport, I saw him. He had a mask on. A mask that Grey used," Alex explained.Giovanni regarded Alex for a moment. "Are you saying there's a possibility that Grey is alive?"Alex shivered at this. "This is definitely not possible. I mean you really confirmed the bomb. In fact, his car exploded and two corpses were fo

    Richard turned to grab his injection. "Please, have mercy on me. Please, don't test anything on me," a man that was trapped at the lab table pleaded as Richard injected him.He regarded the man for a moment. He smiled softly. "Looks like I'm on it."The man suddenly started shuddering and gasping for air.Richard sighed, disappointed. "A failure again. Get me another test object," he muttered."Boss, a male or female?" One of the men asked, with confusion."I don't care! Just get me one test object!" He yelled and the man rushed out.Richard was fuming with rage at the failure of his test again. He wondered when he was eventually going to succeed. He has prolonged things too much that got Giovanni angry at him.But he thought the recipe was going to make things easy for him.

Richard stepped back, alarmed.

    Aurora hugged Charles so tight. She was so happy that he came for her. Well, she knew that he would.Charles pulled back after a while and looked at her. "Are you ok? I hope they didn't touch you?"Aurora smiled and nodded quickly. She looked back briefly, at the new friends she just made.The men with Charles were going into the rooms and releasing all the people in them.Tiana and her friend walked out to Aurora. "See? I told you that someone was going to come up for me," Aurora jubilated.Tiana nodded once and looked at the other girl. "You can leave now, you are saved," she assured with a smile."What about you?"Tiana shrugged briefly. "I don't know. Maybe I'm going to stay and wait for one of them to come back for me."Aurora was alarmed. "What do you mean? Why can't you come with us? Where are your families? Your parents? Or siblings?"Tiana shook her head briefly. "I have none. Besides, the doctor has already tried two of his drugs on me. Would I really be the same if I leave

    Giovanni, Alex, and his men got to Richard's house.He saw the corpses laying around and he went red with anger. "Who the fuck did this?" He yelled."I will check around for anyone," one of the men told Giovanni and hurried inside with some of the men."Where's Richard? Find him!" Giovanni muttered.Several men rushed inside again.Giovanni entered the main lab room. His gaze searched around quickly before he rushed toward the table where several syringes were.He searched for the tablet but didn't see it. His mind made a sudden thud at the fact staring right at him. Could the attacker have taken both Richard and the tablet?"What are you looking for, father?""The recipe. I mean no one would go for the recipe unless they know its usefulness. Asides, who would do something like that?""And are you sure it wasn't Richard? He could be trying to play smart with you. You did tell me he had been struggling with the steps. What if he had figured it out and had to stage this because he didn'

    Avery knew that she had to do something and it had to be very fast. Alex wasn't supposed to see Grey at that moment.She looked at Grey. "Can we leave now?"Though, she knew that wasn't going to be easy. Leaving would mean Alex seeing Grey and that was what she wanted to avoid.Grey raised confused brows. "But we just got here. Why do you want us to leave? I've already ordered something for us to drink and chew on. Is there something else wrong?" He was skeptical.Avery bent suddenly, "I think I'm having pains in my tummy," she lied and feigned pain. "I think we need to leave this instance," she looked ahead of him, at Alex who was currently speaking to an unknown man in the club.Grey saw this and followed the path of her gaze. He was quick to look away just as Alex looked over to their side.Grey's heart made a sudden thud at this. What the fuck was Alex doing in his club?

    Avery woke up with a scream. Her head was still banging but she wasn't in the airport anymore.She held onto her temple for a moment.The door opened suddenly and Emily walked inside.“Avery!” She called, with worries written all over her face. “What happened? Are you alright?”Her eyes were shut tightly. “Headache,” she whispered.Emily rushed out of the room suddenly. She rushed inside almost immediately but was accompanied by some doctors.Avery felt a stab of the syringe and suddenly, the pain started to ebb away.“Avery! Are you alright?”Avery opened her eyes and looked at her mother. “Mom, where is Grey?”Emily hesitated briefly. “What about the headache?” She asked instead.Avery looked at the doctor, ignoring her mother's question. “Grey was brought in here, right? The VP of Protos Pubblicita. Where is he? How is he?”One of the doctors regarded her for a moment, then looked at Emily. “Are they_”“He's my husband!” Avery said quickly. “If he's here, I demand to know how he's

    “Grey!” Avery yelled again, in despair and pain.The phone dropped from her hand but she barely noticed.She couldn't believe what she had seen. She was actually thinking of surprising Grey by coming to the airport.But since Grey didn't want to see her, she was going to leave. Just seeing him from afar was enough for her.Avery raced closer. Her heart was pounding madly in her chest. “Grey!” She yelled again and felt the tears slide down her cheeks.Then she saw some images flash across her eyes. She saw herself standing beside a car with Grey.A serious headache hit in and he held onto her head a bit to stop the pain.But it worsened.Avery couldn't move as several images flashed across her eyes. The pain in her head got worse.She yelled, much in sadness than in pain. Grey was slipping off her hands and instead of helping, she could not.But it felt like she was starting to remember everything. She was starting to remember everything about Grey.“You ruined my life!” Avery saw her

    Avery didn't believe it, couldn't have imagined it. Grey was a nice person. How could he have treated him badly?She felt a purge of sadness. She closed her eyes for a moment and shed unseen tears.“Sean, I need to meet you alone,” she muttered and walked away.Emily and Benjamin stared at her for a moment, confused.Emily turned to look at Sean. “And what are you doing here?” She yelled at him, anger vivid on her face.Sean looked down in guilt. “I'm so sorry. I really am. That's why I'm here. Please,” he beseeched softly and looked up at her again. “That's why I'm here. I really need everyone's forgiveness. I really hope you can forgive me. I've learned my lesson,” he rushed out with a solemn expression.“You_” Emily started but Benjamin cut in quickly.“It's ok,” Ben muttered. “You should go and see Avery. When you guys are done talking, you should see me before you leave.”Sean bowed slightly, with a slight smile on his face. He hurried towards the direction that Avery had gone.He

    Avery couldn't stop thinking about all Grey had told her. She still found it hard to believe. How was she married and they weren't intimate?Does it mean she forced him to marry her? But then she wondered why she would do such a thing.She took her phone and placed a call to Sean.He picked it up immediately. “Hi, sister.”“I'm on the way home. So, come over. I won’t wait too much for you,” she finished and hung up immediately.The car pulled into the garage and Avery got down before the engine of the car would even stop.She walked inside the living room.“Ben, have you_” Emily started but stopped suddenly when she saw Avery. Her eyes widened with shock. “Avery!” Joy exploded in her eyes.Avery managed a smile and met her mother midway. They hugged.“Where have you been all these while? Why did you decide to stay away from us all this while?” She sobbed quietly.“I'm sorry,” Avery responded and pulled back to look at her mother fully. “I just need to get myself back. Besides, there a

    Avery stood in front of the mirror, with two dresses. She was indecisive about the one to wear. She just freshened up and the only thing she could think of was to go back to the hospital because of Grey.She just wanted to be with him. She didn't want to think of anything else.She eventually decided on the black one, deciding it was a bad idea to be overly dressed when she was in fact going to the hospital.She dabbed some perfumes on herself and eventually walked out of the house. She got inside the car and drove right to a restaurant nearby.She thought of getting Hercules some cakes. Her phone rang suddenly as she walked back to the car. She hesitated briefly, as she took a while to find her. The phone had stopped ringing when she finally found it.She was about to check the caller ID when the phone started ringing again. It was an unknown caller.She hesitated again and contemplated on whether to pick it up or not.She eventually decided to.“Hello?”“Hello, sis!” A familiar de

    Charles looked at Grey, still shocked. “Don't tell me you will team up with this good-for-nothing guy? You know he's not to be trusted!”Grey nodded once and looked at him. “I know but you do trust me, right? Just trust me.”Charles regarded him for a moment and slowly released a sigh. “Alright then.”Grey looked at Dylan. “But this teamwork will not work if we don't have the evidence we can pin Giovanni down with,” he explained.“Well, Giovanni is supposed to die, and not be jailed for killing your father.”“Well, I won't need the evidence after Giovanni dies. So, this deal will be useless for me. Besides, Giovanni will not live after killing my father. Don't think I plan on sparing his life.”Dylan laughed. “I like that! I sincerely do!” He muttered, dipped his hand into his pocket, and pulled out a phone. “It's here, everything on the watch,” he revealed, placed it on the bed beside Grey, and smiled slightly. “I will be in Jacksonville soon. We will talk then,” he finished, got up,

    “Well, let him come,” Grey decided and looked at Avery. “I'm done with the food. Thank you, I really appreciate it,” he said with a smile.Avery nodded once and packed the lunch boxes. “I will leave then so that you and Dylan can speak.”Grey nodded. “Alright. Take care of yourself.”Avery smiled slightly and walked out eventually.Charles turned to Grey. “I will kill him today if he tries to act sneaky!” He swore.Grey smiled slightly. “Just calm down and let's hear him first.”Charles groaned inwardly and pulled a chair for himself to sit. “I'm seriously going to kill him!” He promised.Grey laughed and his phone made a beep. It was a message from Avery. He read through and looked at Charles.“Dylan is here,” he announced.Charles nodded several times as if it was taking every ounce of his strength to keep calm.A soft knock sounded on the door. The door opened almost immediately and Dylan pushed his head inside, a wide smile on his face.“Hi everyone!” He said with sarcasm.“You be

    “Are you sure?” Grey nodded once, with a soft smile. “Yes, I am. I will handle him. So, you just stay calm,” he responded and dialed Charles's number.Avery nodded once. “I will call him back then.”Grey nodded again. “But tell him I would like to choose the venue. If he's not agreeing with that, then I won't see him,” he muttered and looked at the phone screen only to discover Charles had picked it up.“Hi Charles,” he said into the receiver and relaxed back on the bed.“Grey, where have you been?”“Well,” he smiled softly. He would have never thought he was going to get so sick. He hadn't gotten so sick in a long time that it felt like he was immortal, immune.“I got sick Charles. In fact, I'm currently at the hospital.”“Damn! Send me the address. I will be there now,” he assured and the line went off.Grey looked at Avery and caught her staring. He smiled. “What did the doctor say is wrong with me?”“Well, I will tell you that while you eat. You haven't eaten since morning.”Grey

    Consciousness returned to Grey slowly and his gaze searched around.Where was he?A slight headache hit in. He groaned and reached for his head.“Are you alright?” A soft voice asked suddenly.He looked up at a pair of brown eyes. Wait, a nurse?“Yes, just a slight headache,” he responded.The nurse smiled down at him. “You will be fine with this,” she assured and raised a syringe. She regarded him for another moment before she injected him.Grey didn't flinch. It was as if nothing penetrated him. Well, a lot had penetrated him before. What more could a syringe do?“Wow, I'm impressed,” the nurse smiled.Grey didn't really remember anything. In fact, the headache was making it difficult for him. But then, the pain ebbed away slowly as the nurse had said.“Where am I?” He said and groaned inwardly. “I know this is a hospital. I'm sorry for that stupid question.”The nurse laughed.He did as well. “I mean how did I get here?”“Well, your girlfriend brought us here. She stepped out a few
