Slade stood grounded to that spot for a minute. There was a lot going through his mind as he stared at Linda. He would momentarily moved his gaze from her to the object of collision. It was a plastic box of garbage. The box hardly fell away when the car hit it because the impact was nothing serious. In fact, the box was still standing, tilting towards the bonnet of the carAnd there was Linda on the floor, rolling from one side to the other. Slade didn't need a soothsayer to tell him that she was faking it! But why? Why would she intentionally throw the garbage box in the way of the car and then make herself fall to the ground. "Slade!!!" Mamita yelled his name. "What are you doing standing there? Why are you not helping her up?"As Mamita scolded Slade, she walked to Linda and bent towards her. She tried to lift Linda up.When Linda heard Slade's name and lifted her gaze to see him, she felt utterly disappointed. There was no way she could hide the grandiose weight of the disappoi
It would seem as though a festival was about to commence. There were a lot of people gathered at the scene. Who could have thought that so many of these rich folks stay indoors all day?! Or perhaps could there be a public holiday. Slade and Mamita were still in the car as Linda continously cried and yelled. She was acting as though the car had been doing 90 in the freeway when the collison happened. In fact, the scene got quiet interesting when Linda's legs knocked the box to the ground, letting the trash pour on the floor. The lower part of her body was actively wallowing in the trash as she rolled to and fro. Yet she did not stop. "This is preposterous!" One of the rich folks said. "Do they not know that this is an estate? How could they be going on such a speed in a quiet estate?" Another person argued. "Why are they still in the car for fuckssake!" One of the men yelled and moved closer towards the car. A lady suddenly grabbed the arm of the man who was walking towards the
At this point, Slade could not argue. In fact, he was so flabbergasted that he couldn't find his voice. No matter how hard he thought about this, he couldn't help but wonder if this was premeditated by Mariana and her mother. If it was true that this was premeditated, then what do the both of them stand to gain here?Taking a glance at Mariana once again, Slade could see how resolute they were. There was a reason he had driven all the way here. If he had known, he would have stayed back at his Mamita's house and heal her there. He couldn't do that because of that man. He didn't want a third party to know what he was about to do. "Don't just stand there, move." One of the rich folks yelled at Slade. Slade shot a glare at the person who had the guts to yell at him. The man quickly hid his face as soon as he saw how tough and mean Slade's eyes were. Slade turned around after this and headed to the car. He got in and ignited the motion. He started driving.He drove towards Elaine and
Slade didn't mind the voice, he headed straight to the foyer. He couldn't find Lord JK in the foyer. "Is your dad not at home?" Slade asked Candyce. "Who's talking please? I can hear a voice but I can't see anyone." Candyce rolled her eyes, folding her arms. Slade didn't know what to say to her. "Meeting so often makes me feel like the wedding is in the corner." The familiar deep voice of Lord JK came from his side. Slade looked towards the hallway. There was Lord JK in a robe, walking towards him. "I'm really sorry for being a bother to you. I had no other choice. Something urgent came up, and I couldn't think of any other place to go." Slade apologized. "Oh, come on, Divine Doctor." Lord JK chuckled. "If you are this grateful to me, then what should I do after you saved my life? Should I drop on my face and roll to and fro? Or should I Will all my properties to you? I mean, the first one might be hard to do because of ego, but the second is impending already. Just a wedding a
"Who could it be?" Hushed whispers started flying around. The tension and anxiety scaled altitudes as gaze remained glued to the door. What should have happened in the blink of an eye seemed to be taking an eternity to be registered. "Could it really be him?" Those who were divided by differences and infidelity have now found a common ground and were not willing to compromise it. When the door opened, a tall man dressed in black was seen stepping out of the building. He looked to be at least 6ft6. Not only was he tall, but he was broad and hefty. "That cannot be him.""That's definitely one of his guards."The man started to walk towards the gate, outside which the group of people were gathered. As the man advanced towards them, they all tried to move back. None of them wanted to be a victim of violence. Although they were all rich folks, yet that was not enough to save them because they were obviously trespassing the property of the owner of the estate. "You better have a goo
"The door is opening again!!" The same person announced again. The place suddenly became dead quiet. All eyes and attention were spent extravagantly on the direction of the door of the villa. The door slowly opened and the tall and broad man stepped out into the open. "It's that asshole again." Someone said gritting their teeth. "Like you can say it to his face." "You better don't dare me. What's the worse he can do? Beat me---""Oh my God!" Someone exclaimed all of a sudden. "What's it?""Who's that coming?""This can't be real." Someone's eyes widened, so much that they almost popped out of their face. "Is that him?""Who's that man?""That's Lord Jendall Kurtis, you bastard!" Someone snapped. Everyone stared in utmost disbelief as soon as they saw Lord JK walking towards the scene. This was so unbelievable that most of their jaws were drooping, difficult to be held back in place. Mariana gripped the arm of her mother as though she would rip it off. It was hard to tell why
Slade prepared the interface between Mamita's body and the silicone arm. He was about to attach the prosthetic socket to ensure a secure fitting. His eyes were shut as he went through with the process. He didn't need his human eyes to do this. His human eyes were useless in a situation like this. He had already activated an alternative. The Vyion Eye. The entire room was radiating with the energy gushing from his body. The energies had flowed all over the place to the extent that the room now looked as though there was a blanket of fog reaching from one end of the room to the other. If a normal person walked into the room at that moment, they wouldn't even be able to see their own body. But this was the condition that was necessary for the perfect facilitation of the healing process. Slade proceeded with the suction-based attachment of the arm, because he wasn't going with the easy on-and-off functionality. Naturally, when fixing a prosthetic arm, many doctors mostly use the lock
"When the area was opened again, the pain returned. This time, it was multiplied. Why? Because not only was your arm opened again, but there was something else attached to your arm, hanging down the dedicate area.""In a few words, the prosthetic arm exacerbated the pain. But right now, I'll take it away." Slade promised. "Hold on..." Mamita called with urgency. "What do you mean... prosthetic?" She was trying to get the words together. Her eyes slowly moved from his face down to her body. She felt that the area of her missing arm was now very heavy. It felt like a rock was hanging down her limb. She suddenly saw the arm. A new arm hanging down her limb. Her eyes widened and she wanted to sit up at once, but a force held her back. When she looked, it was Slade putting her back into the position of rest. "Stay still." He said warmly. "H--how...?" She stuttered, trying to wrap her head around what was must be happening in that moment. Slade quickly slipped his palm to the back o
