Startled by his sudden outburst, Diana grabbed Alex by his arm, faking a smile.“Hehe... There is no need to argue about this. Fiona was just about to leave,” Diana uttered, intending to calm Alex down.Instead of being calm, her statement fueled Alex’s anger. He realized that Diana was only trying to calm him so that he won't do anything brutal to Fiona, which meant she feared that Fiona would do something drastic in return.Instantly, Alex pulled his hand away from Diana then he pointed his fingers at Fiona, almost poking it into her eyes.“Don’t you dare call her a witch,” Alex uttered, his tone dripping like a threat as it made Fiona frightened a little.But she couldn't let her guard down, so she sneered, “Diana, is your good-for-nothing husband not aware of my status here? Or do you want me to explain it to him myself?”“No, he is not aware! I will explain everything to him!” Diana exclaimed, causing Fiona to sprout to her feet and glare at Alex.“As a responsible doctor, I sho
“Diana! Diana!” Alex snapped his fingers, jolting Diana from what she remembered.“What are you thinking about?” He inquired, causing Diana to fake a chuckle so that he would not get worried about her.“Nothing,” Diana replied, before she wrapped her arm around his elbow affectionately, while the car moved swiftly.“I thought I was going to die after getting shot, but look at me! I'm hale and healthy sitting next to my handsome husband,” she mumbled, snuggling up to Alex as she pecked his cheek. Receiving a peck from her as their surroundings fell silent, Alex inquired, “Are you thinking about those gossips?”“No,” Diana replied quickly, almost too quickly, causing Alex to realize that she was lying.Gently, he took her chin in his hand and muttered, “Whatever those nurses said is false. You are not a bad luck or a witch. Immediately you stepped into the villa, you helped Dad to recover and you changed my personality.”“You loved me even though I pretended to be a poor, miserable imp
“Dead?” Evelyn gasped, “Goodness!”“Yes, the victim is dead. And the only thing left to do is to inform the victim’s family,” the female doctor explained, causing Evelyn to nod in agreement.***Beep!Beep!Stirring from his sleep, Alex’s eyelids opened upon hearing the beeping sound from the heart monitor. He sat upright, recalling how he pushed the male nurses and the way he tried to strangle the female doctor.“How are you feeling?” Rex questioned, pushing his wheelchair toward Alex’s bed.Just then, Alex noticed that Rex was present in the ward.“I feel...” Alex paused, recalling that he didn't see Diana around him. And with that, he sensed that something was amiss because he assumed that Diana would certainly visit him if he was in the hospital.“Where is Diana?” He asked quickly.“I don't think you are prepared to listen to the outcome of the car accident yet, so forget about Diana for now,” Rex uttered tartly, causing Alex to lean toward him.“What outcome? Is Diana not feeling
“Come in!” Alex uttered loudly, not wanting to be disturbed by a continuous loud knock.Creak!The door opened slightly, revealing Bella who walked into the room majestically. She was dressed in a short, red gown, looking beautiful thanks to the massive makeup that she applied on her face.Engrossed with the work he was doing, Alex didn't even notice when Bella walked in, even though her intoxicating perfume wafted through the air. “Theo, did you get any information?” He questioned, still engrossed with his work. He assumed that it was Theo who walked inside the room, because he instructed Theo to report any information he gets about the recent car accident that made Diana end up in a coma.Meanwhile, Bella’s lips downturned when she heard him say, “Theo.”“So he did not notice me,” Bella muttered to herself, before thinking of a way to make Alex notice her.As soon as an idea struck her mind, she continued to walk gently towards the table before Alex, then, she closed his laptop to
“Responsible woman?” Alex uttered, before chuckling miserably. He shifted a disdainful gaze to Bella, and he responded, “Well... I can't just consider a woman as irresponsible if there are no reasons behind it.”“What reason?” Rex questioned, creasing his brows as he placed the cup gently on the table before averting his gaze to Alex and Bella.“There are lots of reasons... which I'm not prepared to mention, in order to not waste any time,” Alex replied quickly, not intending to waste his working or eating time to discuss about someone he didn't want to see.With that, Bella faced him with her arms crossed, and she pouted, “We resolved this issue already, and you should not consider my past as any of the reasons why you consider me as an irresponsible woman. Remember, you said you will endure before you blindly gave me those divorce papers to sign.”“Yes, I said that I would endure. Also, I mentioned that I would endure for as long as I could.” Alex voiced out, before grabbing Bella
“I am not your maid, you crippled man!!” Bella shouted, her voice ringing out, loud and sharp, which caused Rex to gasp in shock.He had never received such a loud, rude statement from anyone. Even Alex would never yell at him that way, let alone a stranger. “What did you just say?” He questioned quickly.“I said I'm not your maid, so stop instructing me like a maid!”“How dare you speak to me rudely! You also called me a crippled man... tsk tsk tsk, do you know what I'm capable of? No one in their entire miserable life would ever speak to me like that, even if it were Diana, she would help me without grumbling at all!” He fired back, causing Bella to let out an evil chuckle as she bent to equalize their heights.“Diana? Are you seriously bringing that garbage up? Hehe... Oh well, crippled man, just in case you are not aware, your Diana is a vegetable right now, and she is useless. So, forget about her,” Bella replied firmly, sprouting to her feet as she folded her arms across her ch
Bella gulped at his threatening statement. For the first time in her entire years with Alex, Alex threatened someone!It was a new change which Bella disliked a lot. No, his love for Diana was changing him quickly, almost too quickly!She clenched her fist and she exclaimed before Alex could step out of the room.“You love me, Alex! Diana is only a distraction because of that damn one-night you had!” She exclaimed, as she was very certain about what she said, while Alex opened the door.Just then, she exclaimed again, “I wish Diana could just sleep and never wake up! She should die and let you be!”Alex’s ears rang at that statement. How dare she wish for his wife’s death when he had always been praying for her consciousness.He faced Bella with a glare as he became annoyed. Of all insults she could say, it had to be this? Oh well, she pushed him to the wall this time.“How dare you!” Alex growled, approaching Bella with hasty steps before he gripped her neck.“Alex, what are you doi
“Huh?” Rex uttered, his eyes widening in disbelief as he was dumbfounded by the male escort’s statement.He was expecting the escort to help him, not smirk.“You know, you should just die after what you did to my parents,” the male escort hissed with, venom dripping from every word.But fortunately, the pain in Rex’s chest subsided as it allowed Rex to regain his voice. “Do I know you before?” Rex questioned cautiously, intending to not fuel the male escort’s anger.“No, you don't. But maybe after you die, you will remember who I am,” the male escort snickered, before pulling out a dagger.With that, fear struck Rex like lightning and he gasped in shock. Why would someone want to hurt him when he didn’t know what he had done wrong? His heart raced, but before the dagger could hit his stomach, he managed to summon strength, and he grabbed it, before he tried his best to push it away.Though, the male escort’s grip was very tight. He wrestled the dagger from Rex’s hand, then he attemp
