    Lorenzo scooped Raina up from the floor, cradling her limp body in his arms. She was so light like she had lost a lot of weight."Raina, wake up," he said, his voice shaking. "Raina, please."She didn't respond. Her head just rolled slightly against his arm, her face pale as paper."Lay her on the bed!" Michael shouted, already wheeling himself closer, his usual calm completely gone. "Quick, Lorenzo!"Lorenzo rushed her to the bed and laid her down gently. Michael's hands trembled as he pulled out his phone and dialed a number so fast his fingers fumbled twice."Jonathan, get here now," Michael said into the phone, his voice tight. "It's Raina…Something's wrong with her…Hurry."He didn't even wait for a response before ending the call. His chest rose and fell heavily as he stared at his daughter's still body.Jonathan arrived faster than anyone expected. He rushed in with his medical bag, immediately checking Raina's pulse and pressing his fingers gently against her wrist."She's extr

    THREE DAYS LATER….Raina hadn't stepped out of her room for three days and she didn't eat or talk to anyone. She just stayed locked inside with the curtains closed, like she wanted the whole world to disappear.Lorenzo and Michael tried everything they could. They knocked, begged and even left food outside her door, but it stayed there until it got cold and someone came to take it away, untouched.On the evening of the third day, Lorenzo sat across from his father in the dining room, his food untouched too. His mind was only on his sister."Father, I can't keep doing this," Lorenzo said, rubbing his forehead. "If she doesn't come out by tomorrow morning, I am breaking that door down."Michael sighed heavily, his hand tightening around his wheelchair's armrest. "Give her a little more time, son. She just got divorced and is heartbroken.""It's been three days," Lorenzo said, his voice sharp with worry. "She hasn't eaten anything. Do you know what that can do to her body? I am not going

    Bailey's cheek was burning. She could taste blood in her mouth and her head throbbed where her wound had reopened. But the pain in her body was nothing compared to the pain in her heart.She looked at Carlos like she didn't even know him anymore."You are heartless!" she screamed, pointing a shaky finger at him. "You know I love Maxton! You know how long I have loved him! But instead of helping me, you are helping that woman! You are helping Raina, the same woman who stole him from me!"Carlos's jaw tightened. "Bailey, that's enough.""No, it's not enough!" she shouted, tears mixing with the blood on her lips. "You don't care about my feelings at all! You never have!"Carlos's hand rose again, faster this time.SLAP!The third slap landed hard across her face. Bailey stumbled back, her cheek now swollen and red. She held her face, breathing hard, but she still didn't look sorry.

He was still sleeping and was totally oblivious to everything that was happening around him.She looked up and saw her father and Gerald, who were obviously waiting for them.“Princess, you have suffered” Michael held her hand with a look of heartache, as soon as his wheelchair stopped in front of her.“Father, uncle Gerald” Lorenzo greeted them with a nod.Raina didn't say anything, she just stood there with an absent-minded expression.“Let's go in, we will talk after you have all rested” Michael said with a sigh.They all went into the villa and Raina took Angelo to the room opposite hers.

She had been there for almost half an hour now, just mindlessly staring at the opposite wall.She was initially sitting on one of the chairs in the hallway, but she felt awfully uncomfortable and the cold ground felt like a better option to calm her mind. She told herself she was just tired and needed a cold place to sit, but that was a lie. She was waiting….She didn't want to admit it, but every time she heard footsteps coming down the hall, she looked up, hoping it was him coming to find her.Lorenzo walked out of the room and she instantly recognized his familiar footsteps.

He didn't want to tell her, but he knew he had to."Raina," he said, his voice very soft. "I tried and talked to him for a long time, but….
