Friday had finally arrived and Hudson was on his way to pick up Annette hoping she was ready to leave for Scotland, he had informed her yesterday and she said she would be prepared to leave by today As Hudson got to her door he knocked on it and Annette opened the door for him, she was with a small bag in her hand as she gave him a polite smile "Good morning" Annette greeted as she walked out of her room and closed the door behind her "Good morning, let me help you with your bag," Hudson said as Annette gave him a strange look "You don't need to act nice, I already agreed to go with you" Annette said, her suspicion evident in her tone "I'm not acting nice, I just want to apologize for the day before, I was an ass and deserve what you do to me but I'm thankful you chose to go with me today" Hudson said and Annette didn't know if she would believe him or not "Just forget it, what should I expect from your family?" Annette asked "They are very nosy and my mother is sick

After their confrontation on the first day of their visit to Scotland, Hudson and Annette avoided each other but maintained their facade in front of his family. Finally, on the day of the birthday party, Annette was busy getting dressed when she heard a knock on her room door. She opened it to find Hudson standing there with a box in his hands."What do you want?" Annette asked."I brought this for you to wear," Hudson said, opening the box to reveal a pair of diamond necklaces and earrings."I'm not interested in your bribe. You can shove that gift up your ass," Annette replied, shutting the door in his face.Annette expected him to cause a scene, but instead, she heard him walk away. After she was satisfied with her appearance, she left her room to join everyone in the reception and spotted Hudson by the buffet table."I see you've decided to grace us with your presence. You left me standing here like a fool," Hudson complained, glaring at Annette."And? I'm here, aren't I?" Annette

He just kept on walking until he reached a bar that was a few blocks away from the hospital. Even though he had changed into the new clothes the hospital had given him from the lost and found box and washed his hands, he could still feel Annette's blood on his body. He could still see her blood covered face as he held her body in his arms causing him to let out a soft sigh. Forgetting the picture of her laying on the floor is going to be harder than he thought — Hudson thought to himself as he stood in front of the bar. "I need to get drunk, at least that would help me forget," Hudson said to himself as he pushed through the swinging doors of the bar, the scent of alcohol and sweat enveloped him. The noise from the bar filled his ears as soon as he entered, the sound of laughter, music, and clinking glasses echoed in the room. He made his way to the bar, weaving through the crowd, his mind already buzzing with different emotions. "Whiskey," he called out to the bartender, his voi

Hudson woke up with a throbbing headache, the memories of the previous day's events flooding his mind like a tidal wave. He slowly sat up, rubbing his temples, as the weight of his actions crushed him. How could he have been so reckless, so thoughtless? Endangering Annette's life, the one person who had never wronged him.Guilt and regret washed over him as he reflected on their past. All the times he'd hurt her, disregarded her feelings, and taken advantage of her. He felt like a monster, unworthy of her forgiveness. The thought of losing her now was unbearable."No, please don't let me lose her," he whispered to himself, his voice laced with desperation.With a self-pitying sigh, Hudson rose from bed and stumbled to the bathroom. A cold shower helped clear his mind, but the anguish lingered. He quickly dressed, his eyes fixed on the clock. Eight a.m. – visiting hours would start soon.The thirty-minute drive to the hospital felt like an eternity. Hudson's anxiety grew with each pass

Monday morning dawned, casting a warm glow over the hospital. Jane arrived, her eyes red from lack of sleep. She had been absent from work, preoccupied with Annette's condition. Tomorrow, she planned to submit her resignation letter through George, eager to escape Hudson's toxic space. But her conversation with Sam over the weekend had brought new hope. He promised to help her find a better job, leveraging his connections. Jane felt empowered, grateful for Sam's kindness. Sam, still in the country, refused to leave until Annette recovered. He had spent the weekend bonding with Annette's loved ones – Cassie, Jane, and George. They mattered to her, and he treated them with warmth and respect. This morning, they gathered around Annette's bed, their faces engraved with concern. Cassie sat beside her sister, dressed in her school uniforms, holding her sister by the hand. "Hey, sis," Cassie whispered, her voice trembling. "I'll be back after school, okay?" George and Jane sat in silence
