Chapter 41: STABBED

The door burst open that instant, and Vincent walked in. The figure, spotting him, immediately reached for Cassidy's neck and dragged her toward him."Don't make a step, or I will slit her throat!" he yelled, and Vincent froze in his tracks. My calm eyes turned panicked in that moment. I immediately slipped away from the crowd. The spotlight that had been hovering over me didn't follow this time.They were on the third floor. If I could reach them fast, I could save Cassidy and catch the asshole by surprise.I arrived at the elevator and froze once I saw the sign: "Under Maintenance!" Shit! I cursed in my mind, hiked up the dress I was wearing, and ran for the stairs.Just a few flights! That's all I can run through, I thought, sprinting upward instantly. I could still hear the loud, threatening words echoing around the building, and I gritted my teeth."Stay back, I mean it!" The predator's voice rang out. Cold sweat broke out across my forehead. I even kicked off the heels I was wea

Chapter 42: MUM?

Lying on the ground, I pressed hard against his wound."I won't die," he said, but I snapped a cold look at him, and he chuckled, causing more blood to pump out."Stop!" I yelled, and his laughter died instantly. The door burst open, and Cassidy walked in, holding a phone to her ear."Did you call them?" I asked. She nodded, just then, two paramedics walked in, gently carrying Vincent out. I trailed after them as they exited."Today was really something else!""At least we got to actually witness it. Aurelia did good.""By the way, where was Aurelia in all of this?"The celebrities muttered as they walked out. I glared at them; people had just been stabbed and injured, yet they didn't seem shocked or moved by it at all. My lips parted to say something, but then I spotted Vincent and shut my mouth. I didn't have time to argue right now.The paramedics placed him into the gurney. "We have to go now, please clear the area!" The cold voice of one paramedic filled the air. I spotted Sloane

Chapter 43: STAY AWAY, VINCENT DOESN'T NEED YOU!

“I really didn’t come here to fight, I just came to meet Vincent and see how he is,” she said pleadingly, but Nina scoffed.“We… he doesn’t need you. Please leave before he wakes up and sees you!” she said, then stared at the ground. I could feel she didn’t want to yell at her, nor did she want to show her emotions.From what I know, Vincent’s family situation was messy. Nina was not Vincent’s sister by blood… she was taken in by Vincent’s mother after her nanny died. And Vincent himself had a complicated relationship with his mother. They weren’t in contact, and the internet had different rumors and speculations. No one knew which one was true. I was never indulged in gossip. I was all about business, nothing more or less actually. Right now, I just wanted to know what she did wrong.“I didn’t mean for all that to happen!” Agatha said, and Nina scoffed. She lifted her gaze and this time her eyes were clearly red, filled with anger.“Did I ask for an explanation?” I yelled, and she su

CHAPTER 44: SHUT IT OR I THROW YOU OUT!

I followed Nina back into the ward even though she told me to leave. Agatha came in too, her steps slow like she was scared of breaking something. The room felt smaller with all of us inside. Vincent still lay there, eyes closed, machines beeping softly. My heart was heavy, I just wanted them to talk without tearing each other apart.Nina stood by the bed, arms crossed tight. “Why did you even come? After all these years?”Agatha wiped her face again. Her voice was quiet. “I heard he got hurt. I couldn’t stay away. Nina, please… I never stopped thinking about you both.”Nina laughed, but it sounded broken. “Thinking about us? You left us with him. That man. That situation. You knew what he was like.”“I had to go,” Agatha said, stepping closer. “He was hitting me. Every time he drank, every time another woman called. I thought if I stayed, things would destroy all of you.”I couldn’t stay quiet. “She tried, Nina. She said she watched from far—”“Shut up, Mia!” Nina snapped, turning on

Chapter 45: FIRST LOVE...SHE IS BACK!

The club lights flashed red and blue across the crowded floor. Music pounded loud, but Cassian didn’t care about any of it. He sat in the VIP corner owning the place, Celeste on his lap. His hand slid under her short dress, fingers touching her intimately right there in front of everyone. She gasped softly against his neck, but he just pulled her closer.He kissed her hungrily, like he couldn’t get enough. His tongue pushed into her mouth, deep and rough. Celeste held onto his shoulders, her body warm and shakyAnd few people even took out their phones snapping, but Cassian didn’t stop. His fingers moved between her legs, slow then faster, making her bite her lip hard to hold back sounds.“You’re mine tonight,” he growled against her lips, kissing her again before she could answer. His other hand gripped her waist, keeping her pressed tight to him. Celeste’s cheeks burned, but she kissed him back. She loved him, even when he was like this, cold in public, she still loved him.Across t

Chapter 46: THE FAMILY I WANTED

Outside the ward, the air felt warmer and fresher. I inhaled deeply, and a smile escaped my lips. The reporters had also been sent away, so the place carried the cleanest energy in the world.Just then, Agatha walked out with Nina. I had left the ward the second Vincent opened his eyes. I just wanted them to talk things out, but right now, from their facial expressions, it didn't seem like it had ended well."How's Vincent?" I asked.Nina's lips parted. "Annoyed," she replied. She reached into her bag and dragged out a file, placing it straight into my hands."It's what he likes and dislikes," she said, and I raised a brow."Why are you giving me all this?" I asked, going through each page."He doesn't want to see Agatha!" she said straight up, I lifted my gaze. "And you?" I asked, but she rolled her eyes."That's a really stupid question to ask, but either way, I'll reply... I have school!" she answered, giving me that bored, sassy teenage look."Gosh, your face disgusts me. I wonder

Chapter 47: AUSTIN IS SICK!

I pulled away from the hug and stared at Austin, then back at Sloane."You brought food? Vincent can't eat some certain type of food, he's was stabb-""I know, don't worry I asked my doctor what was suitable for him!" she said lazily and a smirk curved to my lips."You are the best!" I said. She rolled her eyes, "Also I cooked it, didn't buy it. You are such a junk food fan!" she replied and walked off, even though she was limping she still had that charisma...Just then I noticed Austin. He was gently parting strands of Cassidy's hair from her face to behind her ears. My smile faltered that instant."Don't let it get into your eyes, you should cut it off!" he said softly and Cassidy rolled her eyes. "I'm never cutting my hair," she said straight up and he sighed."It's all better now," she snapped cutely and his smile widened. I couldn't help but stare... was it just me or was I seeing a childhood romance between Cassidy and Austin happening? But how old was he? I remember, I thought

Chapter 48: WHO BULLIED YOU?

THIRD PERSON'S POV"Let's go out for some fresh air," Cassidy said and dragged Austin that second. He groaned but followed anyways.Outside, Cassidy had dragged Austin to the other room. It was connected to Vincent’s ward, just a place for hangout for VIP patients.She sat down in the chair and gestured for Austin, he walked over and sat down."You haven't been eating lately. If this keeps going on, I will have to inform your mum," she snapped and his calm look turned into panic."Don't. I'm really okay, I just don't have a huge appetite. You know I hardly eat, I have always been like this!" he said fast and caught his breath, panting heavily. Cassidy’s dark eyes seemed to ease down a bit and she turned to the iPad."Do you want to watch a movie?" she asked and he froze for a second. He analyzed her face and looked away."I'm not a fan," he said softly and Cassidy rolled her eyes. She sucked in her breath, trying to calm down the anger she actually felt."You always do this. You aren'

Chapter 49: WINNING OR LOSING?

"Who bullied you?"Sloane knew her son. Austin was never the type to say those kinds of words unless someone had provoked him. Plus, she knew her son would never use disgusting words or bully a child.Austin wanted to brush it off, but Cassidy stepped forward."He's been bullied in school, but keeps it a secret—""Cassidy stop," he snapped, but she didn't and stared at Sloane."The bully called him a fatherless kid, that's why I replied on his behalf. She deleted her son's messages and is making it seem like the victim here," she said, then stopped, catching her breath.I was standing beside Vincent, and hearing every word, I felt my blood boil. A kid who's sick and just recovered has been bullied in school and hides it not to worry his mum, and now a stupid supportive mother just blamed him online? Worse, everyone seems to be supporting the false claim and even hurling insults at Sloane for being a bad mother and even tagged her a whore for getting pregnant.Sloane collected the iPad

Chapter 50: HELL? NO IT'S PARADISE!

The woman paused on crying as she heard her husband's words and glared at him."What do you mean? You told me to deal with whoever was calling our son names!" she screamed at the top of her lungs, and Sloane scoffed in disgust."Shut it. If I told you to run into a fire, would you run into it? Don't blame me for your useless actions," he yelled, and she cried harder, then turned to Sloane."Please forgive me. I was wrong and merely manipulated by my husband. I wouldn't dare do this anymore!" she begged, pressing her hands together and rubbing them, but Sloane moved backward. No hint of calmness lingered in her eyes, only irritation."You are begging now? My son had been bullied by your son for years. He had been called fatherless all because adults like you are rotten and gossip behind my back, how the hell will a teenager say all that?" she screamed and pointed at them. "Apologize? What about the terror and horror my son went through? Have you ever thought about that? He never even c
