Chapter 14---------------“I’m Dr. Charles Osborn, we need to talk in my office, please,” a doctor insisted, he walked just as he spoke. He rapped and walked faster. This doctor seemed to have no time to waste. He led the way right away and we followed his steps, moving fast till we banged into his office, maintaining the same pace.“This should be confidential, can you excuse us, gentlemen?” he asked Antonio, who had already pulled a seat. He made no attempt to leave, he was just doing his job and was waiting for command. He wouldn’t take instructions from anyone except me, even when he followed me to the court after the death of my father. I wasn't ready to let him walk out just like that.“Did you hear me, Sir?” he continued, and looked at me, thinking I would help him send Antonio out.“What are you doing now?” Antonio asked. There was a serious problem but I was enjoying their drama.“I’m doing my work,” he answered, still wasting my time.“Just focus on that, please. We’ve s
CHAPTER 15----------------KATE’S POV----------------“Welcome! Kate,” a woman happily said immediately as I opened my eyes.I felt respite after I had woken up from the long sleep and elongated myself to the length I couldn’t continue any further.“Who are you?” I asked, throwing the heavy blankets away again. This time, I wasn’t naked.“I am Marilyn, your doctor for the day,” she introduced herself and sat beside me, “can I ask you a few questions to help me help you better?”“Sure, why not? And I am Kate Doe, your patient for the day,” I spoke, realizing my voice was normal.“That’s funny, it's nice you’re funny!” she laughed her ass out, “I already know your name, let’s move on to the main issue.” She added.“I don’t see that funny, I was trying to introduce myself,” I debated, sitting upright.“Yeah, funny people don’t know they are funny, by the way, I’m sorry,” she begged, “what happened to you, Kate? Tell me what you remember before you…just tell me about your day.” She requ
CHAPTER 16 ----------- Sitting idle in the luxury I didn’t deserve, I could only think of how I betrayed the innocent noblewoman and hurt Matt' sentiments. She didn’t deserve to die; I didn’t know she would die. I was only suspecting Catherine, Matt’s mother to be the killer, on the other hand, her voice and cry on the phone earlier described how much she loved and cared for Matt. Furthermore, Angela would have been the right person to be tagged a killer, as she nearly killed me the last time she hit that killer hill. That woman has no mercy and is too inhumane. I felt like an animal that day! She should have even helped me out after she pushed, I would have accepted her ‘sorry’ anyways.Thinking about these, my phone vibrated. It was Cassandra! At last, she texted me.The message read, “Hey Nightingale silly girl, I’m from the country. Sorry if it may hurt you!”“I’m sorry for ghosting you, okay? I got myself into trouble,” I quickly ran my fingers on the screen, and replied. I was
Chapter 17---------------“Is this supposed to be how you welcome me?” Matt inquired, making me feel embarrassed.“I…wasn’t actually…” I held my words, I didn't want to continue with a fucken comment. I wasn’t expecting him though, but that was not important as how he got to know my room, and why he was here, “how did you know I live here,” He just slipped his free hand into his pocket and posed, looking at me as if I just asked some dump query. He held his head down, then up. “It’s cold, are you not letting me in?” he grinned, gnashing his teeth in his jaws, “have you forgotten you filled some forms before you were picked?”“Cool!” I exclaimed, raising my hands to accept defeat. Meanwhile, I was still astonished and afraid to see him there. I was so uncomfortable as he wanted to come inside. We had nothing nice, food nor, at least some drinks, not to talk about snacks! “But can you wait here for a few seconds?” I requested, running in to tidy up my room and prepare a comfortable p
Chapter 18—-------------The next day —-------------I woke up the next day feeling happy for no reason, maybe, remembering my first kiss under the rain with my Hero. Yeah, I even had the memory with me last night in my dreams, after telling Cassandra, the NOSEY! After taking breakfast, I jumped on my route hoping to reach 'The Matt's Mansion' with the exact positive feeling, with his long black raincoat, which I had neatly scrubbed hanging and flying around my arm like a raven pet. Walking, running, and hopping forward, I reached my destination within an hour. It wasn't a short trek but I got myself used to it. "Come on Graciela, I said I won't do this again! I'm not going back to that. I am fine now, just fine!! I am not Matt who enjoyed crazy lovemaking adventures with women on paid deals, I am reserving myself for someone! Someone I love!" Matt angrily bellowed from somewhere. My head began to hurt, 'what trouble have I put myself in, falling in love with Matt.' I began to reg
Chapter 19—-------------MATT'S POV—----------------Two Weeks later—--------------------I woke up in the morning receiving calls from the C.O.L.E.MAN COMPANY. I had to meet the president and other CEOs from other companies. The president's investment would be nice and would go a long way to boost the company's fame. I sat down, thinking about how I would deal with answering and presenting. 'How would the president do such a thing, by hosting his meeting in my company!? Well, it's not bad to host the president!'"Good morning, Matt." Kate came greeting. She bounced to my washroom to do her morning chores. I had spent many weeks wondering if she had forgotten who I am and moved on or was just pretending not to know. Aside from that, she should be craving for me by now, but she showed no signs. "Come here, Kate," I ordered. She bounced back immediately after I ordered, panicking and trembling, looking tired and jittery. I had made her stay by my side all the time, but she was s
Chapter 20—------------KATE'S POV—----------Matt was spiking my heart with his beauty. He had shifted from being handsome to being beautiful. I just wanted to take a break away from him because my love for him kept growing and growing, but he was interested in a different person. He kept driving me crazy whenever he mentioned it! I understood why Angela kicked my ass, seeing me around Matt. But, I wouldn't do that to his lover. When he gives me that break where I would not work for him again, maybe, I would just wait for my Hero to come for me or let the wind of love blow me away to where ever it would let me settle. But, it should be a place where my heart can rest peacefully. "Do you want to tell me something?" Matt asked, breaking his long speechlessness when he found out that I was busily having a suspicious look at him. Yeah, I surely stole quite a bunch of his appearance with my stares. I was just taking my shares before he meets his lover. "I just want to steal more of
Chapter 21--------------------"Who sent you please?" I started getting scared thinking, Catherine has sent him to harm me. This man would just kill me with just his thumb hitting any part of me, "Me and Matt have nothing to do. We don't love each other, please let me go," I cried out, sobering and walking backward slowly. I tried to flee from him. "Don't attempt to move any step further," he warned, inserting his hand in his long black coat and pulling a shotgun, "Kate, walk straight up to me. You are not my target. It's me Antonio. Don't look back, just walk up to me," he confirmed and changed his gaze above my head. When I turned, it was a different man, dressed the same way as Antonio."Don't touch her, I swear I am going to blow your fucken skull outta ya fucken neck!" Antonio warned the unknown man dressed just like him, " Let's go now, Matt wants to see you, please."Passersby stood to watch the drama while others ran away from the scenes. They raised an alarm, inviting the
