Kenneth DomancoAfter an hour feeling like forever, the doctor walked out of the emergency room. I walk up to him panting hard like someone who just had a marathon race. "How is she feeling now?" I asked and he sighed. "For now, we can subdue the blood but, she needs a blood transfusion right away else, her life will be in danger, or we might end up losing her" "Don't you dare say that! Nothing must happen to my wife, you get that?!" I growled in anger as I suddenly jack his shirt. "Mr. Domanco, please calm down. This is against the hospital protocols" he said in a panicked tone. "Just do whatever you can! Do all it takes to save her! She needs to be saved at all cost!" I hiss out in anger. "I know and it's our job to save your wife at all cost. What we need right now is a blood donor. We have to get one as soon as possible to avoid complications" "Then fucking take mine! What are you waiting for?!" I burst. "It's not done that way. We need to carry out some tests first to be s
Kenneth Domanco"Please, whatever it takes, you have to treat her. Nothing must happen to her" my dad said to him in a pleading tone. "We will do our best.""I will foot the bill at the counter downstairs when I'm done here. That will be all, right? What you intend to tell us concerning her health?""Yes, Mr lemiere""And please, do whatever you can to get her treated. She's the only daughter that I have. And also, make an arrangement to transfer her to s better room. I do not like where she is""Yes, yes, Mr. lemiere. And please, don't be bothered about that. we will try our best to make her well and better""And, I hope we can see her now, right?""Yes, yes, Mr lemiere. You can go in to see her but I think, she might still be sleeping at the moment" "It's fine. We just need to see how she's fairing. We promised not to disturb her. And please, make sure to commence the treatment as soon as possible" "We will do that but you also have to help us too""On what?" "She needs someone
Alice AndersonI've been hearing two familiar voices, dad and Ken yelling and screaming at each other in anger. I could hear the agony also in Ken's voice but why can't I open my eyes? Why can't I just find my voice? Why am I feeling sharp pain down at my side stomach? Why can't I move? Am I dead? What happened to me? Can someone just talk to me or make me understand what's going on? I don't know if I'm still dead or alive. Does the dead hear words? Because I can clearly hear everything dad and Ken are both talking about. "So, is that the reason why you end up hurting her by making her almost lose her life? Because you're jealous of her?" I could hear the disappointment laced in that tone. Finally, I got to open my eyes slowly and my eyes landed on the two most important men in my life glaring at each other. I look around and saw myself in a weird room painted with milk color. Not only that, my dress has been changed and I'm putting on a weird short blue gown with a drip on my righ
Alice Anderson"Yes, he did." He answered whilst nodding his head.I can't believe this. Ken saved my life? He gave me his blood? But, why did he act so cold towards me just now if he cares this much about me? "Now, you need to stop thinking and just take a good time rest, okay? I will go and make arrangements and ask them to transfer you to another suitable room. I don't like here" He said, getting up. "But, I'm fine now. I can go home" I said. "No, you're not. There are still a lot of things to be done. You need to be examined well and even take the best treatment before you can be discharged. So, don't even try to argue with me on this. I'm doing this for us and you have to help me with this, okay?" He asked. "Hmmm" I hummed and pout at the same time. "I will be right back" he kissed my forehead and walk out of the room. My gaze fell on his retreating back till I couldn't get a glimpse of him anymore and I sighed. I tried looking at the wound in my side stomach but it was poi
Alice Anderson"No, he did not. He actually has some things he needs to tend to but not to worry, I'm here for you""Actually, we are all here for you" Sophia said, chiming in with dad. An hour has gone and we're all having a nice time as my friends and dad are trying to make the whole room lively for me. I also finished eating the food nanny prepared for me. She came and even cried when she saw my condition despite telling her I'm fine. She also said, she regretted not keeping a close watch on me. She thought, all this happened by a mistake but what she doesn't know is, all this was done by Ken. I made them all believe this was a mistake because of my negligence. Everyone bought my lies except Dad who still gave me that suspicious look. Dad and Sophia end up talking about business since that's what she's into. She actually inherits all her father's wealth as the only daughter of the family. She was brought up and trained to handle the family business and she has been doing that fo
Alice Anderson"But it wasn't intentional. I can promise y'all that he didn't mean for what happened should happen" "You're still defending him? Really, Alice? I can't believe Ken can go all the way to this stage and become a violent type" Sophia said in a disappointed tone.” I just told you girls whatever he did was not done internationally. He saved me! He saves my life!" I said. "What are you talking about? How can someone who hurt you save your life at the same time? You know what? I think you need to talk to Mr. Lemiere and just let him know you can't continue with this marriage of a thing anymore. This is becoming too much for you, Alice. You can't continue to bare all this. For how long when it's so obvious that he's never going to change his mind""I can't. I can't do it""What?!!" They s chorused in unison,"He saved my life, girls. He gave me his blood when the doctor said I needed it before I could survive else, I would have lost my life. He was there to save me""He did
Alice AndersonA month! A big whole month I've last set my eyes on Ken. After the incident at the hospital, the day he had a big argument with Dad, was the day I last saw him. Two weeks after that day, I got better. My wound got healed and my friends, I couldn't thank them enough. They left all their important work just to be there for me. The doctor did a series of checks on me every five days. When I asked what was the reason for the continuous test and several medications, he told me it was for my good. They're trying to work on my heart and I have to quit thinking too much also. I wonder how he got to know about it though. I know, I think a lot, especially since Ken I and got together and I found out he's been lying to me. Now, it's been a month already. I didn't hear anything from him. Whenever I ask dad about him, he would tell me I have nothing to be worried about and also, that Ken has been busy with some work then, he will end it with; 'I'm sorry for making you go through a
Alice Anderson"Dom! I'm here, is eve-" I burst the door open but stopped on my mid-sentence as my eyes came in contact with Ken. He was standing in front of the board with so many pictures of old men and young guys on it. Well, that isn't the issue for now. The main issue is Ken looking at me, his eyes are about to make a deep hole in my face. "K... Ken" I muttered but loud enough for both of them to hear me. He looked at me bored and rolled his eyes before taking at the paper on the desk right across from him and looking at it. I sighed and shut the door before walking closer to where Dom was sitting. He sat opposite Ken. "I'm glad you could make it on time" Dom said in his usual bossy tone whenever we have something important to do concerning work. "What's going on? You sound so serious when you called me earlier?" I asked, taking a seat across him. "That's because there's a big issue at hand right now. Take a look at the board" he pointed towards the board where Ken was stan
