The date ended well with them just bickering. Jared did not want to talk much, but Debra has a way of bringing out that side. The fact that he could only see May while he looked at Debra made it worse for him. He wanted the date to end as soon as possible. He had no choice than to drop her home too. The ride there was way too silent. Debra tried striking a conversation and Jared would just ignore it. Debra did not give up with all the signs Jared gave her to stop. "I'll see you in our next date. I think we still have a lot to talk about that we haven't done yet." Debra told him, as the car stopped in front of the house. "I won't say I am looking forward to it. You know I don't like lies." He replied bluntly. She shrugged, "No offense taken. Would you like to come inside and say hi to my parents?" "I wouldn't want that to happen. Considering the fact that I took their daughter away without their permission the other night. Plus, I have someone very important waiting for me. I must
Sirens wailed outside the hospital as Jared is rushed into the hospital. Somehow some reporters managed to get the news and are already there. May and Matt followed Jared into the hospital as he is injured on his arm. Jared didn't move, he just closed his eyes which gets May very worried. They are not allowed to go inside the theatre with the doctors. The previous event replayed in May's mind. She recalls how she rushed to Jared and screamed his name. His blood stained her hand and clothes even though they are black. "It's all my fault. This wouldn't have happened to him if he didn't meet me. What am I going to do? I don't want him to die." May cried, trembling in fear. This is the first time in her life that she is so scared of losing someone. She is so used to acting so tough and expecting the worse in any situation. She doesn't even think she would cry like this if it was someone other than her best friend. Matt has never seen May in this situation before. He remains calm even t
"You were awake the whole time?" May asked, pulling away from the hug. She stared into his eyes to be sure he is okay and not pretending. He nodded, giving her a smile though in pain. "I am fine. If I knew you'd be worried about me like this, I shouldn't have opened my eyes. You look so cute worrying about me. Who would have thought you'd be like this?" He teased her. She frowned, "It seems you are fine enough to annoy me. I should just leave and let your parents come look after you."She stood up to leave, he stopped her by grabbing her hand. "Don't leave. What if something bad happens to me after you leave?" He pleaded, giving her puppy eyes. It's the first time she is seeing this cute side of him. She wants to smile, but she controlled herself and kept a straight face. "Are you trying to threaten me with that? You should know I don't actually care if you got knocked down by a moving car." She lied, hitting his shoulder. "Ah!" He winced in pain, his eyes shut tightly. That
“That girl is seriously getting on my nerves!!“ Madam Diana yelled, pushing everything on the table away in anger. She left the hospital so angry that she couldn't even see her son thanks to May. The fact that May could threaten them so boldly and openly kind that angered her more. Since she has become the very powerful woman she is now, no one has dared looked down on her. Especially not someone who is not on the same level as her. "How dare she? She dared to talk about things like that in front of me?" Madam Diana fumed more. Her assistant also followed them to the hospital and waited at the reception. Her name is Leah and she is almost the same age with Matt. Unlike Matt who is calm whenever his boss gets angry, Leah is always uneasy. She could be the one to face the wrath if she makes a single mistake at that point. Sir Jason sat down and pressed the bell on the table before him. A maid ran out from nowhere like they've been stationed there. "Get me some whiskey." He told the
Madam Diana stood up to face her daughter. She is still in shock to how she got into the house without her knowledge and heard everything she was saying on the phone. "What are you doing here Stacey? You are supposed to be in Georgia with your boyfriend! What do you think you are doing back home?" She yelled. Stacey stopped in front of her with rage, "You mean the idiot you and dad picked out for me? I dumped him." She gasped, "What did you do? That's the governor's son! What on earth have you done this time?" "I broke a bottle on his head." Stacey replied bluntly. Madam Diana gasped, "You did what? And you dare to say it in front of me? You ungrateful little brat!" Madam Diana wanted to slap Stacey but the next thing Stacey said stopped her. "Why did you do that to my brother? Are you going to kill me too if I don't do what you want? Is that how obsessed you are now?" Stacey asked. Madam Diana is too stunned to speak. She just stared as her daughter spoke the dreadful truth a
A hand gently tapping her body woke May up. She slowly rubbed her eyes and saw that it's already morning. She looked at Jared and he is still sleeping. Which means he is not the one who woke her up. She turned to check who it was and saw that it's one of the nurses."Good morning ma'am." She greeted with a smile.She immediately got up that it shook Jared a bit. She did not want to injure his wound so she carefully got up."I am sorry for waking you up ma'am. I just need to check his wound and change the bandage. I hope you don't mind." The nurse informed her.May shook her head moving back, "No I don't. Please don't get the wrong idea, you can continue with whatever you wanted to do."The nurse nodded, "Yes ma'am."May scoffed, “She is older than me. Why does she keep calling me that?"The
The anger building up in Debra and madam Diana is enough to make the entire building collapse. The fact that she is bold enough to speak to her in a manner that no one else would dare to made madam Diana furious. She turned to Celine in anger, "Do you see what she is doing even in front of you? You think I should still be merciful and hold back my anger for this girl? What insolence!" "Well... I am sorry, I didn't know she has gotten to this level of not caring who is in front of her." Celine apologized, to May's disgust. Jared palmed his face, he tried to say something but May beat him to it. Her face did not look scared at all, she seems very confident with herself. "I don't care what you are going to do, I will pull this off. I told you yesterday already, I am too confident and no one can make me stop. I won't let you trample on me just because you have more power than I do." "MAY! SHUT YOUR MOUTH!" Celine scolded her. "Madam Diana, you shouldn't listen to her. She is just bei
"I'm telling you! She knows! I don't know how she found out but that's what she told me. I've been restless since I came back from the hospital." Celine told her husband, pacing up and down the room. She could not believe that on madam Diana knows about her family secret that no one else, not even their children knew of. She begins to regret ever trying to get involved with their family. Why is madam Diana digging her past and why are they trying to find out if one of the children are theirs or not? "You should calm down. Maybe she wasn't actually trying to tell you that. Maybe she was trying to find out from you and you already told her everything with your nervous state. You should have just kept calm and denied all the accusations." Dave told her. She scoffed turning to him with a glare, her nose flared indicating how much anger she felt. "How can you say that at this moment? Are you going to keep defending her and tag me as the liar? I just told you what she did and the least y
