I called you earlier," Damian repeated, his gaze fixed on Rose.
"Yes!" she replied, her tone slightly exasperated. "I heard you the first time.""I'm sorry," Rose apologized, her voice tinged with weariness. "It's been a long and confusing day."Damian nodded, a faint smile playing on his lips. He could see the signs of exhaustion etched boldly across Rose's face, realizing that they both shared the burden of a confusing day."Is he okay?" Rose inquired, looking directly at Damian. "You're probably his doctor, right?""Oh, no... no," Damian chuckled lightly, the smile lingering on his face. Internally, he wondered why he was smiling so much..He composed himself, straightening his posture and adjusting his expression to appear calm and collected. "I'm his friend," Damian started with a reassuring tone, his voice steady and confident. "And he's okay. He came out of surgery a few hours ago, and it wasn't t
Sebastian's piercing gaze lingered on Rose, his eyes seeming to search for something within her. Rose, feeling the weight of his stare, couldn't help but shift nervously in her seat. She had been filled with worry and concern ever since she had received the news of Sebastian's accident. Now, as she sat in front of him, her heart raced, unsure of how he would react to her presence, especially for the fact that she didn't find out in time. She was more concerned about his well-being than what his reaction would be.With a forced smile on her lips, Rose mustered up the courage to speak. "Sebastian, how are you feeling?" she asked, her voice quivering slightly. Tears welled up in her eyes as she took in the sight of his bandaged body, a blunt idea of what danger he might have faced.Sebastian, known for his sarcastic demeanor, responded to Rose's emotional outburst with a dry remark. "Oh, I'm just peachy," he retorted, hi
Rose stood frozen, her eyes wide with shock as the doctors rolled Sebastian away. She was momentarily paralyzed, her mind racing with fear and uncertainty. The chaotic scene was overwhelming, and she felt a wave of helplessness wash over her.In the midst of the commotion, Rose's trembling legs carried her to the nearest available seat, which happened to be beside Damian. Seeking some kind of support, she sat down, her hands still shaking uncontrollably. Damian,Ivy, who had been sitting beside prisca, stood up with a smirk on her face and started walking towards them. Understanding the tension that could arise, Damian tried to discourage Ivy from approaching Rose, knowing her tendency to provoke conflict. He reached out to grab Ivy's arm gently, attempting to steer her away from Rose.However, Ivy wasn't ready for anyone to tell her off just yet as she shook off Damian's grasp, her eyes fixated on Rose.
Prisca's heart pounded in her chest as she stood before the doctor, feeling the weight of the revelation she was about to share. She took a deep breath, gathering her thoughts, and began to recount the story of Sebastian's condition since his childhood."Doctor," Prisca began, her voice filled with a mix of concern and regret, "Sebastian has been living with a neurological condition since he was a young boy. It started with occasional seizures that would come seemingly out of nowhere."Her mind traveled back in time to the early years when he was still just a boy, to the moments when she witnessed Sebastian's struggles firsthand. She closed her eyes for a moment, trying to remember the details, wanting to convey the full scope of his journey."When he was a kid," Prisca continued, her voice carrying a tinge of nostalgia, "Sebastian would have these sud
"You too Rose," prisca said.Her words lingered in the air for a brief moment as Ivy departed, and then Rose's eyes widened in sheer astonishment. Her lips parted, and before she could even comprehend her own reaction, the word escaped her mouth, propelled by the force of surprise. "Sorry?" she exclaimed, caught off guard by the unexpected turn of events.Prisca, noticing Rose's bewildered expression, reiterated her previous statement with a touch of emphasis, as if to clarify her intent. "I said you can go home now too," she repeated, infusing her words with a sense of urgency and sincerity, urging Rose to leave and attend to her own affairs."No, I'm fine, Rose," Prisca said, her eyes opening to the realization that Rose had declined. Damian, visibly tired and exhausted, placed his hands on his head, observing how women always seemed to make things more complicated and difficul
Rose stepped out of the sleek limousine as it came to a graceful halt in front of the grand entrance to the mansion. The evening sun cast a warm, golden glow on the sprawling estate, accentuating its elegance and magnificence. The quietude of the surroundings enveloped her, intensifying the sense of solitude that had settled within her.As Rose made her way towards the mansion's entrance, she was greeted by Samuel, the trusted and ever-present butler. His face reflected a mix of concern and curiosity as he respectfully inquired about Sebastian's well-being."Good evening, Miss Rose," Samuel greeted her, his voice conveying a touch of genuine warmth. "I hope Mr. Sebastian is doing well. Is there any news?". It was the first time he had called her by her name. She smiled at him.Rose paused for a moment, appreciating Samuel's genuine concern for Sebastian's welfare. She knew that Sebastian's health was a matter of importance not onl
Damian, who was ordered to protect Sebastian's privacy and ensure his well-being, found himself amidst a chaotic scene outside the hospital. The relentless swarm of reporters from various media outlets had descended upon the premises, hungry for any updates regarding Sebastian's condition. It became increasingly apparent that their presence was hindering the hospital's operations and the privacy of the patients.Though overwhelmed by the sheer number of reporters, Damian summoned his inner resolve and attempted to navigate through the crowd. Frustration and determination etched across his face as he tried to clear a path, but his efforts seemed futile against the onslaught of flashing cameras and probing microphones.As Damian pushed through the swarm of reporters, their voices erupted in a cacophony of questions and demands for information."Mr. Solivan , can you confirm the ext
Rose poured her heart out to Emily during their phone conversation, she couldn't help but reminisce about the beautiful time she had spent with Sebastian just before the accident. She shared with Emily the details of the special place he had taken her, how magical it felt, and the connection she had finally started to feel with him. Rose's voice carried a mixture of longing and sadness as she recounted the events leading up to the tragic incident. She didn't understand his ways and that day felt for her like a begining with him, she couldn't hide the fact that she was slowly falling for Sebastian, this was a fact that she didn't mention to Emily or anyone else.Emily, empathetic to Rose's situation, listened attentively, providing a comforting presence on the other end of the line. As Rose finished speaking, Emily pondered for a moment before suggesting an idea."Rose, I understand that this is a difficult time for you," Emily began gently. "I
"Hey Rose," Ivy greeted warmly as she approached, extending her arms outward in a friendly gesture, offering Rose a handshake.Rose hesitated for a moment, keeping her hands comfortably by her side, but she maintained a polite demeanor. "Hello, Ivy," she replied, her voice carrying a hint of reserve.A smile graced Ivy's face, though a faint sense of realization crossed her features. "Ah, I understand now," she remarked, noticing that Rose wasn't reciprocating the handshake. A slight blush tinted Ivy's cheeks as she withdrew her hand, feeling a tinge of embarrassment at the misstep.Don't you worry, Rose," she continued, her voice gentle. "I'm not here to cause any problems. In fact, I was just about to leave." Rose mustered a faint smile and nodded, finding comfort in the fact that she didn't have to come up with a better response.
