Chapter 6

"My god! Ali's been with you for what? 20 minutes and now she's here laying in a hospital bed!"

Hearing Cassy's angry remarks, he could only lower his head.... Taking a glimpse of his beloved sleeping soundly at the hospital bed as if she's fighting for her life

"Babe, calm down...." Paul tried to calm his Fiancée down, but knowing that she's overprotective of her made it not so helpful

"Calm down? Do you think I can calm down seeing Ali, laying in this freaking hospital bed?!?" She's shouting at the tip of her lungs, luckily that Catherine provided them soundproof ward, knowing that Cassy will go overboard

"And why we didn't hear anything, regarding of your comeback?" Isabella said after seeing Cassy who's trying to hold her tempter, angering at the fact that her precious best friend is laying in the bed

The only ones who knew of his comeback are the guys only...

"That's right! I don't know why I'm angering to the fact that she's unconscious because of you,when your existence here in Australia is already a threat to her health!" Cassy exclaim, scolding him at the best she can do,

Because if they don't, they know how he'll eventually try to come back in Ali's arms....with or without memories

"Aaron, how could you hide this from me?"Catherine asked her beloved, who's trying to avoid her gazes and such

Standing by the door, ignoring her whinings....

Adrian looked at his friend's actions, they're in shambles just because that he came home without anyone knowing,

"Adrian, please.... I know that you want to attend the wedding, but think of Ali, you don't want her to remember what you did! Right?"hearing Cassy's words he can only lower his head.... bitting his lips, trying to forget about what happened in the past

"If that damned Actress knew you're here...she would've pounce unto you,do you think that she won't take the opportunity to humiliate Ali?" Cassy told him again, and as always he kept quiet

Sitting beside his beloved, who's sleeping soundly at the hospital bed.... His heart break at the sight of her, and it breaks even more after hearing Cassy's words

"Cass, please stop talking about the past-"

"You all know, how that damn snake tried to do to her! That snake almost killed her, do you expect me to believe that the snake had the right to be called Ali's friend?"She continue to shout, who's trying not to mention of the name they won't mention ever since that happened

"Viola is just jealous-"

"Don't fucking mention her name because I hate it...."she threatened Liam who got intimidated and hid at Isabella's back who's trying to force him out and face Cassy's wrath

"None of us wanted even to call her name and it's just too rude to call her snake-"

"So you wanted to sympathize her? Do you think that she deserve even the tiniest bit of sympathy? That after she betrayed and hurted Ali that her Fame and rep rose up like an instant?"she continued to rant making every guy at the room became scared of her whimpering at the back of each of their partners

They knew how Cassy is like when she's gonna be angry, and they knew that the only one who can calm her down is seeing Alicia, all fine and healthy

Cassy took a huge sighed, as she placed her hands in the nearest Table to support her body from standing after ranting non stop ever since they arrived

"So? Why are you 3 months early from the wedding, Mr. Adrian Parker?"Cassy asked but her tone is still the same as a while ago, angry....her tone filled with frustration

"Baby, it's partially my fault so don't blame it on him-" Paul tried to exclaim but couldn't finish his words when Cassy showed her palm to him, making him shut up

"I'm asking Adrian, not you Paul..so shut up"Cass said as she stared intensely at the man who's holding Ali's hands desperately

"So, tell me .... Adrian Parker, I know that you didn't came early simply because that Paul told you to, so tell me... what's the reason?"Cassy added as she crossed her arms, her right brow was raised while tapping her feet indicates that she's waiting for his words

Hoping that he had a valid reason for his sudden appearance that none had known only to be found out because they need to gather up in the hospital for their muse

"I was hoping that I can spend some time with her,even if she doesn't know me..."he honestly said, knowing that Cassy won't be fooled if he try to think of an excuse because she's a psychologist, he decided to state the truth rather than hiding it

"I want to approach her as a businessman rather than her past lover, I want to be by her side...."he added looking at his friend's to let them see he is sincere with his words

Because everyone of the group knows, how sincere is his love for Ali....and it would be a life if they didn't think how they wanted them back, how they wanted the two be happy

"I see, but shouldn't you consulted us first? Let us know because we can help you hide from the eyes of her grandmother" by just merely mentioning 'her grandmother' everyone in the room flinched except for Cassy

Knowing how ruthless that woman is....

"I-I haven't thought about that- "

*Ding*

He couldn't respond after hearing Cass's phone had ring, knowing that someone had just texted her

"Wait for a moment"she told everyone as she fished her phone in her purse as she opened it and read the message....her eyes went wide as she reads it

Making everyone in the room feel anxious at her actions....

"Ali's Mother will be coming, along with Grandma Lily and will be arriving in 5 minutes" and with that, everyone's eyes had been in him

"You need to hide, like literally right now....Adrian, we can't have Grandma Lily knows your back!"Isabella exclaimed as the group panicked while they try to hide him in the room,

Away from the eyesight of the most ruthless woman alive....

__________

"Grandma Lily! Mother! You've arrived!"

Cassy welcomed her family, as both the Olivera heads both former and current, even if they didn't announce...they knew that the ladies have more power than the men in the family

Walking inside of the room,looking at their poor princess, laying and sleeping soundly at the hospital bed

"What happened that it led for Ali in the hospital,again?" Her Grandma named Lily, the 70-year old matriarch who had no plans on retiring on preserving the Olivera's name

"Cassy?"

"It seems that someone must've talk about her past Grandma" she simply responded, using her knowledge of pyschology...she tried to tell them that someone else has been with her except for Adrian

"Really?who's the last person she met?"

"Me,Grandma..."Paul responded as Lily only nodded knowing that Paul won't utter a word about the past

Everyone is scared, everyone is intimidated by Lily's presence... They knew how over protective they are when it comes to Ali, because she'll be the future successor

And everyone knew that Andrew Olivera won't inherit the family's name, and he knew that too ....

It is just a diversion for everyone to fool because of other family traditions that only men can inherit the family, but that's not the case of the Oliveras

"It must've been her blind date"Her mother said as her grandma then looked at her mom, in a confuse state

"Blind date? With whom?"

"Some Sanchez because they blackmailed us for of using tricks in the G****e Start Up"her mother explained as her grandma only nodded

"Then how does that young Sanchez knew that Parker and his relationship with Ali?"hearing grandma's words, everyone in the room flinched

Hearing his name being mentioned, Adrian couldn't help but feel anxious, he knew that because of his wrong deed, everyone in Olivera's doesn't trust him anymore

"He must've also studied in the same school as ours"Isabella responded, while Liam secretly hold her hand to comfort her

"Then we must dispose of that young Sanchez, we can't afford to let everyone knew that our family almost became one with those bastards of a Parkers"hearing his name being cursed out

Adrian couldn't care less because he knew that he lost their support for their life because someone had framed him

Even if her family cursed his, he would he hurt but wouldn't show because he is the main reason why they hate him, why they won't trust him

His chest tightens, hearing the coldness of her grandmother's voice,

"Is Adrian still in the Canada?" Hearing the question everyone's eyes started to at each other, wondering what they'll say

Each of their heart beats started to get abnormal....feeling anxious about the sudden question,

Seeing their silence,her mother started to be suspicious about it, doubting whether that man came back to Australia without anyone knowing

"Adrian...."noone can talk about it, because they knew that they can know whether He came back or not, they'll know that they lied

"Mother, I think it's time for us to go back, we still have a family meeting to attend, and everyone must know Ali's current condition" Her mother told Grandma Lily who only nodded, her mother tried to make it as an excuse

Grandma Lily walks out from the room first as Ali's mother stayed behind first..... The one who's been suspicious about this whole set up

She walked near to Cassy,leaning on her ear "I expect an answer from you Cassandra"whispering softly that brought shivers in her spine

"I understand Mother..."Cassy responded as Her mother smiled lightly and waved everyone goodbye, while taking a glimpse at the cabinet of the room, suspecting that someone is inside before she walked out of the room, following her mother who's already waiting at the car to go and attend the family's meeting

As Catherine closed the door, everyone them breath in relief, knowing that her family isn't here anymore

"Shit, it's been some time since I've seen Grandmother and she's scary as she was in the past"Isabella proclaimed as everyone agreed

Liam walked at the cabinet, opening it only to reveal a gloomy Adrian, who's been hurt by the truth that it was said by her family who just visited

"Bro, you ok? How did you feel suddenly meeting your almost in-laws?"Aaron asked him as he helped him out of the small cabinet which he fitted in perfectly

"It's somehow strange.... They've been cursing my family name and I don't feel any pain from it"he told everyone, showing a small smile that it's obvious that he's hurt

His heart can't know the difference anymore because he's been always feelings like this ever since of their break up

Walking up to Ali, looking at her...taking her hand as he held it tightly,placing it in his cheeks, only for him to feel the coldness of her hand

"We can't meet anymore.... it's best for us to do this, because your Grandmother hates me and I can't bare it seeing you hurt because of me" he told her as if she can hear, holding tightly her hands,looking at her sadly

"You'll be forever in my heart ...."he muttered as he take a light peck in her hands, before he slowly let go, gently placing her hand in the side of the bed

Standing up....

Looking at her for the last time in person, before he walked out.....

As the group looked at his actions, they couldn't help but feel sentimental....knowing how he sacrifice himself for her

"What should we do for them?" Aaron muttered as they closed the door, where Adrian left

Leaving the group filled with sentimental thoughts.... Not knowing what they should do for the two

"They've been though so much, aren't we being cruel?"Isabella stated as always Liam, agrees her words

"But we don't have any other choice.... Her parent's just want him to get away from her!"Cassy explained as everyone could only sighed loudly

"Can we even continue hide his presence from her family?"
