After leaving Daira’s house, the two headed back to the hospital and straight to the room where Zendaya was. “Oh my God, I’m so glad you’re back,” Samantha exhaled as she rushed over to where Kiandra was.“What happened?” Kiandra asked when she saw the worried look on her friend's face.“The results of the report came back. None of us are matches,” Samantha started and Kiandra felt her world starting to crumble. “Lucas however is a perfect match to Zendaya,” she informed them.“Really?" This time, it was Liam who spoke and Samantha nodded in affirmation. “He was here when the doctor announced the results and he has been admitted so the doctors can prepare him for the operation which is happening tomorrow night.”Kiandra sighed in relief and it felt as though a huge burden had been lifted up her chest upon hearing that a match had been finally found and that match happened to be Lucas.“The doctors wanted you to be here before taking Zendaya out to continue the conditioning process as
Kiandra waited for some time as she wanted to make sure Lucas had fallen asleep before leaving the room.After making sure he was indeed asleep, she pulled the sheets over him and left the room to go see her daughter who was also asleep."Finally you're back, I thought you had forgotten about me," Samantha exhaled as she shifted so Kiandra could see on the couch."You don't have work tomorrow?" Kiandra asked as she took her seat next to her friend."I took two days off," Samantha answered. "Now tell me what's going on. I feel so left out," she said to Kiandra."All these years I spent hating and thinking Lucas was the one responsible for what happened to Zendaya and that had been a lie. It was actually Daira who responded," Kiandra told Samantha."That day when I texted him, he was in his office and Daira came to visit him. He got a call for something important and left the office with Daira in it. However, he left his phone and that was when my message entered.""That bitch!" Samanth
There were guards stationed outside his room and when they saw her, one of the guards reached out and opened the door for Kiandra.She entered and saw him fast asleep on the bed. Seeing him sleeping made her smile to herself as he always had trouble sleeping.She walked up to the bed and sat beside him. “No matter how many thank you I say, it won’t be enough for what you’ve done for me and our daughter,” she whispered to him. She then reached out and gently stroked his hair.“Now both of you get better quickly so I can tell you both the truth,” Kiandra urged the sleeping Lucas. She didn’t say anything after that, instead, she stared at him. “If I say I love you, will you love me back?” she asked him.She was about to say more when the lights suddenly went off making her wonder what was happening.****“Hey, will you stand guard for a while? I want to take a quick nap,” one of the guards who had been stationed outside Lucas’ room asked his partner. “Sure, I’ll wake you up in two hours
When Lucas reappeared he was dressed. His eyes fell on Zendaya and he made his way over to where Liam was standing. "What did the doctors say about the operation?" He asked Liam."That it was a success and that she will be observed for the next few weeks," Liam answered."Hmm," Lucas mumbled and he cast one last look at Zendaya. He then turned his attention to his sister. "Cancel whatever plan you have for today and stay with the little girl. A woman named Samantha may come to see her, if she does, let her in. Apart from her and the doctors, no one else should get close to the girl," he instructed and Belle nodded."New guards will soon arrive. Till then, hold down the fort." And with that, Lucas turned and left the room.“Go and make sure he doesn’t go overboard,” Belle urged Liam who turned and followed Lucas who was heading straight for the elevator.“Where are we going?” Liam asked.“To see the darn head of this hospital,” Lucas answered and he pressed the button to take him to t
“Put your hands where I can see them,” one of the police officers said to her, his and his partner's gun still pointed at her.Kiandra panicked when she realized what was going on in their minds. “I swear I didn’t kill him. He was dead when I woke up,” she cried out.“You’ll explain at the station,” the same officer retorted. “Ma’am don’t make this difficult for us, put your hands where I can see them,” he asked her again and Kiandra did as he told her to do.The second officer walked up to Kiandra and handcuffed her. “You have the right to remain silent, anything and everything you say, can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford one, one will be provided by the state,” the officer read her rights to her and they led her out of the house.When they got out of the house, she saw that a crowd had gathered around the house and they were all staring at her judgmentally.“What the hell is going on here?” She heard a familiar
After Lucas left the police station, he headed straight to the hospital to check up on Zendaya, as he received a message from Belle that the little girl had regained consciousness and was asking for her mother.On his way there, he saw that the news about Kiandra getting arrested for murder had broken out and that she was being dragged and he himself as well was being called out for still supporting her. The person behind this had leaked the news to the media and that made him smile as he didn’t want to imagine what would happen to that person when he found them. When he got to the hospital he immediately headed to Zendaya's room and when he got there he headed to the little girl crying for her mother. This was really going to be hard. Taking a deep breath, he stepped into the room, and his sister heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing him there.“Where is my mom?” Zendaya immediately asked him when she saw him. “She said she was going to be here when I woke up, so where is she?”“I’l
After Lucas left him stranded at the base, Liam took another car and he headed to the hospital as it was better if he stayed with Zendaya and Belle considering how the guards had failed to protect Kiandra.As he walked past the doors of the hospital, he sighed as it felt as though the last week he had been to the hospital was more than the times he had visited the hospital throughout his entire life. When he got to the floor where Zendaya’s room was, he saw Belle standing outside the room and in front of her was a man he had never seen before. He would have ignored them and walked into the room had the man not leaned forward and kissed Belle.Liam felt his blood boil upon seeing that and he immediately had the urge to rip the man’s head for kissing her. ‘She’s off limits,’ his rationale yelled to him and this made him calm down a bit.And so, instead of walking over to the man and punching him, he cleared his throat to alert the two of his presence and sure enough, they turned to fac
A YEAR AGO.“Sir, where to?” The driver asked Liam after he had gotten into the car. It was late in the night and it was one of those nights where Liam stayed back in the office due to him having various meetings. Liam looked at his watch and saw that it was already past eleven o’clock. “Take me home,” he ordered his driver who immediately started the car and started driving.Liam looked outside the window as the car drove. Even though it was very late, there were still a lot of cars out on the road and this caused traffic. Seeing that they would be on the road for a while, he rested his head on the seat and closed his eyes.His thoughts immediately took over and it reminded him that Belle’s birthday was in less than an hour. He opened his eyes and ran his fingers through his hair roughly as he was annoyed with himself.Belle Valencia wasn’t like other women whom he could have easily. She was someone he couldn’t have and he had tried to convince himself of that fact countless times.
