Ellen walked out of the club trying to find Kay but she did not see him anywhere. She scoffed angrily. She had seen Kay watching the gate when she drove by earlier. She pretended to be going somewhere else to see who the person was. She parked the car somewhere closeby and watched Kay for as long as he stayed there. She knows no one would dare stay right in front of Nicholas's resident unless they want something. After watching the car leave, she decided to follow the person and found out it's a man. She saw the man chasing away everyone that came towards him so she tried. She is surprised to see how good looking he is and wondered what he could want. She decided to feed her curiousity by mentioning Rose. To her surprise, he reacted in a different way. She knows he is hiding something from her. She drove back to the villa and asked Nicholas to see her outside. She is ready to expose Rose though she may not have full evidence yet. If only Nicholas would investigate her, then
Nicholas went back to the room to check on Rose. After he cooked for her, she took drugs rested. She has been asleep for a few hours and he has been busy watching her before Ellen called him. He sat down beside her, admiring her with a smile. He is relieved that she is safe now but is furious because he hasn't caught the culprit yet. His mind went to what Ellen said about Rose. He did not believe it. He only thinks Ellen is doing this out of spite for Rose. He understands why Ellen sees her as a competition, it's all because of him. "I am going to catch the bastards that did this to you. I'll make them pay enough that they'll never come across me in their next lives." He promised holding her hand. She opened her eyes with a smile, "Thanks for your promise." His eyes lit up, "You are awake. How do you feel now? Do you need anything?" She shook her head, "I don't need anything. You are already here, that's all I need. You shouldn't act recklessly just to get revenge. I don't want
Nicholas left the hospital after sorting out what he needed and went straight home to Rose. He couldn't stop thinking about Ellen on the way. The fact that Ellen got into an accident just because of him made him realize how obsessive she was. He had never thought of it that way but with what he has seen now, he doesn't need to be told twice. There's definitely something wrong with Ellen if she's keeps acting that way. Things are not supposed to be like that. He got back home and went to the training building first to get some things from her apartment before going to his villa. FLASHBACK "Don't leave Nicholas. Can't you just stay with me?" She said, weakly closing her eyes and holding on to him tight. Nicholas sighed in frustration. She looked so pale and weak, why is she thinking of him at a time like this? "I don't know what you are doing right now. You got hurt and you should focus on getting better not doing this. Just rest up." He scolded her. However, she is not the ty
BEFORE NICHOLAS CAME HOME Rose could not fall asleep as she kept thinking of Nicholas going to Ellen. Even though she suggested it, she hated it with all her might. How can she let such a thing happen to her? She regretted asking him to check on Ellen. She must be crazy to have suggested such a thing. "What was I thinking? Sending my boyfriend to that manipulative witch! Now she'll do everything just to coax him into staying with her!" She complained angrily. The door suddenly opened, her eyes lit up thinking that Nicholas came back already. But she's disappointed to see it's just a woman her age, dressed in the maid's uniform. Rose stared at the maid unable to understand why she would barge in like that. "Excuse me miss, don't you think you should knock before coming into the room?" Rose asked her politely. The maid gave Rose a glare and clearly had judgment written on her face. "I was told you would be sleeping since you are injured. I didn't want to
"Is that what happened?" Nicholas asked the maid after Rose explained everything. The maid looked down, but she wasn't ready to confess her wrongdoings. She isn't going to let Rose win her just like that. "Sir, she is just saying this because the drugs are having a great effect on her. I have no idea what she wants. She has been sending me up and down since and she threatened to report me when you arrive." "What? You lying-" Rose tried to say but the maid cut her off. "Miss, I don't know why you are doing this to me? Please don't make me lose my job. I've done nothing wrong." She pleaded with Rose faking her tears. Rose could hardly believe how fake and manipulating the maid is. Rose believes that this maid is worse than her. How can she lie so openly with no remorse. Edwin scoffed, "Shut your mouth! She wouldn't lie against you just because she is under the use of drugs. You did this, didn't you?" "No sir! I am telling you the truth! She's just doi
Kay has been conducting a secret investigation over the last few days to find out if his father has something to do with Rose's shooting or someone else. Even though he hasn't spoken to Rose for days, he still feels responsible for all that is happening to her. Being the son of her captor is enough to make him hate his existence. But his father is not understanding the situation at all. He is afraid that he might never see her again if he doesn't do something. "What have you been doing for the past few days?" Harry asked out of nowhere. Kay was lost in thoughts as he kept looking at the information on his phone. He is still unable to get the pieces together. It's like the people who did this to her are ghosts. They must have a good source if they are able to hide this well. He jumped when Harry arrived from nowhere, "Are you fucking with me man! What the hell are you doing appearing like that?!" Harry shrugged, "I've been doing your job for a few days, that's what."
Ellen opened her eyes again for the umpteenth time in the day. She has been in the hospital for a few days and has only seen Nicholas once. She is sad and annoyed that she can't leave even if she wants to because Nicholas strictly instructed the hospital not to let her out. Nicholas was said to be on an emergency trip for the past few days which is why he could not come to the hospital. She thinks Nicholas is probably at home with Rose and lying about his trip. While she was still thinking about this, James walked in with some food. She scoffed and looked away. When the door opened, she has gotten to excited thinking it was Nicholas. They say when you think of someone too much, they are the next person you would see walking through the door. All that seems to be a lie. James gently put down the food bag he brought. His eyes scanned the room, hopefully waiting for her to look at him. It would be a lie at this point if he denies what he feels for Ellen. It's something he's alw
Nicholas adjusted his seat to answer to her. The wind blew fast as if trying to blow them away. Rose adjusted her hair that scattered due to the effect of the wind. She adjusted her long floral gown flowing in the direction of the wind. Then she took a sip of the mango juice, then patiently waited for him to talk. In simple terms, he is in a state of shock. "Why aren't you saying anything? Are you not going to talk to me anymore? Why? Are you shocked that I know what you did before coming here?" She asked him in confusion. "That's not what happened." He tried to explain, "I actually came through the hospital road. I didn't want to waste time going back there and I decided to check on her. I didn't mean to go there before coming home." Rose nodded, even though she feels that he might be right. She didn't want to forgive him that easily. She's mad that Ellen is still doing everything to get his attention and he is actually giving her all of the attention too. "It
