With my eye shut still in the hospital I can hear Earnest voice whispering to me " baby don't leave me please come back to us " Immediately my eyes open but my head was spinning me so badly bandages were round my chest and arm where Beatrice stab me I slowly open my eyes, the faint glow of the hospital room's lights filters through my eyelids. Earnest's voice, filled with desperation and love, echoes in my ear, pulling me back from the brink. The room spins as I try to make sense of my surroundings, and the sharp pain in my chest and arm made me rememberI struggle to focus, but gradually the scene comes into view: sterile white walls, the rhythmic beeping of monitors, and the soft hum of medical equipment. Earnest is by my side, his eyes filled with worry and relief as he watches me awaken I was happy to see him but then my head was spinning me badly I can't remember how I got here but still remember I was stabWith effort, I manage to croak out a response, my voice barely above a w

Earnest's Pov After the incident with Jasmine, I couldn't shake off the worry gnawing at me. It was a stark reminder of the unpredictability of life and the fragility of our sense of security. Jasmine, normally so full of life and confidence, seemed visibly shaken. Her once bright eyes now held a shadow of fear.I didn't want her to be in danger anymore. I knew I had to do something to help her feel safe again. So, I started looking into different security options. Finding the right person for the job wasn't easy. I wanted someone reliable, experienced, and trustworthy. After interviewing several candidates and conducting thorough background checks, I finally found the perfect fit. Marcus, a retired police officer with years of experience in security, seemed like the ideal choice.Once Marcus started his duties, I could already sense a shift in the atmosphere at Jasmine's house. His presence brought a sense of reassurance, like a silent sentinel watching over her since I would n

Jasmine's PovI was sitting on the couch in my living room, thinking about Earnest getting married and leaving me to marry someone else.I felt a pang of loneliness. I didn't think Earnest would ever leave me for someone else. “I will make sure we end up together,” his word echoing in my ear. As I sat there thinking about what to do to see that my man would not be taken by some random girl, just then the door clicked and Drake entered with a smile on his face. I wonder why he is smiling like that. The last time I can remember, he told me about his mother being in the hospital, but then the smile was something else, not like someone taking care of his sick mother in the hospital. "Hello, ma,“ he said, a smile escaping from his lips. He was looking so lively.“Hi Drake, How are you doing?” I responded to his greeting."Ma, I'm good. I hope everything went smoothly when I was away,” he inquired. He smiled, and his smile faded as he gazed at my bandage arm. He bent down low. What hap

Jasmine's POVI can't believe Earnest thinks I'm cheating on him. I was thinking about the slap I gave him. It couldn't go out of my head. I was really upset with him, but then I was disturbed by the way I reacted toward him."Ma, do you need anything?" Drake asked, smiling sheepishly as he noticed my glum mood. Despite everything he did, I couldn't understand why I still kept him around. He was the reason for my current state of mind. Maybe firing him wouldn't be a bad idea. After all, I could ask my mom to stay. But then, the thought of her being without me made my heart sink."Oh, my poor mother," I sighed deeply while Drake stared at me, concerned."Ma, are you okay?" Drake inquired, his voice full of concern. But I no longer felt comfortable with him being around."Drake, your services are no longer needed," I managed to say, my voice firm but tinged with regret. Drake's eyes widened in surprise, then clouded with hurt. He had been by my side through thick and thin, but now I coul

Earnest's POVThe soft morning light filtered through the curtains, coaxing me out of my slumber with its gentle touch. Blinking against the brightness, I found myself enveloped in a warm embrace.Jasmine lay beside me, her head nestled against my chest, breathing softly in the tranquility of sleep. Confusion clouded my mind as I struggled to recall how I ended up on the couch, with Jasmine by my side. Did she lure me here, hoping to keep me to herself? The thought sent a shiver down my spine as I gingerly extricated myself from her embrace.“What happened to me last night? How did I get in here?” I felt a sharp pain in my head, and my memory can't catch up with what happened to me yesterday and how I ended up at Jasmine's house. I hit my head with my hand, remembering that today is my wedding. "Did Jasmine know about it? Is it the reason why she kidnapped me to make the wedding not hold?“ I couldn't help but ask myself, I need to get out of here before she wakes up and finds me here
