Elijiah Kris Bach, a CEO of the Bach Group of Companies, owning chains of hospitals and pharmacies, manufacturing the most trusted medicines and ruling the world of pharmaceutics and the field of medicine, has always been able to let her empire stand alone until she was pestered by the board to agree for marriage of convenience and produce an heir to secure the company's future especially now that her Lolo, the last living owner of the Bachs, is not getting any younger and is suffering from heart complications.
After she went home to the Philippines after for almost 12 years, unexpected events with the oddest people she met welcomed her. Everything was too overwhelming especially those hazel eyes owned by a cardiothoracic surgeon in one of her hospitals that are so familiar to her – eyes that can make her feel a mixture of euphoria and a pang of pain.
"I'm confident I could heal people's hearts. Including yours," He said but could he really? Could he really heal her cold and broken heart?

Chapter: Chapter 14I woke up early and prepared salad sandwiches for Lolo. I went to his hospital room to give it to him before going to my office. Unluckily, he was still asleep so I just when to my office, on the top floor.For now, I'll be work here in the hospital so I can easily monitor Lolo. The company building is far and it will be more convenient this way.A file containing the new medical TV show is placed on my desk. Madelle already briefed me about this back in France. It's part of the project of the foundation. It'll offer medical assistance and medical missions. It'll also be like a talk show on some days where there will be different guests per week.There are three doctor hosts for the first week, Dr. Frue, Dr. Dy, and Dr. Mendezuela. Him again? Why is he such a busy and trusted man by the Bachs? I bet he is wooing the HR team.I thought Dr. Mendezuela has his hands full for my Lolo's operation. Looks lik

Chapter: Chapter 13Growing up in a world where snakes are rampant, I’ve already been able to distinguish which one is venomous and not. Surely, there are snakes that act like they are harmless but actually aren’t.But being in this industry for years already gives me the ability to identify them even with eyes closed.But this hazel-eyed specie in front of me is starting to make me doubt."I'm confident I could heal people's hearts. Including yours."His voice is soft yet so full of control as if not letting any demon within get unleashed. His eyes turned a shade darker as he looks at me with longing shadowed by the amusement dancing in his eyes.I rolled my eyes as I look away, not wanting to be pulled deeper in the depths of unknown.Yes, he can be the best surgeon in the world if that’s what he claims to be. I’ll give that to him. But my heart?Sorry, Doc. But my heart has been lon

Chapter: Chapter 12Michiko reminded me for my lunch meeting at La Cuisine Française. Unlike the other meetings I had so far, I’m looking forward to this one since it isn’t all about the rolling money in my company.I looked at the interiors of the restaurant and can’t help but feel nostalgic about it. The ambiance is comfy and warm despite its elegance and sophistication. Maybe because this has the French ambiance that I’m used to.The maître d’ guided me towards the table reserved by Michiko. It was a four-seater table located far from the crowd.Michiko immediately wave her hand as she flashed me toothy grin as soon as she saw me.“Good noon Ma’am!” She beamed as she assisted me in sitting down. She doesn’t have to because I can do it on my own but she was persistent.This is quite an important meeting since it’s all about the legal affairs of my company.The lawyer requested for the meeting her

Chapter: Chapter 11The party last night was quite exhausting but it all ended well. I went home to the mansion last night instead of going home in my condo.As much as I want to live with my grandfather in the mansion, it's quite far from the office so it's not convenient to go home every day. But I do my best to stay here from Thursday or Friday till the weekends or whenever my schedule is not too cramped.I woke up early and had a light jog around the entire manor. Lolo was already awake when I came back but instead of greeting him a good morning with a smile, I frowned because of the coffee he is drinking."You shouldn't drink that. That’s not good for you and your doctors didn’t allow you to."I was about to snatch the mug away from him when he immediately hid it from me like a little kid."Darling, this is my last coffee. Let me savor it." He pleaded like a puppy.How could I say no to that

Chapter: Chapter 10My blood rushed to my face as soon I saw his cocky smile. Did he know? The hell, he didn’t!I squinted my eyes and let my forehead creased although I’m not really quite sure if he can see my expression because of the mask but at least, I gave effort in acting like normal!He gently tugged my hand and placed it on his right hand as his left hand gently held on my left elbow as he assisted me walking down the grand staircase.Those hazel eyes made me forget where I was and what I was doing. I didn’t want to give a damn with this party and just want to stare at his hazel eyes all night. And fuck myself for being like that! Ew, Elijiah, how could you be so low?When I started walking down, his left hand caresses my elbow gently as it moved towards my bare back. I almost froze when I felt his large, warm and calloused hand touching my cold bare back but good thing, I still managed to remain calm.

Chapter: Chapter 9I just stayed inside the room I’m at while waiting for my turn to be called. There were still performances from famous stars and artists. Even businessmen and doctors who have a talent in performing arts performed as a tribute for me.The room is adjacent to the ballroom they’re in so it’s not that hard for me to go to the venue. So when it was my time to come up the stage, I just passed by the adjacent door connected to the ballroom which will leads to a platform connected to a grand staircase.I was already briefed what to do so Andrea just simply guided me and help me put on my mask. Her hands were even a bit cold and shaking. I can’t help but laugh at that. What is she so nervous for?My mask is in silver with gold and black patterns. It has a few white and black feathers with streaks of gold at both sides in different sizes."This is Elijiah." She said as soon as she finished tying ribbon of my mask
