Bitter Sweet Love
Crystal Blues, a young woman from a low-class family, endured the tragic loss of her parents when she was just twelve years old. Left with the weighty responsibility of caring for her younger sisters, she faced a challenging path ahead.
Fortune smiled upon her when her path crossed with an archangel in the name of Mervin Brooklyn who offered his assistance, thus lightening the burden she bore.
As fate would have it, Crystal eventually obtained evidence pointing to her parents' murderers, only to discover that they were part of a formidable and powerful family.
Life took an even more complicated turn when she found herself entangled in a complex love triangle. Her affections were torn between Mervin, her guardian archangel, and the daughter of the family responsible for her parents' demise.
Fuelled by a burning desire to bring the responsible family to justice, Crystal made the bold decision to reveal the damning evidence she held against them.
However, the tables quickly turned, and Crystal's loved ones were thrust into jeopardy, becoming bargaining chips in exchange for the proof of the family's wrongdoing.
Now, she stands at a harrowing crossroads, forced to make a life-altering choice that could either rescue her from impending tragedy or condemn her to a painful repetition of history.

Chapter: Shocking ConfessionThe VIP room smelled different. Its walls were white and clean. Not even a single stain could be seen on the walls. The room provided a comforting and reassuring atmosphere to the patient and guardian.A carpet covered the whole room, and in the center of the room was a bed with an IV stand beside it. A drip was connected to the stand with a small pipe, correcting the content from the drip to the hand of the unconscious Crystal laying on the bed lifeless.Mervin sat alone beside the bed, holding Crystal's hand tightly. At every passing second, he let out a shallow breath.Everything seems like a dream to him, he was finding it hard to process the fact that he had failed Crystal.Guilty crept all over his body like his second skin.A faint sob jolted him back from his dreamland. Mervin raised his head to the bed, meeting Crystal's eyes wide open."Crystal," he whispered.Just as if she had been death stated,tears gashed out of Crystal's eyes like and all season spring.Seeing Crystal l

Chapter: Bitter Pill The morning breeze was refreshing; birds were chirping in the trees as maids and guards were moving back and forth, doing their assigned work. Inside the mansion, a breath-taking aroma was perceived, and anyone whose nose got struck by such an aroma will surely crave to have a test. In the kitchen, Mervin was standing before the cooker with a turning stick in his hand. He had an apron tied in his waist, and some strands of his hair were stuck to his face. He was feeling hot and was sweating. He stilled into the pot gently before walking to one of the cabins. He opened the cabin and took out two bowls. Reaching the cooker, he picked up a serving spoon and dishes out a little portion of the food into one of the bowls. Mervin dropped the serving spoon before picking up a soup spoon and dug into the bowl. "Mmmh," he moaned. A smile of satisfaction appeared on his face. He dropped the bowl into the sink, then turned off the gas. He dished the food into the clean bowl and pr

Chapter: DNA ResultMiranda was seated on the couch in her house when she heard a knock from the door. She did not bother to stand up to attend to the knocker since she knew her maid would do so. And if it's someone whom the guards have permitted to enter the compound, then she needn't worry.Few seconds later, footsteps approached where Miranda sat.A scoff from the visitor made Miranda raise her head. She abruptly sprung up from her seat."You!" She half yelled.Her eyes were wide and round as if she had just seen a serpent. Her chest rose and fell rapidly.."What are you doing here?" She added.The man before her, Bryan shook his head and sighed."I am here to take my daughter," He said softly.Miranda felt as if she had just been shocked by a defibrillator. Her heart stopped beating for a moment.Then, he chuckled , still maintaining her eyes on Bryan.Just what on earth was he blabbering about. It had been nine years since that incident. Since that day Miranda left the hotel room after throwing

Chapter: Mixed EmotionsWith the aid of Mervin, Crystal dragged her jelly legs into the airport. What should have been a walk of a minute to the reception, took Crystal five.In a blink, the receptionist recognised Crystal. Despite her face being of public attention. She saw her earlier bidding farewell to her sisters who boarded the plane to India.Yes,that plane had just crashed about an hour ago.Angella, as the name on her tag, sighed then bowed at Crystal. Of course she knew why Crystal was there."Welcome Ma'am," The receptionist said softly."About the plane crash, did anyone survive?" Crystal's voice was forced. It was as if something was hindering her speech."Am sorry, ma'am, the airport manager is yet to make a statement on that" The edge of Crystal's lip was raised. She scoffed and made a sarcastic laugh. She looked at the receptionist then narrowed her eyes.She was going crazy.She was not here to listen to nonsense. It was her sisters who were involved.The only surviving blood relatives sh

Chapter: Tears after TearsMore than two hours passed. Crystal was shivering yet she refused to leave the riverbank.Police and rescue team arrived a long time ago, but close to two hours passed without even finding Chloe's hair strand.Crystal was becoming impatient. Her eyes were swollen and her whole body was weak. If it were not for Mervin who held her arm in support, her jelly legs could have made her whole body succumb to the ground.The rain had long stopped, but the water level was still high. The wind was still blowing violently. It was even hard for those that had dived in the water to see clearly.."Crystal, we have to go to the police station and give a statement," Mervin said softly.Crystal shook her head negatively. "I am not going anywhere without Chloe," she said firmly.Mervin looked at Crystal's pale face. It was obvious that he will break down with a cold in the coming few days.He let go of crystals hand and walked away leaving her standing by a tree along the river. Few minutes later, he

The once cool breeze became chilly but Chloe and Tranny were sweating.Miranda looked down into the river whose water was now moving violently, with the sky giving space to the dark clouds, it was obvious that rain might come any moment.."What do you want ?" Tranny managed to ask.Miranda glanced at Chloe who was hiding behind Tranny's back and she scoffed." What a beautiful sight" she mumbled."Do your parents know that you're here being all lovey-dovey?
