Rachel's POV

Joyce blinked before giving me a small smile. " Something tells me that you don't know what I think you know".

My brows furrowed in confusion.

" What do you think I know?" I asked leaning closer to her.

" Before I answer that, who did you think visited you?" She asked instead with a look of curiosity.

I brought my hand to my hair, scratching it a little before shrugging. " You might not know them". I said and she immediately scoffed.

"Yup, we are not talking about the same people". She announced snapping her hands.

My confusion deepened. " What do you mean? Fine, you said three, right? A beautiful lady with black long hair, another lady older looking but with also black hair tied to a tight bun on the top of her head, and a..." I paused thinking of how to describe David.

He was handsome, right?

" A handsome young man with a stern face, but smooth facial features. Those three, are they the one?"

It felt weird describing David as handsome after I had met men like Etha

    Rachel's POVI glared at Joyce immediately. Why was she being cold all of a sudden?"What? You're still injured. I can't have you talking to strangers at this time." She stated nonchalantly and I pursed my lips. "David is not a stranger to me, he is my husband."I had no plans of revealing that to her, but I felt she wouldn't leave until I disclosed he was someone close to me. "Husband?!" Her eyes widened as she exclaimed. "I'll tell you about it later, now leave." I shooed, and Joyce stood up from the bed and walked towards the door, but not before easing at David who kept gawking at her back. I noticed his sudden interest in Joyce but I refused to say anything, smiling back up at him. "I'm sorry for what I said; I only said it to make her leave." I apologized as soon as Joyce was gone. David snapped his head towards me before shaking it. "That is exactly what I'm here to talk about."My brows knitted together and my smile turned to a confused one. "It's not like I lied. We are

    Rachel's POVI sighed at the dumb documents while constantly blinking the tears that gathered in my eyes. A voice at the back of my head kept telling me to read the damn thing thoroughly, but I was way too mad to care. What was the worst he could do to me? I was already in jail, and according to the way it seemed, I would be going to court very soon so..." There. It's done ". I noticed a mischievous glint pass through David's eyes as he collected the papers, but I blinked, and it was gone." Good. So we are now officially divorced. " He said with a smile, giving the papers to Jameson, who collected them and placed them inside his briefcase. " Yeah, I am. So you have no reason to be here, leave ". I ordered weakly. I had just divorced David, again. Was that even supposed to be possible?He cheated on me the last time with Lana, but yet because I wanted to be a filial daughter, I went back to him, and now again, he was divorcing me because he thought that I killed Lana. Yet he sa

    Ethan's POV... About half an hour ago. ... I walked into the hospital with the small bag of food I had bought for Rachel. I paused when I got to her door and contemplated. She had been in the hospital for a few days now but I was yet to see her. It was killing me to know that not only that she didn't trust me she also hated and didn't want to see me right now.After much hesitance, I turned away from the door with the food in my hand. I was just going to call Joyce later and give her the food to give Rachel. I was just thinking that when I said the same, Joyce walked out of the doctor's office. "Hey, what are you doing here? Aren't too supposed to be with Rachel at all times?" I asked her, confused about why she was out. I stretched my hand holding the food to her and she collected it with a sigh. " I was, I am. But Rachel has a visitor and wants to talk in ' private.' " She used her free hand to quote the private, and my brow went up. A friend? In private?" Is it Marina? "

    Ethan's POV"You came here to divorce Rachel right?" I asked after a while and David immediately nodded. "Good. So have you divorced her?" I asked again, and this time, it was the lawyer who nodded. David was already sweating from the pain he was feeling on his finger. I squeezed it even more and the mad cried out loud. "Listen to me and listen well. I don't ever want to see around Rachel, ever again. Do you understand?" He didn't answer still consumed by the pain in his finger. My hold tightened, and I heard the bone break, and David screamed out loud. " Do you understand...?" I asked again, gritting my teeth at him, and he nodded fervently. "Yes, I do. I fucking... I do, hell." He cried out in pain. He was sweating from his forehead down to his neck. I smirked in satisfaction. "Good."I threw his finger back to him and the man groaned again. "You..." He looked down at his immovable finger. "You broke my finger." He said almost sobbing. I sneered shaking my head. "The next t

    David's POV" Have you gone crazy? That was Ethan Wright and you disrespected Rachel in front of him!" Jameson thundered as soon as we were out of the hospital. I wasn't fully listening to what Jameson was saying because my entire mind was clouded with anger at Ethan, plus the excruciating pain I was feeling from my finger wasn't helping matters. That bastard Ethan had the guts to break my finger, and that too very easily. Who the hell was he?Yes, he was a billionaire and the CEO of one of the biggest companies in the country, but how the hell was he able to break my finger so easily?" That man must be hiding something". I muttered to myself. " Are you kidding? Seriously David? And you're thinking that now?" Jameson yelled, his eyes almost popping out of his skull. " Yes, I am. " I growled, before shaking my head to get my emotions back in check. I held Jameson's hands frantically and made him look at me." Just take a look at it. Up until six months ago, we had never heard of t

    Marina's POVMy mind began to wander about after sitting in the waiting room for almost an hour. I was still yet to see Rachel and I was getting really bored. I couldn't just get on my phone because Lana's death was the most trending topic on social media right now, and I was afraid that if I even as much as glanced at it, I would get myself riled up. I leaned into my chair shutting my eyes as I breath in and out calmly. Just when I was about falling asleep the sharp sound of something vibrating woke me up. " Just who the hell is that? " I groaned, taking my phone out of my purse to check the ID caller. Fuck, it was director George Stone. Blinking my eyes in surprise, I cleared my throat severally before picking up the call. " Yes sir, "" Marina, you have heard the latest news, right? " The director's deep, stern voice came from the other side of the phone, and I gulped. ' Of course, I've heard. It took you almost four days to even call! '" Yes, I have, sir," I said instead.

    Rachel's POVWhat was Marina doing here?Although Joyce said she came to visit me, I didn't expect her to come in. Not after everything I said to her. The Marina I knew back then could hold a grudge for a long time, though she never did for me, but maybe I had crossed the limit. Who was I kidding? I did cross the limit."What are you doing here?"Marina rolled her eyes. "Can't I come to visit my best friend?" She asked sounding offended. I instantly shook my head. "That's not what I..."She smiled with a slight giggle. " It was acting. I was just messing with you; of course, I know you missed me." Marina said with a proud smile. My lips involuntarily hooked up. Despite everything I did and said to her, she was still here. Then my smile went down and so did my face. "I'm sorry," I muttered in a low voice but loud enough for her to hear. "I know you are," I heard Marina say and flashed my head towards her. "You just got arrested for something you didn't do, and then you find out

I had thought that I wouldn't have to tell anyone about this, but seeing Marina here, acting so... Marinaish... I just couldn't help it. "I want to tell you the truth about what really happened the night Lana was killed," I said with a grim expression, and Marina's eyes almost popped out of her head in shock.

Lana was a bastard, and all she did was to get on my nerves. It was getting sickening and I was getting tired and frustrated about it. "Just you wait and see bitch..." Just as I said that I sighed. Lana's car left the mansion, and I smirked.There was no way I was losing her now. I started my car and followed hers all the way to the...

    Rachel's POVI froze as I stared at the older woman. Ethan? In love with me?" How can you lie so freely?" I asked after a while. Why can't I believe it? Why can't I just tell myself it's the truth and actually believe it?Maybe it was because I had seen what really was real, and I couldn't even allow myself to pretend anymore. "Lie? " Victoria looked shocked as she stood up from the bed. " Why do you think it's a lie huh?" She argued. "Isn't it not? " I retorted before releasing a sigh "Ethan can't be in love with me. He probably doesn't even like me that much ". I felt my heart sink into my stomach as soon as those words left my mouth. Why was I feeling disappointed with my own words? They were the truth. The sooner I began telling myself the truth, the better it would be for both me and... Well me. I'm the only one suffering anyway. Victoria shook her head and looked down at me with pity. " You really are a fool, Rachel, since you can't see what's right in front of you. "

    Rachel's POVI had been avoiding Ethan all morning since we came back from the hospital. What was I to say to him?The man was strange, really strange. If Lana was the love of his life, why was he still acting all nice and sweet and kind to me? Was he bipolar?If it turned out he was, that would explain a lot of things. I threw down the book I was reading with a sigh. Just to reduce the probability of bumping into Ethan, I had cooped myself up in my room since morning, and right now, I was so bored that even reading wasn't helping. Guess getting out of the hospital and jail wasn't too good. At least in the hospital, I had Joyce and, lately, Marina to talk to.The way Lenora just came in and me magically being released... It all remained a mystery to me."For fuck sake Rachel, stop thinking about that now. You're out and that's it."But wasn't there a catch?There had to be a catch, or at least something someone was not telling me. How could I just magically get released from jai

    Lenora's POV I rushed down into into my mansion, where Simon, Owen and Raine where seated in the living room, probably waiting for me. " I've found her, I finally found her ". I nodded my head, a huge smile plastered on my face as I sang." I've actually found her ". " Found who? " " What's going on mum? " Owen and Raine asked at the same time. I just couldn't help myself from grinning as I danced around happily. Today was officially the happiest day of my life. " Len, what's going on? " Simon asked walking up to me as he held my hands. " And why are you crying? " Tears? I blinked, realizing that tears had begun to flow from my eyes again. " This... This are tears of joy Simon, joy ". I answered, enjoying the suspense in the room. " Could you tell us so we can be part of this joy? " Owen remarked sarcastically while standing up from his chair. " Some of us had to take a quick two hours flight down here in a jet just because you mentioned that it was really urgent ".

    Lenora's POVShe raised her head up and pointed at herself "Me?" She said in a high tone before blinking twice to compose herself. "I recently turned twenty six ma'am." Twenty six. I repeated to myself nodding my head. "Did you test if you are my daughter? Is that yours?" I asked, rasing the tube up and she instantly shook her head. "No..." She laughed putting out her hand. "I know my parents. I just went to the lab and found this one there" She explained.I pursed my lips handing the tube over to Joan who took it with both hands. "You do this one, I'm off to check on some of the patients". Joan looked at me in surprise, and I couldn't blame her. The past few years, I had always been the one conducing the test alone and she knew it. But she had been working for me for over ten years, and I knew her very well. She was trust worthy enough, plus there was no guarantee that it could or could not be the right one. I gave her a tight smile before walking back to my office. I had sa

    Lenora POV...Few days ago ..."Today is the day for the test Mrs Nielson." Joan Jett, my friend and the manager of the hospital said as we both walked back to my office. I had insisted that we do a round check on some of the patients in the top floor, something I started to do after the lady, Rachel Andrews was admitted her. I found myself being drawn to her in many ways than one, and was extremely dishearten after I heard she was arrested for a murder crime.It even became worse after I heard from my niece who was her doctor than she was rushed to an hospital after gotten almost beaten to death by a jail warder. She did look like a stubborn lady, but what could she possibly have said to a jail warden for the person to want to kill her with a beating?"... Mrs Nielson". "Huh?" I asked in confusion after I head Joan call my name. " Are you alright ma'am? I've been calling you for the past few minutes". She said looking worried and I nodded.

    Rachel's POVAfter the extremely awkward moment with Lenora, Joyce announced that I could be discharged today. I found the sudden information surprising and that was when she explained that the only reason I was still on the hospital as from two days ago was only because I would be immediately taken back to the station if I was discharged, so she just choose not to discharge me. Ain't that nice?I was all set to go back to Marina's house, when Ethan just grabbed my things and said: "You're coming with me."Judging from the look on both Joyce and Marina's faces, they had thought I was going to argue, and that would probably been the right thing to do. My brain was screaming red alerts. What if he was taking me back with him to avenge Lana's death? She was after all the woman he was in love with, but my heart and body refused listening to my head. I just followed him out like an obedient puppy, and we were now on the way to his car. " Hey, Rachel!" I heard someone yell my name, a

No matter how much I tried not to think of him, or even to just forget about everything he did, I just couldn't, and hearing Joyce talk that he was around wasn't helping either.I mean, why would a guy cheat on you, then after his girlfriend dies (PS, you're being blamed for the murder ), start doing everything he could to get you out of prison?What the hell was that?Was he waiting for Lana to die or something?"Rachel what are you thinking about ". I heard Marina say, and I blinked, looking at her. " What? " I asked still feeling lost. Marina shook her head before looking at Joyce, and then at me. " Are you still thinking about the meeting happening in a few days? " She asked before speaking again. " Nothing is finalized yet. And you can't let that bother you, you literally have bigger issues on

Today was the fifth day after Rachel got arrested, and although I wanted to spend time with her at the hospital, my work back at the office were piling up and were not practically begging for my attention. Plus it was not like I really saw Rachel anyways. I would just seat at the waiting room all day as Joyce gave me updates about her situation. Mark had nagged me for hours to come to the office, and here I was seated there but I still couldn't get anything done. All I could think about was her. "Answer me Mark, did you do it?" I asked again as my best friend sat down on the chair opposite me. "If we want to do this the legal way without pulling any strings, I don't think there is a way to get Rachel out of prison". What? I scoffed in disbelief. I had asked Mark to find a way to get Rachel out of jail for the meantime while I focus on finding the killer and this was the news he was bringing back?
