Rachel's POV

His pout disappeared, and his lips pulled up in a bright smile. I blinked in surprise. This kid was indeed an actor.

Why did I even fall for it again? He did the same thing at the welcoming party when he said he was looking for his mum.

Darn. I shook my head as I followed him out of the room and down to the back of the place we were shooting. It was an outdoor garden with just a few plants, nothing even close to Ethan's beautiful paradise, but still had refreshing air.

" Now what do you want to talk to me about? And make it fast". I asked taking a seat on the only bench in the middle of the place.

Jake walked up to me and crossed his little hands standing in front of me. " Do you like my uncle? " He suddenly asked and I let out a surprised cough.

Was he talking about Ethan?

" Why...why would you ask that? " I asked still recovering from my cough.

" My mum told me that you are my uncle's girlfriend, and I just want to be clear:r do you like him or not?"

I blinked sur

    Rachel's POVHe noticed? I turned to face him. "You know it was her?" I asked in surprise. He nodded rolling his eyes. "It was obvious. Thank goodness I wasn't in any of the scenes that required you guys to travel all the way to Florida in a helicopter in the MIDDLE IN THE NIGHT". He air-coated the middle of the night, emphasizing that. An amused smile appeared on my lips. "How do you know it was her? ""I overheard her telling my mother about you having a fear of flights and heights and how she plans to punish you for something; again, I ask, is this all because of my uncle? " He asked with his hands and I shrugged. "I don't know either. That bitch... Mind my language has been all over me since after the Charity ball, something you're not old enough for me to be telling you about..." I trailed off giving him a small smile. For a second there, I had forgotten that Jake was a kid, not just anyone's kid, the best friend of one of my top enemies right now, kid. He was such a good

    Rachel's POVSlowly, I felt my feet giving away, and I fell on the floor with a sharp thud. That... That was real blood. " Wow... You, this bitch of a friend, could take a bullet for you; now it's your turn ". Lana, well Joyce continued ignoring my real bullet wound! The director must probably think it was fake blood since I had some on me and it was meant to spill at this particular moment. But Lana had missed the small bag of fake blood hidden in my clothes and actually shot me, for real! I wanted to shout that I was hurt but then I remembered what Jake had said to me yesterday. No matter what happens, the show must go on.It was as if he knew something was going to go wrong, and a part of me did too, but I didn't expect to actually have a hole in me right now. The sound of the police sirens brought me out of my thoughts. Fine, the show must go on. "Ahhh..." I yelled leaning my head back in pain. "Darn this..." Joyce yelled darting her eyes around as the sound of the police

    Ethan's POV" What the hell did you just say?" I shouted at Mark who was hugging his phone close to him. "Ethan, calmed down". He said, his voice shaking, and I scoffed. Calm down, calm down?How did he expect me to calm down?He just told me that Marina just called him to tell me that Rachel is in a God damn hospital! " Which hospital?" I asked picking up my keys from my desk. "Ethan, we can't travel all the way back there because...""Because of what? Rachel is at the hospital for god knows what, and you said I can't go there. Why?" I yelled walking closer to him. Mark sighed freeing his hands. " You just got announced a few weeks ago as the CEO of E & R Enterprises; you have a lot of work and ..." I sent him a sharp glare, and he clasped his mouth shut." We're leaving now, get the private jet ready. " I ordered, and Mark nodded, turning around and walking out of the office. "Wait..." I called and paused, turning around. " Find out more about the cause of her accident from Mar

    Ethan's POVLana's eyes widened in surprise when I asked that. She really was not expecting that. But seriously what was she expecting? That I would run to hug or something?She should be glad that we were not in a secluded area if not I would have murdered her myself right now. "It's... It's me." She said incoherently pointing at herself. Marina snorted, and winked at me seeming to understand what I was playing at. Yeah, don't you know her? She's the one that just tried to kill your girlfriend."My stare turned to a glare and I followed along with what Marina was doing. "She did what? So she's the lady who shot my girlfriend with a 'prop'' gun and the reason she's in coma right now." I said emphasizing the prop. No seriously did she think we were children? How could she lie that she didn't know the gun was real?"No... That's not, that's not me". Lana denied taking a few step back " I said I didn't know the gun was real, if anyone is at fault it's the set managers." She shouted.

    Rachel's POV" Ouch ..." I groaned opening my eyes and quickly shutting it back again because of the light. "Why is it so damn bright?" I complained opening my eyes again but this time alot more slowly. I was in a bright white room, at least the ceiling and the floors were white. There were three couches a mini fridge and a... Television set?Where was I?I stood up groaning as my back hit the bed rest. I was on a queen sized bed, kind of like the one I had back in Ethan's house. The room was well furnished with a desk and a chair by the side of the bed a wardrobe by the far corner and a door which I guess would lead to the bathroom. No seriously, where was I?Last thing I remembered I was on set, and the director shouted cut and... Then Jake came back and told everyone that I was shot, and that was it. From there everything else was a blur, I went unconscious.Did I die? Was this heaven? I looked around the room again unsure. Even if I did die, heaven was a far stretch for me. I

    Rachel's POV" I really thought I lost you". Ethan said seriously looking straight into my eyes which made my heart skip a beat. Did he really miss me that much?When Marina said it, it felt like it was normal, she ought to say that she was my best friend, but hearing it from Ethan felt different. " Ahem..." I coughed trying to dismiss the awkwardness in the room while taking my eyes of Ethan. " How can you lose it, it was just a little bullet". " A little bullet?" He snickered. " That little bullet could have killed you, and why the hell didn't you say anything immediately you got shot?" He asked his voice getting higher. Was he mad?Why was he mad? He wasn't the person that got shot. If anyone had a right to be angry, that person was me. " And risk shooting the entire scene over again after I'm better? Hell no, it was best to do it once and for all, the show must go on"" And risk you dying? I rather the entire film be halted". He said and my eyes widened in shock. He can do

    Rachel's POVI don't know why, but my heart always skipped whenever Ethan called me his girlfriend and it did the same when he said it to the middle aged looking lady he called Mrs Nielson. From how friendly his tone was towards her, I could tell they knew each other. "Nice to meet you Mrs Nielson". I said bringing my hand forward for a shake. The woman smiled shaking my hand. " No need for the formalities, you can call me Lorena". Then she walked towards me slowly dragging me away from Ethan's side and back to the bed. " You shouldn't be up by now, don't you want your wound to heal? " She asked slowly sitting me down on the bed. " I'm back! " Marina suddenly barged in with a takeout bag in her hand and a huge smile on her face. Ethan immediately sent a glare at Mark who was standing beside her and he raised his hands in surrender. " I tried to stop her but she insisted". He said and I giggled softly placing my hands over my mouth to hide my laughter when Ethan directed his glare a

    Lana's POVI glared at the two huge muscular men wearing tight suits with earpiece sticking out of their ears standing just right beside Rachel's hospital room.They were freaking bodyguards! Just a little gun wound and now there were bodyguard in front of a fucking door, and the worst part was these bastards had refused to let me in!!! " Do you know who I am?" I threatened swinging my arms in the air. I have been standing here for almost ten minutes now but they were acting like I was invisible, and any time I tried to even move a feet closer to the door, both of them hold put their hand to me and push me away. If it wasn't fot the fact that I could slightly see their chest moving up and down, I would have thought they were robots. I came all the way from London, England just because I wanted to see how she was doing after I shot her. I freaking shot her.I let out a sigh remembering how I switched the prop gun with a real one few minutes before the scene. She was supposed to be

    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

    Rachel's POVI hugged myself with my hands sighing for the fifteenth time in the last hour. Marina and Joyce were in the room with me yet I still felt lonely. I missed Ethan, so much. 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

    Ethan's POV " Is it done yet?" I asked Mark as he walked into my office. 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?

    Rachel's POV"And what's that?" Marina asked looking confused. I took in a deep breath shutting my eyes. 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. "What the fuck?"...THE NIGHT LANA WAS KILLEDRachel's POV "That fucking crazy bitch!" I cursed constantly hitting the steering wheel of my car. 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 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

    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.

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.
