Because you loved me Chapter 52.
Krystie’s heels clicked against the tiled floor as she stepped out of Dr. Lawrence’s office, her mind still racing. Something about his response had unsettled her, his hesitation and the way he had dismissed her concerns without even checking the hospital records. He knew something. And she needed to find out what. As she turned the corner toward the main hallway, a low murmur caught her attention."Everything secured?" a hushed voice asked. Krystie slowed her steps, instinctively keeping close to the wall as she approached the nearby storage room. The door was slightly ajar, and she could see two figures standing in the dim light, their backs turned to her."Yes sir," another voice responded, lower and more cautious. "The records have been handled. Nothing will trace back to us." Krystie’s breath caught in her throat. The records? The first voice, sharper this time, spoke again. "Are you sure? If anyone notices..." "We’ve already taken care of it," the second voice cut in. "An

Krystie watched Dr. Lawrence disappear down the hallway, her heart still pounding frantically from his cryptic words. We wouldn’t want any more misunderstandings. The way he said it sent a chill through her. Was that a warning? Or a threat? She glanced at her phone, hoping for a response from Lucian. Nothing yet. Taking a steadying breath, she turned on her heel and walked toward the hospital’s break room. She needed a moment to think. As soon as she stepped inside and shut the door behind her, she leaned against the counter, pressing her fingers to her temples. Her mind raced through possibilities. Could it be organ trafficking? She shook her head. No, no, think logically. Regal Hospital wasn’t some shady underground facility. It was one of the most reputable in the city owned by her godfather. Thinking of her godfather sent a chill down her spine, his behaviour wasn't any better than that of Dr. Lawrence. Were they hiding something? With a frustrated sigh, she turned

Krystie barely slept at night. She turned and tossed the whole night. Every time she closed her eyes, her mind replayed Dr. Lawrence’s cryptic warning. Lucian lay by her side, patting her back to sleep. It was at the wee hours of the morning when Krystie finally drifted off.By morning, when she woke, she had large eye bags under her eyes. Nevertheless, she had to go to work, everything had started to intrigue her more. After finishing her morning rounds, she made her way back to the IT department. Nancy was waiting for her, eyes darting nervously around the room like she was afraid of something. "Boss," she whispered, closing the door behind them. "I have found something, but we have a problem." Krystie’s stomach tightened. "What kind of problem? Did someone track you down?" "No. That's not it. Here." Nancy turned her computer screen toward her. A grainy video clip played. The hospital footage from the previous night. The hallway outside the operating rooms was dimly lit, but

Krystie sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the flash drive Lucian had given her back after going through it. "I've gone through it," Lucian said as he leaned against the dresser, arms crossed. “Most of these patients were admitted for minor treatments but they all ended up in unauthorized surgeries.” Krystie scrolled through the files on her laptop, her brows furrowing. “And all of them were discharged quickly afterwards. No follow-ups and their records were erased from the system. It’s like they were never even here." Lucian nodded. “Exactly. A cold shiver ran down Krystie’s spine. Suddenly, her phone buzzed. She checked the screen. A text from Nancy. Nancy: Boss, someone tried to access my system remotely. I managed to block them, but they were close. Krystie’s pulse quickened. If someone was trying to hack into Nancy’s system, it meant they suspected something. Krystie: Shut everything down for now. Stay low." She put her phone down and met Lucian’s gaze. "S

Chloe adjusted the strap of her purse as she stepped up to the main villa door. The building was high class from its appearance. It was freezing cold from the rain drizzle. She knocked twice. A moment later, the door creaked open, revealing Mark. He looked pale, with dark circles under his eyes, his usual sharpness dulled by exhaustion. "You look terrible," Chloe said bluntly. Mark smirked, leaning against the doorframe. "Nice to see you too." She rolled her eyes and stepped inside. The villa was small but neat. A stack of unopened medication sat on the coffee table. Clearly, he hadn't taken any. "You didn’t tell me it was this bad. Krystie said it's just a fever," she said, crossing her arms. "It’s not." He moved toward the couch but winced as he lowered himself onto it. Chloe sighed, grabbing a chair and sitting across from him. "I came here because you clearly need someone to force you to take medication."Mark chuckled weakly. "And here I thought you just missed me."

Xavier sat alone at the edge of the bed in his bedroom. In his hand, he held the silver chain he had picked from Mark's house. His fingers traced the familiar grooves of the pendant, and for the first time in years, he allowed himself to remember. The orphanage had been a cruel place. At ten years old, Xavier had been weak. Not just physically, but in every way that mattered. The other boys took pleasure in stealing his food, pushing him into the dirt, and bullying him in all the cruel ways possible. He had learned that survival in such a place was for the strong. And Erick Jackson had been strong. He wasn’t just tough, he had a confidence that commanded either respect or fear. He was loved by the orphanage director, and he was appointed the leader of all the orphans, a title that Xavier had eyes on for years. When Xavier had been beaten to the ground too many times, it was Erick who had stepped in. Not because they were friends but out of pity for watching the weakling tra

Krystie adjusted her lab coat, her mind was elsewhere. She had received several leads from Agent D concerning the big boss, but only his identity remained. But as she stepped outside, her stride faltered. Alex. Leaning against his sleek, black sports car parked by the hospital’s main gate. Alex’s confident smirk was the same as it had always been. Dressed in a tailored jacket that hugged his broad shoulders, sunglasses perched lazily atop his head, his confident smirk carved into that arrogant face she once thought she loved. His posture screamed arrogance as if the world owed him something. Krystie’s jaw clenched. What the hell is he doing here? She considered walking past him, pretending he didn’t exist. But he pushed out of the car and intercepted her, blocking her path."Krystie," Alex’s voice was smooth, laced with the same cocky confidence that used to make her heart race. "We need to talk." "I don’t think we do," she shit back coldly, trying to sidestep him."Come o

Alex slammed the door to his apartment. His jaw throbbed from Lucian's punch. The metallic taste of blood lingered in his mouth, but it was nothing compared to the bitterness that clawed at his heart. He stumbled into the dimly lit living room, dragging his fingers through his tousled hair, his mind spiralling with rage and humiliation. Krystie’s icy words replayed in his mind, each syllable cutting deeper than the last. "How did I even fall in love with a douchebag like you?" He cursed under his breath, grabbing a half-empty bottle of whiskey from the counter and taking a long, burning swig. But it didn’t dull the ache or erase the image of Krystie running into Lucian’s arms, her voice dripping with affection that used to be his. He was still sipping the whiskey when he heard a faint creak from the bedroom. Slamming the bottle down, he stormed toward the noise, hoping against hope that it was not who he thought it was. And there she was. Cassandra. Lounging on his bed like

Mr King stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows of his private office, his sharp gaze fixed on the city skyline. His brother still lay in the hospital bed, barely alive. The doctors had told him the chances of him waking up were only five per cent, or he might end up in a vegetable state because of the damage to the brain. The thought that the man who had done all this to his brother was walking around freely irked him to the core, and tonight he was going to make him pay, even if it meant shedding his own blood. Leo entered the room snapping him from his thoughts. "The men are ready, boss. We have got eyes on the big boss’s main warehouse near the port. Word is, a shipment is coming in tonight with illegal firearms." Mr. King turned with a playful smirk at the corner of his mouth. "Good. Tell them to move immediately. No mistakes." Leo nodded and stepped away hurriedly to relay the command. Mr King reached for the drawer where the folder Joel had sent him several weeks ago la

Mr. King sat in his luxurious office, his mind elsewhere. His fingers tapped impatiently against the polished surface of his desk while his other hand gripped his phone tightly. It was already three days. Three damn days without a single word from his brother. His younger brother had never gone this long without answering his calls or at least checking in. He had a bad premonition about it! Mr King exhaled sharply, rubbing his temple. His sources inside the big boss’s operations had gone quiet too, which only deepened his unease. Something was wrong. His phone buzzed, jolting him from his thoughts. It was an unknown number. Frowning, he hesitated before answering. "Who is this?" His voice was sharp and demanding. Silence. Then a distorted voice, as if through a voice changer. "Your brother is in critical condition at St. Lucy's Hospital." A cold chill ran through Mr King's spine. His grip tightened on the phone. "What the hell are you talking about? Who are you?" "Wh

The meeting room inside the warehouse was dimly lit with only a single overhead light. Across the wooden table, the men seated around with tension on their faces. The big boss sat at the head of the table, his gloved fingers tapping rhythmically against the wooden table. His dark mask hid his expression, but the sharp glint in his eyes was enough to send chills through the men seated before him. His patience had run out. Ben stood beside him silently, watching as the others shifted uncomfortably in their seats. Every man in the room knew that meetings like these never ended well. Someone wasn’t going to walk out of this room alive. The big boss finally spoke, his voice calm. "We have a big problem!" He leaned back in his chair. "You see, everything has been going to hell lately. Our plan was interfered with, the dock was wiped clean, our men tortured, and Dr Lawrence returned to us in a state that not even the devil himself would wish upon his worst enemy. He let the words s
Because you loved me Chapter 67.
The big boss stood at the corner of the warehouse looking out of the window. His dark mask covered his face as always. Things had started going wrong! The warehouse was silent except for the chirping of the birds outside. Ben, his right-hand man, stood beside him, tense. He was afraid the boss might lash out at him. "Boss, I think it's kind of strange, everything is so wrong right now. We still haven’t found Dr. Lawrence. It’s like he disappeared off the face of the earth. At the dock, everything was wiped out clean. I think we have a mole in our group." The big boss exhaled sharply, rubbing his temples. "Lawrence, that bastard ruined everything. And now he’s hiding?" His voice was deadly calm, but everyone in the room knew what that meant, someone was going to die tonight. "About a mole, I have noticed that too. Don't worry about it. I'll handle everything in today's meeting. Make sure that boy also attends, I want to deal with him tonight." The big boss took a seat at the table.

The sirens grew louder as the cars made their way to Dock 47. The stench of gunpowder, blood and bodies scattered like discarded chess pieces in the area. Two black SUVs with tinted windows screeched to a halt. Armed men dressed in black tactical gear spilt out. Their faces were masked, they had been tracking the van since it left the hospital. They were Krystie's people, not the police. The GPS trackers hidden inside the cartons had led them here. The sirens were only to scare everyone away. "Secure the area and clean everything!" barked the team leader, a man with a sharp jawline and piercing grey eyes that missed nothing. Inside the cartons, the doctors and nurses had begun to stir, groggy from the sedatives. Panic flashed across their faces as the realization set in, everything foggy in their minds. One of the men yanked the tape off a doctor’s mouth. The doctor gasped, coughing violently as he tried to speak. "Please help us," he croaked, his voice raw from dehydration.

Dr Lawrence’s eyes fluttered open. A sharp, metallic scent filled the air, the cold dampness of the room made him shiver. His head throbbed with pain, a dull ache from the back where he had been struck. He tried to move, but his arms were bound tightly behind a metal chair, his legs shackled to the floor. The faint sound of waves crashing hinted that they were near the coast. Perhaps Italy, from the faint accent in the whispered words exchanged around him. As his vision cleared, he took in his surroundings. He was in a vast, abandoned warehouse somewhere unfamiliar. His heart raced with panic when he noticed the men surrounding him. They weren’t the big boss’s men. They were fierce, sharp-eyed men dressed in black, their postures rigid with discipline. Some had scars and others bore tattoos with symbols he couldn’t recognize, but all of them radiated the same silent threat. Their faces were cold, emotionless, and deadly. "Where am I?" Dr Lawrence asked drawing the attention o

The hospital corridors were very silent. Krystie, Lucian, and his team of trusted allies walked through, dressed in scrubs and surgical masks. "Let me check on Chloe first," Krystie whispered to Lucian as she peeled away from the group. She reached the door and paused, her heart pounding in her chest. "Inject her now. She's the next one for the procedure," a cold voice ordered from inside. Krystie’s eyes flashed with fury. Without hesitation, she kicked the door open. Two masked nurses turned in shock, one holding a syringe filled with a clear liquid. Chloe lay on the bed helplessly, her face pale from fear of what would happen if Krystie didn't make it on time. Krystie grabbed the nurse with the syringe, twisting his wrist until the needle clattered to the floor. With a swift punch to his jaw, he crumpled. The second nurse lunged at her, but she was faster, driving her elbow into his throat before sweeping his legs out from under him. He hit the floor with a thud. Krystie to

Krystie, Chloe, and Lucian sat in the living, each one deep in their thoughts. Krystie’s phone buzzed, breaking through the silence. She picked it up, her eyes narrowing as she read the message: Boss, there is another unauthorized surgery scheduled soon. Details are vague, but it’s happening within the next few days. Nancy. Krystie’s jaw tightened. She stood abruptly pacing around the room. They are not going to stop any soon, there's another scheduled surgery happening soon, she muttered, her voice low Lucian’s eyes darkened, but Chloe spoke first. "Then we need to stop them. We can’t sit here while people out there need our help. That's what Papa taught us. Krystie shook her head in frustration. "Exactly. But I don't know how to help them. I can’t go back into the hospital without drawing attention. I’m still under investigation. I was suspended, remember." A deafening silence followed until Chloe broke it. "Then that's the point where my plan comes into the picture. I t

The blood-stained envelope lay on the table, its edges crumpled. Krystie stared at it with a pounding heart. Chloe and Lucian sat across from her, anticipation evident on their faces. The silence between them was almost deafening. Krystie’s heart raced as she finally tore it open. The contents spilt out across the table, a stack of photographs faded with time, and a small note written in Cassandra's handwriting. Krystie reached for them with trembling fingers, afraid of what she might see. Chloe’s gasped, her fingers flying to her mouth. "Oh my God…" she whispered, her eyes darting from photo to photo. The first photo showed a strikingly handsome young man with piercing dark eyes and a charismatic smile. He was laughing, caught mid-motion, his arm around someone just out of frame. Krystie’s breath hitched. She recognized him from the countless times Lucian had mentioned him. Damien! Lucian’s elder brother. The same brother who had been murdered the day Krystie’s parents died
