147. Losing her is worse than dying
In Vento City…
It was eleven o'clock at night, and Ryan Jenkins was in the back seat of a car, talking to Gracie on his phone.
"Sweetheart, don't be mad," he said.
Gracie replied, sounding frustrated, "You never have time for me and our daughter. You're always busy shooting, and just look at the time now. You haven't even made it home yet. Jemma was already asleep when you left in the morning, and she is asleep again before you get back. I'm telling you, she's gonna forget what her father looks like."
Ryan's heart warmed even more when Gracie got angry. He smiled and playfully said, "Well, if she doesn't sleep, how are we gonna have more kids?"
Gracie let out a deep sigh. "You're impossible."
Suddenly, Ryan spotted a familiar black, fancy car parked near a bar.
"Wait a sec," he exclaimed, "Ricky? What's he doing here?"
Gracie asked, concerned, "What's going on, Ryan?"
"Pull over to that bar," Ryan instructed the d

In France…It was a beautiful yet freezing evening. The sun had already set, but its last rays still touched the earth. There stood a tall and handsome man beneath the open sky, right in front of a charming white statue positioned in front of a bungalow's entrance. He had on a long, warm white coat, a white roll-neck jumper, and black pants. He looked stylish and captivating, puffing on a cigarette while smoke rings danced around his head. The man was none other than Yohan Dixon himself.Soon, a white car pulled up in front of the bungalow, and Kevin Johnson stepped out of it. He spotted a familiar figure standing on his property. It didn't surprise him; he knew Yohan had a way of showing up anywhere. Kevin walked over to Yohan, who handed him his cigarette, blowing out smoke rings and gazing straight ahead. Both men exuded their charm, standing side by side, stealing the night's breath and beauty. They stared straight ahead, and Kevin took a deep drag from the

"He headed to Sa's house once he got here," Nolan replied."Damn it! Drive to Sa house. Tell the team to get there ASAP. He's in danger," Yohan ordered.Nolan was initially taken aback by Yohan's urgency, but he quickly started making calls to relay the instructions.Yohan continued to call Kevin repeatedly, but each time, his phone went straight to voicemail. As the car approached the bungalow, Yohan's eyes widened at the sight of black smoke billowing into the sky. The smoke was emanating from Kevin's residence, Sa House."Why's there smoke rising?" Yohan demanded to know.Nolan, while attempting to track Kevin's last known location on his phone, raised his head and was taken aback when he saw the direction they were headed.The car drew nearer, and now flames were visible amidst the smoke. The wailing sirens of fire trucks became audible, and Yohan's heart raced in his chest.Sa House was engulfed in a devastating blaze. Firefighte

"Ricky," Natalie said softly as Yohan sat down beside her, heaving a deep sigh."How is she?" Yohan asked in his hoarse voice."Her fever has subsided for now. She's grieving, trying to conceal her pain," Natalie replied."Where is she?" Yohan inquired."Over there, standing for quite some time," Bruno answered, gesturing in the direction Natalie had indicated.Yohan's throat tightened as he saw the slender figure with a noticeable baby bump standing near the glass wall, her eyes dry and distant as she gazed outside.Yohan hung his head and let out a heavy sigh. Seeing Sara's condition was painful for him, which had kept him away from Dixon Villa for two days. However, his emotions eventually got the better of him, and he couldn't stay away any longer."She might insist on leaving, but make sure to keep her here," Yohan requested."We won't let her go anywhere. She's already endured so much pain. We can't bear to see her suffer a

In a while, Sara Owen arrived at Café Banso to meet Gracie, who was accompanied by her adorable daughter, Jemma. Seeing the child, Sara couldn't help but feel emotional. Every time she saw kids, it reminded her of her late daughter, Rose. As she watched Jemma playing, Gracie gently held her back, preventing her from approaching Sara, preventing her not to hurt Sara."Are you going for checkups or have you made work your everything?" Gracie asked.Sara chuckled, "If I skip checkups, Aunty will get all worked up, and Uncle will lecture me for an hour."Gracie smiled, "I'm glad you decided to live with them. They love you like parents, and it makes me so happy. And just imagine, when you have a child, they'll be over the moon."Sara looked thoughtful, "I can't even fathom the bond that has developed between us."Gracie leaned in, "But what's your plan for the future? You're still young. It can't be all work, Sara."Sara sighed, "Right no

Sara attempted to stand up but found it challenging. Eventually, she had to reach for Yohan's outstretched hand, and he helped her to her feet. He then escorted her to his car and assisted her in getting inside.In the car…Yohan finally broke the silence that had stretched on for a while."Does it hurt?" he asked, his concern evident."I'm used to pain," she replied in a low voice.Yohan paused, considering his next words. "Stop going to work."Sara shook her head. "I'm fine, Yohan. I can manage.He spoke with a touch of urgency, "At least consider working from home. I don't want you to push yourself too hard."Sara smirked and couldn't help but bring up the past. "I'm doing all of this because of you. I could have been happily living with my husband if you..." She trailed off and let out a deep sigh. Yohan was taken aback, the weight of her words hitting him. He wondered if she was referring to him. If only he hadn't d

On the top floor of Dixon Hospital, in the VIP ward, Natalie and Bruno sat anxiously outside the emergency room. When Yohan nearly rushed to them, he stopped in his tracks, alarmed by their fear and panic. He peered at the room. Upon spotting him, the elders stood up from the couch."Ricky..." Natalie approached him, her voice quivering."What's wrong? Where is she? Is she alright?" He was visibly agitated."She's been in excruciating pain for over three hours. The child hasn't descended yet. The doctors are helpless. I'm terrified," Natalie explained, her eyes filled with worry.Yohan's throat went dry, and he quickly entered the emergency room. Sara was writhing in agony on the bed, her face red and sweaty from the pain. Two nurses and a doctor were working to ease her suffering."What on earth are you doing? Why aren't you treating her?" Yohan shouted angrily at the doctor."Sir, we can't take any risks. Given her previous history, a forc

Natalie and Bruno smiled brightly, and Bruno tightly shook the doctor's hand."Thank you so much for saving both of them. You can't imagine what you have given me," his voice trembled with emotion.Natalie wiped her tears."It's a miracle. The child seems lucky for his mother," the doctor said in a gentle voice, further lifting the elders' spirits."It's a boy!" Natalie jumped happily."Yes. Miss Owen is still unconscious, but she will regain consciousness soon. Both the child and mother are out of danger. We are transferring them to the private room shortly.""Thank you, Doctor," Bruno said.The doctor left, and Natalie and Bruno exchanged glances."Did you hear, Bruno? We have a grandson. Our grandson."Bruno held Natalie in his arms and patted her back to console her."Calm down, Natalie. You should not cry on such a precious moment."Natalie wiped her tears and looked at her husband, whose eyes were als

"I don't know," Yohan muttered."Uncle didn't give you a call?" Ryan asked, pouring himself a glass of wine.Yohan remained silentRyan could tell that Yohan was hesitant to go there because of the newborn child. He was aware that Yohan hadn't visited Dixon Villa or seen Sara Owen since the child was born.He sighed, "It's not the child's fault."Yohan nodded, "I can't bring myself to face her, thinking Sara will never forgive me.""Your only way out is to let her go," Ryan advised.Yohan knew that letting go of Sara was even harder for him than facing death.…The party at Dixon Villa was big and fancy.
