"He might have been rescued or kidnapped." Tyler announced and a rush of fear washed over Cade.

"K-kidnapped?" He stuttered.

"Yeah! After all, he is a rich dude and a popular figure." Tyler replied.

"Tyler, calm down please." Jason begged.

"Should I calm down? Do you know how worried Jessica would be right now? Especially when she thinks you are wondering about all by yourself in this unsafe neighborhood." Tyler complained as he pulled out his phone, switched it on, and dialed Jessica's number.

His phone was dead all through the night but he charged it in the hotel they lodged.

"Now her number is not going through!" He exclaimed before dialing Leah's.

"How are you doing dear?" He asked as soon as Leah answered the call.

"I'm good. Why were all your numbers not going through? Jessica tried to call you all but none could get through except Daniel's and she couldn't even hear him well." Leah complained.

"My phone was switched off and the network here is terrible. Where is she now?

    Jessica woke up to find herself on a medium sized bed in a neat, 7 by 7 guest bedroom. As scared as she was, she managed to stand up on her feet and walked out of the room, hoping to find out where she was but she was surprised to see a passageway that led to a beautiful rustic style living room and then she realized she was actually in an apartment, but whose? She couldn't tell.As she walked into the living room, she saw a young man in a black and white suit walking out of another room with some files in his hand."Hey, you're finally awake." The blonde haired guy exclaimed as he smiled at Jessica but this only terrified her and she immediately had a flashback of the last time she was consciously crying beside Cruz's crashed car. She immediately remembered that this was the unknown man who had called her name earlier and then she assumed she was doomed. 'This man must be among those men who mocked me yesterday. Oh no! He must think I'm a sex worker after seeing those pictures on W

    "His head is bleeding. I think his head injury has reopened." Jessica panicked as she covered Cruz's bleeding head with her palm. "The doctor advised he shouldn't move about or be worried but he just wouldn't listen especially after he saw your condition last night." Dave complained worriedly as he brought out his phone and dialed the doctor's number. "Please get here as soon as possible! Cruz's wound reopened." He reported and afterwards, ended the call. "Don't you think we should take him to a hospital? Even if the doctor is good, there is some equipment that just can't be moved about." Jessica complained. "What do you think this place is? Here is no less than a hospital, the only delay here is because the only Doctor in the house is sick." Dave explained to Jessica's surprise. Jessica didn't really understand what she meant because she could barely see any medical apparatus here. "Where is the equipment? Get me some gauze. A lot of it." She ordered but Dave looked around,

    "Dr. Westham didn't put me up for anything, in fact he will he be very mad at me for telling you the truth." Dave defended his boss. "And what do you say it's the truth?" Cade asked, still not ready to believe him. "Dr. Westham didn't upload those demeaning pictures of Ms Vegas. It did clear your pictures from the internet but it was purely coincidental. I thought if everyone misunderstood him, you shouldn't. That's why I'm telling you this." Dave explained and attempted to leave the room but Cade, who still can't believe him stopped him. "Seriously? Are you also going to lie to my face? Even when I overheard his conversation with you, a night before the pictures went viral? I was also the first to read your text to him the next morning and when I logged in to brother's WeCom, I was shocked and disappointed beyond words by what I saw. I know you're loyal to him but don't try to mend our relationship with a lie." Cade warned as he walked towards the big window on the left side of h

    "No Cade. You can't take care of him by yourself. It's not proper and…""So? Are you going to take care of him?" Tyler interrupted angrily. After her relationship with Cruz crashed, Tyler didn't want her to have anything to do with him again. "Tyler, please calm down. I'm not planning to. Leah has been by herself since yesterday and I can't leave her alone any longer but we can't ask Cade to look after his brother. Maybe one of you should stay." Jessica suggested. "I already told you I'm not some kid that needs to be taken care of. I am absolutely fine and I'm not planning on accommodating anyone else in my house. I've been here for two weeks and nothing and as you can see, I am recovering well." Cruz declared even though he knew his last statement was a lie.Jason and Daniel knew their last hope was Jessica but they also know that even if Jessica agrees, Tyler won't agree with them."Tyler, can we talk privately?"

    "To babysit you! Remember the first time I had to babysit Cade, now is your turn." Jessica replied, purposely provoking Cruz. "B-baby-sit? What? Do you think I'm some baby or what? I already said you could leave. Why are you here and why are you…?" Cruz paused as he joined his legs tightly together, trying to hold back the wee in his manhood as it was becoming harder for him to keep to himself. Jessica noticed this and tried to help him untie the rope on his joggers but as Jessica stretched her hands towards him, he tried to dodge her by jumping backward but he slipped and almost fell to the ground if not for Jessica who quickly came to his aid and supported him to his feet but this only made Cruz more embarrassed and angered. "You are not a kid but your friends couldn't leave in peace until I agreed to stay back. I know accepting my help will only hurt your ego but you will have to accept it to prevent so many people from worrying about you." Jessica explained but Cruz couldn't pa

    "What?" Cruz bawled as he looked down his brief and noticed the area where the tip of his prick rested was a little wet. "Fuck!" He screeched as he ran into the toilet and Cade couldn't help joining Jessica in laughing. Cruz was so embarrassed that he refused to come out of the toilet long after he'd taken a leak and also changed his brief so Jessica decided to leave and prepare dinner since it was already very late. They had breakfast quite late today and couldn't have lunch before it was time for dinner. Cade also decided to help her in the kitchen and take the opportunity to ask her why she returned. "You didn't have to come back. I've gotten to know you more now that I can tell when you're really happy or just faking it." Cade revealed and even Jessica knew he was right and she was not about to deny it. "You're right to say I'm just faking my smiles because that's exactly what I'm doing. Acting like nothing happened is the only way I can live here." Jessica confessed. "You d

    "You don't have to explain yourself. You can leave. I will ask Dave to drop you." Cruz announced as soon as Jessica walked into his room early the next morning. Jessica sighed and dropped her gaze. "Do you now eavesdrop on my conversations?" She asked with clenched jaw and fist. "I wasn't eavesdropping. I just happened to be around that area by that time." He defended himself. "Well, get used to seeing me because I'm not leaving just yet but if you're in a hurry to see me leave…you can do us both a favor by getting better soon." She suggested but Cruz just hissed and tossed to the other side of the bed, turning his back on her. "Why are you here then?" He asked. "Isn't it obvious? To serve your breakfast and make sure you take your drugs!" Jessica repliedv, dropping the tray of food on the drawer beside Cruz's bed. Cruz was too focused on distancing himself away from her that he didn't notice she had the tray earlier. Jessica remained standing a few minutes after dropping

    Jessica sighed and shut her eyes briefly as she contemplated whether or not to resolve this misunderstanding but Cruz grabbed her hand and pulled her to the door, flinging her out to the passageway and making her slightly dizzy. "Cruz, what are you…" "Who exactly do you think you are to tell what to do and what not to do in my house? Just because I'm on bandages doesn't mean I'm worthless and helpless, you know. I thought I'd be able to tolerate you living here with me but your attitude is just too much for me to handle. Why do you always have to act like a saint? After all I did to you, how could you even agree to stay back if you don't have any ulterior motives? Of course, I know exactly why you agreed to stay here. You just want to make me feel bad for what I've done and emotionally torture me but I refuse to let that happen!" Cruz bellowed furiously as he paused to quickly wipe out the tears in his eyes before they became obvious. Cruz merged his palm despite the pain it is cau

    "Damn!” Dave exclaimed in awe. “Cruz can definitely hear us.” Dr. Kang affirmed. “Now back to why he is refusing to let us take her…”“Cruz, if you want us to treat Jessica, move your finger twice, if not move it three times.” He suggested and once again, Cruz answered by moving his fingers just twice. “And do you want us to take her? If yes, move your finger twice, otherwise, thrice.” Dr. Kang suggested again and this time, he moved his finger three times.“He wants her to be treated but he doesn’t want us to take her.” Dr. Kang explained. “That means he wants her to be treated here!” Klaus interpreted. “Perfect. Call her doctor! He should treat her here. It would only make Cruz’s condition improve.” Dr. Kang suggested. “And please, no one else must hear of this!” He warned again and the men agreed with her before Dave went to get her doctor. By the next morning, Jessica’s temperature was finally down but she was still in Cruz’s arms. The family was happy she was finally getting

    "C-coma?" She stuttered as a lone tear trickled down her cheeks. Dave who was standing behind her slowly massaged her shoulder in an attempt to keep her calm. "How long is he going to be in that condition?" Klaus, who was sitting beside her, asked curiously. "No one can say. Cruz might never wake up." Dr. Kang added. Jessica felt her heart thumping wildly inside her chest. Even though she was prepared for any news, she never expected it to be this bad. As long as the life monitor was on Cruz could be alive but the moment it is turned off, that would be the end of his life. Fortunately, Cruz and his family were rich enough to pay for as long as it would take for him to recover. Everyone was shocked by the news. Every news channel was now carrying the news of Cruz’s misfortune. Fortunately, Cruz was well-loved and he received a lot of good wishes from the masses.THREE MONTHS LATERKlaus's wedding turned out a lot smaller than planned because Cruz's condition had changed everyone

    Cade was the first to run into the room upon hearing her shriek. Fortunately, her voice pierced the soundproofed rooms thanks to the fact that Cruz has succeeded in opening the door ajar. Upon seeing Cruz's condition, Cade quickly got the attention of Dave and Klaus. ******Cruz was admitted to the emergency ward of his hospital with Dr. Kang and his assigned doctors working on him. Cade had called Dr. Kang as soon as the attack happened. Fortunately, Dr. Kang who had already predicted this was going to happen came to Los Angeles the same day Cruz had come which was why he directed them to Cruz's hospital and was able to meet up with them in time. Outside the ward was the whole family panicking while Cruz's parents pestered Dave to tell them what was going on. "Why did you have an oxygen mask with you as if you knew he was gasping for air? What is wrong with my son? Why is he in that shape?" Cruz's mom pestered Dave and Klaus, hoping any of them would spill the truth. But none o

  • Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher   Last Attack

    Jessica refused to get into the car when she was supposed to leave for her house and aside from being genuinely worried, everyone wanted to know why she was refusing to leave. "Before I leave, I want to be certain that she is nowhere near the house, or better still, I will lodge at a hotel." She finally stated her reason. "Jessica, you won't. I promise." Klaus tried to persuade her. "It doesn't matter. I don't want to live under the same roof as her." Jessica retorted. "Sister-in-law, Valeria can't leave because she was placed on house arrest. She can't even step out of the guesthouse. We can't let her off so easily after putting your life in such jeopardy." Cade added, trying to persuade Jessica to go home. "Did they persuade you to think that House Arrest will suffice? What could they possibly do to her since she is carrying their beloved boss and friends' safest child? I could lose my child anytime because of her but she's Cruz's second chance so they won't risk discomfortin

    Back in South Korea, Cruz had suffered another attack after the call and the doctors went through several hours of stress to stabilize him. It was only later the next day that Cruz finally regained his consciousness. By that time, Dave, who had left for South Korea the previous night, was already there with him. Dr. Kang was so pissed with them that he refused to speak with them. It took hours of convincing to finally get Dr. Kang to join them for a conversation but he had a patient to attend to and he agreed to join them once he was done. During that time, Cruz decided to question Dave about the circumstances back at home. "How is Jessica doing?" Cruz asked worriedly as he sat up on his bed, looking a lot thinner than he used to. "Klaus is taking care of things. Dr. Kang is mad because of your recent attack. Can you please try not to involve yourself in the family affairs for now? I promise we will take care of things." Dave pleaded. "How can I when I have completely ruined my

    By the time Dave was done with his call, he turned to meet Cade's confused gaze. "Whatever happens in the future, don't look for anyone to put the blame on." Dave warned before walking out on him, heading out of the hospital. Cade was confused about Dave's warning. All he knew was that his brother was a coward who couldn't stay with his wife when he needed her the most. He returned to the room where Jessica's mom was now sitting up, weeping. "I really didn't want to regret joining your family but now I do." She spoke out her mind while staring into Mrs. Westham's eyes. "Jessica really wanted to keep this baby. Now that this happened, she will never be the same again." She continued as she removed the IV connected to her hand and stood up to her feet. "We shouldn't all gather around me. Jessica is the patient here so let's wait around her room. I will take her back home as soon as she is discharged. She will no longer continue whatever this relationship is." She concluded an

    "Oh God!" Cade lamented. "F*ck! How could you do this again?" Dave asked as he started at Valeria in disbelief. Jessica was as confused as Valeria was. "What on earth did you give to her, b*tch?" Cade asked as he stood very close to Valeria as if she was trying to swallow her whole. "Cade, back off!" Jessica warned but Cade wasn't ready to listen to her. "What the f*ck did you give to her?" He scolded as he pushed her, making her flinch in fear. For every step she took backwards to create a space between, Cade closed in on her. Even though Cade was young, he was taller and had a well built body and with the anger in his eyes and rage in his voice, it was no doubt it scared Valeria. "Hey…w-what do you think you're doing?" Valeria stuttered. "Cade, I'm talking to you. Back the f*ck off!" Jessica scolded as she grabbed his hand and forcefully pulled him back. Dave didn't know what to do at that time since she already swallowed the pills and the only thing he could do was run ou

    Cade couldn't stop himself from crying as he saw the condition Jessica was in. He tried to run to her but his legs felt heavy so he just trudged forward until he finally reached where she was seated.Jessica spread out her arms, calling him in for a hug but Cade was hesitant so Jessica pulled him closer and hugged him tightly. "I missed you." She whispered in his ear. Cruz sniffled hard as he tried to stop his cry. "I'm sorry Sister-in-law. I really am." Cade apologized in between his sniffles. "I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise of protecting you. While I was there having fun, I had no idea you were going through hell over here." He cried as he clenched onto her. "Cade, what was our last promise at the airport?" Jessica asked as she wiped her tears with the back of her right palm. Cade was hesitant, "To stop being nosy in your marriage.""Very good." Jessica sighed as she released him from the hug and made him sit beside her on the bed. "But this is not being nosy. You're cle
