"We don't have to meet for us to have a grudge against you. I mean, there is an online community where we all meet and form alliances or grudges." The first maid remarked and immediately, Jessica realized they were only trying to bully her because of her brief relationship with Cruz.

"And don't think we are the only ones holding grudges against you, there are a lot of ladies…"

"Point of correction, it is not 'ladies' but 'shameless ladies' with no self-respect or esteem. Next time you plan to stop me, think of a better reason and stop disgracing yourself." Jessica reprimanded while the ladies just dropped their heads in embarrassment and anger.

Next thing, she shoved them aside and attempted to go into the elevator once again but someone else stopped her.

"Hey, Ms. Vegas!" A lady whom Jessica recognized as a staff member from Royal High and one of the interns greeted her.

"How are you doing, Ms. Manning, do you also work here?" Jessica asked curiously.

"I'm doing good. I heard y

    "Maybe you didn't know this but the school is only organized for the internship of four staff members in this hospital…" "Well…that was before I was included in the list. The school principal explained this to me and he also made me understand that each hospital is now supposed to accept five staff members. I mean…I even got accepted yesterday." Jessica explained to the best of her knowledge, interrupting Ms. Rivera. "I know but due to the short notice on the information, we couldn't provide more vacancies for the additional staff as we had other interns from different medical schools. But because the school board of trustees wanted you to return to the school, Mr. Westham decided to accept a fifth person and that happens to be you. I hope you understand that you are directly under the Chief Surgeon now. You should be grateful for this double opportunity because you're going to learn a lot from him more than any other interns would." Ms. Rivera persuaded and Jessica became confused.

    "I don't think that is in your dictionary and even if it is, it obviously doesn't have the same meaning as others so I don't want your kind of help!" Jessica scolded terribly. "Are you seriously trying to tell me you don't know how I've helped you today? Do you think I would try to ruin this opportunity for you? After I overheard you complaining about how the other interns were already questioning your sincerity and relationship with me, that's why I wanted to show them there's no such thing between us. Being so formal with you in front of her will make her believe I don't associate my personal life with my professional life and soon enough, everyone will know of it because she's going to make it spread like wildfire. All I wanted was to make them believe there's no familiarity between us so that by the end of this program, your recommendation letter is not questioned but you…you believe the only thing I'm good for is causing problems and not solving them so you will always ever see

    "Oh…Ummm…I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to interrupt your…" Jessica stuttered as she quickly closed the door behind her. "Fuck, that's gross!" She panicked, breathing heavily, and just then the door opened again and Cruz was standing behind her confused. "Are you alright?" He asked curiously. "Uhmm…yeah, yeah I'm good. Go back and have fun!" Jessica gasped as she quickly turned around and hurried down the veranda to where the nurses' office was. Jessica had a hard time concentrating on her work even after returning to her office and Ms. Rivera was forced to notice. "Are you alright?" She asked out of concern, jolting Jessica out of her thoughts. "Yeah…" she gasped, moving her eyes from one corner of the room to another until she decided to ask the question that had been troubling her mind. "Hey, Ms. Rivera…" "Mia! That's more comfortable." Mia corrected as she was more comfortable being called by her name. Jessica didn't have a problem with that after all, they were age mates.

    "A serious situation? What do you mean by that?" Cruz questioned with wide eyes. "Uhmm…on the second floor…there is an issue of…sexual harassment involving…please just come with me." Mia suggested after several seconds of stuttering. "S-Sex…sexual harassment?" Cruz wondered as he dashed out of his office. "Where is Ms. Vegas?" He asked as he noticed her empty desk. "Uhmm…she is at the scene. Actually, we both went to do something downstairs when a patient…" "Did something happen to Jessica? Why did you leave her by herself? You could have just called me." He reprimanded before dashing out of the office into his elevator. Mia, who was confused after being reprimanded, couldn't make it to the elevator before it closed and hence had to wait for another one. Cruz paced restlessly in the elevator all through his ride down to the second floor and as soon as he arrived at the second floor, he ran through the small crowd of nurses and patients until he saw Jessica and immediately pulle

    "Yes, Ma'am. I was only trying to report the situation to Dr. Westham but you blew it out of proportion." Ms. Landon confirmed. Jessica moved her eyes all around the place looking for where to hide them from Cruz whose puffy eyes were now filled with tears that he was trying his best to hold back. but the crowd began to complain about her rude and ill-mannered speech about Cruz. "Just because Dr. Westham has been lenient with you and allowed you to be a part of his life doesn't mean you can say whatever rubbish you want about him." A patient complained. "Yeah. She's just so rude, no one would believe she's talking to her boss. Just because he is so nice to you doesn't mean you can be rude and disrespectful." Another patient complained. "They are right this time, Ms. Vegas. You can't just say whatever you like and expect to get away with it so easily. Remember you already received your first query." Mia complained.

    "I-I…forgot my phone…so I came to… pick it up." Jessica stuttered. "Ok. You can leave now." Cruz replied and with much hesitation, she left the office. 'She couldn't have heard me, right?' He wondered, still staring at the door leading outside the office long after Jessica had left. "Dr. Westham…" "Oh, sorry for keeping you waiting." Cruz interrupted Ms. Wellington who had called him. He returned to his seat and tried his best in persuading them. "I am only going back on my decision because of you." Ms. Wellington concluded and Cruz was happy about it even though he was still very disappointed at Jessica's distrust for him. Once Cruz's meeting with Ms. Wellington was over, Cruz also left the hospital, but there were still several doctors and nurses on night shifts at the hospital. Jessica was distraught on reaching home that night and she was worried about how to explain her foul mood to Leah and Tyler but luckily for her, Tyler happened to have taken Leah out on a date and be

    Cruz's blood wail drew Mia's attention and seeing his office door wide open, she knew something was up so she ran to his office to find out. "Sir, what is going on?" She panicked as she saw Cruz frantically trying to wake Jessica up. As expected, Cruz didn't pay any attention to her but rather carried Jessica into his office and laid her on the hospital bed which was adjacent to his desk. He checked his pulse and also her heartbeat before connecting an IV to her left hand after which he slumped on the mini couch right beside the bed and let out a heavy sigh. He relaxed his head on top of the couch, facing the ceiling as he roughly rubbed his hand against his face. Mia who had been helping him in silence finally decided to speak up. "Sir, what happened to her?" She asked out of concern. Cruz kept quiet for a while but his red eyes spoke volumes and after working with him for three years, Mia knew when to give him his space so she left the office. A few minutes later, she was fo

    Jessica tried to push Cruz's hands off gently but he was too strong for her. "What do you think I'm doing here? Obviously stalking you!" Cruz replied confidently, provoking Klaus to break the steel fork he was holding. "Cruz, get your hand off me and get out of here. Stop causing a scene here!" Jessica advised but Cruz didn't come all the way here just to leave so early. Cruz happened to be having a meal in the next room with the health workers but Jessica's never-ending laughter drew his attention and as soon as the health workers were gone, he decided to crash in. "Is that what you think? Am I really causing a scene? Too bad, because I just arrived and I'm not planning to leave until you are also leaving." Cruz replied, and this time, Klaus totally lost his cool as he angrily stood up to his feet and banged his hand on the table. "CRUZ WESTHAM!" He called out angrily, his eyes burning red. "YES! THAT'S MY NAME!" Cruz yelled back at him as he also stood up to his feet, scaring

    "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

    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
