"Look, Brother, it's not even for long. I can stay here on my own until you're back. I can take…"

"No! That's not happening! Especially not after you've just had an accident. I can't leave you here all by yourself and Karen can't stay with you either because he is out of the country." Cruz explained, interrupting Cade.

"But you wouldn't want our parents to know about my accident. What will happen to that if I go home with these band-aids?" Cade asked again and because he was getting too worked up, his head began to hurt and he began to massage it.

Cruz became worried and this only confirmed Cade won't be able to take care of himself.

"You didn't take your drugs this morning, right?" He asked, narrowing his eyes at him.

Cade quickly dropped his face, trying to hide his lips which always reddened when he was lying.

"I-I…swallowed it after the meal you gave me. You saw me earlier, didn't…"

"You threw it out, right? And you still expect me to let you stay here for a whole week a

    "Are you serious about that?" Cade finally asked after a few minutes of awkward silence. "Well…I made a promise and I should see to it being fulfilled to the best of my ability. But I'm not sure your brother will agree to that." Jessica replied, scratching her hair lightly with her face dropped down. "Brother, say something!" Cade instructed Cruz who was still looking at Jessica in disbelief. "I-I…know she'd take good care of you but are you sure you're okay with this?" He asked Cade. "Of course, I'm okay with it!" Cade exclaimed happily. "If you both are okay with it, then it's fine with me. I will make sure to be back as soon as I can." Cruz revealed. Cade was so excited that she hugged Jessica tightly after which he followed his brother to help him pack for his trip. Jessica was shown into an empty room in the house after which Cruz explained to her all she had to know about the house and also Cade's medications. Once Cruz left for the airport, Jessica called Leah and

    "Mr. Westham?" Jessica wondered, her eyes widened in surprise. "That's my brother's voice. He is supposed to be in Panama now." Cade added also equally surprised. "Come down here now!" Cruz yelled into the walkie-talkie once more and Cade gestured for Jessica to come with him before hurrying downstairs. Jessica was a little hesitant as she was still quite perplexed, but then she had to go after Cade who was already on the stairs down to the living room where Cruz's voice was coming from. Cruz on the other hand returned the walkie-talkie to the security and dismissed them when he noticed Cade and Jessica coming downstairs. "What was this commotion all about?" Cruz asked as soon as they were standing in front of him. "It...it was you?" Jessica asked in stutters. "Brother, how are you here when you're supposed to be in Panama?" Cade asked curiously. "On my way to the airport today, Dad called to confirm that the location and date have been changed. It's now taking place at t

    CHAPTER SIXTEEN Cade's class ended by 5 pm that day and once it was over, Jessica prepared all her clothes that she had brought there the following day and was ready to go home. She sat in the room allocated to her and was about to hire a cab when Cade knocked and came in. "I know you're still angry with my brother but one thing I want you to know is that he can be every other bad thing a casanova can be but he'd never rape anyone or even try to. I'm not trying to justify what happened when I was not even there but I want you to know that he has never been in a position where anyone rejects him. That's why he doesn't understand the word 'NO'. But to be honest, I'm really grateful you taught him such a big lesson at least he understands it now." He explained with a smile. Jessica smiled and pulled him to sit beside her. "I understand you idolize your brother and I don't have any problem with that. I will try my best to not lose it when I see him but I'm not making a promise. He h

    'Woah! This girl and her friend are gutsy but I'm a Master at this game!' Cruz smiled as he thought to himself. "If you can put up with seeing my face every day then it's fine." He replied pretending not to have heard their conversation and as he noticed the slight frown on her face, he continued, "I mean, I will try my best not to get on your nerves." "Thank you!" She replied, shutting her eyes briefly to suppress the embarrassment. 'God! This is the worst moment of my life! I hope I survive this!' She breathed. "Shall we?" He asked, opening the front passenger seat for Jessica and once she was in, he shut the door and walked towards the driver's seat. 'Now the fun begins!' He thought to himself as he entered the car and began to drive home. As they hit the road from Santa Monica to Beverly Hills, Cruz felt it was time to start shooting his shots and Jessica's frequent grumbling stomach was a perfect way to start. "Hey, Miss Vegas, you haven't had anything today except th

    Rather than replying to Cruz, Jessica stood up and stomped away and once she was a few out of his sight she looked at her phone that was still ringing, and then she answered the call. "Frank! Don't ever call me in your life again! I mean it." She yelled and immediately ended the call. Frank was Jessica's first boyfriend who tried to rape her on her birthday, the same day Cruz also attempted the same. He also disseminated the videos of her violence which was the reason she almost lost her job if not for the mysterious helper whom she's not even sure of. She went back to the swimming pool where Cruz was still sitting to pick up her drink. Without a word, she attempted to leave but he grabbed her hand, forcing her to stop briefly. "Are you alright?" He asked out of concern. Jessica breathed heavily and narrowed her eyes at him before wiggling her hand off his grip. "I'm fine!" She replied before dashing into the main house and finding her way to her room. Her voice was taut

    Aside from the fact that Elizabeth Warren is a big screen Actress and fashionista, she is also Jessica's Idol but most importantly, Mr. Westham's girlfriend, or so the media says. "I almost swore the photo of you and Cruz at some restaurant were edited but you had to prove me so wrong, Miss Jessica Vegas." Elizabeth asserted in a penetrating voice, her words making Jessica slightly uncomfortable but vastly confused. "Miss Warren, it's nice to see you again." She exclaimed, grinning from ear to ear. Jessica is a great fan of hers because of her explicit acting and dressing style but the first time they met, Jessica made sure to explain to her how much of a jerk and a manwhore Cruz was, seeing her here now, Elizabeth felt all that was just a ploy to get closer to Cruz. "It doesn't feel so nice for me. What are you doing here?" She asked in a high-pitched voice, making Jessica even more uncomfortable but for all she knew, Elizabeth was his girlfriend and she obviously owed her an e

    Even though homosexualism is now wildly practiced, Jessica never in her wildest imaginations thought that the most sought out bachelor in LA was gay. "I just came." Jessica lied, dropping her gaze to avoid any suspicions. Cruz shut his eyes briefly and heaved a sigh of relief before opening them to see Daniel also peeking through the door to see Jessica. Their eyes met and they gawked at each other. Jessica bent down to pick the broken plates from the ground but out of shock, it pricked her finger. "Ouch…" She let out a gasp which pulled Cruz's attention and he ran down to her. "Are you alright?" He asked as he tried to grab her injured hand but Jessica quickly stood to her feet and hid her hand behind her back, preventing him from touching. "I'm fine." She replied, moving her eyes all around the corners of the passageway until they fell on the man in Cruz's office. He looked a lot like someone she had seen before but as always, she couldn't tell where. "Hi!" Daniel greeted wa

    Cruz set the timer on his phone and soon, their duel began. Within four rounds of swimming, Cruz paused to rest and catch his breath while Jessica proceeded. Cruz knew what he was doing and after a few second rest he continued and in a few minutes, the duel was over. While Jessica finished 4 minutes 43 seconds, Cruz was able to complete his in 4 minutes, 37 seconds winning the duel with just six seconds. Jessica sharply turned around and faced the edge on the other side of the pool and with a reasonable part of her body still fully submerged in water and her hands resting on the ground right after the pool, she seethed with rage. Apart from losing the match, Jessica hated the idea that he won despite resting while she didn't. "You rested, I didn't but you ended up beating me, doesn't that sound like fraud?" She asked, turning sharply to see Cruz before turning back. "That's the strategy dear. You didn't rest at all and that made you tired during the last three rounds and you

    "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
