2024-10-29 19:42:56Clara came back in with Andrew and everyone pretended that they didn't see what they just saw.
Camellia walked up to Andrew and looked at him with her arms crossed like she was upset with him.
“What?” he asked looking at the seven-year-old.
“Do you like my aunt?” she asked.
“Now Cam, don’t disturb our guest.” Jasmin said holding her daughter.
“I don’t like him, mom.” Camellia said.
“Camellia! That is a very bad thing to say” Jasmin reprimanded.
“It’s okay Mrs. Rose.” Andrew said.
“I’m truly sorry Andrew. We spoiled her too much. And call me Jasmin.” She said with a smile.
“Hey, Coco you got two packages. I’ve put them in your room.” Leo told her.
“Who was it from?” Clara asked.
“Don’t know. It didn’t have a return address.”
She nodded.
“Come on I’ll give you the tour of my house.” She said.
He nodded and walked with her upstairs.
She took him to her room first so s

The next morning Clara woke up and found herself in her bed nicely tugged in. She thought that Leo was the one who carried her to bed. She got up and went to the bathroom to freshen up and change, then she went downstairs. She saw everyone was having breakfast. “Good morning, Aunt Clay.” Camellia said rushing towards her and gave her a hug. “Good morning, Cam.” She said and patted her head. 'She looks much happier now that Andrew’s not here.’ She said to herself and smiled as she sat down on the chair. “Did you have a good night's sleep princess?” Leo asked with a teasing tone. “Yes. Why?” she asked a little irritated. “Nothing.” He said with a smile. It didn't felt like nothing to her. Jasmin gave her toast and eggs with coffee for breakfast. “So when did Andrew leave?” she asked casually as she sipped her coffee. “Oh, he left after putting you to bed.” Angelina told her. She choked on her coffe

The car was almost about to hit her when she was suddenly pushed away by someone. They both fell to the ground. The car quickly speeded away and disappeared. “Are you okay?” the person asked. She looked around and saw that it was Drake who had just saved her. She nodded at him. He helped her up and examined her closely. “Did you get hurt?” he asked her with a worried look. “No, I’m fine. Thank you, Drake.” “Your welcome. It would’ve been a terrible accident if I didn’t save you.” He said looking relieved. “I checked before I crossed the street but that car came out of nowhere. My mind went blank when I saw that car coming towards me.” She explained. “You don’t have to explain to me. Some people drive like crazy. That idiot must’ve been drunk.” "What about you are you hurt?" She asked. "No, I'm fine. Thanks for asking. You here with Andrew?" He asked. "How did you know?" She asked

Clara's eyes closed tightly, involuntary at the loud bang. She waited for the bullet to take her life but it never came. She opened her eyes to see what had happened and the next thing surprised her. The bullet never went through the window but instead, it had left a really small dent on the window of the car. The man quickly tried to open the door but Andrew was faster. He locked all the doors with the press of a button. He started the car and drove it in the backward direction as fast as he could. The man started to empty all the bullets at them but luckily all the bullets repelled the car. Andrew pushed the accelerator and drove away with speed. Clara was so shocked but she managed to recover quickly and wore her seat belts. “Thank God the car was bulletproof.” Clara said in a low voice. Andrew had slowed down a little when they were far enough but he didn’t stop. “Where are we going?” she asked him. “To the police s

The next morning Angelina woke up with a headache. She groaned as she tried to get up. She stopped realizing that someone was holding her. She looked at the arm around her in shock, then she looked up and saw Brandon who was sleeping peacefully. She yelled, freaking out about what had happened. “What? What? What happened?” he said in surprise, waking up from his sleep. He looked at Angelina who was looking at him with fear and shock. Brandon hit himself on the head when he realized what the situation was. ••• Clara was trying to call Angelina when she got a call from the company that neither she nor her secretary was there to handle the things. She got frustrated and worried about her at the same time. She changed into office wear and call her driver. She kept calling her on the way to work but she never picked up. “I am going to kill that woman.” She said under her breath. She went to her office

He was still fast asleep when his phone rang. He got up tiredly and answered his phone. There was a piece of paper stuck on his face. “Hello. This is Andrew Bloom speaking.” He answered in a sleepy tone, without looking at the caller ID. “Were you sleeping?” Clara asked. He looked at the caller ID with a frown and then answered her. “Yes. I was going to rest my eyes but I ended up falling asleep.” “If it was one of your employees I bet you would’ve given them an earful.” She said. Andrew rolled his eyes. “Haha, very funny.” He said sarcastically. “I wasn’t joking but I’m glad you found it funny.” He shook his head a little and realized that something was stuck on his face. “What are you doing?” he asked taking the piece of paper off. “I just got off work and am heading home. What about you are you still at your office?” He looked at the time and realized that it was way past working time.

“Clara!” she heard Leo’s voice. She looked up and saw that Leo and Jasmin were running towards her. Her tears started flowing again. She got up and ran towards Leo. She hugged him and started to cry out hard. “Leo it’s all my fault. He’s in there because of me.” She wailed. “Shh… it’s not your fault my little baby kitten.” He tried to calm her down. "Oh, sweetie don't blame yourself." Jasmin said as she caressed her head. Angelina came running behind Leo and saw Clara crying her heart out. She kept blaming herself. Leo managed to calm her down after a while. Just when she had stopped cry Drake came running towards her with Jake and Jennifer. Angelina didn’t like her being here but she didn’t say a word. “How is he? Do you have any news?” Jake asked worriedly. “We don’t know. He’s been in there for quite a time.” Angelina told them. Drake came in front of Clara when he saw how much of a mess she w

Clara was stuck inside a dark place. She kept running and running until she found Andrew. She saw him coming towards her but then he stopped when he was close to her. She saw blood slowly staining his clothes. She wanted to run to him but she couldn’t move. She couldn’t even hear her own voice when she called his name. She saw Andrew covered in his own blood and collapsed on the floor. He pointed at her. “It’s all your fault.” Those were his final words. “ANDREW!” she yelled his name as she jerked upwards waking up from her nightmare. “Hey, hey, hey. It was just a nightmare.” Leo said quickly coming to her side. She looked and him terrified. She held his arms. “Where Andrew? How is he?” “He’s fine Clara. He’s awake and alright.” He told her, trying to calm her down. “I need to see him.” She said getting out of bed and taking off the IV needle on her hand. “Hey, he's fine Clara you need to rest too. You passed out from s

They didn’t talk to each other the whole day or the day after that. On the third day, Clara got discharged without telling him. She went straight to her office despite Leo’s opposition. She dumped herself into work to forget about Andrew. She was immersed in what was in front of her that she didn’t notice Angelina calling her until she waved her hand in front of her. She looked at her. “What?” she asked. “This.” Angelina waved the documents in front of her. Angelina gave it to her. She opened it and looked at the papers inside it. It was the documents about Jennifer’s father’s company. She read through the documents. He had embezzled a lot of fund money that should’ve been used for the company’s products and he had harassed a lot of female employees too but he silenced them by either giving them money or by threatening them. “Can you make them talk for us?” she asked her. “I already contacted a few. Those who we

“I thought that you were going to tell me if something happens to her.” Leo complained. He had just come in with breakfast and found out that Clara had woken up. He was so relieved and happy to see her smiling. He hugged and scowled her too for getting herself in danger and then looked at Andrew annoyed that he didn’t tell him that’s she’s awake. “She woke up a few minutes ago. Plus I wanted to spend some time alone with her. And nothing happened to her.” Andrew said. “Okay, okay. Don’t start a fight.” She said laughing a little at the two. “We’re not fighting.” The two said at the same time. She smiled and shook her head at the two of them. “Hey, I love you both and I want you guys to get along too. Andrew.” She looked at him. “Yes?” “I wish that you would get along with Leo.” “Okay love but you wasted your wish and you have one left. So be careful about your last one.” Andrew reminded her. “Wish?” Leo

Andrew and Leo went back to the hospital Clara was admitted at. Leo went inside her room while Andrew sent the voice recording to the detective. After that, he also went inside the room. Clara was still lying unconscious on the bed. Andrew sat beside her on a stool and held her hand. Jasmin looked at him sadly. She tugged on Leo’s shirt. Leo looked at her. She moved closer to him and whispered something. Leo nodded. “Andrew, do you mind staying here with her? We need to go and check on our girl.” Andrew nodded without looking back. “I need to go to the office too. It must be hectic there.” Angelina said. “I’ll call if something happens.” Andrew said as he looked at Clara. Everyone left the room. It was quiet and the only sound was coming from the heart monitor. Andrew held the back of her hand to his cheek and looked at her. “Wake up please, Clara.” He whispered and kissed the back of her hand. A

Andrew and Leo were stopped in front of Drake’s room by the policemen and Jake. “Jake I need to speak with him.” Andrew said in his dominating tone. Jake felt a little small in front of him. “Fine, you can go, but he can’t.” Jake said and pointed at Leo. “My sister’s on her death bed and I can’t even confront the killer who put her there?” Leo asked, his voice full of fury. “I am terribly sorry about that but if you two fight with him then you two will get in trouble too and make the matter even worse.” Jake told them, “What Drake did is unforgivable but I don’t want you guys to turn out like him. This is exactly what he wants Andrew.” Jake looked at his brother desperately. Andrew took a deep breath. “Fine. But I still want to have a talk with him.” He said. Jake nodded at Andrew. “But only you.” Jake stressed. “Bu-“ Andrew put a hand on Leo's shoulder and stopped him from finishing his

The doctors quickly took her to the surgery room when they reached the hospital. Andrew and the rest of her family were waiting out. Andrew was sitting on the ground cover in Clara’s blood. When he bought her to the hospital the doctor told him that she had lost too much blood and because of that, he was extremely terrified of something happening to Clara. Leo was sitting on the chair with Jasmin beside him. She was trying to comfort him. Angelina was standing in a corner and glaring at Andrew. She was angry with him because she thought that he was the cause of all this mess, but she said nothing about it. After a few long hours of waiting the doctor came out. Everyone gathered around him. “Is she going to be alright?” Andrew asked desperately. “She has been stabilized, but we would need to watch her condition. But if she doesn’t wake up then I’m afraid that she might never wake up.” The doctor broke it down to them. Andrew collapsed o

Andrew called Clara again when he got home, but she again didn’t pick. It was pretty late so he thought that she might have gone to sleep. He changed his clothes and went to bed. He couldn’t sleep the entire night because he was restless and he had no idea why. He finally managed to fall asleep at 4 AM and woke up at 6 AM. He took a shower and changed his clothes and then again called Clara but her phone was off. He got worried. He took his car keys and drove to her house. He rang the doorbell a little urgently. Her housemaid came out and greeted him and let him in. “Who is the idiot who’s ringing the bell-like a manic?” Angelina said coming from behind she stopped when she saw Andrew, “Oh it’s this idiot. What are you doing here?” she asked coming towards him. The housemaid left when she was no longer needed. “Where’s Clara?” he asked urgently. “What?” she looked at him surprised, “Hasn’t she been with you since yesterday?” “N

Andrew was being questioned by the detectives as they were investigating his father’s murder. Jake came running in as the detectives went back into David’s room. “What happened?” Jake asked Andrew. “Can’t you see?” Andrew gestured to their father’s room, “Someone killed the old man.” Jake fell down on the chair in shock and grief. Even though Andrew hated his father to the core he felt a pinch of pain in his heart. “How did this happen? He was fine when I left.” Jake said. “Life is unpredictable. Do you know where Drake is? I’ve been trying to reach him but his phone is off.” “I don’t know he just said he was going to hang around with a friend.” Andrew sighed sharply with a frown and call Drake’s number again. His phone was still off. “It’s very strange. He called me a few minutes ago but now his phone is off.” Andrew said. “He called? And you answered?” Jake asked surprised. “Yeah… why?” “You ne

Clara went home after talking with Andrew but now had to deal with Angelina. “You spend the night out again.” Angelina said, this time disapprovingly. “I am a grown woman. Stop treating me like a kid.” Clara said irritated. “Then don’t come crying if he leaves you again.” Angelina said annoyed. “Don’t judge a relationship if you don’t know anything about it. And stop talking to me like you are my parents. I already have enough on my mind.” “Fine!” Angelina snapped. “Fine!” she snapped back and went to her room. Angelina was just jealous of Clara that Andrew and she were back together but she and her ex were finished. She thought that it was unfair to her that Clara always had it easy. The two didn’t talk with each other the whole week. They were both angry with each other and Clara was always on edge because of the additional stress and work. She would sometimes go out with Andrew and would occasionally get annoyed at h

Clara woke up when she heard Andrew mumble and struggle. She looked at him and saw that he was having a nightmare. She sat up quickly and tried to wake him holding the blanket over her chest. “Andrew, wake up.” She shook him. He was still having a nightmare. He had a painful expression and had cold sweat on his forehead. “Andrew, wake up!” She said louder and shook him harder. His eyes flew open as he woke up from the terrible nightmare. He looked at Clara breathing heavily. He then got up and hugged her. He was frightened by what he saw. “Hey, it’s okay it was just a nightmare.” She hugged him back and comforted him. “Don’t leave me. Don’t go away.” He told her, hugging her even tighter. “I’m not going anywhere. Shhh.” She patted his back. After a while when he calmed down he leaned back and looked at her. “Are you feeling better?” she asked caressing his cheek and looking at his eyes. “I’m still afraid

Andrew didn’t believe him. He grabbed his collar angrily. “Brandon I will fire you if you are lying to me!” Andrew raised his voice at him. “I’m not lying Mr. Bloom. It’s all over the news.” Andrew released him and went inside. He turned on the TV. Andrew’s heart sank as he saw the news. Brandon wasn’t lying. The plane that Clara was supposed to be on exploded as soon as it took off. “No, no, no. This can’t be happening. I can’t lose you too. No Clara please.” He said as tears fell down his face. He ran to his room and picked up his phone. “Please, please don’t be on that plane please.” He said as he dialed her number. Her number couldn’t be reached. He tried again and again but the result was the same. “NOO!” He yelled and threw away his phone hard on the ground. It broke into pieces. “No, no.” he cried as he slowly sat down on the floor. “You can’t be dead. You can't leave me like my mother did
