11. Goodbye

"Are we good to go?" Shadrach asked.

"Yes, we are," Wynter replied, nodding.

"Okay, Bella, I think we have a new vet for you, and I guess we’ll be seeing her a lot," Shadrach murmured, gently caressing the pet's fur as he heard Wynter giggle.

"What happened?" Shadrach inquired.

"That's Ellias, the one whose fur you're petting," Wynter explained.

"Oh," Shadrach said, withdrawing his hand.

"Bella is sitting comfortably by my side," Wynter continued. "That's my chow-chow. It's not your fault; he’s about the same size as Bella, right, Elli?" Ellias woofed in response to Wynter's question.

"Got it!" Shadrach laughed. "Unlike my Bella, he seems really nice," he remarked, stroking Ellias' fur.

"That he is," Wynter said as she stood up. But before she could say anything else, there was a knock at the door. "Yes, please come in," she called.

Tessa walked in just as Wynter approached her seat. "Patients are waiting for you, Wynter. I just came in to see if you needed anything," Tess

I've two more chapters ready. I will publish them tomorrow and then I will pause the book for now because I am not getting any response from the readers, seems like it is boring them, and if I get traffic and once my angels show interest in this I will continue it then.

She blinked a few times, still nestled in her bed.“Please leave me alone, Harris. I need more sleep, and I’m not in the mood for an argument,” Wynter moaned.“How about your work?” Harris asked, lying down beside her.“It’s my hospital, and I can take a day off whenever I want,” Wynter replied, turning away and covering her face from him. Just then, Sabrina walked in and overheard their entire exchange.“Wynter, you never take a day off. What’s going on?” Harris asked concern etched on his face as he noticed his sister didn’t seem well.Sabrina gave him a stern look. “Leave her alone,” she urged, waving for Harris to step away, cutting him off once again.“All right,” Harris relented as he got out of bed.Sabrina sat down next to Wynter, tenderly caressing her hair. “Do you have anything you’d like to discuss?” she asked gently.“No, Mama Iris, I just don’t fe

"I suppose you know who I am," Wynter said."Yeah, I absolutely recall," Shadrach said, a boyish smile on his face. "I presume you're taking the day off, Dr. Grizelle?" Shadrach asked."No, I just felt like bunking today and bringing My Boy for a stroll, you know it's been a while since he's been here," Wynter said."Same with Bella, but I bring her here every day, and it's also like a break for me to come in open, which I seldom do," Shadrach stated again, tucking his hands in his pants pocket."Oh!" Wynter exclaimed, her back aching from standing for so long. "Can we sit someplace on a seat nearby and gaze at our dogs from there?" Wynter asked. She needed to protect her back, particularly since the doctor had advised her to be careful."Please forgive me for leaving the woman standing for so long." He signaled with his hands to take the first se

    14. A Start Of New FriendshipWynter tried to get into the swing of things quickly, but the excitement of meeting Shadrach seemed to slow time down. No matter how many patients she saw, it felt as if time stood still.Despite this, she persisted in her efforts and eventually completed her work. "I see someone is excited to leave," Wynter remarked as she passed Ethan on her way out. He had just exited the operating room, removing his blood-splattered gloves and tossing them into the trash."I just feel like leaving soon," he replied. Wynter attempted to brush it off, but his hurried expression was a dead giveaway."Hmm..." Ethan stepped closer, scrutinizing her. "Why do I smell lies here?" Wynter hurriedly tried to correct her stuttering speech. "N-No! Why would I lie to you?""Maybe you're going somewhere and don’t want me to know. A date, perhaps?" Ethan raised an eyebrow, a teasing smirk on his face.Wynter was at a loss for words, and Ethan’s chuckle left her friend dumbfounded."

    15. Someone From PastShadrach scanned his thumb over the apartment door, and the machine beeped, granting him access. He released Bella’s leash, and she immediately began barking furiously, alerting Shadrach to the presence of an intruder in the house. Cautiously, he positioned himself near a vase, noticing a rod left by the maid during her cleaning. He picked it up, ready to defend himself, before stepping outside and hearing laughter. It was a voice he recognized.“Yeah, I’ve come to meet a friend of mine,” the voice said over the phone.“Harry!” Shadrach exclaimed, dropping the rod.Bella sensed that Shadrach knew the person and returned to her spot on the sofa.“Okay, I’ll call you later,” Harry said, hanging up. “Oh! Hey, Shadrach!” He smirked as he approached and pulled him into a hug.Shadrach was taken aback; he hadn’t expected Harry to visit. “This is a surprise. What brings you here?” Shadrach asked, trying to mask his astonishment.“You sound like you’re not happy to see me

    16. Shadrach's Past When Wynter asked Shadrach about how he lost his sight and if he wanted to discuss it, he could have easily shrugged it off. However, for the very first time, he felt tired of holding everything within him. He wanted to let go of the burden that was weighing on his shoulders. Though he was certain that he couldn't tell Wynter everything, he could at least share a part of it with her. This way, he could start opening up to others, just as his doctors had advised.Seeing Shadrach lost in his thoughts, Wynter began to regret bringing up the topic. Perhaps it had triggered something he didn't want to mention, or maybe he was struggling to find the right words to express his emotions, fearing that it might scare her away.She took a deep breath and glanced at their hands, resting on the bench by their sides. Approaching gently, Wynter reached out for his hands. Shadrach flinched initially but soon relaxed upon realizing it was Wynter.Wynter started, "Shadrach, if you d

    17. Wynter's TaleAs promised, the two arrived at the park the next day, bringing Ellias and Bella along. Unlike the previous day, where Shadrach was the first to arrive and wait for Wynter, today Wynter finished her work quickly and arrived a little earlier than Shadrach. They left Bella and Eli to play on their own and settled on their benches."I apologize for leaving early yesterday," Wynter said, expressing her regret."Oh, there's no need to apologize. When we have conversations, we should consider the time, and continuing the discussion the next day gives us another reason to see each other," Shadrach pointed out."You're right," Wynter giggled. "But you asked me something yesterday that I didn't have time to reply to." She explained her point to Shadrach.Shadrach explained that he had asked Wynter if she had experienced something similar to his own. Wynter also remembered that she was about to tell Shadrach about her biological mother, Denissa, but Sabrina's phone call had dis

    18. Bonds and ResponsibilitiesThe next day, Wynter was preparing to go to her clinic when, once again, her little brother interrupted her."Wyn Wyn, are you going to the clinic today?" Hunter pouted at Wynter. It was the start of his vacation, and the King family had yet to decide on their annual family vacation. Normally, they would plan it according to everyone's schedules and go somewhere secluded to spend quality time together. However, it had only been a week since Hunter's vacation began, and he was already bored staying home alone."Yes, sweetie," Wynter replied, sitting down to be at eye level with him. "Why do you look sad, munchkin?"Hunter puckered his lips, his eyes glistening with unshed tears. "Wyn Wyn, I'm bored. Nobody is home, everyone is busy. Nobody cares about me. Nobody loves me," he explained, his voice breaking. Hunter tended to stumble over his words when he was emotional, although his speech was usually very clear.Wynter reassured him, "Not at all, baby.

    19. Trust Shadrach was stunned when he heard a small boy's voice coming from behind him. Hunter stood in the doorway, assuming his sister was talking to a patient. However, Ellias quickly grabbed his leash, which was in Hunter's hand, and rushed towards Bella. Bella was still groaning in pain from the effects of the syringe that Wynter had injected into her. Nevertheless, she was a little excited to see her friend. "Hunter, what are you doing here?" Wynter asked, knowing her brother very well. Hunter wouldn't stop pestering Wynter with questions, and he wouldn't give up until Wynter spilled all the details. Wynter was worried that he might blurt out something silly in front of Shadrach, especially since she wasn't sure how to introduce him when she herself didn't know where they stood in their relationship. A part of her feared that he might bring up her pregnancy, like he did with Ethan, and that it would make Shadrach feel betrayed or like she didn't trust him. She was afraid tha

Wynter has officially moved into my penthouse at Jackson Tower.

He seems satisfied with that arrangement, and I’m happy to have him close.For the first time, this penthouse feels like home. Wynter, however, insists that we also spend time at the house she bought for herself. When I suggested renting it out, she outright refused, saying it held sentimental value for her.

Her hands moved swiftly over Wynter’s body, inspecting her from head to toe for any signs of injury. When she found none, she exhaled in relief, her grip on Wynter tightening for a moment as if to reassure herself that she was unharmed."Mama Iris, where’s Storm?"

My hands and legs were bound tightly, and my mouth was gagged, making it impossible to speak.I tried to piece together what had happened. The phone call with Ethan... the men barging into the clinic... being dragged out at gunpoint. I remembered trying to resist, only to be struck with the barrel of a gun, everything going black after that.Now, I was here, in complete darkness, unable to make out my surroundings. I tried to scream, but the gag muffled any sound I made.My eyes adjusted to the dim light and wandered toward the darkest corner of the room. I squinted, focusing hard. Someone was seated there, in the shadows. I couldn’t make out their face or even discern if it was a man or a woman.Then, the figure stood and began walking toward me. The sound of their shoes clicking against the floor echoed in the silence, sending a chill down my spine. I squinted harder, and when they stepped into the f

I really owe you for this one," I said earnestly over the phone, my voice thick with gratitude.Mr. King had just forwarded the proof I desperately needed to confirm my suspicions. My uncles were behind my parents’ murder. I hadn’t expected him to uncover the truth so quickly, but the detailed statements he had sent via email were undeniable.He explained that he had used his connections in Chicago to pressure the burglars, who were serving life sentences for the crime. Originally, they had claimed the murders were accidental—that they’d entered our home for a robbery and killed my family when confronted. But under Mr. King’s pressure, they admitted the truth: my uncles had bribed them to carry out the killings."As long as my daughter is happy with you, you don’t owe me anything," Mr. King replied in his deep, authoritative voice. Yet, beneath his calm tone, there was an unspoken warning that sent a chill through me."I promise I wil

She kept stealing glances at it, her eyes sparkling with excitement.“Mama Iris is going to be so shocked!” Wynter exclaimed as they passed through the bustling streets of the city.Shadrach, focused on the road, glanced at her and smiled warmly. “Maybe that’s the kind of shock your father needs to reassure him that I don’t plan on leaving your side anytime soon,” he chuckled.Wynter turned to him, curiosity brimming in her eyes. “Speaking of Dad, how did your meeting with him go? What did he say? I know he can be... intimidating.” Her words came out in a rush, barely giving her time to breathe.“Breathe, Griz. Take it easy,” Shadrach laughed. “I won’t lie, though—your dad is very intimidating. He’s got this aura, like he’s some mafia boss and not a CEO. Are you sure he’s not into something... shady?” He teased, though his tone carried genuine intrigue.Wynter let out a small l
