The person's clothes Alexandrine held onto was Ava, her exclusive model for the fashion show competition. She managed to get to her on time. Seeing her deteriorated condition, Ava was horrified." Save my child! Save my child!" Alexandrine keeps repeating with tears flowing from her eyes. She was worried something horrible might have happened to her unborn baby.Ava squatted to her level and muttered worriedly, " Ms. Claire, you're losing too much blood. We must get you to the hospital asap." Ava looked at the organizers, hoping for their benevolence in the matter. As they also looked at Alexandrine's deteriorated condition, one of them quickly called for an ambulance and the one who did so was Johnson Santos himself. Ava was relieved that the ambulance would be arriving soon.Ava looked over at Alexandrine and muttered, " The ambulance will be getting here soon, Ms. Claire. Please hold on until the ambulance arrives!" She held her hand to give her moral support. Alexandrine tried to
" You should rest now." Nathaniel laid her down on the bed and muttered sweetly, " I'll be back to see you again in a little while." Okay!" She nodded.Nathaniel left the ward to let Alexandrine rest. When he was no longer in sight, she muttered, " If only I had met you earlier on before Johnson entered my life, I'm sure I wouldn't have suffered such hardships. You would have supported me and my life would have been colorful every day without fail." She stopped midway and said, " How I wish I could return all the amount of love you're giving me, Nathaniel? How I wish I could love you just as much as you love me?"Moments later, in a daze of being half-asleep, Alexandrine heard someone entering her room and thought it was Nathaniel who had returned, however, she heard Tina's laughter and immediately opened her eyes." What are you doing in my ward, Tina? What the hell do you want?" She stared at the latter who looked smudged." Why am I here?" Tina laughed sarcastically and muttered,
In the next days that followed, Nathaniel took care of Alexandrine by giving her lots of love and attention. Ava and Doriane went to visit her in the days that followed to inquire about her health." How are you doing, Ms Claire?" Ava asked but seeing the latter's expression, Ava could alone guess the answer. Nonetheless, Alexandrine thanked her for protecting her when everyone was slandering her name. " I owe my child's safety to you, thank you so much!"" There's no need for you to thank me over this, Miss Claire."When their eyes met, Alexandrine was too embarrassed to look at Doriane, her boss. " Why won't you look at me, Alexandrine?" She asked.With her gaze lowered, she muttered, " I'm too ashamed, Doriane. Your design studio got slandered in another plagiarism case; I'm so sorry!"Doriane approached Alexandrine and swiftly lifted her head so she could look at her, " You have nothing to feel ashamed of as none of this had been orchestrated by you." She muttered before adding, "
A couple of days back before I went to Alexandrine’s house to see her—----------Since returning home after that day in the hospital, Tina has been pestering me about our engagement. She would ask me questions like, “ When are we going to choose a date for our engagement? Or, are we ever getting engaged at all?”I was pestered almost every day by the same seemingly questions that one day, I decided on a whim, “ Let’s get engaged two weeks from now!”“ Johnson, you’re the best,” I remembered how happy that made her that she started right away to make preparations for it. Whenever she had the chance, she would want to take part as in the end, it was our engagement we were talking about, so why should I be excluded from it at all?“ Johnson, what do you think of these pieces of jewelry?” She showed me the jewelry that caught her fancy and would ask me with a bright grin in the corner of her lips, “ Do you like them, Johnson?”“ Yes, I love them very much, Tina. They look good on you.” I
Moments later, Alexandrine awoke from her slumber, and what she witnessed stunned her bizarrely." You're awake. Have you slept well?"Her ex-husband, Johnson was stroking her hair warmly and affectionately. It was as if they were back a year ago, to their newlywed life. Alexandrine felt disgusted seeing that approach being utilized on her. Instinctively, she pushed him away and stood up. Glaring at him, she coldly muttered, " Stop playing these kinds of games already, Johnson!" " It's been over between us for a long time and you better not forget it."Connivingly, Johnson said to his former wife, " I'm not playing any games with you right now and I never did." Alexandrine glared at him without uttering a word. " You may not know it, but I ended my relationship with Tina."…" You're the reason I've ended everything, Alexandrine." He spoke his heart out to Alexandrine who was simply staring at him without a sound. " As the engagement day approached, I realized that I couldn't live wit
" Ah, it hurts!" She screamed in pain as she had her hands on her belly. Tina observed the spectacle from afar and was enjoying her state to the fullest.Passersby gather around Alexandrine to see what was going on. " My baby--------- Please someone save my baby!"Alexandrine looked at Tina who was portraying a hint of malice in her eyes. She was enjoying seeing her in pain and Alexandrine was losing more and more blood. Alexandrine was seriously concerned about her baby's well-being due to the amount of blood she had already lost so far." Tina, what have I ever done to you that you would harm me like this?" Subconsciously, Alexandrine reminisced about all the encounters she'd had with Tina thus far. Not to forget the last one that was about to cost her the life of her unborn child." My child was put in danger once before but fortunately, I managed to pull through and now it's happening again." This time, she reminisced about the plagiarism incident in Paris which was orchestrated b
" This cannot be happening. My child cannot be gone. My baby—--- My baby—----"Seeing Alexandrine so shattered due to the loss of her child, Nathaniel didn't know how to comfort her. No matter what he would come to say in this situation, that wouldn't comfort her in any way.Alexandrine was shedding tears controllable muttering things like, " I saw a little boy in my dream. It was my son and he was so cute, but I couldn't approach him or tell him how much I loved him."Seeing her distorted state, Nathaniel swiftly bugged her. That was the only thing he could do in this situation. Holding her in his arms, she kept muttering things like, " This is all that lunatic fault. She's going to pay for this; She's going to pay a huge price for separating a mother from her child so cruelly." At the time, Nathaniel had no idea what exactly Alexandrine was muttering about but he'll soon find out, not long after.After cursing Tina and Johnson, she fell back asleep. Nathaniel was disheartened to see
After whispering those things in her ear, she stepped back from her and watched as Tina soon ran out of the ward afterward. Seeing her leave, Alexandrine subconsciously muttered, " Run as fast as you can as your troubles are only just beginning."Tina stormed into Johnson's office right after leaving the hospital. She was disheveled and scared as she held onto him in panic. " What's wrong, Tina? Why are you like this? Did something happen?"Attempting to answer the question, Tina hugged Johnson tightly. Johnson didn't understand what was going on with Tina and why she was suddenly hugging him out of nowhere.After a while of hugging him, she finally began to talk and the first thing that came out of her mouth was, " Promise me, Johnson!"Confused, he asked, " What exactly am I to promise you, Tina?"She responded and said, " Promise me you won't ever leave me no matter what may happen in the future."At that mention, Johnson asked, " Why are you suddenly saying stuff like that? You're
