" 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
" What are you doing here, Tina?" Johnson, atoms, last noticed his fiance's presence in the room. His eyes grew wary and he looked at Alexandrine suspiciously." Why is he looking at me like that? Is he suspecting something?" Alexandrine subconsciously wondered before getting out of bed and going to the washroom to put on her clothes, leaving Tina and Johnson alone in the room.Passing by Tina, she smirked at her before entering the washroom and closing the door behind her. Before putting on back her clothes, she leaned in to enjoy the show as she enthusiastically listened to their bantering.It didn't take long for Tina to lose her composure and shout at Johnson, the man she loves. " How could you do this? How could you betray me like this after I've warned you of her intentions?" She asked for an explanation from him, her eyes filled with tears.Blinded by the love he thought Alexandrine still had for him, he responded and said, " You're delusional, Tina. Alexandrine loves me and th
The one calling Alexandrine was none other than her parents. " It's my parents calling," Alexandrine muttered to Nathaniel right next to her.To give her some privacy, Nathaniel headed to the kitchen to tend to the dishes while Alexandrine attended the call." Hello, Mom!" Upon hearing her daughter's voice on the other side of the phone, she thought something was amiss but regardless stated the reason for her call. " Could you come home for dinner today, Alexa?"Alexandrine's parents haven't seen their daughter for a long time and they were worried for her, especially her composure after she had gone through such a traumatizing experience all by herself. They felt helpless as they weren't by their daughter’s side when she needed it most.Still, on the phone, Alexandrine gives her mother a response to her request about dinner, " It'll be my pleasure to join you guys for dinner tonight." She sounded a bit more enthusiastic than usual to see her parents after the tragedy she went through
Hours later, when Alexandrine awoke, it was four in the afternoon and she checked her phone for messages.Feeling the lower pain in her lower body, she walked out of the room. In the dining room, she was warmly greeted by servants." Good afternoon, madame! It's so good to see you again in this house. We've missed you a whole bunch." The servants considered Alexandrine as the lady of the house and all of them showed them immense respect due to that title she held." I missed you too." This situation was too awkward for Alexandrine as she tried to get through it the best she could. The reason that brought her back to the house wasn't to play busybody with anybody but to accomplish her purpose which was way far more important than anything else.She was still smiling awkwardly when the servants asked her, " What would you like to have served to you, my lady?" The servant was smiling at Alexandrine as she inquired the question from her. You could spot in the girl's eyes the respect and a
Nathaniel, who was at work at the time, received Alexandrine's message. " She's been admitted to the hospital?"" Thus must have something to do with Johnson and Tina. I need to go there right now and see how she's faring." Nathaniel left all the work he had left to do and rushed to the hospital as he was deeply worried about Alexandrine being suddenly admitted to the hospital.Moments later, at the hospital, the doctor bandaged Alexandrine's forehead and said, " She should be alright if she gets some ample rest."" Thank you, doctor, it'll be done." Johnson thanked the doctor before he got out of the ward and left the two of them alone.When the doctor was no longer in sight, Johnson held onto Alexandrine, his expression filled with anxiety. " What's the matter, Johnson? Why do you have that expression on your face?" She asked and his response was, " I was so anxious when I saw laying on the ground, moaning in pain."Alexandrine kept silent and Johnson continued, " I could never have
“ I hope this answers your question.” He stopped and added, “ You’re not allowed to go near other men; I forbid you from doing that.”Alexandrine was delighted to see her plan was working step by step. Day after day, Johnson was getting more and more entangled with her. The more his dependence on her grew, the more Alexandrine’s job became easier to accomplish.Johnson kept visiting Alexandrine in the hospital every single day until one day, he had some kind of news to announce to her.“ Alexandrine, I have something to tell you,” Johnson uttered in a stern tone and that worried Alexandrine a bit. The tone he was harboring was different from his usual self. Worried, she asked, “ What is it that you want to tell me, Johnson?”Johnson held her hands tightly and that worried her even more. Looking at her, he muttered, “ I won’t be coming to visit you in the hospital for a few days.” After uttering that sentence, he stopped to see whether Alexandrine would make some kind of reaction.Her
“ That vicious woman, she must be planning on using that strange substance on me. She’s so ruthless but I won’t let her succeed at any cost.” Returning to the taxi, the car drove away from there, and in no time Alexandrine was back in her apartment.Refreshing herself, she still had a hard time believing what she had witnessed between Tina and that man dressed in black. Why would Tina want to inject her with that thing? What would she gain by doing so? Those were Alexandrine’s unanswered questions that kept bugging her mind nonstop.“ Johnson and Tina? Meeting them was my greatest misfortune in life, but once this revenge is completed, will I finally gain some peace and quiet?” As soon as she wondered, as if to notify her it wouldn’t happen, her phone started ringing right next to her.“ Who’s the one bothering me when I’m trying to have some alone time to myself?” Alexandrine picked up her phone and as she looked at the screen to see the one who was calling her, Johnson’s name was th
