Max gently laid her on the bed. Her face was pale, and her breathing was shallow. Mrs. Sophia rushed into the room as she quickly fixed her robe.

“What happened to her?” she asked with a trembling voice.

“She fainted,” Max replied curtly as he adjusted the pillows beneath Kristen’s head.

“Oh, my goodness, poor thing,” Mrs. Sophia said, moving closer to the bed. She placed a hand on Kristen’s forehead and gasped. “Gracious Lord, she has a fever!” she exclaimed. “I need to bring something to lower her temperature.” Without waiting, she hurried out of the room.

Unnoticed, Lena stood just outside the door, peeking in. When she saw Mrs. Sophia coming, she quickly stepped back to avoid being caught. Once the coast was clear, she moved to stand in front of the door, glaring furiously at the scene inside. Her eyes darted between Kristen lying on the bed and Max standing beside her.

She clenched her fists as she glared at them furiously.

Lena stormed into the room and marched straight to Max,

    Max returned home late looking exhausted. As he headed to his library, he paused at Kristen's door. After a brief hesitation, he slowly turned the handle and pushed the creaky door open.Kristen lay still on the bed, her face slightly pale. Max walked in quietly, his gaze lingering on her peaceful face. He sat beside her and observed her face. After a while, he gently placed a hand on her forehead to check her temperature, his brows knitting with concern.He moved his hand in front of her nose to feel her breath. When he wasn’t sure, he leaned closer and rested his head lightly on her chest to listen for a heartbeat.Suddenly, Kristen’s eyes fluttered open without him noticing. She blinked as if waking from a long dream. Seeing Max’s head near her chest and his hand still resting there, her confusion quickly turned to panic..“What are you trying to do, you killer!” she gasped, her voice shaking with anger and fear.With a burst of strength, she shoved his hand away and sat up, her bac

    “At least say something,” Kristen said as she dragged herself to follow him.“Miss Kristen, I was instructed to ensure you boarded this flight. All your questions will be answered once you arrive,” Mr. Green said, finally stopping near the check-in counters and turning to face her.Kristen’s heart raced as she searched his face for any hint of explanation but found none. Reluctantly, she glanced at the bustling airport around her and muttered under her breath, “Is Mr. Anderson behind this? Has he finally decided to throw me somewhere far away from this world?”Mr. Green gave her a reassuring nod. “Have a safe flight, Miss Kristen. Enjoy yourself,” he said with a slight bow.Kristen mirrored his gesture, bowing lightly. She watched him step aside, his sharp eyes now fixed on her, as if ensuring she wouldn’t make a run for it.The boarding announcement echoed through the terminal, and Mr. Green subtly signaled her to proceed. Kristen sighed, nodded in acknowledgment, and turned to walk t

    SpainLena posed confidently as the photographer clicked the photos, capturing her with the brand's latest products. She held the items delicately, wearing her signature smile, as she knew exactly how to pose for the camera.“That’s a wrap!” the director called out as he clapped his hands.Lena smiled brightly, tossing her hair over her shoulder as the crew began packing up. Her assistant hurried over, holding out her ringing phone.She glanced at the screen, rolled her eyes, and muttered, “Not now,” before grabbing the phone. Without another word, she strutted off toward the washroom...Once inside, Lena quickly checked over her shoulder to ensure no one had followed her. She closed the door.. locked it, and turned the tap on, letting the water run. Holding her phone with both hands, she leaned in close, her face just inches from the screen as she dialled a number.“I told you not to call me,” she snapped.A man’s voice responded on the other end, too muffled to make out clearly.“Do

    He clutched his stomach, doubling over in agony as he stumbled forward. His breaths came in short gasps as he pushed the door open.Still hunched over, he fumbled to lock the door behind him before dragging himself further inside. He stumbled toward the bed with visible effort and let himself fall heavily onto it. His body sank into the mattress as he clutched his wrists.He used his free hand to pull off the mask from his face, revealing his swollen features and a trail of blood slipping down his cheek. His teeth clenched as a sharp hiss escaped, anger simmering beneath the pain.Grabbing at his shirt, he yanked it off, exposing bruises and marks scattered across his skin. Each movement made breathing harder, his chest heaving unevenly.Without wasting a second, he stumbled into the washroom and turned the faucet on. The cool water mixed with the blood on his face, trickling down in streaks as he splashed it repeatedly over his skin.He looked at his reflection in the mirror. His chee

    Mr Green stood confidently at the front of the room, a pointer in his hand, as he tapped the screen displaying a series of flowcharts and diagrams.“And here is the plan...” he said, slightly smiling as he took charge.He paused dramatically, scanning the room as if daring anyone to interrupt.“If the first plan doesn’t go as expected, we’ll be forced to move to the second... or even the third.”He clicked the remote, and the screen shifted to a more complex set of projections. The room was silent except for the faint hum of the projector, and all eyes were on the screen.“Our success depends on precision. Any mistakes will cost us more than just time,” he added, shifting his gaze toward everyone.One of the employees hesitated before raising their hand slightly.“Sir, don’t you think Plan C might..”“Plan C is the last resort. We focus on Plan A and execute it perfectly. Understood?” Mr. Green interrupted curtly.The employee quickly nodded, sinking back into their seat.“Good. Then I

    California“I didn’t spare whoever it was, ma’am. I showed where the power lies, and you don’t....” Mrs Sophia said on the phone as she continued to rant.“Hello… hello… hello… Mrs. Lena? Hello? Oh, I guess the network in Spain is that bad,” Mrs Sophia said as she hung up the call. She placed the phone back in its book. She had a bruise on her forehead and, right after the call, went to continue doing the laundry........SpainLena’s heart pounded as she held the phone in her hands, her eyes wide open.“How did this even happen? Where is Kristen? Did Max get rid of her after I left?” she said as she wondered.She sank back into the plush hotel couch, still holding onto her phone tightly. Her hands trembled as she scrolled through her messages.“I hope Max has finally done what he’s supposed to do. Sent her far away from us........What if she tells him everything…” Lena muttered as her mood suddenly changed for the worse.Quickly, she tapped on her phone and began dialling Max’s number

    He banged the door shut and within a second, he returned with a towel. Without even looking at her, he threw it at her and muttered, “Dry yourself off before you catch a cold.”Kristen caught the towel but glared at him. “You’re calling me reckless? You were the one acting like you had a death wish! I thought you were drowning, you ungrateful jerk!” she snapped.Max stopped in his tracks and turned to face her. “I don’t need you to save me,” he said coldly.“Well, maybe I don’t need you either,” Kristen retorted. “You should have left me to die there since that’s what you want for me.”Max shook his head. “I won’t leave you to have a peaceful death either. I’ll make sure you have a slow, painful one when I discover your true self.”Their eyes met, both breathing hard. Max’s jaw tightened before he turned away abruptly. “Next time, mind your own damn business,” he muttered, walking inside with a dripping wet body.He stormed into the washroom, quickly showered, and dried himself off.

    "Gracious Lord… that's so insane," Max muttered as he looked annoyed.”She's one of the people I sacked out of here, the woman grinned.Max’s jaw tightened. He took a slow breath and looked at her.“I’m sorry,” he said quietly. “I guess I’ll be taking my leave since she's not here”He turned and strode off, his hand still clenched tightly at his side.“Oh, Mr. Anderson, why don't you wait?” the woman said as she rushed after him.Max said nothing, his steps steady as he walked toward his parked car.“She still has her things here though... I can get you her new address, anytime she comes here...” the woman offered, her voice trailing off with a fake sweetness.Max paused…….………Kristen’s head appeared from the hill street, her hands buried deep in her coat pockets as she strode forward.

    "Mr. Anderson, why are we here at your father's..." the man asked as he got down from the front seat, opening the back door.Some guards rushed over, pulled a wheelchair from the boot and tried to help him sit in it."I..." The man reached out to hold the wheels, ready to assist, but Max gestured for him to stop.He drove the chair himself, wheeling away without a word.The man followed closely behind.Max rolled himself into the house and the door shut behind him. Mrs. Julia turned the corner and froze the moment she saw him.“Max…” she said, stunned. “What on earth… what are you doing here… like this?”Max didn’t answer. He kept rolling forward.She walked up to him, still in shock, her voice rising a bit, “You left the hospital? Without telling anyone? Do you know how serious your condition still is?”He glanced at her but didn’t stop. “I’m fine.”“No, you’re not fine, Max… why would you do this? Does your father even know you’re here?”“He does,” Max said, slightly glancing back at

    It was early morning, around 4:30 a.m. The room was quiet, the soft hum of machines was the only sound you could hear.The door opened gently, and Mr. Green stepped in, closing it behind him with a soft click. His eyes looked tired, heavy, as he walked slowly to the side of Max’s hospital bed.Max was asleep, his breathing steady, unaware of his present.Mr. Green stood there for a long moment as he just watched him.He finally spoke with a low and trembling voice. “You grew up right in front of me… stubborn, reckless, but with a good heart.”He paused and swallowed hard.“I failed you. I should’ve known that day… should’ve protected you better.”His eyes welled but he blinked quickly.“I’ve been asked to step away. I won’t be here when you wake up.”He looked at Max one last time.“Stay strong, kid… Don’t let this world eat you up”''I hope to see you in one piece when I return,'' he said and quickly wiped a falling tear.With a slow breath, he bowed down to give his final respect.

    The doctor and Mr. Green rushed into the room. Without wasting a second, the doctor moved straight to Max’s side and grabbed his wrist to check for a pulse.“His pulse is dropping,” the doctor muttered, his brows furrowing deeply as he pulled out a stethoscope and leaned over Max’s chest.“Get the crash cart in here, now!” he barked toward the hallway.Mr. Green stood stiffly beside him, eyes fixed on the monitor as the beeping grew more erratic.“Mr. Anderson, stay with us,” the doctor said firmly as he began chest compression. “We’re not losing him today.”Nurses burst in with equipment, and the room turned chaotic....hands were moving quickly, voices rising with urgency as they battled to keep him alive…The room was in chaos.“Clear!” the doctor shouted.A loud zap followed as the defibrillator pads pressed against Max’s chest, his body jolting on the bed.

    “The number you’re calling cannot be reached at this moment. Please call back later,” the phone said as the nurse dialed the number.She frowned and tried again.“The number you’re calling is currently switched off.”Letting out a soft sigh, the nurse glanced at the paper again. Then she stood up, looked around the hallway, and scanned the area, hoping to spot the man who had given her the number.Holding the paper tightly, she stepped away from the desk, calling out gently while checking each direction, “Sir? Hello? Are you still here?”But there was no sign of him.….……………………..“So happy you decided to come see your aunt after so long,” a chubby Italian-looking woman said as she placed a cup of tea on the table.Kristen nodded, feeling grateful that the woman had accepted her into her home.

She clutched her purse tightly, her face lined with tension.As they neared the hospital wing, Mr. Valtor stepped forward to meet them.“You shouldn’t have canceled your flight back, Erik,” Valtor said.“Come on, Valtor,” Mr. Erik replied, offering a small nod. “We had everything arranged. It’s only right that we come. Max is family.”Valtor exhaled heavily, clearly uneasy. “I appreciate you both, will forever be grateful” he said, reaching out to shake Erik’s hand.Mrs. Julia stood a short distance behind, trying to keep composed, though her hands trembled slightly by her sides. Her eyes were fixed on the hallway ahead, worry etched deep into her features.Beside her, Mrs. Marissa walked slowly.

    The next dayMr. Green sat slouched against the wall, his head resting to the side as his eyes closed. He had fallen asleep just like that, still in yesterday’s clothes. His arms were folded between his legs, as if trying to hold himself together. The hallway around him was quiet and cold, too.“Mr. Green,” the doctor called gently as he walked toward him.Mr. Green stirred awake, rubbed his eyes and tried sitting up straight. His back ached from sleeping against the hard wall, but he didn’t care. “How is he?” he asked quickly with a rough voice.The doctor sighed and folded his arms. “He made it through the night… barely. His vitals have stabilized a little, but he’s still not responding the way we hoped.”Mr. Green blinked slowly. “Is he… conscious?”The doctor shook his head. “No, not yet. His body’s weak. And his kidneys… we may not have much time before we need to act.”Mr. Green looked down at his hands. “What do we do now?”“We need a donor. Fast,” the doctor said quietly. “We’
