"What is your greatest fear?"This was a question Martin posed to Vic during her interview for the position of his bodyguard."I fear bullets. They travel so quickly, and I wish I could intercept one to save a life," Vic had replied.Now, as Martin watched Vic weep over Gray, who had heroically taken the bullet meant for her, the weight of her words hung heavily in the air.Gray was rushed to the hospital without delay. Outside the operating room, Martin and Vic sat on a bench, anxiously awaiting updates on his condition.Martin observed Vic, who had just managed to compose herself. Her eyes were red and puffy, mirroring the swelling on her injured foot."I'll stay here," Martin said gently. "You should go get your foot treated, Vic. You need care too."Vic, however, responded with a different sentiment, "I never thought someone would be willing to take a bullet for me."Martin fell silent, his gaze fixed on her, absorbing the gravity of her realization.Her fingers, stained with bloo
“Cut!” the director called out.The final scene of the highly anticipated season two of the hit movie had finished.“Good job, everyone!”The crew and cast erupted in applause, celebrating yet another incredible project. Victoria, the lead actress, couldn’t contain her excitement as she approached the director.“Thank you so much! I had a blast working with you,” Victoria beamed.“No, thank you! Honestly, this film wouldn’t have been the same without you. I knew from the moment I saw you that you were destined to be a superstar. You’re going to be a huge action star, Victoria Red.”It had been two years since Victoria had woken up from her coma. She still held onto her dream of becoming an actress, but she was puzzled about how she had acquired her fighting skills.‘What did I do before? How did I get this ability?’ Victoria wondered, staring at her hands.“There’s a party happening next week, and our star can’t miss it, got it?” the director said.Victoria nodded in agreement.“Victor
A female bodyguard tragically lost her life while bravely saving her employer's daughter from drowning. It was truly a heartbreaking incident."I heard she was one of Mr. Caws' top bodyguards. It's such a shame she died so young," said one of the embalmers getting ready to prepare her body."Yeah, life can be so unpredictable. We never know who will be around tomorrow. Let’s get back to work; Mr. Caws is waiting for us to finish this up."With that, the two embalmers started the embalming process, making an incision on the right side of the lower neck to drain the remaining blood from the body.As the knife got closer to the skin, one of the guys noticed something strange—a little twitch from the corpse's hand.“Wait a second!”The shout made the other guy stop before he could make the cut.“What’s up?”“I swear I just saw her hand move!”“Are you serious? She’s been dead for seven hours. That can’t be right.”“I’m telling you, I saw it!”He let out a frustrated sigh and checked for a
Vic was bursting with excitement as she made her way back to her home country. The wait to see Gray again was almost unbearable, and she couldn't wait to share the news that she had been given a second chance at life.But first, she knew she had to make a stop.With a bouquet of flowers in hand, she headed to her grave. When she arrived, she was taken aback by the sight of so many flowers.“Wow,” she whispered, counting the arrangements surrounding her resting place.There were both dried and fresh blooms, a clear sign that people often came to pay their respects.“Ah, I see why it’s tough to let go,” she laughed softly, feeling a warm glow knowing so many cared about her. “I wonder which one Gray brought for me.”Whispering to herself, she couldn't shake the worry about how Gray was coping since her sudden disappearance.“I really hope you’re doing okay,” she said. “But honestly, I also kind of hope you’re still feeling sad.”Two conflicting thoughts that meant the same thing. She wa
Vic glanced over at Hunter, who was behind the wheel.She was itching to ask him what he meant when he said he’d take her to where she truly belongs.‘Is it because the Red family considers me part of their real family?’ she pondered.Vic tried to convince herself that Hunter was just saying that because she had formed a connection with the family that took her in.“Can’t you just tell me what you know?” Vic pressed her childhood friend.But Hunter shook his head, “No. I wish I could share everything with you right now, but I have to honor what needs to be honored. I know I can’t just spill everything to you.”His answer left Vic wondering, ‘Did something happen while I was gone?’She couldn’t do anything but only wait.But just a short distance from the Red mansion, an incident occurred.“Damn it!” Hunter exclaimed as his car unexpectedly came to a halt.“Is it broken?” Vic inquired.With a heavy sigh, he replied, “I had this checked by a mechanic just last week. He assured me everyt
While walking in the garden, Victoria heard noisy sounds coming from the gate of the mansion.“What’s the noise about? It’s already hard to rest because of my busy schedule. Geez,” Victoria uttered before walking towards the commotion.Outside the gate, she saw a plain-looking woman who was standing before the guard of the family.“You…!” the guard shouted. "Leave now, or I’ll call the police!"She got curious what happened so she asked, “What’s going on here? It was so loud that I felt like I was in a zoo. What’s going on?”Victoria glanced over at the plain-looking woman and felt a chill run down her spine as she caught the intensity in the woman’s eyes. To her surprise, the lady suddenly looked like she was about to cry.‘What’s up with this woman?’ Victoria wondered. ‘Is she a fan or something?’Confused by the woman’s emotions, Victoria finally asked, “Who are you?”The woman didn’t respond right away. Instead, she managed a weak smile and said, “I heard you’ve lost your memory.”
In the living room, Vic and Victoria were lounging on opposite couches. Mikhail had stepped out to pick up his parents, leaving the two women to chat.As they sat there, Victoria noticed Vic's intense gaze on her. She shot back, “Stop staring at me like that. It’s kind of creepy.”Vic quickly looked away and replied, “Sorry. It’s just a bit strange having you right in front of me.”Victoria smirked, “Is it because I’m too gorgeous?”Vic chuckled, “I mean, I already knew you were good-looking, but you definitely have some confidence.”Victoria frowned, “I didn’t like that. It feels like a dig at me.”"No, I'm not trying to insult you. Actually, I just realized why it was so easy for Mikhail to uncover my secret. You were really a unique person, Victoria," Vic said."Enough with that. Just be honest with me. What’s your real connection to my brother? He’s not the type to cry easily, but you made him sob like a child. Did you two ever date?""That's a strange thing to say. I never though
Rica is the eldest daughter of the billionaire couple, Sabby and Emmanuel. For them, she was a precious gem.“Mom! Dad! I can see the ocean!” Rica energetically pointed to the ocean that could be seen from the shore.“Isn’t it beautiful, honey?” Sabby asked.“It is! It shines like diamonds!” Rica exclaimed and was soon cradled by the strong arms of her father.“I have no debts left, alright? I took you here and we’re quits,” Emmanuel said.Rica squinted her eyes and said, “We still have more games left, Dad. And if I win again, that means, you need to make my wish come true.”“You sneaky kid,” Emmanuel chuckled before tickling her.“Dad! That tickles!”“Guys, be careful,” Sabby warned and soon, she saw the huge ship approaching the deck. “It’s here! Look!”Emmanuel and Rica stopped playing around and looked at the sailing large boat that blossomed right there on the ocean.“Wow! It’s so huge!” Rica exclaimed. “And we’re going to ride there, aren’t we?”Sabby smiled at her daughter and
