Coran's pov

“What is the latest report?” I asked Joe who was standing beside my chair inside my office.

He adjusted his rim and looked very hesitant to speak about his new findings, “go ahead, I am ready to hear it.”

He coughed lightly and replied, “the current report I got was that she had flown out of the country a few days ago.”

I felt a light squeeze in my heart and I let out a sad smile, “everyone leaves at the end. Anyways, I am happy that she is now free from me,” I muttered and returned my gaze back to the file I was working on.

“But Boss…” Joe called and trailed off, waiting for me to give him a go ahead. I stared at him and nodded for him to say whatever he wanted to say.

“If you cherish her so much, why did you let her go like that? Why did you hurt her and push her away like that?”

If I say that wasn't the question I was expecting from him, I would be lying and yes, I already prepared the answer in advance.

He enrolled me into a textile design academy and I have been doing very great.The moments I spent with him were literally the best moments of my life. He is very caring and attentive to every little detail but despite all these, I can't help but feel guilty for abandoning Gary. Since the day that Coran snatched him off my hand, I don't know where he is nor do I know his whereabouts, which has been a burden on my chest.“ I don't want to leave you as well but I have to search for my friend, I can just leave him like that. I hope you understand,” I explained for the last time while James answered with a pout.“ Do you think I should follow you back? I don't want

    Ava's pov The flight took a long hour and by the time we arrived, it was already dark everywhere. I dragged my luggage behind me while trying to reach my phone inside my pocket.But after lots of inconvenient trials, I gave up and relaxed till I got to the cab I booked. The driver helped me put my load in the car trunk while I settled down In the back seat, waiting for him to join me.My hand fumbled with my jacket, searching for my phone before I finally found it, I searched through my call logs and I finally stopped when I saw the particular contact I was searching for.“Hello babe,” Jessica picked up after the first ring.“Hi, where are you?” I asked, making sure to sound as nonchalant as possible since I didn't tell her that I was traveling back to Italy. It was meant to be a surprise for her.“What is it? Why are you asking where I am? Do you have something for me?” She replied in an auspicious tone, almost getting suspicious.“Why does it seem like you are on the road? The back

    Ava's pov “Why didn't you tell me you were returning back? Did you really fool me?” Jessica asked as she dragged me along to their resting room. We settled in her space while I brought out her cake.“You got me this? Aren't you such a sweetheart?” She said with a shriek as she begam admiring the beauty petal design on the cake. I handed the boba tea to her as well and that heightened her joy.She cheerfully cut the cake and handed me a thin potion. As soon as it landed on my tongue, I felt a sudden need to throw up and I rushed out to a nearby toilet. I released all that I have in my bowel there.After I was done, I splattered a handful of water on my face to calm me down and just then, Jessica walked in with a suspicious gaze.“ What is wrong with you? Why did you suddenly vomit? Did you eat anything strange before you left your house?” She asked simultaneously and I gave her a head shake which wasn't really a definite answer.“ Can you say something? This doesn't guarantee an answe

    Coran's povI heard a heavy fall from the other end while Jessica remained silent, “Hello, Are you there? Can you hear me?” No sound came which meant that she wasn't with the phone. I glanced at Luca who was seated beside me and I gave him a look that demanded an explanation from him.“I am not there as well, don't give me that look,” he shrugged and picked up his phone. He typed in some things there and waited a bit for the person's response. Minutes later, his phone chimed in a sign that message just entered.He picked it up, read it, then showed it to me, “Miss Jessica is currently with a patient, it seemed that the lady fainted or had a sudden panic attack,” the message read.I stood up in a go and picked up my jacket but before I could move, Luca used his hand to hold me back.“What do you think you are doing? You shouldn't let your emotions take over you; Do you want to sell Jessica out or what will make you suddenly visit the hospital not to talk of the particular ward that she

    Coran's pov “Coran, your father is waiting for you at home,” Luca said, looking me in the eyes. An unknown tiredness instantly washed over me as my head suddenly became filled.I messaged my forehead lightly, then I asked, “What did he say he wanted? He rarely visits unless there is an emergency,”“He didn't say anything, he just told me to divulge a short piece of information,” I nodded at him to go ahead then he said“Your father said; Do you know you can't protect that girl forever? And you shouldn't forget the agreement,” I already knew he will bring up something about the agreement even before luca disburses his statement.“Thank you. you can leave but can you call Jessica for me on your way?” Jessica arrived in a jiffy and entered the room. I quickly explained the situation on the ground to her, making her know the reason why I had to urgently attend to my father.“I don't know when I will be back but you can contact me if anything serious comes up,” with this instruction, I l

    Coran's pov.I politely exchanged a handshake with her then I excused myself, “I have an urgent matter to attend to now, I hope you won't mind.”Dr Navia shook her head and responded, “Oh, that's fine. I will also take a nap before I visit the patient,” Joe and a few men that were around surrounded her luggages and helped her with them while I entered the car and stepped on the pedal all the way to the clinic.I know that with the speed I drove, a hefty sum would have been added to my tab but who cares? All I want is just to set my gaze on Ava.I pulled up in the car park and as usual, I found my way to the ward room where Ava was now awake and was facing the opposite direction. I slowly walked in, minding each and every footstep of mine so that I wouldn't end up alerting her. Just then, I felt a hand tug at my shirt from behind. The person turned out to be Jessica who instantly placed her hand on my lips to shut me up.I glanced at the clueless Ava before following Jessica out for d

    Ava's pov.“Here is your supplement, make sure you take it daily so that you will be strong enough to handle this pregnancy,” Jessica said and passed me a bag full of medicines.I thanked her and kept it in a safe space, knowing fully well that Coran would soon be here to pick me up. He left in the evening after we finalize the contract agreement, with the promise to return very early this morning.Jessica gave me a peck then prepared to leave, her hand was already on the knob when she stopped and returned back to my side with a baffling frown on her forehead.“I know you are still mad at me for keeping many things from you and I am willing to explain everything to you anytime you are ready. Also, I don't think keeping this pregnancy away from Coran is a good decision on your path, why don't you tell him so that he can protect you two?” She suggested.Truthfully, Jessica's action pained me even though I have been trying very hard to forgive her but I am still feeling skeptical about t

    Ava's pov With a creased eyebrow, I glanced at the extra cheerful woman before switching my questioning gaze back to coran who just winked at me.I swallowed back my breath then i proceeded inside, totally ignoring the woman since I couldn't match up with the negative energy surrounding her.“You could have at least replied to her greetings,” Coran said as soon as he dropped my bags in a safe corner. I don't know whether he just wanted me to be polite or he is supporting the girl but anyone it is, I chose to ignore him.“You need to see how cute you look right now, I think I should sign up for your feisty side,” he teased with my face turning crimson red. I was still trying to hide the fact that I was blushing when he spoke again, “ Aren't you so cute with your red face? You look like a squishy adorable doll,”If he was trying to make me laugh then he won because I didn't hesitate to show all my perfect dentition. I picked up my flip flop and threw it at him which he dodged perfectl

I don't think he will be willing to do it for free though,” Dr Navia tried to convince me but I wasn't having it.By the way, What can Chris connection be with Brogan hypnotizer’s antidote? Also, what if he doesn't know anything about it?“I think you got the wrong person, Chris surely can't know the location of the antidote,” I refuted, not willing to admit the fact. I could hear the low chuckle of Dr Navia over the phone and somehow, that made me feel embarrassed.I fluttered my lashes while waiting for her to proffer me with another solution, truthfully she did.“You can ask Alessia though, who knows whether she will be willing to ask Chris in your place,” she said and ended the call without waiting for me to ask more questions. Alessia as how? How can she help me to convince Chris? Dr Navia definitely knows something that I don't know I resigned and brought the phone down from my ear, I stared at the

    Chapter 91Coran's pov “Why aren't you answering me? Are you angry at me?” She pouted and raised her body high to adjust the collar of my shirt. I remained fixed to the point… shocked and surprised.My sense went blank for a long time before it finally occurred to me to inform Luca that she was awake, I texted him and dropped the phone back on the bedside table. I sat down in silence, gently observing all the strange attitudes she was giving me.I was secretly praying for Luca to hurry up but it still took him several minutes before he came around, he came in with Jessica and did some diagnosis on her while I walked around the room… engrossing myself in nervousness.I was cracking my knuckles at intervals, hoping she was well and not what Luca previously explained. After several hours of blood tests and other forms of tests that I don't even know, Luca faced me and cleared his throat.“We have done a brain scan on her and I am sorry to inform you that…” he sniffed as he trailed off.

I staggered backward and fell on the seat behind me, I bit my lips tightly and threw a punch to the air.Why do all these things keep happening? Why can't we just go and vacation, do a proper wedding and sleep warmly in each other's arms? Why does life keep throwing heavy things at us?I tightened my knuckle till it became red then I faced Luca, extended my trembling h

    Chapter 89Coran's pov I felt very happy after Ava was announced as the winner but instead of the excitement I was expecting from her when she showed up from the back of the stage, she was rather looking clueless and surprised.Didn't Jessica say that this has been her long life wish?True to the thought that came to my mind, “What is happening?” Ava asked and everyone in the hall bursted into long laughter, it wasn't that of mockery but that of fun. The judge pulled her into a corner and began whispering something to her ear.She took some time to process it before she jumped up and began to tear up, she looked genuinely happy and overwhelmed but I can say that I am happier not only because I supported her in achieving her long dream but also, it will help boost our company's stock and I wouldn't be needing Athena's help any longer.That way, I killed two birds with a stone… I wouldn't lose Ava and the company's stock price will stop dropping. Ava was still on the stage, shaking an

    Chapter 88Ava's povI shivered slightly as he placed his cold palm on my bare stomach, we stared into each other's eyes and he nodded to reassure me. I don't know why but I suddenly felt uneasy with everything.“Can I just leave? Can I go home and not witness it?” I asked In a shaky and resigned tone, the effect of my pill was gradually wearing off and I could feel my body weakening from inside.He held my arms and looked at me softly, then he spoke with a soothing voice, “let's just leave things as they are then, I will try to check with the host and ask whether you can leave,” he said and let me go. I walked soullessly out of the tent, dragging my feet back to the dining room.“You are back, where did you go?” Athena asked like we were familiar, I gave her a long piercing gaze before hissing at her.I definitely won't allow her to be part of my worry, I brought out my phone and began to chat with Jessica. We spent lots of time chatting that I didn't even know when Coran joined us.

    Chapter 87Ava's povI kept staring at the gorgeous girl that was laughing loudly amidst her other two friends, Coran's hand that was placed on my shoulder fell and I didn't need to check to know that we were probably staring at the same person.“Isn't that the girl…” before I could complete my statement, Coran had walked away from me and was walking towards the girls.“Coran, Coran,” he paused briefly but it only took him a few seconds before he continued to walk to where he was going. I felt thrilled and awed at the same time.What the hell is happening? I stared around in confusion, trying to register what just happened. Is it probably a prank?“Ma'am,” I heard a tiny voice squeak, then I sighted Emily running to me. She looked very excited, like she hadn't seen me in a long time.She hugged me tightly, making me smile at how childish she was behaving.“Did you miss me that much?” She hid her face in my arm as she began dragging me towards the dining area where others were seated.

Si Chen got her a bikini set but I instantly stood up and went against the idea. I don't want her appealing curves to be revealed anyhow. He laughed it off and gave her a more conservative dress which finally sat well with me.He brought out his scissors, did some adjustments to the dress and finally, he stood up to admire the beautiful masterpiece he just created for her.“Please can I get a picture for my magazine? She looks so beautiful?” Si Chen requested, almost going on his knee. Ava's face had turned red and she was also fidgeting with her nails, that was when I finally interjected into their discussion.“She will only do that if you pay her and that is a million dollars for three pictures,” I negotiated with him, knowing fully well that he was worth more than that. Si Chen's face lit up and he didn't t

I greeted him warmly and opened the door for all of us.The doctor was recommended by Luca and personally, I have not met him before.We exchanged pleasantries all over again then I handed the file Luca said to give him to him, he collected it and thanked me then he baded us goodbye.After he left, I assigned a room to everyone while I decided to share a room with Ava so as to keep her within my monitoring. Since everyone were tired from the long trip to Paris, we all retired to our room and called it a night …Morning,I got a message from the officials notifying me of the first day event which is for all of us to gather round a beach, there wouldn't be any form of competition since it was just a form of relaxation for all of us.I didn't bother to even wake Ava up, talkless of rushing her since it was the official time for the event, I

    Chapter 84Coran's pov I slept longer than my usual routine, knowing that I am with my beloved. I didn't even have the intention of waking that early but the constant tapping from Luca made me growl and stretch my stiff body“When did you become a patient as well?” He asked and I stared at him cluelessly. He used his eye to pass the meaning across to me and I hissed when I grabbed what he meant.“I have always been a patient, so far it's beside my sweetheart,” I said and Ava gushed with a pink face.“You can keep all those lines for later, we have to diagnose her and administer her drugs now,” he said, flicking the injection shot in his hand. I reluctantly moved from the bed in order to give them space.Luca and Jessica awkwardly moved around as they tried to do all their medical gibberish that I don't understand. It took them few minutes before they did their job.“You guys can continue now!” Luca teased as he stepped away from Ava, I gave him a stern threatening gaze but he doesn't
