Chapter 38

Ava's pov

I would have ignored her word but curiosity got the best part of me, making me turn to her direction. Dr Navia smiled at the eager reaction she got from me and proceeded hinting at more words.

“I bet you still don't believe me but let me tell you, Alessia was Coran's first and his only true love, she was the one that requested for that garden as her birthday gift and Coran agreed. Jessica can testify to what I am saying because they chose and arranged the flowers together,” she took a deep breath and left the stair passage.

I also came down to hear more of what she wanted to say, “Everything was good until Alessia got pregnant for Coran which he denied and broke ties with him completely; some months later, Alessia wanted to abort the pregnancy which finally led to her death. This pained Coran so much that he had to vacate the garden and he also instructed everyone not to near the garden.”

“But I went there and he did nothing to me,” I refuted immediately and this

    Chapter 39Jessica's povI stared through the door at the bunch of girls stealing glances at Dr Luca, who was busy with the patient he was operating on. “Cut,” he called my attention back and I passed the scissors across the thread, we continued this process till he was finally done stitching the wound.All the medical tools we used were dumped in the tray for sterilization while we began to prepare to leave the theater. “Can you adjust my rim for me?” He requested after changing out of the surgical glasses. I leaned closer and pushed his facial rim backward.“Observe the patient’s response before you wheel her to the ICU,” Luca turned and informed one of the nurses before we both left with him walking at the front.Luca went straight to his changing room while I proceeded to the restroom to do my regular girl's business. I dumped the apron and surgical cap inside the bin before I rolled out my long hair out of the tiring bun.We are obliged to make our hair shoulder length or tie it

    Chapter 40Ava's pov“Do you know Alessia?” I dropped the bombshell. I have been trying to take my mind off what Dr Navia said but everything was too real and connected for me to ignore… more so, she also mentioned Jessica's name without actually meeting her in person.Jessica deliberately feigned ignorance and answered, “is she your friend? Do you want me to search for her?” Anger riled up in my chest and I responded in a tensed voice, “I am in no mood for jokes Jessy, who is Alessia to coran?” She went silent over the phone for some time and I could hear her surroundings becoming more silent, it seemed like she was… changing location.“Don't I deserve an answer?”“Can you take a chill pill Ava? I needed to change my location to somewhere more comfortable to talk,” she sharply replied, making me feel a hint of guilt for talking to her like that.I could hear the faint movement of her leg over the phone till she finally stopped in God knows where, “ can you hear me now?” she finally

    Chapter 41Ava's pov My intuition was telling me to go back for the computer but it was too late, coupled with the fact that I was also very tired. I waved off the idea and went inside to sleep.…“You don't want to get late to work and miss the event,”I heard Coran's voice in my head, the voice sounded far away but it managed to alert my sanity.I stretched, groaned and stood up from the bed. Dressed in a six piece suit was coran who was standing at a measurable distance from my bed with his two hands in his pocket.“You heard me this time around, didn't you?”;he asked with a smile.Wait…“That wasn't a dream? Did you actually speak to me while I was asleep?” He nodded and I palmed my face in shyness. I actually thought it was a dream, but it turned out that it wasn't.“This is almost 7;30 in the morning,” he said, taking a quick glance at his wristwatch. His words resonated in my head, then I remembered my design on my computer I forgot in the office. I jumped up and ran all the w

    Chapter 42Ava's povI was beyond shocked when I heard her name, I was too flabbergasted to even take her outstretched hand. Almost immediately, she called my attention back.“Hi, do you mind introducing yourself as well?” She asked, waving her hand at my face.I managed to give a fake smile and I took her outstretched hand in a warm handshake.“Your hand is so soft and cute. I would also have fallen in love with you if I was a guy,” she complimented. I don't know whether she was deliberately hinting at something or she was just genuinely complimenting me.“Thank you, my name is Ava,” I replied, wanting to keep the conversation very Short but It seemed like she already knew me and was just here to keep me in the conversation.“Are you also part of the participants here?” she pestered and I briefly nodded my head in answer.She continued and said, “I am also here to participate, I returned late from abroad so my company has already concluded theirs. Mr Smith was really nice to allow me

    Chapter 43Coran's pov I went back to my office after the discussion with Alessia. Presently, my head is heavy and unsettled because I don't know what my father is hinting at by sending her here.Flashback to my discussion with Alessia…I dragged her straight to a hidden corner in the hallway, when I got to a perfect silent location, I threw her hand off.“What the hell are you doing? Why did my father send you here and What was the discussion you were having with Avy?” I ranted out with a furious blazing red eye.A smirk played on her lips and her innocent looking eye changed to a devious looking one; she slicked her hair to the back and replied “What do you think I am doing?” She made to touch my chest but I was quick to avoid her hand.“Don't touch me with your fucking hand, I will advice you to abort any of the dumb missions you are here for,” I warned strictly but she looked unmoved by my threat.“Do you think you can do anything to me? If you couldn't do anything in the past,

    Chapter 44Ava's povHis statement touched the deepest part of my heart but I managed to mask it with an unfazed expression, “yes, I think I forgot my boundary and I am sorry about that.”His lips quivered as he slowly removed his hand from his pocket, his lashes fluttered with his mouth shaking like he wanted to explain something.I raised my hand to stop him,“No, Don't! we will have a proper discussion after the event; you should prepare yourself for that,” I said and found my way out of his office. I almost collided with a bothered Joe outside the office door, he gazed at me with careful expression and greeted me.My bad temper didn't allow me to reply to his greeting, I rather gave him a secretive eye roll and stormed away. Jessica was still waiting in the conference hall, she stood at a corner as she patiently observed the environment. Just then, the loud speaker erupted with noise, informing all of us participants to go behind the cotton.I went to the corner that I had previou

    Chapter 45Ava's pov “What do you think you are doing? Are you here to fight for your beloved first love?” I asked, placing my hand on my waist. Coran, who pulled me to the dark corner stared at me in awe as he thought of what to say.“Can we not talk about Alessia? She is just part of my past and will always remain my past,” he defended, rubbing his forehead in frustration.I smirked as my eyes locked with his, I don't know where my new found confidence came from but that was what I needed at that moment. I stepped on my toes to match up with his height then I spoke;“So you don't want me to involve her right now. By the way, I am really curious to know how she ended up with my design or is it just coincidence that she told me you gave her a design to present, at the same time I saw you peeking at my tablet in the room. Don't you think you have something to explain?”His mouth dropped down in shock and his eyes bulged in surprise, “I don't understand what you're saying, is this some

    Chapter 46Ava's povMore tears flowed down my face as I heard the pleading of the woman, “please just accept the baby, she has always been ridiculed for being fatherless,” the woman pleaded. The voice isn't really clear because of how chaotic it was recorded so I couldn't really point out who the voice belonged to.“Baby? I never told you I wanted any kids, did I?” Coran's clear voice came out of the pen. It was at this moment the pen fell from my hand.No! I can't take it anymore, Coran's words not only hurt but the tone he used was even worse. I couldn't endure it so I had to switch it off. I was beginning to feel muddle headed and all I wanted right now was to go home but before then, I have to wash my haggard looking face…I splashed a few drops of water on my face then took out rows of wipes to dry it out. Looking at how puffy my under eyes were, I brought out my mini makeup kit to correct them.It took me only a few minutes to correct them, then I went back to the conference h

    Chapter 51Ava's pov.“Won't you invite me in for tea?” He repeated what he already said, standing firm on his word. I nervously scratched my head and opened the door for both of us to enter.“I don't have a men's flip flop around so you have to manage with mine,” I offered him my pink flip-flop which he hesitated to change into.“Nevermind, I will just order some for you later,” I waved off my idea after seeing his hesitation. Just then, he placed a finger on my lips and removed his shoe which he placed at a clean corner beside the blue rack. Then he stepped in the living room entered with his socks.My face dropped in dissapointment and he was quick to notice that, “I am afraid that I might spoil it and you will end up exposing your feet to cold.”He ran his tongue over his lips, making it pinker and brighter under the dim crescent light in the room. He walked over to me and held my shoulder gently then he bent low to whisper something into my ear.“I will feel bad if you catch cold

    Chapter 50Ava's pov Coran rested his hand on his chin and rounded up his statement, “I didn't refute her sentence because I still respected her deeply but she didn't appreciate that enough, she came to me two months after the incident and insisted that I got her pregnant, deep down i never laid with her,” he completed.At that moment, I saw him in an entirely different light. How I wish he had explained his part from the beginning but it's what it is.I held his hand gently even though I couldn't see his face in the red light, then I spoke in a low murmur, “none of this was your fault and you have every right not to hold on to what isn't yours okay?” I rubbed gently on his knuckles and I noticed that he winced.Wait! I switched on the torch of my phone to have a clear glimpse of the spot and to my shock, it was the same place he hit the wall four days ago.“You didn't treat it?” I asked with a firm face while he gave me a shrug, a big smile plastered on his face.“Why?” I questioned

    Chapter 49Ava's pov I choked back on the food in my throat then stared at him with a dumbfounded expression. What did he mean by he is going to explain everything I need to know? He didn't even do that when I needed the explanation.“Should I go ahead?” He asked for permission and I granted him as he expected , I wouldn't even disagree anyways.“Where do you want me to start from?” He asked as he began unwrapping his own set of cutlery. I glanced at him in awe, not totally understanding what he meant by that.Is he actually asking me that kind of question? I wasn't even the one that brought up the conversation.I wiped my mouth with the handkerchief then dumped it in the closet bin.“Maybe the garden or Alessia perhaps,” I stated.His hand unconsciously froze on the fork but he quickly masked it with a proper composure.“About that garden,” he started.“It was the first request that Alessia will make from me. This was how me and Alessia's story started and I promise not to exclude a

    Chapter 48Ava's pov It's been four days since I last saw Coran and also three days since James arrived. He has been very nice to me and we have been visiting everywhere together.“Just try to forget him, you will surely meet a better man,” James repeated the statement he has always always said to me to console me. “Thank you,” I replied with a smile, looking for the right maternity gown to hide my pregnancy perfectly. A mail has been sent to me concerning the results of the final event but I haven't had time to check what the content was.“Maybe later,” I thought loudly.“Are you saying something to me?” James asked and I quickly nodded.I passed through the baby section and a part of me wanted to go there, to admire the cute baby dresses and envelope myself In the kiddies scents oozing from there but I know better not to do that.I sighed with a teary eye and forced myself to look away. ‘The perfect time will come, just take a deep breath’ I reassured myself as I stumbled my way

Dr Navia is also with me in the house but she is busy with the patient in the black room.I have also been following up with his treatment and in the next few months, he should be fully awake.These were all the bothering thoughts running through my mind until the loud alarm rang from my phone.‘who is that?’ I thought as I held my phone high, checking who the caller was.“Father?” I called out in shock because it's been very long since he last called. He would rather visit me or send his personal assistant to me.“Are you there?” That was the first thing he asked as soon as I picked the call.“Yes, father.”“Are you deliberately playing me? Are you toying with me?” He asked, making my heart jump in panic.Has he discovered the secret? Did he already know that Ava isn't pregnant?I cleared my throat and
