Madam Katie paced her room, her worry for Carina gnawing at her insides like a hungry beast. The phone call from her assistant brought a glimmer of relief.

"Carina's luggage is ready for her flight tomorrow morning," the assistant reported.

"Good," Madam Katie replied, though her tone belied her anxiety. "Make sure she has security escorting her."

"Will do," the assistant affirmed before hanging up.

Madam Katie's next call was to Martins. She needed to ensure Carina's safety, no matter the cost.

"Where are you, Martins?" she asked as soon as he picked up.

"At the hospital with Carina," Martins replied, his voice calm but tinged with concern.

"Bring her home immediately," Madam Katie instructed, her voice firm. "I have a bad feeling."

Martins hesitated, concern evident in his voice. "But Carina's fast asleep, and she's been through so much..."

"I don't care," Madam Katie interrupted, her worry overriding any sense of hesitation. "I need her home where I can keep an eye on her."

There was no response.Frantic, Martins checked every corner of the room, hoping to find some clue as to where Carina might have gone. He spotted her phone lying on the bedside table, abandoned and silent. Why would she leave without her phone?Panic rising in his chest, Martins dashed out of the room and down the corridor. He flagged down a passing nurse, his words tumbling out in a rush. "Have you seen a young woman, about this tall, with dark hair?" he asked, gesturing wildly.The nurse shook her head, her eyes widening at Martins' distress. "I'm sorry, I haven't seen anyone matching that description," she said apologetically.Martins cursed under his breath and ran a hand through his hair in frustration. Where could Carina hav

    Martins sat in his car, the weight of what had just happened with Carina heavy on his mind. He rested his head against the steering wheel, replaying the moment their lips had met over and over again in his mind. He couldn't shake the feeling of shock and confusion that had washed over him in the aftermath.How had he let himself kiss her like that? It was reckless, impulsive, and completely out of character for him. He knew he had crossed a line, and now he had no idea how to face her, especially with her departure for the airport looming ahead.Just as Martins was lost in his thoughts, his phone rang, jolting him back to reality. It was Luke, his nephew, calling him. Martins hesitated, unsure if he wanted to answer, but eventually he relented and picked up the call."Hey," Luke's voice came through the line, cheerful and upbeat as always.Martins could feel the tension building in his chest as he responded, his voice clipped and distant.

"What happened between you and Martins?" she asked, her voice tinged with concern.Luke shot her a sharp look, his eyes flashing with irritation.
