After finishing their meal, Kent stood up to clear the dishes, his movements were smooth and tidy. Once he was done, he headed to the bathroom to wash his hands before returning to the ward."Do you want to sleep?" he asked her with a gentle voice, but August pouted her lips and put on a sad expression. "No, I've been sleeping too much since I got here. I don't like this hospital; I just want to go home." Her voice was laced with a whine, she was trying to hide her frustration, but it was not working.Kent walked closer, his eyes filled with understanding. "Come on, babe, you need to be monitored, okay? Just endure it for a little while longer." He said as he tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear.August sighed, and sagged her shoulders.

August nodded her head and smiled a little."Why don't you rest?" Kent
Victor exhaled a long puff of smoke from his cigarette and asked his assistant, "Any news yet?"The assistant shook his head. "No, sir. We haven't been able to reach Franco to confirm the outcome. We have tried various channels to check if it is a success, but it seems like our efforts are being blocked."Victor's face darkened, his expression disapproving. "Incompetent," he muttered, his voice so cold and he looked really angry.The assistant quickly bowed his head and apologized . "Sorry, sir."Just then, Victor's phone rang, breaking the silent atmosphere . He brought out his phone from his pocket and glanced at the screen and saw an unknown number. Without hesitation, he disconnected the call. But the caller persisted, ringing again and again. On the fourth call, he was about to disconnect it again, when he heard his boss' chilling voice. "Pick it up." Victor said coldly as he stared at his assistant.The assistant nodded his head and answered the call, putting it on speakerphon
Anthony pulled up to the restaurant he had booked earlier, and as they arrived, Lisa's eyes widened in surprise at the cozy atmosphere.She gazed up at the sign, which read "Oakwood Restaurant" in rustic letters, and couldn't help but notice the charming wooden accents and lush greenery surrounding the entrance."Wow, this place is so nice," Lisa exclaimed as they stepped inside, her voice filled with admiration.

The next day, Lisa woke up with a smile on her face, she felt Anthony’s hand on her body so she smiled and released herself gently from his embrace.After successfully doing that, she tiptoed and went to the kitchen to brush her teeth and take her bath which she successfully did before going to the kitchen to prepare some light meal for them.Shortly after she left, Anthony woke up from his wonderful sleep. He stretched his hand and was confused for a moment when he saw the unfamiliar house, but he quickly remembered that he was in Lisa’s bedroom.Thinking about Lisa, he stood up and searched for her around the room but he couldn’t find her, he was about to call her when she entered the bedroom.“You are awake”.

Lisa nodded to the security guard, who removed the gag from Leon's mouth. Leon coughed, his eyes fixed on Lisa with a mix of shock, anger, and humiliation. "What are you doing here you bitch?" he growled angrily.Lisa shot back, her words sharp and unapologetic. "You must be stupid for asking that question," she said, her tone dripping with disdain. "You come here, causing a scene, and now you're asking me what I'm doing? You're the one who's been making a fool of yourself you bastard."Leon's face turned redder with rage, but Lisa continued, her words without mincing it. "You should be ashamed of yourself right now. Look at you, a full grown man acting like a child. I really applaud your childishness. You're too shameless and senseless. You are a big joke Mr Miller."Lisa's smirk and words added fire to his ego, his anger was already boiling. He felt like lashing out at her, but the security guards held him tight and gave him a warning.Although he struggled against them, they were t
At the hospital, Kent gently shook August awake, concern etched on his face. "Baby, wake up," he said softly, trying not to startle her. She has been sleeping for a while now.August pouted her lips and whined softly, not wanting to wake up. "Come on, baby, you need to get up," Kent said, his voice firm but gentle, as he helped her sit up.August slowly opened her eyes, still feeling groggy from her long sleep. Kent handed her a glass of water, which she gratefully accepted, taking a sip to clear her dry throat."What time is it?"

She pouted, staring at Kent accusingly.Kent was speechless when he heard this, he chuckled remembering how she had complained and whined when he woke her up. "Sorry babe, let's get you freshened up first."August's expression turned soft, and she said, "I'm hungry."Kent reassured her, "Do
A week later, August was finally discharged from the hospital. That morning, she woke up early, her face radiating joy and excitement. "Babe!" she called out and tapped Kent's shoulder.Kent, who was still sleeping, groggily opened his eyes and stared at his energized wife. "Babe, what's the matter?" he asked, his voice laced with sleep.August pouted her lips and said, "I need to freshen up." Her eyes sparkled with anticipation.Kent nodded his head and checked the time,he was shocked to see it was only 4 am. He facepalmed himself and said softly, "Babe, it's still early.

I will wake you up when it's time."August frowned her face and tried to argue, but Kent's tired voice and gentle tone calmed her down. "I promise, babe, I will wake you up early," he said as he reassured her.After some coaxing, August fi
Meanwhile, the doctor witnessed the exchange between them and was really shocked. He had heard rumors about the family's cold demeanor but thought it was exaggerated. Unbeknownst to him, the rumors were true , they were cold on the outside, but warm with their family.Frank hurried the doctor and said, "What are you waiting for? Discharge her, I want to talk to my daughter." The doctor nodded his head vigorously and quickly discharged August, who gave her father a thumbs up. Frank grinned proudly, leaving the others speechless.As they left the room, Kent spoke up, "We will follow you shortly. Let's check on the driver." Rhea replied, "No problem, son. Be fast about it." Kent nodded his head and took August to the driver's room. After a while, they joined their parents outside.As they stepped outside, they met their parents waiting for them with two cars. "We'll take this one”, Frank said, gesturing to the black sedan, “and you two can use that one," he added, nodding towards the
