The psychiatric hospital was already near the coffee shop where Paige was so Serene simply walked to the shop. As soon as she entered, Paige waver at her and she walked to the space where her friend was already seated. Seeing her best friend, Serene fixed a beautiful and rat smile on her face and sat across her friend. "Hey, how are you!" Paige uttered with a pleasant smile when she saw Serene smile. "I am good" Serene answered. "I can see that" Paige said and she chuckled. Serene looked at her and raised a brow. she could not tell how her best friend was just so dramatic. "See, I escaped from the set today so that I could see you! Yesterday, you refused to tell me anything but, you know that you have promised to spill today so, so what have you been up to lately and where were you throughout yesterday?" Paige asked immediately she had the chance. Serene heard this and arched her brows helplessly. At that point, Serene knew that she could no longer hide anything for her best fri
"Ha, it seems the kiss did happen" Paige said and laughed happily. Serene really wanted to beat up her best friend but she could not. She realized that she had fallen into the hands of Paige and Paige had used her expression to attack her. She pouted and was very unhappy."What's with your expression? Was he not good enough?" Paige snickered and ignored the glare in her best friend's eyes. Even if Serene was going to beat her up that moment, she won't stop until her gossipy self was satisfied. Then, she widened her eyes and gasped, "don't tell me that your first kiss was better than this one and it made you angry!" Paige whispered. "Paige!" Serene could not take it anymore and she yelled. The people in the coffee shop stopped and glanced at her, she quickly lowered her head and mouthed an apology, her face flushed with embarrassment as she gritted her teeth. "That was my first kiss!" She retorted amidst gritted teeth. Paige chuckled, she could almost hear the sound of her best fri
The two got to the hospital and entered the ward where Serene's brother was staying. A nurse was just attending to him and they stood by the side while they watched him receive his treatment patiently. After a while, the nurse was done, she greeted the girls before walking out. "Jordan, look how energetic you are today!" Paige voiced out and jumped beside the boy's bed. He smiled and he nodded at her before looking at his sister. "Sister," he voiced and Serene smiled at him, she also came forward and stood beside his bed. She looked at him closely and just as Paige had said, his cheeks that were usually white and bloodless appeared rosy and his eyes held brightness and life, the machines that were connected to his body also walked actively and everything seemed to be fine. "How are you doing?" Serene asked in a soft voice as she looked at her dear little brother. "I am fine, the doctors are attending to me regularly now" he answered. "Mhm, that is good, I am sorry that I could no
"It is okay, soon, I believe the doctors will find a compatible bone marrow for you and you can have your surgery soon. I don't wish for much in life buy, I want you to be fine" Serene voiced. "I know," Jordan said and lowered his eyes. He really did not know what made his sister love him so much but he knew that his sister cared for him the most in the world. Although he had a timely disease and could die at any time, his sister still took her time to care for her. He could not forget how his sister had rejected a chance to further her studies under the tutelage of the best fashion designer in France just to be with him because there was no other person that could stay with him. He saw himself as a burden to his sister, she had done so much for him and he could not do anything in return. There had been times that he wished he could die… maybe if he was no more, his sister would be able to have a chance to live her life as soon as he was forgotten.However, knowing that his sister
"The bride was fake…" The words that came out from Steve's mouth resounded in the secretary's head, for a moment, he froze and glanced at his boss. "You… boss, are you playing on my intelligence?" He blurted out finding it hard to concentrate on driving, his gaze drifted to his boss at often times. Steve moved his brows and said nothing but, his expressionless face was enough of proof that he was speaking the truth. The secretary nearly choked on the information. "This…" James was left speechless after he found out about what happened to his boss. If he had not heard those words from Steve himself, he would never believe it and although it was the man that told him, he still had a hard time accepting the piece of information. He was so shocked that his boss's bride was switched and no one even found out on that day. He was sure that it was the model that he saw but on second thought, it could have also been that the person wore a mask too. He looked through the mirror and was ab
Serene sat absentmindedly in from of the dressing table, her eyes glared at her reflection in the mirror expressionlessly. She was not exactly looking at herself but it seems more like she was lost in the space. A wooden comb was in her hand and she brushed her hair in a daze. She was rather slow and sluggish and no one knew what was in her mind. "Beep beep…" it was the familiar sound of her phone that drew her back to reality. "Ah!" She snapped out of her reverie and dropped the comb on the table. She looked around for her phone and when she saw it, she picked up the call that came through. It was a call from Paige. "Hello, Rene!" Paige's sweet voice rang out through the speaker of the phone and it feel on Serene's ear. Just as usual, Paige had her pleasant and happy go aura that could even be felt over the phone. "Hi, Paige" Serene answered, she looked away from her reflection in the mirror and pressed the phone closer to her ear. She was trying to put all of her attention on th
Serene felt her throat was dry and patched, she placed the book that she was reading on the table and stood up. She pushed the door of the room and walked out of the room. She picked her steps and walked in the direction of the kitchen. She grabbed a cup from the cabinet on getting to the kitchen and poured warm water into the cup. Serene lifted the cup to her lips and sipped the water slowly. Just then, she heard the sound of the door bell and her brows arched slightly. She was not expecting anyone and neither did Steve tell her about anybody's arrival either. She thought to ignore the sound of the bell at first but the person at the door was quite persistent. Serene carefully placed the glass of water on the table and walked out of the kitchen. She reached the door and first peered through the security camera to see who it was that was by the door. She was being careful because at the moment, she was using Amy's identity. If it was someone that she knew, she would not need to hid
Just as soon as she donned on the pearl earrings that came with the dress, she heard the sound of a knock on the door. She hurried threw away the thoughts in her head and kept her phone in the purse. She pinched the sides of the dress, lifted it and walked out of the room. Serene opened the door and saw James who had come to receive him. He bowed slightly when he saw her and then lifted his head until his eyes fell on her face. Seeing the familiar and unfamiliar face before him, he was stunned speechless, his jaw fell and for a brief moment, he could not find any words to say to her. "Miss Ser– Amelia?" He coughed lightly. At that point, he had no idea on how to address her. He was so shocked that a person can switch appearance so easily. This trickery that was played on his boss had been well planned out that even he could not tell the difference. He could not help but wonder what his boss's thoughts would be at this point. Serene had no idea of what the Secretary was thinking in
