Marietta’s POV

I was quickly discharged from the hospital.

Luckily for me, the injuries I sustained didn’t take long before they healed.

And yes, I’m back to work.

As for the stranger, I couldn’t meet him again.

All I knew was that he was the one who had rescued me that day.

What isn’t clear to me is why he was always there to prevent me from harm.

Am I starting to feel something for him? I’m not sure, what it was.

I mean, it’s only normal for anyone to fall for their superheroes.

Just like in novels.

“The Blumhouse productions–”

“What about them?” I asked, aiming towards my office.

“They said they will only partner with us. If only we can join hands with the Sterlings and Whitmore for the ongoing AI movie production,” Clara replied.

“What do you think?” I stared at Clara.

“At this stage, if we refused to join hands with them, the company might crumble,” Clara answered.

She is right. Everyone who had supported this acting firm had started to withdraw.

Pacing about, she stood firm. “I must have been so stupid. How come I overlooked that?” “Bella, I’m sorry,” I stuttered.“When did you find out?” She asked. “Last week,” I answered. “Seriously Marietta. What were you thinking? I’m your best friend.” she said, wiping off my tears.“I don’t want to scare you. And I don’t want to die now, Bella.” I burst into laughter. “What are your chances?” Bella asked, swallowing hard.“The doctor said it's fifty-fifty chance,” I stuttered.“Oh, Etta my dear,” Bella patted my back.“You will undergo the surgery. In my hospital, very soon.” Bella picked up her bag and aimed towards the door.“Bella, the doctor said I might not survive it,” I cried out.“So you want us to sit and do nothing?” Bella questioned.“Bella I can die,” I repeated.“Get a grip on yourself, girl!” Bella lashed out.Motioning to

    Marietta’s POV“What do you mean by that statement?” I challenged myself.With my eyes bored into his, I tried to contemplate where we’d had an encounter before.But I couldn’t seem to remember any.Yes, except for the day he rescued me and I found myself lying in his bed. With my clothes on, actually. “Work with me. And I promise to pay double of whatever it is my father has promised,” he said.Pushing the documents to me. He relaxed back into his chair.“And if I refuse?” “I’ll still be here to help you up,” he replied.“Why?” I questioned.“Stay away from my brother,” was all he could say.Jackson, who, under the pretense, has been my ally.Through thick and thin he has helped me. Days I felt like giving up. He was my confidante. Why should I pick a stranger who confessed he was his brother over him?“You can think about it. You have three days to do that,” he said.Getting up to his feet. He made his way out.But just as he was about to leave. He paused. “That night…I didn’t d

    Michael's POVThree days ago. I remembered asking the doctor what exactly was wrong with Etta. But seeing her collapsing on Clara's hand. Something is definitely wrong. “Excuse me–” “You are excused,” Jackson lashed. But that was the least of my problems. I raced down to the hospital where Marietta was admitted the other day she fainted. Soon I was able to meet with the doctor in charge of her the day she was rushed down. “Doctor, is there something I should know?” I questioned. “Nothing. She will be fine,” he shrugged. “Doc?” I reached out again. With my wrist clenched and my knuckles turning white. I asked again. “She has a tumor on the left side of her brain.” He confessed. I'm not someone to use force on people. But I didn't have a choice. “What do you mean she has a tumor?” I stuttered. I don't know how to explain to Marietta that I'm so sorry. That I want to be a part of her life. I know the pain she felt three years ago. I'm genuinely sorry. I just want to be–

I stuck my ears to the door.I could hear flashes of the camera and murmurings.Just then, my phone rang. It was Bella.“Bella, what’s up?”“Have you checked your phone to see the news?” she inquired.“You know how much I hate the internet. What’s going on?” I questioned impatiently.Soon a message appeared on my phone, and I quickly rushed to check it out.THE WHITMORES ARE FINALLY BACK TOGETHER AFTER FOUR YEARS OF SEPARATION. “What’s going on girl?

But before I could say one more word, I was met with a slap.For a minute, I could hardly hear any sound. I felt myself go deaf for a second before I heard the sound of a heel.“Where’s my daughter? Please don’t hurt her! She’s just four years old,” I pleaded.But I was met with another deafening slap. “And that is none of my fucking business!” A female voice replied aggressively.Wait a minute. I think I know that voice.It has been my greatest nightmare. One of those that made my life a living hell for years.I spat some blood out, before swallowing hard. “Katty,”“Is that you?” I asked, stuttering.Then came her mocking laughter.

I was yet to recover from the kiss and the whole emotional thing that just happened. “I'm sorry,” Albert stuttered and left in a haste. “Sunshine,” I said, running towards Valerie. Checking her out to see if she has a cut. “Are you okay?” I asked repeatedly. I hugged her tighter as I thank God for keeping her safe. I thought I was never going to see her again. “Mommy, I wanna go home,” Valerie cried. “I wanna see daddy,” she added with some tears rolling down her cheeks. “Mommy, I'm scared.” She continued. Wiping off the tears from her cheeks. I stared into her eyes. “Listen baby. We'll go home okay. I promise,” I said, pecking her forehead. Finally turning towards the guards. I summoned my courage. “Can I have my phone? I need to leave,” Just after demanding for my phone. I was met with silence as no one
