[ Mavis's POV ]I came down from my car after I packed it in the garage. Denise wasn't with me, because I took her home, and left the house saying I have somewhere important to go. I didn't have an important place to go to, I only lied to Denise, because I didn't want her to find out the surprise I had for her.I saw the phone Denise was using when she dropped it beside me last night. It was old, and the screen of the phone had so many cracks on it, and that's why I decided to get her a new smartphone, at least she will no longer use her cracked phone anymore. I also got her a brand new laptop, not because I didn't want to share mine with her, but I just wanted her to have her own laptop, so she can communicate with the people she'd love to talk to.After I got her a laptop and a brand new phone, the next thing that came to my mind was getting her mom a laptop too. At least Denise can always video call her family anytime she wants to, because I know she misses them so much.I told Eth
[ Denise's POV ]The moment I felt Mavis's fresh breath on my face, I had this urge to kiss him, and when I saw he was trying to move away from me, I grabbed his collar and kissed him. I was sitting in the kitchen cabinet, so it was easy for me to reach for his lips. Mavis didn't kiss me back at first, I guess he was shocked that I kissed him, but after he came from his world of surprise, he reciprocated the kiss.I don't know what came over me, but all I could say I was enjoying the sweetened taste of Mavis's lips. I remembered when Mavis first kissed me just to spite Jake, and I was so mad at him for kissing me. I even had to brush my teeth countless times just to come off the taste of Mavis's lip, but here I am kissing him, like his lips were producing milk.As for Jake, I haven't heard from me ever since he hugged me, and left Mavis's house. Well I no longer care about him, he is a past I want to forget.I wanted to break the kiss, but I didn't know what was holding back. It was a
[ Denise's POV ]I rushed inside the hospital panting so heavily. Becca has informed me she was in the hospital, and needed someone by her side. I and Becca might not be close, but I can't just ignore her when she needs me.I got the ward number Becca was admitted in, and I saw her laying on the bed. Her head was bandaged and she has lots of bruises on her face, especially her eye area, which looked reddish and swollen."Becca" I said, approaching her."Denise" Becca called my name breaking into tears."What happened to you Becca?" I asked, sitting beside her."I am sorry I called you Denise, but I have no one to call except for you, my family isn't picking my call, because they see me as a disgrace" She said crying, and I rubbed her shoulder, trying to console her."It's fine Becca. What happened to you, why are you in such a state?" I asked, wondering why she has so many bruises, because the last time I saw her, she wasn't this way.Becca sniffed back her tears, so she could talk, a
[ Mavis's POV ]I left the house early, not because I was mad at Denise. I am trying to figure out why she kissed me and ran away, but it clearly didn't mean l was mad at her. I enjoyed the kiss, so there was nothing to get mad about. The reason why I told Denise I was going to come late today was because today happens to be the death anniversary of Ava, making it three years that she left this world. I told Ethan about it, and he promised to look after the company till I am back.Ava is an orphan who lost her parents at a young age, she has only an old aunt, who stays in a very far end of America, and that's why I wake up early, so I would be able to arrived at her house on time, and that's the reason why I told Denise I will be home late.Ava's aunt was happy to see me, because up until now, I still come for her niece's death anniversaries. Ava wasn't a pure citizen of America. Her dad was from Korea while her mom was a citizen of America. Ava's aunt was from Korean too, so her deat
[ Mavis's POV ]A part of me left my body after Leo informed me that Denise is locked inside an elevator in my company, and she is unable to get out. How did that happen? The entire elevators in my company were working perfectly, because I always make sure the maintenance department looks after it. So how on earth did one of the elevators stopped working? But this wasn't the time to ask a question, Denise needs me, and I must save her. Denise is always traumatized anytime she can't find her way out of a room or close doors. I have to save her before anything bad happens to her. I don't know how I am going to do it, but I am going to save her. I entered my car, and drove to my company in great speed, not minding the pedestrians or vehicles on the road. My heart was seeking in fear as I drove to my company.I got down from my car, and quickly entered the elevator, leading to where Denise was taking her training from Beatrice and her team, but the elevator was not working. The engineeri
[ Denise's POV ]The sobbing sound of my cry filled the whole elevator. The elevator was dark, and as such I couldn't see anything. I was shaking in fear, and the reason why I haven't run out of breath is because of the thought of how my Mom and Angela are going to feel if I die. But I was slowly running out of breath, wishing someone could come to my rescue. The incident of how I got locked up in a restroom toilet, and how fire penetrated inside the toilet I was in, came flashing back at me. This always happens anytime I can't get out of closed doors.I have survived it, but this time, I don't think I will be able to survive, because no one is going to come to my rescue. I am locked up in an elevator, and there was no way anyone could break the door of the elevator, just to save me. I thought of my mom, Angela, and my best friend, Bella. These three people are the most important people in my life, and I am sure they are going to be in pain, if they find out I am dead. I tried holding
[ Mavis's POV ]I sighed as the nurse was treating my arm. I sustained a cut on my arm when I fell down to the elevator Denise was locked in. I didn't know I sustained a cut on my arm, until we got out of the elevator. My mind was so occupied with being there for Denise, that I didn't feel any pains in my arm. I didn't want to treat it at first, but Denise kept insisting I had it treated, so I had no other choice but to go with her to the hospital, but on the condition that she gets treated too. She kept saying she was alright, but I needed the doctor to confirm if she is indeed okay like she claimed."She just needs some rest" The doctor said, and I made sure Denise was given a VIP ward inside the hospital.She kept saying she didn't need a VIP ward, but I didn't listen to her and went ahead with it, and she had no choice, but to comply with me. It didn't take up to two minutes before Denise slept, because I told her I was going to get myself treated, only if she takes a nap.When t
[ Mavis's POV ]I was twenty three years old at that time Stephanie celebrated her 18th birthday party. I only attended the party because Leo has forced me to. He didn't want to attend the birthday party because he had booked a lady he was going to be spending the night with that day."Just ditch this lady, and attend your sister's birthday" I said to him, and Leo shook his head, stubbornly."I can't loose this chance of fucking this lady, Mavis. Stephanie also sees you as her big brother, and I am sure she won't be sad if I don't attend her birthday party" Leo said."So you are just going to ditch your sister's birthday all because of a girl?" I asked."Yeah, but I am going to make it up to her. Stephanie loves money a lot, so I am going to use that to bribe her, but please attend her birthday party, so she won't feel sad that her big brothers didn't attend her birthday" Leo said, pleading with me.Stephanie has always considered me as her brother, so I knew how sad she was going to
[ Denise's POV ]I had a happy smile as I walked towards the altar to meet the most handsome man in the world, waiting for me to tie the knot with him for the second time.Mavis and I decided to get married again, because a lot of things have happened to us over the past few months. I have been in so many dangers, Audrey came into our lives pretending to be Ava just to separate Mavis and I. Ethan also tried to kill me, which led to me having miscarriage, and forgetting who my lovely husband was to me, so that's why we decide to get married again to start all of again, and this time we are getting married because we love each other and not because we didn't have an option.It hurts losing my child, but I know that Mavis and I are going to have our own kids now that we are getting married again. The grand hall of our wedding was top notch, and it wasn't a simple wedding like our previous wedding.Mavis assured that this time around, our wedding was going to be done in a glamorous way, ev
[ Mavis's POV ]I haven't visited Denise ever since I left the hospital the day she told me to. I was scared that she might be mad at me if she saw my face. Even if I miss her so much, I kept restraining myself from going to her. I have called Bella several times and she said Denise was still the same, and didn't remember who I was. I don't concentrate on work because my head is always occupied with the thought of Denise. It's just a week since Denise had her partial amnesia, but I have lost so much weight, because food doesn't pass through my throat no matter how delicious it tastes. It was as if Denise was my reason for living.I love Denise so much, more than my own life. If my wealth could bring back her lost memories, I don't mind giving all of it out, just so I can have her back in my arms. As for the bastard that calls himself Ethan, he is already paying for his sins in jail, and I made sure he never had it easy in prison. I was trying to focus on work, when the doorbell rang,
[ Mavis's POV ]I held my face after Denise slapped me. I wasn't expecting her to slap me, and that's why my eyes widened in shock when she slapped me. "Why did you slap me, Denise?" I asked as my eyes became misty."Because you punched my boyfriend" She answered, looking at me with so much hatred, and the hatred in her eyes broke my heart into a billion pieces."I punched him because he is trying to kiss you, Denise. How can I allow him to kiss my wife" I said, allowing my tears to fall down from my eyes.Denise looked at me, and the hatred in her eyes was slowly fading away. She didn't say a word to me, she only looked at me, and even if I wasn't in her heart, I knew she was feeling something for me, even without remembering who I was to her. I could feel it in her eyes because of the way she was looking at me right now.I tried going close to her, but she stepped backward. "I am sorry I slapped you, I shouldn't have done that, but can you leave me alone? I want to be alone" Denise
[ Mavis's POV ]The way Denise was hugging Jake ignited so much pain inside my heart, and she made it worst by saying she missed Jake. I was wondering why she hugged Jake and tell him that she miss him, but then I remembered Denise only remembers half of her memories, and that memory she remembered, Jake was in it.With a heartbreaking heart, and not minding that I was injured, I stood up from the wheelchair, and separated both of them from each other."What's your problem?" Denise asked, almost raising her voice at me."You shouldn't be hugging him, Denise" I said calmly, while glaring at Jake."Why can't I hug my boyfriend?" She asked, and my eyes widen why Denise called Jake her boyfriend. Does that mean she doesn't remember the pains Jake inflicted on her? Does it mean she only remembers her happy times with Jake? These where the question I keep asking myself as I looked at Denise with sad eyes. I took in my lips and said."He is not your boyfriend, Denise"Denise looked at me and
[ Mavis's POV ]I looked at Denise, surprised that she can't remember me. She was looking at me like someone she just met. My mom, Leo, Bella and likewise Denise's mom was also caught by surprise that she can't remember me."You don't remember me?" I asked, heartbreakingly. Denise looked at me from head to toe, and shook her head. "I don't know you Mr" She said, looking at me."What about me?" Her mom asked. She looked at her mom and smiled. "I know you, you're my mom" She said smiling."Do you remember me?" Bella asked."Of course I know you. You are my best friend, Bella smith""What about me?" Both Leo and my mom asked at the same time, and Denise looked at them confusedly."I don't know you both. Have we met before?" She asked, and my mom and Leo looked at me."Denise it's me" I said, holding her hand."Get your heads off me!" She shouted at me, taking her hand from me."Denise!" I muttered."I don't know you, so why do you keep touching me like this? Bella, do you know this man?"
[ Mavis's POV ]I got out of the car immediately I arrived at the scene. The place was quiet and filled with grass. "Ethan!" I shouted his name."Over here, Mavis" Ethan said with a dangerous smirk on his face, and he was holding Denise, and she had tears in her eyes, even her lips had bruises on them."How dare you lay your hands on Denise?" I tried to get close to him, but I stopped halfway because Ethan pointed a gun at me."Not so fast, Mavis," He said, smiling creepily."Why are you doing this Ethan? What have I ever done to you!" I said shouting at him, because from what I can remember, I have been nice to him."You have done a lot Mavis. You belittle me like I was nothing!""What the heck are you saying Ethan? When and how did I belittle you. I never treated you unfairly" "Yes you have Mavis. You send me errands like I was your houseboy. I wasn't Denise's driver, but you always made me drive her, but I took all of it, hoping that you'd see I am worth having the position of the
[ Denise's POV ]Ethan had a smirk on his face, as I continued to look at him with so much surprise. I have never thought for once that the person trying to kill Mavis and I, and Audrey's brother, will turned out to be Ethan. Mavis and I have been looking for him, not knowing he was right under our nose. Ethan is the one who has always tried to harm Mavis and I, and yet he is portrayed to be someone who can never hurt a fly."Why are you surprised to see me, Denise? Don't you know who I am anymore?" He asked with a creepy smile on his face."Was it you all this while? The man under the mask was you?" I asked, and Ethan smiled. He squatted beside me, trying to touch my face, but I used my head to jerk his hand off."Yes Denise. I am the man under the mask. I am responsible for everything that has happened to you, including you falling inside the swimming pool, the elevator, and so many other dangers that you were involved in" Ethan smiled and continued."I so badly wanted to kill you,
[ Mavis's POV ]I ran out of the house sweating dreadfully, after I read the short note on the bed. My heart was beating so fast, because I was afraid of what Audrey's brother might do to Denise. What if he kills her just like he has written on the note.I wasn't the one who pushed Audrey, she fell on her own Accord, when she was trying to push Denise. They were the ones who started all of this, so why are they coming after us again? I looked around the quiet street of my house, and there wasn't any form of a strange person or car leaving the premises."Dad, are you alright? Where's momma?" Alex asked, coming out from the house. I looked at Alex, but I couldn't answer his question because I was so scared of what might happen to Denise. I ran back inside the house, and innocent Alex followed me inside, wondering why I was running in and out of the house. I rushed inside my room, and quickly got possession of my laptop, and I logged in to the footage outside, and I gasped when I saw a m
[ Denise's POV ]My eyes widened immediately Audrey fell down from the rooftop, and I could see my body vibrating as a result of it. "Are you okay, Denise?" Mavis asked me, and I nodded my head before looking down from the rooftop, and I saw Audrey laying flat on the ground with a broken head, and blood was coming out from her head in a rush."Mavis… she's… she is bleeding" I said stuttering, because this is the first time I am seeing someone dying in my presence. With the help of Mavis, we rushed Audrey to the hospital, but she died even before the doctor could perform treatment on her."What are we going to do, Mavis? We didn't kill her right?" I asked, shaking because I don't want Mavis to be blamed for killing Audrey. She was the one who wanted to kill me, and Mavis was only trying to help me. Is this what they call self defense? I thought, shaking.Mavis saw the way I was shaking, and he pulled me into a hug, hugging me tightly. "We didn't kill Audrey. She fell from the rooftop, b
