GRAYSON’S POV:If I do not knock these people down any minute now, I can only be picked up from the cliff that was ahead of me. Why is that cliff there during this time? Damn it!I guess I don’t have that much choice, so I open the compartment of my car while gritting my teeth in annoyance as I grab my gun inside. I didn’t even bother closing it anymore since I don't have the freaking time to do so.I immediately pulled down my window and put my left hand, which was holding a gun, to shoot at their car before withdrawing my hand in a hurry.I am good at using guns, but since they were also showering me with bullets and I was alone at the moment, it became hard for me to fight back, but I didn't have any choice since I still wanted to live even though this world was too cruel for me.I am not going to die here without putting up a goddamn fight. I heaved a sigh to calm my nerves as I looked at the road with determination while gripping my steering wheel until my knuckles turned white b
GRAYSON’S POV:I sighed and looked at the back of this girl before heaving a sigh. I don’t know why I trusted this person even though I didn’t know anything about her except the name Zee.However, even though I don’t want to let my guard down against her, I already did because of how she risked her life in saving me earlier.After a few minutes of driving, she suddenly stopped in front of a cafe that was unfamiliar to me. In fact, since I don’t have that much time to roam around the Philippines unless it is important, I am not quite familiar with many places around the country.She parked her big bike in a parking lot, so this was my cue to get down, which I immediately did and remove the helmet I was wearing before using my other hand to fix my hair that was messed up because of wearing it.She also got down and stood up beside me before removing the helmet she was wearing as well and placing it above her big bike, just as I put mine beside her helmet.After that, she immediately loo
GRAYSON’S POV:A lot of pictures were here as well, which came from CCTV footage during the night of the said kidnapping incident. Even though I flip through or read all the papers, everything is still the same.I heaved a sigh and closed my eyes to calm my nerves because I could already feel my whole body trembling due to this unexpected information. I couldn’t help but recall the things I experienced all those years ago with the family that I grew up with.There is a possibility that everything that was here is the reason why they are being like that to me. Maybe they knew something about my identity. If everything written here is true, I guess I'll have to find my true family to settle everything about me.When I think about these possibilities, I can’t help but feel disappointed and angry toward the people who kidnapped me. I also felt somehow agitated about the thought that maybe, just maybe, gaining some love from a family member wasn’t that impossible after all.I opened my eye
ICE’S POV:I’ve been here in the hospital for a few weeks now, and I could say that it was quite boring. All I need to do is to stay here, eat some bland foods, and sleep. I'm not used to this, but knowing that I'm also a doctor, I knew it was the right thing to do.Today, I was alone here in my room since all of them visited Xercel in the other room, while Jaycel, on the other hand, was nowhere to be found.I don’t know if it’s just me who notices this change, but it seems that Jaycel has really eaten and slept a lot these past few days. She also became moody except for me, and she became extra nice and even clingy sometimes to me, which became even weirder each day.However, even though I found it weird, I didn’t stop her since I wanted to observe her even more. Maybe one of these days, I will talk to her about something that can change my whole perspective on her situation, but right now, I need to settle my issues first.I looked around this room and saw how luxurious it was, but
ICE’S POV:Before I could speak, he already beat me to it when he said, "I know you need them now and as much as I want to be against this idea, I don’t have any choice but to trust you on this."I sighed deeply as I muttered, "Thank you and see you later, Mark."He hummed in response as I turned my back away from him and walked towards the stairs, since if I used the elevator, there was a big possibility that they would see me there, which could make this whole sneaking thing useless.Even though my body was still not that good and my room was on the last floor of this hospital, I still did my best to get down. Trust me, it was too tiring, but I don’t have any choice, do I?When my feet landed on the ground of the first floor, I immediately caught my breath because I was already panting while leaning on the handrail of the stairs to support myself.After a few minutes, I stood up straight without the support of the stairs and walked towards the direction of the parking lot. I immedia
ICE’S POV:When the call was accepted by the other party, he put the phone closer to his ear and glanced at me for a few seconds before looking away with a guilty expression.He immediately mumbled, "Bro, your wife already knew about what you did and she wants to see you in 20 minutes or you will face her wrath this time."I didn’t hear what the other party answered, but based on the expression on this guy's face, he might have come this time.After that, both of us were enveloped in silence, until he broke it by asking me hesitantly, "When did you know about this?"Since I was looking at the floor, hearing this from him made me raise my head to look in his direction as I answered calmly, "Since the time I woke up, you have been talking to him on the phone while you are in my room, and I was still weak at that time to open my eyes, but I am not deaf after all, so I heard you both."He nodded his head hesitantly as he asked again, "Are you angry at us?"I rolled my eyes and pursed my l
ICE’S POV:My forehead creased as I frowned and asked again, "Then she found out about us marrying each other, right?"He nodded sadly as he answered, "When she found out that I got married, she immediately found a way to kill you and separate us, and she even attempted to kill our children in the hospital when they were just born." This made me grit my teeth as he looked at me and asked, "During that time, I don't have any choice, Cheonsa, but to do what I did back then."When he called me that unfamiliar yet familiar nickname, I somehow looked at him in bewilderment as I looked away in shame. I didn’t know that the nickname he has always called me in the past still has this kind of effect in the present.I felt warm and soft inside. I felt like I was already at home, like I belonged there, but when I remembered what he told me about that woman, the anger in my chest flared up again.I looked at him with a serious expression and asked to make sure, "You are referring to that mafia qu
ICIEST’S POV:I wanted to slap myself that time because I felt so selfish for just thinking about myself when I still had my children who were waiting for me to take care of them and let them experience the family that both of us and their mom didn’t experience because of how cruel the world was to us by taking our parents at an early age.It happened one night, so when I heard him cry, I immediately walked towards their crib, and there I saw him crying as his brother was awakened because of his cry as well.The only difference is that Chronicles was just staring at his crying brother silently. Even at a young age, Chronicles wasn’t the type of baby who cried a lot except when he was hungry, unlike History, who always cried every time. But I don’t mind; I am still fond of both of them and I love them equally no matter what happens.I heaved a sigh that time before wiping my tears and bending slightly to carry History in my arms as I rocked him to sleep while humming some gentle tune f
