"Get some rest, I will make you some tea," he said and got up to leave.Luis stood there for a while and he leaned in and kissed her lips."This is the last time he will be able to be that with her, be this close to her, and be that affectionate with her. Starting now, things will be different," Luis thought to himself as he walked out of Rose's room.As soon as Luis left, Rose broke down in tears beating her pillow as if the pillow offended her."She was sure she didn't want to be with him so why did it hurt so much that he broke off their engagement?" Rose thought as tears flowed down her face uncontrollably.Luis was standing in front of her door, so he could hear her crying. His heart ached. He wished he could go back in there and pull her into his arms and tell her everything would be okay"I don't love her. I was only taking responsibility for my actions. So why does it hurt we broke up?" Luis thought and walked hurriedly into his study not wanting to hear her cry.In the study,
"What a perfect distraction plan," he said smiling sarcastically.After realizing framing Lily was just to distract him from carrying out his investigation, Luis now has questions he needs answers to. Yes, Lily had met up with Mrs Mingle, but why? She had sneaked out of the hospital that night, they thought she had a cardiac arrest. The lady who had met Jennifer to warn them of the police was in a black dress. Surprisingly, Lily was also in a black dress and was seen at the same location of the meet-up.Luis was in the kitchen, preparing some tea and some toast when his eyes caught sight of a candle close to the leg of the table. It was not lit. He picked it up wondering what that was doing there in the kitchen. It was almond-scented."Wait, why will Rose light a scented candle and hide it behind the leg of the table, unless someone did it." he thought.He stopped what he was doing immediately, called his delivery guy and handed the candle to him packaged to be delivered to a friend
"If it is about getting Rose a chatting friend, what are you there for?" Derrick teased and laughed drawing some smiles from Luis."Girls talk is very important," Luis replied with a smile.Derrick returned to his apartment to plan the trip. He made some calls to book a flight ticket for tonight. He went to Lily's room and found her sitting on the bed with her eyes fixated on the window"Lily," he called as he sat next to her on the bed.Lily turned her gaze from the window to Derrick, but she was expressionless"Lily, is everything okay?" he asked worriedly.Getting no response he asked another question"Are you hungry?" he asked.She burst out crying. He quickly hugged her, rubbing her back, "Hey, is okay. I am not leaving you alone again. sh! sh! sh!" He consoled her. Lily pulled away from Derrick and looking at him with tearful eyes, asked, "Why can't I remember anything? I know I have been here before. I can feel it. So why can't I remember anything?" she questioned in tears."Li
Derrick and Lily have safely arrived in California with the hope that the new environment will keep Lily safe and help with her recovery.Lily went to bed upon arrival as she was exhausted from the long flight. Derrick, feeling a little disappointed, went back to his room to sleep. He tossed and turned in bed unable to sleep.Eventually, he got out of bed, sat behind his desk, and started planning their fun activities. Places they could visit, shopping, yes shopping. He sat behind the desk listing them out, occasionally he checked the internet for interesting places they could visit for fun. He did that to while away the time.The birds' noisy chirping woke him up. He realizes he had dozed off behind the desk while planning their fun activities. He got up and stretched feeling some pains in his back. He frowned and was heading toward the washroom when he heard a knock on his door. He went and opened it and it was one of the servants who had come to inform him breakfast was ready"What
Derrick and Lily are finally in California and decided to visit Griffith Park as their first fun activity. Lily was so happy and amazed by the beautiful sights. She wanted to see the merry-go-round next after having an ice cream.At the ice cream shop, she chooses her flavour and Derrick decides to settle for the same flavour. He took out his wallet to pay for the ice cream which Lily had already started eating with a smile on her face. "Looks like this ice cream is not going back," Lily said as she ate her ice cream.Derrick smiled at her and went inside to get them a bottle of water to take to their next destination."Lily!" came a female voice from behind Lily.Lily turned around in the direction of the voice to find out who it was after hearing her name for the second time."O my god, Lily is you. Long time no see," the strange woman said to Lily and offered her hand for a handshake. Lily smiled awkwardly as she didn't recognize the person but accepted the handshake. She could te
Derrick and Lily visited Griffith Park to have fun. Everything was going well until Lyla showed up. Lily could not recognize her due to her lost memory. Lyla came to California purposely to end the relationship between these two as she believes she is meant to be with Derrick.She took advantage of the fact that Lily had lost her memory to create an impression that she and Derrick were a couple.Lily, even though she does not recall any love relationship between herself and Derrick, was falling in love with him in this new life of hers. She felt really hurt seeing Derrick and Lyla kiss."He has never told me he loves me," Lily thought. "Why do I feel this way," she pursed her lips."Lily!" came Derrick's voice after a knock on her door."Are you sleeping? Is our movie night remember?" Derrick reminded sounding very calm and excited.Lily quickly wiped the tears from her eyes. "Get a hold of yourself," she thought and dragged herself out of bed to answer the door."Why do you want to de
The words played on Lily's mind multiple times like a recording on a loop, he is going to be a father. Derrick returned home with lots of excitement about all the things he had planned for Lily. Tonight, he was going to tell Lily they are a couple. He had wanted her to gain her memory, but he got the feeling if he didn't do it now, things might go bad."Where is Lily?" he asked not seeing her anywhere in the living room as he had expected."Sir, she is in her room" replied the servant."Since morning?" Derrick inquired with concern."No, sir, she came down for breakfast and went back to her room," replied the servant.The servant said, turned to leave but recalled something and turned to face her boss again."Sir, you had a visitor, a young woman, but I called ma'am for her since you were not around," the servant said. Derrick squinted his eyes upon hearing this news, but quickly brushed it off and headed toward Lily's room without asking for any details about the said visitor. He kn
Lily leaned on the car for support as her legs could not hold her. Her whole world was spinning as the ground was slipping from beneath her. The scene from the restaurant was stuck in her eye. She sees it when she closes her eyes and still sees it when she opens her eyes. It was like a nightmare she could not wake up from.Feeling hurt, she spoiled her nicely done hair, removed the jewellery and threw them away as she wailed in pain."Why will he do this to me?" Lily questioned still leaning against the parked car in the car park.The spa, the make-up, the dress, the ride to the restaurant and the welcome by the waiter, she had thought it was for her, only now did she realize it was all a mistake."It was all for Lyla, not me. How did I get my hopes up?" Lily cried wondering why she felt so hurt by this scene.She began to walk away unsure of where she was going. The owner of the car she was leaning on, arrived at the car park and heard the sobbing of a woman in the quietness of the ca
