“Manager Kim, can you sit down for a moment?! You’ve been going round and round and I’m getting dizzy because of you.” Director Jackson commented.Manager Kim immediately glared at him which made him shut his mouth. “How can I calm down?! Those two brats won’t ever listen to me! Mary wanted to keep her child and raised the child alone without the father! I don’t even have an idea who the father is!” She huffed in full anger just by thinking of it.“And that stubborn Everly! She really won’t let me rest! She just agreed to Mary’s decision! She even offered to help her in supporting the child! Does that even make sense!”After the discussion, Manager Kim won’t call a discussion since they didn’t ask for her opinion at all and just directly went ahead with their own decision right away.They just called her o
“I really don’t know what happened. I was just drinking at the bar that night. You know me when I drink, I don’t know when to stop so I think I passed out. And the next thing I knew, I’m already inside a hotel room alone.” Jonathan explained exasperatedly.The fright he felt that time when he woke up, with no clothes on his body. The only evidence that something happened that night is the stains of blood on the white bed cover.He knew instantly he messed up that night. He just slept with a stranger and what’s worst is that she was a freaking virgin!“And you didn’t even try to find her?!” Hans shouted in frustration. This is why he really can’t trust Jonathan on his own. He would end up messing things up.Just look at what happened right now, he slept with a person whom he can’t even remember! A
Everly, together with Manager Kim, Director Jackson, and Mary’s family sent Mary to the airport. Today is the scheduled date for Mary to fly abroad.This is the result of their serious discussion on their stay at the hospital. After Manager Kim suggested having Mary’s child be raised by another parent, Everly heavily disagreed while Mary was having second thoughts about it.Of course, Mary knew the seriousness of her situation. With no one to support the child aside from her, it would be very difficult for her to raise the child on her own.She also doesn’t want Everly to keep shouldering her burden. She knew that Everly just wanted to help but it was not right to bring her into her troubled life. She would feel uncomfortable and it will be unfair to Everly.So, after a few days of thinking, Mary finally decided to do what Manager Kim had suggested. After she gives birth to the child, she will send it for adoption. Director Jackson also assured her that he will find good parents for h
After that was dropped by Hans, Jonathan immediately dashed outside the office. Hans followed him right after, “Nurse Trina, cancel my appointments for the rest of the day. I have something important to do.”After leaving some words, he rushed towards the parking area to run after Jonathan. Just in time, before the elevator closes, he managed to catch up to him. “Where are you going?”“Airport” Jonathan’s short reply. His eyes stared at the elevator floor, hoping for it to reach the basement parking immediately. His foot tapping the cold-tile floor, showing impatience.‘Why is the elevator so slow in working?! I should raise this complaint to the hospital management!’ he silently complained.Hans frowned at his reply and retorted back, “What are you going to the airport? Stop Mary from leaving?… I told you, the flight has already taken off. Unless if there’s some plane or turbulence issue, then the flight might have been delayed.”“No, I have to see it for myself… I know she’s still t
“What?!… That was you?!” Manager Kim exploded. So, it was Dr. Jonathan Han! The one who knocked up their dearest Mary!Everly was equally stupefied as Manager Kim. She had never once thought that the father of Mary’s child was Dr. Han… How did they even end up sleeping with each other?! When did it happen?! How was that possible?!Instead of answering, Jonathan just nodded his head.“You knew about it?” Everly accusingly looked at Hans. Except for him, no one had this calm expression after Jonathan’s revelation.Hans responded with an affirmation. “But, I just learned about it a while ago.”“How did this happen?! How did you and Mary end up…” Everly can’t find the right words to continue. She was still in complete shock right now.Jonathan lowered his head in embarrassment. He was so ashamed of himself right now. He also knew about it today.When he went back to the bar, the bartender who was on duty that night had sick leave. He just came back to work last night so the Manager of the
“What do you think had happened to Dr. Han and Mary? Did you think he already found her?” Everly asked Hans when he visited her apartment this morning.It’s been a week since they last saw Mary and Jonathan. By the time she mentioned Mary’s address, Dr. Han hurriedly rushed to the airport.They didn’t know how he managed to easily book a ticket on such a rush note but he did it with just a couple of calls. She bet he paid a hefty amount to book that flight.“He probably did. Haven’t heard from him since then. Did Mary contact you these days?” Hans mouthed. The day after Jonathan left the country, he tried to call him but cannot be reached.He also didn’t’ inform Director Han about his leave so he had to deal with the patients he left behind. He also has to handle Director Han’s constant pestering about his son’s location.But because it’s about Jonathan’s personal life, he didn’t divulge anything to him. Director Han might ruin Jonathan’s plans so it’s best he didn’t know anything.“N
“Now, tell me, what have you found out? That better be useful or else, Tyrone.” Louisse warned after they finished organizing Tyrone’s things in his apartment.Louisse had already made some necessary arrangements for him, especially the place where he would be living. It’s not favorable of him to just buy some random houses in here since he won’t be staying for long.His company is based abroad and he doesn’t have any businesses here in the country. Unless he wanted to expand his business here then she would help find real estate for him.But Tyrone declined. In his words, he doesn’t like the air in the country so he doesn’t like living in here. His reason was really ridiculous but she didn’t force him either.“Can you just let me rest for a minute before you asked for it?!” Tyrone complained as he slouched on the ragged floor in the living room.“Tyrone, let me remind you that I’m the one who cleaned the apartment, even your bedroom I’m the one who arranged it. Even the things you ne
With a serious expression, Tyrone, sat on the soft couch, while looking at Louisse, with a flustered expression.“So, what are you going to do about that result?… You know, you can’t use that to destroy Everly’s career. No one will believe you even with that document. It might backfire on you.”“I know” she answered softly, her mind is still in chaos. She can’t properly think about what to do with the information she got. But one thing’s for sure, Everly is not a normal person.Before, she believed in science and anything with evidence or something that her eyes can see. But this result opened her to a wider scope. There are still things in this world that can’t be explained by science.“Are you going to tell that to Dr. Lee?” he asked seriously.He is 100% sure that Dr. Lee will not believe her… Just based on how he acted toward Everly, it clearly shows how in love he is with him. And sometimes, people who are in love lose their ability to think logically and reasonably.Just like wh
Today is finally Everly’s most awaited concert. Although the performance will start at 6 pm, people were already lining up in the concert hall since early in the morning. It was an overwhelming crowd.Fans were bringing banners and light sticks to show support for their idol. Even if Everly was just new to the industry, she was highly anticipated by people. Not just because of her elegant and pretty face but also in her music.People loved all the songs she released. Even the debut song she sang during Manager Kim’s wedding, brought her millions of views on every social platform. With that, she was branded as the new pop sensation in the music industry.Backstage, Everly and her team were already starting their preparation. Manager Kim was so busy doing errands. She wanted to make sure that nothing wrong will happen for today’s concert. She doesn’t know why but she doesn’t want anything wrong to happen with her concert.“Iris! We will be starting in a few hours. Are you ready?” Manage
Afternoon came and Hans went ahead to his scheduled appointment. Jonathan messaged him that he was already on his way to the mall that’s why he bid farewell to Everly and went on his way.Everly’s concert hall and the mall are only a few blocks away so Hans managed to arrive there earlier than Jonathan. He waited at one of the coffee shops on the second floor of the mall.It didn’t take long for Jonathan to arrive. he ordered some drinks for himself as well and sat down on the seat in front of Hans. “So, why do you want us to meet here? Are you going to buy something?”Hans nodded, “Yes, I need your help with something.”“What is it?”“I’m planning to do a surprise proposal to Iris at her concert,” Hans said with pride. He had been thinking about it for so long already. There are already a lot of things that had happened between us.They had already been separated by death twice already and a lot of unrealistic things had already transpired in their story. They encountered problems an
For the last 2 weeks, Everly had been constantly busy. Most of the time, she would leave before the sun rises and comes back when the sun was down. Even if she and Hans stayed under the same roof, they rarely spent time together due to her busy schedule.Hans understood it clearly. After all, it’s Everly’s passion and he was fully supporting it. Currently, it’s the weekend and of course, Everly was not at home but instead at the concert hall since she had another rehearsal.Her first ever concert is about to happen in 3 days so her schedule is pretty hectic. She was even busier than Hans who was a doctor.Speaking of Hans, he was left alone in their villa. He doesn’t have any work schedule for this day. Aside from that, he has a plan later on that’s why he stayed home.Later at lunch, he will go to Everly’s workplace to send her some homemade lunch and then in the afternoon, he will be meeting Jonathan at the mall. He needed his help with something important. It’s a surprise he will b
Hans was so surprised to see Everly in his office at that moment. “Hey, I thought you were busy today with your concert?” He walked closer and took the cake into her hands.Everly smiled brightly at him and kissed him on the cheeks, “No matter how busy I am. You are always my priority. So, congratulations on your promotion Dr. Lee— I mean, Director Lee.”“Thank you! Thank you for coming. I really appreciate it.” Hans took her to the couch where Jonathan was looking at them with a deep frown on his face. “Guys, a little consideration please?… "Hans just laughed at him, “You have a wife on your own. I’m sure you two were more PDA than us.”Jonathan looked at him in disbelief. He turned his head towards Everly with a baffled look, “Iris, is this really my friend?… I’m sure the Hans I’ve known for so many years wouldn’t say such things.”Everly just chuckled lightly before answering, “I’m not quite sure myself. I also get surprised sometimes.”Jonathan shook his head and looked at Hans w
Months have passed by since Everly’s return and everything went as normal as possible. Director Jackson and Manager Kim had already come back from their honeymoon trip and went back to their respective works.Mary also decided to open a shop for her to pass the time. Her mother, Mrs. Watson was helping her in managing it. Jonathan was also in full support of his wife’s business. It was a cafe and Mary found a very promising location which is located near the hospital. Manager Kim helped her in acquiring that land.Currently, the shop was still under renovation and it will officially open its doors in a couple of weeks. On the other hand, Director Han, Jonathan’s father decided to resign from his work and wanted to enjoy the rest of his life leisurely.A lot of people disagreed with his sudden retirement but he was stubborn and firm in his decision. He said that he also wants to spend more time with his granddaughter and be with her as she grows up. After all, he had never gotten to do
The wedding reception has come to an end. Director Jackson and Manager Kim were now off on their honeymoon trip directly. They chose to spend their honeymoon abroad where they will be traveling from country to country to visit lots of places. They rarely spent a vacation due to the nature of their work that’s why President Song gave them this special wedding gift. A 3 weeks vacation and 5 plane tickets that they could use to whatever country they want to visit. He was very generous to them. At the airport, only Jonathan and Mary came. David went home right after the ceremony while Mrs. Watson went home as well together with Maverick. She brought with her baby Everly since it was already past her bedtime. “By the way, where is Hans?… Did he go home early? I didn’t see him right after he made his congratulatory speech.” Director Jackson confusedly, “Weren’t you together with him at the wedding hall?” Jonathan smirked, “He run away from who knows where dragging a woman with him.” “Ru
The hour that everyone was waiting for has finally come. All the guests, friends, and families were already gathered at the wedding hall, waiting for the groom and bride to make their entrance.The venue is located in a private garden owned by President Song, the CEO of the company where both Director Jackson and Manager Kim were working. The theme of the wedding is white and blue. White flowers with artificial blue-colored roses were elegantly arranged around the place.A large white grand piano was placed on the stage. Everyone was so excited about this day. Jonathan, David, and Hans were seated in the front row together with Mary, Mrs. Watson, and Maverick. All of them were dressed according to the theme. All of them were dressed in different shades of blue.When the wedding planner signaled, the wedding was about to begin. The singer was also being escorted to the stage. All eyes were on her, some were amused, excited, confused, and a lot more reactions. After all, she was a nobod
Jonathan booked a private hotel room at one of the most exclusive hotels in the city, The Ridgepole Hotel. It was not easy to book a room in this hotel since it needs membership. And there are a lot of criteria to be a member of this hotel.He was not the one who was a member of it but his father. Since it’s a special occasion for Director Jackson, he asks for his membership card to be able to book a room.As the time run so fast, it was already 8 in the evening. It’s the time he set for them to arrive. Jonathan has already arrived earlier than the rest of them. He ordered food and drinks for them.Not a moment later, Hans arrived as well. Then followed by Director Jackson. It was a very private and small celebration but it was enough for everyone.“So, how was the singer Manager Kim told you about? Did you meet her?” Jonathan asked as he served the canned beers he bought earlier.Director Jackson took one and opened it. He drank a mouthful before answering, “Yes. I met her earlier th
5 days had already passed since Hans got discharged from the hospital. Jonathan and Director Jackson scolded him so hard after he had woken up. Fortunately, nothing wrong came out from his test results so he got discharged immediately.After that short encounter he had with Everly, he didn’t know whether it was a dream or reality. When he woke up, it was like what he had experienced was a total dream. But it felt surreal and his memory of her was completely encrypted in his mind.He knew it wasn’t a dream. He had already talked with Everly to the other dimension. Hans even tried to ask Jonathan and Director Jackson if they knew someone named Everly but they did not know anyone.So, Hans didn’t push that topic and just let it be. Since it was Everly’s wish and sacrifice, he would respect it. It’s okay if she has been forgotten by everyone in the world, as long he still remembered her, it’s more than enough.“Dr. Lee, you have a call from from Dr. Hans.” his secretary said. Hans was cur
