2020-11-18 14:19:24"I can't lose them, dad," I sob, shaking my head continuously. "I can't lose anyone else, granny died last month, and I don't want them to die on me too." My voice is shaky, doleful and so frail.
God! I feel so broken, so fucking low, so overwhelmed, and I am so desperate for a miracle at the moment.
"You are not going to lose them, no one is going to die, love." He says, squeezing me incredibly closer and I wrap my arms around his neck, clinging to him so tight.
It's been a pretty rough weekend for me and being enclosed in my dad's protective arms feels so good.
This sense of security and love makes me feel so warm and safe.
His embrace is my temporary haven.
"I am so broken, and if I lose mom or Kelly-"
"It is going to be fine, I assure you," Dad tells me and I smile despite everything.
He is trying so har

“You have medical insurance for your car, right?” Dad asks hopefully.I exhale sharply and then I shake my head.I wouldn't be staring at this shitty paper in my hands so blankly, and the asshole wouldn't have paid the upfront since medical insurance covers everything.Okay, maybe not everything in such an expensive hospital but it would have covered at least half of the bill."Jo?" Dad calls, raising an eyebrow at me.“I haven't paid my monthly premium for the last three months, dad,” I say, raking my fingers through my hair and then I swallow dryly.If only I had let Matt help me clear my granny's hospital bill last month, I wouldn't be in such a fix right now.But I am independent as fuck and I really hate it when a man thinks that he can control me just because he is helping me with my bills.Matt struck me as that kind of a per

"Hey. Talk to me?" Rick snaps me out of my study and I heave a sigh as I turn to face him.He takes a few steps closer and leans on the guard rail, looking at me perceptively.He has all of his attention on me.I blink severally when tears well up in my already puffy eyes and I take a long deep breath."How urgent is surgery after an accident?" I ask, and the crack in my voice is back, I sound so desperate and low and very broken."It depends, what kind of surgery are we talking about?" He asks me and I shake my head."I have no idea." That twerp of a doctor didn't tell us shit. He was so arrogant and very ignorant. "Lets say major surgeries."He looks at me for a long second, like he is trying to read my mind and then he inhales sharply."There are several major surgeries," he pauses for a while, probably expecting me to add something t

I glance at the wall clock and I shoot up immediately.Fuck!It is seven in the fucking morning, I shouldn't be in bed.I hastily hop out and I stride straight to the bathroom for a cold shower.Five minutes later, I stroll out shivering like someone with a cold and I walk to my wardrobe, though I don't think I have any decent dress left. Kelly and Sky moved most of my things to Matt's place on my wedding eve.If only we knew.I just hope I will find something official to wear. I might need to go to the office and I can't show up in a tank top and some denim trousers.I hastily put on the first pair of panties and bra that my hand gets ahold of, they don't match and I don't even give a fuck.

"So, how can I be of any help?" Celine asks, crossing her legs and placing her hands on her hip like the refined woman that she is.Just a glance at her and you'd easily know that she rolls in dollars.Her outstanding makeup, her designer dresses, her expensive shoes, and her aura.Celine walks and carries herself like the boss like she owns the entire globe.It must be a nice feeling.She has her brown eyes cast on me and she is giving me all of her undivided attention."I know it is too much to ask-" I start to say, but she is quick to cut me in."Nothing is too much for my favorite daughter in law," she spares me a genuine smile. "My only daughter in law, actually." She corrects and I shake my head.She still thinks of me as a daughter in law even after everything that has happened?She thinks that I

I grab the cheque from the table, and I smile at Celine as I tear it up into tiny bitsy pieces, and her mouth hangs wide open in utter shock.She looks at the pieces of papers that are now scattered all over her dining table, and then she glares at me."Jo?""Thank you so much for your help, mother."I smirk at her and I walk out with shoulders held high.Celine and her three million dollars cheque can go to hell for all that I care.I drive straight home, and in the next thirty minutes, I am already pulling into our driveway.I hop out of Sky's Audi, banging the door shut and I walk to the house feeling so low.I can't believe I actually thought that Celine could help me, I should have listened to Sky.I find her lying on the couch, all dressed up and I bet she is waiting for nanny.She turns to face me

My mouth forms a big letter O when I glance at the handwritten letter, and my eyes nearly pop out of their sockets.Saying that I am shocked is a fucking understatement."What the hell?" I cuss, eyes scanning the sheet of paper in my hands for the umpteenth time and I shake my head.I am so fucked up, harder than I expected, and I am hella furious.My Jaw is set and I am grinding my teeth furiously as I read the familiar letter, word by word, for the hundredth time.My hands are jerking, hell, my entire body is literally shaking with rage and I am clutching the damn letter so tight almost tearing it into two pieces.And yes, it is my resignation letter.A letter that I wrote a few days ago.A letter that I personally signed.A letter that I didn't put in the envelope.A letter that I didn't fucking send to Styles.

"Are you okay, Joanna?" Sasha asks me, a frown forming on her beautiful face when she takes in my furious face, and I feel like a total bitch as I walk past her, completely ignoring her.I step out of the building and my heart is beating furiously as I walk towards the entrance.I am fully charged, one second away from exploding and I feel murderous.Extremely murderous."Kindly use the exit, Ms." The security guard tells me politely, but I push him out of the way and I proceed to walk through the entrance.He is probably cussing at me, but I don't give a flying shit.He can go hang for all I care.I hate all of them!I hate Modern Comm!I hate Mr. Styles!In fact, fuck Modern Comm!Fuck Mr. Styles!I hope he rots in hell.He is so insensitiv

"You did what?" I ask, squinting eyes at him in disbelief.My nostrils are flaring, fists clenched and every muscle in my body is quivering."I am sorry."I glare at him and shake my head.He is not even at the slightest bit remorseful.He still has that stupid smirk on his face and it makes me want to slap him really hard.He is looking at me as if everything is all okay, like costing me my job is not such a big deal and I am staring at him blankly, loss of words."You offered him money to fire me?" The words comes out stressed.It is yet to sink in my head yet.I can't believe that he would go to an extent of paying my boss to fire me, and I can't believe that Styles actually took the money.The way he was so furious with me.I wouldn't have guessed that it was all pretence, he i

I watch mom shove two tablets in her mouth, downing them with a gulp of water and I cringe. I really hate medicine but mom is not in anyway bothered by the many tablets placed on her bedside, I can't say the same about Kelly though.She hates them as much as I do and I had a very hard time convincing her to take the pills yesterday. Thank God Ric took over the duty this morning.He arrived an hour ago and after running some tests on mom, he joined Arya, Kelly's physiotherapist and according to Ric, she is the best that our state got.I should be there with Kelly but I couldn't tolerate watching her in so much pain, the session is not exactly a walk in the park, so I switched place with dad.Talking of dad, he didn't tell Sky the truth yesterday, apparently, he just wanted to see how she is doing and you can be sure as hell that Lydia didn't give him a warm welcome and that he left withou

I wake up to a shattering sound in the kitchen and I shoot up immediately, placing both my hands on my chest.Fuck!My heart is pounding so hard and I can't help the paranoia that creeps in at the thoughts of someone breaking in to hurt us, but I get some relief when I glance at the wall clock.It is 8:00 in the morning and I don't think anyone would break into people's place in daylight, probably nanny broke something by accident.I get out of Kelly's bed and walk towards her, she is lying peacefully on the bed that Ric brought since she can't use a normal bed. I stand there staring at her with a huge smile on my face.I am so happy.Waking up knowing that Kelly and mom are feeling better makes me so happy and the fact that they are home makes me feel so contended.I couldn't believe it yesterday when I came home and found them settled in, I

I heave a sigh of relief when we succeed in dodging the reporters who were trying to get to me with all sorts of questions about Matthew and Luther, but fortunately, the police did a good job of pushing them away and Ric shielded me from their view and the cameras the entire time."That was quite a task," I say as we walk through the hallway towards the wards.Kelly and mom have already been transferred to the wards and Ric is taking me to see them."You can say that again, those guys are very nosy." He says in a very irritated sound and he looks more pissed than he sounds."Unfortunately, that is what they are paid to do," he shakes his head."Still, that is too much. They should learn to take no for an answer, they were practically shoving their mike in our mouths. It is not ethical at all and I am so sure that it goes against their codes too."We make to go past the e

I thought Luther's death would give me some sort of relief. I assumed I would be a very happy person now that the person who wanted to hurt me and my family is dead, I won't walk around with a target on my back or worry about Luther hurting Kelly and mom. I thought I would be okay, I am supposed to feel okay, his death is supposed to make me feel better and relieved.But I feel quite the opposite, if anything. I feel sad, I feel sorry for West and it is a shocker that my humanity is still unscathed even after the hell that I have been through.No matter how hard I try to get rid of the image, the scene is still stuck in my head and there is nothing I can do about it.Luther's body lying in a pool of blood, West crying painfully begging his son to wake up, asking him to open his eyes, the police announcing that Luther is dead and two cops pulling a traumatized West up.I keep replaying that sce

The hair on the back of my neck stands up and every muscle in my body tenses."WHAT? WHERE?" I ask as a sudden overwhelming feeling of fear surges through me. "Please tell me that mom and Kelly are safe." I plead.My heart is beating fast and wild against my chest and I can feel my blood pumping so fast and hard in my veins.If Luther gets to them...Fuck!I shut my eyes tight in an attempt to push the thoughts of Luther hurting either mom or Kelly out of my mind but it doesn't work.God!They better be safe."They are okay for now, I have seen him at the reception and I am rushing to the ICU to alert the police guards." Ric tells me and I can hear his ruffled breaths through the phone."Okay. I am on my way.""No. Don't risk coming over, I want you to get out of West's office and hide somewhe

I debate whether to go back to Wendy's room or not, after I end my call with Celine, but the former wins.Wendy is still sitting on the bed, resting her head on the head rest and she stares at me with disinterest when I push the door open.I know my presence is boring her to death but I will be out of this place before she knows it."It is obvious you don't want to see me." I say walking inside."I was hoping it is, so why are you here anyway?""I came to see how you are doing and to apologise for pushing you yesterday." My eyes linger on the bandage around her upper arm. "It was an accident.""You already did that less than ten minutes ago." She says curtly."You got no bad blood?"I want to be sure that she won't be suing my poor ass later."I am grateful if anything, you did the dirty work for me." She says with n

Celine stands there, startled. I know she didn't expect to find me here and neither did I and I can't help but speculate why she is here.She looks like she just woke up, jumped from the bed and drove here. I can bet anything that she didn't even take a shower and my only guess is that Matty already told her what happened that is why she looks super distressed so early in the morning.Because her precious son was arrested.Matthew spent just a night in jail and she already looks like this??I can't wait to see her two week from now because I know Matthew is not getting out and Celine will be depressed to death.I stand there waiting for her to scold me, call me names, slap me, snap at me asking what I am doing in his son's office or do all of the above but to my surprise, she does neither of those things."Jo?" She calls my name after a long silence and

"We have a bathroom in case you want to clean yourself up." Isabell, the forensic nurse, tells me after she is done examining and doing a few vaginal swabs on me."Thank you but I would rather do that in the house." I say, getting out of the examination bed.I have been lying on the bed for the past thirty minutes, legs wide apart and I was starting to feel numb."Are you on birth control?" She asks, walking towards the desk as I follow her."Nope.""Please have a seat, I will be right back."She disappears to another room on the left and I sit on the chair to wait for her.A few seconds later, she walks back carrying a glass of water and three blister packs and she places the glass on the desk, right in front of me."Here," she hands me a pack of emergency pills. "You will take one tablet and the other one s

I am coiling myself up on the couch completely naked, trembling from the cold, my mind a million miles away and by the time it strikes me that I should cover up, Enzo is already standing besides me. I can't see his face from this position, but I can see his legs and I feel his eyes on me.I want to quickly grab my torn dress from the floor and cover my nakedness but I can't even lift my finger. I feel so numb and so weak, I just lay there completely exposed and very conscious.Enzo cusses under his breath as he covers me from chest to my mid-thigh with his jacket and then he kneels besides me.He stares at me for a long second and in his eyes, I can see a hint of fury and concern and compassion and another emotion that I can't make out.He reaches to touch my face and I recoil. I know this is Enzo and deep down I know he can't hurt me but I can't help it. I feel so paranoid."
