"Mr Wyatt, Mrs Wyatt is missing. It's been more than fifteen minutes, they can't find her."He froze at the spot momentarily, his facial muscles tensed. Apollo grinds his teeth which created a visible bulge in the jawline."Head to CL right now." After ordering so, Apollo called her number again and again but she never picked up.His mouth turned downward and the corners of his lips pulled in.'I shouldn't have let her go alone, damn it!' with his clenched fists, he glared at his phone screen.There, in the elevator, Audrey struggled for breath. Finally, the elevator stopped moving but everywhere seemed so dark that she got more scared. After vainly trying to call anyone, she finally found out that the reception in her phone was gone.'Someone... Please help!' thinking she was dying, Audrey almost gave up.But then, she heard someone making noises. Slowly, a hand reached for her. The pair of eyes looked at her worriedly and he extended his hand to pull her out.Audrey could only thin
On the balcony, two figures stood at a little distance. Since Apollo came to the hospital, he became rather calm and serious. Apollo finally broke the silence as he pronounced, determined."Noah.""Yes, Mr Wyatt.""I want you to take care of something." After thinking for some time, he made up his mind. The reporters appeared at all the places Audrey could possibly go as if someone purposefully gave them her address. For two days, she was not allowed to leave the hospital. All the time bodyguards kept guarding the door.Hearing the sound of someone walking into the room, her face lit up with a hopeful smile.Audrey sat on the bed patiently as she pleaded, "Grace, please take me to Gramps. It's been two days, you guys kept me locked in this room. I can't stay here anymore, I want to meet him."Grace put the things in her hand on the table, she had no choice but to do it for her good since it was the best for everyone."Sorry, Drea. I can't take you there. Now, it's not the right tim
He didn't actually regret it, if he regretted anything then it was that he believed his girlfriend too much... to the extent he turned into a loser in her eyes.Even knowing everything, he didn't yet break up with her. He lacked no courage, but he couldn't just do it. He looked all fine as a human being, but deep inside, he was dying everyday.With a deep annoyance in her heart, Noah sauntered away as he wanted to avoid her. With a sweet smile, Isla followed him. Since the last time she met him, she desperately looked for him, even turning the earth upside down but even with her connections she couldn't find him."Do you work here? What do you do?... Mister Yung, wait for me please. Did you miss me since the last time we met? How are you doing these days?" She couldn't wait to ask whatever was inside her head. It was making her emotions becoming a total mess. Isla never been so crazy about anyone, to her eyes he was just... just perfect for her.Noah turned a blind eye at her and as h
"Mummy, don't worry. We will be good kids and won't cause trouble for Aunt Nina." Preston asserted so.Nina had been taking care of the kids, she was trustworthy and had the skills to protect anyone in need. Audrey thought of her as someone reliable and kind-hearted."Please listen to Aunt Nina and without her permission, don't go anywhere, don't do anything. Ok?""Yes, Mummy. But when will you come to see us? Great-grandpop said he can't come here for a while. We miss him.""Soon, baby. Mummy will come to see you soon."There was no certainty when she would be back, she was not sure herself.The conversation went on...Until a voice interrupted their conversation."Whom are you talking to?" Apollo asked a hint of curiosity in his humble tone.Audrey quickly hung up. She looked calm and serious. "It's none of your business." And she walked past him.Near the door, he heard her talking to someone. She sounded so caring, exactly the opposite of how she behaved with him.Not thinking too
"Ahh! Go slow, slow. Please."Grabbing her leg, Apollo intentionally pulled her leg one more time and she screamed loudly."No, don't. Please.""Didn't you want to run? How about I help you out?"Audrey moved to the other side of the bed and he pulled her hand, stopping her."I said it, I won't do it again. Stop it now.""You are still arguing with me? If I wouldn't know it, you would still be lying on the floor, fainted."After checking her, the doctor prescribed some medicine and left. Thankfully, she didn't get hurt badly or it would be worse.With all the practice she had these past few years, Audrey was determined that she would be able to go to the bathroom but accidentally her legs slipped... She got hurt.The moment Audrey opened her eyes, she found herself lying on the bed with the doctor checking her."Why did you help me if you were to brag about it? Not like I asked for your help."Hearing her, he rubbed the back of his neck and licked his lips. His trying to go to the rig
"Uhmm..."Jessy kept looking at her, she couldn't believe her eyes when she saw her face in the news. "Five years ago, I would have kept you imprisoned even if I had to, if I knew you were planning of leaving. Eve. This time, you are back. You can go nowhere again." Jessy smiled at her with teary eyes. Audrey smiled a bit sadly, "I am sorry, Granny.""Hmm, I forgive you but there should be no repetition of this mistake again. Ok?"Sitting silently with an indifferent facial reaction, Audrey didn't know what to say. As Jessy noticed how she was staring around, Jessy understood what she was thinking."Apollo is not here. Rest assured.""Ohh." Audrey held her hand and assured her, "Granny, I can't promise you but... But I can promise you we will always get to meet each other. I won't disappear again.""Are you still angry at my grandson? You don't... Don't want to stay with him?""I..."A little bit hesitant, Audrey bit her lips. Upon seeing her sad eyes, Jessy held her hands. She smi
'Where are we going exactly? I don't feel like he is intending to tell me. So, there's no meaning of me asking him anything...'Sitting in the car next to him, Audrey played with the ring in her finger. After she woke up this morning, he told her he was taking her somewhere but didn't say anything about the venue. Strangely, she noticed he was too silent today, too calm and like an effigy. Without her noticing, it was making her sad as well."Uhmm...""Wait for me, I will be back soon." Saying so he left the car. And soon he came back but she saw there was something in his hand. Leaning a little close, she could see a bouquet of flowers but for whom those flowers were? The whole time till they reach the destination, he kept staring at the space and uttered no words. 'Did I perhaps miss something?'As she was following his footsteps while he held her hand, holding the lilies in her hand a sudden feeling of comfort and peace took place in her heart. 'He came to visit someone...' Ta
Audrey took a short breath, she kept calm and asserted, "Patrick, actually...""Wait, I am coming. Ahh, Audie. Grace is calling for me. I have to go now. I'll call you back soon." Click!"Hello? Pat..." The call was cut off before she could tell him what she intended to do, Audrey let out a sigh and put her phone on the side of the table.There, Patrick kept staring at the screen of his phone with gloomy eyes when his hand gripped the phone tightly. 'I know what you want to say but I don't want to hear it. I can't...'Taking a deep breath as he stood still near the pool, thunder rumbled in the near distance. The dark clouds reign the sky, calling for rain.Patrick moved swiftly to the living room."Grace, the weather is... Where are you going?" Seeing Grace walking in a hurry towards the entrance, he questioned.Grace in an indifferent tone of voice answered him, "I am going back.""It will probably be raining soon. Why don't you stay here for tonight?"To his suggestion, she hurrie
