GIGI'S POVđJaydenâŚ.He is alive.. wait, maybe I am imagining things.I take slow steps closer to him, I reach out and touch his cheeks to confirm if I am really seeing him.Itâs him, he is really alive. He is standing in front of me, I am not dreaming.The flowers fall from my hand as I throw myself into his arms, he wrap his arms around me and hug me to himself.I bury my face in his shoulder and begin to cry.âJayden⌠itâs you⌠itâs really you!ââYes, il mio cuore, itâs me.

I saw them bury your body? Ho
AMANDA'S POV đI am highly disappointed at Gigiâs behavior, what she did was so not cool.And I know Mikeâs temperament, he is going to kill Jayden. I need to stop him, I have to stop.This is not the time for Gigi and Mike to be fighting.If they continue fighting like this, Danteonâs plan will easily succeed.Hmm, I guess I am not going to move out for now.I canât leave this immature Gigi, I donât think she can survive without my guide.I turned to Gigi, she is still crying and whimpering softly.âAmanda please help me stop Mikeâ she cries.âYou cheated him, do you know that before you came Mike wasnât the type to settle for one woman? But because he met you and fell in love with you, he has stopped clubbing with other women. He doesnât even give them a second glance, but how did you repay him⌠by kissing another manââI am sorry, I didnât mean to hurt him. I am sorryââYou should be telling Mike all this not meââI know, please help meâShe look so pitiful right now. Milan walk c
MIKE đI paced to and fro in front of my bed as Dr. Martin does some check up on Gigi. Maybe I am imagining it, but I keep hearing my heart making some weird sounds.Itâs almost as if some little drummers are inside drumming their drums, with every glance I take at Martinâs expression the sound increases.Amanda standing next to him, while Milan squatting next to her.Finally, Martin packed up his medicine kits and turn to me.âHow is she?â I ask anxiously.âThank God you arrived in time, she doesnât seem to be in any danger nowâ he replies.I sigh in relief. I tilt my head and saw her eyes are still closed, but her chest is moving and I know sheâs breathing.âYoung boss, I donât think she hanged herselfâ Martin said.I furrow my eyebrows,âWhat do you mean?ââAccording to my observation she was knocked out before she was hangedââKnocked out? By who?â I turned to Amanda. âAmanda, did you see anyone come inside?âShe shakes her head.âNo. No one came inââIf you didnât see anybody co
