★★★ “I need clarification, Jess,” Chris closed the door after stating this, creating a conversational area for them both. Although approaching her this way was not his first thought, since it was disrespectful. But her attitude was suddenly washing over his tolerance, and he was unable to maintain composure and ignore the situation. “But why was it necessary to close the door? Ben and Cornell could arrive at any time, and finding us behind the door cannot be acceptable. Their assumption will not cling to a typical fact, and I do not like it at all," Jessica spoke quickly, looking at Chris to see if there was any change had transpired in him. Despite the fact that they had known each other for a long time, they lived together for at least two months before she moved out, but now she unexpectedly felt the need to get away from Chris. “Why do you insist on making me feel as though I am tying you to me? We are friends and we used to share one another's happiness and sorrows. I assure
★★★“I went into his room one day and found another compartment that was open that day. I stepped into that place unintentionally and discovered so many creepy; Black substances, loads of medicines. Then I heard him using profanity while speaking to someone on the phone and telling the person he wanted someone's life, which meant killing someone. Before I could leave that place, Chris caught me and chastised me for sneaking him; he also threatened to inform my mother that I was picking up bad habits,”Cornell described the terrible event he had seen, but he kept it a secret from everyone—especially his mother, who viewed Chris as a close friend and frequently expressed how fortunate she was to have him around—for without Chris, they might have ended up on the road.“What?” Ben initially questioned with a bewildered expression, but when he realized Chris' room did include a compartment—which he never allowed anybody to access—his expression transformed to one of struggle. Intoxicate
★★★ “His body became unstable as a result of severe stress; perhaps you will be able to determine what is giving him discomfort. Aside from that, I had the impression that he had given a lot of blood that had not been compensated and that duress had caused his balance to become irregular.” The cause of Chris' unexpected unconsciousness was found after the doctor checked the pulses. Ben turned his gaze in the direction of Jessica, who was listening intently to the doctor and keeping an anxious eye on her feet. On her expression, remorse was evident and deeply ingrained. There was no need to explain to him who was the source of Chris's cause for concern, but he had no idea what was triggered in such a little period between them that such a major incident had occurred. Jessica stepped closer to the doctor, who had risen from his bed. He was ready to depart. But before leaving, he had taught them what they needed to know in order to care for the patient. "Approximately how long will i
★★“Gifts!” Jessica's eyes narrowed in perplexity at Liam's grandmother before settling on the collection of presents lying on the ground next to the couch and wrapped in shimmering paper. They had not caught her attention due to her brain being occupied by the thought of Liam's grandmother's visit and the reason behind it. Besides, she had no energy to bicker with Liam's Grandmother, as a result, Jessica analyzed the situation.Cornell cocked his head up to get a better look at the gifts that had been provided for him, and he was utterly perplexed as to why gifts were being given to him.“Why did you bring this gift for me? It is not my birthday or any other event where I need gifts," Cornell questioned Liam's grandma while researching the likelihood of such grandeur. He was completely ignorant of the personalities of such, though, who might be rude one moment and then show affability the next.Liam's grandmother briefly coughed before continuing, trying to contain her embarrassm
★★★ “We are unable to go with you because Chris is not in good health. But you and Liam could visit us anytime,” Cornell politely declined Liam's grandmother while keeping Chris in mind. It would not be grateful to Chris if he went to Liam's place to spend time disregarding Chris' health. Cornell, no matter how he felt about him, couldn't deny his importance in their lives, so he wanted to be a little respectful and they could always go to Liam's house altar. A dense cloud of discouragement filled Liam's grandmother's eyes as she fixed her attention on Cornell for quite some time before responding, "I understand; you care about your father." A weight instilled a sensation in her that she was unhappy thinking Cornell was not Liam's son. But she was not quite prepared to accept it. "You are welcome to my place whenever you want," she added, taking a big breath and she rose from her seat, "It's becoming late, and I have to get back. I trust you'll enjoy my offerings." Liam's grandma
★★★“There was a doctor there who was the subject of numerous complaints alleging that he had used DNA in some appalling ways and that he was proud of his achievement. He was able to change someone else's DNA.”Jaiden admitted, his gaze fixed on the glass in his fingers. This one notion had been gnawing at him since last night. Despite his efforts to contact many people in that particular hospital, no one was able to provide him with any information on the doctor's whereabouts. Everyone claimed that after being released from prison, the doctor evaporated into thin air.“Do you really think Chris could pull off something like that?”Liam asked inquisitively, his eyes displaying a different excitement as if he had found a justification to expose Chris in front of Jessica, at which point he would waste no time in breaking his hands and legs.“No, it is not a matter of belief; if it were, I would have stayed with the report. I only want to do it for you, but you must guarantee that o
★★★ The room was filled with warm sunlight that filtered through the binds and landed on the bed's edge where her hand was resting. As a result, Jessica opened her eyes and moaned annoyingly. According to Jessica, the morning came rather early. Her eyes still felt heavy to her. When she turned to her side she noticed Cornell sitting there holding his tablet. “What time did you awaken?” she inquired. “Not for long. I have also washed my teeth. The bathroom, by the way, is rather lovely. Chris must have spent a lot of money on such a house," Cornell speculated. “Has nobody arrived to wake us up?" Jessica asked as she left the bed. “Nah, and I discovered that the house was quite silent," Cornell stated. "Maybe everyone is downstairs," Jessica remarked as she entered the lavatory. “Perhaps, no one is home,” Cornell murmured to himself. Chris was seated alone at the breakfast table when Jessica and Cornell showed up, and Ben was nowhere to be seen. “Good morning, Chris! How do you
★★★“I do not work for anyone, so I am not Liam's man. Also, why would he harm his fiancée in this way? I suppose he is the hero who will come here to save you without paying attention to his life... Don't you think he will come?"Vlad grinned as he made the remark on purpose since he found Maggie's shocked expression humorous.As soon as Maggie heard a deep, chilly voice, she forced herself to hold her breath because she felt as though a demon from hell had materialized in front of her to steal her soul after toying with her. She also couldn't control her shaking. The only sensation circulating throughout her body was terror, which made it impossible to gauge how much fear she was feeling.Her pitch wavered as she inquired about, while her tears gave in,"Do you want money? If that is what you are searching for, find my family and call them; otherwise, I cannot help you."“Are you sure your family is rich enough to pay money as per our demand?” Vlad asked as he had taken a plac
