Unconscious all this while."" Unconscious? What about work?" Catherine almost began to panic, her heart rate, from the electrocardiogram graph was starting to increase, "Catherine, you should just be calm, you're okay now."She tried to get up from the bed and sit in in a more comfortable position but William held her back from getting up, " stay put Catherine, I'll go get the Doctor."

"It's a long story." Zayne responded as he wiped his mouth with a towel. "Yeah, I'm telling you this because I know I can trust you, right?"Vanessa nodded in response as she gestured locking her lips with a padlock, "so, after we left college, I and William were still close and all we went through our masters program together and that was when he started talking about how his father wanted him to run their company after he's done with school. Yes, I and William were in the same group, dormitory, and all but there was one thing that differentiate us always, he was in a higher social class."Zayne adjusted himself, he sat up straight and then continued, "I didn't have a company to run myself, not like my father has one too or needed me to run his for him or something, it felt like after everything, it was just me by myself in the world so I had to start preparing for my future, I had to start somewhere. I would stay up late at night, brainstorming ideas. It went on like that for month

Catherine burst into loud laughter when she heard Felice's hypothesis, "you've got to be kidding me.... Nahhh I don't think so."" Oh, so you think it's impossible?" Felice questioned" It's not like I think it's impossible, it's just I don't think it could happen."" What's the difference Cathy? The other day you told me when you woke up, you saw him, sitting next to you and holding your hand while grazing his finger gently on it, what else does that spell out? Girl, bro gushing over you while you were unconscious, believe it or not."Catherine let out a sigh, I don't know, ... Look I don't want to jump into conclusions yet... I can't even imagine myself being with someone like William, he's just so controlling and he has so much pride, he thinks he's the best.""How do you think someone with pride behaves around people they genuinely love and care about?"

Jolts of electricity travelled down her spine in currents each time William's hands caressed her side. He made her want more than just his lips when he tilted his head and traveled to her neck. Goosebumps appeared all over her body, she could feel her body vibrating in excitement. Her eyes were shut tight, her mind was void. "Are you okay?"
