CHAPTER 80 :- Insomnia"You bítçh!? I can never accept that thing as mine"" Take care of her, she is your responsibility"" I love you Mark, so very much!! ""She had a miscarriage.. She lost the baby!!""You killed your baby... You failed in your responsibility as a man."" You seize to be my son from this moment onward."No!!" Mark yelled, snapping his eyes open and jerking up from the bed. He looked around in panic and only sighed in relief, realizing he is in his room.Mark could not help but break down in tears. It's been a week since Lucy's miscarriage and he kept himself hidden at home, unable to do anything, not with the constant nightmares from that night and voices too.A week and he has been suffering from insomnia, which is the inability to sleep. How can he sleep when he keeps hearing voices and sometimes, the cry of a baby. He's been hunted by his child...This is what he gets for acting so cruel.He honestly did not know what came over him and he couldn't stop himself.
Olivia sighed for the up-tenth time, giving up on trying to make Lucy speak. This past week, she just laid up, facing the ceiling like it has suddenly become her solace. She has not said a word or even let out a single tear. She just kept drawing circles on her tommy.Olivia was extremely worried about her sister and she had no idea what to do anymore. The doctor said she's perfectly fine but still in shock and would need to remain in the hospital for further observation.There's a lot of pain bottled up in her heart and she has to let it go, Holding back her tears is of no use."Please talk to me Sister! Let it all out, I'm here to listen. You don't have to keep holding it back. please say something Lucy, you're making me worried with your silence" Olivia said did the ten thousand time already and thus time, she hoped Lucy would not just ignore her like always. She held Lucy's hand in a soft squeeze, staring at her and indirectly pleading for her to say something, just a word.For
Lucy laid quietly, staring at the doctor who kept doing his thing and had a don't smile plastered on his lips.She was kinda shocked and confused at the same time. That face, it looked really familiar, like she has seen it somewhere, but where? She couldn't place it.As much as she wanted to over look it and conclude that she's just mixing things up, she couldn't... She's held bent on finding out why he's so familiar.Like a flash, it clicked.. She recalled exactly where she saw that face. It was exactly a week ago at the dinner meeting Mark took her to.It's the stranger she had bumped into which led to her fight with Mark. What was he doing here? Obviously, it's quite a foolish questions to ask because even a lame man would clearly see that he has a white coat on with a stethoscope around his neck and that makes him a doctor, right?"Leave us!" He said to the nurses who stared at him awkwardly, but he glared at them
A MONTH LATER!After everything that happened, Mark felt like he has completely lost it. Of course he has! He has lost everything due to his carelessness. He lost his parents.. They won't even look at him twice, just like he suddenly turned into a stranger. He was ripped off his position as the CEO and every other position he held. His credit card has been frozen... He has automatically gone broke.That's less of his concern right now. His major concern is his inability to sleep at night. The only time he does is with the help of sleeping pills.He was loosing it completely.. If be doesn't speak with Lucy, he'd never get over the nemesis of karma. Karma really gas no pity at all. it's really too much for him to handle.He continued to pace to and fro in front of Lucy's apartment. He felt really antsy and he kept sweating profusely as he thought of what her reaction would be!! Would she talk to him? Would she even lis
Lucy stood against the door with her eyes tightly shut. Her heat was pounding really fast and so she tried to calm her nerves as much as she can.She couldn't believe she just had a talk with Mark. It's unbelievable."You shouldn't have talked to him if you didn't want to. I didn't want you to speak to him, that's why I lied about him being a stranger"Lucy opens her eyes, sighed and went to sit on the Sofa, Olivia did too."I know, but I just had to speak with him and make everything clear to him.. Now, he has gotten his answers from the horse's mouth... Now, he knows how much I despise him. I'm Sure he won't ever come back"Olivia sighed and shrugged. " He looks pitiful tho""I agree, so pitiful to earn everyone's sympathy. So do you understand what I mean by saying there's no better and sweeter punishment than that of Karma?.."Olivia shook her head negatively, still not underst
Olivia drove in full speed to Maynard's home after she got a text from him which seemed so scary.He had asked her to come over, saying there's something important. She tried calling him but he wasn't picking up her calls and it got her extremely worried.She rushed into his home, searching the entire living room but didn't get a glimpse of him. She has no idea why she's so worried, Maybe it's just because 9f the fact that she's curious as to what the important thing is."Maynard? Where are you?" She called but got no response."Maynard?.":She called out again and rather than getting a response, she heard a loud bang, coming from the direction of his room.Getting really scared, she rushed upstairs, taking the stairs in pairs. As she got to his room, she barged in without bothering to knock.As soon as she got in, she felt a hand pull her to a corner, startling her a bit.She expected him to look worried or something, but she found him smirking."Maynard, you...""I got you worried di
Olivia met with Maynard's gaze, staring down at her just as she woke up. She blushed really hard and moved the duvet over her face.He pulled the duvet off her face and leaned closer. "Let me stare at your face more, I can't get enough of your beauty!"Olivia scoffed and rolled her eyes. Hearing him say those words and act like an highschool lover boy sounds ridiculous."Stop being silly!!" She pushed him away and made to get off the bed but he held her arm, pulling her back, making her fall on him."Tell me, what is your one wish?" He asked, making her frown in confusion." I've always had that one wish which never changes. If I do disclose it, then it's no longer a wish"" Am I part of that wish? Or perhaps, the future? " He asked again." Why are you suddenly asking me that? " she asked." Because, I know that deep down you still find it hard to trust me most especially since the man that hurt your sister so badly is someone I call my best friend.. "Olivia laughed.." Why would you
Asking the nurse at the reception desk for a patient named Vernes Traydor, Olivia and Maynard rushed to the ward after being directed.Pushing the door open and stepping in, they halt in their movement while staring at Vernes who laid on the bed with series of medications attached to her body."Are you Maynard Sanchez?" A doctor said, turning everyone's attention to them, including Vernes."Maynard.!!" Vernes called in a weak tone.Holding Olivia's hands, Maynard moved closer to Vernes, staring at her like it's actually so unbelievable seeing her on a sick bed and being so weak.The Vernes he knows hardly ever gets sick or act so weak, it's so hard to believe."What seem to be the problem doctor?" He asked, turning away from Vernes." Well, the patient right here has been diagnosed with a liver cancer which seemed to be at it's last stage. "" What? " Both Maynard and Olivia gasped in shock. "Liver cancer!!?""Yes, liver cancer! Her health is deteriorating petty fast"Maynard glanced
