Austin read the paper he was holding. It was the Pathology result regarding his father and Alexa’s DNA. ‘99.99% MATCHED.’ He almost fell on his butt when he took a step backward.
Trembling… Austin crumpled the paper he was holding.‘How could Andrew do this to us?’‘Why would Max do that to my sister?’‘How could Ethan hide all this from me?’‘He never gave me any indication he knew…what’s more… I just stood by as he abused and hurt my sister… My poor sister… Athena. You’ve been through a lot these past years. Now that you’re with me, I won’t let you suffer the same experience as you had before. I will protect you at all costs and take revenge on your behalf. Please hold on, Athena. Don’t give up. Don’t let go. Dad and I are waiting for you.’ Tears kept running down to his face, and after what seemed like a lifetime, his tears stopped. Austin pulled himself together and composed himself. ‘I need to be strong for my family,’ he said as he walked back to his fa“What happened here?” Austin asked one of the men guarding the dungeon when he arrived at the hideout.“My apologies, Boss. It’s my fault.” The person in charge of the dungeon knelt in front of him.Austin’s brows knitted, as he felt annoyed with the negligence of their men. “Tell me what happened? How and when did he escape? Did you check the CCTVs? Who helped the prisoner?” He asked continuously, interrogating the person in charge of guarding the entrance of the dungeon.“It happened the same day there was a commotion on the west side of the villa. I left the dungeon because I needed to go to the bathroom. And I couldn’t find anyone to relieve me. When Ina passed by, I asked her to guard the entrance for a few minutes. Then when I came back Ina was gone.
‘Why me?’ Stephen wondered. “I am grateful for your offer, Mr. President… But I am not accepting it because you offered me a huge salary… But because I want to help Alexa recover, too.” He smiled. Albert Morris was pleased with his answer and smiled back at him. “You really are a good doctor. You’re not just handsome, but you're kind-hearted, just like everyone said. I am glad to have you in our hospital.” Stephen smiled, which had his dimples showing and his eyes squinting in delight. “Please look after my daughter, Dr. Lee.” Stephen nodded. “It’s my duty to look after every patient, sir… You don’t have to worry. Let’s just pray that she wakes up soon.” Dr. Stephen Lee is 26-year-old, 6 feet and 2 inches in height
Dr. Lee was checking Alexa’s vitals when she moaned in pain. There was a pounding in her head and it felt like it was going to tear it apart. Dr. Lee noticed her whimpering and called Maxime and Albert. Alexa opened her eyes when she felt someone looking at her. She frowned when she saw several people staring at her, smiling. A man was wearing a white gown with a stethoscope around his neck, then beside him, an old guy who looked to be in his 50s, someone who could be her father was still wearing a hospital gown, and a woman wearing a simple plain top with her hair tied up in a ponytail, looking at her worriedly. Her eyes widened upon realizing that she didn’t know the people surrounding her. “W-who are you?” She looked around, trying to recall what happened to her… but she couldn’t remember anything. She trembled in fear, imagining the worst. ‘Who are these people? Why are they here? Who am I? Do they know me? Am I crazy? What am I doing here? Did I get into an accident?
Dr. Stephen ran some diagnostic tests on Athena and found out that there was nothing wrong with her brain. Her cognitive functions were normal, and her MRI was clear. Aside from not remembering her identity and her past, her brain function was perfectly fine.He called Austin and Albert to his office to inform them of the results of his diagnosis for Athena’s condition.“Sir, I would like to inform you that Athena Morris seems to suffer from dissociative amnesia.” Austin frowned in confusion.“What does that mean?” He asked.“Well, I checked her brain for any scarring or lesions, and her results came back fine, which means her memory loss is not caused by the injuries she acquired when she had her accident. She had so much traumatic experience that her brain shut down the part that held all the memories of her identity and the past.“Is it permanent? Will her memories come back?” Albert asked curiously.“Well, this kind of amnesia is temporary. Her memories a
My Savior is a Devil Chapter 47Austin frowned when he noticed Marcus staring too intently at the women. It annoyed Austin that he was staring at Athena, then got more irritated when he saw Maxime look up, and realized that Marcus was not eyeing his sister, but her friend instead. ‘Why is he smiling at Maxime?’ He wondered.As soon as Marcus entered the room, his attention got pulled to the woman peeling the mangoes. His eyes twinkled, and it felt like his surroundings moved in slow motion. All he could see was Maxime. ‘She is so beautiful… I wonder what her name is?’“Mr. Strout, are you with us? Did you hear what we said?” Austin asked irritably, which had Marc
The men guarding the hideout were stunned upon seeing Ethan Reed confidently entering their place as if he had been there before. They got confused about what the nobleman was doing there. They stopped gossiping when they realized Ethan was their Master when they saw Willard following him.Ethan was too preoccupied to notice that he wasn’t wearing his mask until Willard handed it to him. ‘My identity has been exposed already. What’s the use of this?’ He angrily thought, so instead of wearing it, he threw the mask and walked straight to his office with a grim look on his face, closing the door with excessive force.“Ahhhh!!!!!! Ahhh!!!!!” In one swipe, all the papers on his desk, including his computer, lay scattered on the floor. He w
“Wow! Your place here is huge.” Maxime said with her mouth agape while the car approached an enormous house that looked more like a palace in front of them.“Was that a maze garden?” Marcus asked as they passed by rows and rows of hedges that formed a labyrinth.“Yes, it is. You should check it out later. Okay, here we are,” Albert informed everyone in the car as it stopped. Depositing them in what looked like a two-story boldly styled house. It was far from the city proper, but from the road, you could enjoy the magnificent view of the 1-acre plot decorated with meticulous landscaping, offering a maze on both sides. In the middle of the courtyard, a tiered stone fountain will give any visitor a treat, as they occupy one of the many areas in the spacious parking area that could easily accommodate twelve cars. ‘This just looks like another fancy prison.’ Athena frowned and wondered where the thought came from as she looked at the magnificent house.“Is this your prop
It has been a month, Albert is getting better and better every day. So he decided it was time to go back to Country P due to his responsibilities as President of the country.“Dad, are you sure you will be okay alone out there? I can go with you.” Austin asked worriedly.“I’m fine, son. Athena needs you here more than I do.” Albert smiled reassuringly.“But Dad… Maxime, Doc Stephen, and Marcus are here. I think I’m going to be okay.” Athena said.“You may need Austin with you. I’m really okay, Dad.” Athena smiled reassuringly.“No, it’s okay, my Princess. Your brother will stay here.” He looked at Austin in a stern look. “Do
