Cap.37: A hope for Hanna's brother.“There's a chance, supposedly, but I can't give absolute certainty, as it depends a lot on the patient.” The doctor hesitated to continue.” In many cases, after recovery, people still remain in a coma for a while. In other situations...” He took a deep breath before continuing.” There is a problem.“It is serious? Asked Morgan, apprehensively.“Yes, and you need to be prepared to take that risk now that we are already doing the tests.” The doctor explained.” At one point during the treatment, due to a side effect, the patient will present a problem that will cause a significant worsening of their condition.“Then stop the treatment! Exclaimed Morgan.“It's not that simple.” The doctor calmed him down.” This worsening, in fact, is a good sign, since it is the medicine treating diseased cells and supposedly already contaminated cells. The problem that appears will be combated by the medicine, and the patient may never have to worry about this disease
Chapter 38 persecution of daughter.“Hello, Danica...” muttered Maya, her face twisted in disdain as she analyzed Hanna. She, in turn, imposed an unshakable posture, demonstrating that she was not at all intimidated, even with her sore hip. With slow and steady steps, he walked to the dresser, where he leaned lightly.“Why are you here?” Maya asked with a harsh tone.“The question should be mine, not yours.” Hanna replied dryly.“Actually, you're not welcome here. And as for what you saw this morning…” he paused dramatically, his eyes twinkling with irony, “it was just a misunderstanding.“Oh yes?” Hanna sighed, a smirk forming on her lips.” And what could this misunderstanding be?“As you know, Morgan and I...” Maya began, but was abruptly interrupted.“Morgan and you are nothing!” Hanna assured, looking at her firmly. Maya raised her eyebrows, surprised by the young woman's confidence.“How dare you? Do you really think you have the right to speak in this house? A maid!” he exclaime
Chapter 39: What's next?Lory was the first to appear in the hallway after the commotion, already bringing Hanna's coffee. Right away...“Hanna... I mean... Danica!” Lory corrected herself, biting her lip apprehensively.” What happened?” he asked at the same time as Hanna tried to help Maya.“I don't know, I just woke up... Everything happened so fast...” Hanna sighed, still assimilating the situation.“Don't come closer to me, you hypocrite, mother... It hurts so much!” lamented Maya, at the same time that Liara was already striding down the corridor.“What did you do?” Liara lunged at Hanna, pushing her away from Maya.“But I didn't do anything... In fact, I don't even know what's going on...” Hanna muttered, confused.“What happened?” Liara asked Maya when she saw her arms marked by the hot coffee.“It was her!” Maya shouted, accusing Hanna.” Yesterday we had a disagreement, she misunderstood me and that's why today I thought about apologizing, but she just threw the tray at me...”
Cap.40: Hanna's humiliation.“I want to see how long you will continue with this petulance.” Liara smiled cruelly, her eyes fixed on Hanna over her shoulder.Continuing with her arrogant stance, Liara led Hanna to a locker room, where she handed her a new uniform.“I'm not going to wear that!” Hanna protested, crossing her arms angrily.“Do you have a choice by any chance?” Liara retorted, furious, still holding the uniform outstretched. When Hanna refused to pick it up, Liara grabbed her by the hair and dragged her to the bathroom.“Put it on now!” she ordered, her voice full of contempt.” Do you think you have any privileges here? Both Morgan and her aunt left her with me. Morgan didn't care about your situation at all, don't fool yourself into thinking he cares about you. He's there taking care of his fiancée.Liara's words lit a fire of anger in Hanna's eyes. She clenched her fists, vowing to get revenge on Morgan for his betrayal.“I don't mind...” she murmured, resigned, as she
Cap.41: two prisoners cannot help each other.The security guard took a different route than Lory, only to reveal that he was following her through the same place. As soon as she reached the door, he locked it, preventing her from leaving.Lory hadn't yet realized it was locked. She just sat on the couch, waiting for time to pass so she could go out and go after Hanna.At the bottom of the abandoned garden, Hanna looked at the bucket and brush with disdain. She knew the work was hard.“Well... at least I'll try, even if I don't like it...” she thought to herself, walking through the slime without having any idea how to clean it with just a brush. She even tried, but the thick layer and density of it felt like slime that made her stomach turn.“No! I can't stay here, even today I was going to the hospital...” she lamented, giving up scrubbing the floor.She climbed the stairs and tried to get in, but to her surprise, it was locked. As if he hadn't already imagined it, it was obvious th
Cap.42: Morgan notices Danica (Hanna)'s absenceThe afternoon was agonizing, but Hanna didn't give up. Fighting desperately for a way out, she shouted "help!". Her throat was dry and she knocked hard on the door, but with each attempt, the immensity of the place discouraged her. Darkness fell slowly, shrinking the space and intensifying her fear. The stuffy air of the place suffocated her.In her room, Liara, with a cruel smile on her lips, watched the night take over the house without a care in the world. Maya, with a complicit look on her face, accompanied her mother."Mom... don't you think you should go and get that... um... "Raggedy"?" asked Maya, balancing a glass of wine while her feet rested on the arm of the armchair she was relaxing in."No way! She must stay exactly where she is," replied Liara, combing her hair with an air of determination."But what if Morgan gets suspicious? With him thinking about the deal, couldn't that mess everything up?" asked Maya, thoughtfully."N
Cap.43: Better late than never.He called some security guards. In a deep and tense voice, he asked where Liara had taken Lory's niece. The men, stunned by the situation, denied knowledge. They only reported that the girl had not left the mansion. From this, Morgan deduced that she was still upstairs.“With determination, he ordered the security guards to look for her. They nodded silently and headed towards the rooms, searching every corner meticulously.“Don't make any noise,” Morgan warned them before they headed up the stairs. “ And if Liara sees them, don't reveal the reason for the search. She can't know what's going on.The security guards, aware of the gravity of the situation, moved cautiously through the mansion, each step echoing in the immensity of the house, while apprehension hung in the air.After searching every corner of the mansion, the search for Hanna proved fruitless. Morgan, filled with an unsettling dread, remembered the secluded area in the back, a place off-li
Chapter 44: Foggy DawnThe night passed in vigilant watchfulness for Morgan. Beside Hanna, he prepared a simple and nutritious homemade soup for her to eat without risk of choking. Only after confirming that the fever had subsided did he retire to the bedroom. It was already three in the morning, and weariness was evident in his eyes.Upon waking, Hanna was met with a silhouette against the light of the rising sun. Sitting at the edge of the bed, the figure watched her in silence. Before recognizing Amethyst, Hanna ensured she was in her room, breathing a sigh of relief for being safe."Good morning, Miss Danica," Amethyst greeted her gently. "I prepared breakfast for you. You must be famished. Don't worry, I don't intend to harm you," she assured, noticing Hanna's slight fear."You are Morgan's mother, aren't you?" Hanna asked, still weak and confused."Yes, my name is Amethyst.""Sorry, I didn't mean to cause any trouble..." she murmured."I don't know what's going on. I prefer to s
