Angelo opened his eyes and saw Isabella's parents standing in front of him with Mirabella in Mrs. Monte's arms. Her eyes were red from crying and Angelo felt his heart break as he saw the dried-up tears on her face because he knew she must have gotten a big fright.As he sat upright on the bed, he felt a slight pain on the back of his head but ignored it and took Mirabella from her granny's arms as she moved closer to him. Mirabella stared at Angelo without a word while he hugged her and kissed her cheeks, "I told you not to cry anymore, baby. Your daddy is strong and so is your mummy and we both love you very much."He smiled at his inlaws and asked, "where is my wife?"Mr. Monte sat on a chair beside Angelo and sighed in relief. They had been so worried when both Isabella and Angelo lay unconscious in different wards. It had been incredibly difficult getting Mirabella to quiet down and stop crying but now that Angelo was up, they both felt relieved."Isabella is still lying unconsci
About an hour later, Angelo had a conference meeting with the specialist as well as the doctor who sat beside him. The specialist said, "well, I'm sorry, Mr. Flores but your wife's condition is indeed a very serious one. Yes, there are a few cases where patients have been able to come out from such deadly hypnotism but they are very rare. However, as the doctor may have already told you, whoever put your wife under his control has to be the one to calm her down so, you probably have to get in touch with him one way or another and let him remind her that you are her husband as well as everything else. For now, we can start from there."Angelo shook his head, "there's no way I am letting my wife go near that bastard. I am definitely going to kill him.""That would be a mistake," the specialist replied. "We do not know the effect his death would have on her, she might end up harming herself if she learns of his death so you need to tread with caution because right now, he is the only o
Angelo waited for Hamzat to be made conscious before going to stand in front of him again. As he stared at Angelo, Hamzat spat out blood from his mouth and began to laugh at him, "go ahead and kill me, Mr. Flores. No matter what you do, it will not change the fact that only I can control Isabella now. There's no need for you to be so sad or feel hopeless, I can order her to love you if you so desire."Angelo gritted his teeth in anger and balled his fist as he listened to Hamzat's words. Seeing how angry Angelo was with his one eye that wasn't covered in blood, made Hamzat laugh even harder, "no matter how upset you get, Angelo, you can't kill me. All I ask for is the hospital, it is nothing compared to how much money you have. You can also add some money for my stress.Mr. Flores, you both forced my hand otherwise, I would not have gone this far. It would be in your best interest to treat me well because Isabella will only do what I tell her and I can even order her to be your slave
Isabella recalled Hamzat's face. She recalled being told, "Hamzat is the one you love, you will do anything for him and even die for him. You trust him the most in this world. You hate Angelo Flores, he is evil and you must fight him whenever you see him. Hi, I am Hamzat."She shook her head and said to Angelo, "that's a lie. I vividly recall a different face bearing that name and you, I remember you as Angelo Flores."Angelo laughed, "young woman, how can I lie about my name? You must have hit your head during the accident and that's why you are imagining things. That name Angelo, I've never heard of it before."Isabella became confused, "what accident are you talking about?"Angelo feigned surprise, "don't tell me you don't remember the accident? Okay, if there was no accident, how did you end up here?"Isabella tried to recall being in an accident but she had no such memories. If the man in front of her was lying, then how did she end up stranded on an island?"Was she really imagi
"What do you think you are doing?" Isabella asked."I'm trying to get us help," Angelo replied. "Red is quite attractive so it's easier for someone to spot our distress flag if I put it up."Isabella stared at her thighs which were now exposed while Angelo went to the stick and brought it down, so he could tie the red cloth and hang it up again.When he was done with that, he climbed the coconut tree and fell some of the fruits before coming down. Isabella stood down staring at him in awe. When he came down, she said, "wow! That was impressive, I don't think I can climb a coconut tree.""Trust me, you can," Angelo replied."And how exactly do you know this?" Isabella asked.Angelo thought briefly and lied, "you told me on the ship." She smiled, "I seem to have said a lot to you on the ship. How did you even notice the coconut tree so quickly? I didn't know it was there?""I guess I'm just so amazing," Angelo replied with a smile.He showed Isabella how to break the coconuts on the ro
Angelo stared at Isabella in surprise, "why? Do you remember anything?""I do remember bumping into someone in a hospital with similar tattoos but I can't remember his face."Angelo became excited, "wow! That is amazing, it's progress and it means that eventually, all your memories will return."Isabella became hopeful, "do you really think so?""I am positive," Angelo replied. "When your memory gets back, it might turn out that we have unknowingly met before so let's just keep our fingers crossed."Isabella noticed that Angelo's mood had gotten better since she spoke about his tattoos. She could not tell if he was happier because she liked his tattoos or because she was able to recall something from her past. Whichever the case, she was pleased by his cheerful disposition.He picked up his clothes and said, "the weather is perfect for washing. I think you should consider taking advantage of it."Isabella had worn back her red gown when she woke up in the morning but now that Angelo h
Isabella smiled, "oh wow! Angelo, are you being serious right now?""I've never been more serious in my entire life," Angelo replied.Isabella suddenly began to have flashes. She was on a beach and a man held her hand as he proposed to her. She recalled that Angelo had said she was married before and thought that it must be her ex-husband but then she recalled the fireworks as well as the voice. It was exactly the same as that of the man in front of her. She pulled her hand away from Angelo just as he was about to put the improvised ring on her finger.Angelo stared at her in surprise, "what is it dear?" Isabella moved closer and gave Angelo her hand as she said, "I remember being proposed to on a beach and although I didn't see his face, the man's voice is the same as yours. Could my memory be playing tricks on me?"Angelo smiled, "don't worry, dear. If it is something that really happened, then it will come back to you fully. Just be patient.She nodded and caressed one side of his
Angelo caressed Isabella's cheeks, "I do not doubt your love for me, darling and I love you so much more. Now, let's go get married but after I take my bath."Isabella laughed and watched as Angelo went toward the water, brushed his teeth, and took his clothes off before taking his bath. When he was done, he put on his white shirt and black trousers. He saw that Isabella was staring at him and smiled, "I know that my shirt is not very clean but trust me, it is suitable for this occasion.”Isabella raised her hands in defense, "I never said otherwise. You look good by the way, Mr. Angelo Flores.”Angelo stood closer to the sea and said to her "it’s time to say our vows, my love!"As Isabella walked up to him with her wet hair covering the sides of her face, he stared at her and thought, "after today, we have just one day, Isabella. Tomorrow is the last day, so please come back to me because if my plan doesn't work and your memories don't return, I will be forced to go with plan B and
