Alice’s heart began to race. : I will go in and take a look,” she said, then prepared to enter the operating room. “Hey! What are you doing, Dr. Brown? You are not dressed in a surgical gown! This is completely unprofessional.” The nurse looked at her in surprise. It was not until then that Alice realized she had been so frantic that she had forgotten common sense. Then she went to the dressing room right away to sterilize herself and put on their surgical gown. When she entered the operating room, she was still distracted. Many doctors were gathered in front of the operating table. Alice could not get near the table, and she did not dare to rush in. As a result, she was forced to stand outside the crowd. The surgical gown was heavy and made her sweat all over. She was so far away from the operating table that she couldn’t tell if the man was on it was Zayden or not, but she had the gut feeling that it was him. “What brings you here?” A nurse next to Alice asked. “I came to see
“I am not sure when he will wake up, but he will wake up soon as the surgery was successful. Still, he needs someone to take care of him these days.”“Thank you.” Alice thanked Zayden’s attending doctor before exhaling a sigh of relief. She thought, ‘Thank goodness, you’re fine, Zayden! Otherwise, I don’t know what I should do. I still have so many words to say to you and I want to have another chance to be with you again. Thank God that you didn’t just leave me like that. If you died, I would spend the rest of my life alone.’Zayden was still in the intensive care unit and showed no signs of waking up. Alice stood in the doorway for a while, looking at him. Much as she wanted to stay with him a while longer. she couldn’t, because there were still many patients waiting for her in the emergency room.Before leaving Alice called Henry, wanting him to take care of Zayden for her while she was gone, “Henry, the surgery went well, and Zayden’s fine. He is still in the ICU, but when he wake
Three days later, Adrian and Nian visited Zayden in the hospital.The bandage on Zayden’s head was still on, but he appeared to be in good spirits. He was drinking water while leaning against the bedside.As soon as Adrian walked in, he said, “Zayden, it’s me.”“Who are you?” Zayden asked in puzzlement, frowning.Adrian stopped, looked at Alice in surprise, and asked, “Huh? He doesn’t remember me?”“Zayden this is your brother,” Alice said as she shook her head and walked over to Zayden.Zayden frowned and thought for a moment, and he still couldn’t recall Adrian. Then he shook his head and said flatly, “No, I don’t remember you.”Adrian said in a disappointment, “Ah! Are you serious? I used to act like I had amnesia, and I was super good at it. Does that run in the family? You can fool others, but you cant fool me!”Zayden loo
Holding Alice tightly in his arms, Zayden rested his chin on the top of her head, saying in a low voice, “Move back home and stay with me all the time, Alice. You should live with me, because we are getting married. From now on, I will drive you to and from work everyday, and you don’t have to worry about disturbing me while I’m sleeping, because I’ll wear a soundproof headset when sleeping.”Alice widened her eyes in shock. Then turning around, she looked Zayden in the eye seriously but said in a somewhat playful tone, “What? Are you serious? Mr. Colin don’t you tell me that you forget the fact that you still need to run a big company. You have to go to work. You are the president of a big company, and you are very busy. You don’t have time to drive you and from work every day.”Zayden said gently with a smile, “Well, we have a son, so we can let him run the group. In this way, not only can I manage to keep the group functioning, but also a company you everyday.”Alice laughed and sa
Under the dim light, all Alice could see was Zayden now. Though Zayden was bald, he was still the most handsome man in her eyes.His eyes were still dazzling and clear as before. There were some fine lines around his eyes, but Alice found them quite attractive, especially when he smiled at her. Under his eyes, was his nose, which was as tall and straight as usual. As Alice gently touched his lips with her fingertips, she found that his lips felt the same as they had five years ago.“Alice you smell so good,” Nestling in her neck, Zayden praised her with his eyes closed. When he opened his eyes and met Alice’s eyes, he was happy that all Alice could see was him now, and he was more than pleased than he was burning desire was about to escape from her eyes at any second.Then inch by inch he kissed her neck, breasts, nipples, and belly. Just as Zayden moved his lips down, Alice arched her back knowingly. The moment Zayden’s lips touched her secret garden, Alice couldn’t think straight an
The following day afternoon, Zayden and Alice went to get their marriage license.They had to have their pictures taken that day. Zayden’s hair had not grown out, so Alice had to take him to the mall to get him a wig. Although it would make him look odd, it was better than having a bald head with a cut on it.“Smile, come on, please ma’am lean in closer to your husband.”Both of them laughed happily as the camera captured the movement.Alice had never imagined herself marrying Zayden in such a hurried manner. But then she realized that sometimes people do things out of a moment of impulse.The rain had just stopped and the sun was shining on the ground as they left. Alice could not take her eyes off their marriage license. Zayden took her hand in his and led her to the trunk where he covered her eyes.“What exactly are you doing? Is this a surprise?”“Yes, I have got a surprise for you,” Zayden said.Zayden released his hand after a few seconds and said, “Okay, you can open your eyes
When everyone heard this, they froze.Alice smiled as she took the marriage license from her bag, saying, “The day after Zayden was discharged from the hospital, we went to get married. We are legally a couple now, so you don’t have to be worried about us.”Everyone then passed around their marriage license. Maggie sighed with relief as the last person handed it back to Alice. She exclaimed, “After all these years, you have been through a lot. What makes me happy is that you are finally married. We finally don’t have to worry about you guys anymore.”Trevor said with a nod, “Right! My wife will no longer have to keep anything from me for Alice.”“So we’re not the next couple to marry. And you two might need to speed up,” Alice looked at Adrian and said Nian thoughtfully.“What can I say? I didn’t see it coming at all,” Adrian exchanged a glance with Nian and saidAlthough Alice thought having a marriage license was sufficient, and there was no need for Zayden and her to hold a wedding
After the party was over, Zayden and Alice returned to their bedroom, feeling happy and exhausted at the same time.When Alice was removing her makeup in front of the mirror, Zayden, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, looked her in the eye and said, “Alice, I’m still thinking about what Maggie said to me during the party. As you know, I still have difficulty in remembering things. So, I hope that you can tell me what has happened between us in the past!”“Are you sure you want to hear it, now?” Alice asked while wiping her eyebrows.“Yes, I am sure. I want to hear it from you instead of others.”“Here it goes. Long story short. Years ago, before we nearly got married, I got kidnapped and broke up with you after I was rescued, because back then you made me feel insecure,”“Okay,’ Zayden frowned, motioning for Alice to continue.“And later on, I left England with Eliana. And then I went to France for medical school, and I didn’t come back for you and Max until five years later!”“W
“Mom, don’t come over!” Eliana and Max yelled at the same time.“Alice, you are such a lucky bitch. You have such two wonderful children. I have worked hard my entire life, but now I have nothing in the end,” Jessica said in an envious tone.‘Did you just mention children? Could be that you suddenly wanted to meet Gary before you die because he’s your only family?’ At the thought, Alice gently asked “Jessica, do you want to meet Gary?”Instead of answering Alice's question, Jessica remained silent. She then bowed her head and began trembling.“I will call him right now. He just left, so he will come back soon,” Alice added.“Is Gary really coming back?”“Yeah. He’s doing great this year. He has always get high grades on his test and he is popular school. He is just as smart as you are.” Alice praised Jessica in the hopes of changing her mind.“He didn’t want to see me. I tried to talk to him this year, but his maid always mistook me for a beggar and told me get lost.” Jessica spoke in
A woman in a janitor’s uniform rushed out of the tool room as Eliana and Charlotte left the restroom. The woman then pressed a fruit knife against Eliana’s neck. Eliana had no idea what was going on because it happened so quickly. She could not stop shaking when she felt the cold metal against her skin.Charlotte was so scared that she screamed. Then she immediately covered her mouth. After hearing her voice many people made their way to the restroom. However, no one dared to approach them, they all stood back and watched.Eliana grabbed the woman’s arm from behind as she wanted to wrestle her to the ground. She thanked Alice were forcing her to take so many taekwondo classes at this moment.However, the woman realized what Eliana was trying to do. She whispered in a husky voice, “Don’t do anything. I will slit your throat if you move one more time. By then your blood will flow like a water flower and you will die tragically.”The woman’s voice was so husky that it made Eliana feel li
Dominic saw Eliana the moment she walked into the room. He looked at her as if he could not take his eyes off her. Eliana shone like a star that was even more dazzling than the bright chandelier. Whenever he looked at her, his heart beat faster, and his palms sweat.Ever since Eliana entered the hall, Dominic had been looking at her. He watched her as she walked around the venue and to greet the guests and he was disappointed when he noticed that many young boys were looking at her as much as he was.Later on, the host asked Eliana and Max to come on the stage. They sang the birthday song together and then catch the multi-tiered cake. Zayden then announced that the party was started.It was not until then that Eliana was free. When she saw him after she left the stage, Eliana moved quickly towards Dominic. Every step she took seemed to step into his heart, causing it to beat like a drum.Dominic had been waiting for Eliana to become an adult for the past two years, but she had no idea
After dinner, Eliana comes back to her apartment. She took a quick shower before going to bed. As she lay down in bed, she checked her phone and found tons of unread messages in the Team Wolf Chat Group. Eliana was supposed to join her teammates in celebrating their victory after the game, but she didn’t because her parents showed up unexpectedly.Eliana’s teammates not only posted pictures from dinner in the chat room, but they also mentioned for several times. Eliana was about to go to bed after replying to everyone's message, but the moment she discovered Dominic had also texted her, she perished her thoughts.Dominic had become extremely busy since he retired from the e-sports circle two years ago and returned to London to take over his family’s business. Recently, instead of having time to play games with her, he could only teach her practical strategies occasionally.Dominic returned to Rose City this time just to watch their game. However, Dominic and Eliana didn’t even have ti
After the game was over, the lights in the hall lit up and the host invited two teams onto the stage after congratulating the winners.Max and his parents took a seat in the first row. People around them began to whisper in surprise, and they only stopped when Team Wolf showed up on the stage.The stage was well-lit, but the auditorium was dark, so Eliana had no idea her parents, whom she had not seen in a long time, had arrived on the scene.Standing on this stage, Eliana smiled while waving at the audience. She sparkled like a diamond and nothing seemed to be able to dim her light.Meanwhile, Alice looked at Eliana as if she was her biggest fire. She felt proud of Eliana from the bottom of her heart.Initially, Alice was furious when she learned that Eliana wanted to become an e-sports player. However, she began to regret it after Eliana became a world champion. ‘If I stopped her back, then I would have stopped her from succeeding. Thank goodness I didn’t do so. Alice thought to her
Two years later, an important match took place in a hall in the center of Rose City. Eliana’s team, the Wolfs would play against a team from another country.Teen Wolf had previously won the world championship twice while their opponent was a dark horse team that had only recently formed. As a result, game lovers from both countries eagerly anticipated this match.At the same time, this was the most crucial match for Eliana since she joined Team Wolf two years ago. She would be a member of the world championship team if she won the game. However, she would lose her best chance to win the World Championship if she lost it. Therefore, Eliana took this match very seriously.Because the Dream High Group was one of the match sponsors, the live room was packed with people Eliana knew. Although ticker prizes had risen to several thousand dollars per person, Max could still obtain tickets for his family.At that moment, Trevor, Maggie, and their children sat in the center of the front row. Da
Henry was very efficient. Two days later, he managed to place the information he had gathered about Dominic on Max’s desk.Then Max started reading it carefully.Dominic Deleon was Dominic's full name. He was born and grew up in London, and he was twenty years old. His great-grandfather was a politician who once held a high govt position. His grandfather was a successful businessman who owned a large corporation. As for his father, he was a businessman who made the company well.Dominic was the family’s only child, but he was uninterested in business. He fell in love with e-sports in college and soon signed up with an E-sports company. Later, he made it to one of the best teams in the country and was named captain due to his outstanding performance. He once led his team to a world championship victory.Before moving to Rose City Dominic attended a university in London. However after he fell out with his parents, he transferred to a college in Rose City because several of his teammates
“Do you really want to know about it?” Dominic asked after some thought.“Yes!” Eliana said.“I might tell you after we get to know each other better. But, you know, we are not even friends now,” He said.“Well, I’m not interested in that anymore.” Eliana said. She became impatient, so she stopped talking to Dominic.“Are you angry?” Dominic asked.“No.”“I know you won’t get angry that easily.”“That’s because I know getting angry easily is bad for my health. It’s nothing to do with you.”Hearing Eliana’s words, Dominic burst out laughing. He knew Eliana loved sashimi, so he gave her that plate. “Well, we are friends now,” he said.At that time, Charlotte was talking to Kevin and Max was talking to Jason. On the other hand, Max kept a close eye on Dominic and paid attention to his every move.Dominic quickly realized this, so he turned to look at Max. The two boys then locked their gaze on each other. Max appeared weary and hostile whereas Dominic didn’t seem to be bothered by Max’s
Alice nearly fell on her knees and then stood up straight with all her strength. Seeing that Zayden was in more pain. He wanted to rush to Alice and help her out of the situation at that moment, but he had to wait for the right time. Therefore, he stood in the crowd, silent.“I’m just a doctor. I’m not that capable enough to defeat mercenaries.” Alice said, through gritted teeth.Hearing that Victoria kicked her once more. “Are you trying to fool me? I’m sure you know some special forces! Isn’t Adrian Taylor is your brother-in-law.”Alice let out a painful groan. She took a deep breath and said, “I had no idea you know it. But sadly, none of them in Flesoil.”“That’s fine. I can wait! They will agree to my request, as long as you are my hostage.”Zayden’s gun was in his pocket, but he didn’t have the guts to touch it.At that time, Victoria’s gun remain pressed against Alice’s temple, making him nervous. His hands were sweating, and he was even more nervous than he had when he saved E
