"Miss,I noticed you were uncomfortable with those two people,why didn't you leave their presence since you don't like him?" The driver asked curiously causing Layla to raise her head up from the car's window.

"You would not understand," Layla said with a smile. No one would understand what she was facing. The driver seeing that she was not willing to talk about it, tactfully remain silent.

They soon got to the Brooks' mansion and Layla sighed out loudly as she stepped into the house. She only felt warmth in this place and she tightly tried to grasp it.

"You are home," grandpa Brooks said with a smile as he welcomed her with open arms. On seeing the warm gaze of the grandpa, Layla felt hot tears in her eyes.

He would rather they have a grand wedding as that would be the biggest slap to her enemies."Or you can tell me what your dream wedding is," he probed.

He didn't want to flop."Actually,I have always dreamed of having a beach wedding,you know, feeling the sea breeze hit me,it would be a novel feeling to me," she said, giving him a bright smile.He was stunned by her smile and couldn't get himself back as he stared at her deeply."When do

    She was about to stand up but she fell and fainted. "Layla!!" Miles screamed in fright and shock. Grandpa Brooks rushed out from wherever he was as he stared at the figure who was in the floor in shock. His face turned pale immediately as he tried to regulate his breathing. "Quick,call the ambulance," he ordered the maid who was lingering around. She nodded swiftly as she called the hospital requesting for an ambulance. Miles was already cradling her as his eyes turned red. Her body was frighteningly hot. "Layla, please be fine,I don't want to lose you,I know we haven't spent a lot of time together,but please don't leave me," Miles said as tears dropped from his eyes. This was the first time the cold CEO acted really vulnerable. "The ambulance is on there way,you just need to be calm," grandpa Brooks said as he rubbed his back.

"Grandpa,I would call the driver to pick you up,you don't need to stress yourself,at your age,you need to take a rest," Miles said and grandpa Brooks nodded in affirmation. He didn't want his grandson to be disheartened. He knew that Miles might appear cold but he valued familiar love to anything. "Alright," he said and Miles brought out his phone to call the driver. Grandpa Brooks stared at the female figure on the bed and his heart shook slightly. She looked deathly pale as though she was not breathing anymore. If it wasn't for the rhythmic rise and fall in her chest,he would have thought she was no more. He couldn't believe that an allergic reaction could be as life
