Paige:A Second Chance Romance Fifty five -Jace
Jace's POV"What, how come? was she sick or something?" Paige asked shocked, I wouldn't blame her tho she knew nothing about it,"She was diagnosed with lung cancer but I just found out two months ago" I replied watching her eyes go wide,"And you didn't say anything" she shot at me her expression slowly morphing into one of anger,"I am sorry, I thought you wouldn't want to know as we aren't on the best of terms, and you were battling with Alex's attack and finding Alvin I didn't want to add to it" I defended feeling worse than I did earlier,"You call that an excuse really?" she snapped," I am sorry I didn't tell you" I apologized not wanting to say anything else that may fuel her anger,"You should go and see her" She spoke up her voice a bit calmer,"There is no way I will leave you and my son who is battling for his life" I replied adamantly,Blowing out her cheeks she muttered to herself like she couldn't believe her ears,"Your mum is dying and you don't want to go see her?" s

Paige's POV"So can we see him now?" I asked the doctor anxiety buried deep in my chest,"Yes but I would advise maybe just two people at a time" he answered warmly,"Thank you" I appreciated with a small smile,"It's my job remember, please meet me in my office when you are done with your son," he said courteously,"Is there any problem?" I asked struggling to block the negative thoughts that tried to surface, there is no time for that,"We will talk when you are ready" he replied curtly turning to leave before I could bombard him with all my horrid thoughts,"What's wrong?" Mum asked noticing my demeanor,"The doctor asked to see me, what if something is wrong" I voiced out shakily as I battled with my inner self,"I believe everything is okay, you can go and see him now, you need to calm your nerves, we will wait for you, I will make sure no one goes in before you" Mum soothed and I smiled a little at her although it didn't reach my eyes,"Thank you" I appreciated."Sit please" the

Paige's POV"So you are trying to say Alvin woke up asking for his brother?" Mum asked her shock mirroring mine earlier,"Exactly, he said he usually sees him in his dreams" I replied,"His dreams?" Carlos repeated,"This is all just confusing" Jace expressed and I couldn't agree more,"You said Brandon and Lisa are flying down here with Alex right?" Mum asked Jace,"Yes, they left for the airport over an hour ago" Jace replied and Mum modded in response,"I just hope nothing happens" I murmured,"Nothing happens? what do you mean?" Carlos asked cocking his head to the side,"Remember we still don't know who we are dealing with and what their motives are, with the stunt we just pulled we are not guaranteed any form of safety" I explained,"You are right, I would send some people to the airport to ensure they get here unharmed" Carlos assured,"Thank you" I appreciated with a warm smile,"Anything for you little sis" he replied with a wink running off before I could retaliate, smart mo

Alvin's POV(Two years ago)"I would advise you to start cleaning that up, the earlier the better, remember you still have to prepare dinner" Madam Linda yelled at Claire while we all sat and watched, it hurt to watch but we all couldn't do anything other than sit and watch,"So..ry Ma'am" Claire stuttered grabbing a towel to clean up the mess Ryan made, he sat there with tears in his eyes watching but I couldn't blame him either, he had been sick for three days now and no one wanted to attend to him, hence why Claire had to go out of her way to get me my first inhaler when I had my first asthma attack, it almost cost her life but in the end it pushed Madam to get me a good supply of it that would last a while at least. I am guessing his time here is almost up because from all Claire has told me, they only take care of the ones that would be here much longer, maybe that's why the inhaler was gotten for me,"Can I help you?" I offered once Madam Linda was out of sight,"Alvin, I ca

Paige's POV I stared at my sons in awe as they explained all their encounters together to date,"So you guys have known about yourselves for two years now?" I asked surprised,"Yes Mum" Alex replied, he sat beside Alvin on the hospital bed, "Why didn't you say anything?" I asked,"I didn't think you would believe me, we both did, so we agreed we would find a way to show you but we also couldn't come up with a way to do that either, I only found out he was in trouble last night but I didn't know how to reach you" he replied his head bent as he spoke like he wasn't so proud of his actions,I glanced around the room my gaze landing on everyone slowly, Carlos noticed first and he quickly got the memo walking out and everyone followed suit leaving Jace, the boys, and I in the room,"You don't need to feel bad, I understand" I cooed walking over to the bed to join them, I sat at the foot of the bed making sure Alvin was comfortable and no pressure was added to any of his wounds,"But if I

Jace's POV"I heard you are back in New York now, typical of you to disappear without letting your dearest father know" his voice came in as I picked up the call, sometimes I wonder why I still do,"What do you want?" I snapped angrily,"Not the best way to talk to your father if you ask me, can't a father check up on his son anymore?" he replied making me scoff,"I will not ask again"I shot at him,"Well, your mother's birthday is this weekend I was wondering if we could do a little something for her," he said shocking me,"You want to arrange a party for Mum?" I asked skeptically, something is wrong,"Yes, why do you sound so surprised, I know I have not been the best and I treated her horribly but I have realized that she barely has a month to go why can't we just grant her one wish, all of us together as one big happy family" he answered,"We can never be a happy family not after everything you have done" I shot at him, who even told him he could play the good father after everyt

Paige's POV"A partyy, really" Lisa squealed a bright smile on her face as we walked into the mall, even with Jace's protests and arguments about it being just a family party I decided to still get a new dress for it, I didn't know why but ever since Jace and I agreed to go I have been extra nervous, what if she doesn't like me, I know his father doesn't like me already but what if I could change his mind, I could change the way he sees me, put the past in the past and all,"Why do you sound even more excited than the kids" I said chuckling at her childish behavior,"Oh please don't blame me, everything has been so serious lately with all this finding Alvin and being safe stuff, don't blame me for getting excited over a party" she replied rolling her eyes,"It's a family party with kids so don't make it sound like it is some wild party" I shrugged,"Whatever, it's still a party anyways," she said with a small pout making me laugh, sometimes I forget how silly she can be,"I am so gett

Jace's POV"How are you feeling today?" I asked Mum standing at the foot of her bed,"I am happy to see you" she replied plastering a small smile on her face but you could tell it was just an act, she looked drained,"I want you to meet someone," I said turning to look at Paige who stood by the door, she looked nervous and I don't even know why, it was just my mum, this was not even their first time meeting,"Paige" Mum called out softly as her gaze fell on her,"How are you Ma?" Paige asked meekly slowly coming closer, "I have been better, but I feel a lot more alive now you both are here" Mum answered her smile widening, Paige beamed at her going to sit by her bedside,"The kids are downstairs but they would be here any moment from now, I am sure you would be happy to meet them too," Paige said, "I would love to" Mum replied maintaining her bright smile, I watched the interaction between them sadly, the two women in my life that I was supposed to protect and treat with care so far

Jace's POV"I am only doing this because I know you mean well but if anything goes wrong even the doctors cannot save you" Lisa threatened as she pulled out her phone from her phone to call Paige, Brandon, and Lisa had helped me set up balloons and other decorations to make it more special, I stared at the bouquet I had specifically requested from the same florist I bought the first flowers I ever bought Paige on the day I asked her out on our first date, it feels like forever since then. This accident made me realize that life is indeed short and I am ready to spend the rest of my days making Paige see how important she is to me,"I promise to do it right" I assured not missing the silent smile on Brandon's face at Lisa's words,"The fear in your eyes is perfect proof that you know I am not kidding about this" she replied, a look of contentment on her face probably because she was so sure I took her threat seriously,"Exactly" I muttered rolling my eyes,"Paige, you have to come quic
Paige:A Second Chance Romance Eighty one -Paige
Paige's POV"Mum, mum" I called out from the sitting room panic filling me as I was greeted with silence, it was only a few minutes past 8 pm, she wouldn't have gone to bed so soon,"Mum" I continued yelling heading towards her room but I stopped in my tracks when I heard hushed voices coming from down the hall where here room was, grabbing the closest flower vase I could find, I slowly headed towards her room trying to even my breathing,"Mum?" I whispered as I got to the door, when I didn't get a reply, I took a deep breath before pushing the door preparing myself for the worst."What the hell?" I exclaimed not expecting the sight before me,"I didn't think you would be back for another hour sweetie, what's wrong?" Mum quickly said sitting up from the bed where she lay with Dad, no soothsayer was needed to know what they had just done, their littered clothes were enough evidence,"Lisa didn't call you? Cause I remember her telling me you had called and she said I would be coming hom

Jace's POVHer grip on my hand loosened as she stared at me hard with both shock and pain in her eyes,"What do you mean by who am I ?" she asked dropping my hands,"You don't remember me?" she asked again shaking her head frantically like she couldn't believe her ears,"Am I supposed to?" I asked staring at her, her brows slowly folded as a frown formed on her face,"Jace, please tell me this is a joke" she muttered tears forming in her eyes,"I don't understand, I feel like I am missing something here" I continued maintaining the confusion that was written on my face,"Obviously, Me, how can you forget me? I am going to call the doctor, something is definitely wrong" she cried, heading to the door, the pain on her face indescribable. ~~~~I couldn't make out the conversation she was having with the doctor due to the distance between us but from the look on Paige's face, it seemed like the doctor wasn't giving her any positive news,
Paige:A Second Chance Romance Seventy nine-Paige
Paige's POVMy whole body felt cold as his words slowly sank, he doesn't remember me...he doesn't remember me??"What do you mean by who am I?" I asked dropping his hands as shock and confusion took over,"You don't remember me?" I asked again in disbelief trying to fight the truth that was staring at me,"Am I supposed to?" He asked staring at me with so much shock and confusion, there wasn't a glint of recognition in his eyes, and the pain in my heart grew as I realized I wasn't dreaming,"Jace, please tell me this is a joke" I pleaded as my eyes stung from unshed tears,"I don't understand, I feel like I am missing something here" he said staring at me like I had suddenly grown two heads,"Obviously, Me, how can you forget me? I am going to call the doctor, something is definitely wrong" I cried out walking to the door. ~~~~"I can't tell what the problem is, we have run several tests on him and none of the results show any sign or t

Paige's POV"He was here a few hours ago insisting that he must see his sons but with the suspicions and everything we couldn't let him anywhere close to you guys and now he is dead?" I said asking no one in particular, the body was indeed confirmed to be Mr.Russo's body, apparently, the body was dropped there exactly an hour after he had left the hospital in anger, but that wasn't the scariest part of it all, excluding the bullet to the head that must have killed him, there was a writing on his back, that must have been inscribed with something very sharp to have achieved the cursive writing,'You three just got lucky, unfortunately, your luck didn't extend to him'"I guess we were wrong about our suspicions then" Brandon muttered, the cop had stayed to gather all the information he could from everyone before leaving assuring us that he would keep in touch, Jay had woken up a few minutes after that and we had to fill him in on everything,"Someone outside our family is after us and f
Paige:A Second Chance Romance Seventy Seven-Paige
Paige's POV"Luckily, he didn't sustain any primary blast injury from the explosion, just secondary injuries, he has a severe head injury hence the surgery, a dislocated arm, and a few injuries to his soft tissues but we were able to stabilize him although we would still need to keep an eye on him for at least a week to be sure we didn't miss any injuries. Injuries gotten from explosions may not be noticed until it late as they are usually internal injuries " the doctor informed writing down what I presume to be Jace's prescriptions as he spoke,"Will he be okay?" I asked trying to calm my heart, he is stable now at least,"Well, for now, we can only hope that he recovers quickly and he doesn't have any relapse" he answered stretching to hand me the prescription,"Just give it to the nurse by the reception, she knows what to do" he instructed,"Thank you" I appreciated getting up to leave,"Your husband is a real fighter, most people wouldn't have even made it to the hospital with the

Unknown POV"Just one job and you couldn't do it right, huh?" I yelled at the good-for-nothing assassin I hired to get rid of those boys,"I didn't think they would notice the bomb early enough to escape" he cried out, the blood dripping to the floor from the knife I rooted deep into his left arm which was the only thing preventing me from putting a bullet through his head, he is in pain at least,"And you had to do it in front of the old man's damn company? Did you know I was in there, what if the explosion had caught the attention of the police and they had seen me sneaking out, do you know what they would have thought?" I asked,"I'm sorry, I didn't know" he pleaded, dead people don't beg right because there is no way he is making it out of here alive,"Do you know what you have caused me? I will have to kill the old man earlier than I planned as this has raised their suspicions, he doesn't look like the type that won't snitch with a bullet to the head and that's not good for me" I

Paige's POV"Paige, what's wrong?" Lisa asked hurrying over to where I stood staring at my blank phone screen in shock,"We have to go to the hospital, now" I answered snapping out of my reverie,"Wait, why? Who was that?" she asked frantically as we both walked out of the kitchen leaving everything behind,"They were attacked, I don't know how bad it was but the doctor said Jace may not make it" I murmured breathing through the pain in my heart as I thought of it,"Oh my goodness, that sounds bad already" she gasped in shock,"I can't take the kids there right now, get the car started, let me inform Mum so she can keep an eye on them," I said heading towards the stairs. The loud beating of my heart was the perfect reminder that even with everything that had happened in the past, I couldn't handle losing him. ****"What happened?" we asked once we spotted a frantic Catherine at the reception,"I couldn't get much information from any of

Paige's POV"How are the wedding arrangements going?" I asked Lisa while we prepared lunch, I had been meaning to ask this question for over a week now but I couldn't find the appropriate time until now,Releasing a sigh she glanced at me, " To be honest, I have been thinking of moving it" she answered lowly,"Why will you want to do that?" I gasped shocked at her reply, I don't know what I was expecting but it was definitely not this,"Why not, Paige, with everything that is going on, Mrs.Russo's death, the suspicions, Brandon, Jay, and Jace playing cops, there is no space for a wedding, Brandon barely mentions it these days, it is like it is not even on his mind anymore and I don't want to seem like the bugging fianćee that doesn't want to understand but it would be a lot better if he told me straight up he wasn't interested anymore instead of ignoring the subject matter" she answered, the sadness in her voice hurt me more than words could express, I didn't realize all these problem
