Paige:A Second Chance Romance Seventy eight-Paige
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'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

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'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 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's POVI couldn't get the smile off my face from Jace's little stunt last night, although I was angry at first that he had fooled me and to add the fact that everyone including Lisa was part of it all just made it so much funnier, I guess I didn't know them so well,After much pleading and convincing, I had agreed to stay and do all he had planned with him. I don't know how he pulled it off but we had a small fancy dinner right in the room, then listened and sang along to our favorites songs for over an hour and I didn't feel it, luckily we still have the same taste in music as we did years ago, I danced a little too and he didn't fail to remind me how I had always loved dancing back in high school and never missed any of my dance classes even when I was sick, it was a bittersweet memory as it reminded me of everything I had to leave behind after what he did, but I didn't want to spoil the night so I didn't say anything. We ended the night cuddled up on the surprisingly big hos

Jace's POVI watched from the balcony of my house, everyone was dressed in black, with scowls on their faces, walking round the back of the house where we all decided we would host the guests. We just returned from the cemetery where they were buried side by side just like Mum always wanted, but we still had to entertain the guests, perks of having rich parents. I couldn't recognize many of them as they were either business associates or family members, it was exactly four days after Dad's death and a day after I was released from the hospital with strict warnings though. The loud thunder that rumbled in the skies was perfect weather for the day, I was burying my both parents together on the same day, and although they both hurt me in their own way I couldn't shake off the pain in my heart,"Hey," Paige called out softly snapping me out of my little reverie,"Are you ready for the day?" I asked slowly turning to face her,"I should be asking you that, they were your parents" she repli

Paige's POVWhat was he doing here? How did he know about this funeral? What is his connection? I hope he didn't come to find me, he is not supposed to know about the twins or Jace,"Leon?" I called out carefully just to be sure I wasn't dreaming,"Paige?" he answered shocked as he turned to face me,"Fancy meeting you here, you were the last person I thought I would see here" he continued with a bright smile on his face he pulled me in for a hug which I reluctantly accepted, why would he hug me without even asking?"And why is that?" I asked staring at him skeptically,"Well, with the way you always say you are busy with family matters and all I didn't think you would have the time to attend a random burial, except there is something I don't know about" he answered with a smile I didn't seem to trust plastered on his face,"I do not understand your point here but me being busy with family matters doesn't mean I cannot attend gatherings when I want to" I defended,"Gatherings you say"

Paige:A Second Chance Romance One hundred and fourteen-Paige
Paige's POV. Three days later."We should go and see Brandon's dad on our way back" I suggested to Lisa as we prepared to leave. It took alot of convincing to get Lisa to agree to go out with me, She was hell bent on staying right beside Brandon till he wakes up. I had to promise her that we wouldn't be out for long in case he wakes up, and also had to make her understand that Brandon will not be happy if he hears that she put her life on hold to wait for him to wake up and that seemed to have done the work."You know he never approved of me since high school" Lisa replied with fear coating her voice."That doesn't mean you shouldn't visit him at the hospital, at least for Brandon's sake, he wouldn't be happy when he wakes up and finds out that his father was hospitalised and you didn't go to see him" I advised."Yeah, I guess so" Lisa replied with a light sigh."With enthusiasm, we should get moving if we aim to be home early," I cheerfully suggested, reaching

Paige:A Second Chance Romance One hundred and thirteen-Jace
Jace's POVAs I stood under the shower, I replayed the events of the day over and over again in my head, watching the blood on my skin go down the drainage.The lifeless look on Mr. Hanson's face when the ambulance took him away will most likely haunt me for a while.We should never have gone there, whoevershot him was probably after us. How will Brandon feel if he wakes to his father battling for his life in the hospital and then there is the stunt Paige pulled this afternoon, she never listens, we shouldn't be trusting anyone right now but no, she had to go ahead to let a stranger into the house."Jace" She called out from inside the room, I knew I should have locked the door ."Jace, please I know you are in there, please come out let's talk",She pleaded knocking on the bathroom door."Jace" She called out again after few minutes."Please go away,Paige, we have nothing to talk about, you should go and attend to your visitor" I finally replied."He ha
Paige:A Second Chance Romance One hundred and twelve-Paige
Paige's POV"What are you doing here?" I asked Leon, trying to mask my shock."I came to see you, you have been ignoring all my calls and texts since the burial, I wanted to be sure everything is okay" He replied a bright smile on his face."I have not been ignoring your calls and texts and even if I was isn't that more reason why you wouldn't want to find me?" I questioned refraining from banging the door in his face so I could prepare myself more for this."I don't think that way, I have known you for over five years now, and even though we are not as close as I would loved us to be, but you never just go blank on me like this, on days when you can't text or call, you call when you can, to apologize, so my first thought was definitely something had gone wrong, you can't really blame me" he shrugged so casually me but I just kept screaming in my head. Jace or the kids better not come home anytime soon, it would be a disaster, Paige this is what you get for enabling this guy for so lo
Paige:A Second Chance Romance One hundred and eleven- Jace
Jace's POVHer words kept replaying in my head over and over again as we drove, I guess even my in wildest dreams I never thought she would say something like that to me. It made perfect sense anyway. It was really a hypocritical thing to say after all, l am here judging a man for doing the same thing I did, he didn't deny his son at least. I deserve all she said."Are you okay?" Jay asked snapping me outof my thoughts making me realize we had already stopped."Yes, I am" I lied taking off my seatbelt. "No, you are not. We got here over five minutes ago and I have been talking to you since we left the office and your half-ass replies and zoning out are enough to know you are definitely not оkау" Jay replied seeing straight past my pathetic lie."Can we do what we came here for already"I said evading his question."This is not over trust me" Jay replied before unlocking the car doors, | nodded before alighting from the car."I will do the talking,
Paige:A Second Chance Romance One hundred and ten-Paige
Paige's POV It's been a week, one full week, and still nothing from Brandon, not even a small move of his finger to at least assure us that he is recovering. All the doctors we have brought keep saying the same thing, that he will wake up soon but that's the problem, no one is being specific and everyone is growing impatient. Lisa most especially, she is losing it and I can't seem to be able to do anything about it. We have all decided he would be brought back home and treated from here so we could all keep our eyes on him and so that Lisa will at least leave the hospital since that is the only way she has agreed to leave."You are not going to the office today?" I asked Jace as l served breakfast. The silence at the dining table was starting to make me uncomfortable so anything to get the table talking."There is no time for that. I have to go to the hospital to help with Brandon's move and also Jay and I need to have a word with Brandon's Da

Unknown POV"Boss, the police are here" Albert, my newest recruit informed me."Handle them, they shouldn't be much of a problem if you tell them exactly what they want to hear" I instructed my gaze fixed on the TV screen."Right away sir" he replied before walking away.Sighing to myself, I smiled, the long-awaited day was slowly drawing close, and I would finally get all I had ever wanted.Knock.Knock.Knock."I would like to believe he is dead now" I stated."Yes sir, he is" Authur answered immediately although there was something off about him like he refrained from telling me something I should know."He better be or you will take his place and trust me he had a really nicer death compared to what I will do to you" I threatened lighting the cigarette between my lips."I understand, Sir" he quivered, something is definitely up with him and I will find out."Good, go and help Albert out with the police and if they insist on anything at all finish them off" I instructed dismissing hi

Paige's POV One day LaterI finally understood what a true miracle felt like. According to the doctors Brandon was dead for a complete thirty minutes, they had claimed they had already exhausted all the resuscitation methods they could think of and had declared him dead but after running another checkup on him they found out he had a faint heartbeat that was why they couldn't detect it, apparently, if he hadn't moved when he did, they wouldn't have known, he would have died "How is he now?" I asked Jace once he walked out of the doctor's office, I needed positive information for Lisa as she had decided she wasn't to going leave Brandon's side till he was out of the hospital but he didn't seem to look like he was waking up anytime soon. The doctors were able to stabilize him but he hasn't said anything since then, no reaction either, he just lay so still, if not for the now beeping heart machine in the ward I wouldn't have believed he was actually

Brandon's POV"Jay knew too?" I asked in disbelief."He had to come looking for me on the wrong day" he replied."Please help me tell him, it isn't his fault either, he promised" he continued."Fuck all of this" I cursed my anger growing."I know you don't understand a thing but promise you will understand soon but now right now, you have to go or else you wouldn't be able to leave again" he warned but I was feeling too much all of a sudden."I fucking can't, don't you get it. I have no control over myself at the moment, I can't feel a damn thing" I shot angrily."All you have to do is push yourself immediately you feel anything at all, you will know exactly what to do right after that" he replied his voice growing faint."You have to explain things to me Caleb, I am losing it" I said."I really want to but there is no time, you need to leave now brother" he answered."Caleb" I called but my voice seemed to have grown mute as the white light from earlier flashed and then loud sirens n
