Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56It is already ten in the evening, but Marianne’s thoughts keep repeating what Jane had said to her on the phone this morning.
‘She told me to help me with my relationship with him, but how exactly will she do that? What could she be planning?’ Marianne sighs, then cringes at the thought of what she had said after that conversation. She pulls up the quilt with white and blue design that she chooses thinking that Francois would like it. She covers her face with it, and then squirms. “Aahh…” she shouted, muffling her voice on the cover. Then hatefully whispers to herself “Why did you have to make excuses like that? You were like a teenager making excuses too! What kind of answer was that? You simpleton!” She pulls away the covers to her face, and then composes herself. It’s not even a minute past when

Marianne wheels around and goes back to the room. She quickly turns on the light. Then she moves closer to the bed. She sees the pale complexion of Francois’ face. ‘Why did I not think that there could be something wrong with him? He was clearly not himself? By now, he would have been freshly showered and smartly dressed up. He would’ve already finished his run outside or done his work out in the gym. How come I did not notice this? As always I had been focusing on myself again! I was thinking of trying to avoid him because of my embarrassment earlier. Come to think of it, I must have yanked his thing hard for him to be woken up. Right now, he didn’t even stir up with me putting the light on,’ she thought.Marianne turns to Lita, with a soft voice, and says “Down the hallway, next to the cloak room, there is a cabinet. Take the bag with a stethoscope.

The arrival of Dr Sasaki was announced by Lita, who came running up the stairs. Marianne, who was about to admonish Mrs Smith as to who is the boss, was stopped by Lita’s announcement. She wheels herself out of the room. The well being of Francois is more important than her wounded pride. She must make sure that the doctor will do everything that is necessary to do.Marianne looked down from the first floor. Her eyes are fixed on the man who is walking in the hallways who is carrying two big leather bags. ‘It really is him, Dr Arnel Sasaki!’ she thought.The man looks up towards Marianne, sensing her presence. The guard who was guiding the doctor also turned his head up. He made a salute to Marianne, and then told the doctor to take the grand stairs. ‘Mrs Davidson is waiting for you,’ said th

Marianne and the rest at the table had heard what Florence had just said to John. Everyone has the same thoughts that ‘If Leonna had been a man, then she would have been similar to John.’“Mum, really…” said Leonna, trying to lighten up the situation as she feels bothered by what the others must be thinking. However, the look on Florence’s face that alarmed her.Florence gives John and Leonna a mysterious and cheeky look, and she said “I can feel a close bondness between you two. Please excuse me for being impudent when I say that I would like for you two to be together. I may not have a son biologically, but I can still have hope for my son-in-law. Florence chuckles as she winks at everyone.

Being cheered by John, Marianne’s self assurance boosted up, and because of her past medical background and knowledge, she confidently said “Deprivation of vision for a long time takes a while for the eyes to heal. Not to mention the other parts of the body that had been deprived of it’s natural usage. The unusual rapid healing of the body can be an effect of a powerful drug. I know that they have been developing this new type of drug for terminally ill patients who want to spend a bit more time with their family. However, there were findings that some patients had actually recovered from their illness because of this drug, but the numbers are not that many. Majority of them became fully healthy in a month's time and then would eventually pass away after a week. Some calls it a ‘suicide miracle drug’. Of course, this is not known to the public yet. If I’m not mistaken, they are still in the process of testing on peo

Marianne continuously stares at Carl to which he also did the same. As if challenging her on who would be the one to lower their eyes first. Marianne was the first to shift her eyes away.‘This man… he is on my neck all the time. Why can’t he be like John and Michael? I can’t believe that he is saying this again?’ she thought.Having been taken to a room to be questioned by Mrs Smith early in the morning, and then being condemned by Leonna a while ago, and now feeling interrogated by Carl.

Is everything alright?”“Ah, Mrs Davidson. Yes, I just came by to check on Francois. I thought I should drop by as I won’t be coming this evening.

Francois lightly touches his neck. His thoughts were on last night, on how he got those marks. He frowned.There was an uncertain look on Francois’ face that made Marianne worries. She wants to reach out to him. ‘I wonder what has happened. This is the first time that I have ever seen him look like this. He seems unsure. He is certainly not himself. Is he perhaps ill?’ thought Marianne, more concerned and with determination to find out what the mark is on his neck. Francois sees Marianne slowly getting up off her chair. He became stiff as he felt her nearness. He would have stepped backwards if he could, but he felt pinned to his spot. He could not move. Moreso when his nostrils were hit with her fragrance. Marianne steadies herself, and then takes a closer look at his neck. “Oh, it’s more than I thought, and it looks bad!” she exclaimed, showing a displeased look as she inspected the marks on his neck. Her eyes focused on the worst part. ‘I’m sure I’ve seen something like this befo

The next day, the ringing of her phone made Marianne groan as she grabbed her phone. She squinted her eyes at the clock table. ‘It’s past 7, already!?’ “Hello, Marianne! Oh I’m so sorry, did I just wake you up? I only called cause I thought you would be awake by now,” said Annie, as she listened to the moaning sound of her friend from the other line. “Hey… Annie. No, no it’s okay. I’m actually glad that you called. I think my alarm clock is not working. I don’t know how long I would sleep if you didn’t call. You saved me from facing another wrath from Mrs Smith.” “Are you still not getting along? I think that’s been a while now, don’t you think?

Realising that Francois would not help her, that she has to deal with Steven herself. She turns to face Steven. She sees his smiling face. The face that Kenny had once liked. She looks closely and studies his face. ‘Hmm he does have a handsome face but he is nothing compared to Francois. Not even to John, Michael and Carl… Why the heck did I think before that he is above all men when it comes to looks? Gah… And if you look more closely… there are blackheads on his nose! What a turn off! Oh, there are even more lines under his eyes and some pigmentation on his skin. He has become old now.”The scrutinising ways of Marianne made Steven uncomfortable. He looks at Francois, but he seems to be unaware of what his wife is doing or does not care. He cleared his throat. “Uhm, Lady Marianne.”

Sarah’s watchful eyes become sharp as she stares at Marianne. “You know, I had years of study and practice to know when someone is lying. And right now, your face is telling me differently than earlier.” Sarah moves closer to Marianne. She bends down, and with her face close to Marianne, she looks straight into Marianne’s eyes. “So, what are you hiding? What are you guilty of?” said Sarah, with a very intimidating tone.Marianne catches her breath, and on guard of what the woman in front of her is going to do next. ‘Oh My God! I hope she is not going to hit me!’ she thought. She quickly side glances to where Lana is. She sees her talking on the phone as Lana meets her eyes very briefly. ‘I hope she called Francois. I hope it’s him on the other line,’ prayed Marianne.

Sarah gives Marianne a quizzing look because of her reaction. Aware of her carelessness, Marianne says to her “Well, I’ve not met Kenny before so I don’t really know what he’s like, but you said he is not one to just take his own life. It’s also what others say about him. So, I believe you. And thank you for telling me about the study under Dr Keis. I’ll see if I can find some useful information from his old stuff. But… I’m sure this is not the important thing that you wanted to tell me for seeking me here.”Sarah nodded. “Well, after you left that day. I had an uncomfortable feeling like I had missed something. I couldn’t sleep. So, that night I went to check on Kenny's body again. At first, everything was the same as how I'd written it on the report. But when I checked the ligature on his neck, I found a very thin dark

Returning to their table, Marianne gives Francois a hateful accusation look of a 'How could you!?' flaring in her eyes. Anyone who would look at Marianne’s face would be able to tell how angry she is, but Francois did not seem to take any notice of her state. His relaxed manner of how he is enjoying himself made Marianne more annoyed at him. ‘Hateful Bastard!’ she thought as she threw him one more hateful glance. To put her composure back, Marianne tries to think of positive thoughts. ‘Good thing everyone wasn’t so brazen to accept his abrupt invitation. Even Steven just gave him a salute. Hopefully no one will come as I don’t want to prepare an abrupt party... Oh, wait! Does Francois want me to throw a party for Carl?’ The thought made Marianne look alarmed and suddenly feeling guilty that it never occurred to her to throw a party for Carl.&nb

Whatever was on Dr Eli’s face expression is now gone. She is now wearing her usual friendly smiles. She gets up and greets Francois and Marianne. “Hello. I didn’t expect to see you both here," she said, smilingly. Marianne thought that she detected nervousness in her voice. She smiles back at Dr Eli. The question that she wanted to ask earlier (to ask her why she had left her profession), she does not dare to ask anymore. Marianne secretly observes Dr Eli. ‘I’m sure I wasn’t mistaken when she looked at me. There was hatred in her eyes which was directed at me. But why…? I’ve known her before, and she is not to hold grudges. Perhaps she has mistaken me for someone else? Hmm… no, I’m with Francois so she knows who I am. So, why does she hate me?... Ah... this feels worse than when Leonna was giving me those hateful stares with her matching acid tongue. But, at least with Leonna, I know why sh

Marianne tries to sort out her thoughts by accepting her sad fate tonight. Yet, she still cannot let go of the niggling feeling inside her. With a disregard to modesty, she said “I have to say this for the peace of my mind. You know, I thought that this was going to be a ‘date’. A proper date. I did not expect it to be like this. And I was really ecstatic then to the idea that I am going out on a date with you. In fact, I even requested help from the ladies which I kinda regret as they have different ideas. They only caused me more stress, and not to mention my extended endurance for tolerating the constant nagging of Mrs Smith. I do feel sorry for myself.” Then, Marianne thought that her words came out wrong that it had made her look more pathetic than she wanted it to be. So, to justify her words, she said “Well, you know that I have been cooped up inside the castle most of the time, so a da

“Cole is one of those narcissistic people, but he is also intelligent. He knows how to placate himself and bide his time to get what he wants. He would have not felt remorse after killing his best friend. However, the admiration or he might have thought that was more like a Godlike idolisation from Kenny, he doesn’t get it anymore.” Marianne continuously stares at Francois. “I’ve had this thought of what Kenny's situation was, but after you said it… Although, a tiny bit inside me doesn’t want to admit it, still I have to accept the fact that I was manipulated. I was a doctor, Kenny was an exemplary doctor. He should have known. Kenny should have seen the signs.” Marianne covers her face, feeling dejected. Francois pats her back. “You were very young then, and you have lost your parents. It’s understa
