I continued to engage Luke while Rowan, Storm, and their men moved stealthily toward the back to attack him from behind.

My whole body was poised and ready for any movement.

I never left sight of Luke’. My eyes were glued to him while I listened to Marie’s story.

But my main focus was Martina.

She looked like she was ready to drop on the floor any moment. I was banking on Luke to hold her securely.

Then, it happened.

The moment Storm and Rowan grabbed Luke on the back, it surprised him.

He lost his hold on Martina as well as the gun he was holding to threaten her with.

I ran and dove the last few feet that separated us when Martina’s body collapsed on the floor.

“Gotcha!” I murmured in her ears and pulled her to safety.

The gun Luke was holding dropped on the floor, and it fired accidentally.

When we heard the gunshot, I wrapped my body protectively around Martina, my arms cushioning her ears.

At the same time, I saw Luke struggling from the lockhold Rowan and

My eyelids started drooping when the door to the operating room swung open, and a group of medical practitioners came out. The doctor removed his surgical mask before he asked us. “Are you the patient’s next of kin?” I nodded. “Yes. I am the patient's daughter. How is she?” “The operation was successful, but the patient had to remain in the hospital for several days to assess the damage to her legs and to recuperate. She also needed to undergo therapy afterward.” I nodded. “Can we see her? Talk to her?” “She had been sedated. She is still in the recovery room, and will be transferred to a regular room soon.” “Will she be okay?” “Let us see and assess things further when she wakes up.”After telling us this, the doctor left us.

I thought I was going to lose you. I will never forgive myself if that happens.” “Shh. It’s water under the bridge. I am glad to be alive to spend more years with you and the twins.” I told him. Marcus smiled. “And our future children.” He added with a naughty wink. I pinched his nose and hugged him again. It must have been a delayed reaction, but I didn't want to release Marcus anytime soon, but his brothers had other ideas. I am not sure if it was Flint or Rowan who knocked continuously on the roof of our car before they shook it. “F*ck!” Marcus said.He immediately released me to confront his brothers, who escaped to Briana’s house.

You only need to continue with the therapy for a while.” The doctor said before he signed her discharge slip.“I am going home?” Marie could not hide the excitement on her face.

    Hello, my loves, It’s the end of Marcus and Martina’s story, and I am feeling a bit down. It pains me to let them go, but their story is already finished in my head. I could not add more. Besides, I promised you to make it a short one. Only 50 chapters, but I exceeded and ended up writing 55 chapters for their story instead. Sorry about that. Anyway, just a little trivia. I originally planned for Marcus to end up with another girl to offer a new flavor to the 3rd installment. But then I realized that would be diverting from the original theme/concept - second chance.And I kept reading you wanted Marcus and Martina's story. I could not let all of you down. So I revised my original concept, explained why Martina was like that, and cleared the path to their happy ever after. Hope I did not disappoint you guys. Now, we are beginning with our fourth installment, Flint Ford's story. As I mentioned in my previous author's notes, I upload 1-2 chapters daily. If I can't upload two

Maybe I still need to undergo some tests?” I asked hopefully.I need to clutch on a lifeline. Anything would be ideal except this sense of hopelessness. “I am sorry. We had done all the tests we could. Nothing is wrong with your body. You are perfectly healthy, Mr. Ford.” The doctor told me. Irritation sets in. I need an explanation.“Then, why can’t my d*ck get up?” It has been a constant source of stress for me lately.I am a playboy, but my thing can’t perform, to my utter shame and disbelief. I couldn’t tell this to my brother because they would tease me nonstop. Besides, my brothers are all happily married and have kids of their own. I was the only bachelor left. The last Ford standing.

    Flint POV“Have you been daydreaming, bro? I hope it’s not p*rn.” Marcus said when I pried my eyes open to see him hovering over my desk. The sight of Marcus’ smirk had a dousing effect. My mind became instantly alert. I sat hurriedly in my executive chair and rubbed my palms to my face.“You have a drool on the side of your mouth,” Marcus informed me, grinning from ear to ear. I wiped the sides of my mouth with the back of my index finger, noting the absence of wetness. “Just joking,” Marcus said. He posed like the runway model he used to be and folded his three fingers, leaving the index and the middle finger in a gesture of a peace sign. “B*st*rd! What do you want?” I barked, not amused. “It’s Hanna and Rowan’s wedding today, but you are still here in the office. Didn’t you get home last night?” Marcus asked.“And what were you dreaming about? Was it the same girl?” Marcus eyes me suspiciously. Years ago, I drunkenly admitted to Marcus that I spent a weekend affair with

We broke apart and raced up the stairs. “Daddy!” Penelope’s tear-drenched face lifted up in our direction when we opened the door to our room. She was standing on her cot. Her arms were outstretched toward me, silently asking to be pulled up. I didn’t think twice about responding to my daughter’s distress call. In three strides, I was in front of her. I cupped her chin.“Did you miss Daddy?” I asked gently. Longing pierced me when I saw her face. It was unfathomable how the two of us had become quite attached when we only knew about each other’s existence a few days ago. The connection was so strong. “You reek of alcohol.” Anna reminded me when I bent down to pick Penelope in my arms. “Just a while, dear. Let me comfort our daughter for a while." Anna stood to the side, watching while I rocked Penelope. I swayed my body from side to side while my little girl clung to me. Then, her eyes ha

Then, she would stroll toward the waves again, repeating the same actions until Flint rescues her.“You are silent,” Flint said when he deposited Penelope beside me.
