“The heart of man is really evil! This just shows that this Terry guy does not really love Layla like he claimed. Because if he does, I don't think that he would want to kill her no matter what she knows.

If he truly Ioves her, he would surrender himself to the police instead of killing her to keep his secret. True love hurts but that's what many people don't understand.” Vince explained.

“Ok….since when did you turn to a love expert?” Michael laughed over the phone.

“You this boy. You don't know when someone is serious. And I'm not a love expert, it just came out.” Vince corrected.

“Let me call the owner of the hospital, we'll talk later. And call me if anything comes up.” Vince told Michael.

“Yes sir, I will.” Michael chuckled and ended the call. Vince just shook his head and called his old friend.

Michael stared at Layla once more. She was now a shadow of her former self. Suddenly Michael remembered something.

What about Imani? Michael hadn't heard from her since…..

    What if this stranger had something else in mind?– Bail her out so that she can trust you then you strike.Imani would have to find out about that. The car stopped in front of a big mansion and Imani gasped at the sight.This man lived here? Imani hoped that she was making the right decision going with this man. As soon as they entered the mansion, Imani saw a woman in the living room watching a movie.“You're back. That was fast.” Mrs Brown said without taking her eyes off the television.“Yes ma and I came with someone.” Vince said, trying to gain Mrs Brown's attention.“Ohh and who's the person?” Mrs Brown still didn't take her eyes off the television and Imani chuckled.“Why don't you see for yourself?” Vince replied and he finally gained her attention.“I was really enjoying that, yunno.” Mrs Brown complained as she peeled her eyes off the screen.“Well who do we have here? You didn't tell me that you had a girlfriend, Vince. She's very beautiful by the way even though she looks

    Vince was quiet for sometime before speaking up again.“If Michael had known that Layla was in some sort of trouble, he would have reached out to her first and damned the consequences.But he had no idea. It wasn't until a few hours ago when some of my contacts informed me that they had word concerning Layla.They then told me that she's in a coma. According to them, she has been in a coma for a really long time and Michael also confirmed that.” Vince looked at Imani.“So you were really serious when you said that Layla is in a coma. What happened to her? Why isn't she responding?” Imani began to panic.Imani had a thousand and one questions to ask but she knew that Vince didn't have the answers to all of them so there would be no use asking him.“Of course I was serious. I wouldn't joke with a thing like that. Michael is with her as we speak.” Vince said again.“By the way, how were you able to bail me? I thought I had been completely forgotten about. And to think I wanted to blame

    Those questions kept on playing in her mind but she didn't know the answers now with what Vince was saying.“Show me the proof then, I want to see it with my eyes. Only then will I be able to believe anything you say.” Imani summoned up the courage to ask Vince.“No problem, it's on my phone. Come and sit down because this isn't something you can watch while standing up.” Vince informed Imani and she went to sit down by his side.Vince then brought out his phone and showed Imani the pictures of Terry with the nurses first of all.“What does this prove? He's just standing with some nurses. That doesn't mean he has a hand in Layla's accident.Is this the proof you said you had? Because this is fucking bullshit!!” Imani raged and was about to stand up and leave when Vince held her back.Did Imani just feel sparks at the place where Vince's skin made contact with hers?It couldn't be possible, right? It couldn't have been sparks. Imani tried to deny it. She couldn't be feeling anything l

    Imani immediately used the sleeve of her tank top to try and clean the smudge she had made on his shirt but it didn't do anything.Imani continued to scrub and scrub but nothing happened. When she saw that she wasn't making any progress, she stopped and looked up only to see Vince staring down at her with an amused look.“What's with the look? I was trying to help remove the stain I made on your shirt and you just sat there doing nothing.” Imani eyed him.“If I had told you to stop, I know that you wouldn't have listened so I allowed you to try.” Vince replied.“You don't have to worry about it though, I'll put it in the washing machine later and the stain will be gone. It's no biggie.” Vince shrugged his shoulders.Imani wanted to protest but she knew that it would be of no use. “I'll help you out with the washing machine then and make sure that the stain is gone.That's the least I can do for ruining a shirt like this.” Imani said as she looked at the mess she had made once more.“I

    Imani found herself staring at Vince while he laughed. She didn't really understand what Michael had just said but when Vince explained everything to her, she joined him in the laughter.After the three of them had talked for some time, they bid each other goodbye and ended the call.“I hope you no longer think I'm a liar.” Vince suddenly said and Imani turned her head in his direction.“Did I call you a li….. ohhhh, I did. I'm really sorry about that but you couldn't blame me. Terry is someone that I've known for a really long time and I just met you today.Anybody would have reacted in the same way I did.” Imani stared at her fingers as she said so.She felt embarrassed for the way she had spoken to Vince earlier.“It's fine though. Like you said, I can't blame you. You were just trying to defend your friend and there's no crime in that.” Vince patted her lightly on her shoulder and Imani felt the sparks once more.Vince immediately removed his hand from Imani's shoulder after touch

    Michael froze as soon as Noah pointed the gun at his head and was about to pull the trigger. Michael had never expected Noah to find him at the hospital.Michael's heart was beating very fast and he began sweating profusely. He hadn't imagined that he would die that way. Michael was really praying fervently for some sort of miracle to happen and the heavens seemed to answer his prayer.“Freeze!” A voice said behind Noah and he turned to see the police everywhere. Michael sighed in relief as he placed his palm against his beating chest. That was the exact definition of perfect timing. Michael couldn't have been more glad.“Put down your weapon!” The officer commanded and Noah reluctantly obeyed as he eyed Michael dangerously. Michael wasn't scared of Noah anymore so his stares did nothing to him.Michael saw the horror on Carter's face as son as the police flooded the hospital and he smirked. He definitely got what he deserved. After all this time, it was finally the end of the road fo

    Michael was trying to act like he wasn’t shattered but he couldn’t pretend any longer. He couldn’t fathom the fact that Layla, his Layla was gone.It wasn’t possible, she couldn’t possibly be dead. She was very much alive a few moments ago when he had stepped out to go in search of the rest room so what could have happened all of a sudden?Layla hadn’t shown any signs that would have raised any cause for alarm so what were the doctors saying?“I don’t think I heard you properly, doc. You didn’t say that Layla is dead, right? Because that cannot be possible.” Michael asked the doctor who had told him the horrible news.“That is exactly what I said sir, I’m sorry. We tried our best but we still lost her.” The doctor tried to keep his voice professional yet sympathetic at the same time.“What do you mean by you lost her? You can’t be serious. Don’t tell me that crap about trying your best because it was obviously not good enough!!” Michael roared.He wanted to scatter everything that was

    Michael wanted Layla to open her eyes and start breathing again so badly that he even put his fingers under her nostrils to know whether that would happen and he was disappointed when it didn’t happen.“Why Layla? Why did you have to leave me?” Michael began talking to Layla’s corpse after his crying had reduced a little bit.“This wasn’t the agreement. You were not supposed to leave me here all alone. It’s not fair yuuno, what am I supposed to do without you now? How am I supposed to cope with your absence?This was never supposed to happen my love. I miss you already and I can’t do anything about it.” Michael began to cry again.Meanwhile at the station, Carter was still finding it hard to believe that Noah had actually been caught. Carter always believed that Noah was invincible and above the law since he always covered his tracks so well.Noah did not want to believe that he was going to be sentenced. He knew that his rivals would be very happy once they got wind of the news and t

I whispered to my friend, trying to make sense of the situation."Let's just hear him out." She replied calmly.I glared at him, who was still grinning at me. "So, this is what you do? Go around saving girls to get into their pants?"He didn't seem surprised by my words, for reasons best known to him."Layla, it's not like that." My friend said, touching my arm, trying to calm me down, but I was having none of it.“You're never going to stop, are you?" He shook his head, turning around to admire our home further."Imani, he has to leave.” I whispered urgently."What? It's raining heavily outside. Where do you want him to go?" She replied, defending him.I was shocked. "No... he can't stay here! I don't want him in this house, and that's final!"Her expression changed, and she lashed out at me. "And what makes you

    Vince stepped into his apartment, greeted by the savory aroma of pizza.Imani sat on the kitchen counter, devouring a family-sized pie."Hey, babe! How was your meeting with Michael?" Imani asked, mouth full of pizza.Vince sighed, taking a seat next to her. "It was a disaster. He refused to listen to me, and now he's in denial."“What happened?" Imani asked, concerned.Vince recounted the entire ordeal, from him informing Michael about Sun Mi's true identity, that her parents were trying so hard to hide to Michael's refusal to believe him."...and then Michael told me to drop it, that I was being paranoid.” Vince concluded.Imani shook her head. "He's just scared, Vince. He'll come around once he realizes the truth."Vince nodded. "I know, but time is running out. Sun Mi's life is at stake and his as well. He might die from depression at this rate. It's been four years already, yet Michael is still grieving this hard.” He explained.Imani placed a hand on Vince's arm. "We'll figure i

Michael asked, flashing a bright smile."Not much, just trying to stay out of trouble," Vince replied, chuckling."Trouble? You? Nah, you're a straight shooter, Vince." Michael said, laughing out loud."Hey, watch it, I can get into some trouble if I want to." Vince jokes."Oh, I'm shakin' in my boots." Michael teased.Vince playfully rolled his eyes. "Anyway, enough about that. I got some serious business to discuss."Michael's expression suddenly became serious. "Okay, what's up?" He asked.Vince took a deep breath and began to narrate the whole story, starting from when he paused his speech to run after Jerry, only to bump into Mrs. Johnson."So, while I was about to give my speech during your grand opening in Seoul. I had seen you run out of the building, obviously annoyed, so I decided to run after you but I got lost in the hallways and I saw someone I never expected.I saw Jerry talking to a strange

    Vince immediately ripped the box open, and they were met with a surprise. Inside, they found a packet of drugs, drips, syringes and a small paper containing instructions on when and how the drugs should be taken."What the hell is this?" Vince asked, puzzled.Bunker shook his head. "I don't know, but I can find the contact of a doctor or nurse, or at least a friend of mine that works in a hospital, they must know what these drugs are used for." He suggested.“Sure let's go with that.” Vince responded.Bunker made himself comfortable on his rusty cushion and picked up his laptop from the side table and turned it on.He scrolled through the laptop a few times before he announced joyfully. “I found someone's contact on the net, but she is not allowed to give out certain information except in crucial situations.” He explained.“So how do we go about this?” Vince asked.“Well, we will just have to put on a good show.” Bunker replied as dialed the number and the person picked up after the t

    Sun Mi sat at the edge of her bed, sipping her coffee and staring out the window. She had been having the strangest dreams ever since she returned to America. Every night, it was the same thing - she would see herself in a different scenario, but the faces of the people around her were always blurry. Except for hers, she could see her own face clearly, but everyone else's was a blur.Jerry walked into the room, carrying a bunch of grocery bags. "Hey, good morning!" He said, setting the bags down on the counter. "I brought breakfast."Sun Mi smiled, she was grateful for the distraction. "Thanks, Jerry. You're a lifesaver."As Jerry started setting the table, he noticed that Sun Mi looked a bit off. "Hey, is everything okay?" he asked, concern marred on his face. "You look like you've lost your last marble."Sun Mi sighed, rubbing her temples. "I don't know, Jerry. I just can't shake off these weird dreams I've been having. And the weirdest part is, I can only see my own face. Everyone

    Sun Mi slept peacefully in her hotel room, her facial mask placed on her face as usual . She was exhausted from the long flight and the events of the day. As she drifted off to sleep, she began to dream.In her dream, she saw two men in a car, speeding down the road. They were laughing and playing loud music, oblivious to the road ahead. Sun Mi's heart raced as she saw herself running into the road, trying to get to the other side. She tried to scream, but her voice was muffled.The car screeched to a halt just inches from her face. Sun Mi's heart skipped a beat as she saw the two men staring at her in shock. One of them looked like he had seen a ghost. The other was grinning from ear to ear."Is she alive?" The second guy whispered."We should take her to the hospital.” The first guy suggested, his eyes fixed on Sun Mi's face.Sun Mi felt a jolt of fear as the first guy approached her. He was handsome, but there was something strange about him. She tried to move away, but her body fe

    Vince's mind was racing as he sat back in the airplane seat room, staring at the footage Travis had sent him. The grainy video showed Mrs. Johnson arguing with the masked Sun Mi backstage at a runway show. Vince's eyes narrowed as he watched the video again, this time paying closer attention to the body language of the two women."I think Sun Mi might be Layla.” Vince whispered to Imani, who was sleeping beside him. Imani's eyes snapped open, and she sat up straight, her eyes locking onto Vince's."What? Why do you think that?" Imani asked her with her eyes wide open in shock.Vince showed her the footage, and Imani's eyes widened as she watched."This is getting juicier by the minute," Vince said, his eyes locked onto Imani's. "I think we need to dig deeper."Imani nodded in agreement, then asked . "Are you sure about this?”Vince nodded. “I am not a hundred percent sure that Sun Mi and Layla are one and the same person. It's only a hunch and my intuition is never wrong.” He said, gr

    As the plane soared through the skies, Michael, Sun Mi, Carol, Jerry, Imani, Vince, Mrs Brown and other business partners settled into their seats, exhausted from the events of the past few days.In business class, Jerry and Sun Mi chatted quietly, their conversation carrying over to where Michael sat."So, what was it like dancing with Michael?" Jerry asked, his eyes sparkled with curiosity.Sun Mi shrugged. "It was nothing special. Just a dance.”She said with a nonchalant expression.“Are you sure? Your heart did not flutter or skip a beat when he placed his hands on your waist?” He inquired.“Was it meant to?” She clapped back.Michael felt a pang of hurt listening to her words.“Why do I feel this way? I should be happy, this is what I wanted after all.” Michael said, trying so hard to convince himself.He decided to push his emotions aside, trying to focus on preparing for the conference call he would have in a few hours time.IN THE FIRST CLASS:Vince was on a mission, he neede

    The event had long ended and every guest had gone to their respective homes or hotel rooms. Michael stepped out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist, while he made use of a smaller towel to wipe out the beads of water on his body.When he was done he sat down at the edge of the bed and began to think about everything that went down today during the grand opening. From being rude to Senator Bong Won Yun, because he had belittled Sun Mi. To actually listening to Imani and asking Sun Mi for a dance and finally finding it hard to say that he doesn't care about her.He couldn't shake off the feeling of guilt that had been weighing on him since Imani's words. He couldn't believe he was developing feelings for Sun Mi, especially after being responsible for Layla's death. He started questioning his own morality and wondered why he was capable of loving anyone else.“Michael, you need to forget about the past and move on.” Imani had said, but it was easier said than done.~~
