“I think it will be better for you to remain angry with him and not want to see him again for now..” Daisy muttered. Margaux fell asleep as soon as her eyes closed and did not hear it clearly. She immediately fell into a deep slumber that she failed to see how her cousin broke down beside her. The next day came, and she overslept. When she woke up, she was alone in her bed that she thought it was just a dream that her cousins had a sleepover there. She grunted as she felt a splitting headache which made her stay still and refused to get up. “You're finally awake,” the door opened and her cousin, Dinah, appeared. “Would you like a breakfast in bed or you will join us for lunch downstairs?” she queried. Shaking her head, she shut her eyes again. “Where’s Daisy?” she asked instead. After hearing no response, she opened her eyes and looked at her cousin. Her eyebrows then furrowed upon seeing Dinah’s serious face.“Didn’t she sleep over here too?” she frowned. Dinah let out a heav
Margaux’s body went frigid upon hearing Hendrix’s name. Her mind went blank as her insides were shaking.‘Hendrix?’ she thought. But then she quickly shook her head, denying that she just heard the name wrong. It must be a different name and only sounded the same as Hendrix. There was no way he would be the patient there since she had just met him yesterday and he was very healthy. That’s just absurd. However, there was a nagging feeling in her and she knew she wouldn’t be at peace thinking about that. She was about to ask the nurse for confirmation, but she realized the two were already quite far from the elevator as well as the elevator was only a few gaps to close.She closed and opened her hands repeatedly, not trying anything to call them out. Her gaze was fixated at the closed doors while her head was in mess. ‘What if it’s really him?’ her mind kept questioning. She tried to let that slide and just diverted her attention to her cousin. But unfortunately, that nagging feelin
She narrowed her eyes on her, and became suspicious all of a sudden. Then Daisy laughed heartily, “Why would I fake my pregnancy? I’m not the desperate one who wanted to be tied with Jack, just so you know” She stared at her cousin incredulously. She almost thought that she was not pregnant because the way she said those things sounded like she was implying that it was all a lie. The mood has completely turned light as though they were not in hospital because of that. For the meantime, she forgot all her concerns and worries as she got excited with the unborn child. Everyone finally arrived but the atmosphere suddenly changed. Margaux was not sure what it was but she had a bad feeling about it. Daisy, like always, was the one who led the conversation as though nothing had happened to her and she was not the one who was admitted in the hospital. “Have you two already talked about the wedding?” Calli inquired. She was not interested at first because still had not recovered from h
Her body instantly froze when that person glanced towards her direction. She blinked several times to check if she was not just seeing things, but the elevator had closed completely before she could confirm it. “I really need a rest now..” she muttered while shaking her head profusely. Just then, she noticed that Dinah was not able to keep up with her and was left out. She let out an exasperated sigh. Her mind was in haze. While waiting for the elevator to reach the ground floor, she had decided that she would just wait for her cousin in the lobby. However, the door suddenly opens and Doctor Pablo was revealed. “Margaux?” the doctor frowned, surprised to see her there. “I thought you were still on vacation,” he said. Her eyebrows knitted together as she was confused with what he said at first. But eventually, she realized that she hadn’t reported yet in the hospital and was only going to their main office. “I've already been back in the office for almost two weeks. I'm sorry I h
“Margaux!” Roxanne shouted as soon as she came near her. Margaux just stood there with a blank face. Wondering why the woman was there and what happened to the investigation. She temporarily forgot what was bothering her as she was curious why Roxanne seemed like a crazy woman who was rushing angrily towards her direction. “You fvcking psycho! What have you done to Hendrix!” the woman angrily exclaimed then quickly pulled her hair with all force. “Ouch! Stop!” her eyes shut tightly as her face contorted in pain. She felt the pain to the roots and got afraid that she's going to be bald once, thus, without any hesitation, she also grabbed a fistful of the woman’s hair and pulled it as hard as she could until she finally let go of hers. “You b*tch!” Roxanne spatted. She quickly pushed her away with all her strength and called for the security to take the woman out of the hospital. Although she badly wanted to hurt that woman, she did not forget that she was the CEO of that plac
She squeezed her eyes with her knuckles, thinking she was just seeing things. However, when she saw Hendrix’s father show up behind Wilma, that was when she finally realized that it was real. ‘What are they doing here?!’ her mind screamed internally. She was already hysterical. Her heart suddenly felt weak as her knees wobbled. Meanwhile, Dinah turned to her and put her hands on her shoulders. “Babe..” she muttered. Her eyes were wide as she stared at her cousin and her heart went wilder upon seeing Dinah's somber expression. Suddenly, she wanted to run away and hide somewhere. Feeling something bad was about to happen, she wanted to go as far as she could away from them and rather be clueless. “I changed my mind. I wanted to go home,” she said. She was about to remove Dinah’s hands off her shoulders when she saw the latter shaking her head as if warning her not to do that. Pursing her lips, her eyebrows deeply furrowed as she stared at her cousin. “You need to know something.
“Josh?” Margaux’s eyebrows deeply furrowed as she stared at the guy in front of her. Josh’s body stiffened before he slowly turned around to face her. Their eyes met and she could see his shock upon seeing her. “Margaux?” His eyes were wide as though he saw a ghost. Margaux pursed her lips as her gaze shifted to the closed door. Her fingers curled, thinking that she was stuck there with him, of all people. “Are you going to–” “I’m going home,” she quickly cut him off. Her gaze went back to Josh and her eyes narrowed upon seeing him looking at her in disbelief. “Really? You mean..” he trailed off. She clicked her tongue. Annoyed that she was trapped in that place. Looking away, she did not bother to say anything as she was aware that the words that will come out from her mouth will not be good. “I’m sorry. I didn't see you there,” he muttered. Shaking her head, she let out a heavy sigh. How unfortunate she was to be in such a situation where she can’t get out of the place she
She got goosebumps and her insides trembled upon hearing that. She wanted to deny it and make herself believe that it was just hallucinations that she did not hear it right. However, the nurses were just only a few steps down towards where she was while the area they were in were enclosed and the voices would echoe even if they speak with a low tone. “Of course they will. The patient is Miss Margaux’s husband so..” the nurse trailed off. It was as if they sensed her presence behind them, one of the nurses suddenly looked at her direction and gasped upon realizing that someone was listening to their conversation. “M-miss Margaux..” she stammered. Her colleague followed her gaze and just like the first one, she gasped as well and got frozen on the spot. Margaux just stood there, feeling cold all over. Her brain just stopped functioning while her heart swelled in pain. She couldn't speak. She wanted to confirm what she had just heard but no words were coming out from her mouth as i
