Trenton proposed to Nadine grandly. The proposal was so huge, it went viral on the internet. Everyone was shocked that Trenton Hudson had a woman. They thought that he was gay.

Trenton had also proposed with ten prom dresses.

“Remember the first day we met? You asked me if I had money to buy you ten prom dresses and I said yes. Here they are, ten prom dresses for you to be my wife, and of course, I can't forget the ring.” He went on his knees and stretched the ring to her.

Nadine was so happy, she jumped up with swollen eyes. Her parents were present and they rejoiced with her. The reporters were also there making it grand. This way it spread all over the internet. After the engagement party, everyone left leaving Nadine and Trenton in the big house. And then she thought he would sleep with her because every man did this with her. On the first meeting, they had already had sex.

Contrary to her belief, Trenton took her to the guest room and left after saying.

“I know you have been saving yourself until marriage so I won't touch you until then. I respect your body. You look like a priceless jewel to me right now.” He smiled and almost couldn't touch her. Nadine saw the look in his eyes, they were priceless.

Her heart trembled in her chest once more, remembering she had lost her first time a long time ago. She had even slept with so many men hence she wasn't as tight. But here, he believed that she was still clean.

“I have to do something.” She thought. He grabbed her face and then kissed her forehead before tucking her into the bed.

“I love you.”

The next day, Nadine’s phone woke her. It was her mother.

“Come over to the hospital, Madine is awake!” Her mother announced. Her eyes went wide and her heart almost jolted out of her rib cage.

Madine was awake. Fear ran up her spine and curled her belly. All of her secrets would be out in the open. Why didn't Madine just remain in a coma forever? Why?! She thought as she made her way to the living room. However, she met Trenton in the living room working on his laptop.

“Where are you going, babe?” He asked, a soft smile on his face. Even in the morning, he looked so handsome.

Nadine explained everything to him and he offered to take her to the hospital. She shook her head, she insisted that she didn't want him to take her. Nadine suspected that Madine would be able to recognize him and vice versa.

Getting to the hospital with a heavy heart, she sat in her car, staring at the building. Madine was awake, of course, she should be running her mouth now. She would have to go in there and beg her to not tell Trenton. She thought.

“Why did she have to wake up now? Why?!”

Eventually, she entered Madine’s ward. She saw Madine seated on the bed, their parents were on her side, helping her out. When Nadine walked in fully, her parents acknowledged her but she kept her gaze on Madine.

“Nadine, your sister...” She paused, and Nadine heart went spiraling with fear.

“What happened?” Nadine asked.

“Your sister has lost her memory. The doctor confirmed she has amnesia.” Hannah explained with tears in her eyes.

Nadine's eyes almost went wide with excitement.

How did she get so lucky? It seemed that the universe was also on her side. Madine has now lost her memory meaning she wouldn't take Trenton away from her. Now Trenton was all hers.

After spending some time in the hospital, she received a call from Trenton. Without wasting time, she went to him. Back in his car, he smiled at her and drove her to his workplace.

“How about your sister?” He asked.

“She is fine but she now has amnesia. I don't know why bad things are happening to Madine. She is not a good person but bad things shouldn't be happening to her.” She sighed worriedly.

Trenton paused and looked at her.

“She is not a good person?” He asked and she sighed as if she didn't want to speak too much.

“Well, I know I am her sister but she did some bad things to me but I have forgiven her. I don't want bad things happening to her.” She sighed sadly again.

“If Karma didn't get to her, I would have. No one should hurt you, no one.” Trenton frowned.

“She didn't hurt me too much. She just got all the love from our parents and stole my jewelry designs to get a nice job. She also...bullied” Nadine paused as if to sob.

And then Trenton touched her arm.

“Don’t think about such a person. Don't let her bring back memories that don't suit you. After I sort some documents in the office, I will take you out. Anywhere.” He assured her and she nodded.

Trenton left her in the reception and went to his office. At the same time, the receptionist came and asked about him. Nadine frowned and walked closer to her on catwalks.

“Why do you want to see my man?” Nadine raised her eyes proudly.

“Nothing ma’am, I just want to tell him about a woman who came to visit him while he was proposing to you yesterday.” She answered quickly.

“What woman?” Nadine raised her brows.

“She came and said she wanted to see Mr Trenton and it was very important. I can show her to you on the CCTV cam.” She turned to the laptop and then found the footage.

Nadine curiously looked at it and to her surprise it was Madine. Madine had come to see Trenton a day before. Instantly, her body trembled.

“D... Don't show Trenton that footage... Uhm because I will do it myself.” Her voice broke.

At the same time, Trenton got into the room.

“Don’t show me what footage?” His thick voice sounded behind her making her freeze. No. No. No. She shouted in her mind.
