"Please, hold my hand and try to stand up," Stacy offered to Carlton as soon as she pushed him to the garden, as she readied her mind for whatever would come out of trying to make him exercise his legs by walking.'Last time, it didn't end well,' she reminded herself. "Do you think that is a nice idea, doctor? I have weight and you have a smaller body frame. We can both fall if I miss my steps," Carlton speculated as he stared into her eyes with doubt, remembering what happened between them not quite long ago at the same place. Stacy darted her eyes instantly to another direction when it felt as if his eyes would bore deep into her soul and answered, "Please, do not bother about that. Just watch my steps and do as I tell you." "I can use the walker instead," he persisted again but she smiled instead. "I have my reasons, Mr. Howard," she assured, and knelt before him to adjust the pads that she had attached to his knees. She also checked the ones around his elbow to be sure they

"Please, Mr. Howard. A friend is coming in my car. It developed a minor fault this morning. Can you talk to the security at the neighborhood gate? They have confirmed the car bio-data, but they want to be sure that it is not stolen," Stacy walked up to meet Carlton during their break time, after Liam called her that he had fixed her car and brought it. It was his day off, and he offered to do it willingly for her that morning when he called, and was told by her that the car developed a minor fault. James was the one who had gone to pick her up at the gate as early as she could that morning, after she called him to inform him about what happened. "Sorry for the inconvenience. It is for security reasons," he answered her instantly, and grabbed his phone immediately to text James to inform them. He was feeling so rejuvenated after he went up to take his bath again, while the housekeeper served a compulsory lunch that Stacy asked for. "Thank you," she murmured gratefully and proceeded

"I do not think I'm obliged to say to you the type of relationship between me and my friend, Mr. Howard," Stacy answered sternly when he had asked her the same question since she arrived the second time. "But I answer every one of your questions. Should you not answer mine as my doctor?" He asked her again, not caring about the manner in which she snapped at him. Even if he was angry, he couldn't show it. "Not this kind of personal question, Mr. Howard. Anything related to your health is a question I want to hear you ask me," he explained to him, hoping that he would desist from asking her again. 'Actually, for some reason, she liked that he was curious. He had made her feel unworthy when they were together, so maybe seeing her with a guy who might be her lover was making him uncomfortable,' Stacy thought to herself. "I love him and he treats me nicely. Are you fine with the answer?" She sassed, not looking at him as she took out his patient's chart from her bag. "I just wanted t

The atmosphere in the physiotherapy department of WILLAND hospital was bright and lively, infused with a sense of purpose as patients sought solace and healing within its walls while nurses and doctors attended to them. In one of the V-VIP wards was Liam standing, and beside him was Nadia, who was following him keenly with a sense of greater respect. They moved from one patient to another, carefully assessing their needs and informing them of every necessary treatment plan, as well as every rehabilitation process that was left for them to complete. After they were finally done, they both made their way out of the ward. "Why do I get a feeling that you might have been avoiding me?" Liam suddenly broke the unusual silence between him and Nadia, ever since they had been working together. She had been giving professional replies whenever he asked her about any patient's information, without her usual jokes and slight teasing. He noticed that something was wrong, but he had not been able

Stacy drove back home with her face etched with lines of worry and fatigue, which reflected the weight of the conflicting emotions that had been in her head since she left Carlton's house. She had been so bothered too about what she was sure she heard her heart do. Her mind traveled back to the fleeting moment that momentarily occurred between them and almost caused her peace. Time seemed to slow as they leaned closer in the water, with their lips mere inches apart, and eyes locked while searching for answers from each other. And just as the unthinkable might have just happened, Stacy called Carlton's name so sharply before he made the move of violating the theory of the doctor-patient session. "Mr. Howard? Can you move….." Stacy tried to catch her breath as she spoke slowly, "Can you move your feet? You seem not to be propelling as I asked you to?" She had switched the conversation so abruptly and suddenly, that someone who was passing at the moment would never have had the slighte

A sleek black limousine pulled into the driveway and glided to a graceful halt as its doors swung open, revealing the ethereal sight of the lady who stepped out of the luxurious car. Her beautiful dress was an exquisite designer piece that was made with shimmering sequins and lace, attracting people's attention to her, and they wondered who she was as she made her way inside. Seeing the luxuriousness of the banquet room filled with elites that she had stepped into, Stacy was reminded of the kind of opulent life she would have lived, if she decided to remain the wife of a billionaire, regardless of how Carlton felt about her. 'If she had just decided to enjoy her life to the fullest, throw lavish parties, and make new friends that lived the same extravagant way, she wondered what was going to have become of her and Carlton's relationship. Would he have eventually loved her?'Stacy got her phone to call her brother Hudson instantly that she had arrived, since he was the one who had inv

Carlton returned to his room with heavy concerns bothering his heart, as he replayed the scene of he and Stacy in the pool, and his apology to her. The spark he felt in his heart was undeniable, but he wasn't sure if she took the situation well or if she felt anything. Though he had planned it several times in his head, he didn't expect that he would apologize in that kind of awkward and tension-filled situation. 'Did he not choose his words well? Did her silence mean affirmation? Was she truly never going to give him any chance to make up for his mistakes, since she kept mentioning that it was all in the past? Did he sound unconvincing?' Carlton wondered endlessly in his mind, as he tried to grasp the situation of what her silence meant. The fear of losing her again and of irreparably damaging their connection, gnawed at his soul and left him with the feeling of helplessness. The memory of her abrupt departure after her brother called lingered in his mind endlessly, and it made him

"Babe. Are you okay?" Nadia asked Stacy in concern, after she had noticed and studied her countenance for many minutes, and figured out that something was deeply wrong with her. It was a bright Saturday morning and they both didn't go to work, so they decided to do whatever cleaning needed to be done in the house. Yet, Stacy didn't cheer up even with all the jokes that she had been telling her."I am just stressed out. I've got a lot of things on my mind," she answered tiredly, trying to force a smile as she trimmed the flowers that were planted and neatly arranged on the extended balcony in the living room. The weight of her disturbing thoughts from the conversation she had with Carlton the previous day, suffocated her so much that she was unable to sleep even if she tried. The more she tried to dismiss the heavy thoughts that hung in her heart, the more her disbelief clung to her like a heavy shroud that what he said could never be possible. Nothing could make her ever believe hi

It was a beautiful morning at a big, luxurious wedding hall, where every detail had been meticulously crafted to exude a sense of elegance and sophistication, and Carlton and Stacy stood at the altar holding their hands and gazing into each other’s eyes with a synchronizing smile curving their lips, as they prepared to take their wedding vows. Stacy donned a voluminous luxurious lacy white gown of exquisite and intricate adorning diamond that shimmered with fierce intensity of beauty, as she looked so radiant like a celestial being before the altar. Her veil softly framed her beautiful face like a halo, as she held a bouquet, her eyes illuminating so much affection for the man that was standing beside her. Carlton was daunting and dashingly ethereal in his custom-made black suit, his tousled, dark hair framing his breathtaking beauty and piercing beautiful eyes, which were a mesmerizing shade of deep blue that gazed into Stacy's eyes, with sheer happiness radiating within him.

It was still the early hours of the morning, and the atmosphere was still quite dampened with barely any sign of sunlight, when Carlton entered the room to find Stacy still sleeping. He shook her shoulder tenderly and teased around her face, as she stirred for a few seconds without waking up. Then again, Carlton whispered something into her right ear as she remained in her deep slumber, which aroused a ticklish feeling in her as her hand tried to rub her ear. “Wake up,” Carlton whispered with a smile, and she finally turned in response to his barely audible voice, her eyes flickering awake, even if she was still slightly groggy. “What is going on, Carl?” she mumbled tiredly as a yawn escaped her lips, but a smile curved his lips instead as his hands grabbed her body and pulled her up from the bed, “What time is it?”“Shhhh. You will wake the kids up,” he cautioned, seeing that she was chuckling quite loudly, as she planted a kiss on her cheek and neck, “Put on something and follo

Months flew by faster than expected, and Stacy had been living her best life with Carlton after Nadia moved to Phoenix with Liam. They kept in close contact through video calls and phone calls, telling one another about the new things they were now invested in and how the new city moved in. Nadia launched her new book after she moved to Phoenix, and better than she thought it would be, it was doing excellently well through the influence of her lovely lover, and social media, which gained her thousands of followers in less than six months. And with the brilliant response and love she received for her medical romance book, she started a sequel. She and Liam moved to the penthouse of a hundred-floor skyscraper in one of the wealthy neighborhoods in the city, which had the best view that she could ever wish for as a home. More than anything, Nadia's life had changed beautifully, more than she could have ever imagined, because of the people she got to meet in her life. Within those few

“Arhhhhhhhhh. I am feeling the heat,” muttered Jasmine, who kept chuckling endlessly as she watched the two endearing couples. “This is making me hate that I am single,” Fiona rolled her eyes playfully and took a glance at Connor, whose attention had been on her for a few seconds, which caused both of them to look away instantly. “Please, do not gloat about your sweet love in our presence,” Jasper whined with a chortle, as everyone giggled wildly as they nudged one another. Natasha raised her glass in a toast amid the sweet public display of affection, “To friendship, and new beginnings!” She declared, her high-pitched voice reverberating everywhere in the garden. Everyone around them lifted their glasses, joining in the toast with cheers and clinking glasses, as they continued to engage in light conversations, while getting prepared for a new dimension of the party. As the evening progressed, the party moved to the center of the garden, where a large open space had been cleared

It was the night of Stacy's baby shower and the party that Nadia had planned went better than anyone could have imagined, especially because of the additional guests that were invited, who were mostly Stacy's and Liam's colleagues from medical school. She invited Ryan too, but he was far out of the country and would not be able to make it. The garden in the mansion was transformed beautifully into a perfect banquet, and the soft hum of beautiful music played in the background, blending seamlessly with the laughter and chatter of the people present, as they ate and drank with their faces lit with joy and merriment. Liam and Stacy stood by one of the tables as they welcomed their few friends from the party that was invited from their medical school, while Nadia invited about four people from her new department at the WILLAND hospital without minding the ordeal everyone's tongues had put her through in the hospital. “I still can't believe you are having a baby!” One of their friends

It had been almost two weeks since Stacy came back into Carlton's life, and their most torrid glow of love had been rekindled countless times so that they couldn't even keep a record anymore. They could not stop snuggling into each other at every moment like young puppies. He was spending his vacation time with her as he had planned to do before, as they caught up with everything they had missed, while he had to spend time with her, and accompanied her to the hospital for her medical checkup. Stacy asked him to keep the house and not move out as he planned, since the entire estate belonged to him, because every memory that they had cherished together was made in the house. It was a beautiful moment when she talked about starting a family together with him in that same house. It was no old news anymore that he was seen spotted with a pregnant woman in a facecap at different places, as media houses blew up with headlines, wondering who the strange lady he was seen with was. It broug

“I am sorry it took this long to come back,” Stacy whispered softly, her heart aching terribly the more she saw the sullen expression etched upon his face as he gazed incredulously at her. He was finding it so hard to believe that it was truly her. Tears streamed down Carlton's face as he slowly buried his head in her shoulder, when he could finally comprehend in his head that it was truly her, “I thought I lost you forever, Stace,” he choked out, his voice laced with so much angst, breaking, “Where have you been? I… I searched for you everywhere.” She sobbed softly, clutching at him with her arms wrapped around his back as if her life depended on it, “I… am so sorry,” she whispered, “I ... .just lost my mind, you know. The truth was too much for me to bear.” “I am so sorry, Stace,” Carlton's voice was heavy as he apologized, “I am so sorry for making you go through a lot by yourself. Please forgive me,” he implored her deeply. “I am more sorry, Carlton. I shouldn't have been sel

TWO MONTHS LATER It had been the longest days of Carlton's life, and he could not even remember how long it had been because he was back to the same pathetic state Stacy met him months ago, when he had just silently lived the saddest and most pathetic life without her. He had begun working from a tiny space in a suffocating and tight space where he separated himself from the world and the world of his own mind, which haunted him with sadness and a pressing weight of depression with which he had no idea when it would end. Though the company was back on track because he had distracted himself by working restlessly to surpass his goals for the remaining half of the year in just a few weeks, he had been like a ghost, haunting the light of the deep darkness that had taken over his happiness. After Alison's cremation, he had sent a lot of emails to Hudson to talk to him, and had even journeyed to his company on several occasions to see him, but every one of his efforts to get through
