Adele

Four years ago

I sat in the library, my eyes scanning the pages of my textbook, trying to focus despite the dull ache forming between my brows.

“Let’s go out today. There’s a party at my boyfriend’s place,” Maya said, plopping down beside me with a grin.

I sighed, barely looking up. “Another party? Didn’t you go to one yesterday?”

Maya rolled her eyes. “So? We’re in college, Adele. This is the time to have fun. We’ll both become lawyers. Do you think we’ll have any time for parties after we graduate?”

I turned the page in my book, ignoring the way she was practically bouncing in her seat. “That’s exactly why I’m not going. I need to study to become a lawyer.”

“You’re so boring sometimes. Just one night won’t kill you. You are always studying.”

I shook my head, waving her away. “Not happening. We have exams, and I got to keep my grades up for my scholarship. Unlike someone who comes from a rich family, I don't have the luxury to party around.”

She huffed, cros

    Asher Present day The room was dead silent, Adele’s words echoing in my fucking head like a gunshot that wouldn’t fade. My Eve had been alive all this time. I should have felt relief. Hell, I should have felt something other than this burning rage consuming me. But all I could think about was the years I spent drowning in grief, thinking she was gone forever. All I could think about was the nights I spent wishing I had been there, wishing I had died with her because living without her had felt like hell. And all this time, Adele knew. My own sister knew. My fists clenched at my sides, my nails digging into my palms. If she weren’t my blood, I would have put a bullet in her head without hesitation. I inhaled slowly, trying to control my rage. Then I lifted my eyes to meet hers. “Finish.” “W-what?” “Finish your story,” I said, my tone like ice. “That wasn’t the end of it, was it? If it was, you would’ve never told me the truth or come crawling for my help. You would

    Asher I stormed out of the room, my mind racing with everything Adele had just told me. “Asher, wait.” She called after me, her voice urgent, but I didn’t slow down. I didn’t even look back. My body was running on pure adrenaline, my main thought was to kill everyone—her parents, her sister, the man she married, every damn single person that even dared to make her cry. They would think twice before taking advantage of her again. When I reached the bottom of the stairs, Mateo and Elijah, who had been leaning against the wall waiting for us, immediately straightened. Elijah’s brows furrowed as he took in my expression. "What happened? What’s wrong?" I ignored him. I grabbed my keys from the table, ready to leave, but before I could reach the door, a firm hand clamped down on my shoulder. Mateo. "I don’t know what’s wrong," he said, his voice calmer than it should have been, "but don’t. Your sister is worried." A low growl rumbled in my chest. How annoying, I don’t have time f

    Eve “I know you want to die, but live, not for anyone else, but for yourself. Please, take my hand. Please! I can't let you die. I can’t—” "Let go. Don't try to save a dead man. Nobody would cry for me if you let go.” His voice was hollow, stripped of everything that made a person human. I tightened my grip on his wrist, refusing to let go. My chest ached as I looked at him. There was no light in his eyes, no fight left in his body. How much pain must a person endure to reach this point? Will I one day find myself here, standing on the edge, refusing someone’s outstretched hand? Will I also break? Will I give up on life? I had no idea. But there was one thing I knew. "Maybe you're right, maybe you have nobody to cry for you," I whispered, my voice shaking. "But don't you think you're selfish for trying to kill yourself? You're still breathing. Your heart is still beating. As long as you’re alive, there’s still a chance for you to overcome everything. Don't give others the sati

    Eve "Eve.” I snapped out of my thoughts, looking up from my hands to meet Emma’s concerned gaze. She was one of my coursemates from college. We had spent a lot of time together back then, but ever since we started our internships at different hospitals, we had drifted apart. Still, when I called her for help, she didn’t hesitate to be here for me. For that, I was grateful. Emma gave me a reassuring smile and gently held my hand. “I'm sorry for taking too long.” I forced myself to smile back. “It’s okay. Are you done with the test yet?” Emma nodded “I am, but can you come and see someone for a second? I know you don’t want to see any doctor, but I really think you should. It’s better to meet a professional doctor rather than an intern.” I frowned, surprised. I had wanted to keep this low-key, which was why I came to Emma in the first place. She was the only person I trusted enough to keep this confidential. Emma took patient dignity seriously, she would never let anyone know abo

    Xander Nathan leaned back in his chair, his smile full of self-satisfaction. "So, I sealed the deal with the Jones family, father. They were difficult to deal with, but after a while, I just had to persuade them to invest in us." I looked at the scene in front of me, keeping my expression blank. Nathan and Gianna were both grinning like fools, waiting for my father’s approval like obedient dogs. My father sat in his seat, his face unreadable, as always. He gave a slow nod, it was barely an acknowledgment but that was enough for them. Nathan straightened up, puffing out his chest like a child being praised for doing something mildly competent. Gianna, ever the doting mother, placed a hand on her son's arm, her eyes practically glowing with pride. I watched, unimpressed. What a joke. This was a waste of my time. The only reason I was here was because my father had requested my presence, and he never did that unless it was something important. But now, listening to Nathan boast ab

    Xander I stared at my father, emotionless. The news did nothing to me—it didn’t surprise me, didn’t shake me, didn’t change a damn thing. The only thing I cared about was how he had found out so quickly. He studied me for a long moment before finally speaking. “You already knew, didn't you? You knew she could fix your legs." Did I? I had no idea. I wouldn’t say I knew for certain that she could fix my legs, but I had my suspicions. The first time we met, when she helped relieve the pain in my legs, was the first clue. Then there was my personal doctor—one of the best in the world, who had looked downright fascinated when I pointed out pressure points she told me to target. It was as if he hadn’t even considered that possibility before. And then, she turned out to be the woman I was marrying, and she was a doctor. At first, I thought it was a stroke of luck, a perfect opportunity. If she could fix my legs, I could use her. That had been the plan. That was why I went to th

    Xander "Why wouldn't you just die? It would benefit everyone if you were not alive!" The night I was nearly murdered by that pathetic excuse of a maid, she had said the exact same thing. And now, here was my idiotic stepbrother, repeating it like a fool who didn’t know the weight of his words. Coincidence? I doubted that. Was Nathan the man I was looking for? No. Too many people wanted me dead. My stepmother and her little puppet were just two among many. But this confirmed something I had suspected for a while. Nathan had sent that maid. How utterly stupid of him. He was still glaring at me, unaware that his mouth had just signed a confession. "What?" he snapped, his voice dripping with irritation. "Do you know why I've never bothered to claim your lives?" I asked, my voice calm, almost amused. "Why I've let you live so many times when I could have easily killed you?" Nathan’s jaw clenched. Gianna narrowed her eyes. "It’s because no matter what you two have don

    Nathan I barely heard my mother’s voice over the ringing in my ears. My breath was ragged, my body trembling as I stared at the shattered vase on the floor. “Nathan, that is enough!” My mother’s voice cut through my haze of anger. “What if your father hears breaking things in your room? What are you doing?!” I saw red. My head snapped toward her, my hand already rising to strike, but then I froze. My mother. “Fuck!!” I snarled, my entire body coiled so tight I thought I might explode. I needed to hit something—anything. And then I saw the maid standing by the door, her head lowered, her presence insignificant. Without thinking, I lashed out. My palm cracked against her cheek, sending her stumbling to the floor with a painful yelp. She clutched her face, but she didn’t make a sound. She didn’t fight back. She wouldn’t dare. Because there were two kinds of people in this world. People at the top, those who held power, those who could do whatever they wanted without consequence

    Xander I opened my eyes. Everything was a blur, and the world spun around me. My body felt like dead weight against the mattress, refusing to respond. My face was damp with sweat. This was the aftereffect of the drug. The only sleeping drug that could actually knock me out, but the price was paralysis. A few seconds where I was nothing more than a prisoner in my own body. I let my gaze drift to the window. It was bright outside. I stared at the ceiling. How exhausting. After a moment, I flexed my fingers, feeling the stiffness in my joints fade. With effort, I pushed myself up. Normally, I shouldn’t be able to stand for an hour, but my body had already adapted to the drug. I swung my legs over the side of the bed, sliding my feet into the slippers. My shirt clung to my skin, damp with sweat. Annoyed, I tugged it off and tossed it onto the bed before heading to the bathroom. I splashed cold water on my face, brushed my teeth, and stepped into the shower. Running a hand through

    RosaI stared at the photographs on the table, my expression indifferent. My legs were crossed, one foot bouncing lazily as I skimmed through them. Levi stopped in front of me, shifting slightly, his face tinged red. “Dr. Rosa, I brought your favourite mint ice cream on my way here.”I glanced up at the big cup in his hands. My eyes flickered to the side, catching Elijah nudging Asher with a knowing grin. “She’s becoming more popular every day,” Elijah muttered under his breath. “You should improve on your moves.”Asher ignored him, as if he were spouting nonsense.Levi hesitated when I didn't say anything. “I’m sorry for getting it without your permission. I didn’t kno—”I smiled, taking the ice cream from him. “Thank you, Levi. I was craving some.”He sighed in relief. I peeled off the lid and scooped a bite with the tiny plastic spoon, letting out a small moan at the taste.“Oh, how’s your older brother?” I asked, eyes still on the photographs. “He’s still going for his checkups,

    Rosa “Hahahaha!” I laughed, my stomach aching from the effort. I clutched my wine glass tightly, trying to keep it from spilling all over my black hoodie and sweatpants. But the more I looked at the three boys in front of me, the harder it was to stop. "How long are you going to laugh for?" Asher asked. I wiped a tear from the corner of my eye, barely catching my breath. "Hah, until I’m satisfied." He scoffed, clearly not amused, which only made it worse. I took a deep breath, shaking my head as I tried to regain composure. "Okay, let me get this straight," I said, holding up a hand. "Elijah and Roman decided to play thief and steal Mia's purse. But then, just like a badly written action movie, our hero, Asher, swooped in and stopped it?" “Yes. How many times am I going to repeat myself?” "Haha. Men," I sighed between giggles. "Sometimes, I seriously wonder what goes on in their heads." Elijah huffed. "It was a perfectly good plan, you know." I arched my brow, smirking. "L

    Mia I stared at the man in front of me. He was too attractive. So much so that my brain struggled to function properly. Xander and this man were both devastatingly good-looking, but in completely different ways. Xander’s beauty was something rare. He looked dignified, refined, almost otherworldly. He looked like he belonged in a painting, a masterpiece that captured everyone's attention. He didn’t need to do anything to make women fall for him, his mere existence was enough. But this man was the kind of beautiful that made you sin. His presence alone was sinful. He was temptation wrapped in leather and tattoos. Everything about him screamed dangerous. "Who the fuck are you?!" The leader of the robbers spun around, aiming his gun at the man. But before he could do anything, his companion froze, his eyes widening in sheer terror. “T-That man… he’s Asher.” The leader stiffened, his face losing all color. "Oh my god," the second man whispered. "What are we going to do?" So, his n

    Mia “You’re so beautiful in person, Mia,” she said warmly.I smiled politely, glancing up from my plate as Mrs. Smith beamed at me.“Oh, thank you, Mrs. Smith.” I returned the smile. “You’re too kind. You’re even more beautiful than I am.”The middle-aged woman laughed, touching her face lightly. “Well, we old folks can’t lose to you young ones.”Beside me, my mother chimed in with her usual charm. “Oh, what are you saying, old folks? You’re very young and beautiful, Mrs. Smith. Sometimes, I have to put in extra effort when dressing up because I don’t want you to outshine me.”Mrs. Smith waved her off playfully. “Oh, really? Well, I’ve been using this new cream lately.”My mother’s eyes lit up. “Really? What kind of cream?”Mrs. Smith leaned in slightly, as if sharing a secret. “Don’t tell anyone, okay? The cream isn’t widely available yet, so all the rich ladies are scrambling to get their hands on it.”My mother eagerly nodded. “Of course, I won’t tell.”Mrs. Smith smiled. “It’s ca

    RosaThe maintenance worker leaned down, extending his hand. “Dr. Rosa, can you raise your hand higher so I can pull you up?”I stretched my arm as high as I could, but my fingers barely brushed his. Damn it. I bent my knees slightly, ready to jump and try again when a strong arm wrapped around my waist.I paused at the sudden touch. Before I could react, Xander lifted me effortlessly, one hand securely gripping my waist, the other... resting firmly on my ass.“....”Don’t look at him, Rosa. Don’t you dare.I clenched my jaw, focusing on the open hatch above. But my body betrayed me. Curiosity won, and I glanced down.Xander met my gaze, as if this was the most normal thing in the world. He raised an eyebrow. “Are you not going to raise your hands?”I smiled playfully. “Mr. Xander, it's not that I'm complaining, but are you perhaps using this opportunity to—” I felt his fingers press ever so slightly “Keep talking like that, and I might reconsider my help, Dr. Rosa.”I chuckled and

    Rosa Twelve years ago They say when you’re about to die, different emotions surface. Some people regret their life choices. Others think about how unfair it all is. Some don’t even understand what’s happening. But I felt nothing. I should have cried. I should have been angry at how unfair this was. It was just tomorrow, and everything would have been over. I would have been free. I could have lived however I wanted. Just one more day. But the world doesn’t give you tomorrows. It only takes and takes until there’s nothing left. The cold water surrounded me, pulling me under. I couldn’t move, and my consciousness was fading. I tried to look for Daisy, but the darkness swallowed everything. She could have fallen anywhere. And from what I saw, I doubted she survived, the car had hit her hard. Ah… so this was how I was going to die. Drowning alone, with no one by my side. I didn’t pity myself. But I pitied the ones who actually cared about me. Theodore, his family….. Xander. Would

    Xander I looked at the woman in front of me, her hand resting on the wall beside me. I turned my head to the other side, but before I could step away, she lifted her other hand, blocking my path. The elevator doors shut behind her, leaving me with no way out until we reached my floor. I exhaled sharply, finally lifting my gaze to her. She was smiling mischievously, her face close but not too close, it was just enough to be annoying. “What are you doing, Dr. Rosa?” I asked, my voice flat. Her smile widened. "I think I should be asking you that, Mr. Xander, because I definitely saw you trying to close the elevator the moment you saw me." I arched a brow, unimpressed. “And?” “And, it looks like the person you were running away from was me. Normally, people don’t run away from me,” she mused, as if genuinely puzzled. “Like you might have noticed, I’m way too pretty for people to do that. So, Mr. Xander,” she grinned, “I’m a little confused. Why are you running away from me?”

    RosaI stared at the CT scan displayed on the computer screen, my fingers lightly tapping against the desk. The results were almost identical to the previous ones, there were no significant improvement. His case was complicated.I glanced toward the see-through observation window. Inside the CT room, Mr. Winters was laying still, the machine scanning his unresponsive body. Beside me, the young doctor shifted nervously. “As we can see from the results, the trauma to his skull caused a severe hemorrhage, leading to the formation of multiple blood clots. The pressure on his brainstem is significant, which likely contributed to his coma.” He adjusted his glasses. “Given his age and the extent of the damage, his chances of regaining consciousness naturally are extremely low. The human brain is unpredictable, and coma recovery is rarely something we can force. It depends entirely on the patient’s response.”I continued analyzing the results. Blood clots. That was the key.
