Bryan on the other hand was second-guessing himself when the questions that were asked revealed that he made a hasty decision in terminating Diana. He should have investigated first before sending out that letter. Otherwise, the higher-ups will find fault in him.

Clara however was pale-faced when the Officers interrogated her. She tried to be as calm as possible but when she was asked what she thought of Diana, her reaction betrayed her. She was green with envy in Diana that the Officers were able to see that she indeed had a motive.

"Let's not waste our time here. Tell me, why did you do it?" the officer asked, leaning towards Clara with cold eyes that frightened her.

Clara's whole body went cold. Now, she's done for.

"I didn't do anything. It was Diana's fault. She was negligent. She should have kept her eyes on the specimens. She shouldn't have left it unattended. She should have made sure

    Later that night, Diana was folding her clothes after cleaning up and doing her laundry. The apartment's door opened and Heather came in, changing her shoes into slippers. "Hey Di! Did you eat yet?" Heather asked when she noticed Diana just getting out of her bedroom. Diana shook her head. "Nope, I was waiting for you. I cooked dinner." Heather noticed that Diana's mood had improved significantly. She didn't look as saddened as she did before. "Aww.. you didn't have to wait for me. Hehehe So what did you cook?" Heather sniffed, trying to smell the food. "Beef stew.. I got rice too. I found a recipe while I was on Chatify today." Diana said, smiling. She got up and set up the table. Heather went to her room to put her things down and washed her hands. Taking their seats, they talked about random stuff t

  • When Love Blooms Finally   First Day Of Work

    In the morning, as Diana rode the cab on the way to Forrest Research Institute, she made a call to Professor Kenneth Lim. He didn't pick up so she just left him a voicemail, telling him that she got the job and was thankful for letting her use his name as a Reference. When she reached the address, she wasn't able to get in right away as she needed to undergo security checks and the regular cabs can't enter the complex. She had to wait outside of the gate as they checked her ID. As soon as she was cleared to go, she saw a mobile that looked like a golf cart, approaching her. A man got off and introduced himself to her. "Good morning. I'm Ethan Taylor, Mr. Lucas's Assistant. How do you do Ms. Winchester?" Diana was shell-shocked that he knows her name and he even personally came to the gate. "Oh. Yes. I'm doing good. Thank you for asking. How are you?" Diana asked

    "Ms. Silva" Ethan Taylor looked at Tamara questioningly as he saw her when he opened the door. "Mr. Taylor." Tamara nodded. "I'm here to inform Mr. Ingram of the list of new applicants for the laboratory technician position. I was told to let him know if people from Hopton Research Institute will apply." Ethan nodded in understanding. He opened the door wider and let Tamara enter. He stayed with them in the office. "Good day Sir. Here is the list of the applicants. There are two people from Hopton Research Institute who applied for the position." Tamara said, giving the folder with the applicants' resumes. Lucas flipped through the files. "There's a Mr. Cook with managerial experience and the other is a Senior Laboratory Technician." "I see. Let them appear for the interview. I want you to be thorough in evaluating the applicants." Lucas instructed, looking at her pointedly.

    Diana gasped in shock as she looked at the man in front of her. He was still staring down at his phone as if waiting for a call or a text. He didn't see the young woman staring at him. Ethan cleared his throat, stopping the elevator's door from closing by pressing the button. "Miss? Are you getting in?" "Ah! Yes. Sorry. Umm--Thank you." Diana said, trying to get herself together. "Good day. Mr. Ingram, Mr. Taylor." At the sound of her voice, Lucas finally looked up. His eyes widened at the sight of her. "Diana" his voice sounded breathless. Diana nodded. "Hi." she said, waving her phone. As if that was her reply to his message. Lucas's eyes blinked. He chuckled. "How are you?" "I'm doing well, thank you for asking. How about you?" Diana smiled kindly. She had to admit that even if she was a little disappointed that he didn't contact her before even after initiating the

    At Forrest Research Institute, the applicants were lined up outside the conference room. Men and women, newly-graduates, and experienced workers stood waiting for their turn to be interviewed. Some of them were reading the Institute's Mission, Vision and Philosophy hoping that it will help them impress the interviewers, others were praying or holding their amulet, and there are some busily fixing themselves, making sure that there is not a hair out of place. Among the applicants, Clara and Bryan stood next to each other. Both of them are applying for a Laboratory Technician position. Bryan wanted to apply as a Supervisor there, but because the Institute was not currently looking to hire new Supervisors, he decided to apply for this position instead. He can work his way up afterwards, he is sure of it. After all, with his experience, he will surely get a promotion right away. Before Clara stood a girl wearing formal

    Inside the Conference room, Tamara was still waiting for Kate. They've already interviewed a number of applicants. She left the other resumes on her table earlier so she asked Kate to bring it over. But it has already been 5 minutes and still no sign of Kate or another Lab technician. "Excuse me for a moment." Tamara excused herself. "I'll go check outside." The other interviewers nodded. She left the Conference room and looked left and right to find Kate or another Lab technician from her department. "How shameless of you to even be here?! After the crap that you did back at Hopton Research Institute, you have the guts to even come here? Isn't endangering the patients' lives more than enough?" Tamara heard a loud voice several feet from her. It was obvious the speaker intentionally said it so others will hear. Tamara was dismayed.

    Tamara was about to lose the last bits of patience she has. She had already planned this day so it would go smoothly, and these two have made a mess of things here. When she did a background check on Bryan Cook and Clara Holt after sensing her boss's attitude at the mention of Hopton Research Institute, she was only looking at it from a perspective of an employee only doing her job. Now facing these two people harassing Diana Winchester, she can't help but feel empathy towards Diana. She did a background check on Diana before right after her speedy hiring. She knows that Diana is always top of her class and even graduated top of her year. Mr. Taylor only told her to offer a job to Diana.

    Lillian, Ernest and the rest arrived at the airport and were quickly assisted through the process. They were able to leave the airport and head to their residence easily. Adrian looked around and saw that everything seemed strange in his eyes. Nothing was familiar to him. It was when they were finally close to the mansion when he recognized the structure. He had dreamt of this place so many times. It had become hazy at some point. But now, he could see that this was more or less the place he lived in before he was taken. It had some new additions along with other changes such as the paint and the landscape design. But the overall structure was the same. As they entered the gates, he saw that there were a lot of people outside of the house. They were lined up even in this cold weather. Most of them seemed to be wearing uniforms under their black coats. The only ones who looked different than the others were the three couples and two young men. “Ah.. Everyone’s here.” Emma smiled

    Adrian and Violet were apprehensive when they saw the big plane that they were going to ride on.Fortunately for them, they were flying through the private plane of the Lovell family, else, they would be even more embarrassed by the way they were acting.To their memory, this was their first time being on any plane.That simply was not true for Adrian, as the family had gone on vacations before that needed the plane. It’s just that this memory may have been forgotten by Adrian already.As for Violet, this was her first ever flight.They at least knew what a plane was.They were only anxious as to how they would feel once they’re already up in the air.Lillian and the rest tried to distract them from these thoughts.Hugh and Leroy offered them some wine and snacks.Emma and Priscilla showed them the movies they could watch on the screen in front of their seat.Lillian especially made sure they felt warm and comfortable, giving them blankets and pillows, showing them how to recline thei

    “Yes, Dad. Alright–Mn..Goodnight.” Lucas said to Hugh on the phone.Hugh had called him to let him know that they would be heading back in the morning with Adrian and his friend, Violet.Hugh and Leroy’s secretaries have received updates regarding a background check on Violet’s family.They’ve decided to let Violet stay with the Lovell family as a guest.In the residence, there’s usually only the elders living with their staff. Usually, it would be busier during holidays and if there are any special occasions. In those times, everyone would gather in the residence and stay in their rooms reserved for them.Lillian and Ernest have held out hope that Adrian would return to them so they never thought of letting anybody else use it.Lillian would personally clean it and it was only in the later years that she let her staff help her.She wanted to preserve whatever remaining scent Adrian had left.There were times when she would burst out in tears, realizing that she could no longer recall

    Soon, the driver, John Garcia, pulled up outside of the hotel where Lillian and the rest were staying.Adrian was no longer as anxious as he was half an hour ago, still he could still remember the bullets trying to penetrate through the car and the explosion after those goons’ cars had collided.Detective Jones glanced at him, noticing how pale Adrian was.Still, he commended him for not breaking down and not getting in their way.And also, because of him, they were able to rescue so many people who have been missing for years.Perhaps the Mayor might even think of rewarding Adrian because of his contribution.At the moment though, it was inappropriate to bring it up, given what the man had just experienced.So after escorting them to the hotel, Detective Jones left them, joining the other Officers with the rescued people.It was a field day for the reporters, gathering outside the police department.On the televisions of most households, they showed several people with their heads lo

    As John Garcia was driving the car forward, everyone in the car held their breaths.They already knew that those people were Mortimer’s men. They could only play along for now, hoping for them to think that Adrian was in the other cars.But then–that possibility is very low.The black car they’re in was far from ordinary upon close inspection.And like clockwork, shots rang.Adrian ducked, covering his head with his arms.John Garcia gripped the steering wheel while Howard Dawson and Detective Jones cocked their guns.A voice of one of the policemen came on the comms. “Keep going. Follow the second group!”No matter what, they couldn’t let Adrian and the people who had just been rescued be in Mortimer’s hands again.John Garcia didn’t hesitate and quickly sped on.Mortimer’s men have picked the road where there’s only farm crops on each side, the road only leading one way.The city was still quite far so blending in or hiding in some alleyway would still be impossible.For now, they s

    The drive was calm, with John Garcia, the driver not making any stops if he could help it.The car could drive even without gas as it can run on solar power.It could be recharged at a charging station, could store gas and could be powered through solar. This is all thanks to the upgrades done by the Lovell Technologies.With the drive being calm, Adrian fell to sleep.Even Detective Jones dozed off as well, his head hitting the window a couple of times.An hour into the drive, the car suddenly beeped in alarm.Adrian and Detective Jones groaned, having been woken up by the alarm.“What is it? What’s happening?” Detective Jones asked.“There seems to be an accident up ahead.” John Garcia answered, pointing at the GPS shown on the screen in front of him.“Is there another road we can take?” The bodyguard, Hoyt Cole asked.“This is the only road back to Westbury..” John Garcia answered.“Maybe the road is not totally blocked–” Detective Jones said.“Alright then–we’ll keep going..”“Sta

    After canvassing the full layout of the building and accounting the number of people inside, Detective Jones and the other Officers made their strategic plan.An hour later, they made their move.Adrian was made to stay in the car while he viewed their perspective from the tablet device.He was given eyes for different cameras. Two more Officers were also monitoring it from their tablet devices.They compared every person found to the sketches from Adrian’s description of the people held captive. And also of the ones Adrian said were the people who ordered them around.Adrian watched as the trained Officers infiltrated the area covertly.CCTV cameras were hacked and made to play the same view over and over again.They knocked out the guards with tranquilizers, making sure they wouldn’t be waking up so soon.They were separated into groups. One made way to the sleeping quarters of the captives, another entered the main building, and another surrounded all possible exits.There were onl

    Adrian held her hand, squeezing it.At that moment, Hugh returned to the room and was startled by the silence.“What happened?” He asked. His eyes wandered to Violet who now had her head lowered, her hand covering her eyes and her shoulders shaking.‘Is she crying?’ His brows furrowed.“Violet just remembered what happened that time when she was taken away.” Emma summarized it for him.He nodded. “By the way–I’ve just received information just now. Violet–it has something to do with you. If this is not a good time, I won’t say it.”She looked up, quickly wiping her tears with the cloth napkin.“No, please, I want to hear it.”Hugh nodded.“What is it, Hugh?” Emma asked.“It’s about her family.”They all glanced at Violet, gauging her reaction.“I remember–my mother died that time.” She said.Hugh nodded, confirming what she had remembered.Her heart fell. Deep inside, she was hoping that she was wrong. That she remembered it wrongly.Tears continued to fall down her cheeks. The napkin

What is it?”Adrian was startled.He stepped back to check if he knocked on the correct room or not.“You have something you need from Violet?” She smiled.His brows shot up. “Oh. Um–I was going to bring her to the dining room.”“Ah.. I see. Well, just in time. We’re done here as well.” Emma smiled. She turned her head and called over. “Come on you two..”“Okay!” Priscilla said. “Let’s go Violet..”Priscilla brought Violet over.Adrian was struck for a moment when he saw Violet.He had never seen her so dolled up.Her hair was beautiful and so is her overall look. Her face was even more beautiful than usual.Violet’s head hung as her cheeks blushed bright red.Adrian cleared his throat.“Let’s go..” Adrian tilted his head.“Mn.” Violet nodded.
