"Madam, do you want me to bring you something to eat?" The Butler asked as he watched her expression. "Yes, please." Hailey nodded at him. Although she also preferred the homemade food, she couldn't just eat Kendrick's food even though she was tempted to. He was sick after all. He might also wake up hungry. "Okay, Madam. I'll be right back." The Butler gave her a nod and turned around. He was about to leave the room when Devon whose attention was on his phone looked up. "I would also like to have some food, Collins, "He said to the Butler. Then as if changing his mind, he waved his hand and said, "Just forget it. I'll go and get one." He rose to his feet and put his phone inside his pants pocket. "How about I take you to a fancy restaurant for some launch, Hailey?" He held out his hand and proposed. His once taunting grin was now changed to a friendly smile. And somehow, Hailey found herself mesmerized. She had to admit, because it wouldn't miss the eye that the guy was good-loo

'Oh, God.'Hailey covered her mouth to stifle her gasp. And Devon went on with his eyes fixed on the road. He didn't seem to know that she had no idea of the things he was talking about. He would even glance at her now and then to seek her opinion, and Hailey could only give him a nod.She listened on and everything became clearer. The reason why Kendrick had wanted her marriage with him to be a secret was because there were always threats to him. He didn't want to reveal her to the public. Because he was afraid something bad might happen to her. And especially because she was pregnant, he wouldn't risk losing her and above all, the baby. Hailey only sank into more confusion. The more things were revealed, the more confused she get.Was that why Kendrick had always gone everywhere with the bodyguards with him? Even those times he had escorted her to the hospital for a check-up. No wonder he always wore a mask. He didn't want someone to recognize his face behind that mask. He didn

Hailey was left standing alone in the parking lot and alone with her thoughts. Another miracle? That shouldn't be impossible. But more children with Kendrick? Her body shuddered at the thought. Was that ever going to happen? Of course not. And now Hailey was afraid. She was afraid of so many things at once. Several minutes passed by and she remained standing in the parking lot. She finally collected herself and entered the hospital. She went straight to the elevator which took her to the top floor. When she stepped her foot out, her eyes lingered on the bodyguards ahead.All of them were taking turns and walking back and forth in front of the door. And for the first time, she noticed something.Apart from the room Kendrick was admitted to, no other room had patients in the area. There were no other people in the hallway apart from the bodyguards. The other doors were shut and never opened. Kendrick had reserved the whole VIP area. She trudged forward with her head lowered and ap

Well, that wasn't enough to fool Kendrick. He hadn't tried to make her open up. He wasn't planning to in any way. One thing he had learned about her was her dislike for being pestered. And despite knowing many ways to make her speak, because he knew she eventually would, Kendrick just felt the need to let her be. He would find Devon, wherever on the whole planet he had gone to. He didn't even need to find him. Devon would eventually show himself.It wouldn't take him long. He would always appear in his office doorstep. If not for him, then for his newfound obsession. "Master, the doctor would like to speak with you." The Butler appeared from his side, breaking him off his thoughts. Kendrick gave a nod and sat on the bed. "Tell him I'll go home. He should prepare the necessary things."He didn't see the need to linger in the hospital. It almost felt like a waste of time. Apart from waking up, eating food, taking drugs, and falling asleep, nothing else happened in his life these da

A dark chuckle left Kendrick's lips and he shook his head. Now he was determined to dig her out from wherever she was hiding. She had a price to pay and also an explanation to give. Seeing no reason to linger in the study room as he had nothing there to do, Kendrick turned to go out. And before he reached the door, he halted and frowned. The Butler must have brought the reports. Did he hide them well? Well– he shouldn't wait there and wonder. He had to find out himself. So he turned around and headed back inside the room, going straight to his work chair. When he drew out the drawer, his eyes were met with the reports stacked upon one another. And the white bag that contained his drugs sitting on them. This was not the best place to hide them. It might be a good idea even to have them shredded. But that could wait. Right now, he had more important things to take care of.Where was Hailey? Therefore, with that in mind, he left the study room for the stairs again, his eyes wander
