All Chapters of The Broken Billionaire: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Karinna watched in horror as nurses pace back and forth inside the intensive care unit. It's been four hours since the operation. The bullet had been successfully removed, but the damage had been underestimated. They didn't expect this kind of hemorrhage. Hindi na niya bilang kung ilang nurse ang naglabas pasok sa Room at tuwing may naririnig siyang sigaw na CODE BLUE ay para siyang mamamatay sa sobrang sakit na dulot ng matinding kirot sa dibdib nya. She remained quiet, faint sobs and shaking hands from fear and guilt. Dapat ako yun. Dapat ako. Dapat ako! Patuloy niyang sinisigaw sa sarili. "Karinna." Nanginginig ang boses ni Adda nung tinawag niya ang kanyang kaibigan. "I called his family. They booked tickets and said they're coming as soon as they can. Lovelia and the other naman are doing their best to help the detectives Para umpisahan na ang Investigation." Tumango lang si Karinna at napatingin sa damit nyang punong puno ng dugo. Vince's blood. "Hindi to totoo." She whispered

There was something odd that morning. The sun was strong against his eyes and the different colors inside the room proved to be too much. He closed his eyes momentarily, he shaked his head lightly all the while trying his best to keep his thoughts straight. Napakapit sya ng mahigpit sa armrest ng wheelchair, nadala ng takot dahil baka mahulog sya dito. Bakit sya nakasakay sa wheelchair? Anong nangyari? Nahimatay nanaman ba sya habang nag-tataping?Gusto nyang tumayo mag-isa at umuwi dahil sobrang nalilito sya sa nangyayari pero napatigil sya ng may makita syang babaeng papalapit sa kanya."Ready ka na ba?" Tanong ng isang unfamiliar na babae sa kanya. "Don't be scared. Ako si Mariza. I've met you a few times already... Ewan ko lang kung tanda mo ako."Met a few times already? Napakunot ang noo nya dahil hindi nya maalala ang mukha ni pangalan ng dalaga. Who was she? Why is he here? Bakit nakasuot sya ng hospital gown at ang dalaga naman eh nakasuot ng uniporme na hindi pamilyar sa kan

He felt the sun's ray reach his eyes, it was a stinging sensation and it woke him up from his sleep. Napaungol si Vince ng may maramdaman syang mabigat na nakapatong sa dibdib at sa may hita nya. He looked on his right side at muntik na syang mahulog sa kama ng makita nyang may nakayakap sa kanya.Makinis na braso at pisngi. Mapula-pulang labi at matangos na ilong. Mahabang pilik mata at ang hindi nya makakalimutang signature trait na kulot na buhok ng dalaga. "Ka... Karinna." Paano nga ba nya ito malilimutan? Ang dating kakulitan na nahantong sa pagkakabuo ng emosyon na kahit kailan ay hindi nya akalaing mararamdaman para sa isang babae."Ke...kelan pa." Tanong nya sa dalagang natutulog ng mahimbing. His whisper hinted happiness, fulfilling his longing... He missed her much. After waiting for her to come, finally she's here. Ilang araw din syang solo dito, nag-iisa, naiinip at naghahanap ng makakausap.He's happy to see her, yet was shy to face her at the same time. Paano nga ba nya

It was almost noon when the doctor finally came in to check on Vincent and she wasn't surprised to see Pauleen and Jet acting like a bunch of zombies as they performed their everyday routines.Christian and Ziel wanted to switch shifts for a day so they could rest, pero sadyang matigas ang ulo ng magkaibigan at piniling ituloy ang Day shift nila. Karinna on the other hand was sleeping soundly next to Vincent. Nakayakap muli ang dalaga sa binata, habang nakapatong ang kanyang hita sa katawan ng binata. It portrays such sweetness, a vision that many would've liked to see."Tough night, huh?" Doc. Bastillas commented shortly with a sympathetic smile on her lips. She was holding a pad containing information about Vincent's vital signs. Everything was actually stable and he was healthy... But what she didn't understand is his unstable and unpredictable seizures and whatever triggers it. "Jet, can you please get his activity log for this month?"Jet nodded and instantly followed the doctor'

Karinna arrived at the venue passed eight o'clock in the morning. Sa Araneta Coliseum backstage ang meeting place nilang lahat, magre-reminisce at mag-dadasal daw muna silang lahat as a form of blessing. As well as they want to solemnly pray for Georgina Martinez's first death anniversary. She parked at the side of the Coliseum and briskly walked hanggang nasa loob na sya ng Building, pero bago pa sya tuluyang makapasok, may humablot at mahigpit na kumapit sa bisig nya at hinili sya. Muntik na syang magsisigaw ng tulong nung nakita nya yung malaking katawan at sobrang tangkad na lalaki. "Erick!" Masigasig na pagbati ni Karinna sa kaibigan. "It's so good to see you! Ang laki lalo ng katawan mo oh, you look so good!" "You too, Karinna! You look..." Tiningnan ni Erick si Karinna from head to toe, mejo nalungkot naman sya sa state ng kaibigan. She just look so tired. "...nice, I guess. Are you okay?" Nginitian ni Karinna si Erick at binigyan ulit ito ng mahigpit na yakap. "Oo naman, le
