200. The Euphoric Feeling

Of all the stories he'd told her,Of all the sad news, this was the most devastating.Her own family did this to her.How?Why?Was her love for him enough to make them abandon and try to kill her?This information was too hard to digest. It disoriented her thoughts and puzzled her mind.Did her family disapprove of them?Did she love him so much?Who was he?Who was she?“I'm sorry.” Daryl dropped the frying pan and turned off the stove, his voice heavy with sadness. “I shouldn't have mentioned that now.”He pulled her to her feet and hugged her. “Don't cry, huh?”Was she crying?Was she supposed to cry? But Haley couldn't control her tears as they rolled down her cheeks.She'd asked him so many questions and he'd answered each of them.This was the only question she hadn't asked him yet.It never crossed her mind in fact… how she ended up like this.So it was her family.The family she'd longed every day to at least know who they were.“I'm so sorry…” Daryl kept on murmuring an ap

201. Losing His Mind

…Amongst all the calamities he'd gone through before and those that were coming, this was the greatest.The hardest to cope with. He'd never for a split second thought he could lose her.Liam never saw this great calamity coming.Like a whirlwind, it came and swept away all his existence.His happiness and dreams…Funny how they all went away with her.Would he ever be healed from this heartbreak?Would he be able to?Liam had hoped it was a prank.He'd prayed Haley was playing another trick on him.However, it was the end of their story and the beginning of lifelong loneliness full of haunting memories. “Mr. Nash, here are your schedules for today.”The secretary’s voice broke him free of the confines of his thoughts, pulling him back to the reality he dreaded the most.Ana seemed to love barging in unannounced recently.Or probably he'd always failed to hear her knock. “Where's Joye?” Liam frowned, glancing at the tablet in her hands. The assistant was supposed to bring this to

202. Make Him Forget Haley

What was she doing here?Frowning, Liam glanced from her to his mother.If he wasn't mistaken, Lisa just came out of his parents’ quarters.And to think that she was wearing casual home clothes.“Mrs. Nash. It's okay… She went on, coaxing his mother. “Let's go in or you might catch a cold.”The woman sighed and let go of him. Obediently, she followed Lisa back into the house.Puzzled about what was going on, Liam stood there without any plans of following them inside. A servant walked past and he stopped her. “When did she come?”“You mean Ms. Lawson, Young Master?”Liam nodded to her question.What was Lisa doing in his family's home?Since when did she and his mother become close?“Ms. Lawson came here three days ago. When your mother's illness acted up, she rushed here in the middle of the night.”That night, Liam hadn't been himself.Just like many other nights ever since he lost Haley.He'd gotten several missed calls from the servants as well as Lisa. So it was about his mothe

203. Something Strange

Lisa looked down, her lips stretching into a small smile. “Mrs. Nash, this is a huge request you asked for.”“I know!” Vera stroked her hair. “But you're so good to me. I know you'll make a perfect wife for Will. At first glance, you're unlike Leah who's a traitor and two-faced. You're genuinely kind at heart, Lisa… Please accept my request.”Lisa kept her head lowered, staring at her hands. Glancing from the girl to his mother, Liam couldn't believe his ears.Would the woman never stop until she saw to his or her room?She'd pushed Leah onto him and now she wanted to repeat the same thing. If the woman hadn't claimed that Leah saved her life, Liam would never have noticed her. No doubt, saving his mother's life was a well-orchestrated strategy by both his father and Leah to get her close to the family and get rid of his mother someday. “Come on, Dear…” When Lisa did not reply, Vera went on. “I know you have a thing for my son. Consider this as your chance of becoming the new Mrs.

204. Her Boyfriend

…At The Island.She'd been sitting on the lounging chair since morning.She'd lost count of the number of coconut milk she'd drunk to keep herself from getting hungry. Except for the yacht captain fishing in the sea, nobody else was in sight.Boredom and loneliness consumed her, but in its wake was the anticipation of when he'd come back. This was the first time he'd left her side ever since she woke up.It felt strange at first, and even now Haley was uncomfortable.However, she'd also been anticipating today for three days now. “Why don't you join me, Miss…” The yacht captain called out, his voice carried by the breeze. “You appear lonely over there.”Haley shook her head, waving with a smile. Of all the instructions Daryl had given her, he'd made it clear that this was the most important.She wasn't allowed to speak with strangers. “I can teach you fishing!” He yelled out again. Fishing?Whatever he was doing outside there fascinated her,But the big wide sea ahead terrified

205. Leaving The Island

Strangely, the headache went away the moment it came, however, leaving a strong impact that had her swaying backward.In the next second, she lay on the floor still hugging the little girl.“Are you alright, Mummy?” Frowning a bit, Lannie touched her forehead.Was Haley alright?This sudden headache came out of nowhere.Was it a part of her illness?Or was it a sign that she was recovering? “I- I’m fine.” She got up, trying to put on her best smile. Daryl was already on their side, the worried look on his face worse than that of Lannie. He squatted beside her and touched her forehead. “Is everything okay?”Haley nodded. What happened to her just now was beyond explanation.How was she going to put it in a way that he'd understand?Was this a positive improvement or a negative one?Daryl withdrew his hand, giving her a cautious look as if he didn't believe her. But then, his expression transformed into that of a radiant smile. “I've fulfilled my promise, right?”Haley chuckled. “S

206. Sent Back

His answer came out harsh and sharp, jostling her.Why couldn't they go with Lannie?Were they supposed to leave her here alone with no one but that crazy yacht captain?“Damnit!” A look of regret flashed in his eyes and he cursed under his breath.Daryl came forward and embraced her. “Sorry if I scared you.”Indeed, she'd been terrified to the bones. This side of him, although he only showed it for a second, scared her.It almost reminded her of a particular person frowning and snapping at her.Who was that person though?Why was her heart racing? “I'm sorry…” Daryl repeated, murmuring against her hair. Gradually, she calmed down, her heartbeat steadying.Haley returned the embrace, wrapping her arms around him. “Why isn't Lannie coming with us?”“The journey will wear her out.”“She's gonna feel lonely-”“I know.” He sighed. “But we're not gonna take long… we'll be back in a jiffy.”“Really?”“I'll also hire someone to look after her while we're gone,” Daryl added, his assurance

207. Take Her Away

…Despite searching through every nook and cranny of the city, Liam couldn't get his hands on a single clue to prove Joye's assumption right.More specifically, the rumors flying around the city.If Haley was alive, who was that woman he'd seen lifeless on the hospital’s bed?The resemblance was uncanny, and it just didn't make sense.If she was alive, would her family have buried her?The rumors started from the funeral and nobody knew who started the rumors.Probably the paparazzi who wanted to drive network to their website.Nobody knew of her identity until after her death.And apart from the rumor that she was still alive, there were other strange rumors that her family had a hand in her death.It all didn't make sense.Nobody should believe everything the media said.“Uhm, Mr. Nash-” A gentle tap on the table brought him back to the present.Liam returned his attention to the man sitting across from him. “- I hope everything's alright,” The man added. Liam shook his head.If

208. Her Hideout

…Why would he take her away?She'd only spent a night.Wasn't that journey too tiresome for a little girl?How could he be so cruel?Why?Despite all the reasons he'd given her, Haley couldn't bring herself to believe any of them.No reason was strong enough for him to take her away. She'd looked forward to meeting her baby,But then, he just had to crush her happiness by sending her away behind her back.“Still mad at me?” He came inside the room, his tall frame towering behind her. Haley didn't move or glance at him. Sitting on the edge of the bed, she fiddled with the little hair clip in her hands… the only reminder of Lannie.“I said I'm sorry…” He sat beside her, sighing heavily. “It has been three days already… let it go.”Let it go?How could she let it go?Wasn't Lannie their child?Why would he treat a little girl that way? Haley shifted away from him, inching closer to the bed’s headboard. “Come on, we're the only two people in this house,” he said helplessly. “I'll die

Cheating with his brother?What did he mean?And why did he look so alike with Daryl- her husband?What was this strange feeling in her heart?“Speechless, huh?” He pinned her down with a hard glare that made her shudder. “You never thought I'd ever find you or anyone else in such a situation.”Then he laughed, a bitter chuckle that squeezed her heart. “You could even fake your own death to be with him. Is that how much you love him?” Everything he said troubled and unsettled her heart.Why would she fake her own death?Who exactly was he?Why did he look as if she'd picked up a knife and stabbed his chest? The guy beside her moved.This time, he was widely awake.Sitting on the bed, Daryl's gaze darted from her to his brother, his eyes wide, his expression paling like an ash. “Oh, shit! How the hell did you find this place!!!”His question fell on deaf ears.The man ignored Daryl's exclamation, retaining a blank look.Then he turned towards the door and snapped his fingers.In the
