Lost And Found Hearts/Park Cheal
Chapter Eleven Chapter Eleven I wake up to the view of Nolan and Simeon beside me. The room is silent, save the rhythmic beeping of the machines surrounding me. My eyes are a bit blurry, but I manage to see Nolan sitting closer to the bed; his hands are clasp together, his eyes red and swollen as if he hasn't slept. Simeon and our maid stand by the window, arms folded across their chest, his face a mask of concern. My body feels heavy, and my mind is foggy with a lot of exhaustion and confusion. The truth of both of them being here may be a bit hard for my brain to wrap itself around at this moment. My throat is parched, my voice barely audible. "Simeon, why are you not in school" I manage to say. "How do you expect me to be in school when you are here?" My son walks towards me. As Simeon walks to me, his small, worried face tugs at my heart. Scared, his eyes are wide, and in that second, I have forgotten it all—Nolan, the crash, the betrayal. He's my son. "I didn't want

Chapter Twelve“Marie, it's not that I wanted the accident to happen….”“Really? You didn't want the accident to happen? But where was I coming from? Wasn't it the message I saw that made me start coming over there?”“Marie, it's trapped. didn't want to tell you this, but I think I can no longer keep it from you, I am sorry”I listen attentively, not replying to him “I traveled then, right" he says, I didn't travel because of work, I lied…” he says trembling.My eyes are wide open, “Why? Why did you travel? wasn't it because of work?”“I am sorry…”“Talk” I snap.He nods, “You see that I had to travel urgently”“Can you just talk…”“I actually hit someone in an accident and it was very bad, soit was only Nancy who knew I was the one who hit the woman. I didn't wait, I speed up”I freeze, my heart suddenly pounding in my chest. The words just hang there, hanging in the air and heavy with tension, the weight of something far deeper than I'd expected."What?" My voice is barely a whispe

Lost And Found Hearts/Park Cheal
**Chapter Thirteen: A Betrayal of the Worst Kind The nurse leaves the hospital room, leaving silence once again. But in my head, it is a very different matter. The words of Nolan keep swirling in my mind, a vortex pulling me under waves of confusion and anger. I feel trapped, ensnared by the love I once felt for him and the weight of his crushing truth.My eyelids grow heavy, and I close my eyes, attempting to rest. Again, though, the sound of footsteps approaching makes me open my eyes. The door opens very slowly. For a moment, I think it is Nolan again, but it is not him.Nancy entered the room with excessively composed countenance, her face radiating no trace of bother about anything in this world. Her eyes then focused on mine-cold and calculating. Instantly my heartbeat quickened because I always tried hard to sit up a little."What are you doing here?" I ask in strains tones.Nancy doesn't answer immediately. She walks over to the machines alongside me, the tips of her fingers

Lost And Found Hearts/Park Cheal
Chapter Fourteen: A Revelation UnveiledThe room is silent after Nolan has gone. The dull beeping of the machines is the only sound that manages to keep me oriented in reality. My mind, however, is lost in this sea of confusion and betrayal. I close my eyes and let out a long shaking breath. How did all these get so out of hand?Honestly, I do not know what more to think. The man I thought I knew, the man I loved, allowed Nancy of all people to walk away unscathed after trying to hurt me. How am I supposed to make sense of that? Regardless of what's going to happen, he shouldn't have let her go if he loves me I press a hand against my forehead, the dull ache settling there. Nolan's words still echo in my brain: "I did it to protect you, Marie." Protect me from what? From the truth? From his own guilt?My heart clenches painfully. A part of me so desperately wants to believe him. Wants to believe that somewhere deep down, he cares about me enough to want to keep me safe. But after ev

Chapter Fifteen: The Veil of ThreatsThe crisp hospital sheets are too tight around me, though they have already told me that I could finally go home. The words of the doctor-complete rest-are as if an echo in my head since I have been doing anything else all these days. It is not just the body that requires healing; there's much more inside that is broken.I wait for Nolan, trying to push the exhaustion that clings to me away. I didn't expected him to pick me up, for that matter. I didn't expected him to be around much at all after everything that happened. But he's here, showing up, reliable as ever, despite the tension grown between us.The door opens and I look up from my bed. Nolan is standing in the doorway. His face is soft, his expression is unreadable. Probably he's relieved that I am being released from the hospital “Ready?” He asks with a soft, cautious voice.I nod and start to feel a wave of dizziness as I stand. He steps forward quickly, offering his arm, and though I

Chapter Sixteen: Breaking the SilenceI resume work on Monday. My office is too quiet as I step inside. I leave my office and head to Nolan's office, to tell him that I have arrive.Nolan is sitting at his desk, staring down at the paperwork in front of him, but he doesn't seem like he's reading it.He looks up as I come in, and for a second, a flash of relief crosses his features-relief that I am here and we can finally talk. I take a deep breath, feeling all the unsaid words between us."Marie," he says, standing and walking around the desk. He is hesitating; he seems unsure of what he wants to say next.Nolan, we need to talk," I begin, though I am fully aware of what I am going to say. I have been since…well, since everything between us went complicated. "I don't want to keep pretending anymore."He looks at me worriedly, “Marie, what do you mean?”I mean us," I say, carefully "We've been dancing around this for to her tune for too long, and I can no longer continue that anymore”

Chapter Seventeen: Debt to be Repaid It is one of those afternoons, few and far in between, when the air seems light and, for an instant, a blind eye is turned toward the thoughts of the past. The giggles of Simeon resonate in the living room as he tosses his ball into the air, his little face alight. I sit in the living room and cross my legs. His joy is infectious and that pulls me away from the heavy fog. Then, the doorbell rings. A sound that brings reality crashing back. I rise, wipe my hands on my jeans, and head towards the door. My heart skips a beat as I pull it open to find Nolan standing there. He is tense. His usual clear and easygoing expression clouded with something heavier-guilt, maybe, fear, definitely. "Marie," he says softly, stepping in. His eyes flick to Simeon then back to me. "Are you ready for this? I shoot a sideways glance at my son, who still plays away, completely oblivious to the tempest brewing around us. I nod, but my chest constricts as it really h

Chapter EighteenNolan is sitting behind his desk and he is going through the documents in front of him when a gentle knock breaks his concentration.Without waiting for his response, Nancy opens the door and enters, a sly smile playing on her lips.“Hey there, big guy," she purrs, leaning against the doorframe. Hers is a voice full of honey, at complete variance with the tension that fills the room. "I thought I'd come by and see if you needed a little distraction from all this paperwork."Nolan arches an eyebrow, unimpressed. "This isn't the time, Nancy.The smile falters a moment before she quickly regains her composure, swaying her hips as she moves into the office. "Oh, come on. You don't have to be all business all the time. I can lighten the mood, you know."Nolan's looked at her firmly, “I think it's time we talk now, it's time we talk about your position here”“My position? What has my position do with what we are about to do? What do you mean?”He takes a deep breath, befor

--- Chapter Nineteen: A Choice Between Love and Revenge I am inside when the doorbell rings. I didn't expect anyone by this time of the day, it's late at night and I am not expecting a visitor either Simeon is in the living room playing with his toys when I heard it. But only one person can come looking for me and that's Nolan . I glance at the time: 8:45 PM. He normally calls first. I wipe off my palms on my apron as I take a deep breath. I open the door and there he stands, tall and composed. My Nolan. “Nolan” I say softly. “It's late, what are you doing?” I ask worriedly. He steps inside without uttering a word. He looks at Simeon for a second before his gaze locks onto mine. “I miss you Marie” he says, his voice low but steadfast, “I just can't keep this again, I think it's time I talk” I nod, gesturing to the couch for him to sit. Simeon looks up from his toys, gives Nolan a big grin, completely insensitive to the tension filling the room. "Hope there's no

Chapter Twenty Nolan's face darkens as he takes a deep breath, taking this in. His jaw clenches then, and the air in the room grows just a bit thicker. "I didn't just know Leo," Nolan says, his voice low and controlled. "We used to be close. Very close." My heart sinks because the connection between Leo and Nolan had been a connection that I never knew existed. How could I have missed this? My mind is swimming as I try to put it all together now. "Why didn't you tell me?" Nolan goes on, irritation lacing into his voice. "Why didn't you say anything about your ex-husband being him?" I feel like I'm standing on shaky ground. "I didn't know it would matter, Nolan. Leo and I… we don't talk anymore. I didn't think it was relevant anymore." Nolan runs his hand through his hair, he keeps on pacing back and forth, “Marie, it matters. You don't know about him, you don't know about everything he has done. I really can't take this in, Leo is your husband?” He stops glaring at the fam
