Chapter 51 A reasonable answer

*MAXIMUS*I poured myself a glass of wine and winced as I poured it down my throat.Sighing,I refilled the glass again.A knock sounded on the door of the private room.I was in a club.I figured it must be Edgar.I had call him to come drink with me."Come in."I breathed.Edgar walked in and then stopped at the door."You've really taken to alcohol lately even when you know your body can barely handle the after effects."He scolded.I shrugged."I need to momentarily forget my problems."He moved closer and sat opposite to me."This is about the second engagement getting canceled again,isn't it?"I ran a hand through my hair knowing it must be the talk of the town right now.I had stupidly canceled the first one and now,the second one still didn't push through.It was as if everything was against Gianna and I getting married.Not wanting to talk,I continued pouring myself glass after glass and wincing as the alcohol burnt its way down my throat.Edgar sat up."Well, there are rumors goin

Chapter 52 Acid

*GIANNA*I was told that I was bitten by a poisonous snake.I honestly didn't know but I could recall crawling at the ground and feeling a sharp pain at some point.Because it was dark,I couldn't see anything so I assumed I might have been bitten by a bug.It never crossed my mind that I was bitten by a snake at that time.The doctor said that I still had the residual toxin in my body.I was still under treatment for it so I couldn't be discharged for now.I really wanted to get well soon so I can get my travel plans in motion.I was lying on the hospital bed trying to get some sleep.I had barely just started dozing off when I heard the door pushed open by a strong force.The door hit the wall with a loud thud.I sat up,abruptly with a jolt of fear.Then I met Nadia's angry gaze.I glared at her and spoke,angrily."Didn't anyone teach you how to knock?Or any basic manners regarding opening a freaking hospital door?!"She ignored that question and moved closer to me."What did you do,A

Chapter 53 Soulmate

*GIANNA*I watched in disgust as Nadia kept crying in Maxim's arms."Ma…Maxim.I found out that Gianna got hurt because of me.I felt so guilty so I came to apologize to her.I never wanted her to be in such a situation because of me.But she was so angry to see me and she started to beat me up."Maxim slung me a questioning look and I rolled my eyes at him."Gianna,Nadia is also a victim in all this.You're aware of how much Jacob had hurt her.She's still recovering.How could you beat her up like that?"I laughed."She deserved it."I then picked up the bottle."She didn't come in here to apologize!She came here to lash out at me because apparently,you've not gone to see her since she got hospitalized.She wanted to ruin my face with this bottle of acid!Tell him,Nadia!""Bottle of acid?Isn't that just water?How can you accuse me of something like this,Anna?"I watched Maxim let go of Nadia,he then took the bottle from me and placed his finger inside.He brought out his finger and stared at

Chapter 54 Marriage certificate

*GIANNA*Ellie and I froze when we heard footsteps at the door.She quickly ran up to the door to peep and then she ran back to me."That was Maxim."She informed me.I frowned."Do you think he was eavesdropping?He must have heard what we said."I shrugged."That's not my problem.It's the truth.He should accept it."I glanced at the big bag she was holding."What's in the bag?""Oh,I got you all your favorite fruits."Ellie announced and started to bring that out.She rinsed and peeled an apple for me."Thank you."I smiled as I began to eat it."We ate the fruits together and chatted for a while.I so much love hanging out with Ellie."Are you still going abroad?"She asked me.I nodded."I want to.I don't want to be in Maxim's life anymore.It has brought me more harm than good.See,I almost got killed by Jacob and with Nadia still obsessed with him, Lord knows what she'd next.I might not be lucky next time.Being with Maxim isn't worth it at all."I just wanted a peaceful life.Ellie sat u

Chapter 55 The hints

*MAXIMUS*Who else could Gianna marry but me?When I publicly announced my relationship with Gianna back then,part of the reason was to get every other man to back off from her.She was a very beautiful woman so it was understandable that men could admire her beauty but they should know that she was off limits.That stripper Gianna had touched was in jail now.I had dealt with him before throwing him in jail!As for that Scott,I was barely holding back from punishing him.With Gianna going back to school,I know she would have questions if Scott suddenly disappears.So that was why I was holding back,if he pushes me once more,he'll regret it.So yes,it was impossible for Gianna to marry any other man but me!"Since that's not possible,then I think I am right but if you have any doubts,you can just make a phone call,I mean you have connections everywhere,you can easily find out her marital status."Yeah,I could.Just a single phone call and I'll know the answer within minutes.I stared

Chapter 56 The precious ring

Nadia sullenly watched the video Gianna had sent over, the ring sparkled and that sent a sharp pain cutting through her chest.She read the texts in despair."Ah!"She was so angry,she swung down everything on the counter.There was a lot of crackling and shattering.Nadia couldn't accept this.This was too much for her to bear.Trevor just happened to finish checking on a patient and passed by Nadia's ward, hearing abnormal sounds coming from inside, he knocked on the door and then walked in.Then he saw the mess, and Nadia who had a maniacal complexion.Trevor frowned, a flash of impatience flashing across his brow."Nadia, this is a hospital, a ward, not your home, please keep quiet,be calm and stop disturbing the peace of this hospital!"Trevor might be Maxim's friend but he was nothing like Gillian,and would not bottomlessly spoil Nadia and encourage her in her nonsense.He was also not Maxim, who had a soft spot for Nadia.From the perspective of a good friend to Maxim, he didn't

Chapter 57 A good price

*GIANNA*I watched as Trevor changed my drip bag and examined me."Your vitals are stable.You can be discharged this evening.When you get home,get plenty of rest and drink lots of water.The toxins need to be eliminated completely and drinking lots of water will help."I nodded.I felt comfortable with Trevor.He and Ellie were the two people who had really been kind to me since I started dating Maxim."Thank you,Trevor."I said when he handed me a bottle of water and then I saw his eyes running through my fingers.It was as if he was looking for something.Maybe he wanted to examine the spot the snake had bitten.I showed it to him."Here.""No…no.I wasn't looking for that.Where's your ring though.I heard Maxim proposed.You must be so happy right now."I froze.Did Maxim send him to spy on me?"Maxim told you he proposed."Trevor cocked an eyebrow."He kind of did.But I saw the messages you sent to Nadia? I didn't know you were good at showing off.She was crashing out and destroying thin

Chapter 58 My determination

*GIANNA*I was halfway through with my third bottle of water for the day when Maxim's call came in.I frowned at the phone.Was he seriously going to be calling me everytime now?It felt bothersome already.I answered anymore."Hello."His voice sounded soft."How are you feeling?""Better.Trevor said I could be discharged this evening.""That's good."And then there was silence.I immediately understood what that meant.He wasn't coming to pick me up today.I grimaced and waited for him to inform me of that."I have something to do this evening.I…I can't come pick you up."I tried to held back from scoffing."It's okay.I can go home myself.""I'll already sent my driver to you.Don't worry,I'll try to be home for dinner."I might just lose my appetite if he comes home for dinner."Alright."I replied.***************MAXIMUS*I had been in a good mood all day.It was the happiest I had been in a while.Gianna agreed to marry me.She had been so calm and sweet this morning.She even smiled

Chapter 59 Something wrong again

*GIANNA*Maxim didn't call or text me anymore after that and I was glad.Scott and I had dinner together.I absolutely enjoyed the meal and had food.The medicinal soup was really refreshing too.Behind the restaurant was a temple which was on a hip top.Scott just to say after we finished eating."Let's go exercise to digest our meal."He pointed at the hill top.I happened to want to go for a walk as well."Okay."Together,we climbed up the hill.It has stairs that led up leading to the temple and we ascended at a leisure pace.At the top of the hill was a pavilion,behind was a small unoccupied temple.The wind at the top of the mountain was unbridled and comfortable,making me feel refreshed.My hair swayed in the wind and I closed my eyes to feel it even more.It felt so serene.We then headed towards the temple,it was very old and had been rebuilt with wood around it.It was so small inside that it seemed cramped for two people to go in.Two loaves of bread laid on the stone table wi

Chapter 60 Three days

*GIANNA*I laid on the bed unable to sleep.Even if I acted like I didn't care about him.Deep down,I knew I cared.I knew how much pain he experienced when he takes alcohol.Why can't he just stop drinking?!He's going to be fine.Trevor must be here already.He would treat him and make him feel better.A knock sounded on my door."Gianna,it's me,Trevor."I quickly got off the bed and opened the door."How's Maxim?"I asked.Standing in the doorway,he replied."He's going to be fine."I blinked trying to hide how relieved I was."You two fought again,right?""He started it.""Tell me what happened.""A friend of mine,he's a man named Scott,I've known him since my first year in college.I left the hospital with him when I got discharged,we had dinner too and I guess Maxim found out about it and he was furious."Trevor nodded."So he was jealous.But that understandable,Anna.I mean Maxim should be the one picking you up after you just got discharged.And I don't think any man would be comfortab
