Aria and Ivy looked at the receptionist, who was staring at them curiously. They were at the Royal Health Care Hospital looking for the head nurse. Danny had informed them that the nurse worked at the neurology department.
Ivy tapped again at the reception desk. "Miss, may I know where I can find the head nurse of the neurology department."
The receptionist gave them a thorough look and pointed towards her back. "Go straight towards the end. You may find head nurse Simi in the second room on the left.
The West sisters went in the direction indicated by the receptionist. The door to the second room opened and a middle-aged lady walked out. She had the nurse outfit on her and was carrying a tray of medicines.
"Excuse me. Are you Miss Simi?" Aria said, stopping the woman.
"Yes, I am. How many I help you, dear?" The nurse asked with a smile.
"We want to talk to you in private if possible," Ivy replied hoping for her to accept.
"We want to talk about our Dad. Please." Aria said, showing her father's picture to the nurse.
The nurse's face contorted in realization. "I am sorry dear. It's against the hospital's rules to reveal about our patients."
"Please. It is important. We haven't seen him for years. It's been three years since he disappeared. Please tell us about him." Ivy pleaded holding the nurse's hands.
The nurse sighed and gestured them to follow her. She walked inside an empty ward and turned to face them.
"Look, I nothing about your father except that he was hospitalized a few months back. Nobody was allowed near the ward other than a few people. And his case was completely handled by the hospital Director."
"Who is the hospital Director?" Aria intervened.

"There is no use in telling about him."
"Why?" Ivy questioned.
"He moved to Australia along with his family and nobody has contacted him ever since."
"Then who is in charge of the hospital now?" Aria asked finding it all strange.
"That I don't know. It is rumored that a new doctor has been made the Director. But nobody has seen him yet. Now I have to go dear." The nurse scurried out of the room.
Aria and Ivy stared at one another.
"Everything is a mess," Ivy said in frustration.
Aria nodded. They had got some hints about their father, only to reach a dead end.
"Let's go."
........
Noah was watching the news about David Peters being taken away for interrogation, when the door opened and his parents walked in along with his grandfather. His mother, Hailey Carter, looked at him with tears in her eyes.
"We leave you for a while and you end up getting shot." His grandfather reprimanded him.
"I am fine Mom. Don't cry."
"Why were you careless?" His grandfather continued. "Have you looked into who was responsible for this?"
"Yes old man. Don't worry." Noah then handed the envelope to his father. His father, Samuel Carter, looked at it in confusion. He opened it and took a look at its contents. His expression turned from confusion to shock and then to rage. He couldn't believe that his ex-wife would be this horrendous. She even hid the truth about their son. He handed the papers to his father.
"What have you thought to do now?" Samuel asked patting Noah's shoulder.
"It all depends on you."
"Although he is my blood, he tried to harm you. I don't accept such things. You are free to do what you want." Samuel said sighing. Hailey couldn't understand a word they were talking about. She raised her eyebrows and her eyes darted between the three men. The door opened suddenly and a beautiful woman in a beige dress strutted in. She was a blonde with her face covered in a thick layer of makeup and her perfume smell was so strong that it made Noah nauseous.

"Caroline, what are you doing here?" Noah asked feigning a look of shock. He knew she was going to visit him soon.
"I came to you to visit you, sweetheart. You must be hurting because of the pain. I am so sorry I couldn't come before. I am so happy that you are fine. I wouldn't know what to do without you." She faked a tear.
Noah rolled his eyes at her exceptional acting.
"Uncle, Auntie, Grandpa. I am so sorry. I didn't see you. How are you?" She asked looking at them finally. She looked like a fragile woman who had lost everything, making one want to protect her. The men clenched their fists, yet gave her a smile. Hailey observed at their odd behavior and looked at her husband for an explanation. He gave her an indication that he would explain everything later.
"Son, we will take your leave. You take care." Noah father said. He nodded at them.
Hailey gave him a hug. "When are you getting discharged?"
"Tomorrow."
"Come to the mansion. You will stay with us for a few days." She said, allowing no room for objection.
"Ok."
After his family left his ward, he turned towards Caroline.
"Umm. Caroline, I need to talk to you."
"Yes, sweetheart tell me."
"Let's break up." He said coldly.
"What? I think I am hearing things." Caroline asked.
"No, you are not. I said let's break up." He stressed each word this time, his voice laced with annoyance.
"You can't do this to me. What did I do wrong?" She wailed throwing the vase near her on the floor.
"Oh. Trust me. I can do a lot more." Noah said, his rage rising to a great level. Caroline shivered. He looked like the asura from hell. She had never seen him this way before. For a minute, she thought that he knew everything about her identity. The next moment she shook her head thinking that it was not possible, she had been careful.
"I know everything about you." The moment these words left his mouth, her body trembled. She knew her end was near. She had gone against someone, whom she shouldn't even have approached in the first place.
"And tell Beth and Eddie, their death is awaiting them. Now get out of my ward." He shouted, making her flinch. She hastily walked towards the door.
"And Caroline." She froze in fear. She was on the verge of a mental breakdown. She had nowhere to go, nowhere to hide. Noah would find her anywhere on this planet. She knew about his power. It was said about Noah that, "Even if you don't get on his right side, don't ever get on his wrong side." And she had done just that.
"You are doomed."

Going on tilt is like falling in love: both make you foolish and should be avoided at all costs. *BROOKEI hate Dean Hollis.I tell myself that every day. And some days, I almost believe it. Some days, I sell myself on at least a solid dislike of who he is and what he stands for.Like his stupid charming smile. His stupid sculpted forearms. And his stupid addictive cologne that leaves me light in the head and weak in the knees. He's a vintage blend of infuriating and intoxicating, all in one deceptively handsome bottle.Let's not forget his notoriety for emotional hit-and-runs. Dean is a bad decision just waiting to happen. I would know.Been there, done that... Literally.*DEANI remember the first time I saw Brooke Maccabe. My first thought was, holy shit. That's the hottest girl I've ever seen. I was trying to think of a good pickup line when she walked up to our door and gave Brendan a hug.My next thought was, fuck my life. Because that dime? She was my best friend's baby sister. And she was sixteen.Verboten. Off-limits. The Demilitarized Zone. She may as well have had a blinking red neon sign over her head that read, 'Look but don't touch: Violation punishable by death'.Problem is, I really wanted to touch.And the even bigger problem is, nine years later, I did.*18+ for explicit adult content
8 186Release Me
Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.
