A sheet covered the girl’s legs, but the smell of blood was unmistakable. She was a very strong woman, lying there, motionless, and not making a sound of discomfort. 

“Peter… I don’t know how long I’ll be in the hospital. Please, could you help me take care of Spike? He trusts you, could you look after him for me? If something happens to the, I want you to take care of him… Please… 

“Celeste, don’t say silly things. You only have some broken bones, but nothing will happen. It’s just a surgery. You’ll go in and out so fast, you won’t even notice the time 

“Peter, they’re going to anesthetize me, I’ll be asleep for a few hours. Could you promise me that, if something happens, you’ll take care of my old cat?” 

“You don’t need to ask! In fact, I’ve already sent my son and Ethan to pick him up. He’ll live with us for a few days while you recover,” Peter said, holding Celeste’s hand tightly. 

“Thank you!” Celeste said, tears streaming down the corner of her eyes. 

“Celeste, I’ve told you, you matter to me. I want a life with you, and I’ll take care of you now and always. When you wake up, I’ll be waiting for you. You can be sure of that,” Peter said, planting a warm kiss on her lips.

“Mr. Palmer, I know this terrible accident is very distressing, but I assure you we’ll take care of the investigation and get to the bottom of it.

She had a feeling Marcus knew something, but couldn’t find the words to ask him. Her stomach hurt, the cramping coming and going. 

“Marcus? Marcus?” Valerie said, a bit dazed. 

“Tell me, my love!” Marcus replied, looking at her closely 

“Can we go home? I don’t feel well!” Valerie said, her face pale and tired. 

“Yes, my love!” Marcus took his wife’s hand and helped her stand up.

“Val, my love, I think you should sit for a moment more… Marcus said, seeing how his wife was holding her

“Marcus, I think we need to go to the hospital. I don’t feelwell. Please, can you take me to Dr. Hili?” Valerie said, her face sweaty.
