The CEO’ s second choice novel Chapter 57

　　Elena

　　It’s dark…

　　Where am I?

　　Where is Sebastian?!

　　Wait, who is Sebastian?

　　Everything… Everything hurts so much. Why can’t I move? Was someone holding my hand? It feels so warm and familiar. “I miss you, petite pâquerette. Please come back to me.” Uhm… Who was that? Was that Sebastian? Why do I keep thinking of that name? I can’t open my eyes, why can’t I open my eyes?! They feel so heavy. I need to… Need to get up, I need to move! Maybe this person can help me, wait I can move my hand now and… and my eyes can open! I move my hand again and finally, my eyes start adjusting to the light. A pair of hazel eyes look at me with a shocked expression and immediately jump up and start kissing me and calling me Elena.

　　Elena? Was that my name? Who is this?

　　“Elena?” He asks again and I feel tears falling down my cheeks. I’m scared. I don’t know where I am or how I got here or who this man was! He pressed a button on the bedside table, then looked down at me with pained eyes. Who are you? I think but notice that I actually spoke in a gravelly voice and see his expression change again. Was he mad? Was he sad? “Why am I here? What happened?” I struggle to talk again because of my parched throat, but he moves closer to me and strokes my hair. “Shh, it’s okay, Elena. The doctor is on his way.” He says, trying to reassure me, but I don’t feel it working. “No… no… why am I here? Who are you?! I exclaim, feeling the pain coursing through my body. “It hurts… it hurts!” I cry out just as the door bursts open and hospital staff scramble in.
