Working in Sky Corporation as Bill’s secretary, Sharon had the biggest compensation among the other secretaries in the company and even in the other companies. So, she considered herself lucky to get into her position even if it meant serving the most domineering boss, Bill Sky.
“Please give a chance to live. I have a son. My son needs me.” Sharon added trembling and sobbing when she saw Bill was staring at her without any emotion on his face. His look was not angry, but he was not happy as well. He was like contemplating on what could be her best punishment.
Suddenly, Bill squinted and his eyebrows furrowed. He took off his leg from Sharon in one snapped and Sharon was hardly pushed to the ground.
“You already missed your chance.” Bill said with a mocking smile while crossing his arms up his chest.
After hearing it, Sharon trembled with fright. The glint of hope in her eyes instantly vanished. She knew exactly her boss didn’t give any second chances, but still she tried to persuade him with a small drop of hope that he could forgive her.
Bearing a powerful aura, Bill strode his way out without giving Sharon any glance, but he suddenly stopped in the middle.
“Kill her!” His ruthless voice echoed in the room like thunder, then he went straight out elegantly like nothing happened leaving Sharon awfully shocked.
Back to Capital Z Medical Hospital.
“Hi, May I know who brought me here?” Backed to her vigor, Arabella asked the hospital information. She didn’t want to leave the hospital without knowing who’s her great savior.
“I’m sorry ma’am, but there’s no information about what you’re asking in our record.” With a puzzled face, the staff replied. It’s impossible that they don’t have any record with one of their patients.
Upon hearing it, Arabella was quite disappointed. She just wanted to find out who brought her there so she could express her gratitude to the person. Too bad, she could not do it as there were no any records of the person.
“There you are.” A man’s voice came out from behind her.
Arabella instantly turned around to see the owner of the familiar voice.
“You are here?” It baffled her to see Jayson in the hospital.
“Why not?” Jayson smiled at her. At this time, his handsome face didn’t look like exhausted, unlike the last time she had met him. He looked fresh and lax.
“How did you know?” Arabella furrowed her brows in confusion.
“How did I know?” Jayson just repeated her question with a smile then walked closer to her. “I know because I brought you here.” He declared with confidence.
Hearing Jayson, Arabella was stunned. It was Jayson, who saved her? Her eyes widened in disbelief.
“I know you want to thank me, but just save it. For now, let me drive you home.” Jayson said when he saw Arabella was rooted in her spot and couldn’t even say anything due to what she just heard.
“But how? How did you….” Puzzled Arabella uttered, but she was cut.
“Come on. You don’t want us to stand here for a long time. I will explain everything inside the car.” Jayson blinked at her and he quickly got her bag and strode ahead, leaving her with no choice to follow him.
When they were inside Jayson’s car, Arabella was silent. Back in the hospital, she was very eager to know who brought her there now that Jayson had claimed it, why she felt so awkward? Why can’t she even say thank you?
“Do you have something to say?” To broke the silence, Jayson calmly asked the girl who was sitting in the passenger seat and was obviously lost in her thoughts.
“How did you save me?” Arabella couldn’t withstand her curiosity. If Jayson was really her savior, she would definitely thank him everyday for risking his life for her.
“I happened to be in the bank that morning. I saw you so I followed you. When I sensed that there’s something bad would happen, I called up for back-up and thanks God! I rescued you just in time.” Jayson replied with a proud voice and with a gentle smile.
Upon hearing his explanation, Arabella had felt very guilty for doubting Jayson. How dare her to doubt her savior? If not for him, then maybe she was already dead right now.
“Thank you, Jayson. Thank you for saving me.” With still a guilty look and teary eyes, she uttered.
Jayson stopped the car on the road side. He then took off his seatbelt and gently lifted Arabella’s chin to face him. He held her delicate face and wiped her tears that were starting to assemble in her eyes with his two thumbs.
“Shhhh…You know I can do anything for you. I don’t mind giving my life to the one I love the most.” He divulged sincerely. His eyes were full of love for her.
Hearing the confession of Jayson, her heart froze. What happened to her? Why can’t he love Jayson back? He was always good for her and he was willing to risk everything for her.
“Should I don't deserve a hug for what I have done?” Seeing Arabella was stuck in her thoughts, Jayson vigorously said to catch her attention.
Though, Arabella felt awkward, but she could not say no to her savior at the moment. After all it was just a hug. No big deal!
