Chapter 84
I’m afraid, baby… I don’t know what should I do. I’m not confident I will be able to make it and if that happens, I need you to understand.
You don’t need to say sorry for all the things you’ve done, I’m thankful for that, in fact. I thought that I won’t be able to find someone else I care for deeply other than Brylle, yet, here we are. Here I am, writing a letter to one of the most amazing men I’ve ever met.
You’re not perfect, yes, I know that. Theirs is no perfect human being. All of us have flaws and I know that you accepted that.
I we’ll ever meet at our next life, I wish that we’ll be in the same ending. But it will not end up with a sad ending. We will be having our happy ending. I want you to not feel guilty after doing such things to me. I’m not the girl who likes being in the dark. I want you to be honest.
I understand all you have done so don’t feel guilty.
What I want is for us to talk about it. You shouldn’t run. It’s alright to have a conversation about it.
— That’s all for now. I want you baby to go to your father and talk to him. He’ll tell you the next part of my letter.
I know that you have no intention of talking to him because of Diego. But please, do it for me…
I hope you won’t get to read this.
I won’t be able to tell you this in person but I LOVE YOU…

I closed my eyes as I crumpled the paper.
I treated her badly before she leaves and I think that’s her reason… And I’m really guilty about it.
Even after her disappearance, I’m still blaming myself for it.
I love her so much but I became a coward.
I felt so scared that it comes to the fact that I can’t look straight at her eyes. I can’t even speak with her.
Scared that I might lose her.
Damn it.
I stood up and punched the wall.
I’m such an idiot…
” I’m sorry Nass… I-I’m sorry” I cried. I cried like a baby.
My chests feel heavy…
I clutched the paper, where Nassandra’s remaining last words are located, to my chest.

I wiped the tears on my face, stood up straight, and came down to the living room.
” I’m going to—” I stopped talking when I saw that some of them are crying, some are staring at Nass’ letter for them.
” What is it Kei?” I looked at Nic whose fist is clenched tightly while the other hand is holding a paper.
” I’m going to France,” they all looked at each other.
” You’re talking to Tito Andre?” I nodded at Devon.
I slightly smiled at them.
” Gotta go…” It’s like they didn’t hear what I said as they returned their attention to Nassandra’s letter to each one of them.
My car is already parked at the front door. I’m heading straight to the airport to go ride our private jet.
Dad returned to France a few weeks ago.
He was happy when I told him about Kayden. He insists on going here but we can’t talk to him right now…
Even I can’t dismiss the thought that I have a younger brother.
That means my father cheated on my mother…
I don’t want to go but Nass wants me to.
Zeke’s POV
I speedily drove my car.
It’s been 2 months since we bomb Arkaine Estate with Maximo inside but I just read Nassandra’s letter just now.
” F*ck!” I swerved the car to the left because there was a truck in front of me.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
I heard the truck’s honking and the sound of my car clashing to a tree.
” Shit.” I held my head and noticed that I have an injury.
I cursed a dozen times before restarting my engine and driving in the direction of my hospital.
I parked the car and opened the door.
People looked at me when I got outside.
I signaled at the guard I saw.
” What is it, sir?” I pointed at the car and said:
” Throw it away.” At the same time, giving him the keys of the car.
The guard froze in his spot so I entered the building.
I went directly to the nurses’ area and the nurse in there widened his eyes.
” Call Dr. Mendoza.” I coldly said to the nurse. She immediately nodded and takes the telephone with trembling hands.
” Ma’am, you can’t work in here anymore. I nearly got caught last time I allowed you to clean… If you want, I know someone who knows a job offering in a restaurant,” I turned to a nurse who is talking to a woman.
The woman got her back faced on me so I can only see her short hair.
” And ma’am, you need to pay your bill last time. I don’t want to be scolded, I’m sorry.”
The woman stayed silent and clutched the eco bag she’s holding.
I sighed.
I approached the two.
Kei’s mansion could use a maid especially the other one resigned because she’s working on an agency and because the male maid is already dead.
The one with the Ema name is the only one remaining and she need help in cleaning the mansion.
” Hey. Are you finding a job?” The woman froze at what I asked.
” S-Sir. Uhmm, I’m so sorry. Were we too loud?” I shook my head at the nurse.
” It’s okay. Go back to your work. I’ll handle this.” He nodded and quickly walked away.
My gaze returned to the woman, but she’s already far away from me and was about to go into the elevator.
My eyebrows furrowed.
Is she running away from me?
” Hey!” I followed her, and when I got close to her, she slightly looked at me from her shoulder.
I stopped walking…
And the world seemed to stopped moving.
” Nass…?” I repeatedly blinked and when I saw her ran to the fire exit, I immediately chased her.
She was about to climb the stairs but I held her wrist.
She tried to pull her hand back but I tightly gripped it.
” Nass!” I faced her to me and I can’t believe who is right before my eyes.
She has a scar on her lips, but other than that and her short hair, nothing changes.
I may look like an owl right now.
I held her chin and make her look up at me.
” W-Why are you here?” She asked.
” What? Did you forgot that I’m the owner of this hospital?” Realization hit her as she closed her eyes.
