We were brought to the private hospital owned by Denver's family. The doctors examined us. Sharmienne got unconscious after she found out about Carmienne. We didn't told her yet about that. Rash is unsure that Carmienne is with Jake.
I am inside Sharmienne's private room. I volunteered to looked after her. And I saw Denver here with baby Carmina in his arms. Denver who was taking good care of her, can't seem to ease his mood. His eyebrows are furrowed while looking at the woman. I can see that he's also worried about her.
It's been two days already but Sharmienne still didn't woke up. Her angelic face looks so peaceful. Wounds are visible on her arms and legs, she also has an eyebag below her eye. And her cheeks are turning purple. It looks like she was beaten before we hot out from the mansion.
And within two days of Sharmienne's being unconscious, Denver took care of Carmina, Carmienne's baby. As I stared at her, I can't believe that she isn't Jake's daughter. I'm curious who's the father of Carmina. She looks sweet and bubbly.
“Can I hold her?” I asked Denver who looks tired taking care of Carmina. He's been Carmina's guardian for now.
“I can manage,” he uttered then glanced at me. I rolled my eyes in him. “I won't let you hold this precious baby, you might let go of her. Right, Carmina?” He smiled at her.
“You just want to be selfish. You don't even want to give her to Matthew. He knew how to take care of Carmina.”
“Still...” He just shrugged.
I sighed as I stared at Sharmienne. “I hope Carmienne's still alive. We don't know who will take care of her baby.”
“We can help Sharmienne,” Denver suggested. “We know that she can't do this alone. Carmina's her niece, she'll be the legal guardian. As of now, the police are still searching for them. Mr. Ferrer even conducted a search mission.”
Based on the findings of the police, Jake's body isn't there, so he's still alive. Even Carmienne wasn't found too. There's a high chance that they got out together.
Kian was the most injured among us. He got stabbed on his stomach for six times, he was also shot and it was really egregious. A bullet was found just below his heart. He's still unconsciously after the doctors took out the bullets inside him.
Rash told me that Kian brought the files personally to them. Those files were important to The Falcon. He didn't tell me why though.
Liene and Lorecia were on the other room and they're taking rest after a long night. Daniel and Dash were guarding them. They don't deserve to experience this.
“Liene's a secret agent,” Denver uttered which made me gaped. “She stop studying to help Carmienne look for Jake. They wanted revenge.”
“Why would they do that?”
“She told us that Jake needs to pay for everything he did to Carmienne's family,” he continued. “He killed Carmienne's cousins on her father side. Unexpectedly, Carmienne fell in love with him.”
“Carmienne stopped their plan, but still Liene pursued it. She didn't stopped looking for Jake's secret. She can't keep seeing Jake roaming around as if he didn't do something tremendous.” Denver shrugged. “And now, Jake took Carmienne away and escaped.”
“I doubt they'll come back soon,” I mumbled. “Now's The Hawk doesn't have their leader anymore.”
“Yeah, Jake's knew that his gang will fall down,” he said. “Still, there's a chance that they'll plan something again.”
The door opened behind me. I stood up and was about to welcome them when my I eyed fixed on the man wearing a police uniform. He looks like in his early 5O's. I furrowed when I saw resemblance of him with the Ferrer's twins. I pursed my lips and went to Denver's side and didn't even greeted the old man.
“This is Ms. Golieza's files.” He put a folder on the table next to me. “We got it from the mansion. It says that the mansion was owned by her sister.”
“What will happen to her, sir?” Denver asked.
“The government will help her find a new house. It shows that she is one of the collateral damage, same as the others who got affected by the trouble of the two gangs.”
“Don't tell me you'll manipulate the case again?” I arched a brow to Mr. Ferrer. I still can't forget what he did to my father's case. He was injustice.
“Rielle..” Denver tried to stop me. I shoved his hand on my arm and stared Mr. Ferrer on his eyes. He's emotionless. His brown orbs didn't got stunned by my sudden outburst.
“No.. You were the one who fabricated my father's case, right? You showed that my mother was r*ped by him, when the truth is, he did not! How dare you?!”
“If you don't have other questions, I'll go—”
“No!” I hissed. My eyes immediately darted to the door when it opens again. There, I saw my mother with a basket full of fruits as she walks towards our direction. Her smile faded when she saw the old man in front of me.
“Mr. Ferrer.”
“Reniella.” Mr. Ferrer uttered under his breath. His eyes darted on me and to her before he sighed deeply. I glanced at my mother who casually put the basket on the table, near Sharmienne's bed. She then glanced at the unwanted visitor.
“Mom,” I called.
“Leave him to me, Rielle. Don't disturb your friend who's resting right now.” Mom told me before he averted her gaze to Denver. “Your brother is outside. He wants to talk to you.”
Denver nodded and he left us with Carmina on his arms. I darted my gaze to Mr. Ferrer who's still staring at my mom.
“Reniella, about our s—”
“We'll talk outside.” My mom firmly said. She walks out and Mr. Ferrer followed in an instant. My lips parted with what just happened.
I just sighed and sat on the sofa inside Sharmienne's room. She's still sleeping. I can't help but to feel pity for her. She sacrifice herself for her sister and bestfriend to be safe but it didn't go as what we planned.
That's why, I promise to myself that I will take care of her. After she did everything and helped us by being our ally, I want to do something to her. Just so she can live a very peaceful life. I doubt it can, but maybe a little, I can give her comfort by being with her.
When Denver came back, he was already with two guys who I think are younger than him. I remember one of the guy named Saint. He was with Selene Elaiza when I first saw him. He smiled at me which I smiled back. While the other guy was the younger version of Denver. He was curiously looking at me and then to Denver.
“Woah! You're a father now?” He said to Denver and chuckled.
“Shut up, Clyde!” Denver hissed at him.
“Saint..” I called. “What brought you here?”
“I just came with Clyde.” He shrugged.
“I'm Clyde Velasquez, miss. Denver's handsome brother.” Clyde winked at me.
“Rielle Rivera.”
“Wait, you're my brother's cr—”
“I said, shut up, Clyde!” Denver uttered firmly to his brother. “Just be quiet. I didn't let you in just to be noisy.”
I just shook my head. I bid goodbye to them when I decided to go back to my room. I saw Elijah on the sofa and he's sleeping while sitting. He looks uncomfortable because of how tall he is. I went near him with a smile as I stared at his face.
This man is so handsome. I can't deny that. I caressed his face which made me heard a moan from him. I bit my lips as I saw him slowly opened his eyes. And his green orbs met my blue ones.
“Rielle..”
“You can go back to your car. I just need to wait for the doctor to know the results of some tests they've conducted.” I said but he shook his head. He pulled me to sit on his lap that made me shriek. He smirk and hold my waist to made me sit firmly. My cheeks reddened when I realized our position.
“I'll wait,” he gently mumbled and leaned his face on my neck. He rested his head on my shoulder blade and I felt him planting soft kisses on it. He embraced me with both of his arms and hugged me closer to him. “I miss you, love.”
“E-elijah, your wounds.” I reminded him.
He still wasn't fully recovered from what happened on the beach house. He stayed with me for the last two days that I am in the hospital. The doctors told me that I can go home after they'll give the results of my tests.
I pulled him closer and hold his cheeks with both of my hands. He groaned when I pinched it harder. He didn't said anything though. I played with his face until it reddened. He looks so cute when his lips will pout a little. I give him a soft kiss but he ended up deepened it until we both moaned.
We just stopped when we heard few knocks on the door. I fixed myself and sat next to Elijah who is smirking at me. I just arch him a brow which he answered with a chuckle.
The doctor entered with a smile on her face. She looked at us. “I already have the results, Ms. Rivera. You don't have nothing to worry. You're perfectly fine. Just put ointments on your wounds and it will heal with continuous treatments.” She smiled after. “Take good care of yourself, okay?”
“Thank you, doc.” I smiled and looked at Elijah who's just caressing my waist.
“Before I forgot,” she uttered which got our attention. “I just want to congratulate you. You're three weeks pregnant, Ms Rivera.”
