The moment Mariah entered the ambulance, she sensed that something was not right as she saw three men wearing black masks sitting inside. She tried to make a run but just before Mariah reached at the front of the hospital, one of the men ran after her and grabbed her. He placed a handkerchief om her mouth while Mariah tried to break through his strong grip.But she failed as the chloroform had already done its work and she fainted. They carried Mariah in a rush into the ambulance before anyone saw but soon they realized that Adam’s bodyguards were following them.When the kidnappers saw them, the took out their guns, one pointed the gun towards Mariah’s head to threaten them and others pointed their guns towards the bodyguards. Adam’s bodyguard put their hands in the air as they had been ordered not to hurt or let anybody hurt the doctor. The ambulance vanished into thin air in very short time. Adam’s bodyguards immediately rushed towards their cars and followed the ambulance. One of

Just as Adam thought his heart was going to explode while Mariah tied her white coat around his arm, Pete and Mason arrived at the spot.“They were sent by Ariak. One of them got away Boss. He’s trying to trace Keith to free him” Pete spoke still catching his breath from all the running.“Ariak can’t keep hiding for long. We’ll get back at him during his meeting with Ivan. He’ll pay for everything he did today,” Adam replies. Mariah just stands there listening to them as she doesn’t have much of a choice. She is still trying to process everything that has happened today so she doesn’t utter a word and keeps looking down at the floor.Mason notice the blood covered cloth around Adams arm and Mariah’s bruises present all over her face.“Did you get yourself shot again Adam? We need to get you to the hospital right now. You’re previous wounds haven’t even healed yet and Dr.Mariah is hurt as well,” Mason insists on going to the hospital as he thinks their wounds are not the kind to be tre

Mariah woke up with a dizzy head. She had trouble sleeping in a new place and she was not used to big rooms. Mariah’s psychiatric friend once told her that bigger spaces make you feel small and tiny and you feel more lonely, guess she was right. Mariah felt every bit of it. She was too afraid to step outside the door that someone might think of her as an intruder and shoot her right there and then but she didn’t know that Adam had already ordered everyone not to hurt her and to give her everything she asks for instantly. Adam knew that it would take some time for her to adjust in this new environment but he was relieved as he thought that Pete would be able to make her comfortable so he told him to show this place around. Pete’s soft smile makes him charming and less like a mafia man. Mariah heard the knock on the door and suddenly became alert. She saw the maid and let out a sigh of relief. “I’m sorry, Madam, did I wake you up?” Mrs. Sally asked when she saw Mariah suddenly ste

Mariah takes a deep breath and then she lies, because sometimes lying is easier than explaining the truth. So she goes on and lies to her friend she endears the most but she has no choice left.“It’s about Pete. His mother… she’s sick. She needs me right now and I want to be there for her and for Pete, it’s the least I can do for them,” Mariah speaks knowing very well that she has broken her promise. She had promised Blaire to never ever hide anything from her, to tell her everything, but she’s doing all this to protect her and even if she doesn’t want to lie, she still needs to for Blaire’s sake.“When will you be coming back?” Blaire and Mariah just shakes her head.“I don’t know, Blaire. I don’t know it yet,” Mariah replies.“Do you want me come with you? Is her condition that serious?” Blaire asks because she doesn’t want to leave her best friend to go through this time alone. She wants to be there for Mariah like she has been by her side since day one, but right now Blaire’s w

Adam leaves early in the morning with Mason as soon as he told him that there have been some sort of dealing going on in one of hotels they own. Adam had trouble sleeping all night so it wasn’t really difficult for him to leave this early. Pete asks if they need him there, but Adam tells him to stay at the mansion and to look after Mariah. Adam takes Mason and Adelmo with him so they can deal with whatever is going on at the hotel.Mariah wakes up late as she had an amazing sleep because of the scented candles. She ate breakfast with Pete that Mrs.Sally made for them and then Pete excused himself as he had some training to do with other bodyguards. Mariah asked him about Adam and Mason to which he replied that they had an urgent meeting so they left early. Mariah thinks it’s good that he won’t bump into Adam today as yesterday her heart couldn’t handle the close proximity between them.He told Mariah that she could visit them whenever she wants as they’re just next door which made her
