Falling In Love : I Love You, Today And Forever Chapter 502
Advertisement
Just as Joshua had predicted, Amber had visited the hospital in hopes of meeting him. However, she had been extremely late in her arrival, five hours late, and by then, the couple had left the hospital.
The previous night's incident had made Amber sleep for a long time, even past the alarm she had set. By the time she woke up, it was already close to noon. Amber was already frustrated about getting up late, and the servants in the mansion only irked her more when they did not provide her with breakfast. All she got was a good scolding from the butler when she tried to create a scene. He also did not forget to remind her that she would be responsible for herself for the next two weeks.
Amber was livid at the treatment she was receiving from the mere maids and servants. However, she could not retaliate either. To begin with, the mansion was not hers, and if she was sit down and calculate all the savings she had, they would barely amount to half of the maid's salary. So, she was not even worthy of being a maid given the condition she was in. However, the arrogant woman could not digest this matter, her ego and selfishness had taken over her completely.
As she was already running late, Amber decided to eat on her way. Just the thought of spending money on food outside made her cry inside. Her hard-earned money was slowly reducing in number, and if this continued, she would be reduced to a pauper. 'I need to come up with a plan before I become penniless.' She thought as she approached the car that was given to her by the man who had taken her in, using her as a pawn in her plan.
However, unlike the previous time when the driver would be prepared for her, this time, the man was lazing around as he sang along to the song playing on the music player. Even on seeing the woman walk to him, he did not start the car, nor did he unlock the car door for her to get inside.

"What are doing?" Amber had already had enough of drama for a day, and all she wanted was to satisfy her growling stomach. "Get the car ready. We need to leave."
Even though the driver had heard her clearly, he feigned ignorance and continued to sign loudly, not giving her any face. Amber's nails dug into her palm in anger. "Did you not hear me? Open the door." She almost shouted, and her voice was loud enough to even attract the people walking on the streets outside. However, the driver did not give a damn about it as he had got strict orders not to entertain the woman's words. He just raised the volume and continued to enjoy his song.
"You bastard." Amber was now beyond furious, and she shouted at the top of her lungs. All her pent-up frustration, rage, and arrogance came out at once. However, there was nobody but the driver in front of her to entertain her tactics. She was merely a clown putting on a single-man show which nobody was interested in. Even the driver gave a blind eye to her, despising the woman all the more for her disgusting behavior.
Amber's shout did not affect anyone in the mansion. The driver too rolled the window, canceling all the noise from outside. Now, Amber did not know what to do. Time was ticking by, and she had to reach the hospital and speak to Joshua before her girlfriend stopped her again. All she could do was glare at the driver before she walked out of the mansion.
Time was less, and the money she had was even lesser. Booking a cab was not an option for her as she would soon be reduced to nothing if all her money got used up. So, the only way out was to use public transportation. However, to Amber's horror, she realized traveling via public transport was not as easy as taking a walk in the garden. It was the first time she was hopping on a bus, and the moment she did so, she was pushed inside by the woman behind her.

"Hey, watch out." She shouted. However, the woman just gave her a cold look before she took the only seat available. Amber's momentary loss in focus had also lost her the only seat available. She looked around her only to find the bus devoid of any empty seats. Even before she could voice out her complaints, more passengers board the bus, and she was pushed back until she was sandwiched between two women.
Amber did not even have the time to yell at them for their behavior as the bus had already started moving, and the sudden jerk made her lose her balance. If not for her holding for support handle immediately, Amber was sure she would have kissed the woman's butt in the front. Amber felt disgusted and horrible. However, she had no one to complain to. She knew she could not win over the women around her, and it would only tarnish the reputation she had built over the years. She had completely forgotten that she had no reputation, to begin with.
Finally, after a long battle of push and pull in the crowded bus, Amber reached the stop near the hospital. A loud rumble from her stomach reminded her of her hunger, and she looked around her for a perfect spot to dine. However, all she saw were restaurants that she could not afford, given her current predicament. Though their food was not that expensive, it was not cheap either.
All of a sudden, her eyes lit up when she remembered the canteen at the hospital. 'How could I forget the hospital? The canteen food must taste good as the hospital is one of the best in the country. I bet the price of the dishes is low too. I could save some bucks in the meanwhile.'
With a triumphant smile, she walked all the way to her hospital in her six inches heels, putting up with the pain that came by. By the time she reached the hospital, her feet were bruised, and Amber's eyes were red with tears. But it was not the end of her misery. As soon as the guards at the hospital entrance saw her, they stopped her immediately.
"What do you think you are doing?" Amber glared at the men. Her hunger and her anger from the day's humiliation were getting the best of her. So, she did not realize how rude and indecent she sounded, especially at a place like a hospital.
"Sorry, Miss. You are not allowed to enter the hospital." The man was extremely polite even though he had orders from the higher authorities to throw her out if she were to show her face again.
"What do you mean by that? Do you have any idea who I am? I could get you removed from your job? Get lost before I lose my patience." Her high-pitched screech made the guard close his eyes in dismay.
"Miss, please leave before we use force against you." The other guard stated. Although he tried to be polite, he did not conceal his dislike towards. Amber was just about to shout at him for his impudent behavior when his next words shocked her, rendering her utterly speechless. "Regal Medical Hospital has blacklisted you, and you are forbidden from entering in."

To succeed, Cairn must unite the kingdom and discover the motivation of his killer, using as many tries as it takes. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I exhausted pretty much every time loop story ever written and decided to write my own. You'll see a few similarities here between this story and some existing stories, at least initially. There's a lot of inspiration drawn from both MoL and Re:Zero, though in terms of pathos and darkness, this story leans more towards the latter. Be warned, it is something of a slow burn. The main character will grow and become powerful, but a theme of this story is that power comes slowly and often at great cost.
