Kale knew that something was wrong when she said those words. It doesn't sound right at all. How did it suddenly become like that? He's meant to call her today since he got his phone back after he lost it. But she called and it wasn't what he expected to hear. He called Nate who answered right away.

"Dude, are you engaged to Cathy?" Nate asked.

​​

"What? No, why?"

"It's all over her post. Check it."

"I don't have time for that. Go to Tina. Something is not right! Please, I'm begging you."

"Yes, we just arrived at her house," Nate said and he stopped.

"Good."

"Fuck," Nate mumbled. "Something shattered upstairs. We are going to check it." Nate hung up.

 Kale froze. Christina is meant to kill herself with her words. He looked around to search for Cathy. But he checked her posts first and he was tagged with the ring that she saw from his pocket. His eyes flared. Christina mistook it. He didn't know how she saw it but there is a post from two days ago.

"Kale! Let's go hit the bar." She said. Kale approached her and grabbed her arm.

"Delete this!" He showed her the thing she posted. "Everything!" He gritted his teeth.

"What's wrong? It's fake…"

"You knew well that someone would get hurt! You knew that it was her!"

 Cathy gritted her teeth and pulled her arm.

"Yes! I did it to hurt her." Cathy said. "Kale, you weren't in my position at that time."

"It's not my fault that you were forced to fuck Joey! It's not Christina's fault too. She's innocent here and you don't have the right to hurt her because of what her brother did to you!" Kale wanted to strangle Cathy at that moment. All he could see is black. "Delete it now!" Kale growled at her. Cathy never saw him like that. He immediately walked away from his room as he called someone. "Get me the first-class flight to California San Francisco, right now." 

 Cathy's body is shaking as she watches Kale throw a few things and curse. She didn't expect that it would be like this. Cathy found out the last two weeks that it's Christina, Joey's sister is the one that he's fucking and going to marry. So, as a little revenge, she took a photo of the ring and she took selfies with him to post it. She planned it well and sent a friend request to her.

 She also posted Kale's photos while he's sleeping and she lay beside him. She wanted Christina to feel how to be a slut and Kale is hers. In many women in the world, why would it be her? The blood of the man that ruined her back then. But Kale's word hit her. She is indeed like what Joey did. Not all of it but she likes a few of it.

"Kale, I'm sorry," Cathy said. Kale took his bag and approached her.

"If she's dead, would your sorry bring back everything you destroy?" Kale's eyes are burning and tears are near to fall. "I won't ever forgive you if something happened to her and my baby."

 Cathy covered her mouth as Kale left his hotel suite. What has she done?

<><><><>

 Nate broke the doorknob and found her lying on the floor with broken pieces of mirror.

"Ready the car!" Nate screamed. Margarita turned on the lights and Kelsie approached Christina. Her palm is bleeding and she is holding broken glass.

"Christina," Kelsie tried to wake her up.

"She didn't cut herself?" Nate asked as he searched for something to wrap her bleeding palm.

"No. I think she fainted from dehydration." Kelsie removed the glass from her hand and Nate carefully lifted her from the broken mirror.

 Kelsie followed as she grabbed her jacket from the edge of the bed. They take her to the hospital to the ER. Kelsie answered Kale's call from Nate as she watched Margarita freaking out.

"Nate, is she okay?" Kale asked. "I'm on my way there."

"Kale, it's Kelsie. We are in the hospital. She fainted."

"Did she do anything stupid?"

"She breaks the mirror, just bring your ass here!" Kelsie said, trying to calm herself. Kale hung up and she approached Margarita and comforted her as they took Christina to ER. The doctors checked her and they just watched it.

 Kelsie pulled Margarita away from the sighed and made her calm.

"How about her father? Can you call him?"

 Margarita nodded as she pulled her phone. It's ringing and he's not answering. She knew that he's sleeping with someone. Both of them do that as an open marriage. She wasn't a nagging wife but this time it's his daughter's life. She kept calling and calling until he finally answered.

"Something happened?" Wallace asked.

"Yes, it's Tina." Margarita breaks into tears.

"Where are you?"

 Margarita breathed.

"Where are you?"

"In the hospital." After she answered, Wallace, hung up.

 Kelsie knows that Wallace is always not home. If not in business, he would go somewhere to find something to increase the stocks which is sleeping with other woman. Christina will be left alone in the house if Margarita decides to visit friends. She will be imprisoned there and afraid that someone from the people where her father sold her off, will find her and see her as alive. She's not safe anywhere, but Nate told her that Christina and her father are under the Protection Program of the Dragon Empire.

 Now, seeing this is heartbreaking. After she saw the posts of Cathy with Kale, announcing that they are engaged. Kelsie took out Kale's necklace from her pocket. That time that Christina gave it to her, she knew well that something is not right. She looked thinner than before. Her eyes are tired and red from crying. Her lips are dry and have cracks from dehydration.

"Would Kale do it?" Kelsie asked Nate. Nate shook his head and hugged her.

"Kale is worried," Nate mumbled. "I think Cathy did that for revenge."

 Kelsie exhaled feeling depressed from what happened.

"Revenge ruined someone's life, Nate. If she didn't faint and proceed on what she's thinking, it'll be too late."

"I don't think that she's going to kill herself." Nate gently pushed Kelsie. "Let's wait until she wakes up."

 They looked at Margarita standing and staring at the bed as the doctors checked up on her. Christina looked so small in that bed. She covered her mouth. Kelsie approached her and hugged her.

"I should've left the house and just checked on her. I know that she's sad… but, I shouldn't leave the house." Margarita cried. Kelsie gently strokes her back.

 She heard from Christina about her family and Kale. If Christina thought that it's Kale's revenge on her family, then it'll break her. After those thoughtless mumbled at the bed while they are making love, Kelsie knew that they both love each other and Kale showed it to her. Kale showed to them that he loves Christina too without saying it.

 The doctor approached them and he said that she's dehydrated and they need to test her blood. So, they nodded and let them take tests on her and also wrapped her wound on her palm. They waited there until she was moved to the private room.

 Wallace came in crumpled clothes and he immediately went to the bed and reached for her hand that had a bandage. Nate and Kelsie stood from their seats.

"What happened?"

"She fainted after she broke the mirror," Margarita said and he glared at Nate and Kelsie.

"What are they doing here?"

"They are the ones who saved her. Stop pointing fingers, Wallace! You weren't there when your daughter was lonely!"

"It's because of that man." He shouted.

"Shh, let's talk outside. Your daughter is sleeping." Margarita tried hard to remain calm. Wallace kissed her daughter's forehead and he followed his wife outside.

 Nate exhaled and sat down on the sofa. Kelsie looked at her friend's pale face.

"Nate, can you go home and check, Cesar?" Kelsie asked. Nate took out his phone and checked the house. He showed her the dog who was on the doorstep waiting for them.

"He's safe."

"I know but, I don't want him to be alone," Kelsie said. Nate shook his head.

"I don't want to leave you here. Cesar will be fine."

"But where is Kale?" She asked.

"He's in Chicago." He answered. "There's a problem, so he had to stay here."

 Kelsie exhaled and they waited patiently. In a few minutes, Wallace came and he bowed his head.

"Thank you, for helping my daughter."

"It's nothing," Kelsie said. "But Kale is on his way. I hope that you'll let him explain. There's a little misunderstanding."

 Wallace ignored what Kelsie said and Nate reached her hand and kissed it. Margarita looked at them as she pressed her lips to smile. She mouthed them her thank you.

"We are leaving," Nate said. "We'll prepare something for her to eat. Do you want to go with us, Rita?"

"Yes,"

 Kelsie looked at Christina for a while and they left the room with Margarita.

"We will be back," Kelsie said. "I think she needed to eat some porridge. I will prepare one and you could bring a heater."

"We will."

 The doctor came and he approached them.

"Doctor,"

"Call me if she wakes, we also need her urine for a test."

"Yes, doc." Margarita nodded.
