The word "fiancee" was like a nuclear bomb that just exploded in Sophie's ears, she looked at Chris's face, his eyes were sharp, his limps was straight, which made his face look serious and you wouldn't dare to test him. As she was looking at him, he suddenly held her hands and pulled her towards him, he looked at eyes and smiled a bit then he turned to the reporters and said "Its better you leave before i call the security". One of the reporters acted like Chris said nothing and he asked "When are you getting married?". As chris heard the word "marriage" his gaze sharpened, he lips twitched as he tried to look for the reporter that asked that question but unluckily he couldn't see him because many people are there, he just pulled Sophie back in apartment and took the land line and called the security. It took only about 10min before everywhere went quiet, Chris stood up and checked if all the reporters have been cleared then he came back and sat on a couch, sophie was sitting on a chair opposite to him still looking embarrassed and confused, the room was silent before chris spoke.
They are gone. You can leave now; Chris said with a cold voice.
Mmmhmm; Sophie nodded as she straighten herself and started walking to the door.
Miss Sapphire!; Chris called, him calling Sophie's full name made her freeze and turn slowly.
Yes sir; she answered calmly showing no sign of fear anymore.
You forgot my ring; he said pointing at her hand.
Oh sorry; sophie quickly removed the ring and dropped it on a mini table beside his couch and turned to leave.
Miss Sapphire!; Chris called again, this time she was a bit shocked as she turned her face looked pale, her eyes were looking down. Chris walked up to her and stood about 30 inches from her looking straight at her.
Am sorry for misunderstanding your intentions earlier, i was just confused; Chris said sincerely which made sophie's heart feel at peace, all her body felt relaxed and she quietly took a sighed of relief.
No, no need to apologise. Anyone in your place will act the same way; Sophie replied humbly as she smiled.
Ok then, take care, Bye; he said and opened the door for her. His gaze followed her till she was out of sight.

Back at the hospital, Beatrix and Mr. Mark saw the news and they knew what happened to chris. As they were discussing about it, chris walked into the room with a small food container in his hand and dropped it by the bed side without any word.
Good morning father, how are you feeling?; Chris asked as he pulled a spare chair and sat on it.
Hmmm, i feel much better; Mr. Mark answered nodding his head.
I hope you have both eaten yesterday; Chris asked again but now looking at beatrix who was quiet like a statue.
Yes we did; Beatrix answered.
Where is Mr. Wong?; chris looked around as he asked.
Mmmm, he has a family too you know; Mr. Mark answered with a calm voice.
Ehem, Chris. Wasn't that sophie on the news with you and you called your fiancee?when?how?; Beatrix asked anxiously asked chris with a smile on her face.
Yea it is her but i just called her my fiancee to help her; Chris answered as his face slowly drained its colour.
Hmmm, and you want me to believe you?; Beatrix asked again but this time with a serious voice too.
I said its nothing so just forget it; Chris replied now getting annoyed.
Leave your brother alone, don't make him angry again; Mr Mark interrupted their conversation.
Ok fine but i have my eyes on you brother; Beatrix said making a gesture with her two first fingers meaning "I've got my eyes on you" as she smiled
Chris stayed there for a while before going to the office, by then Mr Wong already showed up at the hospital, so chris left everything in his hand.

I see the plan is going well, even faster than expected; a female voice with a cold tune to it spoke from a dark room.
Yes mother, am sure they will never see this coming, it will be a great surprise; another female voice answered with from the other end of the room.
Yes my dear, they will have to pay for what they did to us after your father died. The Marks don't deserve to be alive; the first female lady said as she walked slowly out of the shadows, it was Mrs. Maria John (Sophie's mother).
Yes i will not them live happily after they made us suffer; the other lady slowly walked into the light too, it was Sophie. She had a devilish smirk on her face as she flicked a light switch which showed a board with pictures of Chris, Beatrix and Mr. Mark.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
