Chapter Eighteen: The Lost Life

JISOO'S POV

When Rose had texted me, I wasn't sure if I was ready to face Jennie. I had turned her life into a living hell with my existence and I wasn't sure if we could repair the relationship between us anymore.

The leaked video had caused a lot of havoc but in the end, everything could be erased with money and power. The headlines of today would be the past tomorrow and lost business relations could be replaced with new ones but she was suffering the real consequences of this video.

Mina had filled me in on the cancellation of her scholarship and she was no longer a student after the disciplinary committee of the university had expelled her. I couldn't continue to employ her either with all the headlines hanging over our head.

Jennie was no longer a law school student so I couldn't justify keeping her around. I was worried about her and the future she looked ahead to face. The video was a direct violation of the confidentiality agreement she had signed and anyone in that video had the right to sue her for a breach in the agreement.

However, I was capable of shutting them all down and I was going to. When she woke up tomorrow, it would be like nothing had happened but I couldn't revoke the damages that the video had caused so far.

We had created this mess together and I was cleaning it up for her, for us. It was the least I could do when she had suffered by my side for months, agreeing to everything I had demanded from her. I was disgusted with myself.

I was no different from an abuser, I was messed up and I needed help. I knew but I couldn't keep my mind away from her. I had distanced myself from her to protect her from me but I couldn't stay away any longer. I needed to see her to make sure that she was okay.

When I pulled up in front of the building where Rose and Lisa were living, I knew this would probably be the last time I would see her. After all this I wasn't even sure if she would even want me to be around.

Taking a deep breath, I approached the doorman and told him I was here to meet Rose. I was led to a private elevator that brought me to the floor where the penthouse was located. When the doors opened and my eyes met hers, my heart tightened immediately.

Jennie looked pale and her eyes were red with tears. She had cried and my heart ached knowing the pain this wicked physical relationship had brought her. I couldn't stay by her side, she wouldn't let me after all this but a little part of me wanted a piece of her, a piece of her heart. I had fallen so deep for this woman in such a short time.

She took a step towards me but I realized she was bleeding. Coming to a stop she collapsed on the floor and her eyes closed into darkness.

"Jennie!" I screamed and ran over to her

Rose was trying to call 911. The gushing blood scared me and the fear of losing Jennie filled my mind.

"Please, don't leave me," I whispered like a prayer while the tears trailed down my cheeks. I needed Jennie in my life.

I needed Jennie's warmth against my body and I would do anything to stay by her side. I would beg her to take me back if that was what she wanted but most important of all I needed her alive. Rose's voice faded in the background and the only thing I could see, hear and feel was Jennie.

"They are on the way," Rose notified with tears in her eyes.

We were both so shook by the horrible scene in front of us and I couldn't thank her enough for being by Rose's side when I had failed to protect her.

The ambulance arrived shortly after and took her away immediately. Her condition wasn't good and I feared the worst. When I heard the sirens of the ambulance the fear of losing her solidified inside of me.
