CHAPTER 3

Jared Dimitrou

Nobody had dared to walk out on me. Not a single person and yet this woman just escaped. I let her. I fucking let her left my sight. Right in front of me.

"Search for her. The woman that I just paid hospital bills for." I growled through the phone. Not a single woman has ever made me frustrated and shocked like her. She was different.

Anitta Raynott. You ran out on the wrong person, my dear.

Anitta Raynott

'She's coding! We need a crash cart in here now!' The doctors were running towards .... Oh god Rosie. No please let it not be Rosie.

It was indeed Rosie's room. She was lying on the bed, unconscious. I could hear the monitor beeping rapidly. No! No! No! Tears started to stream down my face. I could not breathe. I could not see anything as I crumpled to the floor. If I did not faint and was here with her, this would not happen.

'Ms. Raynott. We need to get your sister into surgery right away. Please sign the papers here.'

"Rosie, w-w-would she b-be o-okay?" I choked out my words. I do not know what to do if I lost her.

'We will try our best to make sure that she's okay Ms. Raynott. Now if you please sign the papers, we will prepare her for the surgery right away.' I raised my hand shakily trying to sign my name on a piece of paper. Rosie was my world and I could not lose her. Yet, I could not do anything but to helplessly see her being pushed to the surgery room.

Please just let Rosie be okay. Please, hear my prayers, mama.

Jared Dimitrou

'Sir, we have tracked her. She is currently at George Mason Hospital.'

"Is she fine? Why was she at another hospital when she was just admitted to this one? Check on her again." I roared through the phone. I needed to know if she was okay. That woman really got inside my brain after our first encounter.

"Right away, sir."

"Also, I need background checks on Anitta and her younger sister as soon as possible."

"I will, sir."

A few minutes later, I pulled up Anitta Reynott and Rosie Raynott's profiles. Anitta was the only caregiver of ... Rosie? For her whole life she had been shuffling through ten different foster homes until she turned 18. It said on her record that she would always go with her sister and never leave her alone. The reason? Rosie Raynott had heart problems.

My mind went back to when Anitta was trying to leave the room so desperately. She was trying to go to her sister. I let out a sigh of relief when I know it was not Anitta who was being admitted to the hospital. But ...

"Hey brother, who are you missing?" Marcel was crossing his hand, leaning against the door. Why was he here?

"None of your concern."

"Really? Or should I call Anitta Raynott and ask?"

"Touch her and you will die. How did you even know anyway? What brings you here?" God, this woman was getting on my nerves.

"Slow down. I did not say I would steal her from you although I know that she would definitely choose me over you. I was just joking. But seriously J, who is she?"

"No one special."

"Sure, whatever you say J. I was just coming over to say hello. Did not know that there is a stick up your ass today."
