Blake entered the cabin to pick Alister up only to see that the room was already empty and the nurse was cleaning it.
"Excuse me?? Where is the patient??"
He asked to the nurse. The nurse turned back to answer.
"Already discharged, sir."
"What? So early?? Who did it??"
Blake inquired. He wanted to discuss the terms of their plan with her but now the girl was nowhere to be found.
"Mr. Cardoso came to get her and they left like an hour or two ago."
The nurse informed. Blake narrowed his eyes.
"By Mr. Cardoso, you mean Ryan Del Cardoso??"
The nurse nodded, getting back on to her work, and Blake could not help but smile. She was already acting her ways to him. He thought and walked out of the hospital, impressed.

Meanwhile, Alister was bored sitting ideally on the L-shaped sofa for more than an hour now.
He had been gone to yet another meeting after dropping her off in his office. Since then he had not returned.
The assistant came to bring her some refreshments which she kindly denied. She did not even know why she was here, why he bought her here?
She was so pissed at Courtney. How could she ditch her sister just for a spa appointment from some rich hunk??
Minutes after denying the refreshment from the assistant, the same assistant again showed up but this time along with the refreshment which seemed more in quantity for one person, and even before she could deny, he declared that Mr.Cardoso ordered him to do so.
Therefore, there were no more comments. She just grunted in annoyance at the stupidity of this man.
She sulked back onto the sofa, not having anything to do. She was bored, the television had nothing interesting, plus she had no idea where her cellphone was either.
She wanted to be out of here. She wanted to go to home and rest after all the shenanigans. She could not even decide if it was worth it for those one million dollars??
Only then the door got opened and in there came, Ryan followed by his work assistant. She stood up gaining his attention.
For a moment, in between his meetings, he forgot that he had someone waiting for him in his office.
"I will check it out later. You are dismissed for now."
He said to his assistant and also informed him to cancel all the meetings for today to tomorrow. The assistant nodded in yes before leaving the office.
He strode towards her, removing his jacket and hanging it on the head of his moving chair.
"You did not eat??"
He interrogated eyeing the food. It was untouched and seemed cold.
"Why m I here??"
Alister cut in straight. She needed to know.
"Because I want you here."
His reply was so simple that made her boil in anger. This man was so full of himself.
"Can you stop behaving like this??"
"Behaving like what??"
"Behaving like this??"
Alister pointed out and moved backward as he kept moving forward, towards her. Her face reflected her being nervous which he was enjoying.
"Can...can you stop coming closer??"
Alister let out with her hands trying to gesture him in stopping.
"You always come closer to me even when I do not want you to...remember??"
Ryan sneered.
"That..that was different..."
Alister shuttered as she reached the end of her way, hitting the glass wall behind her making her trapped in between Ryan's figure and the glass wall.
"Why was it different?? Because you were declaring your love for me??"
Ryan smirked walking more closer, not stopping. Alister tried to look anywhere but him.
"I..uh..don't love you anymore..."
"Oh really?? You don't??"
Ryan implored right away as Alister shook her head in negative.
"You can't lie to yourself, darling."
Ryan chuckled as he stopped right before her, leaving only a threadlike distance between him and her.
"I..uh.I m not lying..."
Alister said as she did not like lying about the topic of love anymore. Maybe she went too far doing it?? But it was in the heat of the moment and she desperately wanted his attention that time...now that she had plenty, she wanted to come clear...at least about the loving thing...if not all.
"Of course you are..."
Ryan mumbled as he extended his right hand forward to trace her skin. She closed her eyes when his hand came in contact with her face.
Her lips parted trying hard not to make any sound...his touch..even when it was simple...it did things to her..it seemed so familiar too.
He was liking the way she was reacting to even the slightest knock of his touch. This girl...she intrigued him so much more when he was just a notch away from dismissing her presence from his life.
"You love me...Alister Flow..."
He whispered, tracing the skin of her cheek that was red by that time. His eyes kept going down to her red delictable lips but he was controlling himself...so hard...
She wanted to deny once again to his argument but she just could not bring herself up to do it.
He was so close to her...their bodies were practically pasted against each others as he was touching her, caresseing her face, his hot breathe fanning her hot face...she felt so bothered by his touch...by his presence...by their close proximity...
Ryan's forefinger traced down her skin, and his thumb rubbed against her bottom lips, parted ones...they were so soft and juicy...
He wanted to taste them again..he remembered how daring she was in stealing kiss from him in that restaurant..he wanted to do the same to her...
He could not bring himself to stop thinking about her...it was just not about how self lessly she protected him but something about her presence just felt so familiar...like they had known each other way before...
He just let go of anything and everything and pasted his lips to hers not caring how their mini session was being recorded by the employees outside of the glass wall...
