William's car disappeared in the dark and Wish was left alone, standing with no answers. It was her first time seeing William act like that and lashing out on her. And the pills he took made her even more worried and scared. What was he really going through?
At the far corner, Caleb stood beside the cars. When Wish left him, he was about to enter the venue but William looked like he was upset so he decided to follow them. He also saw their small quarrel and William taking the pills.
He carefully hid under the shadows when his car passed. Then made his way to Wish. She looked dazed in her thoughts. " Hey Wish..."
She looked up immediately hearing Caleb's voice. " You're here.."
" You can leave your car here. I will drop you off." he pulled her away from the spot. Her state right now was bad and she might not get back safe. " W-wait...im fine." she tried to stop but he wouldnt. " Just come with me."
" I said i can go by myself...." she said once they were inside his car, " You shouldnt waste your time."
" I need to tell you about William."
This made her froze on the spot. So, Caleb saw everything that happened.
" About his illness." he continued while Wish stared ahead, listening. " He was mentally unstable after his mother passed away. So, he had been taking medications for almost 6 years. But seems like he is taking it again."
So, it was due to his mother's passing away. She should have thought about it.
" Something must have triggered it." Caleb said with deep thoughts.
" Triggered?"
" Yeah....when you stop taking medications for a while, it can get triggered again if your mental state is unstable."
She gave a worried look thinking about any possibility what could have triggered it. This made her realise, she really didnt know William. " Caleb...."
He looked to her side. ".....what can i do to make him feel better?"
Caleb clenched his fist but loosened it immediately. He was her fiance after all. Why was he being upset over it. But deep down, he couldnt help feeling sad, no matter how much he tried to ignore it.

William woke up feeling heavy as the sunlight hit his face. Yesterday night, he went into a deep sleep right after he closed his eyes. This must be the pills effect. Anyway, he was thankful because without it he would have hundreds of thoughts haunting him at night.
He yawned while climbing down the stairs, ready to get some breakfast.
" Master," one of his butler came his way and bowed, " The future daughter-in-law, Miss.lennon has visited you." and when he said that Wish popped from behind, smiling nervously.
"What makes you come here?" William asked surprised and a little happy. He wouldnt show it though.
She raised a big lunch box, indicating she had prepared him breakfast. They reached the huge dining hall, as William carefully unboxed the food made by Wish. There were many varieties of food, making him feel something he had never felt.
" I know you have the best chefs that could easily make better foods..." she said nervously, " but i still tried my best."
" No...." he gave a small smile, " I like it." he carefully picked the egg rolls and ate it. Wish looked at him expectantly. Not that it was some great food, but it still made her nervous. Why was she so nervous today....it was just food.
He could instantly feel the love from the egg rolls. It was not the best egg in the world or a unique egg, it was just an egg. Yet, it still tasted a lot better. It was made with love after all. In the next few minutes, he finished all the food with content.
Wish was really glad that William enjoyed the food that she made. She was being nervous in the morning for no reason at all. " Well, Ill get going then."
" Thanks...." he said avoiding eye contact, " Anyways, you can stay here for sometime."
She gave him a small smile. It was a good thing that he was looking a lot better than yesterday. " I wont be able to...i have somewhere to be."
" Oh..." he scratched his head a little disappointed and looked at her back, leaving the dining hall.

"Lets see what you have been hiding..." Lucas whispered to himself, looking at the building of Mary hotels. He fixed his cap and entered, directly heading to the reception.
At first, the receptionist lady judged him properly and spoke, " Im sorry to tell you sir but we arent taking in any guests."
" I wonder why so..." he tilted his head, making the lady raise her brows. " but thats not why i came here. I came to meet the owner of the hotel.."
" You know its not easy to meet an owner without an appointment right?"
" I came here about two weeks before to click pictures of the suite room." he raised the camera, " do you remember?" the lady didnt say anything, observing him. " They havent paid me back, unfortunately." Lucas lied right to her face, " If you do not believe, heres the proof." he showed his phone with the messages exchanged. Seems like Lisa had given a fake number saying it was her friends. There was no reply from them.
The lady stared at the messages with a firm face. They must have been trained well. " Im pretty sure, we have paid you already. We dont delay with payment, sir."
Lucas nodded putting his phone away, " I still want to meet the owner."
" Sir, stop making unnecessary fuss."
" Is Melissa Lennon somehow.....related with the owner?" he asked without wasting another second.
The lady snapped her fingers and two bulky guys in suit grabbed both of his arms, " Hey, hey....i just asked a simple question."
" Take him away."
" You know you're making this obvious right?" he said struggling in their holds.
"Mind your words, sir." she seemed more upset now. Lucas only smirked back as someone entered the hotel entrance. The lady snapped her head quickly.
" What is happening here?" Wish said coming to the reception, shocked, " Why are they holding that guy?" she asked to the lady, acting like she didnt know Lucas.
" O-oh well, he was causing trouble." the lady quickly said, " What brings you here, maam? We dont have any rooms available."
Wish leaned closer, " I want to meet Rheanna. She is here right?"
The lady observed Wish again, " Rheanna hasnt mentioned about any appointments."
Wish pulled out the card of Mary hotels and gave it to her. The card was only for clients, as a proof. The lady nodded dialling in the telephone.
The card she had stolen from William had once again come useful. She turned around to see Lucas still struggling under the guys hold. After a few minutes, Rheanna arrived at the lobby. Once she saw Wish, her eyes went wide, " Y-you...?"
Wish quickly stepped infront of her, whispering in her ears. " Keep it down or should i say that you keep prostitutes infront of that guy?"
Rheanna noticed the guy with cap, tapping his jacket as the guards let him go. He definitely looked unaware about the hotel's business.
" Al-alright....what is it you wanna talk about?"
" Not here..." Wish said looking at the corridor, " There."
