The moment the car stopped in front of the hospital, Ariana's soul nearly left her body. All she wanted at this dying minute was for something to happen, so that Harry's driver, could turn this car around and she won't have to push through with this.
So that she won't have to push through with her lies, suddenly her head was blank and she couldn't recall anything that she has learned about Selina and Alexander so far, but she wasn't given a chance to tell Harry about it.
If anything, despite her scared form, while looking at Harry she could see that he won't take it lightly with her if she ruins this moment. If she did, maybe he would kill her too, just like he did with that guard.
The door was held open for her before she knew what was happening, she had been so lost in thought that she didn't know when they arrived at the hospital.
Thankfully, it was a private hospital so there weren't many eyes, yet, that didn't mean that people didn't stop to look at her, she looked like she was ready for a runway rather than being in the hospital.
"I see you are getting famous already?" Harry teased her, watching the way people stopped to look at her, as if they could recall that she's Selina White, the Ex-model to win the world beauty pageantry.
"N..no, I'm not the one they are looking at." Ariana said, looking away from the stars that started to make her uncomfortable. She wasn't the social media type, and she could feel everyone's stares burning a hole through her head.
"It's because you are beautiful, Ariana, you need to learn how to come out of your shell." Harry complimented her, which made Ariana's heart skip a bit.
He can compliment a woman?
"T..thank you." She nearly stuttered, but organized herself immediately before she followed Harry, who passed through the back gate, rather than the main door where everyone had been anticipating that they would be using.
As the both of them entered the hospital, they had no idea that amidst everyone that was looking at them. An all too familiar eyes had been following them, right from the very moment they left Alexander's penthouse, right to the very moment they entered the private hospital.
Nathan.
He smiled from where he sat inside his car, already having an idea of what was going on. Alexander was on no damn fucking business trip, he's in the hospital and his sneaky secretary, Harry, had been keeping quiet about it.
He has other ideas about who else that might know about Alexander being in the hospital, his father?
No!
As much as Alexander was his fathers son, the both have never had a proper father and son type of bond, Alexander hates his father. The only person who he knew can pull something off like this, without anyone knowing was his grandfather.
Was this the reason why he took offense this morning, when Dante asked him to call his favourite son to help him find his stupid dog?
Without wasting any time, he picked his phone up to call his big brother, on the second ring, Dante picked up.
"What?" Dante asked angrily, which made Nathan roll his eyes as if he wasn't the one that assigned him the task of finding where Alexander is, after suspecting that something fishy was playing right in front of their eyes.
Nathan could hear Nina's cries over the phone, which made him know that Dante was up to his bad habits again. He was beating his wife up for no damn reasons these past few days. He should just get rid of her and save everyone the stress of having to hear the woman's cries every night.
"Hey, brother. I think i might have an idea about where our other brother has been hiding all this while?" Nathan said, snickering at the thought of what Dante would do once he gets here too.

"Are you sure about this? She's not ready, sir." Caleb said to Harry trying to change his mind, after meeting them halfway to them arriving at Alexander's private ward.
"Move aside." Harry ordered.
Ofcourse, he knew why Caleb was worried about this going sideways, he made him know last night that the doctor said that Alexander might be suffering from temporary memory loss.
So, he might not be able to recognize everyone, which had Harry take the bull by the horn, to try to utilize this opportunity to force the fake Selina back in his life. Who knows?
Just like he has no memory of the accident, he won't take offence seeing her right now, moreover, he won't be planning on killing her, not after demanding for her the moment he wakes up.
He couldn't forgotten Selina.
But what about the others?
His father?
Grandfather?
His brothers too?
Does he still remember that he's not on good terms with any of them?
Did he know his very own identity?
Harry was curious, but whichever problem it is, he will help him through everything.
"Sir?"
Caleb called for his attention again, as all Ariana did was to keep quiet about the whole situation. Harry didn't say anything about Alexander being in the hospital, although she was really curious to know why he's in the hospital.
She didn't make any statement but hoped that Caleb would be able to convince Harry out of his craziness? She was already feeling lightheaded.
How about I pass out?
Ariana thought.
That was the only solution she can come up with to stop this madness. But would it end with her fainting, the circle will still continue as long as Harry still had his mind made up that she's going to meet Alexander.
"Did you already inform the old man about him?" Harry asked Caleb, about informing his grandfather about Alexander, switching the conversation to something else.
"I just did moments ago, you know he won't take it lightly when he sees her." Caleb said, earning a questioning look from Ariana.
Who won't take it lightly with her?
Who exactly is Alexander?
What power does he have for everyone to be so tense at the mention of his name?
Ariana needed answers!
"That won't be a problem once i clear the misunderstanding." Harry said, before turning to face an eavesdropping Ariana. "Let's go."
The soft clicking of her heels was loud to her ears, step by step she got closer to her destination.
"Do it, Ariana!"
"Run away!"
"Pass out!"
"After this, you won't be able to leave anymore until the contract is over."
She was lost in thought until Harry held the door open for her to come in, with her heart in her hand, all Ariana saw firstly was the empty hospital bed, before she felt a figure standing near the window.
The sun was coming through the window, so she didn't exactly see who it was, but her first observation from the back of the tall man was that he was no old man.
Point one- passed!
But she couldn't entirely confirm that with just seeing his back only.
"Wishing you well in your quick recovery, sir." Harry said, making their presence known.
It all happened so fast.
Slowly, Ariana watched the man turn around, and the moment their eyes met and she saw his face. The young lady felt goosebumps travel her entire frame, at the sight of the striking handsome Greek god standing a few feet away from her.
Harry has lied!
He's so handsomeeeeeee!
