Kevin pushes the door open. âIâm the doctor-in-charge and am here to examine...â
He swallows back his remaining words when he sees Sunny lying on the patientâs bed.
âWhat a coincidence. Itâs you.â
Sunny is speechless too. âYeah...The world is a small place.â Ever since the incident last time, this is their first time meeting each other. However, there is an indescribable awkward atmosphere surrounding them.
âKevin, this is what you want me to...â
Troy doesnât finish his sentence but Kevin understands what he meant. âYes.â
Sunny doesnât know the language exchanged between them, but she is clear about one thing. If Troy Viktor is here, itâs most likely because of the baby in her stomach, so she just keep her mouth shut.
âOkay. Then, you should go down and get the results. Iâll take care of her.â
Even though Kevin knows that Troy is gay, but he still has an unsettling feeling inside. He wants to sit here and watch over her.
Sunny also speaks her mind. âGo and get your results. If itâs fine, itâs not too late to come back up here.â
Kevin still doesnât know about the scene where Sunny discovers that Troy and Baron are dating. He hesitates when she says so. âYou...â
Sunny shakes her head. âGo. Else I wonât let him examine me.â
He gazes at her and she returns the favour. After an intense staring competition, Kevin admits his defeat. âSure. Troy, be careful when you examine her.â
âOkay. Just go.â Troy is annoyed and pushes Kevin out. âGo and detoxify yourself.â
Kevin got curious. âHow do you know I was poisoned?â
âJust go away. Everyone knew about it.â
âBut I havenât tell anyone.â
âYou sure are daring. Didnât you say it yourself? That you were poisoned and asked Bella to go around to find the antidote?â
Troyâs questions surprise him. He has never said such things. âI didnât. I went back and slept right after that...â
What does Bella want? Why is she making this difficult?
He doesnât understand. He glances at Sunny, who also has a confused look.
Kevin can only push the questions in his heart to the back of his mind. He will have to discuss this with Jonathan when he goes downstairs.
Ellison and Jonathan have a heavy look on their faces when Kevin goes downstairs. âWhatâs wrong?â He asks them.
âKevin, thereâs something we need to tell you...â
Kevin suddenly has a premonition in his heart. âBro, tell me.â
âThe police at L Mountain found a body in a river. After an autopsy, the body turned out to be...â
Kevin almost lost his balance at the news. âBro, are you sure itâs true?â
Ellison nods. âYes. Thatâs Bellaâs body.â
âDidnât she run away? Why did she drown?â
Ellison shakes his head. âShe did not drown. Her body was thrown into the river after being intentionally murdered.â
His statement is enough to wake Kevin up. He immediately lifts his head and asks, âWhat did you say?â
Jonathan sighs and steps forward. He said, âI know you feel bad but itâs true. The murderer is most probably a professional killer. He didnât leave a single trace behind.â
Kevin looks at his surroundings blankly. The people around him have worried looks on their face. Whatâs unexpected is that he isnât as sad as he thought he will be.
âLetâs check the results. Weâll discuss other matters later.â
Jonathan hesitates while glancing at him. After getting the green light by Kevin, he checks Kevinâs pulse.
âItâs fine. The poison is not too bad. You can be saved.â
Rather than paying attention to Jonathanâs diagnosis, thoughts keep flashing across his mind. If Bella really died, then who is the one that is spreading rumour that he is poisoned and is seeking for an antidote?
âWait a minute. Thereâs a problem.â Kevin canât help but to interrupt their conversation. âJust now Troy told me that someone was spreading rumour that I was poisoned and needed an antidote. Iâve only gotten to know about this yesterday night. So, who knew about this earlier than me?â
Kevin is immersed in his analysis. He turns and looks suspiciously towards Jonathan.
Jonathan understands his gaze immediately. He smiles and explains, âI only know about this yesterday.â
Kevin can only analyze in another direction. âThat means, the person spreading rumour is not Bella but the murderer.â
He thinks about it for a while. When heâs certain thereâs no other possibilities, he nods his head.
However, Baron who is standing at the side interrupts his thoughts. âThe body might be fake. You havenât seen it so you canât prove that itâs real.â
His sharp remarks silence the others. The mystery in front of them seems vague than ever.
At this moment, Troy opens the upstairs door and walks down silently.
Kevin looks at him and asks, âHow did the test go?â
Troy only glance at him, not blurting a word.
âSay it quickly. I can handle it.â Kevin starts to panic.
âYour child is fine, but...â
Kevin gulps, the âbutâ word means no good.
âBut what?â
âWhen your wife heard that youâre fine, she ran away.â
â?â
Shock is written all over Kevinâs face. âWhat did you say?â
âYour wife ran away!â Troy closes his eyes and shouts. Kevinâs fists clench tightly at his sides. âCanât you even take care of one person?â
Troy feels helpless. âDo you know how your wife threatened me?â
âYea?â
At that time, Kevin shows a I-will-kill-you-if-there-is-no-good-reason face.
âShe said that if I donât help her, sheâll jump from this building and two lives will be gone. Iâm a doctor and I really canât see two lives just gone like that, so I have to let her go.â
Kevin asks only one question after hearing his explanation. âWhich direction did she go?â
Troy points towards the backdoor. âThat way.â
âGoddammit!â Kevin curses and gets ready to chase after her.
Ellison reaches out and grab his arm. âDonât go first.â
âBro!â Kevin shouts at the top of his lungs. âI need to get to her!â
Ellison rubs his forehead. âDonât act rash. Iâll call Kelly first and check whether your wife contacted her or not.â
Kevin stands at there anxiously. Jonathan takes his chance to approach him and says, âLet me check and Iâll prescribe the medications.â
Annoyed, Kevin stretches his hand for Jonathan to check, but his glare remains on Troy, as if itâs a move to force the truth out of him.
Troy innocently waves his hands. âAre you still blaming me for this?â
At this time, Baron suddenly speaks up, âSince thereâs nothing left for us to do here, weâll leave. You guys go and do whatâs need to be done then.â
âWait.â
Kevin looks at him suspiciously. After a while he replies, âTrue, thereâs nothing anymore. Go ahead then.â
Baron raises his eyebrows, silently agreeing with Kevin and turns to leave. He gets into the driver seat.
As expected, thereâs someone hiding in the backseat. He looks into the rear-view mirror and smiles. âSunny.â
Sunny comes out of her hiding spot and rubs the non-existent dust on her body. âHi.â
Troy gets into the passenger seat. He checks his surroundings one more time and glances at the person behind him. He whispers to Baron, âStart the car and leave this place. We have to leave from the devilâs den as soon as possible.â
Sunny nods her head, agreeing with Troyâs words. âHurry.â
Baron knows that he canât convince Troy, so he just step on the accelerator and leaves the place.
Suddenly, Sunny remembers an important question. She asks, âCan I ask both of you a question?â
Troy answers, âJust ask anything. We welcome any questions.â
A sly smile creeps on Sunnyâs face. âWhich one of you is the top?â
Troy immediately regrets himself saying that they welcome any questions.
âA lady like you have to receive prenatal education for the baby in your stomach. Do you understand?â
Sunny shrugs her shoulders. âThis baby will be given to Kevin Quinn anyways. Itâs fine. Now, answer my question.â
Troy looks at Baron, hoping that he can save him. However, Baron has no plans to get involved. âYou started it so youâll solve this.â
Troy can only grit his teeth. He answers, âOf course itâs me!â
Sunny actually never expect him to answer that she almost choke when he answered. âAhem. Troy Viktor, you are very brave.â
However, Baronwho is driving looks at Troy coldly and replies, âOf course.â
Troyâs limbs shiver under his stare. He even start to feel his specific body part starting to go numb.
âAhem. Letâs not dwell on this issue anymore.â
âCan you guys explain to me what happened back there?â Baron asks, bringing the conversation back on the right track.
For some reason, in the past when she first meet Baron, she thought that he was a kept man. Now, she feels that thereâs something very different about him.
However, for now, these two men are the only people she can rely on so she dares not to talk without thinking beforehand. She starts to explain briefly in a pitiful tone.

Baron remains emotionless throughout her story. He says only one sentence after that. âIâll give you three seconds to rephrase your sentences. Your story canât even be accepted by elementary students.â
â...â
âIâm jealous. I donât want to stay in that stupid place and be a giving-birth machine.â
