Chapter 41
(Secrets and Lies)
“I remembered my memories” She blurt out staring at Glory who seems shocked, and was not ready to close her mouth any moment.
She shuttered and took little steps closer to her “You remembered everything” She mumbled as tears streamed down her cheeks and Piper nodded as a single tear rolled down her cheeks
“You remember me” Glory screamed loudly as she didn’t hesitate to hug her tightly.
They were hugging tightly as tears streamed down their cheeks for seconds..
“I miss you so much Aurora” Glory mumbled as she kept sobbing continuously.
“It’s fine bunny” Piper called her friendship name.
“I miss your smile unnie” Glory smiled, sniffing her nose as she disengaged from the long hug.
“Your leg got burnt a little” Glory mumbled softly as she move back her gaze to Piper’s.
“It’s hurting.. and it’s itching me seriously” She replied
“Sorry” Glory consoled.
“He’s not awake yet” Piper asked no one in particular but Owen replied while Glory nodded.
“He’s not rousing, but the doctor said they will monitor his health till he wakes up… Piper burst into tears as Owen halted his words.
*His phone chimes at first but rang out*
“Excuse me” Owen said and left the room and picked up his call..
“Hello” Owen said.
“Hello,, I got this number on my daughter’s diary, my name is Mrs Mary Walker”
“oh Mrs Walker” Owen exclaimed a little.
“I’m sorry for calling, but is this Mr Walter” She asked.
” Not at all, but this is his personal Assistant” Owen replied.
” I’m sorry for calling you, but I just want to ask if my daughter Piper Walker is still at work.. we are worried about her whereabout.” She asked nervously.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
” She’s fine, ma’am. Piper schedule was tight. So she slept at work.” Owen said, forcing himself to smile on phone.
” I’m sorry, hope I’m not disturbing you perhaps maybe my questions are too much, I’m just worried about my daughter’s health” Mrs Walker said almost close to tears.
” We have suits for workers, I will tell her to call you when she’s awake” Owen said as he gulped down his saliva down his throat.
” Thank you so much” Mrs Walker appreciated, with a long breath..
” OMG” I just told a perfect lie, oh my goodness.. I just have to do this.” He mumbled walking back inside the private ward.

Piper wheeled down the wheelchair to Collins side with tears on her cheeks. She sniffled her nose as she took his warm hand into hers.
“Just strode your fingers Collins, Please for my sake, do this for Kiara and Mr Walter and Mrs Walter. Do this for Glory, we are all waiting for you” Piper cried as she held his left palm to her face as she shrieked loudly.
“I believe he will come back, he will wake up Aurora” Glory mumbled, touching Piper’s shoulders as she used her other than to touch her nose.
A loud sniffled could be heard by the two friends.
“Collins” she mumbled his name with a loud cried as she took is hand to her face as she sobs on it.
“Do you still cry like this ??” Collins said softly with a silent chuckle. He turned is attention on her Piper.
“Collins” She screamed and she stood up on her feet immediately, forgetting how painful she was feeling minutes ago. That wasn’t her concern that moment.
“Glory” He mumbled taking off the oxygen from his nose.
“I don’t think it’s appropriate you take that off. ” Owen said worriedly.
“I want to talk to the woman of my life, I want to talk to my family that are close to me, same goes with you.
“Save your breath” Glory said softly as she touched his left cheek.
“I’m fine Glory, I should be worried about Aurora” Collins mumbled sitting up properly.
“You don’t have to, I’m fine it’s just a minor injury.” Piper replied, sitting back on the wheelchair.
“How did you guys found us?” Collins asked curiously.
“I don’t think explaining everything to you right now will do you good but no good” Owen answered.
“I’m supporting his suggestion” Glory added.
“I have the right to know what happened to my penthouse” Collins muttered clenching his teeth angrily.
“Calm down Collins. I know they have a reason why they aren’t telling us anything” Piper said staring at him deeply.
“I know they might have a reason to, but this bullshit. I’m the victim here same with you.. He paused trying to catch his breath. “I know what to do?” He muttered turning his face away.
“I will explain everything to you sir” Richard said at the door. Everyone turned their attention on him immediately.
He took steps forward “I will explain everything from the beginning to the end. How it happened and how we end up at your penthouse.” Richard said with his hand behind his back.
“You can tell me everything Richard” Collins said, signaling him to come forward.
“Do you know it’s going to bring discomfort to his health?” Glory yelled.
“I’m sorry for going against your wish but I think it’s not appropriate to keep such things from him. Now that his life has been exposed to danger. I lost my first boss which is his late fiancée. Her promise was to keep him safe even though it’s to risk my life.
“There are a lot of secret the Walter family don’t know” Richard yelled out of anger. He had a conspicuous lump on his left cheek.
“Secrets” They uttered with full surprised conspicuous on their faces, ..
