I wake up at the sound of people arguing.
"Why is she still in bed? I thought everything was fine." A deep masculine voice said.
"We are testing her brain again, when she wake-up this morning, she's claiming that she's not your wife. She hits her head in the accident, we think that it is best for her to stay here till we see the results, Mr. Lee." Doctor Melendez said as she discuss some complications that might occur while they are operating on me.
I slowly open my eyes, wishing that everything went back to normal.
They all become silent when the nurse moves to help me sit.
“Doctor Melendez, is my husband visiting me?”
“Mrs. Lee, this is your husband, Mr. Rickard Lee. Don’t you recognize him?” Doctor Melendez pointed the man beside her. My eyes went wide when I recognize the man.
“R-Rikkard L-Lee?”
“It seems that my wife doesn’t need to stay here longer. She recognizes me as his husband already.” Rickard Lee said.
It’s impossible. Rickard is not my husband. He’s my husband's enemy in Golden City. He acquires more of the business here and builds his indestructible empire. I remember seeing him once at a party. He rarely shows himself to the public, but now, they are claiming that he is my husband. This is a joke. I said to myself.
“I think I need that examination, Mr. Lee. My head is aching and I need to know if it’s okay.” I said.
I need a reason to stay in this hospital and find out what’s happening. It seems that the woman I saw in the mirror earlier is the real Mrs. Lee. It seems out of this world but I think, I am in her body.
“Leave us for a moment, I need to talk to my wife privately.” They all leave the room. I feel scared all of a sudden. This guy is not an ordinary man, He is Rickard Lee for heaven’s sake. “Are you making this up because of our arrange marriage?” he said after they all leave.
“I-I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I said.
“I know it’s been a week since we get married, but you’re acting like I really force you into this. You’re the one who came to me and ask my help. Why are you acting as I kidnap you?” I can see the frustration in his eyes.
I don’t know what he’s talking about. My memory of Sofia’s past is somehow blurry.
“It’s not like that Mr. Lee. I just need some time to recover from the accident.” I explained.
“Are you still afraid of the kidnappers? I told you, I’m doing all I can to find them.”
Kidnappers? This is a big mess. I need to find ways to go back to my body.
“Y-Yes, I’m still afraid of those men. I still need some time to recover. I-I think I need to see a psychiatrist. What happened to me can cause a lot of problems.” I am really bad at lying.
He is now staring at me and I can’t stop looking away.
Rickard Lee is man-made perfectly by God. His dark eyes make everyone nervous. I’ve only seen him twice in my life but his features are remarkable.
His sharp features look like he was molded from granite. His red lips are sexy which matches with his fair flawless complexion. The Golden City’s girls are dying to be his woman except me. I found his smile sometimes sinister and dangerous like there’s a hidden meaning to it. I remember my dad said that he wants him to become my husband but the following day I brought Martin home and introduce him as my fiancé.
“I can’t put a one or two in you but you seem different. Maybe you really need to stay here. Don’t worry, your dad is on his way to see you. He’s been very anxious about your situation and wanted to see if you’re okay.” Rickard said.
“Thank you.”
“No need to thank me. We still have a deal to fulfill plus my grandfather is requesting grandchildren already. You promise him that we will grant his wish soon.”
I almost fell on the floor when I heard him say that. Grandchildren? A baby? If I heard that from Martin, maybe I’m jumping in happiness right now. But hearing it from him, in this state of mind makes me want to run outside and never come back.
Speaking of Martin, I don’t know what happened to my real body and to my company. I need to find something that can help me find news about my company. I look around.
“What are you looking for?”
“A phone? Laptop? Something that I can use to look on the internet.” I said.
“You’re impossible.” He called someone on the phone then his secretary came with a brand-new phone and give it to me. “Use this. It’s already loaded. You can surf all you want. I leave now and see you tomorrow.
“Thank you, Hon.” I mindlessly said.
He stops in his tracks and look at me at the moment. I can feel my face burning due to embarrassment but to my surprise, he smiles for a brief moment before he leaves.
That guy is really weird. I can’t help but open the camera of the phone and see my new face. This girl is beautiful, actually, we’re almost the same. We can pass as siblings.
I closed the camera and search for Sy Shipping International, but it turns out that Martin had already changes the name of my dad’s company to Uy Shipping International a week ago. I found out that my accident was all over the tabloid because my car hit the car of Lee’s wife, Sofia Young on the day of their marriage.
I was browsing when I saw an article about me.
-Mrs. Angela S. Uy arrived dead in the hospital after her accident.
I am dead? NO!!!!!!!
