Chapter 96: 96 96: Telling the truth

The day in the hospital

Ken doesn't know exactly what happened but when he opened his eyes, the first person he saw was Daniella with blood all over her body and face flashed in worried.

He tried to talk but his throat was dry. Slowly, he parted his lips to say "water"

Daniella left and came back with water.

The woman helped him to sit on the hospital bed and drink the water. When he felt the liquid rushing to his throat, he felt an overwhelming relief to his body.

Then he turned his eyes to the floor and found dead bodies lying dead.

"really? I just woke up and this is the first thing I will see" he spoke in sarcasm but the deep expression on Daniella's face made him stop.

Suddenly, Daniella grabbed his wrist and weak body to the toilet and turned on the shower.

He hastily removed his arm from her while glaring at her.

"I don't know how long I stay in the hospital but I am not ready to take shower" saying that he tried to open the doorknob but Daniella stopped him and put a finger on her lips asking him to shut up.

His eyebrow creased when Daniella turned the water off and pushed his body inside the small cabinet.

He wanted to protest but the door in the toilet slammed opened followed by some men speaking in a strange language.

Through the small hole, Ken watched Daniella as she shot the three men that came. He wanted to help but one of Daniella's feet was on the closet, stopping him from opening the door when the commotion ended, he pushed the door opened and looked at Daniella who was trying to revive one of the men.

When the man opened his eyes, Daniella spoke in a language he could not understand but the man didn't say anything and bite his tongue until it's bleed.

"what is happening?" he asked her.

"I was so close... so close " Daniella spoke while slapping the face of the man.

Ken was puzzled with what's happening around.

"I will ask again... Daniella what is happening" the woman sat on the toilet with her hand full of blood and sighed.

"John somehow found a way to get into some powerful organization. I just recently found that we are all being tracked since your incident. They install bugs in my computer and house and even here in the hospital. So every conversation we have were monitored" then Daniella laughed bitterly and kicked one of the dead men.

"they killed a lot of our people. Now I need to make a new plan to distract them while I am tracking their whereabouts" he could hear the anger in her voice. He still doesn't know what was happening but when Daniella spoke again, her words made him want to strangle her.

"Since your awake, you can maybe pretend to have lost your memory then I can use the time to check who was following Novie"

Ken who had his body leaning against the wall creased his brows when Daniella mentioned Novie.

"what about Novie. And where is she? I am supposed to meet her at the airport" he suddenly remembered his girlfriend.

Daniella got up and washed the blood in her hands," oh don't worry, Evan picked her up six months ago." Ken's body frost by her words.

"six months? What?" he asked in confusion.

"yes brother you've been asleep for six months." he doesn't want to believe her since the last memory he had was the accident and that's all.

He shook his head and decided to ask more question later, he was curious who was following Novie.

"what do you mean by Novie? who's following her?" he asked, still confused.

"The Aldovia" Daniela replied short.

Ken walked closer to her and put both hands on her arms and grip it tightly.

"shorty. You better explain everything to me, I don't have so much patience"

"fine. Ugh! You're more gentle to me before... what caused you to change" Daniella had her face crinkled as she asked the question.

"I found out that you were my sister... " he replied in a dulled voice and continued, "Now what about Novie?"

"wait... didn't I tell you about Novie and the Aldovia," Daniella asked innocently. Ken shook his head as a response.

"Oh!, well Mary was part of the royal family in Aldovia which makes Novie a princess and remember the previous princess died so now they need a new princess but there's also some other people who want the throne so they sent John Castro. And now that freaking man wanted to get the throne for himself so he somehow contacted the organization where Dr. Lee was previously working. They sent some men to follow us and since I was not expecting it they got into my house and find out all my secrets" Daniella explained while drying her hands.

But all the information didn't sink in his mind. The only word he got was Novie's name and the word princess.

"Novie is a princess?" he uttered absently.

"yes. So now I need you to pretend to lose your memory so I can buy sometime… and don't tell Novie about this. We will let her parent tell her the truth." Daniella replied. Ken shook his head in disbelief, he will never pretend to not remember Novie, especially after his accident.

"no. I am a businessman, not an actor" he replied in irony.

Suddenly, Daniella's face turned serious.

"I know but please... do this for me..." seeing her begging face, Ken shut his eyes.

"Let me help you shorty, she's my girlfriend and it's my obligation to help her" He insisted but Daniella shook her head and gave him a faint smile.

"You'll be in danger if the organization find out that you're helping me. So just do what I say and let me track them" her soft voice made him agree to do what she asked.

"what should I do?" he asked.

"nothing. Just go back to the bed until the next person come in and pretend you don't know them. Especially your mom and Novie"

Ken gnashed his jaw, he was not used of lying, therefore he finds it hard to do.

"I don't think I can lie. How would they believe me?" he brushed a hand on his face with the problem rising.

"Ken... you need to believe to your own lies if you want to convince the other people. Remember our first meeting. Pretend that it was the only memories you have. You need to go back to your old self. The selfish... demeaning... ass hole...." His eyes narrowed with all the insulting words she's throwing at him.

"SHUT UP!", he exclaimed.

Daniella giggled but her face was still worried.

"what I mean is… you need to forget everything, I know it's hard and impossible so I can only find one solution so forgive me for doing this but I will need to hypnotize you" Ken creased his brow in confusion.

"what?" he asked while his eyes were focused on the object that Daniella had in her hand.

Slowly. Her lips parted and all the word she uttered made him close his eyes.

"You will forget all the memories you have since you met me... your mother specially Novie... but even your mind could not remember everything. Your heart will believe everything Novie will say... all of your memories will only go back once I say the word 'Roy Chu'.

Before Ken shut his eyes, he saw the tears dropping from Daniella's eyes

Then his eyes closed and when it opened, he found himself in the bathroom alone.

--

Novie shook her head while laughing like a psycho, disbelief by his story.

"I don't believe you..." she stated and pinched his cheeks so hard, afraid that she might be dreaming.

"I know... but everything made sense to me when I received a phone call from her and then she mentioned my father's name and everything came rushing." Novie still had her head shaking, doubting every word he's saying

"how can she possibly do that" her voice went louder.

"I haven't told you but Daniella and Danny are special They have a chip installed in their brain which makes them superior to an average human."

Novie creased her brow, she knows that Daniella was smart but she didn't expect her to be a person with a chip in her brain.

"prove it" she wanted to believe him but she finds it ridiculous.

Ken sighed and sent Daniella a message to come to their apartment.

"she's coming but there's one more thing" Then ken's face turned serious.

"what?" she didn't like the look he had in his face.

"she can read your mind..." and his words made her jaw dropped at the floor.
