Mana: Before The Rise 24 Returned Wife 8

He must have taken his family's side and believed them without checking facts or he saw the facts and didn't much of them. He's a main character for G.o.d's sake and he doesn't have a decent sense of humanity. NO matter what Maddison did, he at least should have shown her the benefit of the doubt.

But, in the end. He'll get what he wants. Maddison was going to die, and the sad thing is that she has too.

-One Week Later-

[Two more Days left] Elfin said and Rachel nodded and leaned back painfully in her chair. The grunting pains were getting worse she noted.

"If Maddison wasn't used to being Sick, I don't think I would have been able to stand up" Rachel mumbled.

Just then a knock sounded at her door. She opened it reluctantly, Isandro was there looking grim. She clutched the door.

"Can you come down to my study? There's something I'd like to talk to you about."

"Of course," Rachel said faintly, feeling sick. 'You Son of a B****' she cursed the man for making her move. Why, because she had to walk down the steps.

In the study, Isandro told Rachel to sit down on the leather couch by the wall-to-ceiling shelves, she sat down quickly.

"So, what is this about?"

"This is the result of the investigation I've had done into your whereabouts for the past two years." He glanced at the file in his hand and looked up, a harsh glitter in his eyes. He held it up.

"I didn't think you would actually look, more or less care" Rachel sighed and leaned painfully against her chair with her eyes closed "Let me guess, you found nothing"

"How, did-"

"Isandro, I am not as dumb as you think and….." paused and took a painful breath "I Made sure that if you decided to come after me, you wouldn't be able to find me. Just in case if the note didn't work."

"…"

"I wrote that note to keep you at bay, it was meant damage your pride so that you wouldn't go looking for me."

"Why?"

"Why? You ask, Isandro, 'I' am used to doing things alone. And like I said before our marriage was never about that, just like what you said to your sister, I fulfilled my purpose." Rachel gulped "I applause your effort for trying to meet me halfway Afterall these years. But now it means nothing to me, it is already to late to try to change anything"

"...."

"Madalyn Hope was the name I went by when I left the hospital. That is all I'll give you." Rachel got up quickly and left without turning Back.

-Two Days Later-

Like she hoped Rachel remaining days where peaceful without much disturbance. She left in the middle of the night when everyone was asleep. And from there she was in a hospital bed with an IV attached to her. In a place somewhere far away from Isandro.

"Hey" Rachel heard the familiar voice of Reed and smiled he eyes didn't open for him. The man was her Doctor throughout the years and a good friend.

"Thank you, I got to see him before I go." Rachel said as softly tears lightly fell from her face.

"Hey, you're not going to- "

"I am Reed, I have to"

"The surgery…."

"Will fail" Rachel cut him off.

"…."

"Fate is a cruel destiny" Rachel repeated lightly as she fell asleep. Too, groggy to stay awake.

-Some Time Later-

Today was the day of her surgery, this time she experienced what Maddison went through first-hand in her memories. The unbearable pain that intensified as days went by.

Rachel would be lying if she said she wasn't scarred; in fact she was terrified. This is what dying felt for a 'sick' person. She trembled and opened her eyes, when she smelled Ca.s.sia.

"Kevin…." She whispered it was so low that it was barely alliable, she was still groggy. She saw Isandro's pale expression that looked like she was being crushed by a boulder. "The truth hurts don't it" Rachel said to him.

Isandro lifted his head and meet her eyes, he walked over to her.

"The flowers are lovely"

"My father sent them; he's went to go get a drink." Isandro said Horsley with a pained expression.

"The rest of the family?"

"Not here, they refused to come." Isandro said lightly "My father is getting a divorce; he's now living with his lover…. I had never seen him so happy"

Rachel couldn't help but smile, she was honestly happy for the old man in her heart.

"Maddison…I'm- "

"Don't, you don't need to. In fact, I don't want to even hear it." Rachel said as she cut him off. "Isandro, I am no angel that'll forgive you so easily. I'm human just like you and I also hold grudges. So I can't accept your apologies."

"Then I will work to earn them, I promise" he said taking her hand.

'I forgot; everyone thinks this surgery will be a success' Rachel smiled.

"Sir, its time" a nurse came in along with a doctor. It didn't take long for them to get her ready and rolled her out of the room.

Rachel held onto Isandro's hand and her eyes full of tears.

"Don't worry I'll be out here waiting, you'll be fine."

"Isandro" Rachel smiled "You know, theirs a girl in the room next over. She suffered from heart problems all her life, lets hope she gets better…." Rachel said before closing her eyes, she left Isandro in confusion, but, she didn't care. It was painful but she felt soon peace in herself.

The Emergency light went after being wheeled into the room. And by the time she comes back out, she would no longer be in this world.
