My Ex Next Door

A week later.

Novie tensely watched the twin while they were busy looking at the MR result. They looked so serious which made her knee trembles.

(Why are they not saying anything?" she asked herself.

While the twins are checking all the result for all the test they've done to Ken, they kept on mumbling the words she couldn't understand, but their expression tells her that some were not right.

Minutes later, Daniella left without saying a word, Novie gulped and looked at Danny who was busy checking Ken's vitals.

The room was so quiet and the coldness made her skin shiver, even more, she wrapped her arms around herself and wait patiently for Danny to notice her.

Earlier when the twin arrived, they threw a quick glance at her and say hi and went on to check Ken, even Bea who has been sitting by the window was watching them patiently.

Finally, Danny looked at her, she gave him a faint smile and was about to talk when the door opened, it let out Daniella with a hammer her hand.

"This is the solution you're talking about?" Danny asked Daniella. The woman smirked and walked closer to Ken.

"Yup. Maybe if he feels pain, his conscious will come back. Seems like he enjoys his vacation in the hell so much that he forgot to wake up, but it ends now!" Daniella explained and lifted the hammer in the air.

Novie widened her eyes and gasped, shock by Daniella's craziness but what surprised her the most was Danny wasn't doing anything to stop his sister.

"I need a full eight hours sleep so he better wake up now" Novie shut her eyes as she doesn't want to watch Ken's brain to shatter into pieces while Bea's scream bounced around the four walls of the room.

Beep...

Novie's temples furrowed when she heard a strange sound. Slowly, she opened her eyes and her expression went dull when she saw the hammer emitting a green light while scanning Ken's head.

"What's that?" Novie asked and got up, she walks to their direction with questions all over her face.

Daniella looked at her.

"This is a portable x-ray. Did I scare you?" Daniela asked in a relaxed tone.

(Scared? You must be crazy! I almost pee in my pants) she exclaimed inside.

Daniella laughed which made her expression void, she wanted to say more but the woman went back to her business.

"hm... normal" Daniella said and handed the hammer to her twin brother. Danny skimmed it and twitched his lips.

"Then why is he not waking up?" Danny asked himself.

"Should I get a real hammer?" Daniella asked her brother.

Novie got up, she can't take it anymore, the twins are doctors but seems like they are not taking the situation seriously.

"Daniella. Can you please be serious. I really want to know what is happening" she asked in a worried tone.

Daniella looked at her and sighed.

"I tried everything I can but he's not waking up. Don't worry his body is healing. Once he wakes up he can walk straight to the altar" Daniella jokingly said an winked at her

Novie doesn't know why but she felt her cheeks burning.

"Oh! by the way. We can talk about your wedding now. Do you want it in church or outdoor? Don't worry about Ken he will marry you anywhere even in hell" Daniella continued.

Novie widened her eyes in discomfort, Daniella was so straightforward that she could feel her face burning, she chewed on her lips to hide her smile.

"It's fine Daniella. I will wait for Ken to wake up" she strumbled as she speaks.

Daniella shrugged her shoulder and walked towards the door after seizing her brothers wrist.

"Novie. We will leave now. Please don't kill Mrs. Chu though it will be nice but still don't do it" saying that Daniella winked at her and left the room with Danny.

Novie gulped and discreetly turned to Bea. When she noticed that the old woman was looking at her, Novie lowered her eyes.

She took the towel from the couch and folded it when she heard a wheel sound going towards her direction, she turned around to face her, Bea had her casual emotionless face and she had a folder on her lap.

Novie creased her brows when Bea handed it to her and looked at the window, avoiding her eyes.

With confusion, she accepted it and opened it to check what was inside.

Her eyes widened in shock when she realized what it was, her lips parted a little and stared at Bea in surprise.

"this..." she spoke in disbelief.

Finally, Bea met her eyes.

"Yes. That's the evidence I have for your brother's crime. I still don't like you but I see you love my son. So, I am giving you a chance to be with him." Bea spoke in a cold tone and rolled her wheelchair towards the door.

Novie was speechless, she was not expecting Bea to be like this.

Before Bea left the room, the old woman swung her head to look at her.

"As I've said, I still don't like you" saying that, the old woman left, leaving her speechless.

Novie covered her parted lips with a hand, emotion-filled her heart, she looked at the documents on her hand and gulped repeatedly.

It was full of pictures of her brother with a gun in his hand and a dead person laying on the ground, there was also some papers containing the information of gun he had and the autopsy result, even though the place was different but the feeling she had was similar to that night where she saw the video of Ken killing someone.

Tears ran down her eyes and she laughed bitterly, thinking that she thought leaving Ken will not bring danger to her family, but in reality, her own brother was also a danger.

She wiped her tears and exhaled. Right now, she's determined. She will not leave Ken no matter what happens.
