CHAPTER 5
Fiona was dressed in casual wear as she was about to leave for the hospital.
Her younger sister, Rosa, has been in the hospital for over a month now.
She was diagnosed with a brain tumor.
The doctor told Fiona to get $5 million for the surgery for her sister, but unfortunately, Fiona hasn't been able to find such a huge amount of money.
As he made her way downstairs, she met Jenny already waiting for her.
“ Hey sis,”
Jenny called, but Fiona ignored her and walked past her.
“I'm sorry sis,” Jenny held Fiona's hand.
“ I have been in love with Donald for a very long time, even before you two got engaged.” Jenny began to cry.
“ So why didn't you say it? I wouldn't have gotten engaged to him if I knew you loved him so much.”
Fiona said, her face blank with no expression on.
“ How much do you need? Sis, I can pay any amount just to have Donald all to myself. He means a lot to me” Jenny said desperately.
“ Here I was thinking you've changed, but you're still your old self. Do I look like I need your money?”
Fiona threw Jenny's hand off her roughly.
“ I know you need money for Rosa’s surgery. I'm willing to give you $10 million if you let me marry Donald.”
Jenny wiped off her fake tears it was replaced with a smirk.
“ Donald was never mine and the wedding has been called off, so you can have him all to yourself.”
Fiona said and was about to leave again when Jenny’s words stopped her.
“ I'm pregnant with his child. We will be parents soon.” Jenny said proudly, rubbing her flat tummy.
“ For how long were you pregnant?”
Fiona didn't know when the question fell out of her mouth.
“ I'm two months pregnant.”
“ So I've been foolish myself all this while.”
She muttered with a sad smile before walking away.

It took just thirty minutes to arrive at the hospital where Rosa was admitted.
“ Sis? Why are you here? Isn't today your wedding?”
Rosa furrowed her brows once she saw Fiona by the door.
“ I called the wedding off.” Fiona smiled bitterly.
“ Why? Did something happen?” Rosa was concerned.
“ Donald has been cheating on me with Jenny.”
Fiona replied and sat on the stool beside Rosa’s bed.
“ Jenny? You mean that witch?” Rosa asked.
“ Hey, don't call her a witch,” Fiona warned.
“ How could she do this to you?”
“ She's even two months pregnant with his child, I caught them last night so I had to call off the wedding.”
Fiona replied and brought out the food she had prepared from home.
“ I feel like killing that bitch and her mother.”
Rosa gritted her teeth, causing Fiona to laugh.
“ Everything will be fine soon, Rosa. I will get the money and make sure you get out of here alive.”
Fiona promised and held Rosa's hand, grazing it.
“ I love you so much sis, thanks for always being by my side.” Rosa appreciated it.
“ Everything would be fine, Rosa. Just stay strong.” Fiona said.
They were discussing a few minutes later, but all of a sudden, the machine beside Rosa's bed beeped red with a straight line.
Fiona felt her heart jump out of her chest.
“ Rosa! Rosa! Doctor! Nurse!”
She began to shout as she couldn't feel Rosa’s pulse anymore.
She rushed out of the ward barefooted to get the doctor.
The doctor arrived and examined her.
“ She needs to undergo the surgery now, all else, she will die.”
The doctor said, a pitiful expression on his face.
“ Please save my sister, I promise to find the money. Just save her life first.”
Fiona fell on her knees in front of the doctor.
“ Ms. Fiona, we can't undergo the surgery if you haven't paid at least half of the amount.” The Doctor said.
“ The decision is yours, you either find the money as soon as possible or watch your sister die before your eyes.”
The doctor said and walked out of the ward.
Fiona fell to the ground, her face smeared with tears.
She felt vulnerable as she couldn't do anything to save her dying sister.
“ What should I do?” She muttered and immediately stood up.
She made up her mind to accept the money from her step-sister Jenny if that was the only way to save her sister's life.
“ I should meet with Jenny.”
She stood up and was about to leave the ward when the door opened, revealing Jenny and Donald.
“ Oh no, just look at how pitiful she looks. Can't believe my almighty stepsister could cry her eyes out just because of her sister.” Jenny mocked.
“ Jenny, I agree with whatever you say. Please give me the money to pay for my sister's surgery. She is about to die.”
Fiona held Jenny’s hand desperately.
“ What made you think that I would help you? Donald told his parents about our baby and they've approved for us to get married, so there's no need to give you any money.”
“ Donald is mine now.” Jenny smiled and kissed Donald on his lips.
“ I might consider helping you if you lick Jenny's shoes,” Donald said.
“ Huh?”
“ If you kiss her shoes, I will pay for your sister's surgery,” Donald repeated.
Fiona couldn't say a word for over three minutes.
“ I…will….do..it.”
She muttered and bent down to lick Jenny's shoes, but almost immediately, a strong arm pulled her up, holding her by the waist.
“ Who the fuck are you?”
Donald asked, anger visible in his eyes.
“ She doesn't need to lick your shoes, since I've already paid for her sister's surgery.”
Raven's deep voice rang in Fiona's head.
Turning to look at who he was, Fiona gasped when she saw that it was the man she had a nightstand with.
Just when she wanted to talk, ten doctors and nurses rushed into the ward to carry Rosa with them.
“ Hurry up, she must not lose her life, all else, consider yourself fired!” Raven said to the doctors.
“ Bitch!”
Jenny said and stormed out of the hospital with Donald behind her.
“ Why…are…you… here?” Fiona stuttered.
“ I came to propose to you.”
Raven said flatly, his eyes blank with no expression or emotions in them.
“ Huh?”
“ Be my hidden wife for six months.” He proposed.
