David was stunned. "Is he okay?"
"He’s still in critical care," Carl replied, his face dark with worry. "Vivian, come back to the country with me."
Vivian shook her head adamantly. "No, I’m staying in Country S. I want to be with him. I won’t leave!"
"Fine! Stay if you want!" Carl snapped. "I’ve done so much for you, and you don’t even spare me a glance! My father is in the hospital because of this, Vivian. Think long and hard about your choices. When you’ve figured it out, maybe you can come back to me."
Furious, Carl stormed out. Vivian sat frozen on the sofa, tears streaming down her face, while David immediately began booking tickets, determined to leave Country S as quickly as possible.

After lunch, Ella was escorted back to the bridal suite by her bridesmaids.
Tonight, she and Eric planned to spend their first night as newlyweds in the presidential suite of the Nelson Group Hotel.

Eric returned to the suite and, seeing his bride, couldn’t help but smile as he removed his jacket and slowly approached the bed.
Ella’s peaceful face and softly closed eyes made Eric tread carefully. He sat down gently and held her hand in his.
