Jealous

After the incident that night, Alice and Felix are now being treated at the hospital.

But Felix's condition was the worst.

Until now the man had not woken up, while Alice had been awake since earlier.

It's just that every time she closed her eyes, Alice always delirious and the very scary image of Sea came again.

Luckily Carlos was always by her side.

"Alice, you should rest, your condition is not stable yet. Come on, go to sleep..." Carlos said.

"I don't want to sleep anymore! I'm afraid she's coming! I'm also afraid she'll hurt me again!" said Alice, crying hysterically.

Carlos immediately hugged the woman.

"Come on, stop crying, she's not going to kill you. I'm here, Alice ...." Carlos said.

"She's a bad woman ... she's killed a lot of people," said Alice quietly, she seemed helpless.

Carlos was sure that he had paralyzed Sea at that time, but the police did not find Sea's body.

Carlos thought that after this he would be thrown into prison for killing people, but the person he had killed disappeared instead.

This means that Sea is still alive, and it's also possible that Sea will return to terrorize them and the people around them.

What is clear is the disappearance of the Sea makes Carlos want to immediately move Alice from the city. Not only Alice but also Felix will also be transferred to Oxford to live with his aunt.

Felix's family wants the young man to be safe from Sea's terror. And heal herself from all trauma mentally.

However, the plan for the transfer will be carried out later when their condition improves.

Meanwhile, the victims of the Sea atrocities are in the process of autopsies. And will be returned to their respective families after the process is complete. Including the bodies buried under the basement floor.

When Carlos was hugging Alice, right at that moment Bella came over to them.

The woman couldn't help but cry, and she hugged her little sister too.

"Alice, I'm a widow now, Alice! I don't have a husband!" said Bella with tears in her eyes.

"What are you doing, Alice? Why aren't you responding to me?" Bella asked worriedly.

"Bella, she's still in shock Bella, I think it takes time for Alice to calm her down," Carlos warned Bella.

"Oh my God! Is she going to be all right?!"

"Never mind, take it easy, Bella. I'm sure Alice is fine, but at least let her be here,"

"But how can I calm down, Carlos! Even I can't stay here long to look after her! I have to take care of Diana, and Daniel. Then what about Alice?" Bella looked very confused. The clear droplets kept, wet her reddened face.

On the other hand, she wanted to take care of Alice, but on the other hand, she also wanted to immediately meet her children. And of course, Bella also has to prepare a funeral service for Archer after the autopsy is over.

"Don't worry, Bella. I'll take good care of your sister," Carlos assured Bella.

"Thank you, Carlos. At least now I'm a little calm, I'll leave Alice, okay?"

"Yes, Bella. I will look after Alice until she is well, and I will immediately take her to Oxford,"

"Yes, Carlos," Bella left Alice and Carlos with a heavy heart that very day.

This is the best choice because Danil and Diana must have been waiting for her.

A few days later, Alice and Felix's condition began to improve.

Even Alice was no longer delirious, it was just that she daydreamed more often, and became a person who was easily frightened.

Now Alice approached Felix in his room.

She looked happy to see Felix who had woken up.

Alice slowly touched Felix's face.

"Felix, how are you?" Alice asked.

"I'm fine, Alice. How about yourself?"

"As you can see, Felix. I'm fine," Alice replied.

Then the two people hugged each other.

Alice burst into tears. This is like a dream, she still lives and sees Felix again.

Still vividly remember what it was like to live in a basement with her feet in shackles and her hands in handcuffs.

At that time Alice also had to watch the preserved corpses lined up neatly and seemed to be staring at her.

The last moment she saw Archer's death in front of her, was still ringing in her mind.

Sea was a serial killer, as she suspected, even more, sinister in reality.

"Felix, I'm glad to see you're still alive... I'm also glad we can still hug like this," said Alice.

"I'm happy too, Alice. I thought my life would end in the hands of that crazy woman, but I didn't. God, still give me a chance to live." Felix concluded.

From the outdoor window of Felix's room, Carlos watched Alice who was hugging Felix.

It can be seen that the relationship between the two of them is very close.

Carlos remembered when he had just met Alice.

They were also friends at first, and often Alice hugged him as a sign of affection for a friend. Until finally the hug turned into a hug of love for her lover.

Seeing that closeness, Carlos started to get jealous and was afraid that hugs are changed.

What was originally a sign of friendship turned into a sign of love. The same as his love journey when he was with Alice first.

But Carlos couldn't just stop them either. After all, he's nothing like Alice's husband anymore.

All he could do was be patient and forced to give Alice the freedom to cuddle with Felix.

"Alice, how did we survive?" Felix asked.

"Of course, we can!" Alice answered. "Because God still gave us a chance to live, so He sent a man to help us." She added.

"Who's he?" Felix asked.

"Carlos," Alice answered.

Hearing that name called, made Felix flinch.

"You mean 'Carlos' your husband?" Felix said with a scornful expression.

Alice nodded her head in response.

Suddenly Felix's expression turned annoyed.

Of course, Carlos' arrival made him jealous.

'Shit! Why did that man come again? He is crazy, how to come to the woman he has hurt!' Felix was scornful in his heart.

"Felix, are you okay?" Alice moved Felix's shoulder, causing Felix to snap out of his reverie.

"Eh, it's okay!" Felix said.

Alice also continued her story about the arrival of Carlos, who had helped them all. even though Alice hated Carlos so much, she still had to be grateful for the man's help. Because without Carlos, then she and Felix will die, and maybe Sea's crimes will not be exposed forever.

"Felix, maybe if Carlos hadn't come at that time, we would have died," said Alice, and Felix was still silent with a stiff expression on his face.

He honestly didn't like Alice talking about her ex-husband, even though Carlos had helped them. But Felix didn't want to offend Alice. So he kept listening to the woman until finished speaking.
