Chapter 3

Earnestine Blanchard's POV

"Didn't you see any suspicious people around?"

"W-nothing. H-I didn't care if anyone was around. I was more worried about Rhett's condition."

"Does Mr. Lawson have any other relationship?"

My ears ached at what the police said.

"W-nothing! Rhett is not that kind of man! He loves me so much! We're getting married so he can't do to me what you're accusing me of!"

"Calm down Ms. Blanchard. I'm not saying Mr. Lawson has another relationship, but there is a possibility that someone will be jealous of you so he did it to Mr. Lawson."

"I-I don't know. W-I have no enemies. My friends, they support us. I know no one who is jealous of us."

"In that case, I can say you are innocent Ms. Blanchard. We will take care of finding others who can help with the case."

"S-thank you. But can you watch over us? Maybe the one who did this will come back to Rhett. I don't want to hurt anyone in my family. Especially Rhett."

"All right, Ms. Blanchard."

After the interrogation I returned to the hospital. Mom texted and said that Rhett should be moved to another room. I went to him and saw his miserable situation.

"T-Tita Amelie."

"I'm not mad at you Earnestine. The only thing I can't accept is why didn't you tell us you received a text from Rhett that he was in danger ?!"

I have no answer. I know my sin. I was in a hurry.

"I hope not, I hope this does not happen. Rhett, my poor child."

I sat on the sofa in the room where Rhett was. I feel sorry for Aunt Amelie because I feel her fear that we might lose Rhett. Hours, days, weeks and months passed. Rhett remained in that condition.

We all hope he wakes up. Aunt Amelie and Tito Gerar and I take turns guarding Rhett. My parents are busy with our restaurant business. And my parents are also helping to handle Rhett's family's bar business properly.

I am at home now. Rhett's parents are watching over him now. I have not slept yet. So Aunt Amelie sent me home first so that I could rest.

I took a bath first. I remember what happened again. Rhett's accident. The fear that he might disappear from the ken forever.

I can't handle it by chance. I was combing in front of the vanity mirror as I focused on a notebook with a padlock on the side. On its cover is Memories With My Love written.

"Where is the key?"

I rummaged through the flashes of my vanity mirror. And I found a small heart-shaped container. When I opened it I saw a necklace with a key pendant. I opened the notebook and realized it was a diary.

Memories with Rhett. I lay down on the bed and started reading its contents. I want to relive the happy memories with Rhett. My dearest Rhett.
