“How did she get out? Did she just?” A daring suspicion crossed her mind. “Was she trying to kill me?” Gilda murmured, realization dawning on her.

This was no accident but a possible murder attempt.

Was Emily trying to end her life? Gilda was seized with fear, realizing how close she had cto death.

If Jackson hadn't been there to push her away and protect her, she might have died.

Before he could speak, his eyes widened in surprise, thinking to himself, “Isn't him Jackson Harrington?’ Alex was about to say something when Jackson signaled for silence.

Alex, catching on and noticing Gilda’s anxious expression, guessed the situation and began treating the wound.

“Your boyfriend's injury seems quite severe,’ the doctor commented, playing along.

Gilda, focused on Jackson, didn’t catch the oddity in the doctor's remark, only urging, “Doctor, please, treat him quickly.” Alex reassured her. “Don’t worry, it's nothing serious,” Then, turning to Jackson, he added, “Your boyfriend's quite a catch, handsand wealthy.” Gilda found the doctor's comment odd. “How can you tell he’s wealthy?” Caught off-guard, Alex coughed awkwardly. Then, realizing who Gilda was, he said, “Aren’t you familiar somehow?” Gilda was surprised, “Familiar? Do we know each other?” Alex recognized her. “Ms. Gilda Lynch from the Lynch family?” Gilda strained to recall any information about Alex but cup empty. “Do you really know me?” Jackson coughed lightly from behind. “Alex, my college classmate. You met him at a graduation reunion.” 2/2
