“Kai's calling?" Xara asked shocked looking at her friend's faces.

 They hadn't returned from the Bahamas, they had a week more to return, so why was he calling.

“Good morning Mr Maximilian." She greeted.

“Hey, how are you girls doing?" He asked.

“We good just woke up a couple of minutes ago." She explained.

“It's still night here, I just called to see how your vacation was going," Kai admitted.

“That's nice of you, thanks once again, Mr Maximilian." She smiled.

“Your welcome, what are you girls up to today? Partying?" He inquired turning on the other side of the bed.

“Naah, just some shopping, let me call it a girls day out." She explained.

“Okay, that sounds nice. Anyways have fun and then take care." Kai told dropping the call.

“Okay, what has gotten into Kai?" Alianna asked her friend.

“I am as shocked as you are Alianna," Xara replied.

“Let's get ready for our day out," Penny said walking into the bathroom.

“Isn't that Xara Maximilian?" A random girl asked her friends as Xara entered with Penny and Alianna.

“Omg! She is. Let's go take a picture with her." The girl's friends suggested as they rushed towards her.

“Oh hey!" Penny greeted as the girls approached them.

“Hi, we were wondering if we could take a picture with you." The girl told.

“Sure, why not." Alianna agreed as they got up and took pictures with them.

“Thanks, it must be really exciting to be the wife of the multimillionaire Kai Maximilian." One girl said as Xara smiled.

If only you knew what I was going through in this marriage you won't wish to be in my shoes. Xara thought to herself.

“He's so dreamy, forgive me for drooling over him." Another said.

“That he is," Xara added.

“See you around Mrs Maximilian, and her friends." The girls bid them goodbye as they left them.

“Someone's getting famous." Penny chuckled as they walked into the mall.

Kai's mine.

He's always been mine!

He dumped me because of that riffraff he calls wife?

I hope he likes his present. The strange woman muttered to herself as she followed Xara and her friends at a distance.

“Guys, I know I suggested this but my feet are killing me," Xara whined as she walked ahead not paying attention to her surroundings. She moved just in time as cans from the canned food section tumbled down. She wasn't lucky enough as a bunch of heavy cans landed on her ankle.

“Oww!" She exclaimed sitting on the floor. The woman hurried out of the mall as soon as she noticed people rushing towards Xara.

“Are you okay? Try getting up." Alianna said.

As soon as she stood on her foot she felt a sharp pain on her ankle. Alianna caught her in time before she fell to the ground.

“Call an ambulance!" Penny panicked as she yelled at the mall attendants.

Within a couple of minutes later, an ambulance arrived and She was put on a stretcher as her friends followed suit.

“Kai's calling again," Penny said showing her the phone.

“Don't--" It was too late because she had already answered the call.

“Where's Xara?" He asked as Penny answered the call.

“She's here but had a little accident that's why I answered her call," Penny explained.

“Accident? What happened?" He asked concerned.

“Something strange happened, cans from the shelf in the mall fell in her ankle, but it was as if someone had deliberately pushed them because they couldn't fall on their own since they were well arranged," Penny recalled.

“Can you hand the phone over to her please?" He softly asked as she did.

“Hi," Xara said glaring at her friend.

“Xara, are you clumsy enough not to watch where you were going! Do you want people to point fingers at me that I don't take good care of my wife?" He boomed shocking her friends and Xara herself.

What's happening?! Penny thought to herself shocked at how he could change within nanoseconds.

“Mr Maximilian, I'm sorry for being clumsy. Don't worry I'd be alright. Sorry for tarnishing your name as well." She apologized as she dropped the call.

“Im so sorry, I shouldn't have told him about it. It's my fault." Penny consoled her friend.

“No, it's not. We all thought he had changed, but I guess it was a façade." She sighed as they reached the hospital.

The nurses took her into the ward to check if she had broken her ankle. Her ankle had turned into a purple-blueish colour.

“ How can he be so heartless?! I feel like snapping his neck, urggh!" Penny whispered to her friend.

“How can parents force their daughter into this kind of marriage, how the hell do they sleep at night?"  Alianna replied.

“Those after money and fame, and nothing else. Even of their daughter is dying they don't seem to care. They rather blame her for being the cause of her own problems." Penny answered as the doctor walked towards them.

“How's the doctor?" Alianna asked.

“She's fine, but what really happened?" The doctor asked.

“We were at the food section where the canned foods are. Then all we heard was cans crashing down the shelves, She tried to get away fast but she wasn't fast enough as large, heavy cans of food landed on her ankle." Penny explained.

“That's strange, they won't fall unless someone pushed the shelf." The doctor stated.

“That's what I thought," Penny said again.

“So how serious is the injury?" Alianna asked.

“Well, due to the force at which they landed on the ankle, it tore her ligament. She would have to use crutches for about six weeks." The doctor explained.

“Can we see her now?" Alianna asked.

“Of course, this way please." The doctor answered taking them to Xara's ward.

“Hey," Penny greeted.

“Hi girls." She smiled at them.

“You feeling better now?" Alianna asked.

“Yh, the pain has subsided a little and we are going home tomorrow." She told them.

“Tomorrow?" Penny asked shocked.

“Yh, Kai's sent his PA to come to get us. He says I can continue with treatment in Brooklyn." She explained to them.

“Oh, okay." They both answered.

“We would go sought out the paperwork and head to the hotel to pack. We would be back in the evening to see you." Alianna said as they bid their friend goodbye and left the ward.

This is just a warning, next time I am not missing. The strange woman said to herself as she walked past Xara's ward.

“Is Kai bipolar or what? One minute he is all sweet, the other minute he's cold?" Penny asked as they entered the hotel.

"That is a question for him to answer," Alianna stated.
