"So, I'm married? Where's my husband? Did he..." my voice suddenly broke, "survive the plane crash?" "He was not with you. As far as I know, you traveled alone." I heaved a sigh of relief. My eyes shifted at the rings on my fingers. A wedding ring and an engagement ring. They were both very beautiful, especially the engagement ring. The diamond was so enormous. I wondered if the stone was real. If it was, it must have cost a fortune. "Did he come to visit me here." I asked. She nodded, then her smile widened. "A strikingly attractive man visited you yesterday. He caused some noise in the nurse station, the young nurses were blushing and feeling giddy at his handsomeness. I guess that was your husband." "Oh." I suddenly became conscious of my appearance. I touched my hair trying to fix the tangled mess. "If you really don't remember what you look like, then you're in for a big surprise. You're very pretty yourself." "Really? Um... thank you." "You'll see. I'll come back later and bring you a mirror." The nurse said, then left the room. Later that evening, she came back and brought me a small mirror. I stared at my reflection for a few minutes. It was like looking at a stranger with a thick bandage around the forehead. My green eyes riveted at my long hair. I never thought that I was blond. . . 🔥 Aaron's POV:🔥 Much as I loved for Jessica to rot in hell, I could not do it for my brother who had been dead for nearly four months. Troy would be very disappointed in me. Making an effort to look for her was the least that I could do. This is for Troy. I kept on reminding myself and set aside the hate that I felt for that greedy blond bitch. I coordinated with the authorities and together with my own rescue team, we went to the crash site. Hundreds of injured and dead bodies lying on the grassy ground, but Jessica was not among them. She was still trapped inside the plane. Getting all the five hundred fifty passengers out of the plane was not as easy as it looks. A portion of the plane was crushed, and many bags, hand baggages and dead bodies were blocking the door. After two hours of search, Ari, the head of my team came running towards me. "I think we found her. You have to see her to confirm." "Where is she?" "At the back of the plane. She's attended by the medics." I squirmed when I saw the woman lying on a stretcher. Her face was wrecked and covered with blood. She had an open bone fracture in her right leg. Her arms and some parts of her body were scalded with burns. She was gasping for breath like she was dying. I pitied the woman, she did not deserve such fate. I knew it was savage of me, but I wished at that moment that it was Jessica who suffered instead. "Do you think she's Jessica?" Ari asked. "I'm not sure. She's blond, but... " I looked at her fingers, "she's not wearing my mother's ring." "What kind of ring?" "An engagement ring. It has an enormous square-cut diamond at the center, and the white gold band was accented with small diamonds." I knew my mother's engagement ring by heart. The only time mom took it off from her finger was when she gave it to Troy eight months ago. I remembered it very clearly. Troy came home after a long vacation in Florida, looking so tan and happy. We were all surprised when he announced that he was going to propose to an American girl named Jessica Gulliver. A long time ago, mom promised to give her priceless engagement ring to the bride of any of her sons who would marry first. To honor her promise, she gave the ring to Troy for Jessica. The head of the New Zealand Police search and rescue team received the complete list of passengers and some vital information that could easily identify them, like seat numbers, age, address, etc. There was also footage of the passengers at the boarding gate. "Her name is Lauren Wright. Twenty three years old from Tampa, Florida." The head officer confirmed that the woman was not Jessica. "Can I have a look at Jessica Latsis at the
