The call was from Chloe, saying they got information that Desmund might have been seen at the airport. Denny quickly told Carl to turn the car around and head to where his brother might be. The opposite direction from the City which takes half an hour to get there. When they arrived there, they were told Desmund Vero had booked a flight to France, and the plane was to live in thirty minutes. "Carl, please go to Jenny and get my passport in my office. It's on the top drawer to the left on my desk," Denny hurriedly instructed his driver as he also booked his ticket. His company was nearby the airport, so it was convenient to get his passport within the time needed. "I will call Jenny to meet you upfront of the office building so you won't have to leave the car and drive back here. I need to bring Desmund back before something happens to him. If you don't make it back before the plane's departure, I will find a way to sneak in or book for the next available flight," Denny spoke with Car
"Why is he here?" Carl mindlessly asked as he cautiously kept an eye on Desmund Vero. No matter how he tried to analyze the reasons why this person, Denny Vero's brother, Desmund, would be in this particular place right now, it was hard to come up with a wild guest. Trisha, on the other hand, called Trixie, as she had promised before, she would call the lady as often as she found time, and today as she was preparing to leave Denny's house to visit her mom, she was on the phone with Trixie."Hi, sweetie!" Trixie gleefully answered the call. Unlike Trisha, Trixie was leisurely having her morning exercise, her yoga. Her phone was on a loudspeaker as she stretched her muscles gracefully. "Good morning!" Trisha greeted with enthusiasm."You sound strange," Trixie uttered with a frown, followed by a chuckle. "Forgive me; I just thought I heard you happy but sad. I'm being paranoid. I think hahaha," Trixie explained hurriedly, still chuckling as she reproached herself for such nonsense."O
"What doctor?" asked one of the nurses. They were all together earlier, making rounds. They weren't done yet. Actually, they just ran this way when they got the call for an emergency."It was a new face. I didn't even get to see his name tag as everything happened too fast," Trisha answered with her head turning back and front. It was impossible, but she was hoping that man would walk by, and she could tell the doctors inside her mom's ward right now which doctor she was referring to. But instead of that man, Trixie arrived. The doctors hurriedly moved to do what they could. A Series of commands from the doctor could be heard, and the nurses would respond with speed. "What is going on?" she held Trisha's hands, asking gently although her face was wearing a panicked expression."I don't know…" Trisha replied weakly. Trisha and Trixie saw the doctors' and nurses' backs as they assisted the patient until they heard a long beep sound.Trisha felt a sudden cold from out of nowhere, cree
“The number you dialed is out of the service area. Please try again later.”This had been the only response Don Carlo has ever got since he tried calling Denny.“This is odd,” the Don murmured. “Where could he be now?” Don Carlo thought Denny would be in his office. But since he did not know his office phone number, the Don asked Scott to check on it as well and send it to him. Fortunately, it was easy for Scott to find the man he needed to be beside Trisha right at this very moment. “Good morning, how may I help you?” asked a female voice to Don Carlo as soon as his call was answered. “Is this Denny Vero’s office?” “Yes, sir. May I know who is calling?”“My name is Carlo, a friend of his and I am calling for an emergency. I need to speak with him,” the caller replied with urgency.“I’m sorry sir, but Doctor Vero has not arrived at his office until now,” the woman answered. “What? Where is he?” “My apologies, sir, but I wasn’t informed of his schedule today. He might just have b
Soon, the bed Trisha was lying on was being pushed out of the operating room. Trixie held Don Carlo tightly by his arm and asked Claudette to assist the nurses in moving Trisha to the ward for recovery. She wanted to ask the doctor what Trisha's conditions were."Okay, I'll take care of her," Claudette nodded hurriedly. "But I don't know how to tell her brother what happened to Elaine and his sister. He was here last night. He was with his mom the whole night until I came in the morning. He might still be asleep or already at work. I don't know how to break the news to him," Claudette cried without a sound.Trixie could not help sobbing softly again. But she sniffed and cleared her throat. "We'll think about it in a while. I will talk with the doctor first," Trixie's lips trembled as she spoke, suppressing the extreme sadness.The nurses started to move the patient while the couple stayed to ask the attending physician about the patient's conditions."She is in a very sensitive stage
While on the plane, Denny had no idea what was going on with his "Honey" back at home. He was relieved to think that he was able to talk to her in the morning, but he regretted not having the chance to call her before the plane took off. He was so preoccupied looking for his brother that he thought about calling her as soon as he got the chance. And he will have one when they land in France, and as he would need to book a ticket to return right away, Denny was thinking about making an international call at the airport. Before boarding the next flight back to the US. But despite the thought that he did not let her know he would not be going home tonight, which made him feel guilty that she would be alone at home, he was also restless for something he could not understand. He was no way to ask anyone back home as his flight was still halfway to arrival at their destination. Denny tried to think if there were any reason he was missing to remember or realize why he would feel so anxious
"Aleah…?" Everyone in the room turned their heads to the door."What's wrong? Why are you in there? Where is mom?" Silence answered Yohan's questions. Don Carlo and Trixie did not know what to say. Claudette had to leave before Trisha woke up. She was reluctant to go, but Trixie insisted. Claudette had been around the hospital for so long, and Trixie was also cautious about sharing sensitive information with anyone else along with Trisha."Yohan…" Trisha was too weak to sit up, but she still initiated. She failed, though.Trixie hurried to assist Trisha while Don Carlo walked to the young boy's side. "Please have a seat," Don Carlo gently pulled Yohan by his hand and guided him to sit beside the patient's bed.Yohan stared at the man, but he had heard from Trisha about Don Carlo and Angela Wade during their conversations, on the phone, and in-person, so he assumed this was the man his sister mentioned before. According to the description she said. He followed as Don Carlo guided b
Trisha and Yohan looked at the older man in the room. He sounded so gentle but hesitant. Trixie was also eagerly waiting for what her man was about to say. She tried to look into the man's eyes. She was hoping Don Carlo would look at her to give her a clue of what he was about to say. Don Carlo did look at her, but Trixie could not understand the message in the Don's eyes. And so she waited patiently."Your sister is like a daughter to us. Right, Angel? If it's okay with both of you. We would like to assist her. We would like to help her with everything she needs. And we support your dreams if you want to go to the army. To be just like your dad, we can look after Aleah for you," Don Carlo spoke slowly and clearly. "He's right. And we would love to. We can also help you investigate further what happened to your mom," Trixie added.Don Carlo took his Angel's advice to send someone to the airport to seize Desmund Vero. He quickly made a call to his contacts in the law enforcement. He a
