Coff. Coff. Water sprouted out from his mouth. Finally,Resh was breathing. However, he had not open his eyes still. Then he started shivering.
"He's having a convulsion! Quick get me some warm blankets!" The assistant of Mister Isaac Zeller gave instruction to one of the crew who immediately left.
"Pete, I'm glad you are back! Please call Boss and request for a chopper. This guy needs urgent medical assistance." The assistant commanded a tall guy who earlier assisted Mister Isaac Zeller. He must be the driver who came back for the assistant.
"Noted, Lou!" Then he was on the phone.
The crew came back with some warm blankets. Lou, that seem to be the assistant's name, took off the wet clothes and shoes from Resh leaving only his underwear and wrapped him up in the warm blanket.
"Fever is starting. Get me some wash cloth, please!" A member of the crew left to comply to Lou's request.
Lou looked around and asked,

Patrice’s POVI gave the direction to our home to Pete. It wasn’t hard to find because we occupy one big compound in Hamstead County. Lady Henda and her children occupied the mansion. My family and I used to live there when Grandpa was alive. However, after his death, his second wife had become rude so Dad decided to live in one of the smaller houses but still inside the compound.My husband Resh lives in the stables. He had lived there for the past ten years since he was adopted by Grandpa. Even after we got married, he chose to live there. My Dad had warned him never to set foot in our home as he isn’t welcomed there nor would he allow me to live in the stables with him. So my marriage really was just written in papers. My father had told me to agree to my Grandpa’s request so that he can be written in the old man’s will. There was always an option to divorce later on.“Uhmm, I guess we are here, Madam,” Pete disrupted

Resh's POV“Yes Sir, I couldn’t be mistaken, this guy has the lightning birthmark at his ankle and three moles in his inner thigh.”“He is asleep still, the sedative the doctor gave him had calm him down.”“OK, I will let you know soonest of any update.”I felt a bit groggy and my head weighed heavily with a throbbing pain. I could hear only one man talking so he must’ve been on the phone. I tried to move my hands but I cannot. So were my feet. I opened my eyelids and thank goodness the room was dimly lit so I felt at ease to look around.My hands and feet were tied and bound to the bed. Where was I? Was I kidnapped? The man must have heard or felt me move so he walked towards me maybe to check on me.“Young master, you are awake!”“Young master? ME? You are calling me your young master?”, I couldn’t believe my ears.“My name i

Patrice POV"Grandpa?"I couldn't believe my eyes! The room was a bit dark but I could see the silhouette with the help of light flooding from outside the door.There leaning on the wall was a life-size portrait of my Grandpa. What is that doing there? It seemed unfinish yet as there were several brushes and paint that litter around. Is my husband trying to paint my Grandpa?I tried to look for a light switch using my phone's flashlight. When I finally found one and turned it on, bright light flooded the room.I could say Resh did a great job in renovating the stables to be his home. It was simple but neat. Some of the old furniture from the mansion were here but they look better and cared for in here. There was even a fireplace with an animal hide near it for a carpet. It felt cozy and warm. It was just one room with kitchen on one side, a foldable couch on one corner that may serve as his bed probably. Above the fireplace were some books. Forex,

Chapter 13 Awkward MomentResh’s POVI woke up sweating profusely. I found it hard to breath earlier but I guess it was all part of the dream as I was breathing normally although a bit fast now. It is that nightmare of drowning again. Although it is clear to me that my nightmares were not mere dreams but had happened in reality, it still had come to bug me. The light was dimmed but I could make out a figure in the sofa. Patrice? What was she doing in here? She wasn’t moving so I presumed she was sleep. I tried to get up to put a blanket on her forgetting that my arm had an IV line connected to it. Somehow, the noise of the commotion I made woke her up.“What are you doing?” She got up and walked towards me blinking her eyes sleepily.I felt ashamed to tell her I was going to put a blanket on her. “I was on my way to the washroom. I need to pee,” I

Author's POV CLANK CLANK CLANK ... The noise of pots and pans falling made my spirit jump. I was feeling so sleepy after finishing the thirteenth chapter just a few hours ago. My brains refused to think further. It had been three days that I have continuously worked on my novel everytime. I would finish all the house work. Still yawning and stretching my arm, I opened the door to check what the commotion was about. Spat! An egg suddenly hit me on my forhead. "Bull's Eye! " "Dang, why 'd you do that? " I stared angrily at my mother-in-law, who obviously was making all the noise in the kitchen which happened to be just outside my room. I reached for a towel nearby and wiped off my face. "What time is it Resh? Are you trying to make people here fast?" She returned my glare with a more fierce look. "I'm sorry Madam. " I bowed my head unable to hide another yawn. I reached out for the frying pan a

Chapter 16 Ten Million Dollars As I was taking my seat, Borj stood up to lock the door. We don’t want the surprise look of our staff when they open the door and find me seated in the manager’s chair. “Want some coffee first?”, Borj offered. “Let’s get down to business first. What is ten million dollars doing in my account?” “Why do I sense you are annoyed? Shouldn’t you be happy you have more money?” The mocking face. He looks playful today. What could be up on his sleeve? “You need coffee. Just one moment. I can get my secretary to do that for us.” He stood up and press some numbers on the intercom. “Sweety, get us two coffee in here, one dark and strong and one latte.” I promptly stood up from the manager’s chair and I was standing by the window curtains already when we heard a knock at the door. Borj stood up to open the door and let his secretary in. “Thank you my dear” he said and locked the door aga

I was tapping my fingers on the table eagerly waiting for Clyde to make his appearance at the restaurant we agreed to meet at. I chose to have an exclusive booth where no one can see us and I can easily go in and out thru the backdoor. Of course, the restaurant belonged to my grandfather's chain of business and Clyde had already informed them of my passage. Knock...knock... "Get in." "Young master." He was starting to bow and the door was still open behind him. I hurriedly looked down with my cap over my face until I heard the door clicked. "Clyde, in public places like this, make sure nobody sees you bowing to me." I reprimanded him. "I am sorry young master." "Please take a seat." I invited him to a chair across from me. "Before you arrived at the toilet, I heard those two men speaking. The stout guy mentioned about a proposal. What new project do we have?" "Hmmm. The tie up with W*****n Office Co., what else could it be? " "Hahaha" I can't hold my laughter."Seriously?" I

I met Mister So, head of housekeeping who brought me around the building. Mr. Harvey had mentioned before Mister So entered, that the housekeeping head is also a loyal servant of my grandfather. He also gathered the rest of his team and introduced me as a newly hired cleaner. "These are the cleaning supplies you will need. Are you sure you want to clean the men's toilet?" "Yes. Where do the managers go?" "Managers office are at every floor depending on which department they are. but the toilet for them are at the 5th floor." "Okay then. Thank you Mister So, I can take it from here. " I winked at him and waved him off. I took the housekeeping lift and went to the fifth floor. I was restocking the supplies at a cubicle when two men entered. One of them sounded familiar, I wonder where I have heard that voice. They were having a good laugh over something. Then there was silence as both men took a pee at the urinals and one could

That was quite a slap! Before we all had time to react, the intercom rang. I rubbed my cheeks while she went to pick up the phone. The stout guy looked at me sharply as if about to say something but the receptionist was holding on to his hand. "Reception area, good day! ....Yes.....Yes..." "HR..." She whispered looking at the man and pointing to the phone. Then she looks at me. She puts the phone down and told us,"We are to go up to HR office." "Wait, I still have something to do..."the man wanted to object but the the lady was holding on to his hand. "This better not be trouble Trisha!" Trisha. That must be the name of the receptionist. "You too mister," She said to me as she turned in my direction going on ahead with the stout guy. "Don't worry honey. I think this is our chance to work in the same office and I can work on you," she whispered the last sentence but it was still too loud for me to hear. I w

All my bags are packed. I'm ready to go... I was whistling the tune while packing my bag to go to work. Everyone in the house was still asleep so I try to be as quiet as I can. I have to leave the house early to report for my work. Clyde had volunteered to pick me up but I chose to take public transportation instead. He would need to orient me as to the heirarchy in the company as well as introduce the people I would be working with.At six sharp, I was already in the Danovan Sky Tower, a very prominent structure at the heart of the city. There weren't much people yet and reception was still empty. I went to what seem like a lounge and got a cup of coffee from a nearby dispenser. This is good that the company offers free coffee to employees and visitors alike. Clyde sent a message to my phone asking if I was already in the building, I should message him.I ignored his message and finished drinking my coffee until I noticed there was someone in the reception area.

With my height less than an inch from six feet and a muscular built and my wife at five feet three inches and pettite built, I was sure to crush into her if I were to fall over her. I tried to regain my balance in mid air and toppled over close to the table but my head still landing on Bridda's lap."The heck!" She screamed.She immediately stood up and my head hit the edge of the couch."Oucchh!" escaped from my lips. She looked at me with a raised eye brow."Oh sorry," I think I was one with most injury but I was the one apologizing."I think I've had enough for you tonight." She sighed as she packed up her laptop and marched to her room.Why do I get so clumsy with her today? It's a tiring day. Maybe I need rest and think of matters tomorrow.The next day, while everyone was eating the breakfast I prepared, I made the announcement,"Uhmm!" I cleared my throat. "I applied to Danovan Enterprise and I got the job."

I arrived home to see Bridda busy on her laptop still. She looked up, nod as I was closing the door, and went back to her laptop."Why still up?" I asked her. But I really meant to ask why she was outside her room."Why are you home just now?" She asked and stared at me for a moment while waiting for me to answer.I believed I was the first one to ask but moments like this, it is hard to argue. "Uhmm, I asked Borj opinion on some matters. ""I see... Don't worry, I was home before dinner time and ordered food delivery for everyone.""Ohh dang! I forgot....I'm sorry! I was too busy I wasn't aware of the time." Nor did I even noticed I was hungry."Have you had yours?" She asked monotonously without looking away from her screen. Woow, is she concerned about me now?"There's still some left in the fridge. You just have to heat it up." She spoke before I could even answer."Thanks," I replied walking a

So I'm here in the VIP room of Danovan Hospital, gawking at the old man on the bed who had just survived from a fatal heart attack. I think this is just a ploy of his to get me to agree to his plans. Although it's the first time, well there's always a first time to everything."Young Master," Clyde came in to the dim room and walked towards me. "You may leave now.""Thank you. Please update me when he is awake.""Have you spoken to everyone in the mansion? We are not to let anyone know of his condition.""Yes Young Master."I stood up and I was about to turn the knob of the door when I weak elderly voice called out."Resh." It was no longer commanding but making a plea."Resh."I walked to the old man and took hold of his hand."Sir, we will talk when you are feeling better. Please take a rest for now.""You are like your mother. Stubborn." He heaved a sigh and a tear rolled down the side of his left eye.I

"Young Master..." Clyde's voice trailed off as someone seem to have taken the phone from him. "Resh." It was a deep low and commanding voice. "Yes, Mister Danovan?" I asked my grandfather with all formality although I really hated talking to him. "Please come to the mansion." "Why is that?" "I have a car for you." "I don't need a car Grandpa!" I got irritated and tongue slipped. "I mean, Sir." "Clyde will be come to pick you up." Tooot..Tooot.. Conversation done...and they don't even know where I was. Do they have a GPS tracker on me? After five minutes, my phone rang. "Yes Clyde?" "Where am I to fetch you Young Master?" OK good he is asking. So no tracker on me at all. "Come by the cafe in front of Bridda's office." "I am here Young Master." Wait... What? How did that happen? So I'm really being tracked? My doubt starts to increase. I left the cafe and when outside, I looke
