Another months had passed...
"Señor Madrigal, you need to take your medicine!" Mateo reminded while Benjamin's hand was on his shoulder.He was suffering from his illness again. At the length of time, Benjamin was diagnosed to have Parkinson's disease of which he inherited it from his father. And it was already on stage two. Although it could still be cured, it was dangerous if he would neglect his medicine."Give me those d*mn pills!" Benjamin grumbled.He was ill-tempered and impatient when his illness attacked him. His hands were shaking and he couldn't properly walk.That's the reason why he looked for a doctor who could prescribe him some medicine and who could check his status from time to time. So, when Eve took a holiday after being fired by Albert, she saw Benjamin's ad on the net and applied right away.Graduating as a doctor with flying colors and at an early age, she impressed Benjamin upon seeing her."Here, Señor!" MateoAt the dining table, they were all gathered to have a splendid meal."Dr. Garner, we didn't see you a while ago. Too bad, you didn't see Young Master had his baby steps!" Dr. Turman uttered while staring at her.He was sitting opposite to Eve while she was sitting beside Lauren."I was a bit dizzy and slept this afternoon, Dr. Turman. I'm glad Albert can already walk little by little. Dr. Houston is indeed a very good therapist!" Eve replied in a friendly manner.It made Samantha and the rest glance at her wondering what had gotten into her that moment."Eve, are you alright? Are you still dizzy?" Lauren worriedly asked as she placed her palm on her forehead."I'm alright now, Madam Lauren. I took an aspirin a while ago!" she immediately responded not letting the madam of the house worry."That's a relief to know. If you wanna rest, you can always take your rest, Eve!" Christopher added.He glanced at her who was a bit busy looking at her food
"Mommy, just two months left and you will come back here. I miss you so much!" Tristan who was now five sweetly told his mom on the phone."Yes, baby. I miss you, too. Do you eat on time? Do you sleep on time?" Samantha who was massaging her temples at the moment also replied.She missed her son so much and she also missed his birthday that just happened last month. Although she greeted him on a video call, being with her son was totally different."Yes, mommy I do. I'm also the best at our school. My Spanish teacher told me, I am a fast learner!" Tristan proudly uttered.She could feel his confidence and imagine how he gestured his words at that time. He must have raised his chin and chest again she said. And probably his face was forming a haughty smile."That's great sweetie. Do you still play your violin and ride your pony?"She kept on asking him. She really wanted to go back to Ireland soon to be with her son again."I do mommy. But I have ju
"Albert! Give me my phone now, please!" a panic-stricken look was all over her still drowsy face.She got up reaching for her phone but Albert sent some of the photos to his phone number first. When she grabbed her phone from him, his sharp stare was glued on her. He took his phone, saved the images while Samantha was already trembling thinking as to how she would start.She had no idea what Albert was doing right now and the only thing she could see were his fingers hastily fiddling the touch screen of his smartphone while his look was stern.However, when he saw that he would call someone, she tried to take the phone from him but he moved her hand aside instead."Albert!" she gently uttered while pursing her lips."Jim! I want you to give an info on the photos I sent you!" he lordly commanded his former assistant in Michaels International Group."Albert, you don't need to do that. I will tell you everything!" Samantha told him in trembling voice.When he saw h
"My son, that time ahm! I had no idea of your existence. I just found out now. And your mom and I just patched things up that's why she told me about you!" Albert told him clearly and slowly thinking he was just five.This was his. His mini Albert. A part of his blood was running through his veins. He needed to be careful with his words coz he knew well just one slip, Tristan would dismiss his lengthy explanation. Coz he was like that!"Okay! So are you still seeing that doctor?" Tristan acted like an investigator of a huge case that needed to be closed right in an instant.Samantha who was sitting on the edge of her bed, was covering her mouth while glancing at him from time to time."Yes, Tristan. I'm still seeing her and she also lives in our mansion just like your mom!" Albert gestured Tristan to listen more when he saw his sour look."Let me finish. Because she is one of my doctors!" Albert replied in one breath.He had been beckoning Samantha to c
Christopher dropped his cutlery on the table while Lauren held her chest feeling breathless.Dr. Turman took a vacation for he had a special surgery schedule at his hospital. Eve wasn't present either. She took a week off, she reasoned out a family emergency. It was only Christian left taking care of Albert aside from Samantha."Albert, of all the jokes you're gonna throw to your parents at a dining table, not that grandson thing! Do you want me to have a heart attack? Who will take care of our company if that happens?" he scolded his son right in an instant upon the latter told them about his five year old son's existence."Dad, I am telling the truth?" he insisted but even Lauren, she was still deciphering how could that happen.Christian was also flabbergasted gawking at all of them. What's happening again he thought. They always had a splendid dinner whether Eve and Dr. Turman were around or not."Why not ask the mother of my son?" he was becoming impati
Thursday!The time had come and the weather was fair. Dr. Turman had gone back to the mansion but Eve was still on leave. They were all staring at Albert and Samantha who were preparing for their flight.Four bodyguards from the Michaels household plus five nurses including Christian and Dr. Turman were going with them. They were in front of the mansion giving the two in loved a proper lift off."I hope when you two get back here, you bring my grandson with you!" Christopher expressed his eagerness to go with them but he just couldn't leave his company especially now that Director Edwin Marshall was making a move and Acting President Danny Russo had finally become his ally."We'll do our best to bring him here, Master Michaels!" Samantha politely replied and gave him a slight hug. She did the same thing with Lauren."Sam, I think you should start calling us mom and dad. If Tristan will hear you still calling us Master and Madam, he might misunderstood it!" L
"Tristan, this is your daddy Albert. You should call him daddy or dad!" Samantha squated down in front of her son and held his shoulders.Tristan stared at his mom properly scanning her inner thoughts then he glanced at the towering man beside her who was also staring deeply at him. He looked up, Albert looked down, and Samantha had the same level of eyes with him. He shifted his glances at them three times. Then he took a sigh."Mommy, why didn't I get at least one feature from you?" he whined as he narrowed his eyes.Enrique whose thin lips were pursed tight, finally laughed as he turned around. Everyone's attention were shifted to him. He released a fake cough as he put his fist near his mouth."Huh! The weather is nice!" he exclaimed while looking up in the getting dark sky.It's almost six in the evening when they arrived.Isabella nudged his waist hard and he irked in pain. When he turned back around, he met Albert's sneers."Enjoying this hu
"Are you sure you left a puppy in that mansion?"It was Benjamin and he was on the phone with Eve. The latter was in her three bedroom condominium unit, three hours drive from Michaels Mansion."I did and she's under my command!" she replied with a curt."Make sure that puppy licks only your feet, Eve. Once you made a single mistake, we're all going down. Do you understand?" he was disgruntled at her decision."Señior Madrigal, if you don't believe in me, can I just get out of your filthy sleazy grip then?" Eve stressed out while clinging the phone on her mouth."You think you're bold Dr. Garner? Don't you know that I have my eyes on you. I know what you did the other day. I know that you didn't go home to your hometown. You're just staying in your unit buying some time to escape from my grip!" he was crossed about Eve's lies and disobedience.So, he ordered Mateo to look for a man to follow her wherever she went. Weaving a lie to him, that was t
