“TTHHHHUUUUDDD”The door fell backwards into the room, stunning not just the occupant but also the people outside.Amanda was stunned as she was unaware of the havoc outside due to the sound proofing effects inside the room; the people outside were stunned due to the outfit or the lack of it on the person inside the room.“Aaahhhh” Amanda screamed as she ran to hide behind the curtain as she could find anything to cover her modesty within her arms reach.However, none of this was Emile’s concern. She ran into the room as soon as the door was pushed open. She glanced around the room and ran towards the bathroom door. She twisted the knob several times without success. She tapped on the door as she called out “Hubby… Hubby… open the door…. Hubby, it’s me … open the door.”“Hubby…...please open the door…... Hubby, it’s me… I am sorry I am late…. Please…. Hubby, please open the door.”“Hubby….”Emile’s sob woke the men who were stunned outside. They all rushed in at the same time.“Step as
The ambulance sped all the way to hospital while Neil, Master, Bai-Min and Lai-Li raced against time to hold on to what little life was remaining in Chris; He had already fallen into a deep sleep. Although Neil’s hands didn’t stop what he needed to do, he didn’t forget to pass a voice message to Adrian asking him to gather as many people as possible who are willing to donate and are either AB-ve, O-ve, A-ve or B-ve to the operation theatre on the 3rd floor of emergency department of Good Samaritan Hospital.At the hospital, everything was organized and ready for them; however much to the surprise of all the staff who were scrubbed and ready, Neil requested everyone to be sent out except for Chiara and a group of nurses who were responsible for blood collection. Once everyone was cleared out, Master placed a wooden case that housed more than a dozen pale green coloured small worms on the trolley next to the operating table that Chris was on. Neil, Bai-Min and Lai-Li concentrated on pla
Neil walked back into the theatre and looked at the two people who looked like they were sleeping peacefully and sighed ‘Why do you always have to make trouble for me in pairs? Wonder if the hospital beds are more comfortable? Should I order one for their home so that I can continue being lazy?’He walked out of the inner theatre room and met Chiara who was just returning after ensuring the remaining packs were sent without compromising quality.“Chief, how is my boss?” Chiara asked anxiously as she saw Neil. She was too anxious to notice Neil’s carefree expression.“I am fine.” Neil shrugged, his lips curling up in mischief at an angle not visible to Chiara.“Not you… my boss…” Chiara repeated anxiously as she tugged his arm.“I am your boss.”“No. You are chief. My boss is Christopher Walter.” Chiara pouted stubbornly.Neil wanted to continue teasing her but one of the attenders came over “Dr Livingston, the relatives of the two patients are waiting anxiously. They want to know if th
The Walters followed Adam's lead and walked away, one after the other, although their back weren't as proud and straight as they normally were. How could they lift their heads in good conscience when they were the culprits behind their little brother's current plight? Even though they were not directly involved how could they wash themselves of the responsibility of their little brother being on the verge of death?How could their little brother who was otherwise invincible be in such a pathetic plight if they hadn’t forced him with the shackles of relationship to forgive their mother? No one spoke, a gloomy aura surrounded them as they walked out of the hospital.No one saw Elizabeth who was leaning against the pillar and watching the theatre door, tears streaming down her cheeks. She had been standing in the same position since she arrived which was shortly after Night Wing and the rest bought Emile. She never expected her son to want to embrace death rather than relieving the effect
“Son, we will leave everything here to you and head back.” Agatha came forward to comfort Neil “The kids are alone with the nannies at the cottage. Message us when they wake up and we will come with the kids.”“I better come with you.” Night Wing was about to walk forward when Henry pulled him back by the collar.“Don’t run back and forth. Everyone knows that you will run back the minute we enter the door.” Henry’s lips curled in mockery “We know the way home. You stay and guard your precious Boss.”“Errr…. Actually…” Night Wing scratched the back of his head in embarrassment “I will come with you and explain on the way.” He didn’t want to speak while they were out and about. He knew, the walls had ears.”“Go on… We are here.” Neil put his arms around Adrian’s shoulders as he pushed Night Wing with the other hand.No one spoke as they walked out of the hospital; Elizabeth stood still behind the pillar, too scared to move. She had heard everything Neil said and regretted even more…. thi
While the Burkes relaxed and rested at Chris’s villa, things were neither relaxed nor restful at the Walter main residence.Adam sat at his customary seat with his sons (in laws) and daughters (in laws) around him. He didn’t have his usual calm and amiable aura but was enveloped in a gloomy aura. The kids with exception of Marcus, Miles, Penny and Vincent were all sent back to their individual villas along with their nannies. No one made a fuss, even the youngest, Mayne knew that something was not right with the adults.“Dad, what are you going to do?” Mark decided to address the elephant in the room while everyone shifted uncomfortably in their chairs.“Family law.” Adam pursed his lips; he didn’t want to…. God knew he didn’t… this was the woman he loved with all his heart… but there were some things that couldn’t be forgiven.No one spoke or rather dared to; they were all feeling conflicted with mixed feelings. While none of them supported Elizabeth’s actions, neither could they diso
Who would believe if someone told them that one sleep could change the economic landscape of a country? Who would believe if someone told them that one sleep could change the lives of so many people?The next day, the city woke up to the shocking news of Caldwell’s declaring bankruptcy and the company being sealed as it couldn’t even be sold for scraps; comparatively Holtz fared better. They packed and left the country, selling all the company shares for one euro. How they kept their lives? How else, other than selling their soul to the devil by signing an unfair treaty with Evergreen Heights to never set foot in the country for trade and to pay 30% of business revenue generated anywhere in the world. To them, it was a best outcome, the alternative being, to cease to exist!Amanda woke up from what she thought was a nightmare only to realize that it wasn’t a nightmare at all but her reality. She sat up holding her aching head as the night’s events came flooding. She covered her mouth
“Is everything alright?”“Madam, we are finished.” The young secretary breathed in despair as she recounted everything at happened.Amanda decided to keep the phone as she didn’t have one currently; she organized a taxi to pick her up from the rear end of the joint and checked her bank account to make sure she had enough to pay the taxi driver. To her shock, none of her accounts had a figure greater than 0 “What??? What is going on?”“Why is this happening to me?” Amanda swept all the bottles that were left on the table as she screamed maniacally. She naturally forgot the men in the room until she felt a few pairs of lewd eyes staring at her, their mouths drooling as they regurgitated the high voltage scenes from last night. They were all woken up by her screaming; she cursed herself inwardly as she thought about her escape plan.“Let’s go another round, a keepsake for the road before we part ways.” One of the men laughed vulgarly as he stood up and moved closer to her. However, befor
