They all exchanged glances and Jace stood up from where he was seated and walked closer to Richard, "what do you mean Richard?" Rather than answer Jace Hudson, Richard's bottled temper flared up and he hit Jace badly in his belly. The latter staggered backwards and Richard hit him badly again on his face. Chase got furious and stood up, hitting Richard back in his belly, it was his turn to stagger backwards. Richard spat out blood and Jace's lips were bleeding as he also spat out blood. Genesis quickly came to the middle and held Richard. He was the one who started the fight and she needs to hold him first. But what surprised her was that Jace didn't fight back. Perhaps Richard would have kept dishing his blows if Chase hadn't stood up in his brother's defence. The two men glared at each other, both spitting out blood. "Bastard, you are the reason why Arianna is in there. We can't say for sure if she would make it or not. And you dare to show your inhumane face
Everyone stood up quickly and drew closer to Richard. His eyes went red. Genesis' tears were already running down her cheeks. "No, doctor, she can't die. Use the chest compressor, resuscitate her, do anything you can. In fact I'm stepping in" Richard pleaded. He placed his hands down and glanced at the theatre. "What happened? Is Arianna fine?" Jace demanded. Genesis pulled Richard by his upper arm and was sobbing profusely "Richard save Arianna's life" she sobbed. Richard held Genesis and kissed her temple. "Arianna is.." he choked. He couldn't bring himself to complete it. "Don't you dare say that last word, Richard" Genesis implored. Richard dragged her to Chase and said "Take care of my girl" and dashed into the theatre. He was not dressed for theatre work but got in and wore the Available one at the entrance and got in. He took the chest compressor from the head surgeon. At this time, he had stilled his heart. He wasn't looking at her from the persp
"Let's keep a proper relationship with each other, if not for anyone's sake, for Arianna's sake please" Chase declared, his gaze fixed on Richard. He was obviously referring to him. "I don't keep relationships with toxic people. Everyone get the hell out, I want my patient to rest" Richard insisted. "I don't want you to be Arianna's doctor anymore. You get out and I will have another doctor take over from you" Jace replied, his gaze becoming cold as he stares at Richard. "I dare you, Jace Hudson and I will get Arianna out of this hospital and you won't get access to her anymore" Richard retorted. "It's enough please, everyone. Why are you both quarrelling about it? Is it because of Arianna or there's another underlying reason you are not telling us? Arianna is special to everyone in our different ways. She's my bestie and childhood friend. She's your friend for a few years Richard and you are the one who stood by her when Eli was born. But she's Jace's woman
Eduardo just stood transfixed. She's the mother of the young master? She's probably the woman the boss was searching for in Z-City for a few years. This news came to him like a shock. But then,a faint smile appeared on his lips. He hoped a chemistry would grow between them when all of these are over. Emily Jason placed the remote down and hissed between gritted teeth. She is not interested in the news anymore. Why wouldn't the various channels find proper news for them rather than feeding them with such news? "Arianna is too forward. I know she did it deliberately to find a convenient excuse to avoid her engagement to the Keyamo family eldest master" Emily stuttered. What a smart woman. But no matter how much she pretends to escape her marriage to the rascal, she will eventually get married to him, except she dies. "What gave her the nerves to try protecting Jace Hudson? Is she stronger than him or does she have the power and influence he has?" Elisa bellowed.
Adrian Delmark is a two time senator of Z-City. He is an honest and sincere man but highly Private. After his second tenure elapsed as a senator, he left Z-City and went for holiday for three years in Spain. His only son was then rounding up his medical school and went to work as a housemaster in X-City. He was through with his program and immediately got hired by the hospital. It was only when Adrian and his wife Jane decided to return to Z-City did Richard resign and came to join them working as a consultant in general medicine at the Hudson's hospital. "My son," Adrian called, standing at the penultimate stair and beaming with a megawatt smile. His hands in his pants pocket and he glared at his beautiful wife and son. Adrian Delmark is a 52 years old man with a huge physique. He had a mix of gray and black hair on his head but looked strong and fitted like a man who had at a time been a great sportsman. He has twinkling eyes and faint dimples when he smiles. H
Richard nodded and sat properly. He glared at his parents. They are a family of three but the love that bound them together is stronger than the strongest cord ever. Nothing is going to take place without their collective decision. His parents are definitely going to take a decision or embark on a mission and need to get his consent and opinion. "I have discussed with your mom already and she already supported my idea. I need your consent as well. You are my first family and the most important people in my life" Adrian regarded. "You still haven't told me anything yet. What do you need my opinion on?" Richard asked, already yawning and feeling exhausted from the day's experience and work. "I know Richard. I am intending to run for the office of the prime minister" Adrian broke the news to his son. He glared at Richard, waiting for what his reactions would be. Richard's lips parted and he couldn't help but smiled broadly. He didn't say anything but was happy. H
"I will interrogate the assassin that was captured. But the police have with them, the other one shot. I hope they get his statement before he dies. But for now, nothing yet" He would so much torture the rascal that he would prefer death to life. He would make him cough out the truth except he is not surnamed Hudson. The two brothers ended their conversation and Jace sighed audibly. He went to take a bath for the third time that night, if perhaps, he would be able to get some sleep. Next morning, before dawn, his bodyguard called him and told him the scoundrel was awake. He got his robe on and used the underground pathway to slide into the basement. His bodyguards surrounded him and the light was turned on. He saw the haggard looking man, his face with patches of dried blood, glaring at him with hostility. No matter what happened, they had sworn the oath of secrecy, he would rather die than expose the identity of their clients. Nothing on earth is going to make
"You fucked his girlfriend and got her pregnant. He was taking revenge on you" he blurted amidst pain. He was sighing in pain and the thoughts of going through the same pain for another three times sent a cold shiver down his spine. Arianna! Jace's mind went to her. She was someone else's woman and he slept with her and got her pregnant with Eli. So that is it. Perhaps he was right to be suspicious of her then. "Who is he?" Jace demanded. Already feeling disappointed about Arianna. He asked her the day he met her in his office and she said she has no boyfriend,no fiance and is not married. So she was someone else's woman after all. He needs to know more about her and perhaps shouldn't think she's really innocent as he now thought. The assassin was quiet, he wouldn't say anything else. He was frolicking with someone else's woman and expected not to get murdered? "Since he doesn't want to say who the fellow's name is, continue with the bloody surgery. And when yo
