“Alright. I am calling from Brooklyn Street. We found a set of twins by the roadside who had a picture of you and a lady in their pockets, along with your phone number. Are these your children?” The lady asked and Damien felt his heart seize.

“Daddy? Is that you?” Adrian’s tiny voice said through the phone and a tear immediately dropped from Damien’s eyes.

He was happy that his children had been found but at the same time he was furious that they were abandoned on a street all by themselves.

“Harriet. Is there a woman with them?” He asked immediately, crossing his fingers as he hoped that his ex-wife would also be with them.

“No, sir. I found them sitting all by themselves around the corner. Please get here as fast as you can.” She replied. Damien’s happiness was cut short upon hearing that Harriett had still not been found.

Now, he was completely sure that it was Evelyn’s doing because she knew how much he loved his children.

Damien hit his steering wheel angrily and was about i

    An hour later, Eric sent the coordinates he got from the details Damien sent to him earlier. It was already 5:30 in evening but that wasn’t going to stop Damien from going to rescue his wife. He planned on keeping to his word on not letting her spend a night there. “I’ll go first. You can come with the police.” He said to Eric over the phone who was also preparing himself for the rescue mission. Damien drove down town like a madman as he followed the GPS location on his car. In less than twenty minutes, the car slowed down as the GPS showed that he had arrived at his destination. When he looked outside, he realized that it was an abandoned building. How cliché! Taking his phone out of his pocket, he failed Eric’s number and on the second ring, he picked up. “What’s up?” Eric asked. “I’m in front of the building. Come quickly.” He said and ended the call without giving Eric a chance to reply. Accessing his surrounding, he noticed that the neighborhood was anything but safe with

    Harriet ran with the nurses who were carrying Damien’s body out of the building, her legs moving swiftly even though her mind was completely blank. Uncontrollable tears kept falling from her eyes as she stared at Damien’s body which was already covered with blood. Even after doing her best to stop the bleeding at the building, it didn’t work as it kept gushing out nonstop. She was scared that he would die as he had been shot really close to his heart. She joined the nurses in the ambulance and for the first time in a long time, Harriett started muttering prayers to God. The nurses began the process of stopping the bleeding while they were still in the ambulance, driving at an impossible speed to the hospital.They knew that Damien Daniels was a VIP patient and his life had to be saved. Eric who had come with the police, was in a state of confusion. He didn’t know if it would be a wise idea to call his parents. But then, it’s Damien Daniels, one of the most popular men in New York.

    Evelyn quickly packed her things, preparing to leave her house as the police could come to get her at any minute. She needed to hide for a few days. After the call ended, it dawned on her that it was Damien’s friend, Eric who had used the kidnapper’s phone to give her a call. “Fuck!” She screamed as she threw her jewelries into a box. Evelyn’s frustration was killing her. She had no idea what had happened but from the phone call, she knew that the kidnapper had been arrested. If only she didn’t call his line.. She thought about calling Damien but after much thought, she realized that it would be stupid to call him as he was probably aware of the situation. Could this really be the end for her? * * It had been one week since the incident and Damien was still in a coma. Harriett had been spending most of her time in the hospital, only going home to check up on her children and get change of clothes. Thomas Daniels had successfully managed to keep the news of Damien’s incident

    “What are you doing?” Harriett looked at Damien suspiciously as she entered the hospital room. Eric had been in for so long that she was starting to feel uneasy so, she decided to check in on them. When walked in, she saw Damien trying to get off the bed while Eric was trying to remove the IV from his hand. As soon as both men saw her, they immediately paused, both looking like children who had been caught stealing ice cream from the fridge.“Harriett..” Damien spoke up, his voice cracking as he wondered if she had heard their conversation. He accessed her face just to be sure and from the look on it, he concluded that she didn't.“Do not ‘ Harriett ’ me. What do the both of you grown men think you are doing?” She walked up to the both of them with her hands on her waist like she was their parent.“Well… I was just checking this cool thing out.. I have no idea what he was doing.” Eric immediately defended, throwing his hands up in the air. Damien turned to his friend and raised a brow,

    “Have you finally gone mad, Beth?” Her partner asked with his brows creased. “Why would Tony ever think of supporting you? You kidnapped his lover, remember? The man probably wants to kill you.” He said but Evelyn shook her head. “He hates me, that’s for sure. But, he hates the idea of not being with Harriet more.” She smirked evilly. “The man is in love with Harriet and will do anything to be with her. That, my love is what I plan on using.” She said and things were finally starting to make sense to him. “Don’t tell me your plan is to-” “You’re finally thinking!” She patted his head and let out a loud laughter. “My plan is pretty simple. He wants Harriett, I want Damien… his wealth and name to be precise but, you know what I mean. We both want the same thing so why not team up and get what we both want. It might take some time but, I’m sure he’ll come around.” She finished up with a kiss on his lips and danced happily to her room. Little did she know that Tony was the same man

    “You have no say in this, Damien. You’re staying with us until you’re fully recovered and that’s final.” Stacy said. The doctors had discharged Damien from the hospital, although he still had a bandage wrapped around his chest because of his wound. No matter how much Harriett wanted him to stay until his wound was full healed, the man wouldn’t listen as his body itched to get back to work. Damien knew that there was no need fighting with his mother on the topic as her mind had already been made up. But, an idea came to his mind. “Fine. I’ll come with you… on one condition.” He said with a corky smile as his eyes drifted to Harriett who was standing by the side. “Harriett spends the weekend with the kids.” He said, secretly crossing his fingers and praying that she would agree. “W-what?” Harriett’s eyes widened and her cheeks reddened. She couldn’t imagine spending the weekend with Damien and his family. It would bring back old memories that she had worked so hard to forget. “I-I

    When Damien heard Harriett say those words at the breakfast table, his heart jumped out of pure excitement. He was happy that she was finally beginning to let go of the past. All he needed now was to get her forgiveness and win her trust. “I thought about what room you’d sleep in and I decided to give you a separate room from the kids. That way, we won’t invade your privacy because we certainly won’t leave our grandkids for a single minute.” Stacy said once they were done with the breakfast. Her first thought was for Harriet and Damien to share a room but her husband, Thomas made her realize that she was moving too fast. Even though the two had children together, they weren’t married and their relationship needed a lot of patching up. “Thank you, Mother. They are your grandchildren. You can spend as much time as you want with them.” She laughed. “Who wants to go out with Daddy today?” Damien asked and little Adrian immediately started jumping happily on his seat, clapping his hands

    “Adrian. I thought you were out of the country.” Harriett smiled awkwardly. She could sense the tension between the brothers and a part of her knew that she was the cause. “I returned an hour ago. I was missing my family.” Adrian replied with a smirk, shifting his gaze to Damien who was staring at him like he wanted nothing more than to pounce on him. “I finally get to meet my namesake. Should I just call you Adrian Junior? You already look so much like me.” Adrian said, going over to Harriett. He stretched his hands out to little Adrian but he hid himself in his mother’s neck instead.He wasn't wrong. Little Adrian did share a resemblance with him but that was only because he was Damien's brother. “He doesn’t know who you are, brother. Don’t push your luck. Also, my son looks nothing like you.” Damien replied with gritted teeth. The air suddenly got thick and the tension between the two brothers was starting to make the environment unbearable for the others present. “Why don’t yo

    As the party continued, Tony mingled with some of the people he was familiar with. He also made sure that Lily was by his side at all times.“Who is this beautiful lady, Tony?” Various people asked and he gave them the same response which still came as a shock to all of them.As the conversation with some of Tony’s business partners got more intense, Lily decided to leave them for a bit.“I’ll be in the restroom for a bit.” She whispered to Tony who gave a brief nod. His eyes followed her until she disappeared, making sure no one followed her into the restroom.As she walked, she couldn’t help but admire the hallway that led to the restroom. It had been decorated beautifully with flowers as though it was a part of the party hall.Mehdi might be a terrible person but he had good taste.She entered the restroom and to her relief, it was empty. She washed her hands for some relief and leaned on the wall, hoping to give Tony and his friends some time to finish up their conversation.A few

    “She’s my girlfriend,” Tony announced with his arms wrapped around Lily and his expression stern. Lily’s eyes widened but she quickly composed herself as she didn’t want to be noticed by the reporters who were watching them like a hawk. After Tony’s big reveal, the reporters erupted into chaos and they began raining questions on Tony, each of them eager to know how and when he got a girlfriend because most of the people in the country were starting to think he was gay or just hated women. There was a time he was spotted in public with Daisy and photos started circulating online as people began to spread rumors about him having a child. They also went on the search for who the mystery woman might be and at that time, he was close friends with Harriet who already had two children and was always around him. So, to avoid getting her in trouble, he quickly denied the accusations and revealed that Daisy was his niece, bringing Rachael as proof. “How long have you known her for, Dr Martin

    “Oliver? What the fuck does he want with you?” Tony asked, his expression hardening as he saw the texts on Lily’s phone.“Oh, it’s nothing. He’s just checking up on me since he didn’t see me at work. I have been helping him out at the hospital.” Lily explained innocently.“Can I see?” Tony asked and Lily freely handed him her phone for him to go through their texts.As Tony read through the messages, he realized that Oliver had been keeping tabs on Lily without her knowing. He used normal questions that wouldn’t look fishy to keep track of her activities and Lily who was as naive as a child kept giving him the information he needed.“What’s wrong?” Lily asked when she saw the angry look on Tony’s face. She wondered what he had seen on her phone that made him angry.“This Oliver guy. I have a feeling that there’s more to him. You need to be careful around him.” Tony warned and Lily frowned, taking her phone and pocketing it.“Don’t tell me you’re jealous of him, Tony.” Lily sighed. “We

    Three Days Later.Lily rolled over to hit the snooze button on her phone as the alarm pierced through her sleep.“Five more minutes..” She hummed like a five-year-old.Just as she was about drifting off to sleep she suddenly remembered that she had to be at the hospital.“Shit!” She exclaimed and jumped off the bed. When she checked her phone, she saw that it was a few minutes past eight which meant that she had less than an hour to prepare for work.She quickly jumped into the shower and in a few minutes, she was out. Once she was all dressed up, she hurried downstairs to meet with Tony who was expected to be waiting for her.When she arrived at the living room, she found Tony sitting on a sofa with Rachael both laughing at a joke that was cracked by him.Sensing a presence behind, Tony turned and found Lily staring at them with curiosity written all over her face.“Good morning, Lily.” Tony greeted with a smile.“Morning, Tony. Morning, Rachael.” She greeted. “Why didn't you wake me

    Lily sat at her desk, going through the files for the patients she would be sending handling. When she finished, she grabbed her tools and headed to the pediatric ward.As she walked into the brightly colored room, she spotted a little girl who didn’t look anything above six seated on her bed with a stuffed bunny clutched to her chest.She had a beanie on her head to cover her baldness as she had lost most of her hair to cancer but despite her frail frame and the IV connected to her arm, her eyes sparkled with warmth and happiness.“Good morning, my darling.” Lily greeted with a warm smile as she approached her bedside. “How are you feeling today?” Lily asked, checking her temperature.The girl looked up and smiled brightly, her eyes shining with excitement. “I am okay, Nurse Lily. They served me my favorite today! Chocolate pudding!!” She squealed and Lily chuckled.“You like chocolate pudding more than your medicines, don’t you?” Lily asked, touching her cheeks playfully.“Yes!

    “This is about Lily, isn’t it?” Rachael asked with her brows raised. “Yes, it is.” Tony agreed, taking his hands up. “You know how she feels about you not speaking to her right?” He asked and Rachael’s expression shifted to sadness. “I’ll be honest with you, Tony. I think I was too harsh on her. I have been feeling this way for a while but I do not know how to apologize to her. I fear I might have hurt her badly. She avoids me these days and I can see fear in her eyes whenever we meet.” Racheal lamented with a pained expression. Tony let out a sigh of relief and a light smile. He was glad that Rachael was thinking that way. “All you have to do is let her know that you are not upset with her and you want things to return to how they were.” He said. “The good part is, you have the opportunity to do that today.” He smiled. Before he heard her speak, he was going to tell her what Lily’s surprise was and plead with her not to make Lily feel bad but now, he planned on letting Lily do he

    A smirk appeared on Tony’s face as he stared at the email from the office of Mehdi King. It seemed like God was on his side. The timing was perfect. Ever since he found out about him being the leader of the SNAKERS, he had wanted an opportunity to meet him and this had just been given to him on a platter of gold. He was going to take Lily as his plus one since it would be her first time attending an event with him by her side. To Tony, it was a way of announcing her to the world as his partner as well as preparing her for the life ahead. He quickly made his way upstairs and placed a light knock on Lily’s door. A few seconds later, she heard the door click and it opened to reveal Lily with a towel tied tightly around her chest. Her hair and some part of her body were slightly wet and he understood that she had just got out of the shower. Even though he had made a promise not to think of anything sexual around her, his eyes and body seemed to have a mind of their own. It was to

    “She is all by herself, boss. This is the perfect time to take her. Give us the order and consider it done.” One of the men said into the phone with his eyes still glued to Lily as she headed back to the hospital on foot.A sigh was heard from the line, a sign of hesitation from Louis and one of the men concluded that Louis wouldn’t be able to give the order since Lily was his ex-girlfriend. So, he gave a sign to the man who was on the call with him, telling him to go ahead with the initial plan regardless of what Louis instructs.“What is your conclusion, boss?” The man asked, hoping Louis would go ahead with the plan but, there was still hesitation from him so, they decided to end the call and kidnap Lily before she was completely out of sight.They left their hiding place and began approaching Lily but just as they were about to get close to her, Tony came out of nowhere and wrapped his hands around her, oblivious to what was about to happen. The men immediately took a U-turn and r

    “Also, the man she is with now is Tony Martinez, the owner of TM Hospital.”At the mention of Tony’s name, a frown appeared on Mehdi’s face as he visibly tensed up. “Tony Martinez?” He asked again to be sure Louis didn’t make a mistake.“Are you sure?”“Yes, Draco. I have seen him in person myself.” Louis replied and Mehdi gritted his teeth in anger.Tony was no stranger to him. He had received a lot of donations from Tony and had even given his donations to Tony’s hospital. He had exchanged pleasantries with him at various events, parties, and award ceremonies so, he knew that Tony was a patriotic citizen who frowned at corruption.If Louis’s girlfriend opens her mouth and reveals his secret to Tony, he is sure he and his gang will be done for.Draco let out a long sigh, his face hardening as he processed the information he had just received. “I know Tony Martinez alright. We’ve met a few times. Events, awards, parties… and I can tell you this, he is a fucking poster boy for patrioti
