"Here. They leave here," the lad said and Ana knocked on the door after climbing the staircase. Alice opened the door and Ana's eyes widened as she and Alice stood there frozen. Ana looked at Alice from head to toe. Her appearance and the clothes she was wearing showed that she lived there. "Alice, is that the delivery guy?" came Mrs Morrison's voice from inside but Alice could not reply. "Alice, are you okay? Why are you still standing at the door like you have seen a gho.....," Mrs Morrison said as she headed for the front door but froze when she also came face to face with Ana. "Someone explain what is going on to me," Ana asked still with her hands on her belly which gives her some pain occasionally. "We work here," Mrs Morrison said the first thing that came to mind but Ana will not buy it. "You work here, dressed like this? Stop lying to me," Ana said. "Are you even sick?' she asked. "Lie to you? Why am I even explaining myself to you?" Mrs Morrison began."Mum," Ana said
At Scott's residence, Mr Scott was getting ready to leave for his office. "In a couple of hours, Mr Thatcher would not be a problem any more. We can focus on Aiden," he said. "That is great. We should take care of him before he finds out the truth," Mrs Scott said. In Toronto, Aiden upon arrival boarded a taxi to the hospital whose address Perez sent him. The car stopped in front of the hospital entrance and Aiden got out of the car and headed for the hospital entrance after paying the driver off. Perez saw Aiden coming and he walked towards. "What happened?" Aiden asked upon seeing Perez. "I am not sure. We went to Toronto," Perez began and Aiden frowned. "Ma'am, Mother stays in an expensive apartment in Toronto. I am not sure what happened inside but Ma'am was inside for a long time. She was pushed out of the apartment by her mother. Next, I saw her going down. I rushed to her side and realized she was bleeding," Perez narrated. "Bleeding?" Aiden asked. "Yes, she is in the eme
"What happened?" Marcus asked trying to comfort Amanda who was already crying. "My dad. My dad was in that plane," Amanda said in tears and Marcus's eyes widened. "Calm down, please. Let's wait to hear the news and you will know where your father is. For all you know he may be fine," Marcus comforted and turned the TV volume up. "The Pakistan airport has been hit with a tragic incident. An Airplane that flew in from California just caught fire before passengers onboard could come out of the plane. Information reaching out has it that, some of the passengers onboard include dignitaries from the government who had flown in to help settle the misunderstanding generated by the government policies passed to protect citizens following the September 11th incident. The fire service team, who got here on time to save the situation are currently checking for survivors. Our heart condolences to families whose relatives were on the plane," said the reporter. "My dad, no no no," Amanda cried ge
"Baby mama business. I also heard, he sent Amanda away," Ruth said. "To make things worse, the utility bills have not been paid since Mr Anderson arrived," she added. "What!" Mr Scott exclaimed. "Yes," Ruth said folding her arms across her chest. Mr Scott quickly fetched his phone and tried calling Aiden. The call quickly went to voicemail. He tried multiple times and the result is the same. "Ruth take over the hotel business and let Mr Anderson assist you with the management. It is my company and if Aiden could leave for three days without telling anyone anything then I can also remove him without discussion," Mr Scott said. "I have wanted to give him some grace period but I guess he wants to leave so I will grant him his request," Mr Scott said and Ruth smiled. Ruth knew her father was going to remove Aiden as heir but he wanted to use him for a while but she didn't have the patience to wait. Aiden had taken an emergency leave to fix the issue in his private business but Ruth d
She was led out of the intensive care unit. Marcus was waiting in the corridor. Amanda just hugged Marcus breaking down."He is gone," Amanda said. "I am sorry," Marcus said hugging Amanda as she wept bitterly on his shoulders. The officials that were sent over by the government have equally received the news of Mr Thatcher's passing. They did the paperwork in a couple of hours Mr Thatcher's body was on the way back to California for the burial and Amanda also left with them. The news quickly went viral with every news channel announcing the passing the passing of the senator. "The city of California woke up to a rather devasting news. Mr Christian Thatcher, our senator, passed in the early hours of this morning. This was following the incident of their plane catching fire upon landing at the Pakistan airport. Mr Thatcher embarked on this trip to help settle the misunderstanding arising from the passing of policies by the US government to protect citizens following the September 1
"Mr Harper, kindly get me the file on the property," Aiden said to Mr Harper and he quickly left to get the file while Aiden, Mr Borrison and three others were still standing in front of the company's entrance. "Let's wait for him to return and we can find out together what is happening," Aiden said in a stern voice. Mr Harpter returned in a few minutes with a worried expression. "Sir, I couldn't find them," Mr Harper said. "Mr Scott, you don't have the documents to prove ownership of this building?" Mr Borrison asked but Aidne remained calm. He went into his online drive and pulled the document for them after sending a message to Perez. Mr Borrison looked at the document on Aiden's phone screen. "Well, it is difficult to tell if the document you are showing to me now is authentic. You will need the stamped document presented to you," Mr Borrison said after looking at the document. "So do you have the hard copy of the document you just showed me?" he asked. "Do you have 10 mi
"You are not my son. You can never be my son," Mr Scott said in anger before he could stop himself. "Dad, what did you just say?" Aiden asked. The call came to an abrupt end. Aiden stared at the phone screen and dialled his father's number again but he didn't answer. He understood his father was angry about something but to say, he was not his father is not just an anger statement. Aiden changed his clothes and exited the bedroom. He headed for the front door and grabbed the key cars. He drove in the middle of the night to the family house. It was fifteen minutes past 8 when he arrived. He parked the car and went inside. One of the servants welcomed him and led him to the living room. Aiden found Mrs Scott reading a magazine in the living room. "Good evening, Mum," Aiden greeted. "Aiden, what brings you here at the hour of the night?" Mrs Scott asked unaware of what had transpired between Aiden and her husband, "Mum, am I your son? Are you my mother?" Aiden went straight to the po
"Aiden, I have given you enough chances. I have done my part. Go live your life. You were never a part of this family and your attitude has sold you out. Leave my presence," Mr Scott said and Aiden left with nothing more to say. There was no point defending himself if the man he once called father had already formed his mind about him. Outside the apartment, he sat in the car for a while before bringing the engine to life and driving out of the compound. Aiden was lost in his thoughts as his father's words echoed in his mind. "Why didn't they tell me before, I wasn't a Scott? Why now? Who are my parents even if they are no more?" Aiden thought while driving back home. "Your father was a drunk and your mother a prostitute from a nightclub," the words echoed on his mind repeatedly. Aiden hit the car brakes when a light flashed into his eyes followed by a tyre screeching sound. He stopped the car and looked outside. "Are you stupid? Watch where you are going, idiot," yelled a man
