The charity event part 2

'' Lucy teach your husband some manner, he's becoming too cheeky day by day,'' Olivia retorts giving a disgusted look back at Robin. '' I am well mannered than you,'' Robin added. '' Will you stop embarrassing yourself in front of others Sis Olivia?'' said a voice coming after them. It was Isabella, the wife of Gray. She wore a bright smile on her face as she said that. '' Really, they don't know where they should put a stop to their quarrel,'' Gray snorted walking up to them. '' So what are you quarrelling about again?'' Gray asked them. '' No one's quarrelling it's just that clown-'' Olivia begins to say. '' He's not a clown, you can't insult him that way,'' Luc retorts stepping forward. '' No need to tell us who he is, we know what he is exactly. He's nothing more than a bug who's feeding onto us that's all,'' Isabella added with a smirk. '' Now if you are done we should head over to our seats. The guests are starting to arrive.''

The Charity event p 3

'' There's nothing for both of us to do in such a short time. We should give up,'' Lucy says taking a handful of medicines in her hands. '' Give up? There's no way we can give up so easily. Didn't you promise Grandpa that you will do everything in your power to make this event a success? Then how can you give up in this crucial time?'' asked Robin. After a pause, she replied, '' Yes I did, But there's nothing for us to do in such a short time.'' '' Lucy,'' he called grabbing onto her shoulders making her face him. '' Look at me, Do you want to give up or try your best to make this success. Everything is not over yet. We can keep trying till we run out of time,'' says Robin. Lucy lifts her head to meet his gaze. His eyes had the fire of determination in them. '' But...even if we try our best and fail? Isn't that waste of energy?''. '' There's nothing to waste. Even if we fail we should keep trying till we reach our goal. I have faith that we wil

In the nick of time

?Lucy stands in front of the mic. Then looks at the crowd of people who have gathered here.Then she begins her speech, '' Everyone, I am Lucy Campbell, I very much welcome you for coming here today. I have decided to do my best to make the charity event a success. My grandpa had given me the task of handing out the medicines. I tried my best to do in my power for the sake of the patients who need medicine.'' '' I hope we can hold these kinds of events every year so that the ones who are in need along with the sick ones. The children who don't have anyone to call their own, all of then will be able to feel the kindness of others and receive others help. I want to thank Mr Allen Richard also who arranged this event with us. If it was not for him then we could not have managed to do this. Please give a round of applause for him.'' Mr Richard was smiling at her from his seat. '' She's giving quite a speech isn't she?'' David remarks standing beside Juli

Saving her from being humiliated

It was Robin who arrived there in a big van. He gets off the van and runs to Lucy. '' Sorry to make you wait,'' he said caressing her face. '' You were too late. Did you managed to get what you went to look for?'' she asked with tearful eyes. '' Of course,'' he replied with a smile. '' What's the meaning of all this?'' asked Olivia stepping forward. ''What kind of a stunt is this?'' Julia snorted. '' Can you explain all of this?'' added her grandpa. '' Everyone, There's a reason behind all of this,'' Robin begins to say looking at their faces. '' And what's that?'' asked Gray with a smirk. '' The medicines that were sent from the office Lucy had checked them. All of them had expired that's why I went to get them exchanged in the nick of time,'' explained Robin. '' And how's that possible? You are speaking nonsense,'' retorted Julia. '' Why didn't you check yesterday while packing then?''. '' We somehow missed that, but I managed to get it repla

The real mastermind

'' What do you mean by that Lucy?'' Olivia asked stepping forward. ''What I mean is... if the medicines sent last night were real ones then they had to be replaced by someone on the way. That's why the ones that arrived here are fake. The question is who did this.'' Lucy looked at Julia. She felt agitated by this. '' Hey, why are you looking at me in my direction? Do you think I did this?'' Julia snarled at her. '' It's not like I said you did this. Why are you taking all the blame upon yourself it's not like you,'' Lucy added. '' Exactly, there's no point in you getting angry now. Calm down,'' Olivia tried to calm her down. '' Why are you reacting? They will suspect you. Stay calm,'' Olivia whispered to her. After listening to everything her grandpa said,'' I think we should consult the police in this. They will be able to find the culprit much faster than this. What do you say Burns?''. '' Master I think what you are saying is go

Back on her own feet

'' I think all of this is a plan to slander us. I know it,'' added Julia pointing at Robin and Lucy. '' And what makes you think it is? Do you have any proof?'' Richard added. He had a sour expression on his face. Mr.Campbell was listening to all of them. He decided to step forward. '' Everyone silent, I am the one who shall talk here,'' stated Mr.Campbell rolled his eyes over their faces. He faced Kim Jong. '' Do you have any proof on what you are talking about ?'' asked Mr.Campbell. '' I have the proof,'' added a voice from behind them. They all looked at the source of attraction. It was Chelsa. '' What proof?'' asked Burns. '' Hey, you were not here all these while what kind of a proof do you have?'' '' Gray retorted stepping forward. He was glaring at Chelsa feeling she's betraying him. He could hear his heartbeat as blood was rushing to his head. Chelsa steps forward walking up to them. '' I was not here but I just came to have a peek to h

Meeting Christina again

One month had passed ever since Lucy's grandpa's had given them the proposal of succession. Now they have two months left to prove their worth. It was the month of June now. The season of rain had come again. It was the morning, it had been raining. The first rain of the month. Robin had gotten up early as usual. He was looking at the rain falling, the rain gave him nothing but bad feelings back to him. The scent of wet soil mixing with the memory of his mom gave him unpleasant feelings back. The sound of the falling rain along with the memory from that day. That day when he had gone to the hospital after hearing the news. Just recalling it still gives him shrills. He felt as if his heart was stopping functioning. He placed his hand on his chest to feel whether his heart was working or not. The pain which he felt when he tried to remember about that day made him suffocate. He could not breathe anymore, his breathing grew uneven and

His haunting past

'' Calm down Robin, sit down,'' Christina said to him. The electricity within the cafe comes back again. Robin looks around his surroundings and calms down. The rain was pouring heavily now. Robin's heavy breathing stopped in a while. '' I don't mean it in a bad way, but I think you should go back to meet your dad again. He's waiting for you to go and see him,'' Christina said again. '' I don't see anything wrong with you. Then why are you telling me to go and meet him, Christina?'' Robin's words struck through her heart. '' He didn't care about mom. He didn't care about dad. He didn't care about anyone. Why should I go back to meet him?'. '' But your dad is the one who's helping you in all of these right? Then why are you acting like this with your dad?'' Christina asked again. '' You can get angry at me all you want to. But I think that you need to meet him. Only that can solve all of your problems. Your dad wants to see you. And that's why I

Meeting dad

Robin didn't want to meet his dad after all this. After all these years he had come back to stand before his past again. The past had haunted him for so long. He doesn't want to meet him, he doesn't want to meet the murderer who killed his mom who destroyed his childhood. Arriving there he spotted the butlers standing lined by the side of the entrance waiting to greet him. Christina brought him inside grabbing him by the hand. He could feel all the memories coming back to haunt him once again. '' Welcome back Young master,'' greeted the servants with a smile on their faces. Robin could not stand all of that. He hated these cause he doesn't feel welcome here. The once-forgotten castle is like a house, the familiar faces. There was everything, only except her mom. He spotted the grand picture of his grandpa in the picture all proud and dignified. '' Let's go, Young master. Lord is waiting for you along with Master,'' said Chris. Christina led him

Not a happy family reunion

'' I have a question for you. May I ask?''. '' Yes, please. We don't mind answering any of your questions,'' said his grandpa. Robin looks up and said,'' Have you thought about mom? About what happened to her or how I managed to get by after all those years after you had kicked us out?'' his words struck them like a needle. '' Why are you mixing yourself up with that woman? She and you don't belong to the same class. You are of the higher rank. Who cares about what happened to her? You are my grandson that's what I all care about. She must have kicked the bucket the right way she deserves as a working-class citizen,'' retorted his grandpa. He had a scary expression on his face. '' Your grandpa's right son. You should forget about your mom and all the suffering you had to go through in the past. Your present is your everything so you should worry about that. You should forget about the place you had stayed when you had gone away from this house. That's nothi
