"You don't think that's it right? They can't be selling their babies outright?""You said it yourself doc, I can't put it past with the things going on here,""Oh God no, so does that mean the moms that abandon their babies close to the hospital do not want to sell their baby? does this mean they might have been forced into doing it?"She asked, she really shouldn't be thinking these things, babies are precious no mother would give her baby up except she can't help it."We can't jump to conclusions yet Ruby, I will make some inquiries even though talking with the locals doesn't help, they keep to themselves so much,""Yeah, even the women too, they hardly say anything, okay some can't speak English but the ones that can aren't talking either as if something or someone is controlling them.""If this is it, then we are in a lot more than we might have bargained for, this place is not safe and you should warn your team, sticking together would help us more, though I doubt they will do an
Liam sat staring at his system, waiting for his brother-in-law to pick up, he choose to do a video call because he wanted to be face to face with him, the last few days has been regular, pretty normal and there was nothing out of the ordinary, he spent most of his day at the hospital helping out as much as he can and then, he comes back home with baby Kristen who was growing attached to him as the days goes, he was still in the lookout for her mom but so far there hasn't been any positive response, not like he wanted to give her up, he just wanted to know why she felt it was okay to abandon her baby but then last night happened and now he had more to do, he needed to make sure he can get to the root of everything happening so that what Ruby witnessed the night before won't happen again.After the incident with Ruby, he decided to tell his brother-in-law what he had found out so far, there was no need to keep prolonging things, he needed the island to be investigated as soon as possibl
"Yes, what's going on over there? Anything we can use?""No, nothing much yet, but I at least know that they meet once in a while though not consistent also there is a boss but I don't think he is on the island, plus the people on the island aren't talking, they barely say anything, but I will still keep trying, if there is going to be a nice as we suspected, I don't think it will happen this month, I will send over everything I have so that you can take a look.Liam explained wondering if he should tell him about the incident that happened the night before or just let it slide, Luca was staring at him expectantly."Anything else Liam?""Yeah, one of the doctors here on voluntary services witness someone being killed last night, I am thinking it's one of the gang members and they killed him over a misunderstanding,"Liam revealed."I didn't know there were doctors volunteering there, where is she now?""At the clinic, she was going home late last night when it happened,"Liam replied.
Ruby decided to leave the hospital early since she didn't have anything to do, she did her rounds and had given out instructions to the ones doing night duty and decided to go home to the apartment before it gets late, even though she knew the possibility of what happened the night before repeating itself, she didn't want to take any chances, she left the hospital by three pm in the afternoon and decided to stop by the supermarket to get some of the things she knew Kristen needed, there wasn't much that she needed since Liam was an attentive father and always made sure she had everything she needed, Ruby didn't suspect anymore that Liam was Kristen's father and she respected him for taking responsibility of her, that goes a long way to tell that Liam was a good man and Kristen who might she say loves Liam alot was lucky her mom made the right choice for her, no one else would have taken care of her like Liam did, not even Ruby herself, she didn't know how to handle children other than
She knew she had to stop him or things might get awkward between them but she couldn't pull away even though that's what her common sense told her, her stupid heart refused to follow through and he got so close that their nose was almost touching."Ruby,"He whispered, she could feel his breath against her lips, stop him, she thought but she didn't follow through, just stood there waiting for the moment their lips will collide, her heartbeat increasing with every moment, just when she thought it would happen, Kristen yelled, breaking them both apart in extent, Liam walked back staring at her, they stood in silence for, Kristen yelled again and Ruby turned her attention to her, she started crying more."Liam don't stand there come over here and hold her while I make her formula,"She said to Liam who was still standing in silence."Liam?!"She called again."Sorry, what did you say?""Come and hold your daughter so that I can make her food,"She repeated walking up to him and giving he
Liam sat in Ruby's office not doing anything but he refused to return home until she was done, they have been on it for over two hours now and the doctors and nurses were all anxious, he could tell by their constant moving up and down, running in and out of the delivery room, Shouting out orders to each other, he couldn't stand the commotion anymore and decided to wait for Ruby in her office, baby Kristen was sleeping peacefully in the makeshift bed Ruby provided on their arrival, so much happened within the last twenty-four hours that he couldn't keep up, but the icing on the cake was when he almost kissed Ruby, he didn't know what he had been thinking to want to kiss her, he knew he liked her a lot but as friends, he wasn't ready for a relationship yet and even if he wants to, Ruby wasn't ready, he kind of felt stupid for his advances and had meant his apology until she had made him want to do it again, even the universe knew it was all wrong.For one, he wasn't ready to settle down
"Doc? Doctor!!"Ruby heard waking up from sleep, she rubbed her eyes to push sleep off, and saw Sara standing in front of her with panic written over her face, Ruby got up immediately, she didn't know when she had fallen asleep, she was only going to rest her head but ended up sleeping off."What Sara? Is Annette okay?"She asked picking up her coat."No, she is losing too much blood and it is worrying,""Oh my God, I thought she wasn't bleeding anymore,"She said as they both walked hurriedly out of her office towards the labor ward where Annette was, she had opted not to move her in case there is an emergency, now she was glad she did, she opened the door and rushed to her bedside, she looked so strength-less."Annette are you okay?""No,"That was all the woman said."Sara, get a PCV test done,"She instructed checking her vitals."I already sent the blood over and it will be here soon,"Sara responded."Okay, did you tell them to do a cross-match just in case she needs to be trans
Ruby waited patiently for Richard to take his call, she was going to give him a piece of her mind and made sure he knows that she wasn't going to let him take what belongs to her, not anymore, he has done a lot of damage already and she wasn't going to let him do anything to her again."Hello?""Richard, it's Ruby,"She said trying to control her anger, there was no use letting him get to her."Oh, Ruby, I am guessing you saw the letter from the court already,"He asked laughing, she wanted to go over to where he was and wipe those laughter off his face, but unfortunately, she was far away in Cacko."I didn't see the letter per se, I got a call from my lawyer, I am not in the city,""Ahha, okay then, all you have to do is tell your lawyer to hand the papers over and we will be done for good,"The stupid man said and Ruby felt her control slowly slipping away, he was talking nonsense so comfortably."You must be crazy, no skip that, I know you are crazy,""What do you mean by that Ruby
