Enzo's POV
I didn't waste any more time and immediately went outside the Gomez Robotics while carefully carrying the full blooded Aiden in my arms. Everyone in the company was getting chaotic due to the unexpected incident happened in the middle of the project's launch. It was such a perfect time to see the newly arrived rescuers the moment I reached outside. They helped me to lay Aiden on the gurney bed while making sure that we're adding no harm or pain to his condition. Chairman and I stepped inside the ambulance to accompany my boss.
"Don't panic," he reminded me as if nothing serious was happening at the moment. There's no even a single emotion plastered on his face which leave me frightened. Are they this immune to this kind of incident that it didn't even flinch them?
On pins and needles. "What do you mean by don't panic? Chairman, your grandson's life is at stake, if you're not aware!" because of perturbation, I didn't notice my voice su
It's ten in the evening when I finally got home. The first person showed up in the doorway was my annoying sister."Oh, what are you doing here?" she asked in confusion as she opened the door for me. She thought I am going to stay at my boss' house."Ah, I'll tell you tomorrow, I am so fed up with the happenings this day and all I want is to regen through soundly rest. Anyway, where's mom?" I am busy taking my shoes off when I asked her where is our lovely mother."She's already sleeping. And you, I have cried a lot of tears this morning knowing you'll not stay here and yet look who's here?" she rolled her eyes mocking me before she headed the sofa and sat down."Did I even tell you to cry for my departure, didn't I?" I backfired but she just tsked in submission.I was about to go upstairs to have my rest when Lira suddenly tapped the space beside her thrice whilst showing no emotions."Sit down here and we'll talk about something." She made
It was past five in the afternoon when I decided to leave the main laboratory. This day really had my mind drained with loads of works. I really want to give myself a rest it deserves."Is Enzo really need to leave now?" Aiden 2.3 inquired when he saw me packing and cleaning my things on the table as I am already preparing myself to go home.It was such a relief to meet the end of my work for today's task. I sat on the same chair for nearly eight hours straight and it was really draining and tiresome though I am not that moving a lot.In spite of the tiring work, it was still a beautiful and satisfying day. I worked through the chips and I could proudly say that the whole process went smoothly and quite swift with the help of this metal man beside me. He really got the big portion of the whole process due to his advanced intelligence. Thanks to the inventor, he really created a breakthrough-worthy invention that world would surely love."Yeah," I answered
Some employees were secretly looking at us especially me who was still on the floor while lividly staring a CK. After a couple of minutes being on the cold tile, there was this one man behind me who offered a help to get me up. It was Janus."Please don't mind, Sir CK. Just ignore his stupidity. He really is a ball of craziness. He's not even worth of your curse so better off not minding him." Janus whispered to my ear while carefully helping me to stand up."Janus, teach that shameless man a lesson! He seems like he doesn't know who I am for him to rude me aroundㅡ" he wasn't able to finish his tempering line when the door to Chairman's office opened.A moment of silence engulfed us until Chairman Alberto broke it with his casual yet intimidating voice."Oh, so who do you think you are, CK?" the Chairman asked in monotone yet sarcastic voice while standing before his grandson.He looked at me first before glancing at Sir CK."You know, what
Past eleven in the morning when I decided to go back in the main laboratory to check on Aiden 2.3 and also to work on the chip. I find it more convenient working in the main laboratory because I have no worries in my head such as someone peeking at my work or someone's getting an idea to what I am doing which I was highly prohibited to spill information from other people aside the Chairman.Amidst the travel going to the main laboratory when I talk to Janus whose whole attention was laid on the road. He was deafeningly quiet since we left Gomez Robotics."Janus, why is it seems like you are very close to the Chairman?" I asked out of nowhere while I am profoundly settled at the back and looking at him in the rear view mirror."Yeah, to be honest, I've been working with the Gomez family since Aiden was a child. I also became one of his babysitter and a driver as well that is why I am very close to them. They are like a family to me already that I can't afford to
CK's POV C K I was insipidly sitting on the couch while looking at Aiden who's unconsciously lying in the hospital bed. It has been days since he was admitted here and still showing no implications yet a sign of waking up from long sleep. I hope this time my wish will be granted—hope you find your peace in death and will never go back again. "Chairman, what's your plan?" I asked authoritatively while freshly sitting down on the couch as if nobody's in the hospital hoping for his life to get back. "What do you mean?" he questioned back and seemed emotionless looking at Aiden. "Obviously, my younger brother is on his way to death
"According to his medical records, Chairman Gomez was showing implications in his heart..." The whole conference hall fell into deep silence as we heard the controversial opening statement of Mr. Harren, who said that the chairman had been diagnosed with some sort of heart disease. We were so shocked in our seats that we didn't even know how to react to those words. "He has been visiting his doctor since 22nd of July to get himself check. This means, the Chairman should transfer his position as soon as possible." My face contorted in confusion after hearing the truth. "Excuse me, Chairman has a heart disease?" I was buffering because I couldn't seem to digest the truths he had unraveled. "Yes, and as much as possible, the transfer of position shall be done before his confinement—" He hasn't yet finish to his line when Mr. Go butted in. "It needs to be addressed instantly. I high

Enzo's POVThreemonths hence...We were currently in the shareholder's meeting here in conference hall. Judging by the atmosphere enveloping the whole room, I must say it was a serious and alarming one.The chairman was standing in front of the shareholders while reading the papers on top of the long table. The way Chairman Alberto's face twitched in anger, it seemed like the content of the papers were holding no good news.Everyone was rooted and astonished in their seats including me when Chairman Alberto threw all the papers toward the direction of his people making it scattered inside the hall."What was that?!" he shouted on top of his lungs while showing much agitation."Chairman, since the shooting at Aiden's project launch and he got admitted to the hospital, requiring you to spend all your time with him, our rival company, which is the Royo Bots Co., has made it to exceed our record and becom
