Anthony sat in the waiting room, hands clasped together, eyes staring straight into nothingness.

Fish stood there hands behind his back and his lips pressed in a straight line as he watched his boss worry.

He knew quite well that he boss was deeply in love with Avery but he had no idea why he was still cruel to her.

His boss had ordered him to watch her since she was in her sophomore year but he never made any moves on her.

As if fate already had everything planned out, Avery got into an arranged marriage with him but he was still cruel to her and it puzzled him.

"Doctor!" Anthony sprang up as he spotted the doctor "is she alright?"

Fish just stood there watching, his boss's legs trembled even as he walked, but those legs were the least of his problem now, in fact his health didn't even matter. All that mattered now was Avery.

"She will be fine but the baby would not survive." Anthony's heart shattered at those words, his eyes dilate "we have to carry out a surgical operation i

    It had been twenty four hours but Avery hadn't shown any signs of waking up. The doctor had said twelve hours but the time had doubled. The room was quiet, the distant footsteps could be heard outside the room. Anthony sat there, his elbows on his thigh and fingers entwined as he stared at Avery. Her chest heaved up and down rhythmically, she looked peaceful. Anthony exhaled. He moved his hand slowly to hold her but guilt flashed through his mind and his hand hovered over hers for a while. After a while of contemplation, he summoned the courage to hold her. He squeezed her hand tightly in his. He held her hand in both of his palm bringing it closer to his face. "I'm sorry" Anthony muttered. "Please wake up." He stared at her face but she move, she laid still, no sign of waking up. " Please, Avery" he muttered before bowing his head slightly, he let out a sigh and allowed her hand to rest on his forehead. "You." Anthony heard a small weak voice. He shot his head up to see Ave

    "One week and two days and she hasn't showed any signs of waking up" the doctor said after examining Avery for a while. "We might have to suggest alternative treatment" The room was just as sterile and cold as it had been, the heart monitor beeped slowly and rhythmically. "What do you mean?" Mrs Valerie's brows creased. Wasn't she the same doctor who had come in minutes ago? "She was awake minutes ago, didn't you just leave here moments ago after checking her?" Did this mean that someone else had impersonated the doctor? Mrs Valerie's pulse quickened at the thought. "No ma'am" the doctor frowned "You told me she had a panic attack and you injected something into her" Mrs Valerie stood up. "I didn't come here ma'am." The doctor uttered. "If it wasn't you then who was it"Mrs Valerie asked in a small voice. " I have no idea" the doctor shrugged "I'll check the surveillance footage" The doctor rushed out and Mrs Valerie turned to Avery who looked peacefully asleep. Why would an

    "I've checked everything, it's as if he just vanished right after the crash" fish told Anthony. Anthony sat legs crossed, his back to Fish who stood right opposite him both of them separated by the huge brown polished mahogany desk. Anthony turn the chair slowly, one hands fiddling with his pen, the other on the arm rest. His brows creased and his lips pressed in a straight line. "Are you thinking what I'm thinking Fish?" Anthony asked staring intently into nothingness. He remembered quite well that himself and his father had boarded the private jet with a pilot on board and that was Eliot but it was strange that when the plane was about to crash, the pilot had disappeared. "The crash was planned." Fish said like he had read Anthony's mind. "Exactly." Anthony paused "but why? Who would have wanted me dead?" "Someone must have known you were traveling with father and I'm guessing their aim was to take over the Hartford's empire" Fish said. " Why else would anyone want the your f

    "why isn't he dying" Smith gritted. He slammed his hands on the table. Blood boiling, jaws clenched. "Let's just take a break, you've tried your best." Lana said walking up behind him and placing her hand on his back as he stood by the table. It was already dark, the moon cast a soft gleam off golden light through the window. The bedroom had a huge bed in the center, a dressing table that sat in front of the mirror. " How did he survive the plane crash. He should have died." Smith seethed. "The doctors said it was a miracle, it's impossible for a person to survive such" Lana added. Anthony had been in a plane crash nine months ago with his father. They were both traveling to canada for a business trip. They were halfway through the journey when the plane began shaking. It was that the realized that the pilot wasn't there on the plane. "Lana we have to come up with a new plan. What if That Avery girl gives him an heir?" Smith said. His eyes stared straight on the table. Lana sto

    According to the doctors, the insemination process was successful so why was she bleeding? It can't possibly be her period because she had missed two months. Was there something wrong with her baby? Was she having a miscarriage? All these questions spun in Avery's head. Anthony had already gone to work, so didn't have to answer any questions about her whereabouts. Thankfully, she would get the test results today. She caught a cab and headed to the hospital. She would have called the families doctors but considering the fact that Anthony had warned her to abort the baby, she decided against it. She got to the hospital and sat opposite the gynecologist. The office was spacious, a flower stood at a corner, and there was a huge window with a mesmerizing view of the city."These are the scan results." The doctor slid some paper on the desk towards her.
