AIDEN'S POV I walked into the family mansion and then approached the maid who I had sighted as soon as I entered the house. "Mr Hart.... you're here, it's good to see you" she greeted me like she didn't just see me last week Sunday for the weekly dinner we had with grandma." Where's my grandmother?" I asked her, going straight to the point. I wasn't in the mood for fraternizing." She's upstairs in her room" The maid replied.Without wasting any more second, I headed straight for grandma Gloria's room and then placed a knock at the door." Come in" she stated from inside. She was sitted in front of her dressing mirror, doing only God knows what but I knew that I wasn't interested in it. " Aiden? I was just about to call you" she started and then asked. " What is this I'm hearing about you skipping dinner with Olivia and her family? This is your in-laws from goodsake! Do you know how disrespectful that is?" She asked all at once I wasn't even surprised that she knows about this.
NORA'S POV My world was crumbling and it's only a matter of time before it all collapses to the ground. I remained silent as Salvador read the test result. Apparently everyone was going to find out the secret that I had kept for 6 years today. " Nora..... what is this?" He asked I didn't enven know where to start from. I had thought that I'd be mentally prepared for this moment, but here I am, caught unaware and been forced to explain my deepest fears and secrets to everyone." Why is there a DNA test result containing Duke and Aiden's name?" He continued I swallowed hard as reality dawned on me. " Salvador.....I can explain" I started " Well do so, because that is what I am waiting for " he replied I glanced towards Duke who was peacefully sleeping despite the chaos that was unfolding. I guess the drips that was given to him is what is causing the deep sleep. " Can we please go somewhere quiet ?" I asked Salvador." Fine " he replied as he walked out of the hospital room towar
NORA'S POV I had been soo shocked to find out that Aiden was the only blood donor available for Duke. Could it be any more obvious that they were related? I couldn't even refuse because I had been desperately praying to God for a miracle, I cannot bear to lose my son, he is my everything and if saving him means receiving a blood donation from the one person I had told face to face to stay away from us, then soo be it. I was ready to swallow my pride and be put to shame. I had cried out my eyes as soon as I gained consciousness. The only thing on my mind was the warefare of my son. Now that he had received the blood, I could only pray for things to get better for him as I cared less of the pain that I was in.As soon as I wheeled out of Aiden's room, Jade approached me. " Nora... Duke is up!" She stated " Really....oh my God... please help me" I said to her as she went behind me and then started pushing the wheelchair behind, towards Duke's room. I was filled with soo many emotion
AIDEN'S POV I couldn't believe the words that came out of Jason's mouth. It was as if the world came to a standstill. A full stop." Wait...hold on, I'm sorry that happened, but how is this any of Aiden's business?" Olivia asked him " This is no joke Olivia... this is a life and death situation......you have to come with me Aiden" Jason said to her and then faced me.Even though the both of them were going back and forth about the whole thing, I had already zoned out into my own world with a hundred things going through my mind. I knew that I had already made up my mind not to have anything to do with Nora and here son again especially after what happened yesterday, but....am I supposed to ignore this? Whether I like it or ,I knew that I still have feelings for Nora and the heavens know that I wouldn't be myself until I was right beside her and ofcourse donate some blood to the child." You can't seriously be considering this Aiden....you made a commitment for tonight already " Oli
CHAPTER 96JASON'S POVDuke's Birthday party had been a lot of fun....I doubt if I had ever experienced such fun in a very long time....but thank God I was in attendance yesterday. Right now, I was at the production studio for a meeting as regards the premier of my upcoming movie. 'Lazarus ' . " Mr Jason.......these are the slides you requested for" my assistant said as she handed me the slides. " Thank you Gracie...." I said to her and then asked. " Everything I asked for is in there right?" " Yes sir....you can check it out " she replied " Errmmm.....I won't be able to do that properly until after the meeting " I said to her my just as my phone started to vibrate on the table. " Who's calling?" I asked her I watched as she grabbed the phone to confirm the caller ID. " It's an unknown number" she replied " Unknown number?..... Who could that be?" I asked as she shrugged her shoulders in response. " Just leave it, I will attend to it after the meeting" I added . I do not want a
NORA'S POV I tried as hard as I could not to let my encounter stop me from having fun at the party..... although, my mother's discovery had bothered me but I didn't let it show. I knew that wasn't going to be the end of the conversation but I decided to push all my intrusive thoughts aside and be there for my son." We would have this conversation properly when we return back to the apartment" Hailey said to me before walking away and leaving me dumbfounded. I immediately sighted Salvador entering the hall. I wanted to confront him on why he invited Aiden without my permission but then, I decided against it. There was no point in dragging the issue any further so I just waved at him." Hey" he greeted " Hey.....where were you?" I asked " I was outside" he replied " Oh okay....let me go attend to the kids " I said to him as I walked towards Duke's direction. " Hey buddy, let me hold this for you okay " I said to him as I collected the buzz light year action figure from him." Okay
