Chapter One Hundred And Ninety-Four

Far north, along the shores of a small coastal town called St. Hayes, located in Moreno, a man laid unconscious in one of the small abodes belonging to the fishermen.

This was the third week he had been unconscious, even after being rescued from the frigid waters of Moreno, even after the doctors had checked on him and saved him from the claws of death.

But today was going to be different.

The man awoke to the soft glow of the evening sun on his face, the sea breeze playing with the soft blonde curls on his head, which were almost down to his shoulders by now.

He was lying on his back on a very hard surface, and covered up to his neck with a blanket.

He blinked to clear the grogginess from his vision, and after some time the room slowly came into focus.

It was a large room, airy with multiple windows, covered with delicate curtains through which the soft golden glow of sunset filtered through.

The bed on which he was lying on was located in the m

    Chapter One Hundred And Ninety-FiveFour Years Later"With all due respect, Miss Fernandez, we would only like to know our stand in these circumstances." Director Noah spoke up, "It's been four years. Now, I understand the Chairman is recuperating but isn't it strange that we don't even know what he's recovering from? And why has he refused to take over his duties?"Lana chuckled slightly as she leaned forward, placing both elbows on the huge mahogany desk in front of her.She was seated at the head of the long rectangular desk, as the acting chairman of the Romero Empire. Behind her, Liam and Diego stood as straight as a rod, their hard gazes identical.Lana was smiling but the icy glint in her eyes was enough to send a chill down the spines of the thirty-two members of Romero's Board Of Directors seated before her.They cleared their throats enigmatically, and shifted their gazes, rearranging their jackets and trying to look more confident than they actually felt."Why has the Chai

Employees passed by her and bowed respectfully, giving her side looks but she didn't care. "You shouldn't blame them too much." Liam said curtly behind her, staring straight ahead as she waited for the elevator, "They have every right to know about where he is, don't you think?""Yes CEO, getting worked up is not going to solve anything." Diego agreed, giving Lana a nervous look."He's not here." Lana bit the words out. She took a deep breath then exhaled slowly, making her nerves which were on edge to slowly calm down, "When I find him, everything would return back to normal. You know this, don't you, Liam?""I know." Liam replied stiffly, "I also know whose fault it is that he is not here right now."Lana let out a shaky breath, her fingers coming to curl together around the clasp of her bag. Liam's cold wo

    Chapter One Hundred And Ninety Seven"Uncle Adrian, when will mommy get here?"The little girl sat upright on the bed and stared expectantly into Adrian's face, with startling deep blue gray eyes. She was a beautiful child, with a full head of blonde curls, a small delicate doll like face and pretty features. Her skin, however, was the unhealthy color of paper at the moment, and she looked too thin and small for her age. Adrian gently caressed her blonde curls, "She'll be here soon, angel." He said softly, as he gently lowered her back on the bed, "You know you have to rest. Do not try to sit up, Arielle.""But I'm not sleepy," Arielle protested, jutting out her bottom lip in a cute pout.However, she did not resist as Adrian gently arranged the covers around her, making sure she was comfortable, especially with the small hand, which had a tube stuck in it, and was attached to a drip bag above her.The large room was filled with medical equipments, monitors beeping quietly and consi

    Chapter One Hundred And Ninety-Eight St. Hayes, Moreno. He was in the water again. He wanted to move, but his lungs were burning and his limbs felt like lead. The water surrounding him was colored with the deep red of blood. His blood. He was sinking, slowly but surely sinking. The life was going out of him. He was going to die. Then, she appeared above the water. She, with the red hair, almost like the blood pumping out of his side. Her face was hazy and he wanted to see it so bad for the last time. To touch it, to etch it in every part of his memory as he feels his life slip from him, but he could only hear the terror in her voice as she screams piercingly, "Damien!" He jerked awake, and tumbled out of bed unto the ground, breathing laboriously. It was like he was still in the water and his breath was coming out fast and shallow. The man couldn't breath, he peeled off the light cotton shirt off his body, which was soaked through with sweat, and tossed it to the side. The

Pa Eugene grumbled, "Did you have to bring out the silverware? What's the great occasion?" "I'm celebrating being back home after such a long time, grandfather,"Maya rolled her eyes, then winked at Noah, 'as well as being reunited with Noah." "What the heck?" Pa Eugene asked, his eyebrows high in confusion as he was perplexed by his grand-daughter's behaviour. Noah ignored her, focusing on his meal. Maya picked on her food as well, her eyes following every of Noah's movement as he ate. He ate like he was royalty or something, eating fish and rice with such grace. Maya watched as he tried to switch forks while eating, then awkwardly set it down as he realized there was only one meal set. This puzzled the brunette and she asked curiously, "You seem to be familiar with such dining style." She chuckled, "I was going to impress you a li

    Chapter Two Hundred Noah doubled over the ropes, trying as much as possible to hold in the discomfort he felt. He was seated on a small fishing boat, which belonged to Pa Eugene, his huge self and long legs almost taking over the small boat, adding to his discomfort. The rhythmic rocking of the boat was enough to lull him to that familiar drowsiness which he always felt whenever he came on expeditions like this with Pa Eugene. But he swallowed hard instead, pushing down the bubbling of air threatening to erupt from his mouth. All around him, in little fishing boats as well were men, toiling hard for their daily catch. They seemed serious, casting nets and pulling them in, gutting fishes and cleaning them, generally making themselves useful. But at the same time, he could feel their eyes on him, watching him, waiting for that moment when he would double over the side of the boat and throw up his breakfast. And then they'd roar in derisive laughter, and talk about how less of a ma

He was very much aware that Noah had been struggling with recovering his memories.He knew how much the young man struggled with insomnia and his dreams. Sadly, there were no doctors in the small town could help him.They believed a part of himself which was lost in his accident was only trying to reveal itself. If he could harness it, he would be able to get clues from it to recover his memories.But the problem with the dreams was that, even though it was the same thing that repeated over and over again, it was still as vague as it had been four years ago.Pa Eugene really wished the young man would get his memories back, so he would be happy.Noah was very much out of place here, and even though Pa Eugene tried to make things as comfortable as he could for him, it was only right that he regained his memory and his roots.He was an energetic young man, always eager to work or learn

They winked at each other at what they thought was Noah's foolery.This gigolo looking guy, who does not even remember his name wants to sort out a book of accounts.They snickered and nudged each other in derision."Looky here, Noah, we know you like to show off, and strut around like some kind of mysterious guy," Jeb said harshly, "But this is not something for you to do. Give it here!"He yanked the book right out of Noah's hands, and threw it down on the table, eyeing him with derision, "you can't even gut a fish and yet you want to sort out a book of accounts. What a fool, ha ha ha."The men laughed once more, but this time the laughter was cut short by Pa Eugene who slapped the back of Jeb's head hard."Oi, what you hitting me for?!" The young man cried out in pain, rubbing the back of his head. He glared at the old man who wagged a thick, stubby finger in his face,"He says he wants to try." The old man s

The other employees in that office stood behind their desks, nervously clutching their hands and giving each other side looks.Their gazes flitted from the Regional Head to Noah and back to each other. The tension in the office was palpable and they could not wait to get past the suffocating mome

She said, throwing up her hands in disgust, "I should have known better than to warn you.

He said, a tiny smirk curving his lips, "You don't scare me and neither does he! I'm calling his bluff."Maya laughed in disbelief, then slowly blinked in confusion as Gary puffed out his chest, tucking his hands deep in his pockets.He was really serious!Her jaw twitching with anger, she jabbed a finger in his shoulder, "Don't say I did not warn you," she snarled, "I'd like to see you so smug when you're six feet under."She stormed off, and Gary watched her, his ey

She cried out in agony, "Let me go.
