Chapter Three Hundred And EightyNoah Eugene sat straightbacked in Master Vernon's living room.He sat unblinking, his gaze focused on the chirping birds on the cherry blossom tree, right outside the window in the yard.He was looking but not really seeing, as he stared at the birds, and the branches of cherry blossoms, swaying slightly with the gentle breeze that wafted through the yard every now and then.A lot of thoughts were going through his mind. At the same time, he could not pinpoint anything important at the moment.But one question actually stood out in his head."Who am I?"He felt like he had been plunged into a bottomless pit, falling but never actually arriving.His mind was foggy multiple times of the day, and he tried as much as possible to rely on the information available to him current, but he still felt empty.Sighing softly, he stared down at his hands.They were broad, veiny and well tanned. He could see that his fingers were elegantly long and his palms were no
Chapter Three Hundred And Seventy-NinePresent Day.Maya sat primly beside Zaire in the sleek black Maybach, as it rolled down the exquisite roads of Oakcrest.She held her head up proudly, and one long spender leg was crossed over the other.She was wearing a long white dress, and sandals with low heels. She had on emerald contacts which covered her brown eyes, and her hair was dyed fiery red. Several extensions were added to give it that fuller and more wavy look.Just like Lana's. She had on a simple pearl necklace and earrings and there was a gold bracelet on her wrist, that was in the design of a curled dragon.It was Maya's favorite thing about the outfit on her that day.Zaire really went all out to make her look like Lana, even dying her hair and making her wear contacts.Maya had been shocked at her own transformation as well. She also possessed exquisite makeup skills, and that added to the mirage that they were building, as well as cover some of the bruises on her skin.Ev
Chapter Three Hundred And Seventy-EightFred's mouth hung open in shock as he listened to Master Vernon. For a long while, there was silence in the room and only the whistling sound of the teapot could be heard.Noah's amnesia had worsened?But how was that possible? Fred rubbed his forehead in frustration."Master, I do not quite understand what you mean." He said in a troubled voice, dropping the fan and leaning closer over the table, "Are you saying he is going to be like that continously? He will never be able to recognize his loved ones again?"Master Vernon sighed, as he held out his arms, indicating that he wanted to get up.Fred quickly went round the table and helped the old man up lifting him up by the underarms. He steadied the old man and reached for his walking stick which was leaning against the side of the wall.He placed it in the old man's hand and the old man nodded slightly in gratitude. He slowly stated making his way outside the room Fred sighed in exasperation
Chapter Three Hundred And Seventy-SevenMaster Matthew Vernon sat behind his table, quietly making a calligraphy piece, and watching Fred at the same time.A ghost of a smile tugged on his lips as he watched the young man. Fred was very much determined to do whatever it takes to please him, if that will make the old man continue his treatment of the golden haired young man.The Master Matthew Vernon had retired from active work a long time ago, and was content with enjoying his remaining time on earth, just appreciating the goodness of life.He wanted to live his life away from the great recognition, and status that came with his title.Being the most renowned Oriental Doctor among the three giants: Oakcrest, Crestview and Emerald City, Master Vernon did garner a lot of attention wherever he goes.Living alone in the mountains had been one of his greatest wishes, and it would take a great deal of consideration to make him change his mind.This was why Fred was so desperate to please h
Chapter Three Hundred And Seventy-SixThe driver brought the car around, and Zaire got in, adjusting his suit, still with that smug smirk on his face.It gave the driver the creeps.Ever since Zaire had knockd him out with his gun, he was constantly on edge around him.The driver could see nothing funny that Zaire was laughing at, so he could only conclude that he was probably concocting up some devious scheme.He shivered as he turned on the engine and drove away from the building.When he had gone to get the car, he had heard from the other guards how Zaire had killed the head guard earlier.The reason was even more shocking.He had killed the head guard because of Maya Eugene, that crazy hitch.The driver could not understand it.Why was Zaire favoring Maya Eugene, even going as far as killing a man for her?She definitely did not look like his type, not that he knew what Zaire's type was.If Maya had not succeeded in seducing him, then she was being protected because she was pivot
Chapter Three Hundred And Seventy-FiveZaire walked out of the third room and down to the elevator. Taking the ride to his office on the top floor, he stopped short when the doors slid open and his driver was standing right outside.The driver had his hand on his head and was leaning against the wall behind him as he rubbed his temple in agony.Earlier, Zaire had knocked him out with his gun, and he'd been in a dead faint since then.He had only just woken up to find himself still slumped on the dirty floor of the hallway, outside the elevator.He hissed in resentment and pain, miffed at the fact that none of the men even thought of helping him away from there when Zaire had knocked him out.He wondered where everyone went to, and swallowed hard at the dreadful thought of seeing Zaire again.He really wished he had not taken Aryan's role upon himself.Surely, deciding to be the assistant of a man who shattered the knee of his former assistant, and sidekick of almost ten years, was ma
