James' POVWe arrived at the vacation house, very far away from the bustling area. The environment was filled with green grass, vast sea and nice humidity.“So, this is where we would have missed.” Ashley peaked through the window and grinned. Kelvin nodded his head in adjournment since he was focused on the console game he was playing.I curbed the car at the parking unit and we stepped down. The cool breeze flushed on our faces, it was so different from the breeze in the city. Maybe because the place looked green and reserved. It was a good location for a vacation house.No car horns, no loud chatters or whatnot.I scanned the environment as the children giggled and jumped in excitement, from afar, people would assume they were the sweetest humans.The ocean sit-out was somewhat isolated with few people, the sea had fewer people and another batch of people strolling around.Unlike how it was overhyped online, I didn't expect to see such a population. Rather, I was expecting a crowd.

James' POVAnd that was how our two little demons changed overnight.“What will you have for the morning?” I asked the kids calmly as they took their sit on the dining chairs.“Anything. Because of your busy schedule, we will have cereal.” Kelvin said and Ashley nodded in adjournment.“I thought you said cereals aren't good for breakfast?” Leena curled her lips, obviously teasing them as she strolled in.“Not anymore. Cereals are good for kids.” Ashley said while nodding her head.“Fine then.” She sighed.“I heard our final year result is out. I have to go and check for mine and also find out the date for our convocation.” She informed us calmly.“Congratulations auntie!” The children said cheerfully.“But, I thought you can check your results from home.” I asked her cryptically.“Online right? Well, the dean found out that some people bribe the CBT men and also hack the online site. So, it had been banned for the meantime. We have to manually check our results from now on.” She expla

James' POV“Uncle! Uncle! Wait for us.” Ashley and Kelvin ran after me as we walked to the garage in the city children's park.“Boss, did you…” Harry approached me, looking anxious and I stopped him with my hand in the air.“Yes, I saw it.” I said.“Send the kids to the mansion, I will be heading to the family house.” I instructed him seriously.“Boss, will you be fine alone?” Harry asked, looking worried.“Yes. I will be fine.” I assured him with a warm smile.“Alright kids.” I bent down, staring at their anxious eyes.“By now, your auntie is back home so you won't be lonely anymore.” I began and they listened to me without bombarding me with questions.“When you get home, be quiet and don't do anything to annoy your auntie, alright?” I asked them calmly and they nodded their heads.“Yes uncle.” They said in unison.“There is an emergency I have to attend to, so your Uncle Harry will send you back home.” I informed them.“Uncle, will you get us something sweet on your way back home?”

James' POVI was moved to the VIP hospital room meant for Wellson’s family.“James! James!” I heard Leena's voice as soon as the room door slid open and she rushed in.“Le…” I trailed off when she hugged me tightly, burying her face on my chest.I assume she forgot I was a patient.“How are you feeling now?” She asked anxiously, staring into my eyes.Behind her were my father and stepfamily, Harry and the children.I scanned her face and noticed some red lines on them.“Who did this to you?” I questioned in annoyance.“This is not important. I was afraid and scared, what happened to you?” She rambled with words, looking concerned and I smirked.“I think I'm fine. Though the doctor said I can't be out of bed for the meantime. My leg almost got crippled.” I explained rashly to her and she sniffled, nodding her head.“Hubby, I told you he will be fine. You didn't have to leave the house.” Madam Charity's voice caused me to narrow my gaze to their direction.“You are right.” My father nod

James' POVFLASH BACK…The hospital room suddenly became quiet and dark with little light. I checked the wall clock beside me and it was 1:35am.Suddenly, the hospital room door slowly slid as someone walked in - trying to be quiet so he wouldn't be spoked.He wore a complete black outfit including hand gloves and a nose mask.I closed my eyes, pretending to be asleep as the person walked closer to me.I assume since they heard I was bedridden, they wanted to act fast.The person started unplugging the drip connection and turning off some box which wasn't connected to me.It was turned on but the doctor didn't use them on me since they weren't necessary.As the person tried to pull the string connected to my hand, I grabbed his hand and quickly turned on the light.“Catch you!” I said with a loud voice and the person widened his eyes in shock while my jaw dropped.He was the least I expected to do such a thing.PRESENTLY…Was he paid by my stepmother? What was his reason for doing wha
