Andrew hesitated for a little while , conflicted on whether to go meet Mr Devon, although he was curious to know why Mr Devon was requesting to see him, but at same time, he was worried that he wouldn’t be able to spend as much time as he had planned to, with his daughter . Deciding to go on with this earlier decision, he turned to face the averaged height man who was standing beside him with his hands tucked into his pockets “Go tell your boss that I am not ….. “Well, his boss is here” Mr. Devon cut in from behind taking off his shades“ If the mountain won't come to you, you must go to the mountain, right? He teased, a small smile playing on his lips “ I am Devon Amante” he introduced, stretching out his hands to Andrew “Andrew Baron”Andrew replied curtly, stretching out his hands to take Mr Devon’s outstretched arms “To what do I owe this pleasure Mr. Devon?” he said, cutting straight to the point “I see, you are an impatient one.This will be fast, but I'm sure you already know
Mr Devon’s words caught Andrew off guard, as he furrowed his eyebrows, a small smile playing at the corner of his lips. Solomon, Mr Devon’s assistant, widened his eyes in surprise at what his boss had just said. It has never been heard in history that a recommendation to join supreme club had ever been given freely to anyone , so what does his boss have in mind ? Mr Devon took in Andrew's astonished expression, a smug grin spreading across his face. He knew he had hit the right spot, and soon, this man would be at his service. “You know , we would never ask anyone to join us because we are obviously not in need of members, but in this case, I believe you are really opportuned or should I say, I'm simply curious to know someone who could get Mr Choi to bow,so feel free to call yourself lucky”Mr Devon said smugly Andrew chuckled lightly, his face holding an amused expression “Mr Devon, No doubt this is indeed a rare opportunity and I must say, I am deeply honored to be offered a
“ Mr Andrew, the doctors said it's too late, and there is nothing they can do about Winnie, she's dying” Maria said defeatedly, tears showering down her face “Calm down Maria, Winnie will not die ?” Andrew said reassuredly, trying to calm his own ranging heart, this was the last thing he had expected today of all days. He dropped the gift bags he was holding on both hands as he rushed to where his daughter was laying lifeless,his heart sinking in pain as he bent, taking in the state she was in. Her face looked pale,and her breathing was faint, a glaring sign that she was in a critical condition. “How long has she been like this?”he asked, raising his head to look up at Maria “For over half an hour now” Maria replied helplessly “ Half an hour?”Andrew rephrased, furrowing his eyebrows, as a pang of guilt dawned on him, he began to blame himself for wasting time in the mall. If he had come earlier,her condition wouldn't have gotten worse. He placed two fingers on her stomach, afte
Andrew scoffed,looking up at Dr.Jackson “If you weren't playing, why has my daughter been unresponsive for over half an hour now? Why is her breathing too faint? What have you been able to do?”He retorted “You are a joker if you think there is anything you can do about this child's case. The best of Nashville’s pediatrician Is yet to come up with a solution and you think there is anything you can do?” the second junior doctor fired back, glaring at Andrew Dr. Jackson raised his shoulders in ego, snapping his disdainful gaze to Andrew “Look Mr man, this child's case Is severe and I won't stand here and allow you to toy with her life, go elsewhere and practice your quack medicine” Dr. Jackson yelled, his voice laced with finality. “Well, in that case doctor, you should sit and watch, If you can't stand”Andrew retorted and turned to face Maria “Get me what I asked for now !”Andrew ordered “Ok” Maria nodded, rushing off to get what Andrew asked for, she wasn't very sure of what Andrew
Andrew furrowed his eyebrows In shock as he hastily picked up Winnie in his arms and sprinkled more salt on her navel area. “Maria, get me some vinegar and warm water, be fast! ” Andrew ordered, his heart sinking in pain as he watched his daughter continue to vomit blood, and gasp for air,but there was nothing he could do at the moment. He didn't foresee this happening , if not, he would have come prepared. It was also shocking to him as he had never encountered any food poisoning case that was as severe as this. “Be fast Maria”he called out “Sir, I have called the police, and they are on their way”One of the junior officers announced mockingly while glaring at Andrew Dr. Jackson smiled, and quickly concealed it as he pointed his fingers at Andrew. “I warned you, but you chose to endanger the life of this child with your quack medicine. We were almost at the verge of figuring out a solution but you came and destroyed all my effort!” Dr. Jackson growled, pretending as if he was
“What's happening?”Everyone was stunned as the whitish substance that was previously coming out of from Winnie’s mouth abruptly ceased as her breathing returned back to normal, her eyes snapping open at once. “Daddy is that you ” Winnie called out faintly,as soon she caught sight of the figure holding her in his arms. “Yes princess, it's daddy”Andrew said softly, the corner of his eyes brimming with tears as Winnie wrapped her tiny arms round his mid section. “She's awake!” Maria jumped up screaming in jou, as tears of happiness began to flood down her face. "Wow, thank goodness !" The other two nannies said joyfully, their cheeks stretching into a smile “Is she truly awake?”The doctors exchanged glances, their eyes bulging out in shock and surprise. It was utterly shocking to them, because even if they had a gun pointed to their heads, they would never have believed that Andrew would be able to revive Winnie from such a critical condition she was in. The two junior doctors
“Mr Baron , I am sorry, but the DNA test results came back negative” the doctor informed Andrew, his voice laced with sympathy. “ Which means I'm not Winnie’s father? Andrew asked, staring at the doctor with wide eyes , hoping that he'd refute what he had just said and confirm that it was a mistake. But —it never came. And for the first time ever , he was short of words, he opened his mouth to say something, but no words came forth . His heart was heavy with dread, and he could feel his heart banging against his chest. “Mr Baron , we've had similar cases in the past and most of them ended up being a case of paternity fraud” The doctor suggested, adjusting his glasses. “No, this is definitely not a similar case” Andrew countered, lost in thoughts. There is only one answer to this, he thought, using a white handkerchief to wipe the beads of sweat on his forehead. He had found out that his 3 year old daughter had sickle cell anemia. It was shocking to him because
In fact, he was the almighty chairman of A and U group she was gushing about.7 years ago,at the brink of death, a young girl saved him from the same accident that took his parents. Andrew gave the girl his family's bracelet that had a special mark on it, as a way to show appreciation.Not long after the girl saved him, he was taken away by a mysterious old man. Not only had the old man cured him, but he'd also taught Andrew everything he knew when he found his great talent.With all the top-notch skills he learned, he had secretly won a lot battles for the country and gained great respect even from the president. He also established many groups and companies. The fortune under his name was countless.Despite gaining such wealth and power, there was one thing he could never let go of in his heart: the death of his parents. He believed it was definitely not an accident. Over the years, he had rarely appeared in public, and few people knew what he really looked like. He wanted the perso
