Gerard got home and he went straight to his study and got the pendant from where he kept it. "You are back sir." Mrs. Mendoza said to him when she saw him coming out of his study. "Yes! But I will be leaving very soon. Please can you arrange food for me in a warmer." Gerard said. "Why sir? Do you want to stay out tonight at the office?" She asked him."No Mendy! It is not for me. It is for Ben." Mendoza was elated. "You found him. I thought he must have gone for good. "I found him but he in the hospital right now. He was ran over by an oncoming vehicle." He said. "Gracious me! I hope he is okay?" She said, visibly shaken. "He is. Asides from a broken leg and a cut on his head, he is okay." Gerard said."I am happy. Thank God!" She said. "So please arrange the food for me so that when he wakes up he can eat something." He said. "Okay sir!" She replied and went her way to the kitchen. Gerard went upstairs to his room. He saw his wife and he said nothing to her. "Have you finally seen hi
Ben was speechless. He did not know what to say. He also did not know what to think. "Can Mr. Chamberlain be my father?" He thought. He looked at Mr. Chamberlain who might potentially be his father. Gerard was stunned. Now he understood why he had a deep attraction towards Ben. "This would be the revelation of the year if you are really my father." Ben said."Is there any reason why it is not a possibility?" Gerard asked. "I am just stunned after thinking about looking for my father, I never knew he was right here in front of me." Ben said. "I never knew you were also right here in front of me." Gerard said. "Ben was still doubting it but Gerard was sure that this was his son but he was trying not to get ahead of himself."I know you are still shocked by this and you are having doubts. Am I right?" He asked Ben. Ben nodded his head in agreement to what he said. "Now! This is what we are going to do." Gerard said. "And what is that?" Ben asked. "We will conduct a DNA test." Gerard tol
Rose had not been herself since the boy he tried to get rid off was still alive and in the same house with her. Rose had no idea that things were going to be different by the time the news hits her that her husband had a son. The news will be a news that Rose will not accept. She will definitely be livid and she might go to the edge of doing something very drastic and desperate.Gerard was about to go to check on Ben when Rose said he wanted to talk to him. "What is it?" Gerard asked her in a very polite manner which surprised her a little bit. "I am sorry that I have not really being a good wife, a companion and a friend but I really want us to work things out." Rose said. Gerard saw that Rose was putting a lot of effort in what she was saying.Gerard said nothing. He just listened to what she had to say. "I want us to live as a family just the way things were before." Rose said. "I am open to that only if you are nice to Ben." Gerard said. Rose was livid about what Gerard said but s
Gerard and Ben spent all day in Ben's room and then later in the evening, they both had dinner alone without Rose. Ben was so elated that he was grinning all through that evening. Mrs. Mendoza noticed it and she was wondering what was making him feel so joyful. "Ben could not even eat. The happiness was enough satisfaction. Gerard was also not hungry. He was happy that he now had an heir. Someone that would take over from him when he was ready to hand it all to Ben. At some point he thought that he was sterile. He thought he was the one that had a problem getting a woman pregnant. Now it was certain that he was not a sterile man. If not for the fact that he lost one of his children, he would also have had a daughter."Dad! I am trying hard not to call you dad because you said we should keep it a secret." Ben said. "I know how hard it is going to be for you but we have to hide it until I complete what I want to do. Once that is done I will introduce you as my son to the world." Gerard
"Are you ready to leave for the parmaceutical company." Gerard asked his son. The company Ben worked for about three days. The same company where Mr. Victor framed him up. Ben was still walking with a slight limp. Gerard had totally left Rose. Gerard was no longer sleeping on the same Bed with Rose regularly. He alternated the times he was sleeping with her on the bed. Rose already knew why but she still kept it to herself.Gerard and Ben went to the car together and they drove to the company. Gerard wanted to show him around the company. Gerard wanted to let his son know the few companies that he owned.After they left, Rose put a call through to someone."Please I want you to trail them." She said on the phone...............................................................................................................................When the car stopped in front of the building, Ben was filled with pride that he was going to own this someday. He stepped out with the help of his
"I tell you this with the utmost sincerity. He actually declared him to everyone at the company today, that Ben was his son." Victor said to Rose. Rose was speechless. "Are you still there?" Victor asked her. "I am here." Rose said. Rose wassurprisingly calm. "I am sure you knew about Ben being his son." Victor said. "I just knew two days ago even though I had to find out myself." Rose said."How do you mean, you had to find out yourself?" Victor asked her. "He did not tell me about it. I had to get a hand on the result of the DNA test that he did to know about it." Rose said rather irritatingly. "Okay! I think I understand what you meant earlier on." Victor said. There was a brief silence. "Listen Mr. Victor, do not call again. I thought I made that clear the last time we spoke." Rose said."I know that you did but I just felt that you needed to know about what happened this morning." Victor said."Like I have said don't ever call me again." Rose said and cut the call. "This woman i
Gerard was silent. He had no idea that, that was what she was referring to. He wondered how she knew about it because he had not mentioned it to anyone in the house. He was actually going to do that, first thing in the morning when everyone who worked in his mansion were present. Gerard began to thonk about how she might have known about it.Rose by now was exhausted and disappointed because this was not the way she planned on handling the discussion with Gerard. "Who told you that Ben is my son?" He asked her. Rose was quiet because she did not know what to tell him. Gerard knew that Rose was a woman who was very desperate. He understood that she was someone who would do anything to get what she wanted even if it meant taking out the person.This was why Gerard had told Ben not to tell anyone about it until he told him to. Gerard was being careful of his wife. "Rose! Who told you that Ben is my son." He asked her again. Rose had no other option but to tell him the truth. "Some days a
Ben was yet to call his aunt and Henry to tell them of the good news. Ben decided to give them a call. "Hello!"Mary answered the call on the third ring. "Hello aunt Mary." Ben said. Mary as already knew who was calling. It was his nephew, Ben. "Oh! Ben. I have not heard from you in a while." She said. "I know aunt. I have been busy with a lot. Some weeks ago I was almost killed by an onrushing vehicle." He said."Oh my God! How are you now?" She asked. "I am doing fine. I had a broken leg and a cut on my head. The leg is almost healed although I still need a walking stick to walk." Ben said. "Was it that serious?" She asked him. "Yes! It was." He said. "I am happy that you were not killed." She said. "I am glad to be alive." He said. "How are things over there?" She asked."Things are looking up aunt." Ben said and the aunt heard the excitement in his voice. "You sound excited Ben. What happened to you?" She asked. "Aunt, I am happy to say that I have found my dad." Ben said. "You a
