"How?" Marie exclaimed in shock, she was aware, however, that others were trying to rest in the ward so she made sure not to shout too loudly."How what?" Tristan asked her with a raised brow.Marie couldn't utter a word, she was left speechless as she stared at her senior from Middle school. She remembered how he was one of the most wretched students, his clothes were worn out, and his shoes were pleading to be thrown into the garbage.She remembered how he was a constant victim of the bullies and was made to do a lot of dirty jobs on behalf of others because of his status, so as she stared at him, she couldn't believe her eyes."What brought you back to this place? I thought you left the country to New York, you said you were relocating." Tristan asked, taking his seat on the bed next to her. Tristan has known Marie only because she was the biggest school diva, her bad attitude caused a lot of students to dislike her, but her parent's financial status kept them closer.She enjoyed
This man was none other than the Manager, he ran out with an expression of worry with his eyes pleading for mercy."Please sir, don't do this to me I beg you please." He pleaded knocking gently on the window of the car."What is going on?" Claudia asked."Nothing much my dear, just showing off as usual." Tristan scoffed with a frown on his face as he looked out the window, staring at the manager in disdain."Max start the car, I need to see Pa Kaim before heading to the airport, I don't have all day to spend here listening to all his shenanigans," he instructed Max started the engine, but as he did, the manager's voice only became louder."Please sir, I do not want to lose my job, I beg you, Mr Coleman, we can sort this out, please! Mr Coleman!" he called out but Max was already turning the car around to leave the hospital arena."Mr Coleman please!" He continued to call out running after the car as it was leaving, but it seems Tristan had made up his mind not pity because the car did
They had just arrived home when Tristan received an unexpected phone call from Jennes, he stared at the screen and felt disturbed. The last thing he wanted was another lady flirting with him but at the same time, he did not want to conclude that it was the reason so he picked up the call."Hello Jennes," he placed the phone on his ear as he walked slowly into the living room."Good day sir, " she greeted him from the other side of the phone."How are you?" He asked and she retorted briskly,"I'm fine sir. I was calling to let you know that I am in the country and just wanted to know where I should come from the funeral sir, if it's not too much to ask."Tristan was dump-founded, he couldn't believe that Jennes left Florida just to attend his father's funeral, That was thoughtful of her but she hoped something was not amiss, or that she had no future expectations."Uhm... that was very nice of you Jennes, thank you so much for thinking about that... I don't know what to say, to be hone
/Church premises/Outside the church at the parking lot, Laura sat inside the car and waited for Tristan and his family to go into the church first. She had managed to successfully follow them from the house to the church unnoticed.After they had gone, she stepped down from the car and looked towards the entrance, the number of security guards present there was enough to send a shiver down her spine. The cars that were parked outside were just breathtaking because they belonged to not normal but first-class citizens including CEOs and ministers.She took a deep breath and hoped she would be allowed inside, but before she could take a step forward an unfamiliar voice called out to her."Excuse me miss?" A young lady dressed in a black but beautiful gown with long and dark silky hair said to her."Hello?" Laura responded with a smile and an expression of "How may I help you?""My name is Jennes, and uhm... I just wanted to confirm whether or not I am in the right place. Please is this
The blessings service ended and the mass began to disperse, sadness followed as Tristan's father's coffin was moved into a car to be taken to the cemetery.As for Laura, she sat inside the car all the while in disappointment, knowing fully well that she wouldn't be allowed inside the church no matter how much she begged or argued, she decided to wait outside until they were leaving for the cemetery.Jennes on the other hand, whilst sitting far away from Tristan tried to figure out who that lady was. She tried to convince herself that it was Tristan's sister, but the chemistry between them caused her to think otherwise and her assumption was verified after the mass was over when Claudia hugged Tristan passionately and wiped the tears off the corner of his eyes.Now outside, Jennes forced her way through the crowd of eminent personalities hoping to catch up with Tristan who was far ahead. When she was close up, she had to wait a little to see him because he was discussing with another m

Tristan's eyes widened in shock, the thought of getting a quest just immediately didn't sit well with him."Are you alright Tristan? " Harry asked him."Oh, I'm alright, just had a weird thought, like what if I was that therapist? "With a hint of sarcasm, Harry said"That's crazy bro, Even if I'm paid a million dollars, I will not go face to face with Drake, not even in my next life." " I believe he'd be chained and stuff, but I don't think it's easy to change the mind of someone who has already been nicknamed the devil's incarnate. It's like telling the devil to repent of his sins."Claudia added."I think that's the last thing the devil will do, but trust these therapists, somehow they have a way of convincing these people," Harry said." Excuse me guys, I'll be back, "Tristan excused himself and went out of the gym, he was distracted by the new quest notification that had been blinking before his eyes.As soon as he was out of sight, he quickly checked the message to see what crazy
"You forget?" Claudia asked him as she saw the expression of surprise on his face."You finished the transfer already? I ... I forgot you said that," he said Meanwhile Harry watched them both whilst lifting a 2kg weight with one arm.Claudia sighed heavily, and went closer to where he was, and hugged him saying,"I knew you were too occupied to remember but it's true, as a medical student, I can't be out of school for that long." " I ... I didn't even get to saying a proper goodbye, I feel so bad right..."Shii," Claudia placed her hands on his lips."That is not necessary, you will still come over right?" she asked but Tristan's eyes narrowed and she could sense that the response would be negative."No?" she asked briskly."I am sorry," Tristan answered and quickly stared away from her disappointed eyes, Deep down he wanted to go with her, but then there was a system that required him not to."So, you will stop going to... what about the certificate you needed to compliment your rol
