Episode 7 : Till eternity

That morning, feeling quite refreshed and energetic Davey Juan arrived in his office but what await him is a newspaper that it's headline boldly reads THE LAST SON OF BERT IS BACK.

Immediately he Shivers and sweat broke out from his forehead. The media wouldn't have make an assumption of it if there isn't a clear source.

" What is this? " He asked himself as he is alone in his grandiose office. " Father Informed me he clearly killed those brats of Bert. Is there last of them? "

His question was answered by the loud argument from the outside. Swiftly he step out to see what has caused the ruckus.

Clearly not in a friendly mood anymore he aim to yell at anyone that has disrupt his peace as though the news hasn't already.

When he walk out, his eyes caught the three men in fine suit speaking to his personal assistant.

" We are only here to issue a warning to the CEO of this company. If you would be so kind,show us the door to his office " one of them was demanding from Davey's assistant.

" What is going on? Why are you here to see me? "

The men all turn to see Davey. A smile appearing on their face afterwards.

" Oh! There you are Mr Davey Juan. We are here concerning this company of Mr Bert which you have taken by force from him. Now that the last son of Mr Bert is back I will advise you to evacuate this building in the space of three Days. Today, tomorrow and the next "

" On the forth day we would return and if you are still here we won't hesitate to take actions "

" The documents has been signed already by the true heir yesterday and so please understand "

The three men took turns in explaining things to Davey Juan but the man was too infuriated to listen.

He glare at them but didn't say any words. After the men left Davey couldn't help but feel threatened.

He could see all his staffs now staring at Him strangely.

" You bloody slaves should get to your damn table and work! " He thundered before disappearing into his office angrily.

He couldn't sit nor could he stop pacing. At long last his eyes laid on his cellphone, grabbing it, he dialed a contact.

" Hello? Dad? I think you didn't finish the job. The last son of Bert is back so you have to return too "

The car skidded to a stop and Persia alighted under the dark sky. A sigh escaping his lips as he gaze up to the tall building of his father.

He had been born in this particular mansion but have to leave due to some unpleasant event but now he's back finally to be the lord in it.

He headed inside immediately with his men Behind him. Garcia never leaving his side for any seconds.

When Persia step in, he saw the once silent mansion now filled with maids and Butler.

Garcia had done another good job just as he had done a great job by informing the Media about his return.

" Young master "

" Young Master Persia. Welcome back "

" Welcome Young master "

The maids greeted. the elderly ones has tears in their eyes while the young ones only stare at him in admiration.

" They are the maids who served your Dad in the past. After learning about your return everyone is willing to come back to serve you with Their lives. The Younger ones are their offsprings " Garcia explained.

This time Persia was filled with emotions. Everyone returning because of him. He could see as life has been unfair to them.

All this because of Juan, his uncle and Ma Melly, his step grandmother. With his jaw setting for determination,he motion for everyone to be at ease.

" I'm Persia, the last son of Bert. Thanks you so much for returning back for me. I won't forsake any of you. Let's live as family. That's important "

Thanks to his speech everyone grin and chuckle happily. Seeing their smile now Persia vow to never let it vanished again.

He turn to Garcia and gritted his teeth.

" I will make an appearance tomorrow. You can tell the Media to appear now. At the Bert's family graveyard and at the hospital where my grandmother is and lastly at the Bert's company. It's time for me to sit on that hot seat "

Excitement overwhelmed Garcia so much and hair on his pores stood at it's end.

" I will make the arrangements at once Young master. Uh.. about the ring you have requested for, it's ready "

Persia lifted up an eyebrow at first then he nodded. He tilted his head in a manner of thinking then he shrugged.

" I need to call her "

" No " Garcia interrupted with a smile." I will do that instead. Her name is Phyllis. She lives with her Cruel step mother and sister. Ironically she has been in love with you all her life but being the sister of your former girlfriend she couldn't approach you "

" God! I never know I'm so transparent. So you are spying on me now? " Persia protest with a smile.

" No young master. You are our only hope. We have to keep you safe, Watch over you "

" What do you think about her? A good match? "

" Since her heart is with you then you got nothing to worry about. When a woman truly love you then you becomes a king even without a castle "

Garcia's wise words filled Persia with gratitude. He finally nodded his appreciation and told him to send a car to Phyllis's hous Le and To bring her up to one of Bert's lounge where he would make his proposal.

Garcia left to do his bidding while Persia left to freshen up. Alone in his new grandiose room he took his bath and change his clothes before stepping out to meet with the lady he would be dating for another many years.

" She has arrived at the lounge as you have instructed but she is scared and confused " Garcia informed as he meet up with Persia beside the car.

" She should be. She's still unaware of my status now. Garcia you do not need to tag along with me. This is about my woman "

" And you means the world to us. None of us would leave you anymore. You should go with this car. We will follow behind "

Yes. This is what they meant When he was addressed as the lifeline of Masses.

Persia nodded his response and smile. He get into the car and the Journey began earnestly.

At last he arrived at the lounge. Persia alighted and headed to the grandiose lounge.

In the dimly lighted lounge Phyllis caught the silhouette of a man. At once she parted her lips and rant.

" I knew it! I knew it's you Davey. What the hell do you want from me. You have snatched away Celia from her man now you want me? No way. My heart would always beat for only one man. Sorry to have waste your trip and money for this but I think I should go "

She step forward, heading out but then the voice came, stopping her.

" Davey wants you too? "

Immediately Phyllis stopped abruptly with her heart dropping. She recognized that voice anywhere.

" Persia! " She exclaimed in great shock. " Persia what...are you doing here? What's going on? "

" I came here for you " He Said softly as he march forward to her. " You have asked me what I would do about your confession? "

Slowly he goes down on one knee before her to the astonishment of Phyllis. Persia presented her the ring Garcia had given him and the lady just have to gasp.

" Don't ask questions now my dear. Just give me your sincere answer. Will you be mine? "

It's like asking a thirsty lady whether she wants water. Phyllis of course jumped up in joy.

That night marked the first day of Phyllis being Persia's and till eternity she will only be the woman he truly love.
