RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR AMBUSHED
Cade's security staff had only assembled and were waiting for his command when his phone rang. He hurriedly picked it up thinking it was Raegan, but his flare was cut short when he remembered that he was holding Raegan's phone in his other hand. It was an unknown number calling and he had a bad feeling about it."Yes?" He said grumpily into the phone. "Baby?" Raegan's shaky voice spoke from the other end of the line."Raegan?! Where are you? Why are you crying? Are you hurt?" Cade asked. He was already furrowing his brows from concern. He was angry at whoever dared to take her from him."I'm – I'm..." Her voice went off and the call was cut off. Immediately after that, Cade received a text and a video clip alongside the text, showing Raegan in a room alone, her hands tied to the back of the chair where her legs were also tied. Her mouth, however, was not tied. Her face full of ruined makeup looked swollen, and Cade could tell that she had been crying for a long while now. His ange
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR HE KNOWS THE CULPRIT
Cade lost control of his vehicle after being slammed from the side. He was trying to get the car back under control when he was slammed again, this time from behind and he smacked his head against the steering wheel. Blood began to flow down the side of his face and the car swerved out of the main road onto a side street and crashed against a wall. The airbag inflated and prevented him from smacking his head against the steering again or worse, the glass window.Cade groaned and removed his seatbelt, then forced the half smashed car door open and got out of the car. He leaned on the wall for support and turned to find a way out before his attackers would come for him. He heard a car stop and footsteps coming in his direction but he was wounded and couldn’t run. He immediately contacted Macaulay.“I’ve been ambushed. I can’t talk for long. Track me through my phone’s location, I’ll try to keep it on me for as long as I can before they take it, just in case their aim is to kidnap me.” H
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR THE MASTERMIND UNVEILED
Cade was immediately admitted for treatment. He had lost a lot of blood since he was stabbed, and was so close to passing out. Macaulay however, had work to do. He contemplated reporting the case to the president before leaving, or just leaving to get his answers. He chose the last option after a little while of deliberation. Even though he told the president, he could do almost nothing to help other than increase security. Macaulay wanted to step into fire. He left two of his men in charge of Cade before he left early the next morning after making sure Cade’s condition was stable. "Do not take your eyes off him for even a second," he said to them. Then he left. Robin was a man of small build, popularly called Robinhood in his neighborhood because of his name. He lived a pretty normal, boring life on the outskirts of the city, and would only travel when he was needed for a job. No one around him really knew his source of income – not that they cared either – but they assumed that he
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR MAXWELL'S DOOM
The president was too surprised to speak when he was informed by Macaulay that Maxwell was the one responsible for Raegan’s kidnapping. Maxwell? Why would Maxwell of all people engineer such a plot to get his daughter kidnapped, and even attempt at murdering Cade? Was politics involved? He wondered so, because he knew that he and Senator Jordan were on the best of terms, and only talked just yesterday. Was it because he was Raegan’s ex? Despite the fact that Raegan and Maxwell broke up, the president hadn’t cut off the Jordan family because they were one of his oldest friends and also among his biggest political supporters. He had only told Maxwell not to come to the house anymore because Raegan didn’t want him anywhere near her. The president only invited Maxwell once in a while to parties for the sake of the family’s longtime friendship. But for this kind of thing to happen, he would have to find out the reason himself. He decided to go speak to Maxwell’s father, Senator Jordan."S
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR TAKEN AWAY
Macaulay found Raegan tied to a chair in the fourth room that he checked. He could see that she had been crying and wondered if Maxwell tortured her. "Did he touch you?" Macaulay asked as he untied her. She was still crying and whimpering so she could not speak at that moment. She was relieved to be rescued especially when she knew that Maxwell had planned to hurt her for denying his request. Macaulay was a bit confused by her response, so he assumed that Maxwell had indeed hurt her."What did he do to you?" He asked again. "I’m fine, don’t worry about me. I’m just relieved to see your face here because it means I’m safe now. He just slapped me but it doesn’t hurt so much now that I know I’ve been found." Raegan said, still crying. "Did he do anything else?" Macaulay asked with clenched fists.He wanted to know if Maxwell had sexually assaulted her but he didn’t know how to ask her that directly. But she understood what he was trying to ask even if he didn’t ask the question direct
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR VISITING HER MAN
Raegan walked up to Macaulay as they left the Senator's quiet compound. "Which of the hospitals was Cade taken to?" She asked, moving slowly and making Macaulay slow his steps to her pace. "We should go there," she continued, and Macaulay nodded in agreement. Then he excused her and went over to the president coming from behind them. "Me and Raegan will be going to see Cade at the hospital," he said, seeking the president's permission to let Raegan go visit Cade at the hospital. The president might insist that Raegan go home with him to eat, and change before going to the hospital, which was why Macaulay was asking first. Though he knew that Raegan would likely not agree to waiting much longer. She was obviously worried about Cade and until she sees him with her oen two eyes, she was not likely to stop worrying."That's fine," the president said. He was gloomy, and Macaulay could tell that it was from the just concluded incident with Maxwell and the Senator that made him so moody.
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR GUILTY CONSCIENCE ABSOLVED
Cade and Raegan continued to talk as Macaulay left. Raegan wanted to be as close to him as possible, so she got on the bed with him and held him close. She was so relieved that he was alive.“Have you had anything to eat?” He asked her.“Don’t worry about me, I’m fine,”She replied.“There’s no way for me not to worry about you. You were kidnapped. You need to recuperate too.”“As long as you’re okay, I’m fine. Like I said, Macaulay got me out before he could so any lasting damage. I didn’t want to go back home to change and eat when you were here.” She said to him and he sighed.“Call Gale and have him arrange a meal for the both of us. Meanwhile, this VIP room has a shower. You can use it. I’ll tell him to also come with a change of clothes for you. I know you won’t leave even if I insist so this is a compromise.” He said and she smiled.“Even when you’re on a hospital bed, you’re still thinking of my well being. I love you, Cade.”“You’re the one who’s here when you should be restin
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR HIT MAN
For a few months after that, his life was peaceful and devoid of any drama. He even moved to a calmer part of the city and bought a small one story house for the purpose of relaxation. He usually only went there during the weekends with Raegan where they would cook together and have dinner, then watch movies, or do some other activities together. The house was just for them to bond and be together without disturbance or distractions. Only a matter of time before Alex and his mother would begin to reveal their plans again. His father's mistress, Cassandra and her son, Alex, harboured their dark plans underneath their silence. They had been silent for a while now, but it was only because they had things up their sleeves. Cassandra, who was the master of evil plots, while her son only waited to be told what to do made new plans. As usual, this whole plot was caused by the same old reasons – Cassandra's hate for Cade and his mother, and Alex's resentment of Cade's position as the CEO to

FINALE
When they all returned back home, Cade and Raegan had a room prepared for Rosa. This was done to subtly convince Carlson to move in with them. They didn’t even have to convince him to move in, he willingly moved in from the dorm to their mansion to be closer to his mother. William was the only one who wasn’t happy with the arrangement. He hated that there were strangers moving into his home. He refused to talk to Rosa no matter how many times she tried to be nice to him. He never spoke to Carlson, and he was also antagonistic towards his parents. Before Carlson resumed school the next monday, Cade and Ragen made a public announcement to tell the world that they had finally found their long lost son, Noah Milton. The news became viral immediately. The board members already knew Carlson through his hard work during his period of internship. They were shocked to learn that he was the true heir of the Milton Conglomerate but they were also happy that they had finally found someone worth

GETTING THE FULL STORY
Carlson was a bit self conscious when Cade and Raegan came to pick him up from his dorm room at school. They didn’t even wait for him outside, they walked directly to his door to pick him up. Everyone in school who Cade and Raegan were, the college belonged to the Milton family after all. But they were shocked or confused why the owners of the school came to pick Carlson up. The people staying on campus began to share the news on the school blog and speculations began to fly around. Some said Carlson was in trouble which was why the owners came and maybe he was going to be expelled. Some said it was because of the internship. No one would have ever guessed the real reason was because he was also a Milton.Hewas even more shocked when he realised that they would be travelling with a private jet. He had never entered one in his life. It slipped his mind that he was travelling with trillionaires, so of course they wouldn’t travel with commercial planes. The insides of the private jet loo

WILLIAM AND MILDRED
“You sound like they’re going to kidnap me or something.” He chuckled. “I thought you said they would respect my choice.”“Yes, they definitely will. If you decide to stay away from them, they will let you do that, but they will never give up on you because you’re their son. You have no idea how much your disappearance broke them. I wasn’t born during the incident back then, but I’ve witnessed several anniversaries that they held for you. Every year, on the day you were taken, Aunt Regan was always so depressed that my mother always took her out to try and cheer her up. My dad does the same for Uncle Cade. They told me that having William made them gradually stop feeling too much grief. All the love they had for you, they gave it to him. Too bad he turned out to be a selfish brat.” She said and Carlson laughed.“Isn’t he your best friend?”“I’ve officially disowned him after his childish display. How dare he demand they send you away? The next time I see him, I’ll make sure to pull hi

SLEEPOVER
Carlson was still in shock when he returned to his dorm room. He had no idea what to do and for a moment, he began to regret why he told Leighton to stay behind. Maybe if she had come with him, she would be able to keep him company at least even if she wouldn’t have a plan of action. But he had thought he needed to be alone. Now that he got his wish, the silence was just too deafening. He knew he should use the opportunity to call his mother, Rosa and ask of the situation, but he just couldn’t seem to make himself move out of the bed where he was currently lying down.He decided to try and sleep but, sleep was not forthcoming so he called his girlfriend after about an hour of trying to sleep and failing. He didn’t know what to say so he just kept quiet. Leighton was waiting for him to speak but after several seconds, she realised that he may not know what to say because of the emotional state he was in. “Hey.” She said to him.“Hi.”“I know this is a silly question to ask, but I have

THE REVELATION
“Ley, what’s wrong?” Carlson asked her with a concerned expression. Even her parents turned to her. She was speechless, she just looked at Carlson and tears began to run down her face. She didn’t speak because this announcement was coming from Raegan. But after figuring out the truth, it just made her so emotional. “Leighton, you’re scaring me. Why the sudden tears?” Her mother asked but it was Raegan that spoke. “I’m guessing she understood the point I was trying to make. Since the rest of you are clueless, I will have to spell it out. The Doctor did a DNA test when Carlson turned out to be a perfect match for you.” Now, the point she was passing had begun to sink into their heads. But before any of them could speak, Raegan continued again, this time, finishing it up. "And when the results came out, it showed that Carlson…” Her voice shook as her eyes became teary. “Carlson is our son, Cade. Carlson is Noah.” And as though she had known to arm herself with proof in the case th

CADE'S RECOVERY
Hours and hours later, after the procedure was complete, Cade opened his eyes again. The Doctor allowed only Raegan to go in to see him. When he made an attempt to sneeze, Raegan ran to his side as though to stop whatever pain his sneezing might cause him. He wasn’t strong enough to receive plenty of visitors yet. It was relieving for Raegan, as much as it was quite burdensome, given that she would have to relay the news that she had just found out about Carlson to him sooner or later and it may be too much for him to handle in his current state. Cade went back to sleep and the Doctor took Raegan aside to speak with her.“How is he, Doctor? What are his chances of recovery now?” She asked with a worried expression.“Well, from what we’ve observed, his body received the bone marrow well. We still need to keep him here for a few days to monitor him closely, but from what his results show, there might not even be a need for added chemotherapy. It seems like just the transplant will be en

PERFECT MATCH
“How? How is this possible, Doctor?” She asked as she stared at the result in her hands through her teary eyes.“I have no idea. You told me your son was lost so I was really surprised when that boy turned out to be a perfect donor match. I was reluctant to do a DNA test but I knew it was rare to have a stranger that’s unrelated to the family be such a perfect match. And my suspicion was correct. Like I said, if you still doubt it, you can run the DNA test elsewhere to determine it’s authenticity. Mr Carlson is your long lost son.” The Doctor said.“We searched for him for years, and for a while now, he has been right under my nose and I didn’t even know. What kind of mother am I?” She sobbed and the Doctor stood.He went around the table and began to console her.“Don’t blame yourself for that. Just be grateful that somehow, he found his way back to his family. I know the story of his disappearance though it happened many years ago. I was still in Medical school back then when the ne

DNA TEST RESULT
“Good day everyone.” The doctor smiled grimly. "We have been able to diagnose Mr Milton’s ailment and…”“Wait. Why is he here?” William asked, referring to Carlson. “He’s not family, neither is he related to us in any way. This is confidential information, send him out.”William seemed to have recovered from his shock earlier and of course the first person he would turn his displeasure to was Carlson. “Is that seriously what’s more important to you right now, William?” Leighton asked with a scoff. “Will you ever outgrow your selfish behaviour?”“It’s the right thing to do, but of course you don’t agree. You’ve been blinded just because you’re spreading your legs for him like a …”“Do not complete that statement. Watch your words and tone, especially when speaking to my daughter.” Gale warned sternly.“I want him out of here, now!” William snapped.“And who do you think you are to give such a command?” Leighton asked. “Only Aunty Rae can send anyone out of here, or the Doctor.

OFFICIALLY TOGETHER
It was the day of their date. After that night that William tried to make Leighton his girlfriend, he invited her out on an official date and they decided to go on a day when they were both free from internship work. They planned to spend the whole day together and decided that at the end of the day, they would discuss their next action if they would move further and officially enter a relationship or wait for some more time. Their date included going to the city’s museum to see a new artefact that Carlson was interested in. At first, he had been reluctant to add that to their plans because when he dated Jeanne, she was never interested in things like these. She always called them too ‘nerdy’ for her tastes. Jeanne had been more interested in shopping, and cinemas. But surprisingly, after getting the courage to tell her about his fascination with the museum, Leighton had smiled and agreed to go. She told him that when she was younger, her father always took her to museums. Nowadays,
