Sage AthalarHi readers. I apologise for the unsteady updates since this month started and the short chapters as well. Exams started in my school since the beginning of this month. But don't worry, I'll make up for it multiple daily updates as soon as I'm done. Now back to the story. Maxwell is clever, he got himself robbed so no one would suspect him. And do you think Raegan will forgive Cade?

RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR ANOTHER VIDEO
Cade visited Raegan at her house immediately after being discharged from the hospital and taking the trip back to their city. His mother called while he was on the jet and he reassured her that he hadn’t been in his right mind when the video was taken. She asked him to use the evidence of the hospital toxicology report to clear his name immediately but doing so would require press conferences that could take hours. He had to speak to Raegan first because to him, she was the most important person. As long as Raegan believed in his innocence, he didn’t care who hated him. That was why he was standing outside her gate right now, but the security guards refused Cade entrance into the presidential villa. Usually, once they saw his car, he wouldn’t even be searched, the gate would just be opened for him, but the president gave strict orders that he was no longer welcome at the villa.He tried to call Raegan but she wasn’t picking up her phone. She must be ignoring his calls, there was no ot
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR CLEARING THEIR NAMES
Cade looked up and saw Raegan staring into her phone. From the shocked expression on her face, she must be watching the same video he just saw. He walked to her and took the phone from her. This wasn’t the kind of thing she should see, it was traumatising. Just like Cade’s video, it was released by another anonymous account and was already going viral. Cade dialled a number, “Take down the video of Raegan. If it’s not off every social media site in the next ten minutes, you’re all fired.” He disconnected the call immediately. Raegan still looked stunned. “Cade, I… that isn’t me. I was at home all through yesterday night. The CCTV footage can prove it. I would never…” He hugged her. “It’s okay, I know you wouldn’t have agreed to have that kind of video taken of you, especially not around this period when you’re working on an important project and even the smallest scandal can derail it. The video is obviously fake, your hair is longer now. The person in the video may look like you
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR RAEGAN WAS TAKEN
Weeks later, the Milton Conglomerate in conjunction with Maxwell Jordan began the actualization of the idea that Maxwell brought to the table for Cade. The beginning of the process was quite hectic for Cade. He had meetings with the board members to deliberate on the percentage of payment they were to receive and to pay the workers whom he would hire for the job. But soon enough, the process became quite smooth. Cade opened branches of The Milton subsidiary all over the country, and in no time it became popular across the country and gained massive patronage just as Maxwell had predicted. Cade was so proud of Maxwell's idea, that he decided to throw a party to acknowledge the genius of Maxwell's idea. The party was to take place on a weekend and Maxwell was allowed to invite as many of his friends as he wanted. And Maxwell was going to do just that. He had something up his sleeves and he was thankful to Cade for this opportunity to do whatever he had in mind. And so the day of the pa
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR CCTV WAS CLEARED
But when he got there, he did not see Raegan anywhere around. He stood outside waiting because he didn't want to just barge into the female restroom. He was hoping that she would come out, but when he had waited at least ten minutes and she had not shown up, he decided to go in. He first knocked on the main door, calling her name, and when there was no response, he went in. He began knocking on all the doors of the bathroom, but no one came out and he discovered they were only closed, not locked because the bathroom was empty. That was when Cade's concern peaked.He headed back to the arena, telling himself that he must have missed her, or that she must have been out socializing. He really hoped that it was either of the two. But he got back to the arena and found that she was not there. The party was coming to an end and people had began to vacate the arena. Now, Cade was more than worried. Raegan was not among the people who were leaving. She wouldn’t have just left the venue withou
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

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,
