It took almost three weeks for Davina to get close to Noah because he wasn’t really a social kid. He preferred to keep to himself and was more interested in solving jigsaw puzzles than talking to other kids in his school. But Davina was a bubbly kid, easygoing and easy to talk to. And she had the determination in her mind that she was helping her daddy on a super secret mission so it wasn’t hard for her to become his friend. Then she told her daddy that she had done the mission and asked when she could get her new toys.

“Being his friend is just part one of the plan.” Grey said to her as he personally prepared her lunchbox while she ate breakfast.

“When you go to school today, give him this special lunch I made for him okay? Yours is in the pink pack and his own is brown, you said that’s his favourite colour right?”

“Yes daddy.”

“Good girl. Make sure no one else eats his special lunch, okay? And when you come back today, I’ll take you to buy all the toys you want.” He said and she

    Raegan nearly fainted when she discovered that her son had been taken from school. She called Cade in tears and he immediately left work. Cade used all his connections to make the police issue a city wide search for Noah. But before they could set up roadblocks, Grey had already crossed to another city and went into hiding with Noah and his men. The search continued as the days passed by, Cade extended the search into other cities. Every lead they chased led to disappointment because they were only fragments of their speculations. Flyers with their child's innocent face covered the walls around the city, but the elusive truth remained hidden from Case and Raegan. They were at the police station almost every hour with no news and what made it even worse was the fact that no one had called to demand ransom for Noah yet so they didn’t even know if he was alive. Their journey took them through the darkest corners of despair. Sleepless nights were spent scanning missing persons databases

  • RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR   CONFIDING IN GALE

    The aftermath of the car accident had left Cade battered, bruised and unconscious. He looked peaceful even with the bruises that were plastered on his body, as he slept in oblivion. Day after day, Raegan sat beside him, hoping and praying that he would wake up again.As two weeks passed, Cade gradually emerged from the cocoon of unconsciousness, opening his eyes and taking note of a presence beside him — Raegan. Soon enough, he was fully conscious and widely awake. His bruises however, still needed more time to heal. On the day that Cade was to be discharged, the attending physician, a bearer of news both heavy and irrevocable, entered the room where Cade and Raegan were. "How are you doing, Mr Milton?" The doctor smiled at Cade. "Getting better," Cade smiled back at him. "That, I can see. And you, Mrs Milton?" "My husband is alive so I am well, doc," Raegan nodded at the doctor. The doctor, Mr Wills, was a tall, lanky man. He had a smile plastered to his face, that only made way

    Meanwhile Grey had gone into hiding with Noah and his men after the police began their search. They were hidden in an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town. They moved only at night, hidden inside cargo boxes mixed with the supplies in a delivery truck heading to Mexico which was why the police hadn’t found them yet. It took them several weeks to be able to get safe passage to cross the border illegally. Each of them were put into separate boxes, even Noah, though Noah was sedated so he wouldn’t scream for help. But the delivery truck had a fatal accident after crossing the border. Only a few of the boxes survived the collision. Grey and his men were among the boxes that went up in flames. Noah’s box was among those that fell out of the truck because he had been kept close to the top so he had survived. The company sent another delivery truck to gather up the remaining boxes that could be salvaged and transported to the warehouse in Mexico, but because the original driver was d

    Once more the couple embarked on the journey of parenthood, but this time, with more care and fear. They were so careful because they could not afford to lose this child this time around. Cade made sure to increase the security of the whole family, because he did not want to take any chances. Cade increased his bodyguards because he too was obligated to take care of the child. He also hired a new, and more efficient security staff who had military training. He reinstalled all CCTV cameras and increased their number, by even installing them in the most unlikely of places. Cade did not stop there, he connected the cameras to his room, so that he and Raegan could see what was happening inside and outside of their compound. He would not want to hear that his child was kidnapped or taken again. As for Raegan, he never let her out of his sight. The first few years of the child's life was indeed rigid with security. Soon, it was time for William to be enrolled in school. Cade and Raegan had

    The green fields of the multi crop farm were made beautiful by the rays of sun that cast their golden hues on the tips of the leaves. As the wind blew and the leaves that received light from the sun danced, a handsome young man raised his head up from his work to look at the beauty around him. The outline of his face was sharp and gave a firm edge to his looks. His body, quite muscular for a person who did not work out, glistened under the sun. These muscles weren’t built in a gym but by hard labour on the fields. His skin was tanned due to long hours working under the sun. His mother was too old to join him with the rigorous farm activities so she waited for him at home. He looked towards the oak tree where his father had been buried two years ago and sighed. Days like these, he missed working alongside his late father."Mi vida," Rosa Gonzalez, Carlson's mother, called for him from the house. “Come and eat. You’ve been working for hours. “Just a few minutes, Ma. I have to take my t

    Morris saw this as his way of returning the favour that Carlson had once shown him in school. Even though now, Carlson may have forgotten what he did for Morris, Morris could still remember Carlson teaching him a maths problem in class one day. That maths problem was so important to Morris because his grades were dependent on that problem which he had always failed in his exams. So, Carlson teaching him that problem was basically Carlson saving his entire grades and even though it was years ago, Morris decided to use this opportunity to show his gratitude for Carlson's good deed at that time. Soon after, Morris left, and Carlson also returned home. His mother noticed that he wasn’t in a great mood but she waited until he had eaten and taken a shower that evening before trying to talk to him. She knew her son so well that she could guess there was something wrong just from his facial expression and also knew that pestering him about it wasn’t the best way to get answers from him.“Wil

  • RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR   THE EXAM

    The day for the scholarship examination that Carlson and his friends had registered for was coming close. Carlson, though very intelligent, began to prepare. He had to stop farm work, just so that he could have maximum time to study for the forthcoming examination. Morris focused on chemistry and Carlson studied more of economics and finance related topics, while Robin pored over law related subjects. After they were done for each day, Rosa would have their meals waiting for them, even though they protested by saying they were not children anymore and tried to get her to rest. She even insisted they each take a glass of milk daily."It helps the brain," she would say, and the boys, wanting to please her, would gulp it all down. The boy's continued in their reading and studying for days until it was time for the examination. On the day of the examination, Carlson and his two friends made their way to the examination centre approved by the Milton College examination board. The location

    “So I’ve got good news and bad news, which do you both want to hear first?” Morris asked the two of them.“Definitely good news first, then the bad news after that so it won’t seem so terrible.” Robin said.“Well then, the good news is that we all got scholarships.”Carlson just smiled but Robin was already jumping and celebrating.“But wait! How can there be bad news? Getting the scholarship is all that matteres right?” Robin paused suddenly and asked with a wary expression.It was Carlson that got the nuance on Morris’ statement.“He said we all got scholarships, not that we all got ‘THE SCHOLARSHIP. You didn’t listen properly.” Carlson said.“I still don’t get what that means.” Robin said with a frown and Morris laughed.“It means we all got scholarships but not all of us got the MILTON COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIP. This is why Carlson is the brain of this group and why he’s the only one who got into Milton.” Morris said and Carlson’s eyes widened.“I got in to Milton College?”Carlson asked

    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,
