RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR REJECTED
When classes resumed, everyone already knew who Carlson was. He wasn’t used to being so known because in his previous schools, he wasn’t a social person. But here in Milton College, receiving that award made him stand out. So many students approached him to try and become his friend. He was always polite to everyone who tried to talk to him but he didn’t let any of them get too close to him. He wasn’t used to making friends.Carlson did not know it, but his smartness wasn’t the only thing people noticed, his good looks had begun to be something that mostly the girls of the school talked about. He was in no time voted the most handsome guy in school. This he did not know, because Carlson spent most of his time burying his head in his books and he didn’t have a phone so he wasn’t part of the blog created by one of the students. That blog was basically the centre of information for the students of the college even though it wasn’t officially approved by the school authority, every form o
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR BAD PLANS
William Milton was threatened by Carlson's presence and even though he did not know when it started, he began to hate Carlson. Carlson, however, did not even know who William was. He did not know that William was the boy they had seen bullying a littler, more timid boy along the hallway to classes on his first day. He hadn’t paid much attention to the scene that day, and he usually avoided associating too much with people in his class. It was even impossible for him to interact with everyone. This wasn’t high school where he had just thirty five classmates, this was college with countless students majoring in Business Administration alone which Milton College was famous for. William, who used to be the school's sweetheart and coolest guy due to his good looks, intelligence and the fact that he was Cade Milton's son, soon lost his touch because of the presence of Carlson in the college. At first, William thought that Carlson's popularity was only a phase that would pass by, but unlik
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR BULLY
One day after class, Carlson was walking back to his dorm room alone when he came across William. William had been observing Carlson’s schedule for a few days now and he knew that everyday after normal classes were over, Carlson always went to read at the library. He would revise all he had been taught that day and also read ahead of the next day’s lessons. Only a few students were still around by this time and it was mostly those like Carlson who stayed on campus. William hated Carlson for that too because Carlson’s grades were the best in class so far. William hated not being number one in everything. William walked into Carlson and hit him on the shoulder. He wasn’t alone as well, he had two of his minions with him, Rex and Benson. They always followed William around like lost puppies and did everything he asked them too. They wanted to be associated with William because he was the heir to the Milton fortune."Hey, watch where you’re going!" Carlson said when William hit him, he be

people or any situation where he would be forced to endure being bullied because of Williams. But Williams always sought Carlson out to teach Carlson a lesson. The teachers were aware that Carlson was being bullied but none of them intervened. They chose to remain silent because Williams was a Milton. Carlson didn’t bother trying to report to the school’s director, if the teachers could turn a blind eye then he believed that the director definitely wouldn’t pay attention to his complaint of bullying. He also thought of reporting the incident to Cade himself. He just had a feeling that Cade was nice and would listen to his plight. But the problem was that he had no access to Cade. Not just anyone could just waltz in and see the CEO of a trillion dollar company.At the end of his first year at Milton College, Carlson was of course top of the class and this made Williams hate Carlson more. How dare a lowlife scholarship student outshine him in his family’s school. The bullying got worse
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR HEART BREAK
When Jeanne’s birthday was approaching, he began to save up so he could buy her a really expensive gift and make her happy. She no longer caused arguments with him demanding expensive things, but he knew if he didn’t impress her on her birthday, then she would get very angry. He didn’t want her to break up with him, he really loved her and he hoped to marry her one day. Their second year anniversary was coming soon as well, and he was in his third year of study in Milton College now. He didn’t know what to get her for their anniversary, but he would think of that later since her birthday was first.Carlson called her early in the day to sing happy birthday for her and she was giggling on the phone. She was happy to receive the call and he told her that he would take her out to dinner later that evening, but that was just a plan to deceive her. His real plan was to show up at her house with his gift and surprise her. Her father had rented a penthouse close to the school campus and he h
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR BOARD ROOM HUMILIATION
Carlson's days at work were his best days and his life got better. Because of his excellent service, Case doubled his normal Internship wage. Now he was also Cade's most trusted staff, he got various benefits that ordinary staff could not get. He got things like tips from Cade, being allowed to more board meetings and getting first hand information of what was going to happen in the company before it was communicated to other staff. It was during one of these days as Carlson went about his duties that he came across William at the company one day. William still hadn't been promoted in his own internship but he was to attend a board meeting that day with his father which was why he was on the executive floor. The board had requested William's presence to evaluate his working schedule. The two men stopped before each other, William spoke first."Well, if it isn't the ‘most intelligent’ Carlson," William said, coming to a halt in his steps."How is it going, William?" Carlson asked, t
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR LEIGHTON AND CARLSON'S FRIENDSHIP
Cade let William leave the boardroom but decided that he would have a talk with his son later for exhibiting such rude behaviour. What was worse was that William had even walked out thereby also disrespecting the board members when he had been invited to sit in the board meeting as an evaluation of his preparation to take over the company. The board members would no longer see him as capable, and Cade also didn’t think William was ready anymore. So his plan to hand over the company after William’s graduation would not work. William would have to wait for a few more years before taking over as CEO of Milton Conglomerate.“I apologise on his behalf, Carlson. I don’t know what got into him.” Cade said and Carlson smiled.How can the owner of the company be so polite and friendly, yet William who had not yet inherited the company behaved so proudly? “It’s okay, sir.”“How about I invite you to dinner to make up for his behaviour. My wife would like to meet you so we can use this opportun
RETURN OF THE FORGETFUL HEIR THE TALK BEFORE DINNER
Carlson was invited to dinner at the Milton residence a week later when Raegan returned from her business trip. She had been in charge of organising a huge fashion show which was why she travelled. Raegan had also inherited the love that Cade had for his proficient worker, Carlson, because of how Cade always praised the young man. She always listened with an unadulterated attention whenever Cade talked about this young man who had been the top scorer for their scholarship scheme and managed to maintain that streak throughout his three years at College. Carlson would be in his final year of College soon and if he could keep his academic excellence for one more year, he would graduate top of his class. She wanted to see this young man for herself and understand why her husband took so much liking to him. She also noticed that her son scowled each time Cade mentioned Carlson's name, which was another reason why she wanted to meet the young man. She wanted to understand why Cade loved hi

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,
