“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

    Cade Milton walked over to the private jet waiting on the airstrip to take him to a different country for his business trip. He had been planning this for about a week. Their head company abroad that had been left in the management of his half brother, Alex, was having several issues. Cade was the rightful heir of the Milton Conglomerate because he was the first son of their father, Mackenzie Milton. Alex was the product of Mackenzie’s affair with an actress he had met on one of his numerous business trips. Cade and his mother hadn’t known about the affair or that Mackenzie had an illegitimate child till about seven years ago when the scandal had been exposed. Cade had just been 19 years old then, about to enter his second year in college. The scandal had ruined his family. So many things happened at once, his mother filed for a divorce, the board of directors voted his father out as the CEO because the scandal made their stocks drop so low that the company almost went out of busines

    But he didn’t die. A fishing boat that had just been returning from a successful fishing trip had been close to the bridge when it happened. As Cade fell off one side of the bridge, the driver of the car lost control and the car fell off the other side of the bridge. But the fisherman knew that he couldn’t save them all, so he steered his ship towards the direction he saw Cade fall to and yelled for his crew members to call the authorities for help while preparing to dive into the water to try and rescue who they could. It took several minutes before one of the men in the water found Cade. They were only able to rescue him by the time the police came with an ambulance. The men that had tried to kill him in the car had died due to the impact when the car dropped into the water. The medical personnel tried several methods to resuscitate Cade and they were all relieved when he coughed out the water in his lungs and began to breathe. When he opened his eyes, they checked his vitals and

    FOUR YEARS LATER ** Dennis was more devastated than he was surprised. He tried to recall ever being the cause of what was before him, but nothing came to mind. His wife, Hailey, was pregnant. She just handed him the test results that proved it but he was so stunned that the paper dropped from his hand and fell to the floor. Dennis looked from the paper to Hailey, and then back to the ground. How did this happen? He had never touched Hailey sexually, they had barely even kissed since they got married. It was mostly occasional pecks that he gave her, which she was usually quick to wipe off with her hands when she thought no one was watching. All this time, she claimed to be off sex for medical reasons Dennis did not understand, but respected still because he loved her. She even brought him a doctor’s report on their wedding night years back to show him that she wasn’t lying and made him promise never to tell anyone. So what was going on? How could she be pregnant when they had never

    The darkness of the evening was beginning to thicken and a cold wind blew into the room through the open windows. It seemed like it wanted to rain, but Dennis was quite sure that the threat was empty and it wouldn't rain. He sat on the bed since Hailey left the room, thinking and wondering what to do with his life. He was grateful that he at least had a chance to spend one more night under this roof before he'd take off tomorrow. He would pick up whatever he was allowed to take tomorrow and leave. He didn’t need much anyway, just a bag full of clothes, some toiletries, and maybe the laptop that the late Mr Bellwether had bought for him a while ago. If they refused to give him any money, at least he could sell that and use the money from the sale to get by for a while. As for the other necessities he needed to be alive, he would find a way out one way or another. He placed his chin on one palm, and the other palm on his knee. He tried to recall anyone he knew who'd be of help to him, a

    She went closer to the man to get a closer look at him. She was afraid she had killed a stranger. She leaned down, put her palm over the man's face and when she was certain he was still alive, she heaved a sigh of relief and began to think of what to do. She looked at the man again, wondering loudly if she should help him or just leave him there. She knew that leaving him there would be cruel, she didn’t see any blood but what if he had a concussion or something? He could die if he's not properly attended to. Even if he had been the one to bump into her, she had been the one who pushed him and caused him to fall, though his fall hadn’t been her intent. But if she helped him, he could report her and she couldn’t afford a scandal, else her father would be very angry at her. Because of his political status, even the smallest incident would become a major story and he couldn’t afford anything affecting his campaign. Leaving would be easier to do but she just didn’t have the heart to be s

    Cade knew he had to act fast. Since the men hadn’t seen him yet, he still had the element of surprise on his side but he knew that it would only give him a few seconds of advantage over them. The men were only a few steps away from them and as soon as the men got close enough, he jumped off the floor. caused the men to fall simultaneously. The woman was startled by his abrupt movement, and it also made him feel a little woozy, but he achieved his aim. His movement had also startled the men and they both fell back with startled gasps. The thud from behind made the lady look in that direction, and she stared in awe at the men on the floor. She wondered where they came from but as she saw their hostile expressions and the rope and sack each man held, she immediately knew that they were dangerous. She could not even bring herself to scream thinking that she might make the situation worse, but she really wanted to scream. She didn’t know it, but she was already shaking. She hadn’t come wit

    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,
