Fiona was livid. “How dare that bastard try to sell me a lie this huge? I regret the second I decided to ask him for help.”“Mom, calm down, okay!” Lesley stared at her mother with concern. “Getting worked up over a scumbag like Miles is not worth it in the least. Let’s just go now; I don’t even like being here.”The two decidedly left the hospital without even bothering to pay a visit to Lola or the sick Kelsey.Meanwhile, Miles was on his way back to his wife and daughter when he called a number. Luckily, he was alone in the elevator, so he could speak without caution."Young Master Miles, how may I help you this time?" Dorian's voice conveyed his pleasant mood. The old CEO was very happy that the Creek's heir had needed his help more lately.“Dorian, I need you on a very urgent search. Can you handle that for me?” Miles went straight to the point.“Of course, I believe there’s nothing you need that the Creek family’s name and global influence can’t obtain. Please, state your reques
Miles halted in his steps as he was heading back to his wife and daughter. "Dorian, are you trying to piss me off? Why are you suddenly talking about my dad now?" His tone relayed his mood which had now been soured at the mention of his father.“My apologies, Young Master Miles. Please, know that it’s not my intention to make you angry.” Dorian quickly made his intention clear before he persisted on the matter. “It’s just that….I want you to know that your father has been living in utter regret ever since you left home. It was like his closest family had abandoned him. Even though he knew you were still alive, your absence in his life still left a deep wound in your father’s heart.” Miles hated to admit it, but his heart clenched when he heard these words from Dorian. He could only imagine how much suffering his father must have gone through. This thought almost made Miles’s heart swell with guilt, but then he remembered that his father was the reason that his mother had lost her life
After Miles delivered the meal for both him and his wife, they settled in silence as they stared helplessly at the frail state of their unconscious daughter. It was early that evening when Kelsey finally opened her eyes and both parents rushed over with worry. They tried talking to Kelsey but she didn’t say a word, merely glancing around her surroundings until she became unconscious once again. This has long been the cycle of their daughter. She rarely opened her eyes, and it was always brief before she returned to a state of unconsciousness. The doctors claimed that this was a sign of Kelsey's body trying to fight her ailment.Lola decided to speak first. "So, how are you going to make a living now? You've quit your job, and what I earn as a sales manager at Styleon is not enough to feed you and me while trying to save up for the next batch of medications that Kelsey will need once she runs out of the current one.""Don't worry about that." Miles finally looked up at his wife's face
“Young Master, we found the perfect Bone Marrow match for little Kelsey!”Miles's heart soared with immense joy as he heard these words from Dorian over the phone. "That's great, Butler Dorian." He had almost forgotten that this was one of the great benefits of being a member of such a powerful family like the Creeks. "Have you made the necessary arrangements?""Of course, Young Master Miles," Dorian spoke with enthusiasm. "I've had the bone marrow delivered to your hospital. Also, I've ordered the chief residents to assign only the best surgeons to perform the transplant. I believe your daughter will be fine after this."Tears welled up in Miles's eyes as the thought of seeing his daughter's smile again made him emotional. While Lola had gone to dinner with her family and Lucas to thank him for something that the fraudster didn't even do, Miles had stayed with Kelsey instead. He had slept here when he got the call from Dorian.An hour later, Lola rushed over with teary eyes. “Miles,
It's been two months since Kelsey had her bone marrow transplant. During that time frame, she finally woke up and cried out when she saw her parents. Miles and Lola were left an emotional wreck as they hugged their daughter. After this, it took two weeks of proper monitoring before the doctors officially discharged Kelsey.The family of three had never been happier when they returned home that day and ate together. Lola had even allowed Miles to sleep in the bedroom, so they could both snuggle with their daughter.Meanwhile, Lola was getting furious with Miles. Every time she tells her husband to find a job, Miles simply claims that he has enough money to take care of all of them. As days turned into weeks, Lola saw that despite the amount of spending that Miles was indulging in, he had not run out of money even though he was currently jobless. Unfortunately, this only ended up making Lola Blaine even more scared, as she still believed that Miles had gotten that money from a loan sha
Miles's eyes widened and he quickly rushed forward to help his daughter up. He looked at the other girl with surprise before looking up to find that her parents didn't care about what their daughter had just done, nor were they reprimanding her for it. Meanwhile, it was at that moment that Lesley entered the store with shocked eyes. She had rushed over earlier to reprimand Miles for wasting away her sister's hard-earned money when she caught the sight of the other girl yanking away the blue dress from Kelsey's hand before pushing her to the ground. Luckily, Kelsey wasn’t hurt in the least, but she was quite furious as she got back up and faced the other girl who was around her age. “Awwwn! That was mean! That’s mine!”“Ha! You snooze, you lose!” The other girl stuck out her tongue at Kelsey in a show of mockery. “No, it’s mine! Give that back!” Kelsey lurched forward and she grabbed the other end of the blue dress. “I took the Cinderella dress first so it’s mine!”Miles was lost fo
Miles looked at the staff members with surprise and a bit of annoyance. “Why are my daughter and I being forced to return the dress when we clearly picked it up first?”The middle-aged woman glared hatefully at Miles. “How dare you? Are you accusing my daughter of stealing that dress from your daughter?! The audacity of your deceit!”“You!” The middle-aged man pointed a finger at Miles. “Do you even have any proof that your daughter picked up the dress first?”Everyone, including the staff members and some other customers who had noticed the commotion going on here, turned their gaze to Miles. They were waiting for his answer.Miles raised an eyebrow with a slight smirk. "Of course, I can prove it. Have you forgotten that this establishment has CCTV cameras? I'm sure one of them must have a video. Let's see who's lying between the two of us."The aloof expression on the middle-aged couple's faces crumbled slightly as fear gripped their hearts. In reality, they know very well that thei
“What the hell do you mean by that?”Lesley was shocked at Miles’s persistence in this matter. “If they call those security officers over, they will have your dumb ass arrested and locked away. Without a single penny to your name, how would you even afford a lawyer to defend yourself? Even if you have no care for your life, you should have pity on Kelsey who would have to grow up without a father, and my sister who would have to start working extra hours just so she could afford a competent lawyer to bail your sorry ass out of jail.”"Enough!" Miles stared coldly at Lesley, successfully shutting her up. "I've made up my mind to not have my daughter be bullied by such a horrible family." He easily moved Lesley aside before gently taking Kelsey by the hand and leading her back to their initial spot. "I'm not letting go of this dress today no matter what." He glared at the middle-aged couple, watching as they scooted away from him in fear. "As for you two useless excuses for parents, you
