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
Everyone watched as every single piece of clothes on the aisle was packed up by the boutique’s staff members. Once everything was settled, all the pairs of eyes turned to Miles.“Well, the clothes have been packed for you.” The middle-aged man raised a skeptical eyebrow at Miles. “It’s time for you to pay.”Miles sneered before digging into his jacket pocket only for his hand to touch a space. His smile dropped in place of a confused expression as he turned to his jeans pocket only to find that his card was missing. That was when he recalled that he had left his premium black card at home. He had been so excited to spoil Kelsey for the day that he had actually forgotten to take the one thing he needed."What's the matter, you low-life scum?!" The middle-aged woman glared hatefully at Miles. "The staff is waiting for you to pay." There was a moment of silence as everyone waited for Miles to say something. On getting nothing but silence from him, the middle-aged woman burst out into lau
Everyone was shocked when they heard the words from the mall manager’s mouth. The unimportant audience quickly stopped their badmouthing as they wondered if they had heard the manager right. The middle-aged couple froze on the spot as their gaze slowly shifted onto Miles’s face. At this moment, they saw him in a totally different light now. Lesley was not spared in the least, her eyes became wide open and so was her mouth. She turned her gaze to find Miles standing straight as the mall manager remained bowing before him. She couldn’t understand a shred of what was going on. The staff members glanced at each other in confusion which then slowly turned to immense shock. One of them walked forward. “Manager, who is he?”"How dare you even ask that dumb question?" The mall manager, who had arrived with a very calm demeanor, suddenly became easily irritated while addressing his employees. "Are you all dumb or what?! Are you telling me you couldn't recognize a top superior?! I told you ab
