Andrew's vision blurred, and he felt himself being pulled through a tunnel of darkness. When his sight cleared, he found himself standing on a windswept cliff, overlooking a breathtaking landscape. The sky above was a brilliant blue, with wispy clouds drifting lazily across.Andrew stumbled backward, his footing uncertain on the rocky terrain. His mind spun with confusion, and his voice was swept away by the howling wind."Where am I?" he muttered, his words lost in the emptiness.Fear crept in, its icy grip tightening around his heart. Was this the afterlife? Had he truly left Lisa behind, forever trapped in a world without her?Panic set in, and Andrew's emotions boiled over. He wailed, his anguished cry echoing off the mountainside, bouncing back in haunting reverberations. The sound seemed to shake the very foundations of the cliff, and for a moment, Andrew felt the weight of his grief crushing him.But just as despair threatened to consume him, he heard voices – faint whispers ca
Lisa sat beside Andrew's hospital bed, her hand grasping his’ tightly as if willing him back to life. She stared at him and tears trickled down her cheeks.“Please come back to me baby, I forgive you, I forgave you even before you apologized. I love you, please don’t leave me.” She said in tears kissing the back of his palm. The doctor entered, a warm smile spreading across his face. She returned the smiles knowing it wasn’t genuine. She also knew the doctor’s wasn’t genuine as well. He just offered it to me to ease the tension I was feeling and I understood. "He seems… you know… stable," the doctor announced, his eyes shining with optimism. "The...device in his arm seems to be sustaining his life."Lisa's eyes filled with tears, her voice trembling. "Will he wake up? Are you sure he can make it? Should I have any hope at all?"The doctor nodded. "We're hopeful. He doesn’t seem to be in any danger at the moment though but he isn’t awake as well so let’s just keep being hopeful. Alth
After a few days, Andrew was finally discharged from the hospital. Back at the mansion, he felt a mix of relief and amusement as Patrick rushed to check on him every few minutes. When a familiar knock echoed at the door, Andrew couldn’t help but smile—it was Patrick again.“I’m fine, Patrick! You can stop hovering over me,” he said, stifling a laugh. It struck him as funny; only babies got this kind of treatment.“Does he really think I’m a child?” Andrew mused to himself, a chuckle escaping his lips.“No, young master, I’m here with something urgent. You’ll definitely want to hear this,” Patrick called from outside, his voice tinged with excitement.“Alright, come in,” Andrew replied, curiosity piqued. Patrick entered with a radiant smile, his enthusiasm almost contagious.“What couldn’t wait, Patrick? I’m trying to catch my breath here,” Andrew said gently, though his interest was clearly growing.“It’s about the company,” Patrick announced, and Andrew’s heart raced. This was incred
Andrew strode confidently toward the entrance of the luxurious mansion, his footsteps echoing off the marble floor. The warm sunlight streaming through the glass doors highlighted his demure expression. As he approached the security checkpoint, a burly guard, Joe, stepped forward, blocking his path. Joe's thick arms crossed his chest, and his brow furrowed. Andrew stared at him with disdain. He was one of the Guards who made his life a living hell in the mansion and Andrew felt like throwing a punch on his face but held back. "Hold up, Andrew. You're not welcome here anymore," Joe growled, staring at him intently as though he would beat him up if he made another move. Andrew raised an eyebrow, his eyes narrowing slightly. "What are you talking about? Will you get out of my sight this Instant! he scolded , his voice loud enough to alert another guard who started walking towards them hastily. Joe shifted his weight, his eyes darting to the side. "Lady Gaga's orders. You're not allo
The warm air in the garden felt different, grazing Lisa's skin. She couldn't tell what it was in the serene environment but it soothed her nerves, making her insides relaxed and propelling her for the question that lingered on her mind. She opened her mouth to say something but then hesitated and closed it back. Her thoughts were toppling over and she had needed answers to each lingering question on her mind. Andrew could feel Lisa's temperature change from just her palm, he looked down at where their palms were intertwined before looking back at her. "Is everything okay, sweetie?" Andrew couldn't help but ask, her worry was evident in her slight trots. Lisa turned to look at Andrew with a surprised look spread across her features. "How do you know something is bothering me?" She asked. "I can tell, sweetie, it's all over your face," Andrew replied. Lisa sighed and kept her gaze ahead. "I did not want to ruin our walk, Andrew, let's just keep that aside." "Oh c'mon now, it's ju
"And please allow me to invite you to the table up here with me.....well come on up here, Patrick. " Andrew gestured toward Patrick who held an expectant gaze on his face. Patrick adjusted his tuxedo before he stood up and made his way across the conference room, a smile playing across his face. Patrick couldn't contain his excitement as he joined Andrew. "Thank you so much, boss," Patrick said, reaching his hand out for a handshake. "I should be the one thanking you, Patrick." Andrew started, taking his hand, "You have managed this company well and you deserve this promotion." Andrew took Patrick's hand and shook it fervently. Patrick didn't know how to respond other than to let out another thank you. "Please let's give our new CEO of THE GENIUS GROUP OF COMPANIES, Patrick a round of applause." Andrew let out and all pairs of hands began to resound in an applause of accolade. "Thank you so much boss, I just cannot thank you enough." Patrick let out. "You are welcome, Patrick,"
Chapter 82Andrew couldn't help but mutter curses under his breath while he drove back home to his family. His insides were burning with so much rage that even the fabric he was clothed with scorched his neck. "That bastard really thinks that he had me in a corner didn't he?!" Andrew spat out, letting a wry smile that failed to reach his eyes. He concentrated on the road, making sure that his thoughts didn't distort his concentration on driving. In as much as Reginald was still in that company and two days had not elapsed, he was going to make sure that Reginald felt every inch of ridicule if he still insisted on staying in the company. "Reginald does not know the length I can to spite him. " Andrew let out, clutching the wheels tightly until his knuckles turned white. Andrew arrived at a red stop and brought down his glasses so he could get a better look at the signpost that was adjacent to him. "Hmm, this looks like a nice place to eat, I should bring Lisa here sometime." A sli
Chapter 83Andrew was still in shock when the screen disappeared. He wiped the sweat away from his face. The gate suddenly opened and the gatekeeper stepped out, signaling to Andrew to make his way inside the house. "The hell?!" Andrew managed to mutter after he had regained his composure. Despite the air conditioner working just fine, his clothes were drenched with his own sweat. His hands trembled when he tried to get hold of the car keys and start the car. When he couldn't seem to get hold of himself. He unlocked the car and got down from it, making his way through the gate instead. "Good afternoon boss, welcome home boss." The gatekeeper greeted. Andrew barely waved at him and made his way inside. The gatekeeper's face contorted in confusion, his eyes glued to Andrew as he made his way into the house with the car still parked outside. He noticed that Andrew's hair was dishevelled, he looked disoriented and his clothes soaked down to his shoes. "Boss, what about your car?" Th
