“How dare you, you try rape my sister.” Natalie screamed.
“I didn't do anything like that Natalie, let me explain..” Before Freddy could say anything else,
Natalie had Freddy thrown out of the Hardcastles mansion without thinking twice.
Paulina and Tony smirked as they had succeeded with their plans.
Freddy returns to his little apartment on the low part of the city. As he enters the apartment he sighed.
Thinking about how stressful the past week had been. “Maybe it's for the best.” He muttered out.
Freddy then started to think about himself. “Now that I've quit my job. I have to start my own pratice.
I can't do that here…” He thought to himself looking at his small apartment.
He then picked up his phone and called Mago, the bank manager.
“Hi Mago. Sorry I am calling so soon. I need to purchase a building.” He said.
“Mr Freddy. Please remember you can call me anytime. I am your account manager afterall. What kind of building do you want sir?” she asked.
“I am looking for something a bit spacious with a garden and fountain.
I want to start my private practice there. I also want to live there.” He replied.
“Oh I see. I will send you a bunch of options with their price tags by this evening.” She replied.
“Thanks I appreciate it. When can it be ready?” Freddy replied.
At the hardcastles mansion, Mr George’s doctor's tell Natalie that Mr George’s condition has worsen.
Natalie begins to panic. She begs the doctors to do whatever that can be done to heal her grandfather.
Dr. Dris who is one of the new doctor called for Mr George. Remains silent.
“Miss Natalie we promise to try everything we can but we can't really assure anything yet.” One of the doctor said.
Dr. Dris then remebered that Mr Delbrose has a similar problem to Mr George. He was bit skeptical before saying.
“I know a doctor who once treated an old man with a similar condition.” he said quietly.
Natalie alongside the other two doctors turned towards him surprised.
“What are you saying Dr. dris? There's no possible way a doctor did that.” One of the doctors said.
“I thought so too, but I saw it with my own eyes. Miss Natalie I am sure your know the Delbrose. Mr Delbrose was one of my client.
I treated him for 3 years but he was just stable and never gaines conciousness.
Then this Dr, emm I think his name was Fredric or Fred, something like that revive Mr Delbrose in a week.”
Everyone was shocked by what he was saying.
“But Dr. Dris it's not just possible. I mean we are all professionals here perhaps it was just luck.” The second doctor said.
“Shut up. Dr Dris, this Dr. Freddy is there anywhere I can find him or get access to him. I would do anything at this point just to make sure grandpa recovers.” Natalie added.
“I don't personally have his contact but I can get it from the Delbrose.” He replied.
“Thank you and get back to me as soon as you do. Now you may all leave.” She said as she turned towards Mr George’s bed. She held his hands with hope gealms in her eyes.
The next day Sophia contacted Freddy and asked him for a favour. She told him that one of her business partners grandfather was in need of his services. He agreed to go.
Seeing the address she sent, he knew it was the Hardcastles. He contemplated whether to go or not after the humiliation he had face previously from them.
He then agreed to go for his grandfather’s sake. Meanwhile Natalie urged everyone in the house to be of their best behaviour when Dr Freddy arrives.
She was very expectant as she saw him as the only gleam of hope. She kept looking at the time waiting for 10:00 am the appointed time for Freddy to come.
“Natalie and how exactly did you hear about this doctor?” Harry asked doubting the doctor's ability.
“Through Dr Dris, he is one of grandpa's doctors.” She replied. The rest of the family members didn't really care whether or not the doctor was capable.
“Anyways, Listen up everyone. I am sure we know of the current situation happening here now.
For starters we still haven't been able to see a doctor who can treat dad and still the value of our stock has fallen by 20%.
We need to come with a solution fast before things get worse.” Harry said with a stunned face.
Everyone continued to mummer amongst themselves while Natalie remained quiet. All of a sudden John stood up and said
“This is all her fault.” Pointing to Natalie, who looked at him surprised.
“What are you saying Uncle? How on earth is this my fault?” Natalie asked, feeling irritated.
“My brother isn't lying. I mean only if dad gave the empire to us would this have happened?
Of course not, we are more mature than a young child who doesn't know her right from wrong.” Elizabeth added.
“Don't talk about my girlfriend like that.” Tony said from nowhere.
“What are you even doing here, you are not even a family member.” Daina, John’s wife, said.
“You are not a direct family either. Once I get married to Natalie, I will be the second in command in this house.
Do you understand so better treat me with respect.” He added as everyone started arguing pointlessly.
Natalie annoyed by the fact that none of them even cared about Mr George health made her even more angry as she screamed
“Shut up, all of you!” As she pants one of the maids rushes in…
“Miss Natalie, Miss Sophia Delbrose is here with Mr…… to see you.” she said.
“Please lead them in.” Natalie replied.
The maid went out and came back with Sophia behind her.
“Good day Natalie. The doctor is here with me.” Sophia said.
“Please, please, invite him in.” Natalie said, sounding a bit desperate.
“Ok then. Dr Freddy please come inside.” Sophia said.
Freddy walked in as everywhere went silent at the sight of him.
The alarm on Freddy’s phone kept ringing as Freddy tossed and turned on his uncomfortable bed. He struggles to wake as he had a very tough day yesterday. He then sits up from the bed to reach for his phone. “4:30?” He muttered. “Damn! I overslept.” Freddy added as he jumped off the bed to head for the bathroom. Freddy hurriedly got dressed. He opened his fridge only to realize that he was out of food supplies. “oh!''He sighed and headed for the door, just to realize his shoes were worn out, but he didn't have another pair. Freddy took the subway and finally got to the hospital by 6:00am. As he walked in one of his colleagues walked towards him. “Freddy you are late.” He said with a stern look on his face. “Dr Han has a special announcement for us, hurry.” He said, as they both rushed to Dr Han's office. Freddy was a bit nervous. “could it be the promotion?” Freddy thought to himself. They both got to the office and knocked on the door. As they both walked in, Dr Han looked a
Freddy stares at his grandfather speechless when his brother's voice interrupts him. “Freddy I’m back, I bought some sandwiches. Is that ok?” Ted asked. “I will teach you all you need to know when Ted goes to school.” His grandfather quickly added before Freddy left for the living room.While in the living room Freddy was puzzled and Ted noticed but thought it was because of their grandfather’s current state. “Honestly I am scared too.” Ted added. Freddy realizing his emotions were evident on his face, changed his facial expression. “Don't be Ted, now that I am here I will do my best to get him better.” Freddy added to lighten Ted's spirit.“I should go to school. I haven't been able to go for a while now because of grandpa.” Ted said as he finished his last piece of sandwich waiting for Fred's approval. “Yeah you should.” Freddy replied. Ted took his bag and left. After breakfast Freddy went back to Mr. Louis' room to see how he is doing. He thought for a while that his grand
Ted walks in with two glasses of water. “Drink then talk slowly. What exactly do you want from my grandfather?” Freddy asked the two girls. “I heard he is the only one who can heal our grandfather,”one of the girls said. “But how, our grandfather is sick?” Ted interrupted.“Ted, can you excuse us for a bit?” Freddy asked suddenly. Ted was surprised and wanted to question but decided to obey. “Ladies, my brother wasn't lying when he said my grandpa is sick. Why don't you take your grandfather to the hospital?” Freddy asked. The two girls stared at each other before one of them gathered the courage. “Actually we have, he even has a doctor currently taking care of him at the moment but nothing has changed. I once heard about your grandfather from mine. He had told me that he is an expert at healing and some form of catalyst.” She said as Freddy took a deep breath in and was a bit confused about what to tell the girls. “Give me a minute, ladies.” He said as he went to check with Mr
Freddy stared at an unconscious Mr. Delbrose and was a bit frightened. He wondered and pondered on if the powers would work. “Can I have some time alone with him please?” He asked a bit tensed knowing fully well that the three were observing him carefully, unsure of his abilities as a doctor. As sweat began to pour from his head little by little. “Why should we wait outside?” Dr. Dris asked, looking at both Sophia and Naomi trying to prove that Freddy was incompetent.“Let's just do as he said, since he's asking politely.” Naomi said, trying to let Freddy work. “Dr. Freddy, we really hope and trust that you can help heal my grandpa just like your grandpa could. Let's all leave.” Sophia said with a firm tone. They all left but Dr. Dris left reluctantly. “You are making a big mistake.” He says silently before leaving.Freddy stares at Mr Delbrose and tries one of the techniques which his grandfather taught him. He took the palm of Mr Delbrose and tried to connect with his body and
Freddy glanced and couldn't believe what he was seeing. He had received a black card from Mr. Delbrose. “A black card! This isn't just any card, I mean it can get me access to whatever I need at a particular time. It can also grant me the access to where the top cream de la creme of the society hangs out.” Freddy thought to himself after seeing the card. He knew he had to go thank Mr. Delbrose, which he did immediately before leaving the mansion to head to his grandfather’s house.Freddy set out to access the money the two girls had paid him for his services as he scouted for the nearest bank.Getting there the security man stopped him at the entrance, accessing Freddy's appearance. The bank being one of the three most influential banks in the city had its type of selected guest. “Young man, how can I help you?” He asked Freddy who didn't notice the man's disgust. “Oh good day, my name is Freddy…” while Freddy was still talking the man interrupted him and said “Look boy, did you
Freddy paced back and forth the room. Mr Louis watched closely as his facial expression changed. “Freddy calm down let me explain it to you.” He said with a calm voice. Freddy grab the nearest chair and sat down but was still tensed while he waited for his grandfather to speak. His feet kept tapping the floor.“Actually, you've been betrothed for a while back now. Her name is…” “I don't really care about her name, I just want to know how and when this happened?” Freddy added.“Ok then, let me explain it to you. You know I and George grew up in the same place before his father established a big company and they relocated to the city.” He replied but paused. “His parents didn't like me much because we were poor. Before George left he made a promise to find me again.” He said and chuckled.Freddy stared at his grandfather still unsatisfied with his narration.“And he did. We met at a conference almost six years ago. He told me at that time how sick he was, he also said his family had
Natalie's laughter filled the room while the rest of the family had various expressions on but none of which was excitement. “Why are you here? Who the hell are you?” Natalie asked as she stood up from her seat. Freddy was a bit puzzled to speak, he then gathered himself again. “I…I…..I'm,” he let out quietly. Harry stared at Freddy with a puzzled face before cutting him short “Natalie, do you know this young man?” He asked in a calm voice.“Not at all dad, Gabriel is this a joke? You can't just bring some random hooligan and claim him to be betrothed to me.” Natalie said, still laughing.“I mean clearly this man's not from our class. Besides as Natalie's father, how come I've never heard of him?” Harry asked Gabriel. “That's a good question Mr. Harry. This was a choice made by Mr. George himself. He also asked me not to disclose this to anyone unless something happens to him.” Gabriel responded. As Elizabeth and Natalie's younger sister, Paulina both stared at Gabriel with disb
While Tony was about to say something to Paulina. Freddy walked in. He greeted them both but none reply. “That's him Tony.”Paulina said, pointing at him. Tony stared at Freddy from head to toe, wondering how Mr. George would choose Freddy over him. Freddy proceed towards the door ignoring them when Tony shouted “Stop right there bull dog.” “Can't you hear. I'm talking to you gold digger.” Tony added. “Make yourself useful and go get him a glass of water.” Paulina added with a smirk. Freddy turned towards them staring. “What are you looking at? Didn't you hear what she said? Go get me some water, I'm thirsty.” Tony repeated.Freddy went to get the water. He brought and dropped it on the table before saying. “Next time go get it yourself.”As Freddy turned to leave, Tony spilled the water he got him on purpose. “Oops. Hey Freddy or Breddy man, please do me a favor and clean this up.” Tony said as he placed his feet on top of the table. Freddy was disgusted by his behavior and wo
