All eyes turned to Brandon who strode in with his shoulder high and his hands into his pockets, his cousin Elliott trailing after him, Brandon's gaze landed on Adam, and he stomped forward, taking his hands out of his pocket, he grabbed Adam by his shoulders, shoving him away,“What the hell do you think you're doing? Get away from my sister you murderer!!!" Brandon howled at the top of his voice, scowling at Adam with disdain,"Haven't you done enough damage already you poor and wretched disgusting bastard!”Elliot stood behind him, shifting on one foot to the other, a little uneasy as he had seen Adam in action, and knew what the man was capable of, he had only tagged along just to enter into his uncle's good graces once more and nothing else, he had no love lost for the cousin who had nearly left him to die.Taking a peek at her body, he shuddered and felt a sudden urge to regurgitate the meal he had consumed before coming in; he blinked as he looked at her lain form, surely that
As the words escaped his lips, Brandon flung himself at Adam, ready to pounce on him like a lion to his prey, but Adam wasn't having any of it, as he equally stood firmly on the ground, and decked Brandon with his elbow, and like a measly paper, Brandon fell to the ground clutching his chin while simultaneously crying out loud,“You bastard!!! I'll kill you!!!! You've succeeded in killing my sister and yet you want to kill the remaining Rowland heir!!! You're.going.to.pay.for.this!”Brandon seethed and bowed through gritted teeth, his eyes shooting venom and daggers at Adam who only rolled his eyes and bent to Brandon's level,“Your sister isn't dead, you may wish for her to be dead, but she's a fighter and she'll come through! I can barely say the same about you!”The words angered Brandon the more and he flared and tried to shove Adam by the shoulder, but he was as solid as a boulder, unmoving. Adam's words had hit home and the nail on the head, despite the love Brandon had for his
Adam and Adrien hovered around Amber's bed, while the others stared and gaped at her, the swelling on her face and body had drastically reduced and her face was returning to normal, not only that but her colour was returning as well, it was truly a miracle,“Unbelievable…this is unbelievable!!!”Sage Robinson exclaimed in a low voice, with widened eyes and a gaping mouth, unable to close his mouth nor blink his eyes. A part of him had believed Adam could heal Amber, but it was medically impossible according to all he knew for her to wake up and also to be this alert, he felt a surge of pride and accomplishment swell up within him,Truthfully, searching Adam out hadn't been a mistake, the guy had proven through and through why he had been Old Man Thompson's chosen one. Brandon who finally recovered from his shock, rushed to his sister's side and checked her body all over, he couldn't believe that the unrecognisable person that had been before him had turned normal and was very lucid,
Meanwhile, back at the Winston's residence, Mira had managed to get her mother into the house despite the woman's constant nagging,“How dare you invite that lowlife scumbag into any event of ours! How dare you insult me in that manner you ungrateful child!"Madam Ruth went on in her chastisement, leaving no room for Mira to defend herself,“You're nothing but a disgrace to me! You don't act like my child and sometimes I find myself wondering if you were switched at birth or if you hit your head when you were a baby!"Her words tore at her daughter's heart, but she was far gone in her attack to realise the effect it had on her daughter Mira,“There are men like Brendan Castro or even Russell Brent, who will gladly bow at your feet and give you the world, yet you won't invite them, you rather choose to invite a lowlife classless idiot into a gathering filled with dignitaries! You wound me, Mira!”“You didn't see men like the grandson of Marcus Raine to invite, but choose to rather inv
Doctor Emmanuel Weiss stepped in in his full glory with a gleam in his eyes, On the bed, Madam Ruth was whimpering and holding on to different parts of her body,“Argh!!! My bones are killing me and my chest is hurting!!" She cried out in pain, and Mira felt pity for her and rubbed her hands over her mother while nodding at the doctor,“It's ok Mum, the doctor has arrived, hell attend to you now"Madam Ruth immediately sat up on the bed as she heard Mira's words, a smile lighting her face up, her miracle doctor had arrived.Dr Emmanuel Weiss with the gleam still in his eyes strode to her and stretched his hand to her, “Madam, do not fret, you'll be well in no time. We just have to run some tests to know what the problem is so we can begin treatment!”"Then get it done! There's no time to waste!"Madam Ruth spoke rudely, and Mira lifted her head to send a remorseful look to the doctor on her mother's behalf, the doctor only smiled and gave a brief nod, before stepping out to prepare
Adam soon arrived at the hospital per Mira's request, leaving a still weak and reluctant Amber behind, he had only chosen to come out of respect for Mira and nothing else, it was obvious her mother didn't need his help, and he was fine with that.As soon as he crossed the threshold of Madam Ruth's room, she flared up and threw a shoe at the door, in reflex Adam ducked,“Get the hell out of my room you pauper!!! Your presence isn't needed here!”“Mother!!!"Her daughter chastised loudly while sending a look of remorse and apology to Adam on her mother's behalf,“I'm sorry about that Adam"He barely managed a nod in response, his eyes on the woman who was shooting daggers with hers, and sending him the worst of all venoms with her look. Adam could tell that she was getting worse, and probably at death's door, but Madam Ruth's arrogance had blinded her to that reality. With a gleam in his eyes, Adam tilted his head to the side to stare at the aggravating woman, and with a clear voice, h
Wanting to belittle Adam while their gazes were still steady on each other, she looked at the amazing Doctor Stone with a hand over her chest and smiled broadly before she asked Austin,“Dr Stone should be a very busy and highly respected doctor, how did you get him to come on such short notice?" Looking at the doctor, she could tell he was highly decorated and skilled, and she smiled deeper knowing Austin who had arranged it all was to be her son in law in no time, Austin feeling proud of himself, waved his hand dismissively,“Oh, there's nothing having money and the right connection cannot achieve. You should know how much weight my family name carries, The Parker family are no small people” he boasted and Madam Ruth nodded her head in agreement,The Parker family were indeed one of the top five richest and most influential families in their country, although they ranked the least, they were still formidable and strong, but not as strong as the ultimate family, known as The Raine'
Startled by their various looks of worry and horror, Madam Ruth sat upright and looked at her daughter as she demanded to know what was happening,“Why are you attacking the good doctor Mira?! Unhand him this minute" Mira hardly spared her mother a glance as she continued holding on to the doctor, Madam Ruth blinked her eyes repeatedly mad hitched her breath, her chest once again feeling funny,Still looking at Mira holding the doctor, she tried to adjust herself on the bed but found out that she couldn't move, ignoring the strange movement in her chest, she once more tried to dispel Mira from the doctor,“Leave the doctor alone Mira!" Her eyebrows scrunched together and she blinked rapidly again,“Why are there two of you Mira? And even two of the doctor?" She wheezed, Hearing that, Mira inhaled sharply and ran to her mother abandoning the doctor who looked clueless and out of place. Sitting beside her mother, Mira looked her over with bulging eyes and a curious gaze,“Aren't you fe
