"Oh, alright, I'm happy to hear that, so hopefully when I return to Wast Arcadia, she'll be awake." Oscar smiled, with the phone in his ear. The good news about his mother's response to treatment was something he longed for, and it has already made his day and got him thinking about going back. "Thank you so much doctor, and yes, I am fine, I wasn't injured during the incident, and please, just in case she's allowed to wake up before my return, don't let her hear about any of this." He appealed to the doctor and he agreed, of course, no one wants to burden the recovering woman with such a story. "Alright have a nice day," Oscar ended the call, and walked to the dining table where the maid had placed his tea along with a few slices of bread, and some fried eggs as he had requested. He sat down and began to scroll through the social network and the news about the collapsed hall was carried all over the Internet. He watched numerous gruesome videos, and genuinely couldn't believe
//Location: Currently unknown // A man was seated in his living room with his legs crossed, and another man sat on the couch next to him with his elbow on his knee and his fists holding up his chin. "We might need to give it a little bit more time sir, I can not confirm whether or not he lost his life in the incident, but I can assure you that there was no way that he could have escaped," said Miles, the same man who had shown up at the conference and has set a time on his watch. He stood before the man who had asked him to do the job, and the man seemed rather disappointed in him than satisfied. "And how long do I have to wait?" Asked the boss, "I didn't ask you to blow up the conference hall, did I? I specifically said that you should find the acting CEO of Slytherin Empire and end him, isn't that what I said." "We didn't have any clue, sir," Miles replied, "Was I supposed to tell you to find clues as well?" the boss yelled as he stood up immediately in a fit of rage, "
"And you think he likes you?" Bri asked with a smile written all over her face, she was probably more excited than Dora herself who seemed indifferent. "I'm assuming," Dora replied, "He looks like one of these secretes rich men, and if there's one thing I know about this set of people, is that they are mean and ruthless, I don't want to put myself in a sticky situation... plus, I'm still not certain that he likes me." "Girl," Bri exclaimed and threw herself on the bed where Dora lay, "Where is the Dora that said she'll go with any man she sees, rich poor, as long as she gets pregnant... "I never said that," Dora argued. "That was two days ago," Bri interjected with a smirk. "I know, but I didn't say it like that, I have had a change of heart okay, he's a nice man, he saved my life, he kept me company, that's good and fine, this is not a storybook world where we just magically fall in love and have a happy ever after." "You are overthinking," Bri said, taping her on t
"Oh, hey, I didn't expect to see you here," Oscar replied with an expression of surprise. "Yes, I came back here later when she got back from work, you already know my reason," she uttered immediately followed by a slight chuckle. "By the way, hope your friend is fine?" He asked and Dora raised a brow wondering what he meant by that. "She had gone to put off the cooker, hope the food didn't get toasted because of me?" "No, not at all," Dora replied before he could finish his statement. She could barely take her eye off him, because, unlike the other day, he was too charming, the car behind him was the same as yesterday, but what kept her puzzled the whole time was the pack in his hand. "Oh no," she thought, "Now he's buying me gifts, what for? what is that even? flowers, bracelets? sigh Dora, it may not even be for you so just shut up." "Are you free to go out? like for lunch?" Oscar's voice disrupted her train of thoughts. He had rehearsed this request so many times in
It was past midnight when Oscar got back to the Slytherin mansion, and he couldn't wait to hit the bed because despite how comfortable the first-class aeroplane might be, it would never beat the comfort of his king-sized mattress. He already had a lot planned for the next day, and as long as nothing ruined that for him, Oscar was more than excited to be back. "Welcome back, sir!" The voices of guards and maids welcomed him from all corners of the mansion, but he was too sleepy to respond. Before going to bed, he checked his phone to see if he got a text or at least a missed call from a strange number, which he wished was Dora but saw none. So much for taking his mind off her. He had a peaceful night's rest, but the same can not be said for the morning. Oscar woke up with the most insane headache, feeling as though his brain had swelled up so much and was on the brink of exploding by the second. At first, he blamed the lack of sleep and decided not to get out of bed for anoth
"I overheard the argument," came her mother's voice from behind the couch. Ellen quickly wiped off her tears and said, "It's nothing to worry about, why do you care so much anyway?" "Hmm," her mother sighed heavily before taking her seat on the same couch that her daughter lay on, "What is it this time?" She asked, but Ellen did not respond, she just kept her eyes fixed on the blank television screen as if no one was speaking to her. "You know, I've been thinking about this for a while, Oscar is going to do everything he possibly can to make sure we suffer worse than... than we put him through." she stuttered. "We?" Ellen asked her, "We did not do anything mom, it was all you, don't impose anything on me, you and Father are the cause of all of this." "I'm not blaming you, Ellen," she cut her off "I'm only saying that he will do anything possible to have his revenge in double fold." "What makes you think that I don't already know that he would do that?" Ellen asked
"Are you okay lady?" one of the cops approached Ellen and helped her up to her feet. "Thank you," she uttered but was too stunned to even speak about her car that had just been taken right before her eyes. "Don't worry mam, we will get the car back to you in no time alright? we are on it," the cop tried to assure her, and at the same time another man, tall and muscular approached them from behind and asked. "Is the lady okay?" That voice sounded too familiar and Ellen quickly turned around to see who it was. Sure she had no idea who the man was, but she had seen him because he seemed to be with Oscar wherever he went. And Tom on the other hand recognised the lady in front of him, quite a coincidence that she was the one whose car was stolen. "It's you," he said to her, the fact that she was Oscar's ex-wife whom he now despised, doesn't mean he should be apathetic all at once, besides it was for Oscar to deal with not him. "Hi," Ellen mumbled, staring at him like she had
Later the same day, Oscar was visited by Stephen, the same spy who he had sent to investigate the mysteries concerning his father's disappearance. At first, Oscar only assumed that Stephen had come to see him after his return from travel, because he believed that one week was not enough to carry out the assignment, but turns out that he was wrong. "I'm sorry about your health sir, I believe that the trip must have taken a toll on your health," Stephen said, occupying the seat next to Oscar in the living room. "Thank you, Stephen," Oscar acknowledged, but he wasn't going to mention anything related to the incident at the hall. "I will just go straight to the point sir, so that you can get back to rest... "No, take your time," Oscar interjected, "I've been resting all day, so I'm all ears." "Okay, sir." Stephen nodded and cleared his throat. "I'll start with the day you gave me this assignment because I began my research that night." "I came across a bunch of articles as to ho
