"What is the matter?" two nurses rushed into the ward immediately worried that the patient must be in critical condition to warrant the urgent call. "Where is the doctor?" Oscar asked them, looking away from Amy who was displeased by his action. "Sir," One of the nurses sighed heavily upon realising that it was a false alarm, "You don't push that button unless it's important sir, we were scared because you pushed the emergency button." "My mother is speaking of death, and you think it's not an emergency? Where is the doc... Oscar's words were cut short when the doctor walked into the room wearing a worried look. "What is going on?" and before Oscar could answer his question, the nurse went on to explain what had just happened to him. "Mr. Oscar?" The doctor turned to Oscar for an explanation and Oscar replied, "She's speaking of death and the fact that she won't survive, I need an explanation to understand what exactly is wrong." "Sigh." The doctor walked past the
That evening, Micheal sent a photo shot of the partnership approval to Oscar, mocking him with his text messages. He made every word count, and even went on to say that it was the true CEO of the Slytherin Empire who signed the approval. Oscar fumed with anger, so much so that he put off his phone, not wanting to read the rest of the messages. This was what Amy had warned him about, the sudden claim of power. Oscar and Leo have searched through company staff data, and none of the one hundred and fifty-seven staff working in Axel City had a matching signature to the one on the documents, not even Aiden However, what they saw took them by surprise. The signature was the same as that of Mr. Aston Slytherin, Oscar's father, and they were puzzled. Of course, they knew that Mr Aston had not come back to sign papers, and even if he did, he'd let them know, so they concluded that the signature was forged, and this was deduced by Tom. Someone in the company was using Aston Slytherin's sig
"Mrs. Amy Slytherin," She replied, "I believe you know who she is, you can check the files or something... "I'm sorry, but visiting Amy Slytherin is very much restricted, and I can't change that, I'm so sorry," the receptionist replied, still trying to remain as warm and respectful as possible. "But, why?" She asked. "It's an order from the Slytherins themselves, so uhm, I can't breach that, it will get me into a lot of trouble. I believe that you can contact other family members to know how she's doing later on. Once again, I'm very sorry mam." "Hmm," she sighed in frustration, "It's okay, I understand, I'll just tell my cousins to keep me updated, I mean, she is a big deal and must be protected. If you see her by the way, maybe a nurse, could they help me deliver a message to her?" "Sure, we can certainly do that, what do you want to tell her, that you visited?" "It's a lot of things actually, do you have a pen and a paper?" She asked and the receptionist nodded and tore
Inside the elevator, she pushed the button for the fourth floor and took a deep breath, preparing herself for the worst, she checked to make sure that her ammunition was in the right places. As soon as she arrived at the fourth floor, she peeped outside the elevator before stepping out, holding the clothes to her chest. To her right was ward 1D downward and to her left, are rooms that were labelled, laboratory, consultants and a lot more. She also saw a desk at the far end of the hall, where a lady in a nurse outfit was typing on a computer. She paused and looked around, hoping to see a closet where nurses go to change, but she saw none. Luckily, for her, no one else was in the hallway, it was just her and the nurse at the end since this was an exclusive private ward, too many movements were prohibited. She walked up to the lady whom she presumed to be a nurse and said, "Hi," Surprise to see a random guest up here, the lady behind her, wondering where the security man had gon
She drew near Mrs Amy with a menacing grin, and rubbed her finger gently on her arm, before injecting the substance into her body. But before she could finish injecting all of it, she heard a sound on the door. It appeared that someone was trying to get into the ward, but couldn't because of the extra lock that she had installed. She stole a glance at Amy and smiled once more, before pulling out the needle and placing it on a tray that she had come in with earlier. "Bye, Mrs Amy, " she whispered into Amy's ear before walking to the door, adjusting her nose mask and removing the lock. The nurses and doctors rushed into the ward wondering what was going on, and they saw the strange-looking nurse who had not been one of the three that were delegated to serve Amy. "Who are you?" The doctor asked her, and Jade only smiled without giving a response. At the same time, the other nurses rushed to see if Amy was hurt. "It doesn't matter who I am, does it? I'm Nurse Alice, see it on
The news reaches Oscar at ten p.m that his mother was in critical condition, it got to him this late because the doctor had hesitated to call him when the situation was critical. The doctor insisted that he came to the hospital if he could, and that he should pray for his mother because all they could do was hope for a miracle. "Is she alive?" Oscar had asked, but the doctor did not give him a definite answer to that, rather he insisted that Oscar came by himself to the hospital. Worried and already thinking of the worst possible cases, Oscar alerted Tom to take him to the hospital immediately. While in the car, Oscar mumbled every single prayer that he could think of. Pleading with God to spare Amy's life, and promising the maker to be faithful if he does. As a devoted Christian all his life, Oscar tried to have faith hoping for the best. They arrived at the hospital in no time and how Oscsr rushed in was enough to make anyone think that he had just learnt about a lost rel
Learning that his mother was trapped in a coma, Oscar was both thankful and fearful. Thankful that his mother was not confirmed dead and that there might still be hope for her, but he was fearful that she might leave the world from there just like many tales he had heard. The doctor tried to encourage him to be less worried about it, assuring him that her chances of survival weren't higher than the latter, but Oscar being a human was already worried. He couldn't leave the hospital, staying in the ward next to Amy past midnight, talking to her as if she was listening to him. The nurses in there felt sad as they watched, but couldn't interfere unless necessary. He eventually left the hospital at one a.m after he realised that he must go to work and address a few things, now it was all in his hands, the Slytherin Empire and its affair, left to him to take care of and he must take it seriously or else he'll lose everything within a snap. Another thing that the doctor kept from hi
As he already proposed in his heart to reveal himself even though it was against his will. Oscar walked out of the receptionist followed by Tom and Leo and headed for building next to it. It was the same height, with similar architectural designs to the other one both indoor and outdoor. Oscar paused at some point to let Leo lead the way because this was the first time that he had ever been into the second building. Aiden's office was located on the fourth floor, and as soon as they got there, two men were found guarding the door. "Mr. Aiden is in a meeting, no one must go in," they said and Tom looked them from head to toe and held back from reacting, mostly because it wasn't necessary. "Please inform him that the CEO wants to speak with him urgently," Leo requested, trying to keep things calm and collected for the time being. "I'm sorry but Mr Aiden doesn't take orders from anyone, he is the CEO, the company executive's information has been updated, don't you know about this
