The hidden heir of Wayne Forty-eight: Emergency operation
"Somebody call an ambulance!"A young man yelled out. They all rushed out of their car to help Ivan even though there was nothing they could do than to wait for the paramedics to arrive. "I don't think he is still breathing, I don't see his chest rising." A woman expressed worriedly. "He was on the phone, I think the person he was talking to is still on the line, somebody found his phone!" Another woman exclaimed. They began searching around for his phone until a young man found it close to the edge of a drainage. "Found it!" He raised the phone into the air to alert them all. He placed the phone on his ear. "Hello?""Hello? Hello? Please what happened? Who is this?" China knew something wrong had happened as all she could hear were people talking though she could not make out the words. She decided to remain on the line, hoping that someone would pick up the phone and explain to her or Ivan himself would talk to her. "Uh, the young man you were having a conversation with got i
The hidden heir of Wayne Forty-nine: Fear
Sweat dripped from the doctor's head. Fear was an intensely unpleasant emotion in response to perceiving or recognizing a danger or threat. Theoretically, fear caused physiological changes that may produce behavioral reactions such as mounting an aggressive response or fleeing the threat."Doctor! His heart rate is dropping!" His assistant exclaimed in fear. The doctor had suddenly froze out of fear.They had to repair Ivan's skull fracture, remove a clot, stop bleeding in the brain, and relieve pressure building inside your skull. Then if that went successful, they needed to attend to his broken bones and also his internal bleedings. They needed to be fast and very careful or they might lose him."Doctor!" She yelled out.Traditional and bipolar forceps, clamps and curettes, dissectors, drill bits and impactors, elevators and spreaders, hooks and probes, needles and needle holders, various types of retractors, scissors, spatulas, suction tubes and every other equipment needed was
The hidden heir of Wayne Fifty: Attempted murder
Officer Redd sat down in the hospital waiting room with his cap on his hand. He nervously squeezed on it as his feet continuously tapped on the ground. A doctor walked out of a room and officer Redd jumped to his feet and hurried to meet him halfway."Good morning officer." The doctor greeted."Morning doc, anything?" Officer Redd asked."Can we have a talk in my office?" "Of course." Officer Redd responded.The doctor led the way and officer Redd put on his cap and followed him.A sigh escaped the mouth of the doctor. "Officer Redd, this case of that boy is more complicated than it seems.""What do you mean?" "This patient you brought to me, the man that hit that student, he had a seizure. Generalized seizure activity may be a presenting symptom of poisoning or a preterminal manifestation of serious toxicity. Seizures may result from a large number of drugs and toxins, such as INH isoniazid, carbon monoxide, theophylline, cyclic antidepressants, and salicylates. But this man has
The hidden heir of Wayne Fifty-one: At the station
The station, as welcoming as it looked, was not a place where people visited and felt comfortable or at ease. There was a waiting area with chairs, a flag, statuary, a map of the county and rotary club plaques.There was also a public washroom and water fountain in it. A glass partition that had to be spoken through to gain entrance, a bell to be rung for service, doors with electronic locks and keypads.The dispatch room was filled with computers, phones, and TVs all for the use of the officers. There was a room or rather a secure armory for the officers to store their weapons and riot gear and it was always ready in case of emergencies.There was a small looking janitor's closet that contained a mop and bucket on wheels, a janitorial cart with cleaners and supplies, and many other things which were used to keep the station clean. Of all the places in the station that people found petrifying was the interview rooms. It had a plain table, some chairs, handcuff rings, pads of paper,
The hidden heir of Wayne Fifty-two: Twisted case
The wailing of sirens filled the streets as officer Redd hurried down to the hospital in his official vehicle. He had put on his siren to alert the other drivers that it was an emergency and even if he didn't wait for the traffic light to turn green, his other colleagues warding the streets would understand.He arrived at the hospital and hurried to meet the doctor who was already attending to the patient that had just woken up."Doctor..." He called out as he panted."Officer Redd! Are you alright?" The doctor asked as he went to meet him. He placed his hand on his shoulder and handed him a bottle of water from a nearby cart in the room.Officer Redd accepted it and drank a little from its portion. "My man." He smiled as he stared at the patient that was already sitting down on the bed. "Did you rush here because of him?" The doctor's eyes widened. "You shouldn't have rushed to get here, he is not going anywhere you know." "I know, I just missed him so much. We have a lot to talk
The hidden heir of Wayne Fifty-three: Survival of the prettiest
Mia sighed as she fell into her bed and closed her eyes shut. She didn't know how to feel, she was angry, sad, anxious, and curious, all at the same time. Why wouldn't she be? She hadn't heard from any of them and she had always missed her chance to call and check in.For all she knew, they could have removed Ivan's oxygen support and buried him already or Ivan could have woken up and gotten back to his usual life at school. The last thing she heard from Alfred was Ivan was in a coma and he was not responding to treatment like he was supposed to.The door to her room pushed open and her mother walked in with a concerned look on her face for her daughter. She went to her and sat next to her on the bed."I'm fine... Cause I know that is your question." Mia said before her mother said anything.Her mother didn't respond and just sat down next to her with a weary smile on her face.Mia was forced to sit up and she turned to look at her mother. "You don't have to worry about me, mom, I a
The hidden heir of Wayne Fifty-four: The Grahams
The Graham's residence was a prestigious home, a place to cause the jaws of visitors to drop in complete surprise. It was a place Tara had gotten used to already, since she was dating the youngest son of the Graham family. They took her as family and even gave her a whole room in the house where she could stay for as long as she wanted.Tara's family were rich but there was a difference between being rich and wealthy and the Graham's were wealthy. All she selfishly wanted was to be a part of that wealth but she didn't know there were paroles that they ran to get to where they were and she was not so sure she still wanted to be a part of their wealth on finding out.But in situations like that, it was usually too late, maybe hers might be different. She was strolling down the hallway out of boredom after Charlie left her all by herself in his room, though promising to be back in a few minutes but it had been longer than that.The Graham's had a study room with all the books one could
The hidden heir of Wayne Fifty-five: Ivan's choices
The tension and anxiety that lingered in the room was higher than ever. It was something they all patiently waited and anticipated for but when something related to Ivan's waking started happening, they all felt shocked.Doctor Winston rushed over to him to check him and asked China to assist him since she was a medical student. "China! Hurry and come over here, we need to check him instantly!" He ordered sternly.China blinked repeatedly, feeling a little confused before her senses finally returned and she rushed to join him. "Yes doctor Winston, what exactly do you need me to do?" Doctor Winston, who was already engrossed in checking Ivan, didn't even raise his head to look at her as his sole attention was to make sure everything was alright with his patient. "Just stay here by my side, I will tell you what to do." He responded sharply.She nodded and also began examining Ivan with her eyes until her physical assistant would be needed.Mia, of course, was starting to feel left o

Two hundred and ten: Happily ever after
The man explained how his mother told them their deaths had been decided by the Andrews. When Ivan's real father found out about this, he told his wife to stay away on the day of his accident and protect his child while he remained in the car with a maid who agreed to sacrifice herself for the safety of her boss. They didn't want to drag anyone down with them but the woman insisted. So their enemies would be convinced and Ivan would be safe. “I can't believe this…” Ivan muttered to himself. Even Alfred was a little shaken by the story. He didn't know why they didn't include him in the plan, maybe because they knew he would never let them go ahead with it. He held back the urge to cry. Ivan felt like he was broken to pieces. “My mother…” he said softly and all eyes fell on him. “Where is she now? Do you know where she is?” His father seemed hesitant but nodded his head. “She attended your step mother's funeral to show her last respect. She came around sometimes just to check on yo

Two hundred and nine: His mother's location
Mr Shay felt grateful as his plane finally landed. He was never a man who enjoyed flights, he preferred to travel by road for a trip or even by water which he extremely detested. But he would be more than happy to travel by water than to ever step foot in a plane. Without wasting time, he hurried out of the plane with the maids assigned to him. They all helped him with his bags and loads as they walked into the airport. He noticed his son standing not too far from him, waiting for his arrival. He had not expected his son to be around for his arrival since Ivan said he had a white collar job. But he was very pleased to see him after his long trip. His lips spread into a wide smile as he walked towards his son. “Ivan, my dear boy!” He called out to him. Several men moved closer to Ivan at once in a defensive way and Mr Shay froze in his steps. Why was his son being guarded like some national treasure?“It's okay, he's my dad.” Ivan said to them and they backed away with each of th

Two hundred and eight: The airport
Ivan dressed up and went down for breakfast. On arriving at the dining table, LD was dressed up all nice and cutely and she wore a big smile on her face.She was dressed in a cute pink dress and her Goldie locks hair was made into two ponytails. Of all the beautiful accessories on her, her smile was the most beautiful. She was so beautiful that Ivan couldn't help the smile that worked up his face. “Well look at my beautiful girl,” he said as he picked her up from the ground and gave her a twirl.Her happy giggles filled the room and magically lifted the spirits of everyone sitting at the table. Truly, nothing could make a person more happy than a child's laughter. He placed her back on the floor and kissed her head. “You look amazing.”“Mommy says she wants me to look beautiful when my new baby brother or sister comes home. Can I have a baby brother?” LD asked with a bright smile on her face. The smile on Ivan's face disappeared in almost an instant. He flashed a smile at his daug

Two hundred and seven: Morning breakdown
The sun rose in the blue sky and spread its ray down on Ivan's face. Anticipation had kept him awake all night long, all he could do was think about his dad and his return that day. When his dad returned, he would really get answers about everything he wanted to know. Well hopefully that was. Would his dad really remember much? It had been decades ago, would his memory still be intact? That much worried him and kept him awake all night. His mother was gone and sadly before he could ask or even tell her anything. Not even a final goodbye. The memories of his mother lying lifelessly in her bed was to hunt him for a very long time. He never even knew when she was already falling sick, she seemed so healthy that he didn't even believe it at first when he found her in her bed. Oddly strange of her to ask a married man to pass the night at his mother's, that was what he believed but he went anyway. Those were the moments he would cherish forever. No wonder she hugged him so much that

Two hundred and six: Early flight back
They all went inside and sat at the dining table. The maids surrounded them and began serving slices of pies. LD climbed down from her seat that was next to her grandmother. “Daddy!” She wailed as she hurried to Ivan. Ivan immediately caught her in his arms and lifted her into his lap. “What's wrong? Is there something bothering you?” She nodded her head but said nothing. They all watched her in fear. Neither of them understood what was wrong with her to make her almost tear up and worry and anxiety swallowed them up as they waited for her to confess to her father. “Go ahead Darling, you can tell me anything.” Ivan said in a soft tone. Janet was already on her feet and she hurried to the other side of Ivan's chair where she could meet with LD's gaze. Placing her hand on her husband's thighs, she crouched down next to him. LD still remained silent in her father's lap with her arms wrapped around his neck.“Here, come on, whisper it in my ear.” Ivan leaned in closer to her with h

Two hundred and five: Her Majesty
The car pulled up at the front space of the mansion and their driver hurried down to open the door for them. Three smiling faces stood close to a fountain, standing impatiently for Ivan and his wife to arrive. The driver opened the door but no one got out. Alfred wondered what was keeping them but he declined when Mrs Banks said to go to them instead. He decided they would just wait for them to join them. “We'll be a minute.” Ivan said to his driver and the handsome young man nodded his head and gently slammed the door back. “Is there… is there a problem?” Mrs Banks asked again but Alfred's decision to wait behind still stood. “They'll come out eventually, let's just wait and see what is going on first.” Alfred responded in a respectful manner and Mrs Banks nodded her head. Mr Banks didn't bother to protest or even utter a word. He knew that if he were to speak, he would have to break his perfect smile and he worried he would not be able to get a smile as perfect as that again.

Two hundred and four: His own happy ending plan
Heather stood there, stunned, just as every other woman standing in the room. She was sure she had never heard London laugh before. She hadn't even seen the girl smile ever since she was brought to the shelter. Janet hadn't expected less though. Living with Ivan for over five years, she knew the kind of soul he was and she trusted that whatever he put his mind to, he was sure to achieve it. She couldn't have been more proud of him. Ivan carried little London back to his wife and Heather. “London, say hello to your new mom.” Janet smiled and waved at her. “Hello, my name is Janet.” “Hi, I can call you mom, right? Or do you want me to call you Janet?” London sharply responded with a smile. Janet chuckled softly. “You're such a smart little girl. You can call me mom,” she reached forward and gently smoothened London's Goldie locks hair. “I'd like that.” London smiled and nodded her head. “Will you carry me in your arms?” Janet opened her arms wide for her. “Come here.”London unw

Two hundred and three: London
Ivan managed to wear a smile on his face even though his heart was shattered to pieces. “Hello there, my name is Ivan.” He said with the brightest smile he could summon. “Do you want to tell me your name?”She silently stared at him, although it seemed as though she wasn't as scared as before. Yet she didn't utter a single word and neither did her gaze leave Ivan. “You don't have to tell me if you don't want to. I don't force you to do anything you don't want to do. Although I would really like to know your name. I bet it must be as pretty as your eyes.” Ivan spoke softly. Even though he already knew what her name was, he was hoping to hear her say it to him. “London…” the scared little girl responded softly, almost as soft as a whisper. Ivan smiled brightly from his heart now, a smile that reached his eyes. “I knew it, I knew it would be something pretty. Do you remember my name, London?” She nodded her head, her knees folded in front of her to rest on her chest. “Do you want t

Two hundred and two: At the orphanage
Breakfast was served the next morning and as Ivan had mentioned, they had small talks about the best choice of orphanage to go to and the list had been summed up to the best three. “Okay,” Alfred started. “So we are down to smile orphanage, bright sun and victorious home. And the decision is down to you, young master Wayne. Which one would you like to go to today?” Ivan relaxed into his seat and let himself think for a minute before answering. “I got it!” All eyes fell on him as he exclaimed. “Today, well go to bright sun orphanage,”“Excellent choice young master Way–”“I'm not finished.” Ivan cut Alfred off. “Today, we'll go to bright sun orphanage, tomorrow, we'll go to smile and the day after, we'll go to victorious home.” Alfred was thrown into a pit of confusion. “You… you want to visit all three places?” His brow arched subconsciously as he questioned. “Why not? Jane wants to adopt three kids after all, nothing limits us to adopting from one place or is there a rule or some
