“ Just because you were lucky enough to save my grandfather doesn't mean that you aren't a quack” Tyla scoffed, glaring at Elijah.“ Thank you so much, Mr. My father would have been dead if not for you” Mr Forbes, Tyla's dad , appreciated Elijah's efforts.“ You're welcome sir, unlike someone who is ungrateful,” Elijah said, making Tyla scoff loudly.“ If you're waiting for me to thank you for saving my grandfather’s life, then you will have to wait for eternity “ Tyla said, while rolling her eyes.“ Anyways, I wasn't waiting for you to thank me, what matters is that I already saved your grandfather, but I urge you to learn how to be grateful. I don't think you're your father's daughter” Elijah moved closer to Tyla, whispering the last part, making her blood boil inside of her.At that moment, she felt like ripping Elijah apart for saying such to her.“ I will be leaving sir, make sure the doctors here keep a close eye on him” Elijah explained while Mr Forbes nodded attentively.“ I w
Tyla and her boyfriend, Stanley returned to her grandfather's ward when she was informed that he was awake.“ Grandpa, how are you feeling now?” Tyla rushed towards him with tears in her eyes.Seeing her grandfather awake, she couldn't help but be thankful to Elijah, but her pride stood as a hindrance to that.“ I am fine Tyla, don't cry anymore” Grandpa Forbes smiled as he wiped the small tears on Tyla's face.“ Father, how are you feeling now?” Mr Forbes, Tyla's father asked as he stood beside the bed.“ I feel so strong and healthy like I haven't been sick for a while” Grapa Forbes replied and sat upright without the help of anyone.“ So who woke me up? Is it the doctors? If it was them, then I will fundraise this hospital to be the biggest in the world” Grandpa Forbes said but everyone fell silent with their heads low, which made him frown.“ What happened?”“ Actually father, the man who woke you up already left and all he did was pierce you with an acupuncture needle, that's all”
“ Aren't you going in?” Elijah furrowed his brows, staring at Tyla who stood rooted to the ground.She was surprised at how nice Elijah was. She was the one who insulted and called him a quack, yet he was still the same person who fought for her when her boyfriend tried raising his hand on her.“ Uhmmm……” Tyla was short of words because she was totally embarrassed.“ Your grandfather will be waiting for you, so go in” Elijah flashed her a smile before walking in, while she followed slowly behind him until they got to the ward where her grandfather was. Seeing Elijah back at the hospital again, the bodyguard who is also his fanboy was surprised to see him.“ Good day, Mr Elijah” he smiled when Elijah approached him with a smile.“ Good day. I am here to see her grandfather “ Elijah said referring to Tyla who is behind him.“ Do you need their permission before going in when I am behind you?” Tyla rolled her eyes and walked into the ward while Elijah followed.Mr Forbes was also surpr
GENERAL HOSPITAL,GEORGIA Isabella could be seen on a bed inside a ward with a drip connected to her hand.Her eyes were wide open as she stared at the ceiling, lost in thought.“ Hey” Dracula walked into the ward after he ended the call with Elijah.“ Hi” Isabella forced herself to smile.“ I just talked to Elijah,” Dracula started and Isabella's dull eyes brightened hearing his name.“ He will be back to Georgia tomorrow, “ Dracula continued.“ He said I should take care of you until he arrives” Dracula smiled and sat beside her on the bed.“ I can't wait to see him tomorrow, I really missed him,” Isabella said with tears in her eyes.“ Hey, stop crying, he will be back before you know it” Dracula tried consoling her.“ I am hungry,” Isabella pouted after wiping her tears.“ What would you like to eat?” Dracula asked.“ Just get me Mac and cheese” Isabella said and Dracula stood up.“ I will go get it for you” Dracula smiled and left the ward. Isabella sighed and closed her eyes
GEORGIAAfter 13 hours of flight, Elijah, Hank and Rowan finally landed in Georgia.Elijah didn't hesitate to leave the airport for the hospital Isabella was admitted to.It took just ten minutes before he got there.He asked for her ward using her name.When the nurse at the reception saw him, she began to giggle and wanted an autograph from Elijah, but it was a state of emergency, so he had no time to sign an autograph.“ Maybe next time, I've got no time to sign any autographs,” Elijah said in a polite tone, so he wouldn't sound rude, but nevertheless, the nurse felt embarrassed. Seeing how other nurses were laughing at her because he didn't sign her autograph, he just had to do it, to save her from shame.“ Give me” Elijah said and almost immediately a smile appeared on the nurse’s face as she handed over the jotter and pen in her hand.“ Thank you so much” the nurse said and rolled her eyes at other nurses who were once mocking and laughing at her. Elijah signed the autograph
Hayley was still shouting like a mad woman when the police slammed the entrance door open and troupes into the sitting room.“ Miss Hayley, you're under arrest for attempted murder. You have the right to remain silent because, whatever you say or do, will be used against you in the court of law” The leader of the police officers said and handcuffed Hayley, before dragging her out of the house, since she was reluctant and was dragging with them. Getting outside, she met Elijah whose back was resting on his Lamborghini Gallardo with a smile on his face.“ In your next life Hayley, make sure you avoid anyone bearing Elijah” he said with a smirk before ordering for the police men to take Hayley away.“ I wished she died, maybe you won't be so happy right now” Hayley said through gritted teeth, hatred filled her eyes.“ But I am sorry to burst your bubbles, she didn't die. She's alive, so you can go suck up in jail” Elijah winked before entering his car.“ Bye Hayley, we will meet at th
THE FOLLOWING DAYSeeing her improvement, the doctor in charge of treating Isabella discharged her since she has improved and healed rapidly.“ Finally, I am out of this boring place” Isabella inhaled the air outside the hospital.“ It feels so good to be out” she said while Dracula chuckled.He was told to bring her to the villa by Elijah since he had a business to take care of.“ You're so happy right now” Dracula smiled as he placed her luggages in the booth of the car.“ If it were you, wouldn't you be excited?” Isabella turned to him.“ Yeah, I would,” Dracula admitted before opening the door for Isabella to enter.“ Thanks for the kind gesture, but I sure can do it myself,” Isabella said politely, making Dracula laugh.“ You should be grateful instead of complaining, don't be an ungrateful friend” he said and walked to the driver's corner, started the car and drove off. Isabella was literally talking every single second that Dracula thought that his ear drums would break any
THE NEXT DAYElijah was dressing up for the dinner date with Isabella to celebrate their engagement.Soon, he was done dressing and met Isabella already waiting for him downstairs.“ Were you waiting for me?” He asked with a smile on his face.“ Yes I was,” Isabella replied.“ Let's go” Elijah entwined their hands together as they made their way out of the house. He decided to drive in his Audi R8 which was red in colour.“ I need to get you a car, since you need one,” Elijah said as she drove off from his villa.“ No I don't, I can use yours anytime since you have countless of them at home” Isabella replied, looking outside the window.“ If you're going to be the wife of Elijah West, you're supposed to have your own car” Elijah teased, making Isabella smile.
