"What!” Ivy exclaimed in shock.It felt as if her world was going down. Usually it was hard to find a donor. How was she going to find a donor in the space of how many days? Would Liam die? She couldn’t bear the thought of Liam, dying. She wasn’t going to be the same anymore, neither would she be able to live without him, even if Alexander was now there for her.Alexander and Liam’s attention were caught because of how she exclaimed. They threw puzzled looks at her and Piper sighed, looking downcast.“Mommy, what’s wrong? Are you hurt?” Liam asked, out of concern.Alexander walked up to her and put his arm around her shoulder.“Ivy, what’s wrong?”As ivy looked up at him, he noticed that tears were rolling down her chin and dripping on her clothes.“What’s wrong? Why are you crying? Come on. Liam shouldn’t see you crying.” Alexander expressed his concern.“Is it true?”“What exactly?” Ivy sniffed and tried to cry without Liam finding out that she was crying while Liam was trying to c
Alexander looked around for Ivy. He ran to the alley which was near the restaurant, but all he could see were dirt bags and cans, and then a man and a woman, making out.Then he went in a nearby public toilet and checked the female's toilet. There was only one lady there."Pervert!" She screamed and ran inside one of the toilets."I'm sorry. I'm searching for a lady." He apologized."Then go to the bar, you pervert?" She shouted."I'm not…"Alexander didn't bother to complete his words since he felt he was just wasting his time. He had something more important to do than trying to prove his innocence.He went out of the toilet and walked around the street, but didn't find her. So, he walked back to his car, with beads of sweat scattered on his forehead. He began to freak out, hoping nothing bad had happened to her, so he brought out his phone and dialed her number. Her phone rang, but there was no answer."Shit!" He cursed, then dialed her number again.Still, there was no answer fro
Ivy shook Piper, but she wasn't opening her eyes."Piper! Piper!" She called out to her but no response.Ivy's hands were trembling and then she listened to heartbeat to find out if she was still breathing or not and when she moved her ear closer to her chest, she could hear Piper's heart beating, but it was low and slow.She got scared, hoping she wasn't dying slowly. Immediately, she tried her best to drag her outside and then she got someone who helped her off to the cab which drove them to the hospital.As soon as Ivy got to the hospital's entrance with Piper, they brought out a stretcher and placed Piper on top of it and then rolled her in. Ivy waited in the ward hallway, hoping that nothing disastrous had happened to her.She couldn't call Alexander because she didn't know if he was receiving shots already or if there was something else he was doing in the hospital already. She Icould only pace around and hope for the best.After a while, the doctor came out and she rushed to m
“Shit!” He cursed, under his breath.Alexander walked up to her and grabbed her hand abruptly.“What the hell do you think you are doing!” He lashed out on her.“Trying to get your attention of course.” Bethany replied, then withdrew her hand from his grip, with a glare at him.Then Alexander let out a tired sigh and slammed his hand on his face, then he sat on the couch he placed in his office.“Look Alexander, you know I won’t act this way. But you pushed me to. You have always had time for me and when you are so busy, I do understand.” Bethany said as she walked up to him, looking sober.“So, why can’t you understand now?” Alexander questioned.“Are you truly busy or you have not had the wish to see me?” Bethany asked, placing her hands on her waist.Alexander sighed again and released his tie a bit. He didn’t know the right words to say and he didn’t want to put up a fight with her, because she would be more suspicious about his behavior. So, he decided to stay calm and act calm a
Ivy’s heart began to beat in anxiety and fear. She moved closer to the nurse and held her collar.“You can’t be speaking the truth. That can’t be. Is this how you do here! Leave someone’s child to another without making investigations? Was she the person who admitted him!” Ivy lashed out at her in anger as she kept dragging her collar.“Ma’am. Please calm down. I…. The person left about fifteen minutes ago as I was told. She could still be in the premises.”“What! Are you out of your mind! As you were told? Who the hell gave my child out on purpose!” Ivy shouted shaking her head in anger.“Look here. If you do not provide Liam right now, we will yank your hair out! Where is he!” Piper threatened.“Please… I wasn’t the one here when they took him.” The nurse replied, looking scared.“And you sounded so confident when we asked you where he was. I have never come across this face in this hospital. Are you certain you aren’t the one who ordered for his kidnap?” Piper shouted, holding the
“Anything wrong?” Piper asked, out of curiosity.“No. Nothing.” Ivy covered up.She looked at her message one more time which read:“There is nothing you can do. I am always one step ahead of you and will always win. Alexander can never be yours.”Ivy wondered if Bethany was up to something again or if she had done something as well. She glanced at Alexander who was driving with a smile on his face. She wondered if he had met with Bethany during this period.She also felt insecure because she knew Alexander loved Bethany for him to choose her as his fiancée and it is certain that they could have processed their marriage before he had an accident but was curious on the reason, they didn’t process it even after a few years.Ivy let out a troubled sigh. She felt if Bethany wasn’t one who could be easily scared by threats especially the one which had to do with Alexander, then she had to take her steps quicker than she thought. If she was up to something, it meant Bethany was disregarding
Ivy eyes narrowed in anxiety and fear. She stood up immediately along with Alexander and rushed towards where Piper was leading them to. Her heart broke into two and tears began to run down her eyes as she set her eyes on Liam who was lying on the floor like he was half dead, with blood from his nose which had stained his philtrum and drooled down to his neck.“No, Liam!” She screamed in agony as more tears came rushing down to her chin and dripping on her clothes.Alexander drew her back and held her tight.“Have you called the hospital?” Alexander queried.“Yes, I have. When I noticed that not even the water was waking him up, I had to call them and then rush down to you both. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have suggested that we leave you both.” Piper apologized, obviously looking shaken.“Let me touch my son, let me go.” Ivy screamed and was trying her best to free herself from Alexander’s strong grip.“Ivy, you need to calm down. We don’t know much about his case. What if we hold him in
Alexander wondered if it was a mistake the doctor had made. He was right there and he called Ivy, only.“Doctor, I’m right here. Don’t you need to talk to me too?” He asked as he put his hands into his pockets.“Mr. Grayson, you do not have to worry. It’s just her I need to see.”“I’ll be right back.” Ivy said and patted my shoulder.Alexander watched as Ivy followed the doctor to his office and hoped for the best. As Ivy got to the doctor’s office, she was offered a sit and, on that seat, she clutched her hand on her bag, fearing that the doctor was going to break her heart with some bad news.“So, Miss Maddison, I wanted to speak to you privately to assure you that your son is fine and he is in good hands. Actually, he was lucky that you brought him in sooner before anything worse happened to him. “Oh, thank goodness.” Ivy rubbed her palms together as she closed her eyes in relief.“And I must commend Mr. Grayson for suggesting an outing for Liam. He seemed to be calm and ready to
