A Hole In His Thinking
Eventually, the kids lost consciousness and not knowing how long they had been unconscious, the gate to the dungeon opened, it was morning now. Cold, emotionless soldiers, about three of them grabbed and dragged the triplets ruthlessly , one to one, and they threw them before Owens, just outside the president generals villa.
The forcefulness with which they were dragged was what woke the kids up, they were all weak and their eyes hollowed. Especially, Jennifer who had been and is sick. Infact, her condition had worsened.
Legacy blinked his eyes weakly, “I’m hungry.. none…. of…. us….. pushed…. her…. my sister is sick, get her to … the – ” he tried to get up on his feet as he pouted but only ended up falling back to the floor.
“My sister is sick –” as he added, speaking his voice grew weaker and weaker.
Stoic’s lip twitched and he wanted to say something but couldn’t say anything..
“Y’all will stay here until Hannah is discharged!” Owen’s said coldly, emotionlessly as well. He is a cruel being and wouldn’t mind if the kids die in the spot right now and no one would dare question him about their death. To him, they almost killed his great grand child and deserves to be punished.
Just then Mark rushed over, he was told to stay with Hannah until the attending physician tells him she is safe and their baby sound.
“Jennifer…!” Mark picked her up immediately, she had numb before now, and now felt an instant warmth.
Mark was on the verge of crying, he had lost his child due to the fall Hannah fall and he can’t bring himself to believe that any of the kids pushed her. He had given Diana his word to protect the kids at all cost until she returns.
“Get the fuck away from her! And besides, is Hannah safe?” Owen’s inquired, his anger had subsided in a way when the attending physician told him and reassured him last night that nothing will happen to his great grand child who was barely 2 weeks old.
“We lost the baby, but she is in good health!” Mark responded, he knew this wouldn’t boil down well with him, and it was the truth, and he has to face it!, just then Jennifer’s body couldn’t move. Making Mark afraid. He was even scared and it was unlike him.
Mark carefully held Jennifer, focusing solely on her as Owen tried to heal from the truth, his great grand child is gone? Hannah underwent a miscarriage?
“Jennifer! Stoic, Legacy! You three stay with me!”, Mark’s voice turned hoarse as he urged the kids lying half conscious on the floor.
At that exact moment, Owen’s suddenly had difficulty in breathing. Cough cough! His breathing got tensed. Gasping for air.
Mark turned and looked at him, colour and brightness and started to fade from his already paled purple face.
“No no no no! I shouldn’t have bursted the news to him like that….. And so easily and now his health is worsened!”
“Don’t look at him! Take him to the hospital!”, Mark roared in exasperation.
In a jiffy, Owen’s was rushed to the hospital ward.. the kids as well.. most critical case was that of Jennifer who got referred out of the military base hospital unit to a much better hospital with better, good skilled surgeon’s and operating machines to save lives. The military base hospital ward lacked some of the machines.
Owen’s chances of survival was 30% out of a 100% , that the Head Army Doctor said before hand. He was able to manage Stoic and Legacy’s condition with the help of other army medicals, but that of Owen’s he is battling with, and he can’t refer him except he risk putting his life at risk and he can’t do that, so he was doing all he could…. possible best to save him.
Mark didn’t know what he was feeling…….. Hannah is the cause of all this!This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Mark lost his unborn child because of her carelessness…. what if the kids really pushed her? Which mother would fall and lose her unborn child and still don’t say the truth? Why would she willingly fall of the stair when it’d obviously be to her own detriment?
Mark could not help but think back to what happened after the physician announced, she lost the baby. Hannah had begged him not to take drastic decision and hurt the kids badly as their mum was away, that they were young… Even though she Lost her child, she still begged for them. Could it really be the kids pushed her?
And now, his grandfather was in a critical condition and may not come out alive according to the doctor.
Jennifer’s condition as well was critical as Richarlison who was with her at William hospital reported.
It felt like Marks world was collapsing…..
His mother was still missing and haven’t yet heard from her….
His step brother is out there setting his traps for revenge….
He had just lost his heir…..
His godfather and grandfather is in a dying bed…
If not for the fact that, he gave Diana his words that he would take care and protect the Triplets, he would have had them ousted. Afterall, their father, Jake – Benjamin Bernard probably have my mother kidnapped!
Somehow, For Owen’s discovering his grand child is gone worsened his hitherto healing illness.
Mark’s thinking has been completely severed… He was no longer thinking straight. Where does he start from? If only he had the Silver ring….
He then sighed…
News had already spread across the military base and outside the military base… and it had reached Jake’s.
He was standing at upper most section of a sky scrapper watching the city’s view from above when his assistant reported to him.
His actual grand father, was dying and it was a good news to him. Owen’s was one of those that he is out to exert revenge on. The bad news was his daughter battling between life and death. She and his brother’s are my heir, I can’t let anything happen to them…
“Take me to the hospital…..” He ordered and grabbed for his jacket and darted out of the section, following his assistant closely as walked briskly into the elevator.
In a matter of time, he was before Williams hospital…
Hannah on his hospital bed on receiving the news smiled….. “Diana will cry! Hahaha” she chuckled and laughed with her. She was never pregnant and her plan worked perfectly fine. This was the only way to avoid getting caught!
Meanwhile Diana…
