CHAPTER 29- HE’S AWAKE
The moment for both of them as they both push through their actions more than words. Anders was in great desperation of owning her, a contract that was tied between the two made Emily realize the conflict of not being able to obey the man who saved their family’s company.
Chances were taking them both on the same boat, one must not leave or else someone would be afloat somewhere else and be lost.
Emily whimpered as Anders kept on thrusting his tongue inside of her mouth and that was not easy to do for Emily. It was her first time to have a French kiss.
Anders smiled as he knew that Emily was getting into the moment. He caressed her back and felt the thick towel was blocking him from doing it.
Then, unexpectedly George was panting and called Mr. Winston while he opened the door. He witnessed the two were on the floor and that made Emily and Anders quickly separate from each other while shamelessly staring at George.
“What?!” Anders annoyingly said.
“He’s awake!” George said and left the two together and he was in a hurry to run downstairs.
Anders grabbed some tissue and wiped himself and did not even have time to talk to Emily as he was already running downstairs.
Emily was left hanging and was tightly holding her towel, she could not believe her eyes as Anders just left her without any words.
“Wow! he just left me, this is so great!” she exclaimed and went to the vanity to fix herself.
Meanwhile, Anders was now inside the car and George was in the front seat as he was driving the car, he drove fast as what his boss told him to do.
“Mr. Winston, aren’t you going to tell your mother about this?” George asked.
Anders shook his head and looked at him in the mirror and answered, “She has no care about this, I’m pretty sure that she was at the casino, spending millions,” then, he showed his disappointed face and looked at the window.
“Alright, and the doctor said that he was confused about his surroundings.” George added.
“I am expecting this to happen since he was in a coma for a year.” Anders said.
George drove faster on the road and at last they arrived at the private exclusive hospital for high class people. Anders grabbed his baseball cap and wore it with his black hoodie.
He ran across the road and went inside the hospital. The security was his backup in case that someone approached him out of nowhere.
Heavy footsteps can be heard through the entire hallway and the security was now in cover for him to not be exposed in public. If the public found out about this certain issue about Winston’s family, their competitor would certainly use it against them.
Anders finally in front of the door of someone who has been the main reason why he was now in his place at the company. The reason for his guilt and everything that he had been suffering for years.
He slowly opened the door and the sound of the machine was being heard through the entire room. A man was standing right next to his bed while staring at the window.
“Charles,” Anders said.
Then, Charles turned and saw the man behind him. A smile formed on his face and walked straight to Anders, and gave him a hug.
“What took you so long, Anders?” then, Charles held his shoulders and stared at his face for a while.
Anders did not say any word but a surprise look was now on his face, he could not believe that his brother was now awake and what’s the good thing about this was he would not be alone anymore.
Charles furrowed his brows and said, “What’s wrong? Aren’t you happy to see me?” and he opened his arms with a smile on his face.
Anders had no words to say, instead a tear was forming on his eyes and quickly Charles tapped his shoulders and said, “Just like the old times,” then, they both laughed at each other.
“So how’s mom and dad?” asked Charles.
He answered, “They’re fine except for mom who was an alcoholic and a spieler,” a smile was now on his face and then Anders decided to sit on the couch.
Charles also sat on the opposite side of the couch and crossed both of his legs, “Anders I have no idea why I am at the hospital, can we please just go back home?” he mumbled.
Anders said, “No, brother. The doctors needed to see the progress in you and if we go back home, you are risking your health so it’s better to stay here for a while.” he explained to his brother about his condition.
“You know I almost forgot, can you call Margot and tell her that I am awake? We were supposed to meet yesterday but- please call her now,” Charles pleaded to his brother.
Silence took over Anders and pressed his lips together, he could not utter any words right now, it was hard for him to tell the truth. “Charles,” then he heaved out a heavy sigh.
“It did not happen yesterday.” Anders stated.
Charles furrowed his brows and said, “What? — What do you mean?! It was the 25th of November yesterday and –” but he stopped and looked around then, noticed that there was no calendar around so he grabbed his brother’s phone and checked the date.
Charles was in shock to see the date today, he unconsciously dropped the phone and could not utter any words. His mind was flashing a sudden memory. He put both of his hands on his head and screamed loudly as the pain kept pinching his head.
“Shit!”
“Stay here and I will call the doctor.” Anders quickly pressed the re button on the wall and called the doctor and nurse for his brother.
He did not expect that he would experience like this, the thought that Charles was just experiencing the time that lapses in him but this one was way different on him.
The doctor came in with some nurses and tools that they would use for his brother. They were in a hurry as they saw Charles was having his seizure.
One nurse took Anders out of the room and said, “Please, wait for us outside. We will make sure that your brother will be fine afterwards. Let us do our job.”
Anders could not utter a word and just waited outside the room. His knees were melting and the guilt inside of him was rising once again, the fact that he was the main reason for his attack right now.
The vibration of his phone has not been catching his attention anymore. All he thought about was his brother who was now at risk at the moment.
“Mr. Winston, what happened?” George curiously asked while staring at the window of the room.
Anders shook his head and said, “Charles was having a seizure and all because of me!”
His brittle voice was now making George worried as he witnessed how he suffered from anxiety for almost a year. The suffering he had was making him break his sanity but with the help of someone, he conquered everything.
