Chapter 1
The wedding bells didn't ring as it was supposed to.At exactly twelve minutes after noon, Caspian Titan stood beneath a beautiful arch of white roses, with his one year old son sleeping quietly against his chest. His eyes remained fixed on the empty entrance, the place his bride, Graycie should have appeared at any moment.But she never returned from work as she promised.The three hundred guests who had been chatting excitedly were now sitting in awkward silence. The orchestra had fallen quiet, leaving the room unusually silent. Even the priest seemed unsure of what to do. He adjusted his glasses, glanced at the time again, then finally lowered his gaze.Everyone was waiting for someone to explain what was happening.But Caspian couldn’t. She was supposed to close her massage parlor for their special day, despite his pleas, she didn't. She had promised to return early only to stay till now and she was nowhere in sight. He had called Graycie thirty-seven times already.At first,

A few minutes later, Caspian’s phone buzzed with a notification. He opened and it was Atlas. —----Dr. Orion Clever. Clinical Geneticist. The Clinical Laboratory. Room 83. Titan Hospital Headquarters. 43 Dowvy Close, Las Vegas, NV. —---At once, he knew it was the doctor he was going to meet. “An appointment has been booked. He's one of our very best.” Atlas added. “We're going to the hospital,” Caspian whispered to his son. Picking Jett from the bed, he walked to the locally constructed garage at the backyard of their lowly apartment. He checked his Google map. From Tonopah here to Las Vegas was a minimum of a three hour drive. And luckily, after Graycie came back with the car yesterday, she didn't go with it today. Being someone who had learnt driving, he buckled up Jett at the backseat, got into the front and started the engine. Before long, he was already reversing and driving out of the compound. Ten minutes out of the compound, another message popped up. He tapped

Caspian pulled out his phone in rage, angrily typing Graycie’s name. Her number showed and he tapped on it. It rang. “Come on, pick the call!” He growled angrily. It rang and rang, no one picked. He turned back, driving his fingers into his air in frustration when he recalled what Atlas had said. About to call him to tell of the calamity he was in, he caught sight of a couple. With the woman looking so familiar. His heart ceased a bit. He looked deeper. It was Graycie. For a brief moment, Caspian forgot everything. The guards disappeared from his mind. Even the thought of calling Atlas to tell him that he had arrived. For one second, he simply stood there, staring at the woman he had called his wife. She was laughing, curled up in the arms of the tall, gorgeous man, looking so much like a doctor. The doctor she'd talked of. Then a black Ferrari drove by stopping at the entrance of the block, the car opened. She stretched up towards the man's cheek and gave him a kiss. “Hey

“I’ve received three emergency calls in the last few minutes about a suspected serial killer.” Atlas said coldly. “Who's the serial killer?” His voice edged up in question but no one spoke. Just stares, suppressed winks and murmurs. His eyes darted to the security guards. “Who's the serial killer?” “Someone explained this to me. Now! Or I will call the police chief myself.”He yelled. “All the accusers will be arrested!” Their hearts were already drumming hard. Some turned in blame. Others regret, wishing they never came here. Leon staggered forward, clearly shaking. “Sir, this man drove into the hospital premises with a baby and a gun.” He turned and his colleagues rushed behind others’ backs thinking he was going to call them. “I thought you all were strong?” Caspian mocked but no one dared to answer. Meanwhile Atlas’ steady, raging gaze on Leon lingered. He picked up his story quickly. “Graycie here had claimed he was her nanny but he claimed they were about getting ma

Prior to his past. What happened to his parents. The very reason he'd been mandated to do this. The type of disciplinarian his grandpa was. Merely receiving this request from his granddad, he knew what it was about. When his dad took control over Titan and within one year lavished the resources that the group of hospitals was close to bankruptcy, he knew his chances of inheriting this billion-dollar asset would be tough. He was a young boy then, but he just knew. His grandfather, Sir. Titan was a no-nonsense man. Never joked with his companies and was ready to cut off family to uphold his companies. And that's exactly what he did, cutting off his dad and mom. As if the exile wasn't enough, they ganged up to vote his grandfather out of the company so they could inherit fast and continue with their luxury lifestyle but Sir. Titan disowned his son. His wife, who was his mom seeing things turn up unexpectedly, divorced his dad a few months later, upon him being unable to keep up w

Atlas nodded and went out again. Turning to sit, his eyes met with Jett. His stomach knotted. A few minutes later, Atlas returned, bobbing his head. “Yes, you can.” “Give me the HR’s contact.” Caspian ordered. Atlas snapped at one of his men who linked with Dr. Fred. A number was sent. It popped up on Caspian’s phone, tagged HR. “What do you need the HR for?” Orion got alarmed, rushing to Caspian but Atlas’ men held him. Graycie stood up, knowing something was about to happen. “You must be joking if you think you can do anything to my man.” “Bold enough!” Caspian smirked typing into his phone. She rushed at him aiming for the phone but Caspian flung his hand up with it, high above her. “Give me the phone?” “Is it yours?” He teased, amused with the idea of stressing the guts out of her. He recalled how she stressed the hell out of him with allegations that he was her nanny. The accusations that he was stalking her. Now, he would do no less. So Caspian wrote a letter. Endors

Atlas's jaw tightened."Do you know who he is?""This is a police investigation, so you better stay out of this." The officer warned and Atlas was going to pull out his phone and call the Police chief when Caspian pressed his hand down. “I can't let you go with them, you're way above that.” “Way above the law or he's just being a coward?” Graycie played her stunt. “You're still talking?” Atlas was heading towards her but Caspian dashed him a cold stare."Don't."Atlas frowned. "Sir?""Don't make this worse." He said coldly. But Atlas wasn't buying this. He quickly stepped outside. “Who are you going to call? There's no need.” Graycie was already being led away. She turned her head toward Caspian.For the first time since their wedding disaster, she looked uncertain.Orion noticed it.Then he leaned closer to her as the officers moved them toward the elevators."Don't say anything."Caspian caught the whisper. His eyes narrowed. Orion looked back at him. There was something in th

Caspian quickly turned to face her, his eyes lurking with curiosity. “Why did you ask?” She flung her face away, trying to hide the nervous expression but Caspian already saw through it. “Like I said, I'm just curious.” She muttered. Caspian smirked, turning back to look on the road ahead of them. “That's left for me to decide. Let's finish with the police station.” Cordelia swallowed a mouthful. She nodded. “It's okay.” But snapped back again. “Whatever happens, I'm here with you.” Caspian only smiled, saying nothing. At the station, they were led to the investigation room where the Police Chief was already waiting for them. Seeing Atlas with Caspian, he stood up in salute. Both Graycie and Orion twisted their brows. Even the police chief knew Caspian. A thing which baffled them. The three began to talk, sharing pleasantries while Graycie and Orion were asked to sit and wait for them to finish. Graycie sat but Orion met with one of the officers. “I'm calling my lawyer.” C
