Legacy Of The Forgotten Heir

003

There were about two nurses outside watching him react in abnormal ways and wondered if he was okay.

 The lady by the side of the door took her eyes or the window, "What happened to him? He's looking like some final world boss about to take over the world."

 "Yeah right." The second nurse rolled her eyeballs with folded hands. 

 "Didn't you see him, his manly pose?"

  "Oh come on, stop it, you don't even know this guy and you're being thrilled by him?" The lady held a look that asked if she was mad. 

 The first nurse giggled and added. "But we have to admit he's cute." 

 "You're impossible." She palmed her forehead "The patient hasn't received any visitor in five days, yet alone a flower."

 The first nurse didn't seem concerned as she said. "Well! That says he's not married."

 "Girl would you shut it! He looks 19, what a 26 year old gonna do with a kid?"

 "Kid or not, he's handsome." She seemed determined to make her move. 

  "Nurse Vivian!" Another nurse rushed towards the two nurses at the door. 

 "Eish, what is it now?" Nurse Vivian, the second nurse stepping out of her post. 

 "It's the Government agencies, they've come back and are demanding for Doctor Hamilton right now!"

 Both the nurses went pale immediately. For months, Coast City Hospital faced an issue that didn't seem workable. 

 Debts, 

Doctor Hamilton, CEO of Coast City Hospital has been unable to work things out despite several promises made. Even workers when lamenting about their salaries not being fully paid. 

 Equipment suppliers weren't fully paid either and banks have been threatening to seize their assets. Now the government agencies have gotten involved. 

 The nurses went straight to the conference room where it was all happening, peeping through the window.

  "It's Doctor Hamilton!" The third nurse pointed out. 

  The first was a bit disoriented. "He shouldn't have shown his face."

 The two nurses exchanged awkward glances before looking at her. 

 "I'm being serious, Doctor Hamilton doesn't have that much, the hospital's value is higher than 10 million dollars, and the money needed to clear all this is about 50 million!"

 Before anything else could be said, Hamilton was forced on his knee with two Men in black tactical suits 

Red X marks were plastered on their shoulders.

Faction X.

 The same men that had emptied Daniel's house.

 Sitting not far from them was a woman with flowing blonde hair and eyes as blue as the ocean. Her skin was flawless, pale as freshly fallen snow. Dressed in a tailored blue blazer, she was undeniably beautiful.

Yet the cold disdain etched across her face made her seem more dangerous than alluring.

One glance was enough to tell the nurses that she wasn't here on friendly terms with Doctor Hamilton.

 "That's Miss Aurora Ferguson!"

"The third-richest woman in Coast City!"

"What is she doing here?"

Her ocean-blue eyes settled on Doctor Hamilton, causing the latter's face to stiffen.

"Well, Hamilton," she said, a faint smile appearing on her lips. "The deadline has passed."

She leaned forward slightly.

"I trust you're prepared to uphold our agreement."

Hamilton couldn't speak, he knew far too well that his next words might cost his life. 

 "Don't tell me you don't have plans to uphold our agreement because it will be a bit saddening." She kept her cold gaze on him, "For you, your family and well, your staff."

 Hamilton still couldn't say a word. 

 "I am guessing you don't have an answer to my question, Hamilton." She made a low groan and got up on her two feet. 

 Miss Aurora was indeed the term beauty undefined, she looked young, even younger than the ladies outside but, she was more cold and calculative by her looks. 

 "Seven years and you still have no idea how you are going to refund my money. What exactly were you thinking when you came to me and borrowed twenty million in the first place?" She laid out another question but not a single word came from his lips. 

 "And now look at you, you have so many debts and yet you don't have a solution. Well tell you what, I have a solution, our agreement. Your hospital, house, your staffs, everything will belong to —"

  "—Hold." Daniel entered the room, his presence filled the room the moment he did. "Trouble is paradise?" 

 Aurora's face wrinkled with confusion, "Ugh? Who are you?" She looked at Hamilton. “Who is he?"

 Hamilton himself had no idea, maybe a patient? 

 Daniel noticed the men in the room, they looked so familiar. He couldn't deny it, he'd seen them before.

  'Faction x’ Daniel recognized them. 'Grandpa said Faction X is a large super powered military operation in coast city, so huge that it had several people who had authority over them, anyone capable of commanding faction X is registered as a state level threat but it didn't mean they are invincible unless the one with the authority possess a skill that makes them terrifyingly dangerous.'

  "I am just a friend, here to clear Doctor Hamilton's debts." 

 The lady's jaw dropped. Even Hamilton was stupefied by the boy's statement. 

 "Boy are you mad though? how can you walk in air and pull such a joke, get the fuck out now!"

 "A joke?" Daniel raised a brow. 

  "Yes! No one can pay off Hamilton's debts yet alone save this worthless hospital anyway."

 "And what are you going to do with the hospital when you claim ownership?"

 Aurora hesitated. "Mind your business and get the fuck out."

 Daniel said calmly, too calmly, like he already owned the hospital. "You are the one that needs to leave, not me." 

 Faction X soldier moved with military precision but Daniel simply pulled out a cheque worth $20, 000, 000, shocking both Aurora and Doctor Hamilton. 

 Who exactly is Daniel and why was he helping Hamilton?

  Moments Earlier.

  Daniel was still standing there savoring the skyline view when a familiar sound occurred in his head.
