"Yeah, everyone heard it well, I'm suggesting about you only," Bryan said while looking at Nancy confirming that he spoke with a right mind but not brought a random name.Bryan's suggestion was like a bombshell, leaving the room in extreme silence and confusion. Nancy and Stacy both stared at him with a clueless face, no matter how hard they tried to think, they couldn't understand what exactly Bryan was trying to do.However, Nancy broke the silence by saying, "Me? But Bryan, I’ve never been involved in the company, I don't have any experience about the company and the dealings of our company like Dad, how can you suggest me?" Stacy also nodded her head agreeing with Nancy. "Yeah, Bryan, Nancy was totally busy with her own things, she never showed any interest in such things." Bryan knew both of them are scared, and as far as Bryan remembered in his previous life, Nancy has a degree in business administration but she hid it from everyone saying she is interested in acting, and conc
"A new CEO? Are you kidding? Why do we even need a new CEO when I'm perfectly fine?" Neil shouted, with extreme anger in his voice after hearing to Calix's words.His words were stopped in the middle by a sudden cough, and Stacy rushed to hand him a glass of water, "dad, please calm down, it's not good for you to be serious like this in a situation." "Mr. Calix, I think it's better if you take leave now," Nancy said in a stern tone wanting him to leave so that her father can take rest with peace rather than getting hyper or excited.After taking a sip of water, Neil signalled to let Calix to stay, "let him, no need for him to leave, I need to speak with him," his voice was calmer than before, "I don’t think it’s necessary to appoint a new CEO, I'm perfectly fine, I'll resume my duties soon." "Sir, actually it’s not my decision," Calix clearly looked nervous as he gave a reply while wiping his sweat, "This is the decision taken by the board, and they sent me here to inform you." "Ev
"Three days passed like three hours, isn't it?" Stacy mentioned with Ronald about the days how quickly passed. Ronald nodded agreeing with her, "before we aren't much experienced in staying at hospital but after spending few times in the hospital for Mira, it became routine for both of us, so days felt literally like hours," Stacy chuckled at his words, but her eyes shifting to Bryan, who was sleeping peacefully on Nancy's lap on the couch."I never imagined there'll be a day I'll be having a bond with him like this. When I decided to create a bond with him, I never thought we would come this far," Stacy smiled softly remembering how stubborn and defensive Bryan used to be in the beginning. "Look at him now, sleeping on her lap, as if nothing ever happened, even though we hurt him so badly to the extent of him leaving the house by cutting off all the ties with us." Ronald sighed pointing out the things he noticed in Bryan. "He’s actually too naive. He doesn’t hold grudges for long,
"What exactly are you trying to imply here?" Josephine stammered, but Bryan continued with the same attitude, "implying or revealing?" Josephine stood frozen in the same place, Bryan's sharp eyes are fixed on her as he is waiting for her to respond.The air in the waiting room felt very uneasy to even take a breath for Josephine. His question had clearly startled her, and for a moment, she completely forgot what to say further or what to even think, because Bryan acted as if he knew everything, "why aren't you replying, mom? Are you afraid of me figuring out more?" "What exactly are you trying to say, Bryan?" she finally pulled up all the strength to speak, though her voice didn't sound prideful as before. "I’m worried about your father! Why would I be afraid of anything else? I don't have time for your nonsense." Bryan rolled his eyes, as a small smile playing at the corner of his lips, he isn't bothered by any of her words, since he is busy with reading her facial expression, "Yo
"What's happening here?" Josephine's voice echoed in the waiting area, instantly drawing the attention of the three siblings and Ronald who are peacefully involved in a conversation.They all turned to see her standing there, her face filled with extreme frustration."Can't you even answer your calls? What exactly are you doing? Do you three even know how many times I've called you people?" She demanded, making her voice to ring around everyone's ears.Bryan rubbed his ears out of frustration because of her raspy voice bringing nuisance."Mom, we are also waiting for the doctor to give us his final update regarding Dad's health, that’s why we are still waiting before we can inform you," Nancy spoke trying to calm her mother, as the nurses passing by glancing at them weirdly making it awkward for all of them.Stacy frowned at her mother's behaviour in a public place, "We told you to stay with Grandma at home, what are you doing here, Mom? Why did you even come here?""You shut up," Jos
"Yeah, she is the one I'm talking about," Bryan said, maintaining his voice to be steady, despite watching Stacy's shocked faces expression, "I know you're quite surprised to hear this from me, but I'm sure she must be the one behind all this."Stacy couldn't help but to sigh while rubbing her forehead, "But what would she even gain by harming Dad? Don't you know what kind of ideal couple our parents are?" "Ideal couples? In what way?" Bryan sneered at Stacy's words, "a man with multiple affairs, just because Mia came to light, we knew about her, what if there are others too? Do you think he is someone who is satisfied with one woman? A man like him will never be satisfied with one woman, and even after knowing all, why didn't our Mom react? Don't say it's love, please." Stacy knew Bryan was right, because all of them know what kind of man their father is, "either it's love or her greed towards the title of winterwood family, whatever it can be, still, why would she hurt her own fam
"What exactly are you trying to say doctor?" Bryan was first to question him, following by Nancy also reacted, "what do you mean by slow poison?" Stacy sighed placing her mobile on the table, "my father uses medicine prescribed by the top doctors, and one of the top most doctors in the city works as our family doctor, how can something like this will happen with my father's medicine?" "I understand what you're trying to say, but here we need to look into the truth rather than discussing about the facts you know," the doctor said with an understanding tone, "we doctors never lie about our patient's condition, what would I even get by lying about Mr. Winterwood's condition? He isn't my enemy or something else, as a doctor, I treat all my patients in a same way." Bryan took the initiative to clear the misunderstanding, "I think there's a misunderstanding here, we aren't saying that you lied to us, it's just we are concerned about how this wrong happened when everything is looked after
"What do you mean by that?" Bryan and Alicia were both taken aback after hearing to Stacy's words, while wiping her sweat away, Stacy nodded her head with a heavy voice, "Dad suddenly felt pain in his chest and collapsed on the floor."Alicia sighed in a worried tone, "where is he? How is he now?" Stacy shook her head with teary eyes, "we aren't sure how is his health condition right now as he is unconscious, but dad is in the living room on the couch." Bryan's expression shifted instantly from shock to concerned. "Did you call an ambulance or a doctor?" He inquired in an urgent filled tone.Stacy responded quickly without any delay, "Nancy called for an ambulance, they must be here anytime, and I came to inform you both, as we aren't understanding what to do while mom is asking for us to wait till the doctor arrives, whereas the doctor has said he'll be here in an hour, I'm so scared Bryan."Alicia, visibly shaken, held her head as she felt the feet under her crumbling. "Oh, God!" S
"Grandma," Stacy and Bryan looked around hearing to Alicia's voice, Stacy walked towards Alicia with a gentle smile on her face, while Alicia's expression immediately softened looking at her grandson and granddaughter, "When your brother gets married one day, do you think he'll still treat you like a princess?"Alicia can't help but to tease her granddaughter who always tags along with her brother throughout the day as if she has nothing to do apart from looking after her brother, while Stacy just chuckled in return, glancing over at Bryan. "I don't think any of those are matters to be concerned in between us grandma, since I trust my brother, and I'm sure he'll always take care of me, even if he is married or not, the affection he has towards me will never be changed." Alicia smiled at Stacy’s confidence and trust in Bryan. "I'm glad to hear that dear. I hope you two always stay this close, looking at both of you like this, I can't help but to feel sad that I never had a brother lik
