THE COME BACK OF AN ILLEGITIMATE SON

CHAPTER 4

Leaving Theodore's room Helen brought out her phone and dialed a number.

"What is it?"

"You need to some home, he needs you." Helen replied.

"Is it that bad?" The lady on the other side asked.

"It is, he is crying."

"What? Did anything else happen other than what the news is carrying?" The voice on the other side asked Helen.

"Yes, a lot and also a truth." Helen said.

"Great! Let's hear it. What is it?" She asked and Helen told her everything.

"I'm on my way." She replied disconnecting the call.

Dalia rushed into the hospital ward where Albert was.

"Son are you okay?" Dalia asked.

"Oh my baby boy look at your face." She said examining him.

"Does it hurt?" She asked.

"It hurts so much mom, he just came angrily at me. He attacked me." Albert finally said.

"Where were you?" Robert asked.

"I was at Nathalie's." Albert replied.

"What where you doing there Albert?" Robert asked.

"Robert now's not the time to be questioning Albert." Dalia said displeased.

"What do you mean? I'm trying to understand the situation."

"What's there to understand? He was beaten up by that bastard child probably cause he is jealous you gave everything to Albert." Dalia said.

"What would you have me do?" Robert asked.

"After Albert is discharged we are sending Theodore out of the house."

"Are you sure that's necessary?" Robert asked.

"And why not? He is not your son and his mother is already dead so why would he keep living with us?" Dalia asked.

"Who knows what he would do? He might just poison us, or kill us in our sleep. Look at what he did to Albert." Dalia complained and Robert sighed.

"Fine we'll do it your way."

Albert smiled inwardly, he had other plans other than taking over the company of which even his mother doesn't know about.

His eyes darkened when he stared at his father, he did something to him and he would surely get his revenge.

"Son get some rest we would be going back home in the evening okay?" Dalia smiled.

"Okay mom." Albert nodded.

Robert excused himself as well as Dalia, they went to see the doctor to make sure Albert's wounds where not serious and would heal completely after a few days. Robert went with Dalia because she insisted.

"I have to go Albert since your parents are here." Nathalie said.

"Good job with the call you made my parents rush over just like I wanted." Albert smiled lovingly at her.

"Of course anything to please you." Nathalie said she pecked him but Albert pulled her in for a steamy rough kiss.

"I wouldn't be seeing you tonight. I have to watch the show my parents have put in place for Theodore."

"Okay, I gotta go." Nathalie said leaving Albert's ward she got a text from Bridget saying she thought they were meeting up.

Bridget was a spoilt princess her father was one of the best judge in the country making them one of the richest in the city. They ranked 15th. And for one to be among the first twenty was no joke. That means you're filthy rich and this makes Bridget hold her head up high.

Everyone had always wondered why the richest man in San Diego always kept a low profile. There was no record of him ever marrying no record of a kid. They always wondered if he was going to give all his wealth to some adopted child or a kid he was fond of. Or if he would donate it to charity.

Nathalie arrived at the shop Bridget asked them to meet.

"What the hell took you so long?" Bridget asked slightly displeased.

"Come on B I was with my boyfriend."

"You are still hanging out with that Theodore loser? Wait you stood me up for a low life with no background?" Bridget argued utterly displeased.

"Come on I was with Albert not Theodore."

"I don't get it?" Bridget asked confused.

"Sorry I didn't tell you Bridget, but I've been dating Albert for almost three years now." Nathalie said.

"Whoa, you've been a girlfriend to both brothers?" Bridget asked surprised.

"Yes, actually I would have broken up with Theodore two years ago but Albert insisted I should keep toying with Theodore's emotions."

"Why did you do it? I mean... I thought you loved Theodore?" Bridget asked.

"I found out he wasn't related to Mr Brantley so I decided to take Albert's offer." Nathalie replied.

"Hmm, well let's go shopping and forget about your miserable life." Bridget said walking into the store, and Nathalie followed her.

Robert, Dalia and Albert finally came home after making sure Albert was fine.

"Theodore? Theodore where the hell are you?" Dalia yelled as soon as she walked into the house.

"Helen where the hell is Theodore?" Dalia asked Helen who was surprised to see Albert face bruised and some parts were even bandaged.

Now she understood why Theodore's hands were stained with blood earlier.

"He is in his room." Helen replied.

"Well call him downstairs will you." Dalia barked.

"There's no need for that." Theodore said walking down the stairs.

Dalia was about to slap Theodore when he caught her hands.

"You have no right to lay your hands on me woman." Theodore said.

"How dare you? Let me go." Dalia yelled her hands was hurting already. Theodore forcefully let go of her hand.

"You good for nothing bastard how dare you lay your hands on Albert." Dalia yelled.

"Well your bastard son deserves it." Theodore retorted.

"How dare you?" Dalia yelled.

"Theodore don't you dare use degrading words for Albert." Robert uttered.

"Why don't you tell that to your wife? I'll stop if she does." Theodore retorted.

"Well Theodore you would be leaving this house you can't live here anymore." Robert finally said.

"I was expecting as much, did they put you up to this?" Theodore asked.

"You've always been a coward Robert." Theodore said since Robert didn't answer.

"Don't you dare talk to my father that way." Albert yelled.

"Do you want your other side to be busted?" Theodore asked making Albert slightly shudder but he tried not to show it.

"Well keep you mouth shut then."

"You dare threaten my son in front of me?" Dalia asked angrily.

"Well you are leaving this house tonight." Robert said.

"No one is leaving this house." They heard someone say from the door.
