"Please help us welcome, our founder's son and first speaker for tonight, Lucas Thompson," a host said in front of the stage, welcoming Lucas. Years had passed. Lucas was now eighteen years old. His parents encouraged him to speak in front of many hopefuls, looking at stem cell treatment as a potential cure for their illnesses. Over the years, stem cell treatments have been used to treat several diseases, including cancer, anemia, and even disorders like cerebral palsy and Parkinson's. Still, with cord blood storage being so expensive, only a few individuals could cope with saving their babies' cord and placenta blood. Thus, Evan established a cord bank foundation where depositors may only opt to give donations. Evan's co-founder was Kaleb Wright, his business partner at the Diamond Hotel. That day was the foundation's opening. It was only fitting that the office is located at the Diamond Hotel while the blood bank remained at Saint Dominique Heart and Lung Center. Everyone wat
"Welcome to Saint Vincent!" Evan announced with his hands raised. "Courtesy of Carribean Sales." "This island, for me, is untouched - just gorgeous," Shantelle remarked as she disembarked from the cruise ship with her daughter, Amara. The older kids followed down the stairs with Lucas and Miguel, then the rest of the gang followed. A year after Shantelle and Evan's tenth anniversary, all the friends agreed to take a break together; Keith and his wife, Karise, Wendell, Milan, and of course, Sean and Reese. Naturally, everyone brought their kids along with their nannies, and a few security guards helped manage their party's safety. "Oh, god! I miss the beach! This is so beautiful!" Karise exclaimed while carrying their youngest daughter, Kaitlyn. Karise carried herself with poise and glam when suddenly, she screamed, "Ahhh!" Her daughter had just slapped her on the face and laughed. "You, okay, Mommy?" Charlene asked as she walked down with Kamila and her daddy. Shantelle la

"Shanty, are you having a great time on our family honeymoon?" Evan asked while putting an arm around his wife. "I think this is the best honeymoon we have ever been to," Shantelle suggested. Evan groaned, saying, "You hurt my feelings." He pressed his lips against her ear and whispered, "What about those nights you scream my name?" "Stop that. We are with the kids. And that's a different kind of honeymoon. You said it yourself. This is a family honeymoon." Shantelle warned while looking back at the tourist bus they had secured, especially for their family. Apparently, Evan's honeymoon trip for their wedding anniversary involved bringing all their kids with them. Shantelle had no complaints, though, because getting the kids out of their heads was difficult. That was probably why they never got to take the trip they had always wanted since Evan and Shantelle re-married. Often, they stayed within the country or the Caribbean at most. Their first destination was Paris. Next, they
"You look beautiful, Mommy," Amara said before looking straight at the aisle and walking ahead. She was throwing rose petals on the red carpet for Shantelle. "Thank you, baby. I love you," Shantelle softly replied before looking up in Evan's direction. Her eyes gleamed, seeing her husband's handsome face. She felt lucky to have Evan, who loved her beyond words, following their second chance. Time passed again, and Evan and Shantelle celebrated their tenth wedding anniversary through a ceremony. Shantelle now wore a crown fit for a queen. She wore a sleeved wedding gown with an A-line skirt. She had no veil on. Shantelle simply wanted her face to be visible to everyone, especially since they only invited close friends and family to their wedding. She was walking to the tune of a song they both related as they overcame endeavors through the years, especially Lucas' illness. It was a song by Kenny Rogers. ~ " I can't remember when you weren't thereWhen I didn't care for anyone
Time came and went. One Saturday, Shantelle and Evan were on their way to the kids' school when the famous doctor received a call from the Heart and Lung Center. "Oh, my god. Okay. I'll be there," Shantelle said on the phone before giving her younger kids a look of regret. Amara also went to the same school and was part of it too. The school was having a Family Day activity. It was supposed to be a fun day for the kids, joining various games and activities with their parents, but even before arriving, Shantelle was already bound to cancel on them. "I will be back. It's just a two-hour operation, and I'll join the games halfway!" Shantelle claimed. She sneered before turning to Evan, explaining, "Doctor Chen fainted and found out she is pregnant. She isn't able to operate, and the patient is already at the hospital, getting prepped." Evan turned to the kids and explained, "Guys, Mommy's work is to save lives! You understand, right?" The kid's shoulders fell as they acknowledg
Two years had passed. Many relevant changes happened between the group of friends. For one, Evan finally divided his group of companies, putting Sean in charge of his financial business. With Evan's business growing, he had more people under his wing, forcing him to get a new assistant so James could handle more demanding roles. Came with it, he and Shantelle gave Tristan an administrative job at the Heart and Lung Center. On the other hand, Shantelle became the medical director for the same center since William retired. Reese became the head therapist at Rose Hills Childrens Hospital, following Lucas' twelfh birthday. Then, months after that, she learned that she was pregnant. Now she had a six-month-old baby boy named Zander, another version of Sean. As for Wendell and Milan, five months ago, they learned they were expecting another child, a baby girl. With Wendell getting more clients outside the city, Milan remained by her husband's side, working as his assistant. However, We
[G&F Manpower International Service has earned its first billion-dollar profit under the leadership of CEO Mister Wendell Franco, naming him the latest hottest and influential man in Rose Hills, next to Keith Henderson and Evan Thompson.] The headlines flooded the internet, and those who knew the group of friends posted photos of them, including Sean Ross. In just a day, citizens of Rose Hills filled the comment sections. [Congratulations!] [To the greatest boss, Sir Wendell Franco.] [He's hot, alright!] [They've known each other since High School, and now, they are some of the wealthiest men in the city.] [They are the hottest in Rose Hills. Too bad they are already married.] [Their wives are gorgeous too.] [All of them are CEOs? How great is that?] [Sean Ross is Evan Thompson's CFO. He isn't a CEO, but he probably earns more than half of the CEOs in the city.] *** Because of the trending news, many companies, inside and outside Rose Hills, began offering Sean opportunitie
Over a year had passed. Evan and his assistant were discussing work when a call came into his office's private line. The man answered the call and learned it was the correctional officer, hired to watch Nicole Lively and Jessica Turner. The jail guard reported, "Miss Lively and Miss Turner tried to escape, along with two inmates. They will be charged for their attempt to escape." "Good," Evan replied. "I'll send my lawyers to discuss with the prosecutor so the additional charges will be prioritized." It made Evan happy. Nicole and Jessica were both getting more sentences for their crimes. His decision to have men constantly watch over them paid off. Thankfully, the Turners had not caused trouble for him. They still aided Jessica, but only to provide for her needs in jail. She no longer had access to the family's funds. That wasn't the only good news Evan received that day. Shantelle visited him during lunch, bringing food packs and setting them on his coffee table. His wife ann
