Clara woke up beside Charles. She woke up with lot of sores from their intimate night. She could not stop looking at his peaceful face that she had wished that he would not wake up. She tried to be quiet as much as possible, but Charles would wake up anytime she moved. He would scowl at her and would get up without a word. He would neither say anything to her nor looking back at her like a lover would be.
It had been years past as Charles continued to search for her and for his son. Clara would then expect a knock after their night. It was the Sung's butler. He would bow down and would signal the maid with him to bring a glass of water and medication of contraception. Clara did mention to him that she was on pills, but he still wanted her to take this counter measures. They had been sleeping every time Charles could not take it anymore of the loneliness that he was feeling.
Clara drank the medicine and let the butler inspected her mouth if she really did swallow the pill. He would bow again before going out. She sighed as the maid remained and was ready for her instructions. She could wish that a miracle for her to conceive a child between Charles and her, but it would go down to drain every time she tried a test whenever she was delayed.
Then a call came, "Yes father" she answered.
"Where are you?" he asked urgently, "I am at Charles"
she could hear her father sighed deeply. "Don't you have any respect on yourself anymore!" he was angry. He was very lenient for her daughter's sake but he could not take anymore how Charles did not take his only daughter into consideration.
"I had it with your stupidity. You had been chasing him for more than you can take. Its dire time to wake up from that foolish dream" he said,
"When a man wants, he will always find ways for you. But it had been more years you could count and he still could not love you" he added, "COME HOME NOW" his angry voice was clear and could be taken as an ordered. He hung up before Clara could try to talk to him.
Charles was busy all day with meeting with different businessmen like him. He did not pose any concern of his health as he was drown into it. He barely had any break, not unless he could not take anymore of the nightmare that he would called out some random ladies including Clara to warm his bed. He did not show any concern. He would always make sure none of them conceive from his as he did not want anymore complications. Jeremy remained by his side as he continued to change. He was merciless with everyone even the smallest thing, it could cause loss of the job.
"Sir, A small uprising business called, Silver B Enterprises. It is headed by a very young man. His name is Jacob Cox" Jeremy reported. This alerted Charles.
"Cox?" he gasped and grabbed the file. "No pictures?" he wondered as he scanned through the files. "Somehow, no one could take any picture of him. He had an interview article recently but no picture of him as per request by the young man. I did ask the reporter of his description, he is around 17 or 18 yrs old. Rather tall of his age. He has a handsome face that can intimidate the reporter. His aura was intense that the reporter did that expect for a young age" Jeremy said,
"Can he be my son?" Charles asked aloud. Jeremy nodded.
"The reporter did notice a beautiful woman with him at the corner during their interview. I showed him the picture and he confirmed that it was Samantha" Jeremy said.
"Then Jeremy find a way for us to collaborate with them" Charles could not contain his happiness to finally found them. Jeremy nodded and left the room.
