ETHAN POV
“Are you okay?” Ethan asked Ella on their way home.
“I guess I’m fine but I almost had a panic attack when the bazooka exploded in front of us. I thought I was going to die” Ella sobbed and his heart melted.
“But you didn’t and it’s all thanks to Gold but I promise you sunshine that we are going to put an end to my evil uncle” Ethan promised her
“Sunshine? since when did you give me a nickname?” Ella asked Ethan
“Since today” He whispered smiling as Ella couldn’t help but do the same
“I love you Ethan”
“I think I should get a nickname too” Ella said as she chuckled, “Tell me you love me too”
“I love you so much more” I kissed her lips.
“And we are here” Ethan whispered and they got down from the car.
“Uncle Ethan, uncle Ethan is here and Aunty Ella” Mike giggled and ran to hug Ethan who lifted him up and he grinned
“Hey kiddo, how was school today?” Ethan asked
“Not bad because daddy got to know that I have a crush”
“You have a crush?” Ethan asked surprised.
“Your mum is going to freak out when she learns about this. My sister actually told me that Gold is strict about these things”
“Yes but daddy says it has to be books before girls” Mike sighed.
“You know he is right” Ethan said to Mike and he nodded
“Of course”
“Yeah, that reminds me, no one told me mom was a superhero. see how she took care of the bad guys It was amazing” Mike squealed.
“Yeah, your mom is pretty super” Ethan said to him pulling his cheek playfully
“Superheros are meant to save scared people like Aunty Ella” Mike said and Ethan laughed as he said that.
“I was not scared” Ella frowned.
“You were”
“Yeah, whatever. Who wouldn’t be scared?”
“Uncle Asher, I want to become a policeman”
“What?” Ella and Ethan yelled and Mike froze
“Did I say something wrong?” He asked them astonished at their expression
“Why on earth would you want to be a policeman? your dad is wealthy for crying out loud” Ella said.
“But that has been my dream and my former daddy supported me” Mike pouted.
“Your aunt is right because your mum would not even hear of it talk less of my brother so choose another profession instead” Ethan said to MikeNôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
“A soldier?” Mike said again
“No, that’s even worse” Ethan and Gold said as they bursted bout laughing
GOLD POV
“Oh my God Freddie, I think I forgot my purse in the hospital”
“What? why should you forget your purse in the hospital? Are you a baby or something?” Fredrick whined
“No time to ask questions just reverse back” Gold pleaded with him
“It’s still hard to believe a grown up lady forgot her purse” Be complained
“Freddie, were you not in the hospital together with me so why didn’t you remind me to take it” Gold glared at him blaming him as well
“How was I supposed to know?” Fredrick asked
“I are not at fault here, so don’t try to shift the blame on me”
“Whatever”
“Are you still going back to the office?” Gold asked him but he nodded negatively
“No, I think I’d just stay back at home hence Charity and her husband will be coming over”
“oh, okay”
“Trust me you’ll love her” Fredrick sounded convincingly to her
“If you say so” Gold replied as she chuckled.
They soon got to the hospital and Fredrick parked the car in the parking lot.
“Stay here and wait for me” Gold instructed him but he pouted
“Why can’t I come with you?” Fredrick complained starring at her
“No, baby just stay here while I go get my purse from the doctor’s office”
“Ok fine, just go”
Okay”
“And please be careful”
“I will”Gold said and pecked his lips before stepping out of the car then walked into the hospital and headed straight for the doctor’s office. She was at the hallway leading to the doctor’s office when she sighted two guys in casual wears seated close to two couples who were busy kissing themselves but the two guys looked suspicious.
The other guy nodded for the guy closer to the couples and he put his hands behind him obviously, trying to bring out a gun.
“Mrs Charity Unite Damon” The doctor called for them to come in hence it was their turn
“That’s us” Gold heard the lady tell her spouse but then she paused for a moment
“Cynthia Damon, Isn’t she Fredrick’s cousin? Oh God, someone wants to kill his cousin” Gold soliloquies and without thinking twice, her hands reached into her thigh then she brought out a pistol gun from her thigh holster. By then, The couples already stood up and were about entering the doctor’s office when the other guy pointed the gun at the lady’s husband and hence they were backing the guys, they probably won’t know what was going on behind them but Gold immediately aimed for his hands and shot his hands. He screamed and the gun dropped from his hands while the other guy tried to reach for his gun but before he did, Gold shot his forehead then people began to scream and run.
“What the hell who sent you to kill me?” Unite immediately pounced on the guy with the bleeding hand.
“Gold” the lady called as she ran to hug her but Gold looked at her in surprise
“How do you know my name?” Gold asked
“You are my cousin’s fiancée and my name is Charity. Thanks for what you did back there” Cynthia appreciated
“It’s nothing”
“Baby are you okay?” Fredrick ran to Gold and pulled het into a hug.
“I’m fine Freddie”
“I panicked when I heard gunshots”
“Baby, your cousin is here”
“Charity? and is that Unite?” Fredrick asked referring to the guy who was busy beating up one of the assassins and the guys face was already bleeding until Gold heard a bone crack as Unite twisted the guy’s arm.
“Your husband is pretty good at tutoring people” Gold said to Charity but the assassin’s shout drew their attention hence he was ready to talk
“Ahhhh, please I’ll talk it was Mr Damon who wanted you dead”
“That’s all I need to hear” Unite said and gave him a huge punch that made him go unconscious.
“What? my dad wanted my husband dead?” Charity exclaimed sadly
“Baby, don’t try to stop me because I’m going to kill your father” Unite said to Charity in an angry tone
“We are on the same page then beause I’m still going to kill him” Charity added.
“That’s good to hear. Nice to meet you again Mr. Fredrick” Unite greeted as they both exchanged handshakes.
“Thank you Miss Gold for saving my life” Unite appreciated Gold
“You are welcome, I did it for humanity I guess”
“I think I like the new you” Fredrick whispered and kissed her forehead.
“Actually Freddie, I think I left my purse at home”Gold finally said to him and he stood speechless
“You mean you left your purse at home?” Fredrick asked her
“Yes” Gold replied with a pout
“Glad we came back though”
“Freddie I’m hungry” Gold complained pulling him closer to her then he smiled
“Let’s go home then” Fredrick said to her and led her out then immediately the police arrived the scene
CHARITY POV
“Dad, how could you?”Charity yelled walking into the house with her husband hence Gold and Fredrick had to go home.
“I’m glad she got there on time, if she didn’t, probably Unite would have died. Oh how I hate him so much now for trying to kill the love of my life but right now I don’t care if he dies” Charity muttered angrily inside of her
“What did I do?” Damon asked but when he looked at Unite, he was obviously surprised to see him alive.
“Bastard, you tried to kill me” Unite rushed him and immediately pounced on him but Charity didn’t make any attempt at all stop him at all because he deserved it anyways.
Austin just sat arms crossed and watched Unite beat up his father and he could do anything about it anyways until the police walked in and separated them, else Unite would have killed Damon.
“Sir, we will take it over from here” The policemen said to Unite
“Why bring the police into my house?” Damon questioned pretensiously admist the injury he sustained
“Mr Damon, you are under arrest for the attempted murder of Mr Unite Edmund and so many evil things. You have the right to remain silent for whatever you say here will be used against you in the law court” The police said to Damon and they took him out
“You can’t do this to me, Cynthia please talk to your husband and remember that I’m still your father” Damon pleaded fearfully
“Did you remember that I was still your daughter when you tried to kill my husband. If Gold didn’t come on time then probably my husband would have been dead. I abhor you dad and from now henceforth you seize to be my father I disown you and don’t want to even see you again” Charity yelled in tears and Unite wrapped his hands around her then pulled hwr into a hug.
“Charity.” Damon called sympathetically hoping she would change her mind but she ignored him
“Take him away” The senior officer ordered
“You can’t do this to me” Damon yelled as they dragged him out.
“I’m sorry” Unite muttered after Damon was taken out
“Come on don’t be baby moreover he’s not my father anymore”
“Let’s go then” Unite said to her but when they were about leaving Austin called her
“Charity”She heard her name and when she turned it was Austin
“I’m… I’m… I’m…” he stuttered but Charity didn’t allow him finish whatever it is he wanted to say
“You what?” Charity asked him rudely
“I’m sorry for all I did to you, the hate and all. I always hated it when dad always compared both us despite the fact that you were always on Fredrick’s side” Austin said to Charity
“That apology should be for Fredrick and Ethan but not me because I bea no grudge against you”
“You know I can’t do that” Austin said to her
“You have to let go of your pride and apologize and stop chasing Gold because she’s Fredrick’s and it’s high time you accepted that”
“You know that is not possible because I love her too” Austin said more like a lamentation
“Suit yourself then but don’t say I didn’t warn you. Stop all these now that you can because Fredrick is not someone you can go against” Charity warned then he sighed as he replied
“I’ll think about it”
“OK”
