NovelHook/When The Clock Ticks (series 2)/Chapter 97

When The Clock Ticks (series 2) Chapter 97

"My love" Louis suddenly realized that he shouldn't be there. He turned around, ignoring the woman who was groaning in pain and dashed out. "I'm dying" Miranda Alvan was able to say "I'm dying". She looked at Romeo for help but the latter just glared at her. Her bleeding was obvious and he said "I think you should call the ambulance at once" he instructed the servant and left. Ellis couldn't ignore the woman. He called the ambulance and Miranda was taken to the hospital in a semi unconscious state. Lucas was at home with Clarion and Ethan. Pamela and Alice had just left to get some items. Clarion was babysitting one week old Ethan Hayden. Suddenly, there was a car honking. Louis arrived at Pamela's Mansion. Clarion wondered what the ladies had forgotten that they returned to get it. But to her utmost surprise, the door opened and he walked in hastily. He stood before Clarion and his eyes moist. "Grandma Clarion" Louis stuttered. He doesn't know what else to say. Pamela was nowhere but he saw Lucas holding a baby in a careful fragile way. He knew at once that the baby Lucas was holding was his son with Pamela. This is his little Ethan. "President Hayden! Are you…" Lucas stuttered and suddenly paused. He doesn't know what else to say that wouldn't sound as if he was being insultive. "Lucas Wright" Louis said and walked over, and took the baby. Lucas gently gave Ethan to his real father and stepped backwards. Louis carried his baby and mumbled "My baby, my little son…I'm sorry Hun, daddy is sorry for not being there for you…" you paused, sniffling to free his airway from the choking sensation that blocked it. He lifted him to his face and he kissed his little thin lips. The little boy yawned and stretched his little hands. He seemed to acknowledge his father's presence. "Ethan, my son. It's daddy. I'm back to you, your siblings and your Mommy. Daddy is back okay" Louis declared and smiled, sniffling more. He kissed Ethan's neck and next his temple. He seemed to be engrossed with his son that he didn't notice the cold stare coming from Clarion. Lucas had caught Clarion glaring coldly at Louis from his split vision and he sighed softly. Pamela's Aunt is not interested in who was holding her grandson but she cannot do anything about it because he is Ethan's father. "Looks like the billionaire Louis Hayden had recovered his memory" Clarion mumbled and chuckled mockingly. Louis suddenly paused. He raised his head and stared at Clarion with a remorseful gaze. He sighed softly and said "I remembered who I was, a while ago" Clarion's stare became more irritating. She eyed Louis, glancing at him from his head to his toes and back again. Louis saw her staring at him, and felt sad. Pamela's grandma is unhappy with him as well. He swallowed hard, his eyes moist and he said "Grandma Clarion, please.. " he was going to say she should forgive him when the latter raised her hand and shut him up. "I am not your grandma. I am Aunt or Mrs Clarion to you. You just remembered the past and you brought your shameless face to this place, do you have a conscience?" Clarion snapped at him with resentment. "I am sorry grandma" Louis apologised. He bowed his head, as he stared at his son, whose eyes are now open as he stared at his father. "Keep your sorry to yourself, your mother and your wife. My granddaughter doesn't need that word. It won't increase her back account, it will only hurt her healing heart. I let you carry that boy because he is your son. But besides that, you are not welcome here. You stay away from my daughter henceforth. I know that you have recovered your memory, tendencies are that you will begin to pursue her again. Stay away from her. I'm happy that you are back to who you used to be. You are now the Louis Hayden that we all used to know. Congratulations to you. I'm glad, from the depth of my heart, I'm happy for you. But you see, my granddaughter just learnt to be herself again. Leave her alone. Stay away from her. She's moved after you moved on. Both of you have moved on with your life, and that's better for us all. Return to your wife and your daughter. I will see that you and Pamela's lawyer meet and she will arrange for you to come and see your kids. Besides that, you both have nothing else in common" Clarion declared. Louis sniffled. He handed the baby back to Lucas and cleaned his tears. "I know I have hurt Pamela over and over again. I have wounded her loving heart. But believe me, this is not from my heart. I don't remember a thing. I was lost. I only acted on what I was told. I believe those around me, I thought they wouldn't lie to me. I don't have the slightest memory of my life with Pamela. Please grandma Clarion, don't ask me to stay away from my woman. I love Pamela very much" Louis explained. "I quite understand your plight. But if those around you cannot tell you the truth, how can they ever be truthful to my daughter? I can't let her be with wolves in sheep's clothing. You have a life now. You have a family too. You have a daughter as well. Your life is complete. Stay with your family and accept your Fate. My granddaughter is too honourable to be your mistress. Looks like she'd only been a baby machine for you. The first time, she carried your babies without your knowledge. Second time, she carried your son without your knowledge. You're so close and yet very distant. You see her often and yet, do not know her. Stay with that scandalous wife of yours and your amazing mother" Clarion declared. She feels sorry for the young man but there's nothing anyone can do. He'd chosen his paths and that's alright for him. He had treaded the path of deception, but he must learn to live with it.
