The Billionaire Accidental Baby

(Save The Flash)

“I have cancer” He shouted, standing in front of the window.

Everyone’s jaw dropped entailing Raiden himself.

“He’s kidding,” Raiden chuckled, sitting on the couch.

“He’s not Raiden,” Kalani whispered, pointing out the window. Mrs. Walker and Raiden swiveled to the window.

“Is he for real? It’s been long he cried” Mrs. Walker shuttered.

“When he knew he had cancer, why can’t he stop drinking alcohol” Mrs. Walker confided below her whiff.

Raiden walked closer to the window and held the glass and shut the window at his face.

“What’s that Raiden ?” Kalani interrogated.

“Go inside and sleep” Raiden uttered, clenching his teeth against each other.

“Mom” Kalani screamed with a pout.

“Go inside Kal” Mrs. Walker sniffled, taking a seat. Kalani rolled her eyes at Raiden and went inside not after grumbling around the living.

” What should we do mom ?” He inquired, resting his palms on his shoulders.

“I don’t want to see him, he keeps irritating me. How can he hide such from me, this isn’t right. Despite being a drunkard I accept him because he wasn’t like this before. Paul wasn’t like this. I don’t want to say I regret getting married to him because of my love for him.” She paused, sniffing her nose.

” I just wished Piper could remember her memories. I can’t have back from assets and wealth without the statement of wealth” Mrs. Walker sobbed, holding her forehead.

“There’s nothing we can do mom. We just have to keep hoping she remembers everything” Raiden growled, switching off the television.

“But your dad has leukemia,” Mrs. Walker said.

“So, he’s not my dad. This father of mine almost made me annihilate someone in school just because he was antagonizing a girl at the restroom. I don’t want to see him around this building. ” Raiden grumbled walking out of the living room.

Kalani strode out of her secret hideout and hugged her mom from behind.

“Let’s accept him, mom,” Kalani grumbled.

“We can’t Kalani, he’s going to let me spend nonessential money on his disease. I can’t trust to chance anything for him again” Mrs. Walker said with a grim smile.

“But he’s here, we should be delighted he came back mom” Kalani grimaced.

“There’s nothing there to be happy about. ” Mrs. Walker declared, walking back inside the kitchen. Kalani pouted and stood up. She tip-toed to the window and inaugurated it.

“Dad,” She called in a whisper. She called again, a little louder this time around to get his notoriety. He turned around with a soft sniffle.

“Kalani” he called and she smiled.

“Should I open the door for you?” she asked, blinking her eyelashes rapidly.

“You don’t have to, I think it’s high time I let you guys live your life.

“Are you sure you will be okay?” She asked, with a worried face.

“I will Kalani. You need to go back and sleep” he said, standing up on his feet with a groan.

“Did you know that sister Riley will be back tomorrow afternoon” Kalani brought up another discussion…

“What happened to her ?” He asked with a panicked voice.

“Did you care about them ?” She asked with widened eyes.

“I do– if you do care about them then why did you sell her off to that old man in the first place” She cut him off with a yell.

“I’m sorry Kalani, I wasn’t in the right state of mind” He stuttered.

“Don’t tell me that, you are ungrateful, I regret pitying you minutes ago but I think sending you away is the best thing. Not as if you take your responsibilities as the breadwinner of this family.” Kalani muttered, closing down the window and turning around when her eye came in contact with her mom’s.

She shuttered “Mom” she called, twisting her fingers at her back.

“What was that ?” Mrs. Walker interrogated.

“It’s nothing mom” She murmured.

“Go inside, I will call you when I’m done cooking,” Mrs. Walker said and left the living room.

Same Night ( 11:35)

The four wheels of the stretcher could be seen how fast it was moving. Glory, Richard, and Owen could be seen running after the stretcher with a few nurses.

“It’s a stretcher case” The nurse screamed, catching the attention of her co-workers.

“It’s an emergency case,” A nurse said to the doctor.

“Should we just move them to my hospital?” Glory suggested, staring at Owen and Richard.

“Your hospital is still miles away from his penthouse, We will move them when it’s morning,” Owen replied, pacing to and fro the ICU.

“Where are those idiots ?” Glory rasped, taking the exit.

“You don’t worry Miss Glory, they have been escorted to the police station,” Richard replied.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Better, Collins will know what to do with them when he wakes up. I just hope the surgery is successful ” Glory mumbled, sitting at the waiting area.

Two Hours Ago

Glory hissed loudly when she found Collin’s house empty but found his maids and guards at their quarters… She knew instantly that he’s either at his penthouse or out for fun. She picked up her phone to call Owen since her mind felt restless. After minutes of trying his number line, he picked up the call.

” I won’t beat around the bush Owen,” She said and continue. “Do you know Collins’ present location?” She asked.

” Yes, he called me this morning and inform me of his whereabouts. He said he wants to spend the night at his penthouse”Owen answered.

” Okay, are you still at work ?” She asked.

“No, but his new accountant went there to submit his firm’s statement of financial position. But I’m heading there right now. Because I need to show him some contract that might later run down his business, so I want his approval on those contracts before I decline them all ” Owen exhaled.

” we should meet there then” Glory smiled and end the call.

“Can I drive you there ma’am? Mr. Walter’s mood looked sober this morning when he left “ Richard” further.

“I thought you were on holiday for a week,” Glory asked with an apprehensive expression.

” I was given, but I resumed early. Can I drive you, ma’am ?” He asked.

“I’m fine with it” She replied without wasting much time, Richard rode down to his penthouse which was forty (40) minutes drive.

The heavy flames from the burning fire made Owen, Glory, and Richard crazy in emotion. Glory went on her knees instantly as tears streamed down her cheeks.

“Bring down the fire” She screamed in agony as her hand kept shaking to the extent of not carrying a bucket of water.

Richard poured water on himself and ran inside the building to save Piper and Collins. Dialed 911… As she was about to turn around she bumped into Adams and Alex. Unfortunately, they were holding a keg of gasoline.

Words became heavy for her. With a roar, she punched Adams on the face.

“I will ruin you Peter Adams’ ‘ She gasped loudly, clenching her teeth against each other.
