Paula wanted to get the answers yet she was scared of them. The doctor looked tired.
"Mrs Gale, your his mother if I'm not wrong" the doctor said to make confirmations and Paula nodded since she couldn't even raise a word from her mouth.
"There is good news and bad news, but from this I'll have to start with the good one. If you allow" the doctor continued while Paula was relief when she heard there is at least good news from the tragic event which happened.
"Please you may" Paula answered

"The good news is your son is still alive, we managed to remove the bullet in the spinal cord since he was rushed to the hospital, but due to the position in which the bullet hit it caused some fracture and dislocation of the spine bones which were related to the nerve transmission from the body to the brain. So the dislocated bones are repaired but we really don't know when the could attach each other. In short Madam, Alexander is in a coma and we don't know when he will be able to pass that condition but for now we can assure a safe state other than loss of blood" The doctor finished his explanation and Paula tried to hide her tears but she couldn't.

She wanted to find some one to blame, she couldn't see anyone else but her and the one she hated the most, Adeline. He decided to put all the blame on her and forget about herself, as selfish as she was.

She got out of the room and marched directly to where Adeline was sitting.
" you witch, you couldn't back off you had to come back to ruin my sons life. If you stayed away my son could have married Agatha. And you claim your bastard son is my blood? Did you become poor again? What exactly do you want? Eh!" Paula shouted.

Adeline was so angry that she couldn't help to shut up. "Listen to me very well old lady, I respected you all those years I hoped one day you'll see me as any other women you wanted for your son. You wanted a baby boy and so did I. But I was mistaken you were just greedy you wanted more that you couldn't have. Don't come in front of me blaming me that I caused this to your son and don't ever call my son a bastard I had him when I was still married but due to your dirtiness you swept me away like dust. I still love your son very much but you just disappoint me that he is related to a greedy monster as a mother and that my son has to call you a grandmother.
For whatever happened to your son it is well known he has an heir as you hoped for" Adeline spoke and raised her voice in some places of her speech the words pierced her so much.

Helen and Diana just watched as they were too exhausted. "What happened mom?" Diana asked.
"They don't know when he'll wake up. It fractured his bones" Paula said tears falling down.

"Lets go home for today at least he is alive" Diana said to her mother still holding a sleeping Nathan in her arms.
" Are we going with....." Paula wanted to give a harsh name to her grandson which she did not accept.

"Yes, if I have to, you know what mother don't start with me because I have much to say to you and if you want I can puke a river of words here" Diana said her face's expression was scary in which everyone was afraid of it Including her husband.

"Bring my son you don't have to trouble yourself Diana." ADELINE said overhearing there conversation.
"I'm not troubling myself I too have rights on him which I want to take full responsible of, don't you dare forbid me Adeline" Diana said with the same expression.
Logan took Nathan from his Wife and headed towards the elevator.

"Good bye Helen, Sara" Diana said her goodbye and went Adeline. "It will be okay, take a rest don't make your self miserable" Diana whispered to Adeline with sympathy and kissed her good bye on the cheek.
Paula just marched along with no words since it was pointless to talk to anyone as it was seen everyone was not on her side.

They were on there way to Logan's mansion but Paula changed her mind she claimed she wanted to go Alex's apartment. "I want to have some time alone, all of you keep throwing hurtful words and blaming me" She continued with tears.

"Aren't you supposed to be blamed mother, stop crying and blaming others you are the main cause to this" Diana said to her mother.

"Diana, shut up just let her be. I don't want to here anyone speak in this car or everyone will find there way home alone. I'll leave you here to blame yourselves for what happened. It was meant to happen and it happened, quit talking nonsense everyone's tired" Logan said trying to control his sound while taking a break for Paula to get off since she reached where she wanted to be.

And they continued with silent awkward ride filled with exhaustion and sadness until Diana slept.
................

Helen was dozing off and she was shaken off by Sara who just woke up.
"Wake her up we have to go home it's nine in the morning" Helen said.

"Aunt Adeline, wake up we have to go home " Sara successfully woke her up.
"You just go on, I want to stay here" Adeline replied to her niece and sister, Helen nodded allowing her to stay.
" see you aunt I'll pick you tomorrow" Sara said to her aunt before making her way towards the elevator.

Everyone was fast asleep but Diana woke up when she heard Nathan scream his lungs out ....................
