Happy reading 📖

Donatella's POV

It's been four days since I saw or even heard from Carter. I didn't want to call him. I wanted him to call me.
Ricky is in charge of the project now. We have already supplied the materials needed. I have left everything in his hands now.
I am now interested in spending more time with my baby.
I'm so worried about my husband.
My mother is calling me. I happily picked up.
The phone dropped from my hand. I can't believe my mother got involved in an accident.
God! Why is this happening to me? I thought everything is going smoothly now!! Why me!!
I'm leaving to Canada right now!
"Mom please don't leave me. I need you. God please don't take her away." I began sobbing.
"Deborah!!!" I called her.
"Why are you shouting? Just breathe in and out. It's just a panicked attack. You need to stay strong for Carter Junior. Put yourself together." She hugged me.
The tears are not stopping.
I told her what happened to my mom. She is in a very critical condition now.
I packed few of our clothes. I told Deborah to stay back. I am going with my son.
We will come back with mom. I'm never leaving her again. I'm going with a hired private jet. My son is sleeping now, he doesn't even know what's going on.
We are on our way to the airport now.
Ricky was the one who arranged for the flight. He too is staying back.

Carter's POV

"Doctor, can you discharge me already?" I am frustrated. It's been four days since I got some part of my memory back. I want to see my wife and my son. I hate the fact that I'm lying down here doing nothing.
"You will be discharged tomorrow." He said and left.
"Son, why are you forcing yourself to get discharged? You are not well. I don't want anything bad to happen to you. You are my only treasure left on this earth." My mother sounded so worried about me.
Looking at my mother makes me more angry than I am with myself. Why is she acting like she truly cared about me? I can't let her know that some part of my memory is back. I have to play along with her.
"I'm okay mom. Tell the doctor to discharge me now. I have a surprise for you and I have been planning about it for days now! Today is the day and I don't want to postpone it." I lied to her.
"Okay son. Hope it is worth it." She kissed my forehead and went to see the doctor.
I picked up my phone to call Paige. It was switched off. Is everything okay with them?
I called my PA to do a reservation for me. I'm setting my mom up for a blind date. I know she will get mad but I have to see my family.
I am finally out of the hospital. I called one of the drivers to pick up my mom. I am driving to Paige's house.
"Mom, I'm going to the penthouse. The driver will be here very soon. Love you." I kissed her forehead and drove away.

I reached her house and parked my car. I'm so happy to see them. I can't let her know the truth about my memory. Silvia my secretary told me to pretend for awhile because danger is still looming around us. My mother could hurt them.
I rang the bell three times. Finally, Deborah opened the door.
"Good afternoon." I greeted her.
"Good afternoon Mr Hubert."
"Is Mrs Alder around?" I queried.
"No Mr Hubert, she left to Canada with her son." This news weakened me.
"Did she give up on me?"
I'm following you till death do part my love.
