** 2 YEARS BACK **

They all rushed to the hospital the instant their plane landed in America. Alexander was already under the best care. Their family doctor and other specialists were personally taking care of him. Knight group of Industries had a vast chain; and hospital, pharmaceuticals and other medical care related groups were one of its branches.

Alexander ran this hospital to provide free and best health care to the poor and common public since he started running the business. Also, his own gang people were given good medical care here. And today, he himself was lying on one of the ICU beds with several monitors attached to his body.

Even though doctors assured everyone that it was a mild stroke and he will be fine very soon, Cynthia could not stop her tears from escaping her brown eyes. Cupping her face in her palms she sobbed quietly thinking why was this happening to them?

She knew they had never hurt anyone. The ones who got hurt were always the bad people and Alexander never forgives the 'bad' crops. He always worked to give the best for poor and common public.

His every business had a touch of generosity in it, which was also one of the reasons that he was this successful and people truly admired him. He did take care of everyone like the generous human he is!

Then why was this happening to them?

Cici's accident was still fresh in their minds and it broke their hearts into zillion pieces with every single passing day. Of course being a mother she was in pain but she knew what a unique relationship Alexander and Cici shared.

They were not just father and daughter; they were best friends! Like the ones, everyone would feel jealous about. Hell, at times even she herself felt jealous over their friendship. And she knew how it broke him learning how his daughter became a prey to the 'untimely' death.

She never thought she would be seeing her husband in this situation. He was a strong man and kept a healthy life style. When he was hit with diabetes it was a real shocker to everyone. He was very careful about what he ate and drank.

She is his wife; obviously she would be worried about his health!

"Tesoro!"

"Alex?"

She thought he would take time to be conscious but who was she kidding? He was such an impatient man!

"Oh! Alexander!"

Standing up on her feet, she rushed towards his bed while fresh set of tears pooled in her eyes. The only difference was, this time they were the 'happy' tears. She was happy to see him all fine. Thanking god several thousand times, she interlaced her fingers with his complaining like a little girl, "How could you do this to me Alex? I was so scared!"

"I'm sorry to scare you like that!" He whispered with a small smile on his face and she placed her fingers over his lips. Her touch was as soft as a feather and he felt at home.

Shaking her head she whispered, "Don't say sorry but don't you dare scare me like this ever again!"

Seeing his wife like this broke his heart. She was already in pain after losing Cici and now his sudden bad health condition scared her so much. The lady who was not scared of her own death had faced so much. He knew he had to be strong. He had to live for her. He had to take care of himself.

"Where is Xander?"

"He is outside with the others. Everyone is here."

"I want to talk to him and... Is Erasto here?" He asked in soft tone thinking about that young man who lost the love of his life just like he lost his daughter forever while she nodded her head replying, "Yes he is! Why what happened?"
