Hot

"Deal" Carmen agreed to the plan and they both shook their hands against each other.

Sylvester entered and met both of them, shaking. He thought they were fighting, but when he saw the smile on both of them face, he was relieved.

"I brought some food for you, I cooked it myself" He said as he sat on a stool, in between Carmen and Libianca.

"When did you become Mr.Chef?" Libianca asked and they all chuckled.

"I'm going now, I have to meet my father. I'm trying to be a good son nowadays" He muttered and went out immediately.

"Would you mind having a bite?" Libianca asked, Carmen was about to reply when they heard the sound of a knock.

"Come in" Carmen said softly. To her surprise, Richard came in carrying different varieties of cooked food.

"Are you planning to poison me to death now? Your plan to kidnap me and kill me failed, is this your next plan?" Carmen asked with a smirk.

"I would just take a walk, while you two sort this out" Libianca said and exited the room.

"I know it will be hard to convince you, but why can't you just believe me this once? I'm sure Naomi set the trap for you, but I can swear on everything I have that I'm not the culprit" Richard said trying to prove himself innocent.

"I don't wanna see you again, father. The only time I want to see you is when my time for revenge on you is ripe, you just wait, I'll end all of you life one by one. From Zina to Naomi, and then to you, you useless things destroyed my life and killed my mother. You disrupt my dream of becoming a lawyer" Carmen cried out, Richard tried to plead to her by touching her but she pushed him away.

"Don't dare touch me or I call the security, it's high time you start going. I'll investigate about who kidnapped me, if it turns out to be you, I'll tear you to pieces, even if it's not you I'll still take my revenge on you" Carmen warned angrily, she shifted back avoiding the hand of her father.

"Then do what you wish, I'll gladly accept any punishment you give to me" Richard said with a teary eyes, it as if tears were threatening his eyeballs to fall. He tried to hold them back, but it flew down.

"Don't dare shed crocodile tears in my front!" Carmen retorted angrily, she left the room leaving her father behind.

"Welcome, my wonderful son. How are you doing?" Mr.Stallone complimented as he saw his son coming towards him.

"Don't comment good things on me, we both know I'm not a wonderful son. I killed my siblings and also my step-mom. You should call me a disastrous child" Sylvester replied as he sat without been offered.

"Disastrous? No matter what you do, you're still my son, my humble son" Mr.Stallone said as he chuckled, Sylvester smiled staring at his father.

"What if it happened that I end your life with my hand? Would you still consider me as your humble son?" Sylvester asked with a smirk, trying to pin his father down.

"Let's leave that and talk about why I really called you" His father changed the topic not trying to go deeper.

"You called me, I heard the company sales are so low and you are at loss this days, is that why you called me?" Sylvester asked using a handkerchief to mop his face.

His father smile and replied, "Exactly".

"So how can I help you in that situation?" He asked again and sipped some of the drink in front of him.

"Good question. First of all, I'll make you the CEO of this company. Secondly, I want you to marry -- " He stopped when he noticed Sylvester wasn't paying attention.

"Sylv," He called out, he tapped him but Sylvester's eyes was blurry. He couldn't view his father's face very well. "SYLVESTER!!!" He shouted, Sylvester fell down from his chair, he looked deeply into his father's eyes.

Mr.Stallone grabbed his hand to help him out but Sylvester pushed him away angrily.

"You devil" Sylvester said groaning in pain, his eyes closed and he fainted. He was quickly rushed to the same hospital Libianca and Carmen was admitted to.

"Well, we discovered the tea he drank was poisoned, the poison is toxic and is just a colourless, odourless and tasteless poison so there's no way it would show. Hmm, finding the culprit would be hard, for him or her to use this kind of poison, he or she must be an expert" The doctor explained thoroughly to Mr.Stallone who seemed not to be listening.

The doctor noticed he wasn't paying attention to his words, "Is anything okay sir?" The doctor asked.

"Everything is not okay, nothing is okay. Once Sylvester wakes up, he will attack me, he thinks I'm the culprit" He said almost crying but he used his handkerchief to clean the little tears that dropped on his cheek.

"Why don't look for the culprit? Even though he will wake up soon, his immune system is so strong. I won't be surprise if he wakes up today, but we can still buy you some time by injecting him with chemicals that will weak him, until the time you find the culprit" The doctor suggested, Mr.Stallone was so happy with his decision.

"Let's do just that, doctor. I'm so happy, thanks doctor" He thanked and exited the office happily.

"This is gross, may God help him" The doctor whispered to himself, he then opened a file and keep working on his initial project before the arrival of Mr.Stallone. While he was still trying to work, a knock came on his door.

"Come in" He ordered as he sipped some of the coffee that was served for him. Libianca and Carmen entered with a smile.

"How can I help you ladies?" The doctor asked with a smile, his eyes were totally fixed on Carmen.

"Well, we came to check on Sylvester's health, we heard he was also admitted here" Libianca said on both of them behalf.

"And who really you to the patient? You know we just can't disclose our patient information with just anybody." The doctor stated which Carmen and Libianca understand.

"Well, we are, uhmm -- "

"Okay I understand" The doctor muttered as he chuckled. "His medical condition is not critical, and he's improving due to his strong immune system, don't worry about him at all" He assured them, they were about to go when he stopped Carmen to talk to her. Libianca excused them and waited for Carmen outside.

"What do you want to see me for?" Carmen asked nonchalantly.

"Well, let me start with this, are you single or not?" He asked shyly.

"Yes, I'm single" She replied trying to see what he's getting at.

"Do you have anyone in mind? Like someone you have feelings for" He asked again, Carmen smirked.

"Stop beating around the bush and get to the point" Carmen rushed her words nonchalantly.

"Well, I love you and I want us to be -- "

"I know that's where you're going to, I'm not rejecting you but I'm not ready for any relationship right now" Carmen replied nicely and stormed out immediately to avoid any form of sexual harassment.

"She's miss beauty" The doctor whispered as he imagined.

Sean came to the hospital, without getting permission he went to Sylvester's ward.

"Did you come here to check on me or to blab?" Sylvester asked with a chuckle.

"None of the above. I could have just waited to watch some fun between you and your dad, but you might murder him before I make my confession. I poisoned your drink, it wasn't your father's doing. Boom! I hope I just saved someone" Sean chuckled hard as he explained.

"I would surely get back at you, and you'll regret doing this, but thank your stars you told me earlier. If I had deal with my dad before you finally say this, I would make sure I rip out your heart and offer it to his grave" Sylvester growled, he smiled to Sean who frowned angrily.

"Thanks to my conscience, I came early to prevent bloodshed between father and son, though it could have been fun" Sean muttered, he stared at Sylvester's eyeballs.

"But I have to say this, thank you for confessing, or else I would live in regret my entire life even if I rip out your heart" Sylvester thanked him.

"Should I wait for you till you come out?" Sean asked already going out.

"Don't wait, run as fast as you can, once I come out, it would be hot on you and you won't be able to escape anymore" Sylvester warned, Sean smirked and went out.
