Day Eleven…

~~*****~~

[ At Country F… ]

Veronica's doctor friend, Doreen Orji ran several tests on Phantomflake. Dr. Orji is a very well-known Neurologist in Country F. So far, her vitals were stable but the doctor still couldn't figure out the main cause of her brain wave activity.

"How is she?" Nathan asked the doctor. Veronica was also with them. Nathan didn't leave the hospital for the past two days. He was waiting for Phantomflake to wake up.

"Her condition is improving. But we still don't know when she will regain consciousness. I will run more tests tomorrow. I will closely monitor her brain activity so don't worry," Dr. Doreen responded. She exchanged meaningful glances with Veronica.

She knew that Veronica wanted to hang out with Nathan while they were here in Country F. This country is well known for its beautiful beaches. She reassured Nathan so that he wouldn't stay in that hospital just watching over Phantomflake.

"Mr. Sparks, you can't stay here tomorrow because we are conducting another test but rest assured that I will call you once there is significant progress on her health. So I would suggest you explore Country F since you are here. This place is good for relaxation. We don't want you to get sick." Dr. Doreen said with a teasing smile on her face. She thought there was something going on between Nathan and Veronica.

Nathan just frowned, not responding to Dr. Doreen. He was still moody and grumpy and he didn't know why. He was already in Country F but his mind was still wandering off in Country M.

He tried to divert his attention by making himself busy with Phantomflake. But he failed. Abigail was still popping up in his mind once in a while.

He wished he was drunk that night so that he could forget the intimate moment and that passionate kiss they shared together. It was so unfair because he knew that he was the only one who could remember what happened. That's why he was grumpy.

Furthermore, he hadn't heard any news from Joker yet. His investigation was not yet done and Nathan couldn't reach him.

"Nathan… let's go out tomorrow," Veronica finally asked him with her pleading eyes. She was hoping that Nathan would agree.

Nathan fell silent for a moment, contemplating whether to agree or not. But after a few considerations, Nathan bobbed his head as a response.

Who knows exploring the beautiful beaches will help him forget about Abigail?

Meanwhile, Veronica almost jumped with joy after getting Nathan's response. She would definitely wear a pair of hot bikinis to flaunt her figures to Nathan's eyes. She would go all out now in seducing Nathan! This was her chance.

Nathan just excused himself, leaving the VIP ward. He picked up his phone and dialed Ethan's number. There was an eight hours time difference between Country F and Country M. The time in Country F right now is 9:00 am while in Country M is 5:00 pm. Little Ethan was probably at home now after school.

*Ring… Ring… Ring…*

At the Sparks Mansion, Ethan just entered the house when he noticed the call from his father.

The young boy glanced at his phone screen with an amused look. He wondered why his father made a sudden call. He seldom did that whenever he was out of town or out of the country. He was very focused on his business.

"Dad, what's up?" Ethan asked his father innocently as soon as he pressed the answer button and placed the phone on his right ear.

"I just wanna check on you. Where are you?"

"Home," Ethan shortly responded, still skeptical as to why his father called him. He sensed that something was off with his father.

"Is everything fine in the house?" Nathan asked him again. Little Ethan could sense that his father would like to ask about something but he was just hesitating.

"Yes. Everything is fine here." Ethan answered.

"Dad?"

"Yes, son?"

"Are you sure that you called just to check on me?" Ethan's lips curled up into a playful smile, his eyes sparkling.

"Of course," Nathan promptly responded, although, it was so unusual for him to do this.

Ethan just held his laughter and feigned ignorance. He didn't want his father to hang up so he refrained from teasing him.

"Any updates from the house?" Nathan's curious voice resounded once again from the other line.

Little Ethan was already smiling from ear to ear. He felt like his father was dying to ask him about Abigail but he was just restraining himself.

'Dad might be embarrassed to ask me directly.' Little Ethan thought to himself.

"Uncle Li already found a new cook, replacing Chef Min. I heard it was Miss Abi who recommended the new chef."

Nathan reacted right away at the mention of Abigail's name.

"Abigail recommended the new chef? Is it a man or a woman?" Nathan didn't know why he suddenly asked for the gender of the new chef whom Abigail recommended. He wanted to hit his mouth for that slip of the tongue.

p "Dad, don't worry. It's a woman," Ethan giggled at his father's absurd question. 'Why? Does my father don't like Miss Abi to bring another guy to our home?'

"Okay. Where is she? What is she up to?" Nathan could no longer stop himself from asking his son about Abigail's whereabouts.

'Haha! I knew it! Dad called me to know what Miss Abi is doing. Haha!' Ethan rejoiced inwardly. It was surprising that Nathan asked him about Abigail.

"Miss Abi is talking to the new chef in the kitchen. Do you want to talk to her?"

"NO!" Nathan quickly said "No" that he almost yelled.

Little Ethan covered his mouth, trying his best to suppress his laughter.

"Dad, before I forget, Miss Abi told me that she is leaving tomorrow."

"Huh?! She's leaving? But Why? Where is she going?" A deep frown appeared on Nathan's forehead when he heard that. 'I thought her life was in danger. Why is she leaving?'

"I don't know, Dad. But it was Aunt Kathleen who invited Miss Abi for a trip. Maybe Uncle Aiden and Uncle Stephen invited the two ladies to hang out!"

Nathan fell silent from the other line. His face darkened and the frown on his forehead deepened. He gnashed his teeth and he subconsciously tightened his grip on his phone as if he was squashing it in his hand.

'She's hanging out together with Aiden and Stephen…'

Nathan got mad for no reason. But little did he know, Abigail was going to Country F tomorrow to follow him.
