The news about what happened last night during the Annual Symposium was all over the news. Hearing Ethan got shot, the media folks flew to where he was confined to get an information about his health. However, Master Omni told the security not to allow any form of media to get near his grandson.

"Ethan Saphiro Williams, the CEO of the Saphiro Gentz Empire is in comma." It was the information that Larry told the news reporters who has been waiting outside the hospital for how many hours now.

"Is he really in a comma? Or was he dead?"

"I think he"s already dead. He was unconscious when the ambulance came."

There was division of opinions both in the social media and in the business world.

On the other hand, Silver Gray was watching television early in the morning. He was overjoyed to hear some reports and speculations about the Williams.

"Did you do it?" he heard Sherry asked while walking down the stairs.

"Oh, your well dress up honey, where are you going?" He grinned from ear to ear.

"I"m going to the hospital."

"Hospital?" he creased his brow.

"I"m going to visit Ethan." She casually said while she sat opposite him. Silver"s jaw dropped.

"Why should you?!"

"Silver it"s necessary! Don"t you think that you are the number one suspect for what happened to him?"

"And so? Let them think that way cause my game had just begun." He smirked.

"Whether you like it or not, I"m going." Sherry insisted.

"Do you think they will receive you wholeheartedly? It"s just as you say, we are the number one suspect."

"It"s worth the try."

"Okay. it"s up to you." Silver stood up annoyingly.

She was looking at the unconscious man before him.
She went near him. she held his cold hand. She tears up.

Master Omni came near her and tapped her shoulder. "Let him rest for a while." He comforted. "You should also rest. Eat and fixed yourself. you won"t like Eli to see you like that, right?"

Aisha nodded. "Just a little longer, please grandpa." She pleaded.

"Okay." then Master Omni left the room. Caleb was outside the room talking to his uncle Rio who went home early morning. He was tasked to report how Aisha was doing currently.

"I have asked someone to check all the CCTV cameras in the hotel last night so we could figure out who did this gruesome thing. But don"t ever mention this to her." Rio commanded on the other line.

"Not a problem uncle."

"Just watch over her for now."

"Yes Uncle." Then he hung up. As soon as the call got disconnected, he saw Master Omni came out from Ethan"s room. Caleb saw him closed the door with hesitation.

"Master Omni…"" he looks at him.

"I"ll be back tonight. We should transport him as soon as possible."

"I understand."

Then Master Omni went off.

Last night, while Aisha fell asleep, they talked about the incident. Master Omni was suspecting Silver, same as Rio. But Caleb was thinking that it could also be the bounty hunters. They were not sure who their real target is—is it Aisha or Ethan. But Rio was able to discover that they have a mutual enemy –Silver Gray. He doesn"t know the story as to why but he"ll know it soon.


It was also Master Omni"s idea to disclose that Ethan is in a comma. Well, he is not. The operation last night was successful, thank G.o.d. But they have to be cautious though. That"s why they have to present to the media that Ethan is in comma. They might as well give a partial happiness to their enemies.

She was looking at his pale face.
Tears escaped her eyes as she pulled his hands close to her cheek.

"I"m sorry. I"m really very sorry. I failed to protect you." She sobs.

"I swear from the bottom of my heart that I will end this as soon as possible. I will find whoever did this to you and I"ll make sure that person will regret the day he pulled the trigger." Her voice was firm.

She laid beside him as she embraced him. she was careful not to touch his wound.

Caleb was standing outside Ethan"s room for a while now so he decided to peek inside. Looks like Aisha fell asleep so he decided to leave them for a while. He asked some of their men to guard the entrance of the room.

He was at Aisha"s room when the door opened.

"Lisa?" he was shocked. Then he saw a little boy who peeked behind her. aww, he"s so cute.

"I-I"m sorry for not knocking." She blushed. Eli looked at Lisa then to Caleb. he smirked.

"Aunty, is he your boyfriend?"

"N-No! he"s just a friend. He is your mom"s best friend." She smiled at the young boy.

"Where"s mom?" Eli suddenly asked.

"Uhm, she"s at your dad"s room. she"ll be here anytime soon." Caleb a.s.sured him. Eli sat at the couch facing a wide LED television.

"Do you want to watch while waiting for mommy." Lisa offered.

"Ehm." He nodded. Lisa took the remote control from the drawer and picked a good children"s show. Eli can"t possibly watch the news right now.

"Have you eaten yet?" Lisa asked Caleb.

"Not yet."

"I brought some food. Help yourself."

"Later."

Lisa stared at him questioningly.

"What?" Caleb raised a brow in curiosity.

"Eat!" Lisa shoved the food tray to Caleb.

"Fine! Fine!" Caleb dejectedly took the tray of fruits. Since when did he surrender his will to this woman?

"You haven"t eaten anything yet since last night. take some at least." Worry is visible in her eyes. "also, your s.h.i.+rts are in that bag." She pointed out the black paper bag on the couch. Caleb knitted his forehead.

"Are you sure it will fit me?" he sneered. Lisa glared at him.

"Just be thankful that Sophie handed those to me, if not, I would have bought you the worst ones, like what you did to me before --- remember?" her eyes hint an annoyance.

"Okay, okay. just calm down." he chuckled.

After a moment, Lisa asked Caleb if they can see Aisha at Ethan"s room. Caleb looked at Eli while thinking. Eli stared back at him as if he knew Caleb"s dilemma.

"I"m okay. I can handle it Uncle Caleb." Eli smiled sheepishly.

"Okay. as you wish little pal." He caressed the boy"s hair.

Lisa took the things that she bought for Aisha. she definitely needs to change into a nice clothe. They rather eat at Ethan"s room as well.

The three was nearing the door when they heard a commotion inside Ethan"s room. Caleb knitted his brow. When they opened the door, they were stunned to see a woman standing opposite Aisha. they were glaring at each other intensely.

"You! Take your a.s.s out of here!" Aisha"s tone doesn"t need to explain her emotions. She is mad. Very mad.
