Chapter Fifty Three

Barbie got to the hospital and went to the VIP center. She saw the doctor checking his brother.

“What happened to him?” She asked. The doctor brought down his mask and shook his head.

“He isn’t responding to treatment and there was a lot of internal injury mostly his head. If he doesn’t wake up tomorrow, he is in a coma”

Barbie stepped back a little. She was shocked. She started to wonder how many days it would take for her brother to wake up.

“No, this can’t happen again. This would be the second time doctor…” She said, almost yelling.

“Relax mistress, let’s just hope till tomorrow” the doctor tried to calm her down.

“I don’t want to listen to that trash. I want my brother awake as soon as possible!” She yelled and stormed out of the room.

The doctor took a long sigh and walked back to Calvin’s bed.
.
Erica had finished two bottles already. Kelvin was still sipping from his glass.
She was already drunk, adjusting her dress. She untied her hair and ruffled her hair.
She sighed and laid on Kelvin’s lap.
“I’m sick!” She groaned.

Kelvin stared at her and diverted his gaze back the other tall buildings.
“Sick of what?” She asked.

“I don’t know… Everything?” She said and stared at him. This time, he stared at her also.

“Everything like what?” He asked again.

“Just everything. I just can’t wait to get married, have my own kids”

Kelvin smirked.
“I see” he said.

“And you want to spend the rest of your life with me huh?” She asked.

He smiled weirdly. Calvin supposed to be the one answering this question and not him.
“Sure, I would want to” he said.

She laughed and sighed again.
“I think I’m drunk, take me home please” she murmured. Kelvin has been waiting for that. He just wanted to be away from her for some minutes.

He helped Erica up and they went downstairs. He took a secret route to the parking lot and opened the car.
“Get in” he said. Erica turned, leaning on the car. She was staring at him pretty closely.

“You seem quite different today” she said.

Kelvin just wished Erica doesn’t notice he was the one. He smiled and chuckled, trying to act like his brother.
“Really?” He asked.

“Yeah, maybe because you miss your brother” she said and placed her hands on his shoulders.

“I guess” he said, nodding his head. He didn’t want anything to be obvious.

“You don’t need to think about him, he’ll be back soon. He just need some time alone” she said.

“Yeah, I hope so” she said.

Erica smirked and opened the car. She entered into it and slammed the door hard.

Kelvin took a long sigh and also entered the car. He started the engine and zoomed off immediately.
.
Ava left the party minutes ago. She went home and saw George on the couch. She wondered why he didn’t come to the grand opening but he was dressed for it.

“Did he doze off?” She murmured and went to tap his shoulder. She was stepping on broken ceramics on the floor.

“George?” She called out again, still no response.
She dropped her bag and switched on the light to take a better view of him. She saw that he was beaten up already, but by who?

“George?? Wake up!” She yelled, smacking his arm.

She started sobbing as she took her phone. She called the ambulance before calling Erica.
.
Erica was already asleep in the car. Kelvin drove slowly, careful not to wake her up. He didn’t want any more question from her.

He got distracted when her phone started ringing. He quickly picked it from her hand and answered the call.

“He…”

“Erica, he isn’t waking up. He…”

“Who are you talking about?” She quickly asked.

“Kelvin, please help me. George isn’t waking up” she said, sobbing.

“Relax Ava, I will be there soon. Just call the ambulance, okay?” He said in a low tone.

“I have, they will be here any second..I don’t know why.. they are here already, I have to hang up” she said and disconnected the call.

Kelvin returned her phone and increased his speed.
He needed to find a way to help Ava since she’s keeping his secret.
.
“I don’t know okay. I just got back from an event!” Ava yelled at the cops that was investigating the case. She watched as they rolled George out of the house, into the ambulance.
She ran to him, and started shaking his body.
“Wake up George” she said.

“He’s fine, he’s breathing just fine. We just have to get him to the hospital” the doctor said. They pulled Ava back to give the nurses chance to take George away. Ava started to sob.

That was when Kelvin arrived at the scene.
He alight from the car and ran to Ava.
“Where is George?” He asked.

“They just took him away. Help me please!” She cried.

Kelvin placed his hand on her shoulder and turned to face the cops.
“There’s a security camera. Look around..” he said.

“Yes sir!” He replied and they started looking for the camera. They found the room and knocked the door.

“Hello! Security!” They knocked but there was no response.

“Move back!” Kelvin said and break the door open. They stormed in and saw that the security man was dead already. He was attacked first, before George was attacked.

“Look into this…” Kelvin said and walked Ava out of the security room. The cops found out that all the footage was stolen and the camera round George’s house to the security post was damaged badly.

“Why are they doing this? Huh?” Ava asked Kelvin.

“You just have to relax Ava. Everything will be fine and back to normal. You just wait and see” he assured her.
.
Erica shot her eyes wide open slowly and saw that she was in front of her brother’s house.
She looked round and saw the ambulance driving out of the compound with cops car around.

“What’s happening here?” She murmured and found her way out of the car. She walked towards Kelvin and Ava.

“What happened?” She asked.

“Erica… George was attacked” Ava started crying. Erica closed her mouth in shock.

“I didn’t see that coming” she said and closed her mouth.

“Let’s go Erica. He was taken to the hospital already” Kelvin tried to walk her back to the car.

“No, I have to see my brother!” She said and flagged down a cab. She walked into it and zoomed off.

“Erica! Erica!” Ava yelled.

“She didn’t even take her purse, how would she pay for the cab?” He murmured and rushed into the car. He started it and rolled down the glass.

“You coming?” He asked Ava. She nodded and got into the car.
They zoomed off behind the cab.
.
They got to the hospital when it was 9pm.
Erica didn’t even pay for her ride, she just alight from the car and ran off.

“Hey ma’am!” The driver yelled. She still didn’t wait.

“Here, keep the change” Kelvin gave the driver and ran behind Erica. Ava ran behind him also.

“Where’s George?” Erica yelled.

“Erica, relax!” Kelvin said, trying to calm her down.

“No, I can’t. Where the f*ck is he?”

“He’s awake, come this way ma’am” the doctor appeared from no where and said.
Erica was the first to run behind him.
.
They got into the room and saw George laying on the bed. There was bruise all over his face.

“Oh George, how are you feeling?” Erica asked as she grabbed her brothers hand.

“I’m… Good” he stammered.

“You got us worried. What happened?” Kelvin asked.

“Yes, what happened?” Ava asked.

He sighed deeply.
“I was on my way to the event. As I opened the door, someone stormed in like he has been waiting for me to get out quickly. He was masked, I couldn’t see his face. He came at me and started punching me pretty hard, I tried to attack back but I couldn’t. He was way stronger than me. I was quick to bite him to free myself from his grip. It hurt him big time. So he smacked the vase on my head and ran away. I became unconscious and fell on the couch” he said.

“I’m so sorry George. Who could it be? Didn’t he say who he is or what he want?” Erica asked.

“I don’t know but I’m sure it’s the culprit. He has attacked number of times and… I’m sure he would again. He already knows where I’m at. He can come at night” he was worried.

“I’ll make arrangements for you to move into the mansion. Both of you” Kelvin said. He knew that was something his brother would say.

“It’s not necessary master. If she can just close the case, everything will be back to normal” he said, staring at Erica.

“I don’t know. Calvin doesn’t want me to close the case. Right Calvin?” She asked and stared at Kelvin.

“I did?” He almost asked that loud. That was when he realized that he was acting as his brother.

“Oh yeah, yeah I am. I mean, I said that!” He said.

Erica sniffed in and touched her brother’s hair.
“Just come stay with us. You’ll be doing just fine” she said.

“Sure, I would” he said.

“Yeah, me too!” Ava said and smiled weirdly.

“I’m just glad you are okay. Everyone is okay” she said.

Kelvin smirked and peeped at his phone.
“Excuse me” he said and stepped out of the room.

He got outside the door and called his special investigator.
“Look into the case in my estate. Any news from the accident?”

“What accident?”

Kelvin turned and saw Erica standing behind him.
He swallowed hard, still staring at her.
“Fk!” He muttered silently.
