Should I Be Scared Of Everyone
“What do you mean by send away, uncle? Is he not working for us anymore?” Brigitta asked.
“He doubled the money we paid him and sent it back to us, then he resigned and went back to his country, he also threatened that he won’t forgive what you did to him.” Beocca said. “Although I feel like that man is no ordinary man.”
“Oh my days!” Brigitta felt very bad, “so I can’t even see him and apologize to him?”
“Unless you go to Maridonna to do so which is impossible. But don’t worry, we’ll handle everything. You just focus on getting better, okay?” Beocca said.
“Did the doctor say when I’ll get better?”
“Actually, the doctor said the food you took contained too many toxins and that the DNA in your intestinal walls are being damaged and could trigger …”
“Trigger what uncle?”
“Nothing. Let’s be optimistic, I believe you will be fine in a week,” Beoocca answered.
“Will I die , uncle?”
“No. You will live. I assure you,” Beocca said to her but she was still worried.
When it was the following morning, at Wesson’s Cooperation, Beocca went to Ragnar Marshall’s office and sat at his gesture.
“Sir, you need to watch a video.” Beocca said and handed over the video to Ragnar Marshall.
As Ragnar Marshall stared at the screen of the phone, he watched Chester seat on Guthred’s lap and playing with his beards.
Ragnar Marshall handed over the phone back to Beocca, “send Guthred’s picture to our spies at Maridona and tell them to find out his identity. He must be a prominent figure there.”
“Got it, sir.” Beocca answered, “sir, do you remember that after Alex Roberto was imprisoned to the tomb, Chester began to live with the princes of Maridonna, perhaps, Guthred could be one of the fifteen princes of the emperor.”
“That’s just a guess, let’s confirm.” Ragnar Marshall said and Beocca nodded. Then he stood and walked out.
Prince? Could he be a prince? Ragnar Marshall thought. Guthred actually looked very noble in his observation plus no ordinary man can have such fighting skill has he does. It must have been someone who had undergone a lot of professional trainings.
Then Ottar walked in a few minutes later and handed over the DNA test result of the children to him, it was still sealed.
He unsealed it and read through, seeing that he was not related to the kids in any way, he tore the paper and said to Ottar, ‘they aren’t my kids.”
“Yet they had such resemblance with you, how strange,” Ottar said.
“Ottar, those kids aren’t mine. Enough!” He was already getting angry. First it was Ivan who was trying to act as if the kids are for him and now Ottar.
“I won’t make mention of it again, sir.” Then Ottar collected the torn DNA test result and walked away from him.
Whereas, Brigitta continued being in pain, despite the injections she received twice a day, the pain was not getting any better. And whenver she ask the doctor if the pain will ever go, she will be told the pain will leave soon. She felt like these people were hiding something from her.
So when Beocca eventually appeared at night, she asked, “uncle, you must tell me what the doctor said about me. Am I really going to die?”
“No, but it was said that your damaged DNA can trigger colon cancer.” Beocca quickly added. “But I’m sure it would not lead to that. I’m very sure of that.”
Colon Cancer? Her heart broke at the news, “uncle, tell me, did I already have it? Don’t lie to me. This pain is too much?”
“Even if you have it, I believe it can be cured.” He said.
“Please call the doctor over, I need to know my fate,” Brigitta said.
Beocca left and came back with the doctor, “doctor, did I already have cancer?” Brigitta asked quickly.
“We haven’t made such test as to conclude you have one. We believe that we will be able to manage this situation and you will be fine, “the doctor said.
“But the pain hasn’t subsided. It’s terrible. I couldn’t even sleep at night.” Brigitta complained.
“I absolutely understand but we are trying our best.” The doctor answered.
“Can it be treated? The colon cancer?”
“Yes, since it will still be in it’s first stage. But one thing about cancer is that it reoccurs. Most times when a cancer surgery is successful and the patient believes that they are fine, a couple of months down the line, the cancer may reoccur again in which case can lead to death.” The doctor explained the reality of the situation to her.
“I pray I don’t have colon cancer. I want to be fine and stay alive so I can take care of my kids,” Brigitta lamented, almost crying.
“You will be fine, ma.” The doctor said. In the absence of no other questions from Brigitta, the doctor walked away.
Brigitta buried her head in her palm and tried hard to stop tears from falling from her face, she suddenly took her palms from her face and looked at Beocca who was standing quietly beside her bed, “sir, have you found out how I was poisoned?”
“Yes.” Beocca answered.
“You were posioned by the female staff that served you and Grisah food. When the female staff was asked why she poisoned your food and not that of Grisah, she confessed that she was paid to do so by Grisah.”
“What? Grisah wanted to kill me?”
Beocca sighed and sat on a stool, “I think we need to address the fact that you need to stop trusting people easily.”
“Not like I trusted Grisah, he had helped me twice in the past and I agreed to go on a date with him, how can I possibly know that he intends killing me when infact, I have done nothing wrong to him.” Brigitta said. “Should I be scared of everyone now? Is everyone around me trying to kill me cause I’m so tired. I’m tired of everything, uncle.”Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
