Chapter 218 - Martin Is Awake

Ch-218 

"So, guys come clean to me. My father called every one, right?" Eleanor asked as she settled herself in her seat. 

"He di…." *cough* before Mason could say something, Nathaira coughed. 

"He didn't," Mason covered. 

Mason and Nathaira cooled off after she apologized to him. They were now best buddies. Also, he was an enemy to Oliver for becoming close to his girlfriend. 

"He didn't. Eleanor. Why are you always suspicious like Cedric? It's just that we are all godmothers and godfathers of the first baby in our gang. Can't you give us the satisfaction of protecting our godchild!? How boring you are…. Aish," Nathaira said with a fake snort. 

"If I find that you all are lying, I will put some housefly shit in your food!" she threatened. 

"Wait… what?! Housefly shit!?! What kind of threat is that?!" Oliver asked in utter surprise. Even Mason looked at Eleanor with surprise. 

"God forgot to tighten a few screws in her head. So, she speaks nonsense when she quirky," Valene said as he didn't give a damn to her respect!

"Brother! You can't ruin my good name like that!?" Eleanor snapped at him. 

"You have a good name? Oh, My god! Sorry, I dont know that." he said with an 'apologetic' face. 

"BROTHER!!!! I will curse you that… that…. That…" Eleanor scratched her head not knowing what to curse him yet. 

"What?" Valene wiggled his brows at her. 

"Hmph! I will curse you that you won't get ice for your drinks!" she said with a cute huff. 

"I just pray to God that her child wouldn't be like Eleanor," Nathaira voiced out. 

"Even I do that!" everyone said one by one. Eleanor threw a hateful glare at them but it only made them laugh at them. 

"You all are bullying me! I will ask Cedric to teach you a lesson for me!" she said as she looked at them with narrowed eyes. 

She didn't even notice what she said. 

"Before you do that… you should get back with Cedric," unlike others Nathaira doesn't have a filter to her words. Eleanor realized what she said but Nathaira's words made her speechless.

There was a strange silence enveloped around them. 

"I am tired. I need to sleep," Eleanor said as she tried to escape the situation. 

"Myna, accompany her," Valene said. 

Eleanor helped Myna to reach the room on the flight. After tucking Eleanor in the bed, she returned.

Eleanor's mind was in a mess. She wanted to give Cedric a second chance, indeed. She will give but she needs some alone time. Many things happened, she needs some alone time. If she forgives Cedric right now, she was not sure if she ever gets an alone time again. She sighed. Before she could think more, she felt sleepy and fell asleep. Maybe due to pregnancy, she was sleeping a lot.

On the other side… 

Aiden sat outside nervously. His mind was a mess. His son… was struggling again. He wanted to call Eleanor but he didn't. He doesn't want to scare her. Again, she was flying, she cannot pick up his calls. 

[God, save my child.] he prayed. 

Thirty minutes passed. The doctors came out with a relieved expression. Seeing them coming out, Aiden walked towards them anxiously. 

"How is he?" Aiden asked. 

"Happy news, Mr. Zora. Your son is awake right now. But he is still under observation. We don't know if he has any loss of memory or something like that. If you want, you can meet him," the doctor said. 

"Thank you," Aiden said with a sigh of relief. 

Aiden rushed inside and saw Martin was sitting on his bed. "Son," he called out. 

"Dad, how are you?" Martin asked with a weak smile. 

"I am fine," Aiden said with tears in his eyes. 

"Sister left?"Martin asked. 

"How do you know?" Aiden asked feeling surprised. He looked at the doctor standing behind them. 

"I remember everything you and she said when I am asleep," he said. 

"How long I am asleep?" he asked ignoring their surprised expressions. 

"One year," they said. 

"How is the company?" he asked. 

"Eleanor did a great job in handling it. She even started her restaurant and resorts," Aiden said. 

"I know she is good," Martin said with a smile. 

"Indeed, she is," he said with a smile. 

"I am hungry, dad," Martin said. 

"I will go to the canteen and get some food!" Aiden said as he started to rush. 

"Dad," Martin called. 

"You want something specific to eat?" he asked. 

"I want aunt Jenna's food," he said. 

"Sure! I will call her and will ask her to cook something for you." Aiden said. 

Martin nodded and gave him a weak smile. 

"Dad, where are my phone and belongings?" he asked. 

"At home," Aiden answered. 

Martin looked at the doctor behind Aiden. 

"Doctor, am I fit to work?" Martin asked. 

"You are. All your body organs are healthy but your physical constitution is weak. For the next ten days, I suggest you not work," the doctor said. 

"Okay," he said. 

"Dad, I am tired. Go home and rest. Then come back with food. Don't inform Eleanor. Let her have peace for time being." he said. Aiden nodded.

On the other side… 

"Where are you going?" Katherine asked Cedric who was leaving with his luggage. 

"Chasing Eleanor," he said. 

Katherine just sighed. 

"Brother, when you do something try to think the same situation from the people who will suffer or be involved in it. If you have done that, this drama wouldn't have happened," Katherine said. 

Before Cedric could respond, Katherine turned her heels and left. Cedric stilled in his place for a few minutes before he came out of his trance. Suddenly, he realized his sister was grown up. 

Settling in his car, he went to his private airport. On his way, he messaged Oliver, Mason, and Valene to remind Eleanor's dream Christmas celebration. They agreed to fulfill it for Eleanor's sake. 

[I will change for you and our child, Eleanor..]  Cedric promised in his heart.
