Chapter Sixty-Two

Prime Minister's POV

"Why did you ask me to visit you so late at night?" James asked as he entered my room.

"And you look so pale, what's wrong with you?" He asked.

"I wouldn't have asked you to come here this late if it wasn't urgent, I've been diagnosed with Pituitary gland adenoma" I said.

"What the hell is that?"

"I thought you were once a doctor?" I asked.

"I was but I didn't major in Neurology." He replied.

"Okay, let's just say it's something very deadly and can only be corrected by a surgery but it's a very difficult surgery and very few Neurosurgeon can carry out the surgery." I said.

"Then find out those surgeons and have them carry the surgery discreetly. Cause if the world finds out you have such a deadly disease, let's just say it won't be good for your political career." 

"I know James, why do you think I called you here in the middle of the night? Among those surgeons that can carry out the surgery, two are right here in London, your son Ryan and Alexander Sanchez" I said and he paused a bit.

"You and I know it's got to be Ryan right?" James said.

"There's more chance of success with Alex than with Ryan, you and I know Alex is more skilled than Ryan." 

"No William, there's is more chance of failure with Alex than Ryan, this isn't about skills. Alex will never agree to operate on you. And if he ever agrees, then you definitely won't survive the surgery cause he will kill you. I thought you were smart you should've known this. You killed that guy's parents there's no way he'll save your life." James said.

"I didn't kill his parents, you did" I said.

"What?"

"You pulled the trigger not me" I said.

"But it was on your order!" James yelled. "The only reason I agreed to be your shoot guy is because you promised me a position in your administration. So if the reason you called me here is for you to remind me of my past deeds then I am leaving and nemesis ever catch up with you, I won't be standing by your side, it's every man for himself!" He said and began to walk out.

"James wait, I'm sorry" I said and he stopped. "I was just... My head is messed up and I ain't thinking well right now." 

"That's not an excuse for you to ditch all your bad deeds on me!" He said as he walked back

"I'm sorry and you are right, Alex will never operate on me, can you arrange meeting for me and Ryan tomorrow?" I asked.

"Here?" He asked.

"Yeah, it's not like I am in the condition to go anywhere now." I said and he nodded.

"Sure, I'll bring him here tomorrow." 

Jasmine's POV

"Jasmine" someone tapped me from behind and I woke up.

"It's morning already, didn't you go home last night?" Tony asked.

"No, Alex is still not awake" I said.

"I'm sure he'll be awake soon" Tony said.

"Who are they?" I asked as I noticed two people, a man and a woman, standing behind Tony.

"This is Mason and his wife, they are like umm... A parent to Alex." Tony said.

"We came to check up on him." Mason said.

"Welcome, you guys should sit." I said and I suddenly saw Emma pass by. "Umm.... excuse me."

I said and I ran after Emma.

"Emma!" I called and she stopped and turned back.

"What's it?" She asked.

"What's it?" I asked surprised. "Alex is unconscious in that room and you don't seem to care."

"He's already receiving treatment so is there any problem?" She asked and I scoffed.

"You know I used to think you care alot about Alex, I mean whenever he's in trouble, you always try to do whatever you can to save him but now you don't even seem concerned."

"He doesn't deserve my concern, not after spoiling plans and unless a miracle happens, he's absolutely useless to me now." She said and I kept quiet for a bit.

"There's something going on between you two right?"

"You know nothing and trust me, you'll want to keep that way if you want to remain safe." She said as she began to walk away.

"I do know that Alex's parents were murdered" I said and she stopped on her tracks and then walked back to me.

"Did Alex tell you? How much do you know?" She asked.

"Everything Emma, everything" I said.

"I guess Alex was foolish enough to tell you all his secrets, I am beginning to think he can't keep his mouth shut. I thought he learnt his lesson when his medical records was released to the world by William Sanders but I guess not. So now that you know everything, try not to go blabbering around. Cause if William Sanders finds out about what you know, he'll kill you just like he killed both Alex's parents and my parents." Emma said and my jaw dropped.

"William Sanders as in the Prime Minister? So he's responsible for all this? He's the one that revealed to the world that Alex has hand tremors? Why? I mean I thought he was a good man."

"What are you saying? I thought you already knew everything" Emma said.

"I tricked you, Alex never told me anything so I wanted you to tell me yourself" I said and she grabbed my arm.

"You fool, how dare you trick me? You and Alex are just the same, a bunch of emotional fools." She said and walked away.
