chapter 2:Ethereal

"No sir you are the ultimate owner i am just a slave here"

"Yes that sounds nice to hear, but I think that your son has to say that while kow towing to me"

"What! you are joking, i can see that you have lost you sanity" said stephen

"Hehehe, mr Peter you really trained your son well."

"I'm sorry Mr Travis im really sorry for my son's stupidity and ignorance"

"Ok I wouldn't hold you responsible if you and him kowtow to me" Travis spoke

"Yes sir kowtowing is too small for a big shot like you" Peter exclaimed

"Dad what are you talking about? Are you out of your mind dad? I CAN'T DO THAT" Stephen was already fuming with rage and with his dad acting like a total lunatic he was turning red from anger.

"Damn it! son, can you stop being stupid for once In your life" Peter was turning red with anger.

Travis checked his watch which was made from pure gold and bit his lower lip watching the father and son couples act unfolding into something interesting, he raised his left eyebrow somewhat annoyed and spoke In a disdainful tone "when will you stop this nonsense"e"I'm sorry Mr Travis, I'm really sorry for annoying you" Peter said.

" you better be because I'm starting to think that you do not want to keep your job anymore" Travis Said with an aggressive tone.

" no no no sir it's not as you think " said Peter

" it better not be " Travis Said

"Now you have to fulfil your promise to me" Travis Said.

Peter slapped his head slightly in embarrassment "oh I almost forgot "

It was not as it seemed, really he just didn't want his son to do such an embarrassing thing which could ruin his reputation. Meanwhile, Travis just smirked knowing what Peter was thinking of,

He just didn't want to scare away the cat he just lurred out from his hiding having known that this same cat will soon come out anytime sooner.

"Ok then you can start now" Travis Said giving him no space to negotiate and giving him no face.

"Yes sir, yes sir " Peter replied on the surface he seemed as obedient as a little mice but on the inside he was as cunning as a little fox. Unfortunately, Travis was smart enough to sense the thoughts of the man and gave him a little hard time so that he could show his true colors in the public and especially on the media with everyone watching.

"Son what are you waiting for? Get on your knees now!!!" Peter said with hostility visible in his eyes.Yes he didn't want his son to make a scene here In front of the media and also didn't want to become a helpless beger on the street so he had to weigh the consequences.

After all he could contact some people who can help him to erase the videos from the Internet after all everyone thinks he is a big shot in pendalon city.

Even if he didn't didn't want to do it he had to compromise on the fact that he could loose every thing he has worked on for so many years.

With that he immediately slapped Stephen at least to please the young master in front of him. Infact Travis was not pleased at all but starred at Peter in disbelief thinking of how much this old man could be so cruel to his own blood on the media just because of money.

"How dare you! You old fool you have no sense of humanity can't you see that we are live and everyone is watching! Can't you just pretend on the big screen"

Immediately the two men realised that they had mispoken and held their mouth in shock.

Indeed in everyone's eyes the both men were a happy and rich family of two. who had a dead mother.

But they never mentioned their sister Stephanie.

"Mr Travis, hehehe, it doesn't have to result to something like this hehehe." Stephen said boldly

Travis furrowed his brow in frustration and said in a cold voice that sent chilled down ones spine " Hey I don't have a lot of patience with you. Just do this and I mind consider letting you off the hook "

He bragged saying " you know I'm a man of few words and more action" he smirked and his delicate god like features were outlined perfectly his perfect eyebrows which were tightly knited together down to his deep black obsdian like eyes which flowed down to a perfect nose down to an irrisistable cupid lip that was so charming and pinkish red dazzling white teeth and a perfectly sculpted jaw.

It was ethereal.

Stephen bent down in shame and disgrace and bit his lower lip clearly showing unwillingness but he still had to give face to this young man.

After a few minutes of humiliation Stephen stood up and walked towards the exit.

Travis went back to the top floor in the hospital where Eva's operation was being held. Normally the top floor was only for the members of the Alfie( Travis family) family but Eva was brought here to recieve private and special care.

He waited for over an hour before the red light came off from the operating room and then took Eva to the intensive care unit were only Travis was allowed to visit.

Two days later Eva was transferred to a private ward were Travis basically lived for one month until Eva woke up.

On the 21st of July Eva moved a finger subconsciously and Immediately this action was noticed by Travis he called doctor kelvin his personal doctor.

Kelvin is a man of twenty-five years who is a renowned doctor and celebrity known by everyone in pendalon city. He is a mixed race of Asia and Australia and is a very handsome guy. Not to forget his most visible characteristic, he is a well known play boy and Travis close friend he is a citizen of pendalon city by birth and he based there so he spoke English fluently.

He stormed into the room after receiving a call from Travis that was said to be urgent." Travis what is the meaning of this? It is two am in the morning and you start to disturb me when I am exercising my manly strength."

" kelvin, Eva moved her finger just now, what are the chances of her waking up soon ". Kelvin felt that this man had gone insane after the accident and there was no turning back for him,

He gad even knocked him out once and tried to test if he was really going nuts over this girl but the punishment that the recieved was enough to teach him not to meddle in other people's business. Travis made him to stay inside an abandoned secluded house although with food electricity and water supply, it was worse than death because he could not play with his girls and the was no source of Internet for a month.

He even began to wonder how him and Travis became close friends in the first place.

Kelvin snapped out of his thinking and was brought to reality by the angry face if Travis which made him realise that the had committed another offence." Um..I..I..yeah,yeah" kelvin said fearfully

" I asked you if you were an idiot" Travis said looking at him with ridicule and mockery.

" No, no, what I meant to say was no" kelvin quickly said defending himself.

"Whatever" Travis said and shrugged

" so when will she wake up" Travis added

"I think next week or next two weeks"

kelvin said in a serious tone resuming his professional behaviour.

Travis ran his hand through his hair in frustration " I mean the exact date you fool" he said

"Dude, I am not God who knows everything"

kelvin said shrugging his shoulder in a manner that shows that he didn't care about anything Travis was saying including the girl.

"KELVIN!!!! Can you be serious for once In your life!!!!" Travis roared

Kelvin had to use his trump card so he said in a very little voice barely audible "you will slow the patients recovery by disturbing her frequently" with that, Travis quite down a bit. Kelvin felt that his plan had worked and regained a little bit of confidence "if you want to contribute to the recovery of the patient you can come here often ans talk about good memories with her, don't forget to shower before coming next time because DAMN you stink so bad" kelvin didn't notice that Travis face has turn black as the under of a pot and continued blabbering nonsense " yeah I think you smelled like spoilt onions today, how do you think that your employees will respect an awfully smelling man, you look so unkept like you've never bathed for a long time, oh that's true you haven't bathed for some says now so I don't blame you, hahaha"

it was only kelvin that was laughing at his joke as he was slapping Travis hand lightly.

He looked at Travis and saw that his two eye brows has been tightly knited together and then he realised that he had mispoken a...
