Chapter 22
I woke up in the morning feeling very happy and glad that my dads health issue is being sorted out, all thanks to doctor Albert.
I felt I should call him and thank him again for his efforts in making sure my dad will be fine, I took my mobile cell phone and dialed his number.
"Hello, sorry to bother you this early morning, I just wanted to say a big thank you to all that you have been doing for my dad and for making sure that is well again" I told him as soon as he answered his call.
"Well,you do not have to thank, me, I am just doing my job and I am ready to do more just to put a smile on your face, I want you to be happy that is all" he responded in his usual calm way.
"Thank you" I said to him and dropped the call.
In my heart I feel that doctor Albert is not a bad person,and it would not be wrong If I considered giving him a chance in my life.
I could not contain my excitement, I feel everything will be alright someday. I didnt get through to my uncle yesterday to inform him that my dad has been moved out of hospital to a specialist clinic to handle his case.
I decided to give him a call informing him of the latest development.
"Hey Uncle, good morning to you" I greeted him as he answered his call.
"Erica,how are you doing?" He asked me.
"I am doing great." I responded.
"So how is your dad doing?" he asked.
"Uncle that is the reason I just called you, I have moved dad out of the hospital, he is now in a specialist clinic." I told him.
"You did what, you mean you moved your dad out from that hospital without informing me. How could you have done such a thing." My uncle yelled at me in anger.
"Well, uncle I took them to be specially cared for, is that not what we have always wanted?" I asked him.
"At least you should have informed first" He Said.
"It was impromptu," I told him.
"And whos idea was this?" he asked me.
"Well, doctor Albert gave me the suggestion, and I thought it wise, at least it will help dad to get better help and recover quickly" I said to him and he dropped the call.
As I dropped the call with my uncle, I was worried about why my uncle does want my dad to go to the specialist clinic. I was expecting him to applaud my decision for taking a step further into looking for a better and lasting solution to my dads health. Perhaps he thought they would not be able to take care of my dad properly.
I became confused at the same time, I just hoped I had not made a wrong decision. I decided I will be informing him of anything I would want to do in subsequent time, so as to seek his own opinion, but something tells me deep in my heart that I was on the right track.. Probably my uncle was not happy because I mentioned doctor Albert but then, ever since I met doctor Albert, all he ever did was to look out for me and make sure I was happy. He was the person that made contacts with the specialist clinic where my dad was taken into.. Even though I lost my parents he practically made sure I did not feel lonely ever since he came into the picture.
ANTHONIOS POV
Hearing that Erica had taken my brother Tyler out of that hospital did not go down well with me, I was not happy with that news, how could she have taken him to a different clinic without informing me first.
Had she informed me of her decision, I would not have allowed her to take him to any specialist clinic because I would not want him to get any better. I want him to remain in his deplorable condition.
I want to have all he has ever worked for, and now Erica is trying everything in her power to get him to his feet again and I will not allow that to happen. I thought to myself.
Taking everything away from Erica is a huge task and I know that it will not really be easy but I am now more determined to achieve that plan..
I needed to get closer to Erica so that I can always know her next moves. I need to be aware of her every move so that I can be able to stop her on time, of age, and try to make a plan or decision that will shatter my very own plans.
I sat down for some moments filled with deep thoughts, I do not want anyone or anything to ruin the plans I have coordinated for years now.
I need to stop Erica from seeing that so-called doctor Albert. I need to go and warn him to stay away from Erica, even if his intentions for her might be genuine but I would not want to take chances.
I contemplated on the means I could get doctor Albert to stay away from Erica but none of the ways seemed the better way, I thought of sending hit men to deal with him, but then I decided against it..
I went to my bar by the corner of my living room to get a drink. The bar in my sitting room happens to be one of my favorite places in my small apartment. Soon I would be leaving this small apartment to take over Tyler Woods mansion, my brothers house. I sat down, I search for a brand of drink, as I it will help pull some reasonable thoughts in to my head because that is all that I needed right now, I searched through the bar and found one of my favorite drinks Baron De Ville, it is a special brandy made of the finest ingredients, I got it from a store the last time I traveled to the States. Ever since then I hardly drank it.
I took the drink and looked for a glass cup to have some shorts so that I could think straight. As though it was magic or something similar. Ideas on what I will do being to pop into my head, I had the ideas that were ideal and the ones that I was skeptical if it can be achieved or not
I did not want to soil my hand with blood,but I needed to do something to stop doctor Albert. If the ideas in my head, I think the best of it, was the fact that I should just go to his office and give him a stern warning to stay away from Erica, at least giving him a serious warning will put a lot of fear into him and make him scared of coming closer to Erica, or perhaps I should just tell him a lie against Erica that could make him change his mind instantly and stay far away from her.
I checked in my phone to see if I have doctor Alberts cell phone number, I checked through my phone but I could not find doctor Alberts cell phone number anywhere. I thought of calling the office line,but it will not be a good idea to do that. I was about to call Erica to send doctor Alberts cell phone number to me then I changed my mind. I think I will just go to his office and warn him directly, face to face .It will be a lot better and for him to feel the seriousness in my voice and face.
He might not take me seriously if I call him on the phone, I thought.
I quickly gulped my drink dowñ my throat , took my car keys and set out to do what was in my head and mind. At this point I was ready to do away with anything or anyone that stands in my way of getting what I want.
I took my hat and wore it, I took the dark sun shade eyeglasses on the table of my living room and went outside. Getting outside I met my staff washing the Toyota car, I could not wait for him to finish the washing so I decided to go with the old SUV .
On my way to the doctor Alberts office I had a lot of thoughts going in my mind as I drove through the busy road. The traffic is not helping matters as some impatient drivers like myself almost ran into me.
I was driving with impatience and rage, the traffic was giving me lots of delay and I could not take it, I got two strikes from the traffic wardens.
I know on the third strike they might not spare me so I had to slow down a bit.
