Father, I am Dying.
At the Sevenoaks Branch
Dr. Kadon Quain had observed that Mr. Louis Bailey had not spoken about Olivia and that gave him concern. Then, he began to doubt the anesthetic injection that he administered on him on the day of the supposed memory erasing surgery. To his perturbation, he became withdrawn and emaciated. Currently, the doctor was anxious. Although they meet regularly, but he could see someone with bottled up emotions which might lead to acute stress in later life. That day, he paid him a visit in his office and noticed that he had two secretaries – Mr. Erick and Miss Cassandra Owen.
“A good day to you, Dr. Quain.”
Mr. Louis Bailey greeted with a forced smile when he stood up to give the doctor a handshake.
“Good day to you too, Mr. Bailey.”
“You are welcome to my office. Please take your seat.”
“Thank you. I can see you are busy.”
“Yes. We discovered oil in one of our properties, and I am busy with the registration.”
“Oh! That is good. Is that why you have two secretaries?”
He pushed out his lower lip and tilted his head to the left as he explained.
“The Chairman believed that Miss Cassandra Owen is still my secretary and often called her when he could not get me.”
“I see. So, you move her back as your secretary.”
“No. She is no longer my secretary, but I moved her office here in case the Chairman calls.”
“That is good. I only checked on you.”
Dr. Kadon Quain announced as he attempted to rise from his seat, and Mr. Louis Bailey did the same.
“It is all right, doctor. I appreciate.”
He walked the doctor out of the office without looking at his staff members.
'If only he would just sit in his office and stop walking around.’
Miss Cassandra Owen, who had been battling heard to keep her emotions under check, thought when he saw him and the doctor.
“All right, Erick and Cassandra. Have a fantastic day, doctor.”
They responded in unison. Afterwards, Mr. Louis Bailey walked back to his office, oblivious of the fact that his presence mesmerized Cassandra Owen's emotions. He took his seat and tried to continue from where he stopped, but could not. He rested his head on the office chair and allowed his tears to flow freely after a few minutes, he calmed himself, picked his stuff and left without a word for Erick and Cassandra.
At the Bailey International Conglomerates.
It was because the Chairman did not wish that Louis should be alone for any reason that was why he bought a ticket for her during the Daniel De Pianist Concert. He was aware that he could attend the event without a driver. So, to be a safer side, he planned his trip to include his secretary. After the event, he asked her to move her desk to his office because he had no explanation to give to his father concerning her transfer. Besides, he may think that the transfer just took place. Therefore, to avoid much stress for himself, he asked her to work from his office.
Now, Mr. Arthur Bailey noticed that Louis had not commented on the post of the award ceremony of Denise, and set out to give him a call. To his disenchantment, he did not pick his call. He waited for a few minutes before he gave him another call, but he got the same result. Now, he looked sternly in the space in exasperation as many negative thoughts adumbrated his mind.
“Where did he keep his phone?”
He muttered. Although, he was aware that he could always get through to him through Miss Cassandra Owen, but he was conscious of that. He would not want to present his son as one who would not pick his call whenever he wished to, so, he decided to give him some time, and he focused on his job.
At the Government Hospital.
After the video of Lorene Walker and Mrs. Zoey Bailey went viral, the Kent Hospitals Management Board summoned Dr. Marcus Caesar for a briefing. When he got to the Board's Headquarters, he met an aggrieved Board Chairman, Dr. Fidelis Abba and the Board Members who believed that he should not have allowed the video to be made public. He kept mute and allowed them to berate him to their satisfaction, then, he set out to defend himself.
“With due respect, Chairman, I don't know how the woman got the video because I am aware that the nurse does not have a camera in her office.”
With his lodgment, the Chairman of the Board and his members were perplexed.
“What do you mean, Dr. Caesar? If she does not have a camera in her office, how did she get the video of the fight in her office?”
Dr. Fidelis Abba, who believed that he was not being honest, asked.
“From what I gathered, Chairman, the video was posted and promoted on the internet by her children, who I presumed have their means of keeping watch over their mother. Besides, the children are not in the medical fields for that, I don't think we can hold them accountable for making the video go viral.”
After heated arguments among the members, Dr. Marcus Caesar was freed from all allegations and the Board focused on the issue of security in the workplace. After much deliberation, they came to a consensus that such a security gadget should be set up at all the hospitals in Kent. Meanwhile, Dr. Fidelis Abba had a problem with that. He wanted an alumnus from his Alumni Association to handle the project, but the house was divided. Some members wished that the particular device that Mrs. Nichole Bailey's children used in keeping track of her should be installed at the hospitals. At the end of the day, the Chairman had more votes than those who wished to have Mrs. Nichole Bailey's kind of camera. After the meeting, he contacted Mr. Arthur Bailey requesting for a proposal.
