"Boss, what do we do about the man who is following Miss West?" Ronnie brought up the issue as soon as he started driving. It had been bugging him since the ti he had heard from Ivy. 'Why would soone follow her?' It was true that journalists had enemies especially if they were sincere and honest like Ivy. Moreover, it was not only Ivy that was being followed, even her colleagues had been kept an eye on by that man.
"Find out who it is and what his motive is in following her? I don't want to take risks, especially when it's Aria's sister in question." Noah ordered. This issue was very serious and he did not want to put Ivy's life in danger.
"Okay boss."
"Check the background of all the people around Ivy. I don't want anyone who is suspicious now that I am going to open a news agency."
"Boss, do you suspect anyone?"
"Not yet. But I want to be sure."
"Okay boss. I'll find out everything about them."
The car beca silent. Noah took out his tablet to analyze the new contract that he would be signing with his business partner, Liam Brooke. The last ti when he was in London to proceed with the eting, Liam had to cancel their lunch as his wife had gone into labor. It had been a few weeks now and Liam was going to give a visit to Country P to make up for his absence last ti.
"When is Liam coming here?"
"Boss, he will be coming next Friday."
"Okay."
At that mont, Noah's phone rang. It was the nurse who had been assigned to look after Oliver West. Fearing the worst, Noah picked up imdiately. 'Let him just be safe.' He prayed before he answered the call.
"Hello."
"Hello, sir." The nurse spoke cautiously. "I have so good news for you."
Noah's heart was drumming crazily fast. His hopes rose on hearing her words. "What is it?"
"Mr. Oliver has woken up. I tried calling Dr. Davis, but he did not pick up my call."
"What are you saying? Is it true?" Noah asked in disbelief.
"Yes, sir. Mr. Oliver has woken up."
"I am coming over right now," Noah said in a hush and cut the call.
"Ronnie, drive to Ian's company."
"What happened boss?"
"The nurse inford just now that Mr. West has gained consciousness." Noah was ecstatic with the news. This was the first ti after three years that Oliver had woke up. He had been in a coma for a long ti and finally, he had opened his eyes. However, Noah did not know how his physical and ntal condition was. But this news was a ray of hope for him. If he has gained consciousness, then they could cure him and make him normal.
"That's great, boss." Ronnie too was happy hearing the news. He had seen how devastated his boss had beco on learning that Aria was Oliver's daughter. Though Noah had a vast amount of wealth and resources, at that ti he was helpless. Nothing was able to cure Oliver and this was breaking him from within.
Oliver was being treated at Ian's company. He was being looked after by a nurse personally hired by Ian. They could have admitted him to the hospital, but it would beco too complicated and risky if anybody found out that he was alive, especially people who were after him or his family. So, Ian had been treating him in his company's exclusive ward. Nobody but he and the two male nurses knew about it and the nurses were trustworthy. So, he had nothing to worry about.
Ian's company had all types of equipnt required to treat a person. It was nothing less than a hospital. However, the last ti when Oliver's condition had worsened, Ian did not have the MRI machine and it was necessary to see what was the problem with him. So, they had taken him to the Royal dical Hospital which had a special entrance which only Ian had access to.
It did not take long for Noah and Ronnie to reach Ian's company, the Royal Pharmaceuticals. Noah had private access. So, the guard did not stop him.
Noah rushed to the exclusive ward on the top floor. It was a restricted area, nobody had access to it other than the three friends and the two male nurses. The nurse was waiting for him outside.
"What's the update?" Noah asked imdiately on seeing him.
"Sir, Mr. West gained consciousness a few hours ago. He is fine, there is no abnormal behavior or he did not get agitated. His vitals look fine. Right now, he is sleeping." The nurse relayed all that had happened after Oliver gained consciousness.
"That's- That's great." Noah did not know what to say. He was happy and his happiness knew no bounds. He was still unable to believe the turn of events. It would not be long before Aria finds out about her father. If only Ian was here to do a thorough check-up on him and give the complete report.
It was not a problem though. Ian was getting discharged the next day. He could ask him to check Aria's father later. He wanted to relay the good news to Aria, but it was not the correct ti yet. Ronnie smiled looking at his boss's elated face. There was relief, joy, excitent and anticipation flowing through his eyes.
Noah went to Aria's father and sat on the chair beside his bed. "Hello, Mr. West. I am Noah, your daughter Aria's boyfriend. Please get well soon. Your daughters are waiting for you."
Noah and Ronnie stayed with Oliver for a while. Before leaving, he did not forget to instruct the nurse to take good care of him. He then left for his ho.
After reaching ho, he couldn't stop himself and called Aria, who at that ti was rolling on her bed thinking about what had transpired on her bad. She could still feel his kisses on her body and it made her jittery and hot. Seeing that Noah was calling her, her heart went on an overdrive.
"Hey." She answered, her voice shy and coy which Noah failed to notice in his excitent.
"Hey, what were you doing?"
"I was about to sleep. You?"
"I just returned ho."
"Then, go to sleep. You must be tired." Aria said twirling her hair, with a huge smile on her face.
"You too. Take care and sleep well." Noah too had a smile on his face for entirely a different reason.
'Aria, prepare yourself. I have a surprise for you and I am sure you will love it.'
That night, the couple could not sleep properly, each for a reason of their own.
