I’m Dedicated To You

BRADLEY’S POV

The sound of machine beeping could be heard and the smell of antiseptic filled the room which somehow made me feel nauseated.

I looked at my wife’s lifeless body on the hospital’s bed and I felt my body drained of any emotions. I was exhausted.

After rescuing Georgina’s from the sicko a week later she has not shown any reaction to treatment and she has been in comatose state ever since the day returned from the ship.

The doctor says she must have fallen into shock after experiencing that horrible experience and she was just trying to heal herself.

“Don’t you think you should rest a little?” I heard Frederick ask me while he stood at the ward’s entrance and I sighed.

“How can I rest? So I can lose her again, no, not a chance,” I said deadpanned, shaking my head and I heard Frederick sighed.

“So you think anyone could penetrate the heavy security you placed around the hospital and actually come after Georgina and don’t forget that the crazy psycho that caused this has been placed behind bars so I don’t think you should bother about it and go have some rest, you look horrible,” Frederick commented.

“I am the only family this girl has Frederick, did you think it would be going ideal that she later opened her eyes and then I am not here,” I say and my argument already shows Frederick that I was not going to leave and he just nodded his head seeing that I am not going to take a step away from her.

“I would be waiting outside and Bernard is still alive waiting for your punishment,” Frederick says and my blood boils hearing the man’s name. He has surely caused a lot of damage and he was the one with no forgiveness.

“Do whatever you want with him but make sure you keep him alive for me,” I say and Frederick nodded his head and he walked out.

I kept looking at Georgina’s pale face and I decided to run my hands around her face but Frederick burst back into the ward and his face looked flustered and worried.

“Bradley, I think you would need to go to the company now,” Frederick said panicky and I looked at me confused. “What did you mean? I asked and he sighed heavily and his expression looked grave.

“Jayden……He called for an emergency board meeting to discuss your resignation as the CEO,” Frederick says and my face changed immediately and I knew at that time if I still wanted to keep my hold on the company I should really go.

I looked at Georgina on the sick bed and I was reluctant but I knew it was going to be best to leave.

“Please call Victoria,” I say and I rushed out of the ward and I knew something was sure I’m going to crush Jayden myself.

JAYDEN’S POV

I looked around the spacious boardroom and I knew it was going to be hard trying to win the board members over but he and Daniel had thought it through and most importantly most of the investors were already on their site so they just needed to prove their point about Bradley’s displacement and get their votes.

“Erm erm,” one of the oldest board members cleared his voice and I knew he was trying to tell me that I should say the reason they were called in for an emergency board meeting.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Good day everyone,” I greeted and I noticed some of them were disinterested in what I was going to say and I looked towards my dad but he just gave me a go ahead.

“I am here so we can discuss Bradley’s resignation as the CEO,” I say and that causes murmurs between the board members.

“Here it’s just as you heard we are here to talk about dismissing Bradley from being CEO,” my father says and some of the board members looked displeased.

“Why are we discussing that now?” One of the board members asked and I felt pressured. “Yes that’s what I am….,” I was saying but the board room door opened immediately revealing Bradley’s tired face.

“So, what is this meeting all about? A board meeting without the CEO,” Bradley thundered looking at the board members and the people cowered in fear and my face burned in anger.

“So, what’s the theme of the meeting, Jayden?” Bradley asked and I clenched my teeth in anger.

VICTORIA’S POV

I shook my head as I heard Olivia’s silent cries and I wondered what was wrong with her. Why is she making it so obvious that she was sad?

I am also sad but I know that my cries would not wake Georgina up. We just have to be hopeful that she thinks about us and wakes up soon.

“Did you think she is ever going to wake up?” Olivia asked and I nodded my head trying to be hopeful.

“What did you mean? Let us in right away!” Me and Olivia heard a ruckus outside the ward and we quickly rushed wondering what happened but the person we saw surprised us.

“What is happening?” I asked, looking at the strange woman but she was smuggish and she quickly pulled the other woman forward.

“Hello, can I please see Georgina,” the older woman who should be in her late forties or early fifties says but what stunned me was the striking resemblance between Georgina and the woman.

“Yes,” I answered in a daze and the woman smiled at me gratefully.

I and Olivia looked at the woman that had walked towards Georgina’s bed and I tried to shake up the lingering assumptions that were starting to set in just by looking at the woman’s resemblance to Georgina.

It could not be what I am thinking right? I thought but the truth was glaring and even if I do not want to accept it it was already there to see.

If the woman was not Georgina’s mother which I doubted she was going to be a relative.

I let the woman gush over the unconscious Georgina before I finally asked the question that has been lingering in my mind.

“Who are you ma’am?” I asked in a meek voice and the woman turned towards me with her eyevtbrinnug with tears and they were glistening just like Georgina’s eyes.

“I’m…. I’m Georgina’s Aunt,” the woman said and I opened my mouth in shock.

Aunt? Not mother?

“Georgina has an Aunt?” Olivia whispered and I nodded my head in daze.
