THE TRUTH OF LOVE

TTOL - Chapter 03

Third Person POV

"Andrew" Elena called her husband when she saw him at the side of the venue and it looked like he had just finished talking on the cellphone.

"Honey, please don't be angry. That girl is probably just drunk. I didn't expect her to do that." Andrew explained quickly even though Elena hadn't said anything about what happened earlier.

"I don't care to what relationship you have with that girl. I'm not interested. The guests came to this event because of my father. I don't want to reach him no matter what happened earlier. Do you understand?" Elena said directly to her husband.

"If you want to embarrass yourself, don't embarrass my family." she added as she left.

The man watched his wife leave. Even if he doesn't love his wife, she is still important to him because this will be his way to get AZ Technology Inc.

When he saw that his wife already left , Andrew shook his head and took a deep breath.

"Just be thankful that I still need your help for my plan." he said to himself.

Irina POV

When I woke up the next day, I still remember the encounter of me and Dylan last night. Five years have passed but he still hasn't forgiven me.

I am not expecting that he will forgive me, but from what I saw last night, his anger towards me hasn't diminished even after many years have passed.

I put that out of my mind and got ready to go to my son at the hospital. I did not go to see him last night because my body and mind couldn't handle what happened at the event. I'll make it up to him today.

When I arrived at the hospital, I found him still asleep. I did not wake him up and slowly put the fruit I brought for him on the table.

But as I put the fruit on the table, I saw my naughty child's eyes blink.

I approached him slowly.

"Honey, are you awake?" I asked him even though I knew he was already awake.

He did not respond to my question but I saw him smile.

I kissed him on the cheek and saw his eyes blink again.

"Don't pretend to be asleep. I caught you already." I said to him kissing his cheek again.

"Mommy, why didn't you come to see me last night? Don't you love me anymore?" he said sullenly to me.

"Forgive me son. Mommy was just taking care of something. I'll make it up to you today. Is that okay with you?" I will console him

"Yes, mommy. I'm happy because you won't leave my side today." Dylon said happily.

I stood up to get him some water but his water container was already empty.

"Wait for a minute Dylon, I will just refill your water container." I told Dylon before leaving the room.

As I close the door, I saw Dr. Lincoln approaching me.

"Is he still asleep?" he asked pertaining to Dylon

"No, he just woke up." I answered him

"I checked him last night and his vital signs are stable. So, no need to worry."

With the condition of Dylon right now that news is something that I must be grateful about. His condition right now is serious, that is why he needs to under go for a surgery as soon as possible.

Ever since I gave birth to Dylon, Logan helped me take care of him. At first, he is only his attending doctor until I found he is also our neighbour. So, until then we became friends and then I considered him as my boy best friend. We knew each other for almost five years now.

"Heading to the water dispenser?" he asked me when he noticed that I am carrying Dylon's water container.

"Ahmm, yeah."

He walked with me to the water dispenser and we continue talking about Dylon's condition.

After getting the water I returned to Dylon's room while Dr. Lincoln left because he still has rounds to do.

I spent my day with Dylon. Sometime Logan joined us whenever he has finished during his rounds. We always enjoyed the little things we do as long as Dylon and I are together.

Though we only have each other, I always made it sure that he gets the love he deserves from me and the people around him. I want to give him the love and care that he can get from his father even though he is not around. I can be his father and mother at the same time.

The next day, I ask Dr. Lincoln to watch over Dylon for the reason that I need to go to the office to ask some updates and finish my task on the program we are making. Though Dylon needs me in the hospital, I still need to work for me to provide all his needs specially now.

"Good morning Ms. Irina." other staff greeted me as I enter the office.

"Good morning." I greeted back.

I went straight to my office and there I found my other best friend. The one who helped me that night. She is also Dylon's godmother.

"Good morning beautiful lady. How's my baby Dylon doing?"

She hasn't visited Dylon for a couple days because she is also busy with the project she is handling right now. And I know that Dylon understand it. It is also one of the reason why a lot of people loves Dylon because he is understanding, loving and smart kid. I am so blessed to have him as my son.

"He is stable at the moment. But Logan told me that we should not be complacent with his condition right now. That is why he needs to go for an operation as soon as possible." It is obvious to my voice how afraid I am for my son.

"If only I could help Dylon, I surely will. But how can his beautiful godmother can help, I am only a director of this company." she sadly said.

"You are being dramatic right now. You have help me and Dylon for the past five years until now. And we are grateful for that."

Aside from Logan, Coreen have help me also in taking care of Dylon. If it is not because of them, I think I have surrendered long time ago.

"I miss that kid so much. I will surely visit him these coming days." Dylon and I are so blessed to have such people around us.

"He misses you too so much. But for now, let's get back to work." I said to change the topic.

"So, is there any update about the project we are working on?"

We are currently making deals with one of the biggest gaming company in the country. They are planning to produce new games and their objective is to have a game that is for everyone. Not just for kids but for all. They have a lot of requests for that game but one thing is for sure, we can make all their requests possible. We need to make this deal close because this will make a big break for our company.

"I have already made an appointment with the new CEO of Quest Web Developers, Mr. Dylan Easton. He is young yet successful, quite impressive. I am so excited to finally meet him." When I heard the name, I immediately look at her. Did I hear right? Is she talking about that man last night ?

"What did you say? What is the name again?" I asked her hoping I heard it wrong.

"Dylan Easton, that is the name of the new CEO of Quest Web Developers. Why? Do you know him by any chance?

Oh God. What a coincidence. Why is this happening?
