Jameson's POV
"I heard what happened and I already assigned a friend of mine to privately investigate" Dad said after Stella left the room with Ren accompanying her.
Gale looks better now and Ron was just quiet as usual while listening to Dad.
"Dad... It's not safe for her to stay here" I said as he looked at me then placed his gaze towards my cousin. I can't tell what she's thinking right now because of her facial expression.
"What do you want to do Gale honey? I'm sure your parents knows about this by now" uncle asked. It took a few seconds before Gale answered back. "I understand my current situation. Someone wants to take over the throne and the only way to make that happen is to kill me since I'm the only heir to it" she said
Silence enveloped us and after a few minutes, we heard a phone ring
It was Gale's
"Hello Father... Yes father... Don't worry Father, I'm with uncle and Jameson... Wait father, how's everything there?... I understand father, do you wish to speak with Uncle?... Alright father... I will father" she placed her phone besides the table of her bed.
"How are they?" Uncle asked Gale. "They're fine... Father actually mentioned something..." she trailed off
"What is it?" I asked. She looked at me intently as she was about to open her mouth to speak when we heard a knock at the door.
Dad stood up to open it and we followed father with our gaze. We saw how dad suddenly stiffened even when his back was facing us.
"Clint..."
We heard him uttered something but we can't quite hear it clearly
Dad came back with a person behind him
It was Clint
I suddenly stood up from my seat. "What are you doing here?" I asked. He looked at me for a moment but then looked at Gale. I saw how he stared at my Cousin
"Look, if you don't have any business here, give us some privacy will you?" he didn't gave me a look and stormed out of the room as if he nothing happened.
I ruffled my hair out of frustration. "That guy... You should stay away from him Gale, he ain't good for you" paalala ko sa pinsan ko. "Don't worry cous, I don't have any business with him, so might as well focus on our problem" sagot naman nito sakin
I sat back down again and saw my father still standing near his seat. "Dad" I called out. He looked at me as if he escaped from his trance. "Are you alright?" I asked him
"Call me when you get back home, I have some business to attend to" Dad bid his goodbye and left us
I almost forgot that Ron was with us,he was actually sleeping on the sofa near the entrance door.
"Call the doctor cous, I'm fine now" utos sakin ni Gale kaya tumayo na agad ako upang tawagin yung doctor na pinadala ko dito sa clinic, personal doctor namin siya at ayaw Kong iba ang umasikaso sa pinsan ko.
