One last time - Chapter 350

Shrugging his shoulders, Johnathan scoffed, “Isn’t it evident? Anyone can say she is pregnant but she is trying to hide it by wearing baggy clothes. I am sure that she is at least 34 weeks pregnant.” When Gorus gave him a blank look, he chuckled, “Come on, don’t tell me you people never noticed it. I could say it in one glance.”

“This—Are you sure?” Gorus widened his eyes in shock.

“I am a doctor dad, how could I make a mistake?”

…..

Rocky’s place

Passing Kevin a cup of coffee, Rocky sat right next to him. “Don’t worry, we will find her.”

Kevin sighed and nodded his head. “We will find Janet too.” When Rocky did not say anything, he added, “If Silvia is alive, that means Janet did not do anything to her. Women are clever, maybe they came up with a plan which we weren’t aware of.”

“After we heard the news about Silvia, I met Janet in the SPIRIT base and—I felt like she was hiding something, you know. The emotions in her eyes and her words did not match. Maybe she wanted to tell me something but I failed to pick and told her really inappropriate things. I have hurt her a lot, I—”

Cutting him off, Kevin comforted him. “Hey, stop blaming yourself. You had no idea what was going on and the situation at that time was very stressful. You did what any normal man would do. If I was in your place, I would have done the same thing. We will get through this together as a team, okay?”

Rocky sighed and nodded his head , “I never thought things would become this normal again, we still have many mysteries to solve but this still feels nice. Seeing you like this again makes me feel great Kev.”

“Guys, you have no idea what I just found out.” Without waiting for their reply, Matt said, “Gorus, the man who used to take care of SPIRIT before Janet took over, has a son.”

“And what does that have to do with anything we are trying to find out?” Rocky curiously inquired.

“Well, it wasn’t really a big thing only if his son wasn’t Doctor Johnathan.”

Scrunching his brows, Kevin got up. “What?”

“Wait, isn’t that the doctor from the hospital where Silvia and Janet used to work? The one that was after Silvia?” When Matt nodded his head, Rocky widened his eyes in shock. “Damn, I always had this feeling he was weird but—”

“Was he active in the organization?”

Matt nodded his head and explained, “He was the one involved in the accident that happened months ago in the hospital.”

“Which accident?”

“The fire, when Silvia was attacked and—”

Pursing his lips, Kevin squirted his eyes. How could he forget the unfortunate incident because of which they lost their born child even before finding out it’s existence. “Let’s talk to him.”

“Chris is already on the way to get him.”

Outskirts of the country.

Whales Villa.

“I heard you haven’t eaten anything yet.”

Wiping her tears away, Silvia placed the photograph on the table. “I am not that hungry.”

“You can’t neglect your health this way,” Elias sighed before sitting beside her.

“Did you give it to him?” When he nodded his head, she asked, “How is he?” Picking up the photograph from the table, she sighed, “Why am I even asking that? He obviously isn’t okay.”

Looking at the picture, he asked, “Who gave you that?”

“I wanted to see him so I asked someone to get it for me.” Gently c.a.r.e.s.sing the picture, she sobbed, “I have never seen him like this, I did this to him.”

“You did not do anything Silvia. Everything that has happened was necessary. We are so close to ending all of this once and for all. Just hold on a little longer, okay?” He tried to comfort her.

“Do you think I did the right thing?”

“I told you this before and I am telling you this again, it was either a few months of suffering or a lifetime of endless anxiety and pain.” Taking the picture from her hand, Elias added, “Do you have any idea how many lives you and Janet are going to save once we are done dealing with this shittiness?”

“I have worked for SPIRIT all my life and it isn’t pleasant. I have done things I can’t even tell you. There were times I tried to dodge it but there was a limit to what I could do. I wanted to leave but running away wasn’t my plan. I wanted to rescue every trapped soul from there so I kept waiting for the right opportunity,” he further explained.

“But what about Kevin? He is the most important person in my life and I am giving him such a hard time, do you think that is right? How is this fair?”

Just then Janet entered the room. “I heard someone hasn’t eaten.”

“Okay, I will leave you girls alone to have some girly chat.”

After Elias left, Janet sat beside Silvia. When she saw the picture in her hand, she sighed, “Damn, is that Kevin? He looks in very bad shape. Are you sure you are still in love with him after seeing this picture?”

Smacking her arm, Silvia chuckled, “Don’t say that, he still looks handsome.”

Giving her a side hug, Janet assured her, “Just wait a little longer, everything will be okay until little Austin decides to push himself out of you.”

C.a.r.e.s.sing her 35 weeks baby bump, Silvia sighed, “I hope so.”

“Come on, cheer up. We will get through this very soon and you can spend some quality and peaceful time with your husband.”

Placing her hand on Janet’s hand, she said, “Rocky needs to know this too.”

“He doesn’t want to see my face and it’s okay, I understand how he feels,” Janet sighed.

“That’s because we made them think that way but after everything is over, we can clear all the misunderstandings.”
