When everyone got busy with chatting and eating, Jia sat beside Jim and watched the running movie through a cable network inside their suite.
It was about a woman who worked overseas in order to provide their growing children's need. Life was difficult, aside from the fact that she had to be away from the kids. She sent all her income to his husband, hoping that when she would finally come home, the business that her husband pretended to have ventured with, would now be more than enough to sustain them. Only to find in the end, that his husband left her children and eloped with his bestfriend, taking all her fortune away.
Jia held on to Jim's arm. "Can you imagine that, dear? If I would be in her place..."
"What will you do? " Jim asked, amused at how she got hooked with the movie.
"I will pretend to be unaffected. I will take my children with me. Then he would know how much he lost! " Jia said seriously.
Anthon and the rest kept on glancing at them while listening to their conversation, as well.
Then, the setting changed into a place where the woman saw them somewhere, being intimate with each other. She saw her bestfriend and thought about her betrayal. She thought about her husband on their courtship period and his sweet promises. And while standing there, watching them getting more intimate with each other, poignant scenes of the past played on her mind... Until anger and pain gripped her that she fell into the ground, crying her heart out!
Jia's chest tightened as she got carried away emotionally, blending her own suppresed pain into the momentum... until she couldn't hold it anymore. Her thoughts ran through Anthon's announcement that they would be getting married soon. Her thoughts ran through that moment when they finally closed the bittersweet chapters of their love story.
She began sniffling as tears raced down her face one after another. But when the surge of emotion became too overwhelming as the female lead wailed loudly and bitterly, she hurriedly burried her face into Jim's chest and broke into a loud sob.
"Sweetheart, that is just a
movie." Jim laughed while he rubbed her back to comfort her.
The more Jim comforted her, the more she got helpless, until Jim got carried on and cried with her.
Anthon suddenly stood up angrily and slammed the set off.
"My goodness, Jia! Why do you get fooled with those nonsense movies."
"Anthooon, it's not yet finished! Turn it back on! " Jia yelled, disappointed on having missed the next plot.
"You're such a silly woman! " He grumbled, glaring at her.
"Turn it on! " She said while gritting her teeth.
In the end, he turned it back on but he came over and twisted her earlobe.
Everyone laughed.
But Mr. Wayne couldn't be deceived.
A single word was written all over Anthon's face despite his glare and anger. And it was LOVE!
__
A nurse came in to administer Jim's intravenous medication. It was then that Jia remembered to check Jim' s bottle of Hailey's Pill. She stood up and counted the remaining tablets. It's already less than ten!
Anthon came forward with a worried look. He called up Aijohn right then.
"Raise it to one million per bottle! "
Aijohn couldn't believe his ears.
"We've raised it to a half million already and multiplying it twice, would already be too high. "
"Life is priceless, Dr. Aijohn, and I am more than willing to spend my whole fortune for it. "
Mr. Wayne walked towards him.
"Ton, what are you talking about? "
Mr. Wayne wondered. 1M per bottle? What bottle was that?
Anthon choked. His dad did not know about it? He ran his gaze to everyone and they all looked nervous. It was Jim' s request to them to keep it away from him because he was afraid that he might give his own allocations of the products to give way for him. He knew the consequence. And he did not want the two of them to suffer.
At the height of the tension when Mr. Wayne already got upset, Jim interrupted.
"Dad, it's my allocation of Hailey's Pill. When I confessed this illness, we were already out of stock. You know the consequences if it is stopped prior to the completion of the therapy. That is why we are publicly announcing it to buy it back
from entrepreneurs. As of now, we are raising it to half million. "
Mr. Wayne instantly broke into tears. "Why didn't you tell me? You should have not gone as far as that. "
"So as not to make you worry, dad. "
Jim explained.
"I'll give all my allocations to you. "
Mr. Wayne said as he touched the head of his son.
"No, dad. It wouldn't still be enough for my needs. "
"It's okay, son. Who knows if someone in the next coming days will offer his products to us? "
"No, what if there's none? " Jim argued.
"Son, listen to me. I am already towards the sunset of my life while you are still in your prime years. You have your wife and children. They are still very young. "
"Whatever your reasons are dad, I will not accept it. "
"Jim, please, for your family, for us..you need to live! " Mr. Wayne broke into tears once more, crushing the heart of everyone around.
When he calmed down, he called up Anthon and gestured for him to come out with him.
He ran his eyes towards everyone who were as anxious as him, before he followed him outside.
"What is it dad? " Anthon nervously asked.
Mr. Wayne placed a hand around his shoulders.
"Are you sure with your decision to marry Anna? " He asked, looking intently into his eyes.
Anthon got dumbfounded that he became out of words.
"Son, don't make her a second Laura. "
Having gathered back to his senses, he answered.
"I must do this, dad. If only Jim is not my brother, I will not give up. I don't want him to get hurt in thinking that his illness will give way for the fulfillment of my love for Jia. "
