Can You Mend My Broken Heart?

Chapter 462: That Will

462 That Will

"Nothing seems alright to me."

"Why what happened? What did you see in there?"

"My dad's will."

Dr. Nelson took a deep breath as he heard Raymond speak. Neither he knew his dad well nor he was aware of what he owned. But he was pretty sure of one thing that he was one hell of a rich guy, whose sole aim was to screw up with the life of his son. So getting all concerned he asked.

"What's written in there?"

"Half of his will goes to a trust which is going to support people who are battling depression in their lives. The 'Life goes on' foundation."

"Oh, I know about that. We refer people battling with depression and who have suicidal tendencies to this organization."

"My mom battled depression and took her own life."

Saying that Raymond halted.

Dr. Nelson heard his words but was unable to make any connection. For him, the dots were still scattered. He wanted to be more understandable for Raymond, but right now he was out of his wits. He could clearly hear a hint of pain and remorse in his tone but he couldn't figure out what was triggering it. So finally after a few seconds of silence, he asked,

"Why do you feel wronged about this part of the will?"

"It's because I always thought that my father was the reason my mom had to kill herself. I could never see a hint of regret in the eyes of that man. He used to slander his wealth and enjoy the company of other women soon after my mom passed away. If he had no regrets then, why he has done all this now?"

"Calm down Raymond. Calm down. Forget this will. Search for what you need to find. You need that missing fragment of memory."

"There is nothing in this drawer except for this will and my family photo album."

Dr. Nelson thought for a while and then said,

"Get that photo album. No, wait... He will know about it if he finds it missing. Take pictures of all the photos with your phone. Then we can check them and reflect on it."

"Ok. Then I will call you later."

"Raymond wait. Where does the rest of his will go? I mean apart from the trust?"

"The rest has been split into three equal parts. One part to me, one to my uncle Conrad and the last part to some person Mike."

Saying that Raymond halted.

"No way."

"What happened? Who is this Mike?"

Dr. Nelson asked.

"It's Mike Peyton."

"Who is this Mike Payton now?" Dr. Nelson asked. His voice sounded almost irritated as every single word that was coming out of Raymond's mouth sounded encrypted to him.

"Mike is Akira's bother. As in Akira Peyton."

"That's not possible !!! This man would trade anything to kill Akira. Why would he will his assets to her brother then?"

Raymond thought for a while and then said,

"Well I am not sure about that, but you better start taking pictures and come back as soon as possible. It's high time to end all this high voltage drama. Let's get back to normal life for once and for all."

"So you mean to say you are already fed up with us?"

Raymond said and chuckled.

"No jokes Mr. No jokes right now. But still, we need to figure out who this Mike Peyton is."

"Leave that to me and David. We will dig it up. Must be the illegitimate child of him with one of mistress. After all, there should be some outcome of his unruly nights."

Said Raymond while grinding his teeth under his own breath.

"Calm down Raymond. Take the pictures and come back as soon as possible."

"Yeah, I am doing that. Hope everything is ok with Akira."

"Well, not everything."

"What do you mean? What did Vikram do?"

"Hold on ... Hold on ... Not Vikram. I deliberately made her fall on the dance floor so that she didn't have to dance with Vikram. So in return, her ankle was twisted a bit. Just a bit, not much."

Saying that Dr. Nelson went all silent waiting for a reply from Raymond but even after a few seconds of silence, there was no reply from him.

"Well, now would be the time to say something Raymond. I am feeling so guilty about it. Do not pull me into that downward spiral of guilt any further."

"To be honest I have no answer for you right now. I thought doctor's aren't supposed to hurt people."

Saying that Raymond chuckled.

"Good God. For a moment I thought you were going to pounce on me through this phone."

"Just bear with us for this one night Dr. Nelson. Don't let the wolves come near my girl. I am coming back soon. Sebastian's clock is ticking. It's time for him to go behind the bars. He had enough of merrymaking. It's now my time to take revenge. In a few minutes, I will his company eat the dust. It will go all public. Let's see what he can do about that. And let's see how he can threaten to touch my girl, from the penitentiary."

"I hope so too. I gotta go now. Vikram's family doctor has come to check Akira's sprain."

"Make sure Vikram stays. He too needs to see as to what happens when you try to mess with me. Just give me 15 minutes and I will be there."

Saying that Raymond disconnected the call and shifted his attention to the family photo album.

He was partially dreading to open it because now that he was able to recognize his mother's face, he was afraid to back down the memory lane. He wasn't sure what all gates of pain that will open up.

So taking a bit of courage, he opened up the album.
