"Actually, the company uses the founder’s last name."
Instantly, Isaac’s eyes widened before he could ask, "D, does that mean Donovan?"
Bella slightly nods before explaining, "The R is from Harper Reed’s last name, the F is from Jack Foster’s last name, and yes, that’s right, Grandpa... the D is from my last name, Donovan."
’Do-Donovan...’ Isaac Donovan felt a massive wave of emotions rise within him, making his blood rush and his heart beat even faster. He was so shocked to know the top company, RDF Group, bears his name.
Isaac narrowed his eyes, looking at Bella, while he raised his hand and made a sign gesture.
Before long, Nick appeared at his side. "Master, do you need..." Nick paused when he saw Isaac’s face turn pale. "Wh-What happens, sir? Why does your face look so—"
"Ni-Nick... Hurry... Hurry... take my heart medicine..." Isaac said while stroking his chest. "This little girl just gave me a heart attack..."
Nick no longer said anything but marched toward the house.
Bella panics when she sees her Grandpa seeming in pain. "Gr-Grandpa, are you alright?" she says while holding his hand. She is frightened, looking at how pale her Grandpa’s face is now.
"No... No... I’m not alright. And you! You have to tell me everything later about your company..."
Bella, "...."
"Let’s go to the hospital, Grandpa. Let me drive for you." Bella’s voice trembled.
"No need! I only need my med, and everything is fine."
"Grandpa, I overheard you ask Nick for your heart attack medication. This is serious, and we can’t take any risks with your health," Bella said.
When she saw him not saying anything but keeping his gaze fixed on her, Bella felt even more worried. She took her cell phone out of her pocket.
"I will call the ambulance…"
Before she could dial a number, Nick arrived with his two hands holding something–a glass of water and med.
"Master, this is your med…" Nick offers it with worry. However, Isaac didn’t take it. His eyes also don’t look at Nick; instead, he looks toward the lake.
Bella was confused about why her Grandfather looked so relaxed; he ignored Nick, who brought him medicine. When she saw him smile, she became even more confused. Just before she wanted to speak, her Grandfather stood up from his seat.
"My dearest boy! Are you done with exercising your martial arts?" Isaac’s voice sounded cheerful while approaching Dax, who had just finished his exercise. He took Dax’s hand and walked toward the house. "How about if we eat now? You must be starving, huh?"
"Grandpa, I drenched in sweat. Would you mind if I shower first before breakfast?" Dax politely asked with a smile as he turned to his mother, who was still sitting on the bench. "Mom, are you okay? I can tell you looked…shocked," he asked, confused at her blank expression.
Not only did Bella have that expression, but Nick did, too. He was rendered speechless, looking at his master, who looked healthy. Earlier, he panicked when he heard him asking for his heart medicine. But now? He looked terrific. Is he really that fine?
Bella snapped out of hearing Dax’s words. She smiled at him before responding calmly, "I’m fine, Baby…" Still, inwardly, she was venting her frustration toward her Grandfather.
’Gosh! How could Grandpa pretend to have a heart attack just like that? And make me frightened!?’
