Chapter 41 - Commotion at the Loch

"Hey, send me anything you can find about Dr. Miles" Darryl instructed.

Darryl was still an infant when Dr. Miles retreated from the elite community. However, his incomparable charity works and the Feather Healthcare Corporation stood strong. Practically the reason why his name is still a very popular confab in every social gatherings. In addition, every child born in the upper echelon of the society grew up admiring the great doctor even though he was already inexistent.

The elite's common knowledge about the doctor is that he retreated from the society when his wife died but remained in touch with his few trusted friends. Señior Hans Montarini happened to be one of them. Another fact is that, the Diamond Montarini Prince is the youngest Montreal's best friend.

If the great doctor has maintained relationship with the Montarini's, could it be possible that both of the male heirs are close with the famous Doctor Miles?

Could it also be possible that Dr. Dugmoch whom he met exactly two weeks ago was the famous Dr. Miles? If true, then that explains why the two heirs never left the Richmond Ranch.

What about Xhemin? Is she really Dr. Miles grandchild? Dr. Miles had gone from the limelight long enough that elites do not anymore talk about his family. However, being his grandchild means she is an heir. Thus, she is as important as his two best friend, but why is it that it seemed that no one knew about her?

The great doctor's grandchild. The heir to Feather Healthcare Corporation. The best friend of two significant successors who were attendees of the famous Rivendell Academy. Why did the media never talk about her even once?

Is she legitimate or just an adopted? He was dying to know. However for now, he could do nothing but wait until the information he needed is at hand.

Darryl loosened his tie a little bit before he went back the room. He was already at the door when his phone beeped.

'Unread message from Xhemin Lae Dugmoch'

Ziggy laid on his bed with the pillow tucked under his arms. He was tired but he could not bring himself to close his eyes. He had already locked the door and even put a chair against it to make sure no one from the outside can forced it open. Ellie their butler said he would send Samuelle later tonight in his apartment as per Dr. Miles orders. The idea of having that bodyguard was scary, she might crash into his bedroom and harass him again.

He thought of many ways to sway Dr. Miles decision about accepting Samuelle. However, he did not want to anger Dr. Miles more, so he just brushed off the idea. Their situation is complicated right now; their granddad even banished the three of them from the ranch.

He is back at his apartment for the meantime. The local hospital where he is training is just right at the corner of the street, so Dr. Miles thought it would be wise for him to stay there.

He sat on his bed and reached out for his phone. He was about to give Huzey a ring when his phone rang suddenly playing Huzey's voice,"Prip-prippa-prip-prippa".

The three of them have the same ringtones, all to the language they created, but it was customized to their voices. If one of them calls, the ringtone would be the caller's voice reeling the language "Prip-prippa-prip-prippa".

"Hey Ziggy boy what's wrong?" Huzey called, splashes of water can he heard all over from his line.

"Huzey! I've called you a thousand times!" Ziggy started making his frustration obvious.

"I know. But I was busy underwater I didn't have the chance to check my phone" He answered and it was obvious from his voice that he was catching some breathe.

"You are out scuba diving again in the Loch?" He inquired.

"Yeah with the foreign teacher. He wanted to see my underwater site"

Ziggy did not doubted him, the sound of his voice and the background form the other line confirmed everything.

"So you brought him there?" He asked. Huzey brought Xhemin and him to that part of the Loch before and the site was amazing. Before that, they had to learn to scuba dive of course.

"I was about to but we had a little commotion down there" He explained, a little troubled.

Sensing his best friend's uneasiness, he asked immediately. "What do you mean? Is everything all right?"

"I think so. I mean were fine. It's just that the teacher got scared"

"Scared? Of what?" Now, Ziggy was dead curious. What could have made the teacher scared under water?

"He said he saw something strange down there. Like a monster or so. I don't know"

"Seriously? Of course, there is a lot of weird things underwater, but a monster? Come one, you are just kidding right?"

"I'm dead serious. The teacher said he saw the monster following us. But he didn't really describe it as a monster; from his words it is as if he was describing a mermaid or something" Huzey explained and seconds after, Ziggy heard him made a gulped. He must have gone to drink some water.

"What?" He exclaimed bursting into laughs. "I cannot believe a Rivendell teacher said that. What else did he say?"

"He said that it has a fish tail and ugly face and scary red hair," Huzey narrated lazily.

Ziggy laughed hard again. "We'll I think the new teacher was crazy"

"I don't know, but he was really scared" Huzey assured him.

"You believe him?" He asked still grinning. Huzey's story was one hell funny.

"We've been underwater in the Loch a couple of times before and we haven't seen anything weird like that," Huzey answered heaving his disapproval over the idea.

"He is just hallucinating I bet" Ziggy concluded right after.

"I think so too…"

"You must be tired"

"A little. How are you?"

"Having a hard time sleeping" He confessed.

Huzey laughed. That made Ziggy raised one of his brows. "What's funny?"

"As I suspected. You are afraid of the bodyguard?"

"Of course I'm not! "he answered in defense.

"Oh come, you can't fool me..."

"Shut up Huzey!"

"You'll end up getting molested again!"

"Fuck off!"

"Ziggy is afraid of the bodyguard Samuelle!" Huzey teased him as he let go of another loud guffaw.

"I said I'm not afraid—heck—Godness!" Ziggy dropped his phone immediately when heard knocks on his bedroom door. His knees suddenly trembled as all the hairs in his body stoop up in fright.

"Young Sire are you there?" Someone called.
