Chapter 40 - EPIPHANY

Epiphany :- An experience of a sudden and striking realization.

William went to his office after having his breakfast . Of course , Jennifer order him to have breakfast first before leaving . Leo and Jenny were packing their bags to go back to Italy as they have evening flight . Steven , Fiona and Justin went their own respective works . Jennifer was at home as she is going to drop Leo and Jenny to the airport . They know that it takes time for William to get over Sara . But there are few feeling who are experiencing bad weather .

Today , at Valentino Empire has different atmosphere . Outside the building has a sunny weather but inside it is dark , scary . There is a pin drop silence on each floor of the whole building and everyone's eyes are on their computer system . Why ?? Because of their boss . William has a cold aura around him and if anyone went to his office has to go through his anger . They are seeing different boss as William was one of the those who didn't shout at his employees just because of a simple things like , why they smile ? why they are wearing just shirt and not tie ? or why their shirts having creases ? why the files are not on his table which he didn't ask ? And Most of the important thing , if someone ask for leave , especially to go with his / her partner or some occasion , that person is coming out having sad face .

On the other hand , Sara is in guilty state right now . She is blaming herself to say mean things to William just because he confess his love for her . Of course she has to be guilty one because what she said is wrong . Everyone has a right to love someone and confess . She can reject him with simple words like , ' Sorry William I don't feel same about you .' Or ' I don't want to fall for someone .' But no she is saying things that no one deserve .

Actually , this realization hits after she witness a proposal happen in the hospital . A girl propose a guy but he said politely that he loves his girlfriend who is carrying his child and they are going to married soon . Later , She had a conversation with Sara and while talking she said ," You know I was afraid that if he didn't love me back then he is going say alot of words that I can't tolerate as he is a blunt person . But I am happy that atleast he didn't disrespect me and replied me politely ." Sara didn't say anything to her but she remember William's confession and her calling him like ' bad luck .' Who says these words to someone .

He don't deserve this . He didn't deserve to hear things like he is bad luck or he don't have anyone in his life . Everyone in there family knows that how much Jennifer and Steven loves William and his brother and sister they also . They had a bond that was found rarely in the world and that also of steps . She speak in so much hatred that she is now feeling sick of herself . When she is in deep thought , her phone vibrate in her doctor's coat . She look at the screen and it was her brother . She picked and before she said anything she heard her brother's cold voice .

Leo :- Where are you ?... I am in Star hotel in London , Room no. 1205 . Come and meet me . It's related to Dad.

With that he hung up the phone . Leo was mad at her . She did wrong and she deserve to have cold shoulder from her brother . He never get mad at her . Not even at a time when she deliberately throw water on his admission form for New York College as she don't want him to leave her and their mother . But now is different thing . He didn't believe that his sister can say something that she know that can hurt someone .

He didn't plan to come to London . So , he ask Lawyer Li that he can tell him about their father's will and what is written in it as Sara just join the hospital and she can't come here . Lawyer Li told him that this is the last letter of their father , and he request him to read it to both of you as it contain both of you and his last wish as well . He told him that if Leo is okay with it then they can go to London and read this letter and then leave from their . Leo agreed with him and told him that he will contact him after booking the flight ticket . And here he is .

Star Hotel

London

On the top floor of the hotel , Leo had his suite . He is sitting on the sofa of his hotel room and had wine glass in his one hand and magazine in other . He is wearing his grey sweatshirt with leaves to be roll up , just below his elbow . It looks like that he is reading that magazine but he is in deep thought . He was wondering what is the last wish of his father that his Lawyer waited for them to grow up and get matured . He can tell their mother but he didn't .

His thought were interrupted by the door bell . He get up from the sofa and went towards the door to open . When he open the door , Sara come inside and hug him tightly . Leo didn't reciprocate the hug and break the hug and told her to sit . He pick his phone and Call a number . When the other side pick his phone , he said

Leo :- She's here , You can come .

Lawyer Li :- Okay .

After calling lawyer Li , he didn't say anything to Sara and She sensed that her brother is mad at her so she kept her mouth shut . It's not like she didn't feel guilty , she did and she tried to call William but he didn't . She then message him that she is sorry and please pick her phone so that they can talk . But William didn't reply instead he blocked her . She was mad at him but then she feels that she deserve this . Then she try to call Justin and he did pick her phone but he also talk to her in cold tone .

Justin :- Sara , I am busy . And don't behave like nothing happen because we all knew about William's feeling towards you . But we didn't know that you're going to talk to him like that . Do you , how long he is loving you ?

With that he hung up the call . Sara is feeling guilty even more now . And here , her brother is not talking to her and giving a blank look . Few minutes later , There is knock on the door and Leo open it to let Lawyer Li come inside . Sara came out of her thoughts and look towards door . There comes a old man , just around the age of their father . He had grey - brown hairs and black eyes . He is wearing lower and sweatshirt and had few files in his hand . He shake hands with Leo and come towards Sara and forward his hand for shake as he introduced himself ," Hello . I am Lawyer Li . Your father's Lawyer . " Sara shake hand with him and replied ," Hello , Lawyer Li . I am Sara ."

Lawyer Li told her while he is taking his seat ," I already told Leo that your father write a letter before dying . He somewhere feels to write a letter to both of you and hand over to me so that I kept this with me before you both grow up and get matured . He told me to tell you this that in this , it's his last wish . So , hope you consider this ." When he said the last words he look at Sara . Sara was happy somewhere that her father write a letter to them as his last words because she didn't get a talk to Rayson before he board his flight . But there is one thing she is not aware that after this letter , her whole life is going to change . Just because of his last wish .
