"I wont force you" Nathan broke Edie from her trance" think about it". He brought out is card and handed it over to her. "if you are ready, you can always contact me". With that, he strode out of the room.
Minutes later, the door opened again as kate stepped in.
"are you alright" she asked edie.
"hmmmm" edie nodded staring at the card Nathan had given her
"hey" kate shoved her hand in a waving gesture "back to earth babe, let me see that" she took the card from edie. Few seconds later, kate nearly screamed "oh my goodness"
"damn" edie cursed"Kat can you keep your voice down, we are at the hospital for goodness sake "
" did.... Did that man give you this"
"yea" edie nodded absentmindedly.
"do you know him" edie asked.
"when i saw him at first" kate beamed excitedly "i thought he looked familiar, but now this" she shoved the card in the air" this confirms it all.
"why did you say so"
"edie, have you heard of the most handsome bachelor and the youngest ceo of country A"
"you know am not really into that" she spoke in a low voice.
" dravis Nathan, every lady in country A dream man"
"oh" edie spoke lowly"then why did he ask me to be his girlfriend "
" he did what " kate had a surprised expression
" i think he's a psycho, does he go around asking girls to be his girlfriend "
" oh edie, what did you say to him "
" what were you expecting kat" she shrugged.
"dont tell me you didn't answer him" kat had a frown settled on her face.

"mr dravis, the bills have been settled" Dave spoke behind Nathan as they walked out of the hospital.
"thanks Dave". They got to the front of the car. "dave, get me all the information of miss edie before the ending of tomorrow"
"yes mr dravis"

"what took you so long" Nathan's mother went out to embrace him" the visitors will arrive soon".
Nathan rolled his eyes "if not for you threatening me about your sickness, i wouldn't be here".
"they are here" evelyn spoke.
A woman who look to be the same age as evelyn was seen walking over to evelyn. Behind her was a young lady who looked like she was in her mid twenties.
Although, the young lady was pretty, Nathan couldn't help comparing her with edie. What was wrong with him.
"oh, isnt she karina" evelyn beamed in excitement "what a beauty"
"thanks aunty" karina smiled
" lets go in".

"i heard you have just arrived from the states" evelyn started the conversation as they were eating
"yes aunt, i have just graduated from business school"
"oh my gosh, so how old are you"
"i am 25 aunt"
"you are just the perfect woman for my son" evelyn redirected her gaze to Nathan then back to karina, who was blushing. Nathan suddenly coughed, earning every ones attention.
" i would be in my room" he suddenly stood up
" how about you show karina around" evelyn suddenly proposed earning a look of dissatisfaction from nathan.
