I Hope You Will Never Regret

Four years had passed since Valencia passed away. Xavier had never looked at another woman again. He kept the promise he made to his late wife. He buried himself in work.

On Friday at 5 pm, he bid goodbye to his Executive Secretary, Cole Knight, and left the office. His bodyguard, Wayne Butler, was waiting for him in the underground parking lot.

Wayne greeted his boss with respect and opened the door for him. Then he went to the driver’s side. Wayne drove the car to His Grace Hotel.

When they arrived at His Grace Hotel, Xavier looked at his bodyguard and said, “Wayne, please fetch me tomorrow around 10 am.” Then he walked into the hotel and pressed the 60th floor button.

He walked to his Presidential suite. He took a quick shower and changed into navy pants and a white shirt.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Last month he decided to stop wearing black clothes. He was mourning his wife in his heart. Then he headed to the private room to meet his friends.

His friends were still bachelors. They were scared to commit after they saw their friend losing his wife. After a year, he got married.

Xavier met Hunter Wood outside the lifts. They hugged each other, and then they walked to their private room. Chase, Xander and Ross were already there waiting for them.

They were beaming with joy when they saw each other. Chase hugged Xavier tightly and said, “How are you doing, President Taylor?” Xavier smiled and replied, “I am doing well, Dr Forbes. Thank you. How are you doing?”

Chase smiled and replied, “I am doing well, Xavier. Thank you.” Hunter Wood was hugging his best friend, Xander Barrett.

Xavier hugged Ross Bradley and said, “I received a call from your grandfather asking me to encourage you to bring your girlfriend home.”

Ross laughed out loud and replied, “Do you believe that my grandfather has banned me? I am no longer allowed to go home without my girlfriend.” Ross was Xavier’s Fashion Designer.

Xavier smiled and patted his friend’s shoulder, “You have to pray hard to the Lord to send you your soulmate. Grandfather Bradley is waiting for his great-grandson.” Ross looked at Xavier helplessly.

A few minutes later, the waiter walked in to take their orders. After they placed their orders, he left the private room.

He smiled at Chase and said, “Dr Forbes, when are you going to introduce our sister-in-law to us?”

Chase had met the love of his life at the hospital. She was a surgeon at the Taylor Private Hospital. He smiled broadly and replied, “I will bring her to meet you guys soon. Please bring a lot of gifts, like money.” They all laughed out loud.

Xavier nodded his head and asked, “How much do you think would be decent to give our sister-in-law per person, Xander?”

Xander smiled and replied, “I think five hundred thousand rand should be the minimum. What do you think guys?” Xavier’s friends had deep pockets.

Ross looked at Chase and replied, “Chase, please tell us in advance when you are bringing her to meet us. I suggest that we meet on Saturdays to introduce our sweethearts.”

Hunter smiled broadly and said, “I have found my soulmate, but she hasn’t agreed to be mine yet. As soon as I win her heart, I will introduce her to you guys.”

Xavier smiled and asked, “Who is the lucky lady?” Hunter was grinning from ear to ear and replied, “All I can say is that she is a CEO of a big company. I will tell you her name when she is mine.”

Xavier nodded his head and said, “Shout if you need help.” Hunter nodded his head and replied, “I will surely do that, Xavier.”

Chase looked at Xavier and said, “I have been nominated to attend the International Practitioners Conference. It will be held in New York next month.

The conference is starting on Monday, the 5th, until Thursday, the 8th. I will ask around maybe I will be able to bring back the specialist who will be able to operate on baby Sage.”

Xavier’s eyes lit up when he heard his friend’s words. He looked at Chase and replied, “That would be great, my friend. We are praying for a miracle.”

On Monday morning, at the Taylor Private Hospital, Avery was at Dr Lambert’s office. Dr Lambert was smiling broadly at her and said, “Time is flying, Avery. I remember the first time I saw you. You were five years old. Look at you now, you are a big girl.”

The Taylor Private Hospital Director, Dr George Hamilton, hired Avery as a full-time doctor instead of an Intern. He was scared that other hospitals would steal Avery.

Avery had a smile on her face and said, “Uncle Lambert, I have developed the formula for Longevity Supplements.

My father has been working tirelessly since he was sixteen years old. I am scared that one day he will have a heart attack.

The Longevity Health Supplements, among other things, will reduce the risk of heart attack. It will normalize high blood pressure. Also, it will improve the quality of sleep.”

Then she handed the formula to Dr Lambert. His eyes lit up when he saw the formula. He smiled brightly and said, “A lot of people will benefit from your drug. Are you going to produce pills?”

Avery shook her head and replied, “Uncle Lambert, I was thinking of producing syrup instead of pills because most elderly people don’t like taking pills. What do you think?”

Dr Lambert couldn’t contain his excitement and replied, “This is the best drug ever. Why don’t you produce both? Shout if you need help.”

Avery nodded her head and said, “I hear you, Uncle Lambert. My father bought the land to build the laboratory for me. However, we are still waiting for the Martins Group Construction workers to come back home.

I don’t want to delay this drug anymore. May I use the university laboratory, Uncle Lambert?”

Dr Lambert smiled and replied, “Of course, you can use it. The university has a new laboratory. Afterwards, we will take your product for testing and certification.”

Avery thanked Dr Lambert, and then she went back to her office. She had brain surgery at 1 pm. She started operating on patients when she was sixteen years old under the guidance of Dr Lambert.
