The Last Embrace 237 A New Purpose

Jessy and Adam woke up at 7:00 in the morning. They went downstairs and eat breakfast then Jessy brought Grandpa Waldo into her rose garden at the back of the house.

Jessy smiled proudly while admiring her roses, although Nana Aida is very busy with household ch.o.r.es she still finds time to water her plants.

"Okay, my dearest roses listen up, I want to introduce you to Grandpa Waldo here, from now on he will be the one to take care of you and water you every day," she announced to the flowers about their new caretaker.

Grandpa Waldo smiled at the roses. "Yeah, from now on I will take care of all the beautiful flowers in this garden on behalf of Jessy," he said to the flowers.

Jessy glanced at the two boys, Caden and Adam were having fun in the swing, she turns her attention to the old man beside her. "Not much to do in my garden Grandpa except to pull out the weeds that are growing in the ground around the plants then water them daily if there is no rain, then if you want—you can talk to them. I find talking to plants relaxing, you can try it. I suggest that you only attend to the plants during early morning and late afternoon when the sun is no longer visible up in the sky," Jessy suggested.

"Okay, no problem, child," Grandpa Waldo replied, he looked at the vacant s.p.a.ce near the rose garden. "Can I also grow some vegetables in that area over there? I want to cultivate that area for a vegetable garden," he said pointing at the area nearby.

Jessy nodded her head. "Yeah, why not, Nana Aida would love to cook fresh ingredients from the vegetable garden," she responded.

"Thank you, child, for giving my life a new purpose," Grandpa Waldo got tears in his eyes.

Jessy smiled kindly at the old man. "Grandpa you're home now, and beginning today we are going to be your family, and here, you will have a peace of mind and a sense of belongingness," she rubbed his back as a sign of affection.

"You and Adam have a kind soul, I'm very lucky to meet you kids in this lifetime," Grandpa Waldo uttered the words with heartfelt sincerity gleaming in his eyes.

Jessy smiled and continue to listen to Grandpa Waldo's chattering about the types of vegetables that he's planning to grow in the garden.

One hour later.

Time for Adam, Jessy, and Caden to go back to the city.

After packing their things and putting their baggage in the trunk they get into the car and waved goodbye to Nana Aida and Grandpa Waldo.

"Bye Nana Aida and Grandpa Waldo!" Jessy, Adam, and Caden said in chorus.

"Goodbye kids, see you soon!" Nana Aida and Grand Waldo said aloud to the moving car.

The car was now exiting the tall gate and was moving into the main highway.

After thirty minutes of traveling, Adam instructed Caden to find a secluded area near the highway that was surrounded by big trees and dense bushes.

"Why?" Caden asked.

"Just find one, we need to hurry back because we still have an appointment this afternoon," he explained.

"Ah okay," Caden finally realized why.

"And I also need to go back to Facility quickly," Jessy said.

A few minutes later, they found the perfect place a few meters away from the highway and hidden from anyone's view.

"I guess I have to say bye now, guys," Jessy said. "Closed your eyes first, Caden," she ordered.

"Huh?" Caden's said frowning, he can't understand why would he need to close his eyes?

Adam chuckled and freeze Caden instantly.

Jessy and Adam looked into each other's eyes and they embraced each other, then their lips locked, after a few minutes of intense pa.s.sionate kissing their lips parted.

"Time to go now, Adam, I love you!" Jessy murmured.

"I love you too, see you in the Facility one of these days," he said.

Jessy grabs her backpack and performs the teleportation process, she disappeared from the car instantly.

Adam unfreezes Caden.

"Hey, where is Jessy?" Caden asked finding the girl gone.

"She already goes back to her place," Adam answered.

"Ah okay, so we will continue our journey now?" Caden asked.

Adam shook his head. "No, wait here a second." He got off from the car and surveyed the surrounding areas, no one is around, it's safe to teleport the car towards the nearest area in the outskirts of the city.

He ambled back to the car.

"I have to freeze you again, bro, I will teleport the car to a much nearer area near the city so that we can arrive there on time before lunch because we have an appointment at 2:00 in the afternoon," he explained outside the window.

"Okay, I got it, what I'm gonna do then?" Caden asked.

"Just stay where you are," he said and entered the car. Once he was already inside the car he freezes Caden and began the teleportation process in his mind.

A moment later.

Adam unfreeze Caden, they were now a hundred miles away from the city, the car was parked at the back of an abandoned barn a few meters away from the highway.

"Where are we?" Caden's eyes widened, he was surprised upon seeing them in a different location, he noticed this area when they were traveling on the road towards the mansion yesterday.

"Our current location is more or less a hundred miles away from the city, I used my power so that we can travel faster and reached the condo within two hours," Adam explained.

"Wow, this is awesome!" Caden turns the key to start the engine.

A few minutes later they were now back on the road heading to the city proper.

~~~o0o~~~

Back in the Facility.

Jessy went to the clinic right away after arriving in her room. She was now undergoing a blood transfusion with a recipient.

"Have you rested well, Jess?" asked the doctor.

Jessy nods her head. "Yeah, it's nice to relax once in a while," she replied.

"Good to hear that, a long rest is good for your health considering that we are harvesting your blood almost daily," the doctor said.

"Doc, just want to ask this, I can't get pregnant with my situation like this?" she refers to the blood transfusion thing.

The doctor was frowning. "Huh? You and Prince Zain would want to have a baby? No, I won't advise it, but if you want to stop the blood transfusion activity it's okay to get pregnant anytime, you just have to tell the royal family about your plan of pregnancy," he said.

Jessy released a deep sigh. "No. It's not a big deal, I'm just asking," she said. Everyone knows that she was still the wife of Prince Zain, naturally, they will think that she was planning to conceive their baby.

The doctor looked at her, internally debating whether she was serious with her question or not.

Jessy saw the doctor looking at her. "I'm just kidding, Doc," she said smiling.

"Okay, as you say so," the doctor shrugged his shoulder.
