Hollywood Zenith-Chapter 4 First Contact

[Different Perspective]

[Outside a grand mansion in an upscale neighborhood in Britain.]

A young couple was driving relatively slowly. There was tension in the air inside the car. The couple in the backseat looked gloomy for some reason.

"It's okay, Laura don't worry we will find a way. I will not give up on you because of something that the doctor said. We can look for more professional around the world. We will find a way." Man solemnly said with firm conviction.

" I know, Robert; it's been five years still we were not able to conceive. I am just worried about our family and what they will say if we can't produce an heir soon; as the Master of the house, it's your responsibility. I know everybody is very supportive, but I blame myself. Doctor also confirmed my fertility issue. Sigh," Laura added.

They were trying for five whole years without any success. Initially, they were hopeful, but after repeat failures, they consulted different pioneers in this field as their family doesn't lack money. They were one of the most powerful families in history, but even so, money can't buy life. After half a month of travel around the world, they were met with the same answer that the lady of the house is suffering from Primary Ovarian Insufficiency(POI).

Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI), also known as premature ovarian failure, happens when a woman's ovaries stop working, usually before she is 40.

Many women naturally experience reduced fertility when they are about 40 years old. They may start getting irregular menstrual periods as they transition to menopause. For women with POI, irregular periods and reduced fertility start before 40. Sometimes it can begin as early as the teenage years.

POI is different from premature menopause. With early menopause, your periods stop before age 40. You can no longer get pregnant. The cause can be natural or disease, surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation. With POI, some women still have occasional periods. They may even get pregnant. In most cases of POI, the cause is unknown.

Laura was already in her 30s, and their everyday happiness had taken a severe blow with the uncertainty of not having an heir. She was still hopeful about the future as not all hope is lost, but she always wanted to start a family with the love of her life. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

Old John was a driver for the Rothchild for 20 years; He was responsible for driving the Head of the family and was naturally very close to Robert. He had seen the Master grow before his eyes from his school days to adulthood. He was usually driving, as usual; he had been on this road thousands of times when suddenly, he noticed something. There was a figure lying ahead wrapped in blue sheets; his mind became alert; it was not uncommon for the Head of a powerful family to face an assassination attempt. He stopped the sedan and called out--

"Master, I think there is an ambush. Something is lying in the middle of the road."

Robert snapped out of his thoughts and looked ahead. He knew that people couldn't know about their location. All the family members have secret organizations guarding them, and it was very hard for anything dangerous to pass that parameter. He got out of the car, seemingly inspecting the surroundings as this place was close to their estate. If something gets this close, security is compromised or a different issue. The security bureau guarded the family existed for over a hundred years. They were a force to be reckoned with; they were highly competent. He was not worried and walked straight to the lump of cloth. He knew something was wrong; at a glance, there was some movement.

He reached the place, carefully uncovered the blue cloth, and looked inside the den of fabrics. What he saw stunned him on the spot; a child of exquisite features was lying there groaning, seemingly in pain. He panicked at the child's state and was bruised all over his body with little to no cloth to cover him. He carefully lifted the boy and rushed to the car.

At the time, Laura was anxious about something happening to her husband. She got off the car and waited with bated breath looking over her husband in the distance. Suddenly, she saw him running over, carrying something in his arm. When Robert inspected the hurdle, she suddenly saw him running over made her alert. When he got close, she saw what appeared to be a small girl with long white hair covering half of her face. At a glance, you can tell that the girl was gorgeous, but there were many injuries all over her body. She saw Robert's face as he seemed to tell her to hurry up through his eyes. They had been married for so long and had a tight bond; they could understand each other emotions through eye contact. From her husband's eyes, she knew that situation was complicated.

She hurriedly ordered Old John, " Please start the car, Uncle John."

Old John obliged and started the sedan. Robert quickly went into the car with the mysterious boy and urged John to hurry up and take the sedan toward the hospital. He gently placed the boy's Head on his wife's lap and started the conversation.

"Honey, The injuries seem serious; he is breathing heavily." He said

" We have to take him to the emergency center; It's awful seeing her state." She states hesitantly.

" Well, First, It is a boy, and I think he will be fine. Most injuries seem external, which is a good sign as internal damage could worsen the situation."

" Huh?" she exclaimed. She thought its a girl, but it turned out to be a boy which was a surprise to her, but she put that in the back of her Head at the moment. The situation didn't allow her to delve into it as the car rushed toward the nearest hospital. He appears to be 9-10yrs old and seemed to undergo hardship which resulted in his current state. She was observing the boy when John exclaimed--

" Sir, Madam, we are a few seconds short of reaching the hospital's entrance."

"Laura, be ready; we have to hurry up when we reach there," Robert stated. ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m

Sedan slowly stopped at the entrance, and the couple exited carrying the boy in their arms and called out to the doctors stationed at the entrance.

"Doctor, we need help."
