759 SECRET TO HIS GRAVE II

John Albert thought that it was the big break he was waiting for when his uncle introduced him to becoming a private doctor that one can call 24/7 whenever they’re needed. The Minato family was well-known in City A and many people testified that this family pays their employees really well.

Who didn’t want money?

Since he grew up with the support of his uncle, he knew how difficult it was to make ends meet. Thus, without having any doubts or hesitations, Dr. Albert agreed to work with them.

The first year that he worked for them, everything was normal. He was given a small apartment unit close to Minato’s residence where he can stay and be on standby just in case someone needed his help. His work wasn’t anything abnormal as far as he was concerned. Most of the time, he treated the patriarch of the family whenever his illness struck him. Fever, cough, cold, and wounds, are just common illnesses things that one would incur.

In his second year, he started to notice something. There were times that the Minato family’s bodyguards would come back wounded from all sorts of weapons. At first, he didn’t mind it. They were the bodyguards of a prestigious family so he thought it was normal that they would get into fights with the family’s nemesis.

In his third year, he was asked if he has knowledge about poisons and other harmful materials. Of course, as a doctor, he also studied harmful things like poisons. He knew which poisons could be fatal and which ones could be cured. Still, he didn’t say anything about that. When he agreed to be their doctor, he signed a confidentiality agreement and if he breaches the contract, he’ll be paying them ten times the total amount he had received from them. Where will he get that money? Left with no choice, he did what he was told to do and sealed his mouth.

In his fourth year, that was when things started going south. On his way back to the apartment, he saw Natsu’s car and thought that the man needed something from him. Why else would he be staying there if he wasn’t looking for him? That was what he genuinely thought. When he approached the car, moans and kissing sounds could be heard which embarrassed him. He never had any experience with this kind of activity and yet, there he was, witnessing it firsthand.

He decided to ignore it but when he passed by, he didn’t know why – probably out of curiosity about what those people were doing – he looked to the side and it so happen that the window of the car was left open.

Dr. Albert wanted to curse heaven and hell but his words got stuck in his throat. He could only swallow drily from the shock he received while Clara gave him a wink.

.....

He didn’t know how he managed it but the next thing he knew, he was already inside his apartment, retching with bloodshot eyes. He was disgusted with them. “F**k! That was incest! Disgusting!”

To make things worse, while he was still moving on from what he saw, Clara came knocking on his door. As soon as he opened it, she pushed him inside and kissed him like the maniac she was – tongue and saliva included.

Compared to the bullying he received when he was young, being kissed forcefully by this nymphomaniac was worse. His first kiss was stolen by her and to think she just did it with her uncle.

Dr. Albert felt so disgusted that he avoided seeing Clara’s face for one month. He knew his standing in the family and he knew that no one would believe him plus Clara and Minato threatened him with the lives of his uncle and cousin.

From then on, Clara was no longer bothered by his presence. Even when he was around, she would do things as she pleases including her betrayal of her best friend.

Dr. Albert’s first taste of hell was the bullying that happened when he was young. He has forgotten the inhumane treatment of those students and it was only when he met Clara that he realized those bullies were no match for this woman’s evilness.

He continued to work for them, helped her with the abortion when she got pregnant with the boyfriend of her best friend and even provided her poison that could affect one’s brain function just because she didn’t want to come second.

While she was messing with other men, her secret affair with her uncle didn’t stop until she got pregnant again. This time, she didn’t want to abort the child. Dr. Albert didn’t know what made her choose to keep the baby and he wasn’t interested to know either.

Life continued until she met Magnus Dumrique in a club. She orchestrated everything to make him think something happened to them and a few months after that, she told him she was pregnant.

Dr. Albert found the man’s name very familiar but he has forgotten where he met him. He kept communication with Clara even after she got married to Magnus and that was how he finally met Latticia again.

Unfortunately, the day he met her was also the day that she was fighting for her life. He didn’t expect that the woman that Clara wanted to kill was the same woman that he loves all those years.

Clara left the crime scene already and they denied her involvement in it. Dr. Albert contemplated what he should do when Latticia lost consciousness. After calling an ambulance, he paid the doctor to fake Latticia’s death. He spent a lot just to get her even when the chances of her getting back to life were slim.

Using an unclaimed body in the morgue, they cremated her and gave her remains to the Sugo family. Dr. Albert couldn’t think of anything other than taking her away from everyone. He didn’t care about the money he had to spend to get her out of the country or the people he had to pay to keep this matter secret. Dr. Albert only needed her in his life.

Using the excuse that he needed to go home due to family matters, plus the fact that he got involved with Clara’s crime, the Minato family allowed him to leave the country.

He successfully took her with him and brought her to another hospital overseas. With his friends from the same field, he was able to treat her to the best he could without anyone knowing that she was alive. He was able to keep this secret for more than 25 years and he has no plan to tell anyone the truth. Even when he was sent to jail, he asked someone to take care of her and the station allowed him to call home once a week with the excuse that his wife was ill. Of course, the officers look into this matter and Latticia was indeed ill and she was registered as his wife as well. Nobody doubted him.

No matter what happens, he ought to bring this secret with him to his death – to his grave. Latticia didn’t need to know about his feelings for her. He didn’t need her to reciprocate his love either. It was his choice to be selfish for the rest of his life because of her.
