I Hope You Will Never Regret

On Wednesday morning, during breakfast, Mr Martins received a call from Mr Roy Saunders notifying him that his loved ones had been safely transported to the morgue. Mr Martins thanked him, and then they hung up.

Mr Martins’ expression was somber, and he said, “Aunt Rose, it was Mr Saunders on the phone. I will leave you here to take care of Lily.” Then he took Butler Bruce and Clayton with him.

Two hours later, they were at the Martins mansion. Elizabeth was in the living room watching the news. Her husband approached her and said, “Elizabeth, please accompany me to the morgue to identify my brother-in-law and my sister-in-law.”

Elizabeth wanted to refuse but she changed her mind. She went to her bedroom to change her clothes. August went to Aiden’s room, but he wasn’t there. He walked to his daughter’s room.

Avery had a letter in her hand from KZN University. She smiled brightly when she saw her father and asked, “Daddy, how is Lily?” Her father sighed and replied, “Lily is like a zombie.

She is paralyzed by grief, and she is blaming herself for her parents’ death. I am going with your mother to the morgue to identify your uncle and your aunt. I am just hoping that their bodies are intact.”

Avery’s eyes brimmed with tears and said, “My heart goes out to Lily. I don’t want to think about what I would do if something like this happened to you, Daddy. When is the funeral?”

Her father hugged her tightly and replied, “Nothing is going to happen to me. The Lord will bless me with many years until I see my great grandchildren. The funeral will be on Saturday. Where is your brother?”

Avery smiled with tears in her eyes and replied, “The Lord will bless you with good health, Daddy. Aiden is writing an Accounting exam this morning and I will be writing Life Science at 2 pm.”

Then she handed the letter to her father. Her father opened the letter. Sitting on the envelope was the KNZ University acceptance letter. Her father was beaming with joy and said, “Congratulations Dr Martins, you have put a smile on my face.”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

A few minutes later, Clayton took Mr Martins and Mr Martins to the morgue. When they arrived, Mr Saunders was waiting for them at the door. He shook their hands and ushered them to the morgue.

Mr Saunders looked at them with a somber expression and said, “The search and rescue team found five intact bodies. The rest were burnt beyond recognition.” Then he opened the first coffin.

August took his wife’s hand and looked at the coffin. Elizabeth nearly fainted when she saw her brother. August hugged his wife tightly. His brother-in-law looked like he was just sleeping.

Mr Saunders opened another coffin, but it wasn’t Elizabeth’s sister-in-law. They found Cathy in the fifth coffin. August had arranged with His Angels’ Funeral Director to take the Parker couple to his Funeral Home.

As soon as they identify them, the Funeral Director and his team took the Parker couple to his Funeral Home.

August and his wife, Elizabeth, walked out of the morgue with heavy hearts. August had tears in his eyes, but he held them back because he wanted to be strong for his wife.

He tried to take his wife in his arms but looked at him coldly. Her husband wanted to comfort her, but she told him that she didn’t need him.

When they arrived home, Elizabeth locked herself in her bedroom. She didn’t want to see pretentious people.

Mr Martins walked to his son’s bedroom. He knocked on the door, Aiden said, “Come in.” Aiden was overjoyed when he saw his father. His father hugged him for a long time. He was happy to see him too and asked, “How was your Accounting exam?”

Aiden was beaming with joy and replied, “I aced Accounting paper, Daddy. How can I fail with Avery as my tutor? She helped me a lot, Daddy.” His father was happy to see his children talking to each other again.

His father looked at him and said, “Aiden, tomorrow is promised to no one. Anything could happen to one of us anytime. Please embrace each other and don’t allow other people to come between you.

Who knew that your uncle and your aunt would leave us suddenly? No one saw it coming. I need a distraction. Do you mind accompanying me to the company?

I have a scheduled meeting at 3 pm.” Aiden was over the moon. He had been longing to visit his father’s company for years, but his mother told him that she didn’t want him to be involved in office politics.

He quickly changed his clothes, then he left with his father in high spirits. He didn’t even tell his mother that he was going with his father. He was scared that his mother would stop him from going.

When they arrived at the company, senior management came to CEO Martins’ office. They greeted CEO Martins with respect.

Director Brooks looked at her boss with sadness in her eyes and said, “CEO Martins, on behalf of the Martins Group staff members. We would like to express our deepest condolences to you and your family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this time of grief.”

CEO Martins thanked the management for their support, then he told them that the funeral would be on Saturday in Richards Bay. He asked his Executive Secretary, Siyabonga Cele, to arrange transport for those who wished to attend the Parker couple’s funeral.

At 2:55 pm, CEO Martins, his son, Aiden and Siyabonga headed to the boardroom for a meeting. Siyabonga read the previous minutes of the meeting. It was approved and adopted.

Siyabonga indicated that there were two ongoing projects, then he asked the Human Resources Director and Planning Director to give feedback.

At the Trinity Leadership Academy, the students were writing Life Science paper. Avery submitted her Life Science paper at 3:30 and walked out of the exam hall. Principal Glen followed behind her and asked, “How was the paper, Miss Martins?”

Avery smiled at Principal Glen and replied, “It was fair, Principal Glen. I have been accepted at KZN University for Medicine.” Principal Glen congratulated her and asked, “When is the funeral?”

Avery told Principal Glen that the funeral would be on Saturday at Richards Bay. Avery bade Principal Glen goodbye and left.

Aunt Bridgette was already outside the gate waiting for her. Avery walked to the car and got inside. Aunt Bridgette smiled and asked, “How was the paper?” Avery told her that she aced the paper. Then Aunt Bridgette drove away from school.
