Suicide II

While Ewan waited for Fiona's doctor to come and give the final analysis as the latter had promised, he checked out the KN press' website. 

Beside him, Fiona laid as if dead. 

After her father, Alfonso, had left, she had gotten paler, as if there was some thread of connection between them.  

He had to keep checking her vitals to confirm she was still alive, not ready to be bereaved again.

He looked at her again, sighed tiredly, and dropped his iPad on his lap. 

The money he had offered Alfonso was the best he could really offer at the moment, considering his company's stocks which had kept declining, even without the interference of the KN media company. 

He only hoped Alfonso would understand. The company was very important to him. It was the only thing left of his immediate family. He couldn't risk it folding up.

Alfonso would have to be satisfied with his taking care of Fiona properly.
