Chapter 9 - Baby Drake

Frank, Philip and the rest were arrested and taken to the police station, mostly for questioning and detention.

However, despite the fact that they were all arrested, they were quite calm and not being anxious and worried.

They knew that with Philip's idea, they would be set free.

And as expected,they were released. Just after the CCTV footage from the treasure room was retrieved.

The emergence and the retrieval of the CCTV footage from the cameras in the treasure room, was what saved their lives from being ruined.

The American government had immediately announced for their release after their testimonies (their claims) and the CCTV footage was forwarded to the White House.

In the end, they all went home happily and thankfully even to the extent, that they were allowed to continue their jobs as security personnels.

"What a long day!"

Frank had actually exclaimed during their short release from police detention.

The rest with him had nodded in agreement with him, even Slick and Philip.

"At least, we wouldn't have to take the blame for what we witnessed".

Slick muttered in response to Frank's exclamation, a sudden gratitude blossoming in his heart.

The rest as well also agreed with him.

But despite their release, the American government, by the evening, immediately announced that thorough investigations should be carried out to find out the bottom of the scenes displayed by one of the most important artifacts directly owned by the government itself.

The rubbles of the two stone tablets were collected and secured safely as thorough investigations were to be conducted upon it to find out the reasons for the scene displayed by the two stone tablets.

Aside from that, Frank was still bothered about the whole magical scene.

Despite the fact of his immediate release and the American government trying to get to the bottom of the magical scene he and his colleagues witnessed, he couldn't help but be bothered even more.

It bothered him more and he had this gnawing feeling that all wouldn't be well.

And also speaking of the voice they had heard during the magical scene, he couldn't help but have the feeling that the owner of the voice had something to do with the whole magical scene.

However, he had only hoped that the American government get to the bottom of the magical scene he and his colleagues witnessed.

He knew that something would happen in the nearest future. Something great and he was sure, it had something to do with the magical scene that took place in the treasure room.

He may not be a believer of magic, but he was sure that what he and his colleagues witnessed, was magic.

Which brings him to the conclusion that, the two stone tablets were a magical artifact.

With this bothering him, he had only sighed exasperatedly on his way home, after everything that had happened to him, and his colleagues today.

Only if he knew, that both he and his colleagues that had witnessed the transformation of the prophecy into the two souls of the Angel of war, were part of the dangerous plot.

It was already evening and drawing closer to sunset.

It was time for most people in the city of Santiago to wrap up their daily works.

It's past noon time and most traders, workshops, companies and industries,etc, were all closing up for the day.

Maybe except for those working on night shifts and those working overtime.

Or even the night clubs and bars.

Nevertheless, in the five star hotel owned by the Governor of Santiago, there seemed to be little or no concern on the day coming to an end and the beginning of the night.

The Lively Leo's Hotel was still the way it had been since when the ceremony had started.

But, some high class social guests were already making their way home or peradventure, making their way to a different location.

This shows that the ceremony would soon be coming to an end. But from clear observation, by the time the ceremony would actually come to an end, it would be night time by then.

Although, the hotel was still lively as it had been since morning.

Especially with no interruptions to the soft and soothing music that was being played in the insides of the hotel, mostly at the sixth floor.

Fortunately and as expected, the little baby that is the real cause of this grand ceremony (aka, the governor's only son), had been successfully given a name.

Not to lie, it was quite a matured name for a cute baby of a caliber like him. Being the governor's son, a matured name, was a lot perfect for him.

Through the help of the MC, Logger Smith, the Governor's son was given a name and that was during the course of the ceremony.

However, the baby's new name happened to be;

'Drake Robert'.

His last name being his father's name made his name combination a lot awesome.

Despite the fact that his name was Drake, the high class social guests had preferred to call him 'Little baby Drake'.

The name granted to Drake which was actually a nice name, in regards to his original given name, was well appreciated and accepted by the high class social guests especially the female ones.

To add to it, the newly named baby became the centre of attraction to the high class social guests, mainly because of his majestic facial qualities.

At a very young age, only his face could charm a grown-up woman.

He was so damn cute that his name (little baby Drake) was what the social guests could remember.

Nevertheless, lady Sarah was a lot proud that her cute and beautiful son was the center of attraction, even for her female friends that had attended the ceremony.

She even felt an unexplicable pride that she had birthed such a child that resembled the beings of heaven.

Let's say that some high class social guests may have doubted that baby Drake was actually a normal human, cause, he was so damn extraordinary in every way.

Not leaving out Governor Leo who also seemed proud of having a son that was quite extraordinary.

Even his fellow politicians that had attended the ceremony, congratulated him on the birth and naming of his first child.

Towards the evening of the day, lady Sarah could be seen chatting excitedly with a few of her friends at a table.

She sat proudly amongst the other women at the table, a smile clothing her lips as she chatted happily with her friends.

Actually, she was just in her late thirties but still looked a lot younger.

The gathering of her friends seemed lively as they talked about random things that made them to enjoy each other's company.

As for the rest of the ceremony, most of the high class social guests were in groups, some eating, talking, having drinks and all other things that compromises of a grand ceremony.

Not long after, Lady Sarah excused herself from the gathering of friends and stood up.

She picked-up her purse that was of glittering diamonds and signaled to her friends that she would be back. Her friends waved back and continued their discussion amongst themselves, only this time without lady Sarah present.

After excusing herself, she headed for a hallway that was at the others side of the Grand hall.

She passed through a few tables and some other guests, to which she flashed a smile at each of them in greeting.

She also passed by some hotel staffs but in reverse, they bowed to her in greeting as she passed.

In no time, she was in a hallway that was outside the Grand hall.

Getting to the hallway, she headed for a huge Christmas tree by the corner and immediately came across five maids.

The five maids, dressed in similar uniform of blue and white, approached her from behind the Christmas tree.

One of the five maids was carrying a little baby in her arms which should be suspected to be little baby Drake.

Somehow, little baby Drake looked so calm and peaceful in the arms of the maid carrying him. It seems he's the not the type of baby that cry's a lot.

"Lady Sarah!! We're at your service!"

The maids immediately chorused bowing lowly except for the maid carrying little baby Drake, who only just dipped her head down a little. Actually, they were the newly named baby's caretakers.

They were assigned to take care of the baby during the naming ceremony, especially after the baby has been named.

"Good...." Lady Sarah said flatly, before continuing. "I want to assume that you have been taking care of my son very well all through the party".

"Yes we did, my Lady. He's been well fed and as you can see, he's having a sleep".

Ella, the maid carrying the baby answered in the stead of those with her.

"Is what she's saying true, Tessy?!"

Tessy, another maid with an average beautiful features was asked. She was the favourite maid of lady Sarah, because she was truthful, honest and trustworthy.

"Yes Lady Sarah. Your child was well taken care of".

Tessy had a confident smile as she answered.

Lady Sarah smirked menacingly. "In that case, it just crossed my mind that my baby needed a bath. I don't know whether you all could handle that".

"We could, lady Sarah".

Stella, a maid with a timid voice answered almost immediately.

Lady Sarah smiled as the maids nodded in agreement to the words of Stella.

"Okay then, if that's the case, you three would take care of that task while the two of you follow me".

Lady Sarah pointed at Stella, Ella and Tessy to handle the task she assigned then pointed at the rest two other maids to follow her.

"And also, you can use one of the suite's bathroom for bathing my child. I want him bathed and clean before we head back to the big mansion after the ceremony is over".

"Yes, my Lady!!"

The three maids who were assigned the task chorused.

Lady Sarah after assigning the task to the three maids, catwalked out of their presence with the other two maids following after her. Her red classy heels, making a noise that echoed in the hallway.

The three maids, once Lady Sarah was out of their presence, looked amongst each other and decided to find their way to a suitable suite that they would use for completing the task the Governor's wife assigned to them.

The three maids were Ella, Stella and Tessy.
