Chapter 1
With His two hands readily jammed into his jean pocket, Charlie Smith thought disjointedly as he walked slowly and wearily climbed up the narrow outdoor staircase to Marwick Hospital.
It was a winter morning, and the weather was frigorific outside as it had been days before.
It was years since he’d left New York . . . and years since he’d seen his sister, Nelly! She was twenty-five now; but sadly after many years since he left the city of New York, and like a beautiful rose flower whittled like a skirt in a tarantella, she isn’t certain of her own fate anymore!
Their parents, though rich, famous and popular had died a long time ago in a ghastly motor accident few days after his court wedding. And now at this moment, the only family he had left in the entire universe is on a sick bed - terribly ill, very inactive, and fighting for her life!
The doctor handling Nelly’s health challenge, Doctor Novel Isaac, who happened to be the best in his own field, had phoned him few days back to fly over to New York, at least for the sake of Nelly, his sister, who was seriously sick and dying!
She had been diagnosed of liver cirrhosis, a disease which, though according to medical dictates, cannot be treated medically or operated on. So he had no one in the entire world except her, and the entire bill was to be shouldered by him.
Although prior to the unfortunate incidence their parents had left an enormous fortune, including stocks and bonds in one of the largest company in London metropolis.
However, Nelly had squandered her fortune; she had loss her inheritance to frivolous lifestyle and had nothing left anymore to face the uncertain, terrifying and the relentless challenges of her health issues.
Smith, nonetheless, had been a successful, international business tycoon! He was young and promising; an epitome of the riches, affluence and success wildly depicted in Forbes magazine!
He had spent seven years in Germany, running his business conglomerate alongside his foundation, The Dream Planet, whose primary aim was to fight social and economic discrimination!
It was one of the few things he did care about soul to soul: fighting for the interest of social justice and freedom for the weak, the needy, and the helpless which, according to his sense of judgment, were fundamental to human life and survival!
Indeed these were his concern and life; his true passion and essence for living!
While in Cambridge University, he had read criminology. Few years after his graduation in September 1996, he traveled down to Germany for his master’s and immediately after that, had started his own clothing line, a charity organization and had been in Germany ever since.
His mother, Ellen Patterson, the daughter of a famous politician in California who feel in love and got married to Charlie Walter Adlley in 1920, had noticed the kind-hearted nature of her son when he was young, and had loved him for that.
Helping homeless, helpless, and hurting people for Smith was his own idea of justice, freedom and equality! However, his father had always disapproved of his generosity.
Being his first child in a family of four, it made no sense to entrust his fortune to a child who gives generously without thinking! It could be a perverse way of running the family fortunes aground! And this lifestyle of helping had always irritated his father.
