Chapter: Chapter 9It was a saturday evening. Rose was currently in her room, assisting Lex in his homework. "So, you just have to find the decimal point of the fraction and sum it all up. You do know how to convert a fraction to decimal, right?" "Yep" Lex grinned. Just then, her java phone rang. "Excuse me" Rose stood up and picked the phone on the bed. It was an unknown caller. Curious, she accepted the call. "Hello, who is this?" "Are you Annie Albert's sister?" a gruff voice rang from the other end. "How did you have my number?" Rose tone became stern. "Don't ask stupid question. Just know that we have your sister in our custody. If you care about her life, meet us up at the location i am going to text to you" "A note of warning, don't let a single soul learn of this. If i find out you informed the police.. hehehe" The caller hung up. Rose heart beat increased by a notch. Annie was in trouble! "Mum? are you okay?" Lex read Rose body language. 'Something's amiss' he thought."Have you do

Chapter: Chapter 8"Do you have an idea who attacked my family?" Rose asked after a few minutes of silence. Surprisingly, she digested the news quite well and didn't doubt Aunt Gloria one bit. Infact, she even found it strange. "None" Aunt Gloria sighed depressingly and cupped Rose cheeks. "I am so happy that you are alive. For years i blamed myself for abandoning you. When i went to get you back, the orphanage informed me of your adoption" "You were just trying to protect me" Rose didn't blame her either. And so, the trio began to converse speaking about old memories and cracking jokes. Rose enjoyed herself so much that she didn't even realize evening was already nigh. "Gosh! i have to go, my little boy is worried about me for sure" Rose jumped up after glancing at the time on her phone. "You have a child?" Aunt Gloria gasped in surprise. "Who's the father?" Stacie's eyes shone with curiosity. "Uhm.. maybe we can talk about this later?" Rose bit her lips akwardly as she made for the door.* *

Chapter: Chapter 7 Inside an Audi Q8, Lex and Mr. Dominic were in a heated discussion at the driver area. "You mean Samsara inc. has begun to make it's move?" Lex frowned, adjusting the tie on his school uniform. "Infact, all of the heirs are making their move. They wish to dominate the slots for sponsers" Mr. Dominic had a look of reverence when he spoke, picking one word bit by bit. He felt tremendous respect for the youth sitting with him. To be accomplished at such an ange, he was envious at this his superior's father. "A bunch of idiots, directly clinging onto the bait" Lex sneered. "Just as you anticipated" Mr. Dominic grinned. "Make a move, it's better we go along with the flow than to risk them growing suspicious" Lex instructed. "Yes sir!" Lex nodded and opened the door. He waltzed towards the bungalow and saw an extremely familiar figure standing at the porch. It was Rose. "Mum" Lex gave her a hug. "Still stressing Mr. Dominic eh?" Rose pulled his cheeks."He isn't bothered" Lex shru

Chapter: Chapter 6A black limo came to an halt at a beautiful looking bungalow. The doors sprang open, revealing Liam and Rex as they alighted. "The old master wants you to be at his residence at exactly 5:30pm" Butler Jeff said and drove off. Rex sighed as he stared at the familiar building. Whenever they visited D.C, this was their temporal lodge. "You go in first" Liam nudged at his son as he fetched out his phone. Groaning with dissatisfaction, Rex took large strides in. The interior of the bungalow boasted of an expensive decor. Italian tiles. Glittering chanderliners. Comfy couches and sofas. Everything looked normal just as he remembered. "Good afternoon young master" a butler walked out of the kitchen. Ignoring the butler, Rex walked towards his room, closing the door behind him. He sat comfortable behind the study desk and switched on the laptop. Inputing an URL link, a page appeared on the screen. It was the homepage of a database."LEX ALBERT" he typed a name. After a few minutes of

Chapter: Chapter 5Mrs. Albert and her husband were watching a family tv drama. It was approaching noon and Mr. Albert was starting to get hungry. "What's in for lunch?" he asked his wife. "What's in for lunch" Mrs. Albert mimicked. "Like you gave me money for groceries. Look don't disturb me okay? allow me to watch this show in peace" Mrs. Albert hissed, ignoring her husband who was tongue tied. Mr. Albert felt ashamed. His wife's words striking the deepest part of his heart, hurting his manly pride. Just then, the doorbell rang. "That must be Annie!" Mrs. Albert stood up excited as she raced for the door. However, on opening the door, she was tongue tied at whom she saw. Standing on the porch was Rose and Lex, with their baggages. "You.. how could you..?" Mrs. Albert almost had an heart attack, swiftly banging the door shut. Mr. Albert noticed her strange behaviour and walked over. "Who was that?" But Mrs. Albert was too shocked to reply him. She was still reeling from her shock.When Mr.

Chapter: Chapter 4"Angelo. Clear all my schedules tonight" Liam said, standing up from behind his desk. Time was already half past five pm. "Yes sir" Angelo obediently replied. Liam took the elevator. Very soon, he was already at the parking lot. He walked towards his latest Audi model vehicle and got in behind the wheels. He loved to drive by himself. Starting the ignition, he rode towards the enterance gate which automatically parted open, allowing him to officially hit the road. The road had scarce amount of vehicles, making the journey a smooth one. As Liam drove, he hummed to the song of a famous rnb singer Jace Capello, which was being played at a commercial. Although he always appeared to the public as a cold hearted man with no interest to any hobbies apart from hanging out with his son, he was secretly a music freak. Hiphop? rnb? pop? he could single a whole abulm quite fluently. Although he didn't have a grammy award winning voice, his voice wasn't awful sounding."Breaking news from
