JB stared at his wife who shrugged off her shoulders. "Don't worry about these two. They will be fine, bet me on it," Susan clicked her tongue in assurance while staring lovely at JB "I hope so, dad is becoming something else and Luke is not left out. It's like we are strangers to them now," JB said and returned his attention to his meal. Nothing will ever make him lose his appetite. Luke got to his room and sank onto his couch and palmed his face. His parents care about nothing else except themselves. He is forced to go ask them if they are his parents or if he was adopted but he is not the only one on this boat, Josh is in this with him. He can't get it. Even now that they are all grown-ups, his parents still did not care. "What a shame that you both are my parents," he muttered and a text came to his phone, it was from his informant."So from what I have gathered Grey returned home but there were some movements at the Coker's apartment which shows that some peopl
"So, where are we going?"Alex broke the silence, she felt they were taking too much time hugging and asking Josh that will remind him that they have got a place to go. "It's a surprise. So shall we?" He pulled away from the hug and took her hand and they went into the limousine that had been running, waiting for them. They settled comfortably and the driver kicked the engine and off they went. The limousine went cruising into the beautiful city of Miami. Alex loved what she was seeing and she was so much liking the feeling. It's the best feeling ever, to sit beside the one she loves and watch the city as beautiful as it is. The city was still keeping its spirit of Christmas, it was just 27 and Alex felt that her Christmas this year has been the best so far and with Josh, she would celebrate many more in peace. She entwined her hands with Josh's and put her head on his shoulder then sighed. For the first time since her parents died, she had the feeling it was going to
"Far away in the Bliss, when trouble arisesThe love that we shared will bind us, keeping us safe from troublesFamily is all that matters, getting each other's back when it matters mostNever forget that we are forever bound by love, never forget"He smiled when he was done playing his Melody. He and Alex made up the words and he skillfully converted them to tunes he played during his leisure time. Ander turned and left his room. He had gotten what he needed so going to the mansion was the next thing. He skipped to the living room and got his parents' picture frame and left immediately. Immediately he came out of the building and boarded the next cab that came his way, a guy came out of a corner and watched the cab as it disappeared. "Sir, it looks like the boy came for his guitar and his parents' picture frame. He has nothing else with him except those two things."He spoke through the intercom and whoever he spoke to acknowledged him and he ended the call and walked aw
"I really don't have anything to give and I am so sorry that I walked into your den. But you see this boy here," Ander said pointing to himself, "you need to let him go.""Y'all rich kids think we are fools. Can you hear yourself?" The guy who had spoken up earlier spat out angrily. "You are so selfish. You eat and expect us not to eat. We will do you nothing just to hold you against your will and get some cool cash from your rich parents," the guy further said like he was not angry a moment ago. "That will not be necessary. Ander gets over here, Let's go." They all turned, including Ander, to see a masked guy with his bike running. For the fact that the guy knew his name, he just had to trust him but what if he was an agent too but why would anyone want to kidnap him? If only they know he is just an orphan who has got only his sister to look after him. Ander moved to the masked guy before the guys could react, the guy handed him a helmet and sped off when Ander had settle
Three days ago, she was just a normal girl dating a rich dude but today, she is married to the brother of her ex and he is ready to pamper her silly. How does one's life change just in a second? The ship was twice her parents' apartment and menh! It was so beautiful. "Mr. Josh, are we going to ride on the yacht?" She asked excitedly. "No, we are going to sail on it," he replied. "Oh, that's great then. Please can we go now?" She begged, dragging him into the ocean but Josh did not let her drag him. His wife is really dumb. How can she drag him into an ocean, does she not know that they have to wait at the shore for the ship to arrive? "Alex, the yacht is coming to get us," he pointed out and Alex understood his reluctance. They waited until the ship sailed to the shore and the door was opened for the couple to enter. Josh grabbed his wife's hand and headed into the yacht. Left to her, she was going to mop around and the yacht would sail away without her knowledge.
Ander folded the paper and put it in the back of his jean pocket. Things are becoming clearer to him.Ander blamed himself for not getting to the guitar on time and for the box his father mentioned, it could be why his parents' apartment was turned upside down. He hoped that the box was still where his father mentioned it to be. Ander did not mind that he was almost kidnapped. He stood up and left his room. He was going back to the apartment. He needed to go check if the box was still there or if it had been taken away. He prayed that he gets to the box before someone else does because it seemed there was more about his life that he was not aware of. The moment he came out of the mansion he hailed a cab and jumped into it and the guy drove off. ************Jarden almost got to his penthouse when his alarm beeped again indicating Ander's moving out of the Bleak mansion. He cursed under his breath and reversed his power bike heading towards the directio
Ander stood staring at the hole dug in the back of the house with a blank expression. He was so sure that it was where the box was buried. He did not get to the box on time. He felt weakened that his parents' secrets had to be buried with them. It was unfair on his part. He blamed himself for not getting to the guitar on time. He knew the box was the reason the house was turned upside down. He turned slowly and met Senior Bleak staring at him. "Grandfather, good afternoon," he murmured. The old man saw the change in the young man's attitude. Ander was sad and he could guess why. The box mentioned in the note, he did not get to find it. Someone else had gotten to the box before him. When he saw the house the way it was scattered, he knew at once that someone had been there. "Let's go home boy. We will find the box and find your parents' killer"Senior Bleak said and Ander nodded. It was comforting to know that his sister's grandfather-in-law has taken up the role of a
Josh watched her boobs rise and fall and licked his lips, he could tell she was anxious and he loved the fact that she has no idea what his next move will be. He would want it to be like this always, to spice up her life daily. Josh grinned and fumbled her right boob while tasting the other one. Alex curled her toes as the sensation spread through her system. Josh pulled apart and stared at her eyes which were moisturized, he was satisfied by how her body was responding to his actions. He bent down and captured one of her boobs again while fumbling with the other one. Alex bit her lips trying to stiff her moans. She was afraid that the yacht crew might get to hear them. Josh was sucking her boobs turn by turn while mumbling how sweet Alex is. Alex could not hold her moans anymore and let them out. Josh smiled to himself, he knew she was not going to hold her moans for long. Hearing her moan turned him on and he could get contended just by hearing her moan. Alex held on t
31 December…. It was seven in the morning and Luke stood in the middle of his room staring at the fake will his lawyer had passed across to him not long ago. He had signed the document and told William of the latest development. William had told him to meet him right away. He pulled his jacket up and walked out of the room with the files in his hand. He walked past his grandfather without saying anything and continued walking down the stairs. Senior Bleak did not even mind and continued his way up the stairs. Luke walked to the box of keys and picked up Josh's car. He was not boarding any cab today. His car and that of Christy will arrive today unfailingly. He strolled outside and walked towards Josh's car, got in, and drove away. In less than twenty minutes, he was at William's hideout. He parked and walked in through the secret entrance. Getting inside, William was waiting for him. "That was so fast, you did what your father could not do in just a day. I am proud of you,"
Stacy Jackson stood shocked as her father handed her traveling documents and a permanent resident card for her sudden trip to Australia. He did not even allow her to come inside the house. "Dad, what is all this?" She asked in a high-pitched voice. "Young lady, don't raise your voice at me. You leaving GreyWave, it's what it is," he responded without any emotion in his voice. He had vowed in his heart that no daughter of his would be a nuisance and since Stacy couldn't stop being one in Greywave, it was better he sends her off to Australia to go live there. From now onwards she ceased to be a resident of GreyWave. Let him see how she will be running after Josh Bleak. "Dad, I don't understand what you are trying to do. I haven't done anything wrong. Why are you sending me to Australia to go and live?" She cried out. "You've done enough harm, Stacy. You're relocating to Australia and that is where you will live from now onwards. I don't want to see anything close to you her
Christy managed and stripped off her dress and went into the bathroom to freshen up. She did not take time, she came out as soon as she entered. One would actually think that she did not shower at all but the water drops on her body will change your mind. She put on a simple gown and went out of her room. Bobby and Gab with Mrs. Matilda sat at the dining table with Erica absent. Christy took a seat opposite her mother while Gab kept staring at her with a smirk on. She ignored him totally and forced her mind to focus on how to break the news to the family. Erica appeared a moment later and sat beside Christy and gave her a sweet smile. "You can as well put a smile on your face please," Erica whispered and Christy nodded. "Shall we eat now?" Bobby said, putting his phone inside his pocket. "Of Course, we should," Mrs. Matilda responded and asked Maria to dish out the food for them. Lunch was off Black Pudding; a meal made from blood sausage of animals, cerea
James drove into the National park and parked and then looked at Alex. She had gone back to being gloomy and he was not quite happy about it. "We are here, do you need any special thing you want me to do for you?" Alex smiled at him and got her purse."Not really, I will help myself through," she said and got down and started walking towards the park restaurant. A man with a black hood on stood in the opposite direction and pretended to be getting a ticket when Alex walked past him. Alex felt some chill down her spine when she passed the guy but continued walking into the restaurants regardless. The national park was filled with brims because of the holiday Families were soon having fun together.The national park was built in a way that it had everything starting from the Kiddies' arena to the adult arena, lodge, and eatery too.Alex got into the restaurant and ordered wine and chips. She wasn't there to eat but to have some time to herself but on second thought, she
Josh walked into Senior Bleak's study and found his grandfather bent on something. "Grandfather, you send for me," he said and Senior Bleak looked up at him. "Yes, I did. Get your father for me," Senior said and waved him off. Josh turned and left. Getting to his father's room, he saw him pacing around with his mom under the duvet. The atmosphere was a bit tense. "Father, Grandfather wants to see you," he said to his father and made to leave but his father's words stopped. "I heard you both are getting a divorce?""Yes, we are," Josh responded and waited to hear his father lash at him but JB did the opposite, he shrugged his shoulders. "Do what you think is the best," JB said and Josh was shocked by his father's reaction. This was unlike him. Things were going at a fast pace and he was just realizing it. Ever since the truth was out, relationships began to break. Susan glared at her husband and threw her face away. Instead of asking Josh why, he was telling Josh
Josh was beyond reasoning. He could not hold himself anymore. The man standing in his front used to ask questions before dishing out blames but since he found his grandkids, he changed, it just has to be about them. Josh felt he was no longer his grandfather who nurtured and loved him. "I see where this is coming from. Alex was right. When you are done with your nonsense, meet me in the study, and as for the divorce, I will make sure it happens because I am the reason you both got married in the first place," Senior Bleak said and walked out of his grandson's room "The young man's sense of reasoning had been clouded with jealousy. A man that is jealous of his wife is not fit to remain married to her," Senior Bleak concluded.Josh kicked the bed and raced down everything on Alex's dressing table. This was more than he could take. It had always been him and no one else, he should better go back to the old Josh. The one who didn't care about love. His holidays were over fo
Alex stood outside the door and let her tears flow. She stared at her wedding finger, her ring was not gone. She had returned it to the man who gave it to her. The man who had openly loved her for five days, the man who had suddenly lost interest in her because he figured that she belonged to the top and was threatened by it and that maybe, she would be chosen over him. Someone who claims to love you would not stop loving you because a table has been turned around in your life. That's what with the rich dudes, they want a trophy wife and once they realize that you wouldn't be or there was every tendency you will be richer than them, they will oppress you to the extent that your sanity will be forever gone from you. For a moment, Alex thought things would be fine but finding who she was had taken more happiness than it had given but no matter how hard it was for her to forget what had just happened, she would forget eventually. She thought of taking a vacation but decide
The Devon family members sat round the dining table as they had lunch. It was not lunch time but Mr. Devon insisted because of Ander. Ander had seen more than he expected. The whole family was hell-bent on making him happy and as well making him feel at home. Devon was definitely planning something big for Alex and Ander but he was the only one aware of it. He wanted to take his family by surprise. The lunch was over and they left the dining room one after the other to the living room. "So Ander, I was thinking if you should live here but if you choose to live at the other place, it's your choice," Henry said and looked at his father. Ander hasn't really thought about coming in to live at the Devon's Mansion. He had gotten used to his maternal home. "It does not necessarily mean I have to stay here permanently. I could live where I want," Ander said, looking from one person to another. "You are right. You have options to choose from. I am just trying to tell you th
"Can I ask you for a favor?" She asked, looking so humble, she just had to be that way so that he could grant her the request. "What favor?""Can I take a selfie with you?" Adeana asked."Sure, you can."Josh gave her permission and she took a couple of selfies. After that, she pecked him on the cheek and stepped down. "Thanks for today," she waved at Josh, Josh nodded and drove away. Josh left and the smile on her face got replaced with a smirk. "Men like you are easy to trick, you have trusted me so much that you told me your little secret. I don't mean bad, just that I am beginning to like you," she murmured and walked towards her apartment. Josh could not stop thinking about what Adeana said. He just realized that he couldn't vouch for his wife because he didn't know her that much. "What if Adeana was right?" He kept asking. Something at the back of his mind told him that she might be right. If Alex could not deny it then there was definitely something and th
