Chapter 10: A surprise

Derek stormed out of his office, leaving his secretary with a clear instruction. “I’ll be back before you know it; take care of the office until I return,” he said, his face reddening with rage.

He had never been so flustered by someone. The encounter had left him seething. Outside, his car waited, his driver patiently sitting in the driver’s seat.

Derek yanked the front door open and barked a single command: “Get out, I’ll drive myself!” His eyes still blazed with anger, intimidating the now-terrified driver.

Without hesitation, the driver leapt out of the driver’s seat and bowed his head in respect. Derek ignored the gesture, his focus solely on his mission. “I’ll call you when I need you,” he said curtly, before speeding off.

The driver bowed again, watching as his boss disappeared into the distance.

As Derek navigated the bustling streets of NYC, Rose’s threat echoed in his mind. “How could she?” he seethed, slamming his head against the steering wheel. His

    Chapter 11: She’s back“Wait! Do you really mean what you just said?” Sofia threw at her husband, her face narrating shock. She clutched her body, her legs shaking with a sense of dread. Her face was etched with horror and shock, and her mouth was sealed with panic. Her long, flowy hair was scattered all over her face as she settled on the couch, and her face was a total mess.“What are we going to do? This might be the end of us,” she suddenly turned to Derek and said. Derek stared at her speechlessly. He knew that informing his wife about Rose’s return would put her in an uncomfortable mood, but he never thought it would make a great mess of her.“Put yourself together,” he heard himself screaming at his wife. He was obviously filled with anger by her attitude. He watched as she stood up from the couch and rushed to him like an angry dog. “Put myself together? Are you crazy?" she barked in his face, her eyes still settled with horror.“How am I supposed to put myself together?”

    Chapter 12: A Meeting The ringing of the doorbell snatched Rose from her sleep. She rose up from the couch on which she had slept and sat up. She used her hand to rub her sleepy eyes and yawned out loud. “Gosh!” she muttered, still rubbing her eyes. “How long have I been sleeping?” she said, fixing her eyes on the wall clock, and her eyes flew open. “Darn! I slept for 3 hours?” She gasped in shock and stood up from the couch. “It’s exactly 5:20,” she suddenly realized. The kids should have been back by now, but they weren’t. As she stood there, she wondered what could be keeping them in school when the doorbell rang again. She didn’t realize the doorbell had rung before, even though it was the sound that woke her from her sleep. She was too asleep then to realize it. But now that her eyes were beginning to clear, and she was more aware of her surroundings, she heard it this time around.“It must be them,” she giggled, rushing off to the door. As she got to the door, she stared

    Chapter 13: Bad NewsAs Derek’s driver pulled up in front of a massive mansion. Derek walked out of his car after gathering his important files and phone. He stood In front of the massive mansion and breathed out, as if he was trying to catch his breath.His eyes scanned the peculiar building, as it beauty shone forth. It was a three-story building, a type you would barely come across. It was built with the most expensive materials gathered from around the world; its architecture was top-notch, and the color complemented the entire building. It was painted a bright milk color.Huge trees surrounded the building, giving it a relaxing view. Benches were positioned under each tree, inviting visitors to sit and enjoy the view while the breeze from the trees swept through their faces.“Sir Derek,” Derek suddenly heard behind him, and he was forced to look back only to see his grandfather messenger.“Your grandfather asked me to bring you in; please, can you come with me?” The messenger b

She seemed to be making a call as she headed to one of the parlour couches and sat down.“Oh, come on! I know what I’m doing,” she giggled into the phone. “You know, I’m so happy. Things are finally going our way,” she continued, her face etched with joy.“How much longer do I need to wait?” the receiver questioned, and Sofia giggled.“Soon, baby, in no time, we will have victory,” Sofia smiled, her heart laced with joy.“You know, I just can’t wait for all this to be over. I’m seriously sick and tired already,” the voice from the other end said.“I know, right? Don’t worry, everything will soon be over, so just hang in there for a while,” Sofia replied.“Right? So, how are things going in your own part?” Sofia chuckled.“Things are going really great, baby girl. Like, I’m literally having the upper hand in everything,” the receiver replied.“Oh, I see.

This would have really gone a long way in helping me,” the man smiled at his messenger and tapped him on the back.The messenger returned the smile, feeling proud of himself. “I only got to find out about this this morning,” he chuckled to his boss, who gave him a weird look.“You only got to find out about it this morning?” his boss threw at him, and he nodded.“How did you find out about it?” his boss questioned further, a hint of curiosity in his voice.“It was sent to me by an unknown person who said they wanted to help you deal with Rose,” he replied to his boss.“Uhmm! This sounds interesting. So the person didn’t reveal their identity; it’s unknown?” the boss stuttered out, and his messenger nodded in confirmation.“Okay, then. Thank you, buddy. I think I n

I really enjoyed your company today," Rose smiled and bowed her head In respect.“Oh, come on, Rose,” Mr. Reynolds smiled back. “It’s nothing, and I really wish to see you soon. When are you resuming work?”“Well, Monday will be fine, since it’s already Friday. I need to get myself ready,” Rose smiled.“You know, I’m missing you already.

    Chapter 17: I need to be sure Derek paced up and down the opulent room, his eyes fixed on a picture resting in his hands. “So Rose has kids?” he muttered, his eyes still locked on the picture of the twins. It still seemed like a dream to him.“How could she have kids already? And why don’t I know about this?” he exclaimed, still in disbelief. “It’s not even on any of her social media accounts.” He remembered the day he went through her social media account, the day she revealed herself, but there was nothing about the kids. Not even a single hint could inform him that she had kids.“Why is she hiding the kids?” Something seemed off about the way she was hiding the kids from the world, but he just couldn't place what exactly was off.“He hasn’t even seen a picture of her husband,” he suddenly realized, clicking his tongue as his thoughts drove deeper. “If Rose isn’t remarried, then how did she have kids? Or did she give birth out of wedlock? Was that the reason she was hiding the k

The kids were dressed to go to school, and Rose was dressed to go to work.She opened the back seat for the kids, and they got in. She helped them wear their seatbelts once they were seated. “You guys are good, right?” She smiled at the kids before going to the driver’s seat.She pulled out of the garage after fixing her seatbelt. She watched as the gateman pulled the gate open, and as soon as he did, she drove out of the compound after passing a command to him. ”Take good care of the house while I’m away,” she muttered, and the man nodded.She smiled and rolled up the window before driving out of the compound. “Mummy, can you play us a song?” Ken pouted, pulling out a cute face.“You don’t always have to do that,” Rose giggled at his silliness. “You know I’ll always play a song for you, even without you being all cute,” sh

How are they brothers? They…” Rose stuttered weakly; everything was just too much to process.“I think you have said enough,” Derek snatched the phone from Kendell, realizing all the secrets Kendell was spilling was too much for Rose to handle.“Your mom is currently at the hospital, so I do

He fell short of breath and started coughing like he was fighting for his life.“Ken!” Kendell and Derek yelled out his name. Derek held him and tried to find out what was going on. A few officers surrounded them, while the rest focused on Dave and Anna.Derek watched helplessly as his son took a deep breath and collapsed in his arms. “Ken!” he shouted, and shook him, but there was no response.“Dad, please let’s take him to the hospital, we need to take him to the hospital,” Kendell stammered, already in tears. She shook like a leaf as she spoke. She couldn’t bear the thought of losing her brother.“Quick! Open the door to the back car,” Derek shouted, and one of the officers did as he said.

How could he be so mean as not to include my name in his will?” He laughed again. Derek watched as his brother spilled more secrets, but he just couldn’t bring himself to believe that his brother had actually killed his father. “How the heck are you responsible for Father’s death, you asshole?” he stuttered and watched as his brother released an evil laughte

The kids, on the other hand, jubilated, jumping up and down and screaming to alert the police officers that they were still stuck in the car.“Can you two shut the fuck up, or I will put a bullet through your tiny brains?” Dave yelled at them. He was already swimming in confusion; he was looking for a way to escape the police, and this was making matters worse.“But how the heck did they discover our location? Did you make any calls? Or anything at all?” Anna said in panic, and that was when he remembered that he called his brother Derek.“That asshole!” he yelled and hit the steering wheel of his car. “That idiot betrayed me again,” he lamented.“That idiot?

Is he around here, or are we taking the kids to him?” Derek questioned, already untying them.“He said he’s by the roadside, so definitely, when we drive out, we will see him,” Anna replied, helping to untie Ken while Derek continued untying Kendell, who was already begging now.“Uncle Dave, please don’t sell us. I’m sorry for being rude to you; please have mercy and don’t sell us away. If you do, it’s going to break my mom’s heart,” she pleaded, tears already falling from her innocent eyes.By this time, Ken was already awake and hearing his sister’s words; his heart flew into high speed. “Sell us? He wants to sell us?” He turned to his sister, panting, and his ears itched for a response. He watched as his sister nodded positively before responding.“Yes, Ken, this wicked man wants to sell us,” he watched as his sis

This can’t be true,” she shoved her instincts off. “I will just call Sofia; I am sure there is a misunderstanding somewhere,” she quickly dialed Sofia’s number and waited for her to pick up the call.“Why isn’t she picking up?” she muttered in frustration when the call ended and Sofia didn’t pick up. “You better pick up this time around,” she mumbled as she called Sofia again.“Huh! Why isn’t she picking up her calls? Is she doing this to piss me off? No! She can’t do that,” she dialed Sofia’s number again and prayed she would pick up this time around, but sadly, there was still no response.“Okay, this is becoming alarming. Sofia never plays deaf ears to her calls, except she’s in a situation or asleep,” Rose wondered. She just couldn’t fathom the reason Sofia wasn’t picking up. She was slowly becoming worried as she couldn’t think of a solid reason why Sofia wasn’t picking up her call.“Or should I go to her house?” she wondered, but she aborted th

Did I just hear you say something about the kids?” Derek heard behind him, and turning around with full force, his eyes met Rose’s.“Did I just hear you say something about the kids?” Rose repeated, her eyes still fixed on Derek; they were demanding an urgent reply as they stayed on him. She was still wearing her hospital dress and holding onto a walker, which she used to support herself while walking around.“When did you get here, Rose? I left you sleeping in your ward,” Derek stuttered, wondering when and how Rose could be there immediately.“I wasn’t sleeping, Derek; I heard everything you said over the phone and decided to follow you to find out who was really calling,” Rose mumbled weakly.“I just wanted

She had asked Dave this question so many times and couldn’t stop asking him. Everything felt like a dream to her; it was really hard for her to process the fact that her Uncle Dave could do this to her.“Oh, my dear darling Kendall,” Dave laughed and bent to her level, cupping her cheeks and looking into her eyes.

Is your mouth broken, that you cannot speak?” he said after minutes of the caller being mute. “I can see you are a mad man,” he fired, wanting to end the call before the caller spoke.“Hello, my dear, how have you been?” a muscular voice said from the other end, and Derek’s anger deepened. He was annoyed by the caller’s guts.“Are you mad, or are you just pretending to be? You called someone, and you can’t even introduce yourself. Are you insane? Who calls a number for the first tim
