Chapter 46: "if so, I don't want to see you five feet close to mother."

Brittany paid all of her debts, sold her properties including houses, villas, and cars, and took loans from illegal loan sharks as commercial banks refused her loans.

She rented a rundown apartment in the outskirts of the suburbs, living a lowkey lifestyle while hiding from the loan sharks. She lived without peace of mind, changing her location repeatedly.

She had severe selective memory loss and all the wrongs she had done to Ruben and Tess vanished. Her memory degraded to that time twenty years ago when she met Ruben under the trees.

The doctor speculated it was a trauma response as a result of not being able to face Ruben with the heinous things she had done to him, so she had the bodily awareness and was familiar with him, and their interaction over the years but that was all, nothing about Luke, the hospital or if there was an accomplice.

Ruben had her under his watch and the ghost bodyguards were ordered t

    Chapter 47: He thought– He really is my son. Luuk stopped in his steps. He turned back, gazing calmly at Liam. Liam paced towards Luuk and stopped when they were six feet apart. Suddenly, he fell on his knees in a kowtow, his forehead graced the cold floor. "Please take me in as your disciple." "Huh? Is he serious? The proudest employee in De Vries Liam said this in front of the whole crowd? I must be hallucinating." "I understand him, I heard over the last few weeks, Mr Luuk got several job offers to tutor the sons of influential people, even the president of the nation but they were all rejected before they even got to his desk." "We are so lucky to be under Mr Luuk, my skills have improved in such a short duration." "Ha! Serves him right, he had been slapped across the face by his arrogance and now his knees got weak in front of the real king. I look forward to how this plays out." In contrast to the crowds' chatty mouths, Luuk gazed calmly at Liam, a glint flashed past his e

    Chapter 48: "What plans do you have with mother?" "What do you lots want?" Tess asked as she leaned lazily against the door frame. "Mother, I want to watch a movie." Luuk raised the bag of snacks above his head with a bright smile evident on his face. Tess's heart softened and her mouth watered at the large sized bag of snacks. A tempting sight. She turned to Ruben and Luuk with an eyebrow raised as if asking them to impress her. Ruben tried to speak but swallowed his words as Luuk cleared his throat threateningly. "I want to discuss creating your professional web profile since you decided to stay in the Netherlands for a while." Luuk blurted out, he could not think of a way to please Tess. Tess yawned lazily, moving her fingers in a cool fashion she beckoned to Luke," Come in, every other person should go play with themselves."Luke grinned gingerly, strotting into Tess's room with the bag of snacks, his winning card. He stuck out his tongue at the boring father and son duo as

    Chapter 49: "Since when was my personal affairs a topic of discussion?" "Yes, we are back together." Ruben confirmed his thoughts. Thomas's eyes brimmed with uncanny happiness. Being by Ruben's side all through the years, He could tell how Ruben's temperament evolved over the last few years. His might and ruthlessness dwindled. Like losing a person to defend with his whole life. He lost his purpose but pretended like it was all good and was in denial of his feelings. Ruben could tell Thomas's thoughts. He hung his head low, reprimanding himself for having a shred of doubt about Thomas's sincerity. They were literally brothers from different parents. "That's enough, we should have breakfast and head for breakfast." Ruben spoke, clearing the stuffy air. Luuk's eyes lingered around Thomas, in deep thoughts. He had mild interactions with Thomas but he could tell he was a person with a good heart. He dismissed his doubts and followed them to the dining area where a warm breakfast was w

"That wench abandoned your child, how do you expect to welcome her into the family?" Ruben’s Uncle flared up in anger, letting his raging emotions get the best of him. He stood up from his seat, pointing his fingers angrily at Ruben. Ruben stopped in his steps. He turned back and chuckled. A savagery smirk laced his lips and his frosty eyes were devoid of warmth. "It seems to me like my authority in this house has long been forgotten." His dead drop tone awoke fear in everyone. Cold sweat laced their foreheads. "You aren't permitted to attend beneficial Family events anymore. Breaching of this order would lead to expulsion from the family tree." "Y-You wouldn't dare!" "Have you forgotten the family's seal resides in my possession? My words are authority. Keep acting up and you will be expelled from the family." Ruben threaten

    Chapter 51: "Or… do you want me to be here for other reasons?""Warm milk and chocolate." Ruben nudged the glass up to the height of the bridge of his nose. Tess's ear piqued, she glanced at his reflection in the mirror, narrowing her eyes as if contemplating whether to fall for his seduction. A sexy muscular man with a glass of warm milk and chocolate bars, two smexy snacks. Her mouth watered. She grew embarrassed of her own thoughts and shook her head slightly. In her careless action, the hot iron of the dryer grazed her fingers, her skin burned red. "Ah" She flinched from pain, dropping the dryer. Ruben panicked, he dropped the tray containing the glass of milk and chocolate on a stool nearby, reaching forward to grab Tess's hurt hand.Tess shivered from his cold touch. Her moist eyes looked up to him. His face was scrunched up in worry. "Are you okay? Does it hurt?" Ruben asked frantically. Tess withdrew her hands shyly, "I'm fine." she muttered. Ruben wasn't convinced. He p

    Chapter 52: " Tess, my inner child feels safe with you…don't leave me.""Err- what? No, get out." Tess's entire face turned tomato red. Ruben laughed at her reaction, teasing her was so much fun. This was what he envisioned a life with her would be like ten years ago. His mind drifted to that day when he heard Tess hated him so much she dumped the low quality gold chain he bought for her on her birthday which was the night Jullian left the country. He wanted to ask about that for so long but he held back. He wasn't one to be easily convinced but the person that told him Tess hated his poor background came with evidence, a voice recording of Tess admitting to hate people from poor backgrounds. That day, his heart sank to the bottom, like the depth of the ocean. Until he personally witnessed Tess disposing his gift like it was garbage. He picked the necklace he worked multiple part time jobs to buy from the trash and walked home, alone, with his heart bleeding, in the rain. Tess's 'pr

Ruben lifted her off the ground in a strong grip, he made his way towards the bed in the inner corner of the room. He placed Tess on the bed, his hands worked its way to the ropes holding her robe together. He tugged at it in a single move and it came loose. Exposing her half naked body. As Tess had just taken a shower, her milk white skin shone, and her chest was bare without any cover. She had a red panty on, a flower shaped fabric covering her nether regions. A very seductive piece. "Did you wear this for me?... You were expecting my arrival?" Ruben asked. His foxy eyes glistened and a smirk lingered on his wild red lips. He looked extra alluring. Tess's face burned red. She turned her head to the other side, avoiding his provocative gaze. She bit her lips and nodded slowly, confirming Ruben's thoughts. "Luke that snitch -

    chapter 54: "I've traveled to so many beautiful places around the world but no place compares to the space you exist in." Ruben and Tess fell asleep quickly in each other's arms, easily forgetting the twins. Luuk got whiff of the news of Ruben on Tess's room. He prepared dinner for hkmself and Luke but was grumpy throughout, blaming Luke for letting Ruben in. Of course, Luke avoided mentioning the part where Ruben bribed him. He couldn't ascertain he would be safe if Luuk learnt that part of the story. Luuk had recently busied himself. School was out of question as he held several college degrees in the US, collected out of boredom and Tess's persuasion. His uncanny intelligence was kept a top secret for security reasons though the big organizations knew of the emergence of the little genius and protected him, providing him with scholarly gifts to curry favor from him and to win him over to their sides.Luuk was unfazed towards the private or government organizations, he kept all of

Although Ruben had tried to stop her from watching the video that exposed Elaine's crimes, Tess couldn’t resist. She had to watch it, to fuel her anger so she doesn’t go easy on Elaine and to discern if it was all real or the universe was playing with her head. It worked, she was ridiculed with unfathomable rage and her heart was ripped into shreds.Her father’s last moments were filled with pain and heartbreaks, some of which she contributed to. The guilt still ate at her heart. Tess was basked in guilt weighing heavily on her shoulders, Elaine was welcomed into their home because of her obvious longing and desire for maternal love even though her father tried his best in raising her.She thought, perhaps if she had handled things differently, her father wouldn’t have die

Regal couldn’t utter a word, so did Ruben.“How ?” Regal finally said the words biting at his throat for so long.“I’ll explain later.” Tess held Luuk tighter. “Until then,” she faced Thomas. “You must pay for messing with my family.” Since Ruben was present, Tess had no reason to hold back anymore.“Tch, seems you weren’t listening at all, in here, I hold the ultimate power.”“Than the Avis?”“Than the Av- what?!” Thomas looked around in confusion.

He surfaced in the underworld a few years ago and do you know the first thing he did? He got rid of all of his relatives and thereafter claimed the urchins. It was a bloodbath.”“Do you know his history?”“Quite a bit. He originated from a small village in the underworld, ridiculed with sudden famine and drought due to change in weather, people died like chickens. This led to an increase in crime rates. The government saw this as an opportunity to buy children from the underworld at cheap rates for experimental purposes. Families resorted to selling their children. Birth rate increased and the rate of emigration increased. The balance was thrown off. I heard he was one of the unfortunate children sold off.”Aiden paused and continued in a quiet voice. “Midway through the journey, an accident of unknown causes happened, it
