"you'll have to be careful, the Williams Manor is a dangerous place to live in". Henry warned Kim sternly. "Wait! You're not coming with me?". she asked, surprised."I have things to attend to, and I've never lived there since I was a kid". He confessed briefly."Huh!" Kim exclaimed. Surprised. No wonder she noticed the relationship between him and the family wasn't mutual. The enmity has been going on for a long time. She was then quiet and stared at him."Don't trust anyone, if any situation occurs report to me immediately, I'll send some of my maids with you, reject any offer from them regarding a personal servant from their Manor" He advised. Henry didn't live there, but he was familiar with the ways of the imperial mansion. Once they devise a plan to get rid of someone or something, they do it to the fullest. He was also afraid he wouldn't be there to protect Kimberly all the time, so she also needed to be strong and able to protect herself. He trusts her to it since she is clev
"A gay bar? What an outrageous place for a meeting." Henry said after Andrew had just informed him about Mr. Clinton's meeting invitation.An hour later, Henry, accompanied by Andrew walked inside the VIP room and already saw Elvis waiting for them."Mr. Williams, how nice it is to have you here." A handsome man in his mid-thirties beaconed."Mr. Elvis, it's nice to meet you again, What do I owe this invite?" Henry asked, sitting down. Mr. Elvis Clinton is a well-known business tycoon, he owns a gay bar, and literally, everyone assumes he's gay, He owns many stores in the city, and he uses the gay bar for private business meetings, only his close business partners are familiar with his strategy."Henry!, Henry, What else would make me invite you over here?" Elvis said, with a broad smile exposing his perfect dentition."What would two men be doing in a gay bar? Making love?" Henry mocked and smirked."Ha ha ha!!!, I never knew Henry Williams was this funny, you're unlike your brother
Henry saw the strippers Elvis had arranged for him. What can Elvis not do? Female strippers in a gay bar? They came out in unison, showing and displaying their curves. One of the women went as far as trying to approach Henry but Andrew stopped him. If the woman was to touch Henry, she wouldn't get a happy ending. Henry would kill her immediately. "Mr. Williams, you seem uninterested? Do these women not fit your taste? I can have them bring another for you." Elvis suggested. Earlier, when he had Leonard come, he was easily satisfied with the women he had arranged for him. But it seemed Henry wasn't."I don't need any of these sluts. I have my woman." He said."Really? I would love to meet her, when would you introduce us?.""I think that isn't necessary, since she isn't involved in our business discussion. Mr. Clinton." He said, matter-of-factly.They were still discussing when Elvis ordered them to lead the women out of the room. Andrew quickly approached Henry and whispered to his e
Henry's heart skipped when he heard the gunshot.For a moment he didn't think straight."Kim!, Kimberly!!." He yelled and tried going upstairs, where he heard the gunshot sound. But was restricted by the bodyguards. He quickly pushed one of them to the floor and gave him a punch. Leonard walked on the staircase slowly. He loved the pressure he puts his brother in and gave a satisfactory smile He loved that Henry was suffering. Now he can confirm that henry valued his little pet girl."Henry Williams, what an unpleasant surprise to see you in my mansion beating my bodyguards." Leonard said dramatically.Henry quickly moved towards him."Where is she? What did you do to her?."Leonard laughed out loudly and spoke calmly."Common, you've visited my mansion since a very long time, come have a sit." He beaconed in a friendly manner. But it wasn't really friendly, he was purposely trying to provoke Henry more.Henry ignored him."Not sitting? Then I'll just have to watch the show." A group
Leonard walked past Henry after seeing him do what he wanted. He enjoyed the fact that he had control of his obstinate and so-called powerful brother. Even if it was because of a woman. A sweet woman. He thought. Kimberly already caught his fancy even though she is his brother's woman, he had his eyes on heHis phone rang continuously while he was heading into the mansion.He picked it up. "Have you kidnapped the little boy?" He asked the person he was speaking with on the phone.The person gave a positive response. "Send me proof" he commanded.He went upstairs to see Kim.He had his maids give her a makeover. Although she was being defiant, she still let them do it when they pleaded. Leonard might kill them if she refused. "You look stunning" he complimented with a smile.Kimberly watched the maids leave with fearful looks in their eyes. It was obvious how deeply they feared this demon. Leonard."I'm taking you to see Henry, he'll ask you if we spent the night together, your respons
"Did she say anything?" Leonard asked his bodyguards who have been watching them through the CCTV."No boss. In fact, she did a wonderful job." He replied, giving Leonard a space to sit and check for himself. He still needs to watch and confirm it.His eyes were fixed on the screen as he watched them which had great interest. "Good!." He exclaimed. Kimberly didn't go against him. Of course, she didn't dare do it. Her brother's life is on the line.Moments later, Leonard entered the room and Kimberly jerked up from the bed immediately after she saw him approaching her."What would happen to my brother now?""Of course, he's still in my possession. What do you expect?.""Leonard you bastard, you promised to release him immediately I convinced Henry we slept together." She retorted. Leonard didn't keep his promise.Leonard loved how she was rebellious. She was obstinate and he enjoyed it. He is attracted to her stubbornness and audaciousness. He cupped her face in his palm gently and fo
The maids escorted her to the black Mercedes outside the mansion. Leonard was already waiting for her in the car. A few Bodyguards surrounded the car while she entered. She wondered why Leonard needed so much security as she saw them follow in another car.What else would he need them for if not for security? Besides Leonard being a crafty person, he must probably have so many enemies because of his personality. She thought.Leonard beaconed for her to move closer but she didn't bulge or try to do it. "You look pretty, hun." He complimented with a brief smile.Kim felt irritated, he had his eyes all over her which made her uncomfortable in the car. If it wasn't for Daniel, she would be doing this. Never. At least not with someone like Leonard, she admits Henry is much better. Even if he went as far as threatening her into signing the contract the other day, he still didn't use violence.Kim wondered if Henry was doing fine, he had so many bruises on his face when she saw him yesterda
"I've just bought this suit brother, I'll get really angry if you ruin it" Henry warned with a visible smirk on his face. He loved to see his brother pissed off. Still! Leonard didn't let go.Kim suddenly held Leonard's hand. She was the one who caused this, it's up to her to end it. "Please don't cause a scene." She said softly. Just to please him and make him calm. She hated the fact that she had to touch him and act as if she cares meanwhile she didn't. She just doesn't want to be tagged as a bitch who had two brothers fight over her. It'll be shameful for her.Henry was angry at the sight. Seeing Kimberly plead with Leonard, who she is now with. Angered him. How dare she do this even in his presence?"If it isn't Leonard and Henry Williams."A cold but charismatic voice spoke from the boutique's door.The attendants quickly composed themselves when they saw Elvis enter with his bodyguards.The boutique was one of Mrs. Elvis Clinton's numerous businesses in the city. He was passin

~ After Four Years~An elegantly dressed blonde-haired woman stood faced with two huge portraits hung on the walls in her master's bedroom. Kimberly stared at the gigantic portraits of Henry and David which she didn't get tired of staring at. she moved closer to them and touched one of Henrys'"Henry, I miss you so much," she confessed, hoping to get a reply. She roamed her fingers on the portrait, touching his face and lips.She managed to get a picture of a full full-face file of Henry's from the internet. During her time with him, she was able to take several unaware shots of him and his side profiles. Henry didn't like pictures, even when the press managed to get pictures of him, he had them destroyed.Kimberly smiled as she was reminded of that.She put her forehead on that of Henry's picture and closed her eyes. Kimberly couldn't help the tears that fell from her eyes.suddenly, the door was barged open by a little boy. "Mummy." he rushed in quickly and hugged her. Kimberly shif
Kimberly spent three more days in prison, there was no disturbance from Francis or torture from the policemen. Anthonia, her new cellmate made sure to protect her from her previous cellmates. Kimberly thought of ways to contact Grandma Lee's lawyer. He was the only person she hoped for. If Grandma could trust him with her documents, he must be able to get her out of prison. In the evening when the prisoners were in line for breakfast, Kimberly didn't go to get her food. She felt sick from what she ate for lunch. Anthonia stayed back with her."Ahhh." She cried painfully."What's wrong with you? Are you okay?.""No I'm not okay, my stomach hurts." Kimberly cried."Here, drink water." Anthonia offered."No, that's not it. My stomach hurts so much."Kimberly felt a warm wet liquid run through her thighs and she touched it. She was bleeding."My baby. I'm losing my baby." She cried out. Anthonia freaked out and she began to bang hard on the grate gate."Someone, we need help in here." Sh
Kimberly hoped that she wouldn't regret her actions. She spent two days in solitary confinement and wasn't given food to eat or water to drink. Kimberly had almost died from hunger. On the third day, she was taken back to her normal cell and was given food. That evening, Francis came to visit and request the papers again. Kimberly still stood her ground and refused to give it to him.Francis showed her some pictures on hon tablet. "I'm sure you wouldn't want your brother dead?." He asked her. Kimberly was shocked to see her brother in such a situation, he was all tied up and a gun was pointed at his head. In the video, David struggles to speak as his mouth was gagged.She couldn't hear a thing he said."Please don't hard my brother. I'll do anything you ask of me." She pleaded."Where are the goddamn papers?""I swear, I know nothing about them. I don't have any papers with me." She confessed.Kimberly was taken back to her cell, mistreated,d and beaten by the guards. Kimberly held
After everything was over, Leonard appeared in Henry's grave later that day.He was dressed in black as per funeral rights and he stood near the grave. Didn't attend the burial earlier that day, so he decided to pay his respect at that time. He was a bit drunk when he got there.He leaned down on the grave, staring at the tombstone of his half-brother seemed unbelievable to him. Even though he wanted Henry dead, he wanted Henry to die in his hands. Leonard felt that he lost to Henry, seeing him die in a plane crash."You're a coward, Henry. You're always fond of running away and not facing me. " He said,"We should've fought a lot more times. I owe you so much. Remember?" He lamented."I still have to pay you back for getting me locked up by my father. I deserve it. I have to shoot you with the bullets from my new gun." He explained.That same evening, Kimberly arrived at the graveyard to pay her last respects to Henry. As she saw the man on the grave, she quickly recognized him as Leo
Kimberly woke up after a few hours. According to Grandma Lee who was sitting beside her bed, she had passed out earlier and was brought to the hospital by granny with the help of some servants. Kimberly tried to stand up from bed."Henry, I need to find Henry. Grandma." She cried. "I cannot live without him." "Kimberly, get a hold of yourself. You should live well, if not for anyone but for your baby." "Grandma, it's hard for me to move on. Henry promised never to leave me. I told him I wouldn't leave." Kimberly couldn't control her tears as she spoke.Later that day, she was discharged from the hospital. Granny found out that Kimberly had no pregnancy complications as Henry had thought. The doctor in Germany lied to him. Granny didn't tell Kimberly anything and decided to investigate the issue. She found out that someone had the doctor manipulate the results to send Henry away. Henry's death had been plotted before now.Granny swore to get to the route of everything and find out w
When Kimberly opened her eyes she realized that she wasn't tied or blindfolded as she expected since they were kidnapped earlier. She looked around and saw that she was in a familiar place which she instantly recognized as the Williams mansion.She felt a throbbing headache hit her as she tried to stand up, they used so much drugs for her that she woke up late at night. "Henry?" She called out, staring at the masculine figure standing near the window. Henry wore only pants and was shirtless. Kimberly twitched her face irritably at the choking smell in the air. It was the smell of Henry's tobacco, clouding the air in the room.He put out the smoke, realizing that Kimberly didn't like it and he went to her.Kimberly was still confused by everything that happened. She realized where they were but wasn't aware of what happened after they were kidnapped which was the last scene she remembered before passing out.Henry sat behind her on the bed and patted her hair backward slowly. "How did
Kimberly stared at him for a moment, admiring his sincerity as he swore not to lose her. She grinned teasingly for putting him in a frenzied state."You sound so serious like any one of us is going to leave," Kim said and she wrapped her hands around his waist tightly. "I love you, Henry." She muttered, burying her face in his chest. "I love you too," Henry replied."Now, we should be heading inside. I think we've had enough of the wind for the night." Henry said and he carried her in bridal style inside their house. Kimberly giggled all the way Inside. "It tickles." She spoke in an almost faded voice.At the airport, Kimberly bid goodbye to David. It was a bit emotional for both siblings to separate from each other again. Knowing fully well that it may take long before they see each other again. After boarding the plane, Kimberly didn't hold back her tears and they streaked down uncontrollably on her face.Henry pulled her for a hug. "We would see him soon, Kim. And you both won't hav
Kimberly was discharged after three days and was placed under bed rest. Henry knew that they couldn't make a journey back to their country yet till she recovers so he brought a house in Germany for them to stay comfortably. He wouldn't want her using an elevator or feeling bothered to climb stairs so he bought a well-furnished bungalow."I feel like our life is peaceful living this way, Henry. Without anyone bothering us." Kim spoke. She snuggled herself into his arms on the bed and he held her tightly."Kim." He called out. "Yes?" She answered instantly, sniffing in his cologne that she couldn't get enough of. Kimberly had always loved the scent of Henry, and it seemed that it increased ever since she realized her pregnancy. She couldn't tell if it was her normal self or the change of hormones that made her love his scent more. But one thing she could tell was that Henry scents so well."I love you." He whispered. "I love you so much." He repeated and kissed her forehead."And our bab
