As soon as dinner was over, Fabiola quickly excused herself, with the pretext that she was feeling dizzy.

Mrs White did comment on the fact that it was only a few minutes past 8pm, probably still too early to be sleepy. But Fabiola insisted that she was tired from working all day.

Brant opted to drive her home, she agreed.

He thought that her reason for rushing home was because she wanted to get away from his parents.

Grandmaster thought the same too, he smiled watching the images slide through the screen…video footage actually.

He smiled, at least she was scared…probably, it was good, that way it'll only ignite the burning desire for revenge in her.

"Do you want me to stick around here a bit?" Brant asked when he pulled up outside her house.

She looked at him with a serious look, "I don't need a babysitter, you should go and do that to your sisters." She stated, climbing out of the car without even turning to view the petrified look on Brantley's face.

"Oh, good night by the way." She

    "Here I thought I was supposed to be the one running late." Brant said as soon as Linda walked in. He'd arrived earlier and booked a private lounge for them to talk."Sorry but I came on foot." Linda defended.She made herself comfortable opposite him, picking up an already filled glass of red champagne."Ok, so where do we start?" Brant asked."Ok, it might not be much, but I think that it is something." She adjusted herself on her seat. " I managed to talk to my dad right? Since technically, I used his interest in partnering with you to raise the topic about Uncle Melo and during the discussion, he talked about how Uncle Melo had good business ideas that never materialized in time because a bunch of people did not stand with him…" she narrated.Brant leaned back in his seat, sipping his champagne. He was in no hurry, he let the captivating taste roll along his tongue and down to his palate, all the while paying one hundred percent attention to Linda.".... and so I asked about any o

    "Do you have any idea how much you drive me crazy? I just could not stop thinking about you throughout the day." He whispered, crashing his lips on hers without any warning.Ignoring her surroundings, she reciprocated his kiss.He grabbed her butt and squeezed it, bringing her body closer to his as he deepened the kiss.They stood there, leaning on the bar rails and kissed for about a minute before she placed her hand on his hard chest and gently pushed him back, creating some distance between their bodies."I gotta go." She whispered breathlessly.He nodded, held her hand and guided her to where Monty was."Good evening boss, reporting for duty, sorry that I am late." She put on a serious face as she spoke to Monty.Frost made himself comfortable on the long couch. She remained standing.Monty was staring at her with undisguised disgust."Come with me," he ordered in a deep voice, standing up on his feet.She glanced at Frost for a second, he nodded, "I'll wait for you here."

    "Ok, you would train my women, but in the meantime, you would be my personal bodyguard." He announced.Her eyes shot up, if the room had just a little bit more lighting, her beam would have definitely been unconcealed."You would be stationed outside that door and make sure no one comes in unless I ask you to let them in." He said;' That's it? I'm a stationary bodyguard?' she yelled mentally in disbelief, ' What does he take me for, a royal palace guard or something?' she frowned."You'll report here every weekend at 8:30pm." He added.Only on weekends?" She asked, concealing her disappointment. She was hoping that he'll ask her to hang out with him on his expeditions, that way, even if she does not know his face or identity, staying that close to him would give her a window to pick up something unique and substantial about him."Yes Phoebe, If you want to work on weekdays you can…." He started."No need, I'm fine with weekends." She cut him off."Monty would tell you about the stru

    ** WARNING **MATURED CONTENTFabiola guilty waved her hands through her disheveled hair, straightening the rumpled strands."Good evening Mrs Peabody." Frost greeted the elderly woman who joined them in the elevator."Oh, Gerald, how was your day?" She asked with a smile. "It was cool Mrs Peabody," He replied politely."Greetings ma'am." Fabiola greeted politely. She stole a glance at Frost. 'So his name is Gerald huh?' she asked herself, smiling mischievously.He narrowed his eyes down at her."How are you, child?" Mrs Peabody was Frost's flat mate."I'm doing fine ma'am, and you?" Fabiola asked in return.They both stood behind Mrs Peabody, that way, Mr Frost's hard-on was not noticeable to the old Lady."Oh, I'm doing perfectly ok, I came downstairs to meet Gaëlle, she gave me a manicure for free." The old lady announced with glee, showing her freshly painted nails to the couple."It is so beautiful, wow!" Fabiola was the one to compliment her, while leaning down to inspect her

    "Hmm, I love mysteries, but give me something." He pressed;"Ok…" she tapped her chin, pretending to be in deep thought, "I'll tell you my birth name, and you'll figure out the name I go with now." She said;He raised his brows. "Ok, bring it on."My birth name was Phoebe Guantaloup, well, that is what I was told. But I don't remember myself ever being addressed by that name. And I tried to find anything about me, you know? But it is like that person never existed. The only version I know about myself is the version I remember living, nothing more nothing less." She dropped her face and narrated sorrowfully.She was versed with men always wanting to see a woman as weak and pitiful, she knew just the right buttons to press."Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. Who revealed your birth name to you?" He asked, raising himself on one arm resting on the soft pillow.Her story piqued his interest.She could easily detect the curiosity on his face, she smiled internally."Oh, it was the sister suprem

    "Where the hell are you coming from at this time of the night?" Brant raised himself from the wall he was leaning on, almost invisible on her porch. He stepped into the light.She halted abruptly, she was not expecting anyone to be by her doorstep waiting for her at this time of the night."Jeez Brantley, what the fuck are you doing here?" She took a deep breath and asked, as though he did not scare the dead devil out of her ass."I came to see you, isn't it obvious?" He asked, taking a step forward towards her. She could see a shallow frown on his forehead."Where are you coming from this late?" He asked again."You are not my father or husband that I have to answer to you how I spend my time, and you have no damn right to show up at my house any fuck'in time." She ground her teeth, pushed past him and proceeded to open her door.He stayed silent, observing her with a frown. She smelled different, masculine maybe."Whatever it was that carried you here today, it can still wait till

    She quickly opened her closet, pulling a particular silver cloth hanger, revealing another wall packed with ammunition. Unfortunately, the wall was pretty narrow to serve as a hideout.She knew that Brant would probably have an agape look right now, but she did not care. She could not carry much either, she got her favorite automatic rifle and a smart watch.She grabbed her pistol and knife from under her pillow and quickly stuck it in her waist band."Who are those people?" Brant asked.She ignored his question.She pulled a little wood carved porcupine resting on her bedside cupboard, the bed automatically raised itself to reveal a shining five step ladder."Holy shit! Who are you?" Brant asked in disbelief."Get in, quick!" She hurried him. She could get the steady stamping of heavy boots gradually approaching the door.Good thing Brant did not argue.There was a hard push at the door, he heard it too, because he hastened his pace. She followed suit. She literally jumped down, t

    "Grenade!" She heard one guy announce, that was the second voice she was getting, and it certainly wasn't Monty's.She was right, there were more than just two of them.She waited for it to explode, but instead, she heard something drop a few centimeters from her feet…Her eyes bulged open, her life flashed before her eyes, adrenaline overtook her."Fuccckkkk!!!" She cursed, it was as though time slowed down.She took one moment again to look at what dropped, making sure she actually saw it right, fuck yeah! It was the damn grenade, her own grenade.The tables turned, adrenaline kicked in, she knew that there was no way she could outrun it, so she did what anyone in her situation would do, dive.She dived through the narrow opening she and Brant had created, flinging her gun in the air. It did not matter where a landed. About the same time, the grenade exploded. The impact from the explosion threw her further. She landed on a body… Brantley's.It was as though she were seeing the sta

One of the Court's IT workers announced.It was there, everything….from the squabble in the office to the phone call in the garage.Everyone gasped and turned to look at Mr White.Mrs White passed out.Brantley rushed to his mother.The twins held each other's hand tightly.Brenda leaned back in her chair.Mila's mind was teleported Somewhere else.

    COURT TALES OF TRUTHFourteen minutes.It was almost time……"It is already time, your Honour, we should proceed." Grandmaster stood up and said.That was the advantage of representing yourself."We still have some more seconds, your Honour." The prosecution quickly added.The judge nodded. Grandmaster stood up to say something again, but his words were interrupted by the loud opening of the door.Everyone's attention was directed towards the door.One after another, all those who were against Grandmaster released breaths they never knew they were holding…surprisingly, even the judge.Disappointment was evident on Grandmaster's face.Dr Edgar accompanied Mr Walborn in the courtroom. Mila and Freya waited outside.When Brantley did not see Mila in the two-man procession, he immediately stood up on his feet and went outside."Which of these men is the supposed witness?" The judge asked even before Dr Edgar and Mr Walborn could reach the front of the courtroom.Dr Edgar indicated that i

    THE CLOCK IS TICKING"Can the prosecution explain to the court why your said witness is not yet available?" The judge asked. She was getting impatient, it was evident."Technical transportation issues." The state lawyer responded.He leaned towards Emille and asked, "what is keeping your witness?" He asked in a whisper."What is holding him back is the only reason why they would not want him to testify, but don't bother, he's being escorted by one of the best bodyguards." Emille replied."Excuse me." Emille stepped out of the court to call for Mila.Brantley had arrived in the court too. He was worried, not that Mila could not take care of herself, but because he loved her, so it was natural for him to worry."What the hell is going on?" Emille asked in a concerned tone as soon as Mila answered."We got company." Mila replied."Do you need more refreshments?" Emille asked."I got it, I guess water would be enough to entertain them." Mila said over the phone."Good then, tell me where

    THE AMBUSH.Randy rode in another car, tailing closely behind Mila.When she got to her condominium, she did not step out, rather she called Dr Edgar to bring Mr Walborn outside.Dr Edgar had personally selected a suit for Mr Walborn. The different clothes made him look 10 years younger."You look handsome, Mr Walborn." Mila smiled as she held the door open for him."Thank you, child. At least this doctor here has fine taste in quality clothes, only if he could put those skills to what I put in my stomach." Mr Walborn glared at Dr Edgar. Mila could not help but laugh."You look handsome too." She mouthed to Dr Edgar when Mr Walborn got into the car. Dr Edgar was dressed in a simple shirt and trousers, he had a clean shave. That alone made him look really different."Thank you. You look stunning yourself." Dr Edgar complimented back. Compliments were being poured at randa."Thank you for coming with us." Mila smiled at Dr Edgar."I have to do my job as a babysitter." Dr Edgar gave a sh

    NAKED SLEEPOVERThe newly bonded family decided to spend the night together.Carl and Phelix were pals, they warmed everyone's heart, especially Mila because she never known that he was good with kids. She had no idea whether or not he loved kids, she did not even know what he loved.Pops had ruled their lives in such a way that all their likes were buried within them and only what he approved, that was what they did…to his face though.She allowed the cold water to run down her body. Everyone together, the smiles, the crying, the hugs, the laughter…this is what she'd ever wanted, not tension, the type of atmosphere she grew up being used to under Pop's roof.It was less than twenty four hours, and everything changed. For once in her life, she did not have to worry about tomorrow. Only if everyone she loved could be here…Only if Dom had lived to experience this different breeze…even just for a day."Fuck this life!" She cursed, turned off the shower, threw a bathrobe on her wet body.

    BRENDA IS SCARYBrantley laid down on his bed, staring at the ceiling while he pondered about what Brenda told him earlier.Brenda was nosy, everyone knew that, but she wasn't a liar. She could be blunt sometimes, but the kid sure knew when to keep her mouth shut.She was smart too, probably more than all of them…well, except him, he had a photographic memory after all.He knew that she would not tell him all those things except something more was going on in that house. He had plans on saying hi to his mom before leaving, but he left without saying a word. He felt guilty, but he could not do otherwise.With the revelation, he wasn't sure to face anyone, especially his father.He needed time to think. He could not just jump into conclusions, he had to get more details about everything before concluding."She said that she was pushed, by who? Who would want to hurt you?" He pondered out loud.'Then why did she keep quiet only to say it now?' He thought."Who are you going to see in th

    WHAT BRENDA KNOWS'Why do good men die and the selfish monsters live?' Brantley pondered as he walked down the corridors of his father's house empty mindedly."Do you want to bulldoze me before you notice that something is in front of you?" Brenda was starting in front of him, with her short self and crutches.He halted abruptly, for real, he had not taken note of the girl."Oh, I see you've upgraded to crutches. They're cute." Brantley rubbed her head like a kitten.She supported her weight on one crutch, freed her other hand and used it to slap his hand off."Why are you always fighting with father?" The youngest White asked.Bran was stunned, he did not expect that question from here. He was speechless for a few seconds, trying to think of an appropriate response to that."We were talking, maybe a little of a disagreement, but we were not fighting." Brantley looked down and said."You were loud!" She raised one side of her lip, confident about her statement and presumption."Wha

    SWEET REUNION"Nice meeting you." Carl forced a smile.The expression on his grandparents' faces changed immediately.He sunkened his shoulders, 'Just as I had expected, outcast!' The words reverberated in his mind.He wished he could turn back the hand of time to just a 5 minutes ago, he'd make sure to get away from here and prevent none of this from happening."Mason had a son?" Papa Rivers looked at his wife. "Isn't he handsome? He looks like an angel." Mama Rivers praised.Carl raised his brows. 'Did they mean the opposite of what they said, or…he had judged the situation wrongly.He looked at Mila, she smiled at him."How old are you, boy?" Mama Rivers asked."I'm 28 years old, ma'am." Carl held his hands together in front of him as though he was for a religious procession.Mila raised her brows and hung her mouth open at his lie."Nonsense, don't call me ma'am. I am your grandmother. Come here!" Mama Rivers rebuked him and hugged him."Just for the record, he is still 27 years o

    OUTCAST"Why do you want to see Fabiola?" Brantley decided to ask at one point. He just refilled their tea cups.Mama Rivers who was about raising her cup to take a sip, paused mid way. She stared at her husband who also had the same look on his face."Oh, we knew her when she was a kid. Since we were in town, we decided to drop by." Papa Rivers replied."Oh, ok. I see." Brantley nodded. There was an awkward silence among them."We'll see your father and enjoy the view a little before going back." Papa Rivers added."I will be glad to show you around town. I bet they'll be so much to entertain both of you." Brantley smiled."Yeah." And there goes the silence again. ________"I got a text from Brant, he said that the package was at my doorstep." Mila looked at her brothers. They were just touching down back in Limesville."Just as we thought." The ever nonchalantly Emille said.Carl was silent."I bet they got my address because of the media." Obviously."So…we are going to your hou
