“I didn’t know why the girl who had such a bad reputation would want to avoid me. So, I decided to ask clearly. I asked her why she wanted to avoid me and whether I did her any harm?”

“Although she was hesitant at first, eventually she told me that her best friend told her that the reason she had encounter all these bad experiences was because she was trying to impress the young master Walter.”

“I promised her that I had never tried to harm her and asked if her friend was mistaken or lied to her.”

“She told me that her friend had asked around for a while before finally finding the answer and that she wouldn’t lie.”

“I don’t know why I trusted her but started looking into the previous incidents and paying attention to her affairs. This was when I realized that everything that happened to the poor girl was courtesy of my best friend and his sister.”

“I had a huge fight with them...” Adam sighed “Long story short, Over time the fights became too often and the brotherhood from friends

  • Never to look back   Is it a friend or foe?

    “Is it a friend or foe?” “What do we do?” Darcy frowned as he asked in frustration; He didn’t want to go on like this, but he didn’t want to jeopardize Chris’s meticulous planning. Since it was Chris that drove these investigations, everyone turned to look at him. “I think we can proceed as planned, considering both times assistance was rendered in a timely manner. If I were a gambling man, I would put my money on friend.” Chris spoke slowly as he weighed each word “Big brother what do you think?” “Umm” Mark nodded in agreement although his expression didn’t loosen. With Mark’s nod of approval, all the brothers turned their gazes towards Adam. “I agree to go ahead without fussing about Harper Holdings but….” Adam paused and then added “But we should hold taking action before finding where and what Hugo is up to.” “Dad, I disagree.” Chris was first to retort “Hugo would have surfaced if he had more fire power in his arsenal rather than hide behind Senior Mrs Walter.” “Dad, I agre

  • Never to look back   Can we talk in peace?

    Darcy’s shamelessness didn’t end there. He kicked his son whom he had been sticking to like plaster since knowing he was his and Grace’s son. “Dad, how shameless can you be?” Marcus twisted his lips in disdain. “What face?? If I can be with your mother, what face? I wouldn’t even care about my life.” Darcy retorted before closing the door. Marcus knew the door wouldn’t open and wondered if he should go downstairs and trouble his little uncle. All of sudden he didn’t want to behave as any other normal young man would… he wanted to make up for all the years of neglect he was owed. However even before he could head downstairs Night Wing escorted him to his room “Don’t even think about throwing a tantrum with your little uncle. Your little aunt needs to rest.” “Why is my life miserable?” Marcus feigned a wronged expression although he was feeling extremely happy. “I would have gone back with Miles if I knew my parents were so heartless.” Night Wing rolled his eyes as he walked out.

  • Never to look back   Can we proceed according to plan?

    Walter brothers were extremely busy, each investigating through their own vines. Lorenzo activated his family’s network in the dark. Since Chris’s team had tracked the shipping and later Hugo sailing to Durban and Durban being famous for its dark streaks, they naturally passed this info to Lorenzo. Getting information from these areas was his forte. The most relaxed person these three days was Darcy, enjoying sweet time with his wife and son, trying to catch up on all the years they missed. At the same in Maldives, Eva was having the time of her life, living her dream. The man she loved was hers; she no longer had to be on edge wondering what would happen after Marcus’s birthday which was in another 2 weeks. She knew she could get him to renew the contract and stay as Second Mrs Walter for as long as she had the lives of his parents in her hands, but that wouldn’t guarantee him staying with her. She knew his love for Grace. She couldn’t guarantee that Grace wouldn’t suddenly appear

  • Never to look back   Finale to almost 2 decades of deceit (1)

    Eva and Darcy came back after their weeklong honeymoon trip. Contrary to Eva's previous quiet behaviour, this time she flaunted her good fortune without a second thought. Eva could feel the difference in treatment from Elizabeth and Sarah but she was too happy in her own world that she didn’t give it a second thought. In her arrogance, she put down their difference in attitude to them sulking over the fact that he had taken her on a trip instead of their norm. During dinner she distributed the gifts she brought for everyone enthusiastically feigning ignorance to their disgusted indifference. She happily chatted telling them all the details of their trip, she didn’t care if the listener was interested or not; it was as if she was addicted to showing off their love life. The next 2 weeks went by without any incidents. Darcy and Grace lived in their little pink bubble after Marcus reluctantly went back to university. Grace felt her heart well up with warmth and guilt after she knew how

    Darcy had just walked in through the front door holding Grace in his arms behind Marcus who looked like he had won the whole world. The appearance of the family of three who walked in with blissful, happy smiles was like driving a sharp knife into Eva’s chest. Her eyes went red with fury as blood rushed into her brain; she couldn’t care less about her image and rushed towards them like a mad woman. Darcy had taken in her movements from the corner of his eyes, but he didn’t want to glorify her reaction with a response. He conveniently feigned ignorance and greeted the guests, casually chatting with those who came up to him. It wasn’t just Darcy, the rest of the Walter clan had seen Eva’s reaction however no one other than Chris had a reaction. Chris nodded towards Night Wing as he saw Eva going crazy and calmly walked towards Darcy. “You bitch…” Eva rushed forward as she scolded and swung her arm towards Grace. Grace closed her eyes knowing that she couldn’t escape since they were su

    “How could you………” Eva's choked sobs reverberated in the ears of everyone who came to attend Marcus’s 20th birthday. Some of them couldn’t control the righteous anger bubbling within them although they didn’t want to offend the Walter family, the financial emperor, one that was capable of crippling the economic lifeline of the entire country let alone small fries like them. “Mr Walter how can you be so heartless towards the woman you spent the last twenty years of your life?” One of the hot-blooded men who couldn’t bear to see the beauty in distress scolded without care for his life. With one person leading the way more people became restless. “Even if you have fallen in love with someone else you should not be so unbridled.” Another person scoffed. “Miss, please don’t be like this.” The young lady who came with the first person who spoke out, comforted Eva as she helped her up from where she stumbled down. “Men like this, no matter how rich or handsome they are...” She paused as

    “Then why did you run?” The reporter who was zealously examining the marriage certificate asked in a low voice. “Because I am a mother.” Grace pursed her lips contemplating her next words; She sighed as she said her next words “Because I was foolish and a coward.” “I forbid you to say such nonsense.” Darcy spoke in a domineering tone “You are neither foolish nor a coward. You are the woman I love most.” Grace blushed as she lowered her head while Eva’s eyes blazed with jealousy and fury. She wracked her brains to find an opening to tear the bitch's face apart but another reporter stole her chance to speak. “Mr Walter, can you demystify the mystery for us, poor mortals?” Another reporter asked with a chuckle. He didn’t forget to add “The questions we ask tend to make you speak in riddles.” “That’s right, tell us the story.” One of the guests clamoured. One started, the rest followed. These people didn’t really care one way or the other. They just wanted to make a ruckus and have so

    “This was the beginning of my second brother’s nightmare…. A nightmare that lasted 21 years.” Eric sighed regretfully as the video reached its end. Showmanship was his forte and he didn’t disappoint one bit. The tempo of his speech and release of information couldn’t be more perfect; it captured the curiosity and hearts of everyone around him other than the Caldwell’s. “I am not sure how this vicious woman knew about second sister-in-law being pregnant, but I have to tremble at the thought of what followed could be cooked up in the mind of a 22-year-old.” Eric looked visibly shaken at the thought. “These are all events that took place when I was still in shorts and so I don’t blame anyone for doubting the authenticity of my words.” Eric had an understanding expression as he continued “I will let you hear from the people who were involved. They will be handed over to the law enforcement officers who are present to authenticate their words. Anyone who has doubts can also verify at that

    The rest of Burkes followed suit without waiting for either Chris or Emile to respond; curiosity had gotten the better of them.Little baby was not stupid. How would he dare question little aunt? He looked over nonchalantly before making a gesture with his meaty fingers to indicate payment.“What do you want?” Both Harry and Addison asked in excitement.“I am very rich for the time being, so I will let Leo choose.” Little baby responded with a smug look and passed the honours to Leo.“Take us all on the trip to the Alps when fifth Uncle Walter is taking them.” Leo didn’t have to think as he told Addison what he wanted.Addison agreed without a second thought and walked back into the room the adults were seated, humming a song only to be despised by his mother, which he totally ignored and sat down happily with a thick skin.The fate of the rest of the Burke brothers were similar; no one was spared.

    “Where are you going?” Henry teased as he caught the little overlord and hurled him in the air.“Put me down.” Bruno frowned, flailing his legs anxiously “I haven’t finished discussing with little uncle.”Everyone laughed as Henry put Bruno down, who promptly ran to Chris, looked up at him curiously, awaiting his decision.“Hur…hur…hur….” Chris chuckled “How would I dare renegade on a promise to our little overlord?”“Then when can we go?” Bruno asked seriously, taking no offense to the title, to him, this was recognition of his ability.“When we get back and whenever you say the word.” Chris never had any qualms indulging his nephews and nieces.“Where are we going?” Leo asked curiously.Bruno looked towards Chris who shrugged “It’s up to to the owner of the reward to decide, I am just the charioteer.”“Then let’s go to the ocean king’s castle.” Bruno didn’t have to think twice to make a decision.Chris “”Everyone burst out laughing, only the little ones looked curiously at Chris.“I

    He was smart enough to decipher big treasure's cryptic message that he could find the answer by testing them himself, after sulking for a while, thinking about big treasure’s words over and over again. He rushed to Chris’s room once again, pulled Big Treasure aside and whispered hurriedly before running away. He then ran off to the apartment where the Burkes where resting. He went over to call Leo and Liam to play with him in the backyard with a crafty look in his eyes. All the Burke kids followed Leo and Liam to play, the main intent for the older kids following them was to keep them safe.He turned around to look at Leo with a guilty look in his eyes as he asked cautiously, “Would you stop talking to me if you find out that I landed you in trouble to test you?”“Why do you want to test me?” Leo demanded with a frown.“Because it is very important to me.” Bruno blinked his eyes, lowering his gaze as he whispered, “Like life and death situation that grown-ups talk about.”“Well, in tha

    After the excitement died down, everyone decided to go out, sight-seeing, like proper tourists. Adam invited his friends who politely stayed back at the hotel sensing that Adam and the rest had family matters to sort out, to join the group. Just like that, the Burkes, Walters, Adam’s three friends, the two masters, Chris’s senior brother, Bai-Min and Lai-Li set off on their wild-life adventure, that they had booked with one of the tour groups. It goes without saying that the group included Adrian and his little family and Neil who dragged Chiara along with him. What was unexpected was that Emm pulled Amy, Abbey’s assistant to tag along with them. Luckily for Amy, she had Beth who got dragged into the family outing by Marcus to keep her company. Her boss had ditched her without a conscience the minute her ‘knight in shining armour’ appeared. On their return trip, even though they were all chatting, what attracted everyone’s attention was little treasure’s soft cute voice “Daddy, is it

    The next morning, everyone was in high spirits without even a trace of the anxiety that passed through; although they were still waiting for an explanation, a closure to whole saga. The breakfast table was lively and cheerful. “Son, tell me is Emile really pregnant?” Elizabeth couldn’t hold herself back anymore. She asked once everyone had settled in the lounge area to relax after breakfast. “Um” Chris nodded although he was displeased inwardly; he wondered if his mother had truly changed or whether she was about to revert to her old ways. “Tell us how you know what was wrong with Little aunt.” Miles piped in from the background, turning everyone’s attention towards big treasure and little treasure, after being signalled by Marcus. He didn’t know why eldest brother wanted him to divert the topic, but he still obeyed. He didn’t always have to know the reason; eldest brother was in charge; he would follow whatever eldest brother asked him to do. “Daddy was too lost. We knew we had to

    Outside the room, Chris Jnr finally managed to coax little treasure and sighed in relief. There was nothing he could do about it, his little ears and heart hurt from listening to little treasure’s wails. He would compensate his little brother in other ways. “How is your mommy?” Chris asked once little treasure had been coaxed. “She is fine.” Chris Jnr thought for a minute before answering; his mommy looked fine, she was sleeping peacefully. He leaned forward, close to Chris, gesturing little treasure to come close and whispered with a soft voice “Daddy, I touched a dragon.” “A what?” Little treasure’s eyes widened, surprise mixed with disbelief, reflecting in those adorable eyes. “Um” Chris Jnr nodded with all seriousness in affirmation to little treasure but not before he gestured little treasure to be quiet. “Daddy, are dragons real?” Little treasure leaned even closer as she whispered. “Maybe…” Chris shrugged before closing his eyes and mind linking with the two treasures “Da

    “Jnr might be a good option.” Chris’s master slowly opened his mouth once he finished sifting everyone’s faces through his mind.Hua Yueren lifted his eyebrows questioningly.“He has been around her while she was away. Naturally, the apparition although only a figment of Azure’s consciousness, it will still be sharp enough to sense a friend from a foe. Also, since he is her biological son, his spirit must have a lingering smell of her essence.”Hua Yueren nodded; he didn’t have any better solution. They would re-think their plans if this one backfired.Chris’s master transmitted his message to Spector who promptly brought Chris in, in his usual manner of teleportation.Chris Jnr greeted the two masters and stood straight, neither servile nor overbearing, quietly waiting instructions; his demeanour brought a glint of admiration to the eyes for both men.“Son, can you see the apparition surrounding your mother?” Chris’s master knelt beside Chris Jnr so that he could level his gaze with h

    Emile felt a bit anxious as she entered the room with Chris’s and Neil’s masters. Although she knew them, she wasn’t very familiar with them. She looked towards Lai-Li with an anxious gaze; Lai- Li was the only person in the group whom she knew a little better.“It will be alright.” Lai-Li comforted in a gentle voice as she saw Emile’s gaze resting on her uncomfortably.“Master Walter’s mood might get agitated and that won’t help us.” She explained patiently as she saw that the concern in Emile’s gaze hadn’t dispersed. “Neil is not used to our world, and he will be in a daze and that will not help our cause as we will need to be quick.”Although Emile didn’t fully understand, she nodded. She had seen Chris do unbelievable things before, stuff that couldn’t be explained by logic and science alone.“It will be quick. Everything will be back to normal as soon as you wake up.” Lai-Li coaxed gently as she patted her hands while Emile’s lids gradually grew heavier and finally, she closed her

    “Daddy, little treasure is here.” Emm tugged Chris’s pants with grievance. She had been waiting patiently for daddy to coax little baby and carry her, but little baby had no intention of coming down.“Daddy’s little treasure is the most understanding treasure in the world.” Chris smiled as he knelt and carried Emm along with Bruno and headed to wait in front of the door.“Little brother, let me…” Darcy stepped forward extending his hands towards Chris with a sheepish smile. He wondered if he really was not cut out to be a good father; he was happily standing watching the drama unfold when Grace nudged him with a reproachful glare as she gestured with her eyes towards Bruno.“It’s okay.” Chris chuckled looking at Darcy’s embarrassment before turning his doting gaze towards his little treasure and then Bruno.Neither looked at him as they were both looking at the closed door with similar anxious expressions although the cause of their anxiety was different.
