“Do you plan to unveil on his birthday?” Lorenzo asked with an evil grin.

“No” Darcy didn’t have to think; he wanted to make up for all the birthdays that he had been perfunctory over the years. Nothing was more important, not even revenge.

“Second brother listen to what I have to say.” Chris smiled as he added “I have hinted to Marcus before, and he didn’t have any objections but…”

Chris paused purposefully as he knew second brother was anxious and wanted to muck around with him. Mark shook his head helplessly as he saw through his little brother’s thoughts and his panicked second brother. The others all had an expression of schadenfreude written all over their faces.

“Come on… spit it out… ‘but’ what?” Darcy urged anxiously seeing that Chris had stopped speaking and was pursing his lips into a straight line.

“Enough…. Stop messing around with your second brother.” Mark slapped the back of Chris’s head gently.

“After seeing sister-in-law at the party, he came to me asked if the

    “And…” There was pin drop silence in the room as everyone looked at him anxiously as they waited for his next words. But Chris had no intention of speaking; he was savouring the sight of his unflinching siblings squirm anxiously when he got slapped at the back of his head. “Is it fun to watch your brothers squirm?” Adam narrowed his eyes reprimanding his little prankster who had grown up to be fine young man and yet had moments like this despite his age and persona he created for himself in front of the world. Although he was reprimanding, there wasn’t even the slightest hint of reproach in his eyes other than a playful glint. “Yes...” Chris admitted with a resentful pout as he rubbed his head and turned to look at the culprit who had the nerve to imitate his father. “Dad…. Why are you here?” Chris’s eyes widened in surprise before smiling flatteringly at Adam; he didn’t forget to glare at Night Wing for not warning him. Poor Night Wing could only mouth ‘Sorry’ with a helpless expr

    “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

    “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

    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

    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

    “What is it?” Marcus and Chris Jnr asked in unison, with the same helpless expression.“Choose the venue as the same place that daddy and mommy confessed in Mossel Bay.” Emm answered bubbling with excitement.“If it where they confessed, then we have to do it in several hundred feet above ground.” Chris Jnr rolled his eyes with feigned disdain even though he liked the idea.Emm pouted before raising her chin defiantly “Anyway that would have a special meaning to both daddy and mommy.”“Okay…. okay…. little treasure is right… big treasure was only teasing you.” Chris Jnr quickly decided to plead guilty before the little empress decided to throw a tantrum.“We could do it in the vineyard that our family owns.” Marcus suggested as he agreed with little treasure.Chris Jnr’s eyes kept rolling as little treasure’s idea started to get fixated in his head “Let’s see what the wedding planners can come up with.”“But that will mean more work for both of you.” Chris Jnr added with a thoughtful

    “You two….” Marcus looked from one treasure to the other in disbelief, holding a wedding was a huge thing, he wanted to dissuade them, but he knew that twin look; A hundred wild horses wouldn’t be able to hold them back…. What could this poor eldest brother do other than support them?“Tell me what to do...” Marcus slouched down, sighing with a resigned expression; since he couldn’t talk them out of it, he might as well support them all the way and face the music later. Little uncle might be disappointed with him for not being sensible and mature enough to guide the duo in the right direction but at least he could be a good eldest brother.“I have given the task of selecting the wedding planner from the three wedding planners I have shortlisted to Uncle Night Vigil.” Chris Jnr fiddled with his fingers as he lowered his head and raised his eyes to look guiltily at eldest brother and little treasure. He didn’t ask for their opinion before he decided to act and didn’t know if they would f

    Chris Jnr locked his door soon after Emile ran out of his room with the phone and climbed back onto his bed and dialed little treasure. He knew he would have to wait for a while since they hadn’t made an appointment but contrary to his expectation little treasure picked up the call even before it could ring.“Big brother….”Chris Jnr pursed his lips into a pout; Little treasure rarely called him big brother…. Not unless she had encountered some sort of grievance….“Big brother is here…” Chris Jnr softened his voice, like he had seen his daddy do when he was comforting them “What’s wrong with little treasure? Is eldest brother not there?” He knew that with eldest brother near her, there was no way she would suffer any grievance.“Little treasure is fine…” Emm pouted as she tried to hold on to her grievance. She was fine, just that she missed her brother too much… they had never been separated and that too for this long.“He’s here.” Marcus responded at the same time as Emm.“What’s wron

    “I…. what???” Emile’s voice rose a notch as she lifted her head to look at Chris in shock. She shook her head in denial as she lowered her eyes taking stock of every conversation with Daniel; she muttered in disbelief even before her brain finished processing her thoughts “In my memory, our re-acquaintance did not exist, let alone marriage…. Then how can I ask for a divorce?”“I believe you…. you might not have asked.” Chris coaxed patiently as he gently massaged her back to calm her emotions.“Hubby, I am truly sorry….” Emile buried her face coquettishly in his chest, as she muttered “I cannot even imagine the pain it caused you…. I am so sorry…”“It is not your fault. I am to be blamed if you have to blame someone…. It is my fault I believed that lunatic.” Chris pacified gently, without feeling tired or agitated even though he was repeatedly saying the same thing.“The only reason I believed him was because my brain was not functioning properly; I couldn’t see through his stupid sche

    “Yes…. I don’t think either of us will have a choice when those two scheme together.” Chris’s lips curled up; his eyes narrowed with curiosity.Although he was eager to know what his treasures had in store for them, he didn’t look into it as he didn’t want to deprive them of the joy, the joy they got from seeing their expressions towards the element of surprise that his treasures had planned. This reunion was fully to their credit although he didn’t know how they managed; this indulgence was what they deserved.“You mean ….” Emile raised her head curiously to look up at Chris “You mean, the two are plotting?”“How else could you explain me missing my tail?” Chris chuckled “and giving me the luxury to come and find you on my own?”Emile giggled as she leaned comfortably into Chris’s embrace.“Wife, what happened?” Chris asked once they settled comfortably in each other’s embrace.“I am not sure…” Emile paused as she bit her lower lip hesitating before raising her head to look into Chris

    “Hubby, you…. aren’t you getting married to someone else?” Emile asked cautiously in a low voice; no matter how cautious she was, she couldn’t hide the hope in her heart…which transmitted as an excited relief through her voice. “Wife, I have told you before…I, Christopher Walter will only marry once and my wife can only be Emile Burke…” Chris assured patiently, his voice carrying a promise…. an oath of a lifetime… “Hubby….” Emile called out in a soft voice, her lips curling up in a sweet smile, brightening her entire aura; all her grievance melted with his promise…she knew her husband never spoke for verbality. “Um” Chris hummed in a low coaxing voice; his aura too brightened, dissipating the cold, gloomy aura around him…. a simple address from her, calmed his restless soul like magic. At this moment, silence entwined with each other’s calm breathing, seemed to be healing the undue grievance suffered by the two souls who loved each other deeply. “Hubby….” Emile called again, her v

    Chris Jnr was setting up his gadgets to contact little treasure when Night Sonic announced that he had taken care of everything. Chris Jnr nodded in acknowledgement as he continued to fidget with his gadgets.‘Duk…duk…duk…’ A soft knock was heard a few minutes later at Chris Jnr’s door.Chris Jnr’s lips curled up in a knowing smirk as he carelessly placed a sheet over his bed, covering his gadgets, and walked over to open the door.“Aren’t you tired? Shouldn’t you be sleeping?” Chris Jnr quirked his eyebrows wanting to taunt, however his lips curled down guiltily as he saw his mommy’s red eyes.“Do you have a way to contact your daddy?” Emile quickly entered and closed the door as she didn’t want to cause unnecessary trouble; she didn’t know if Daniel was still awake or if their voice would attract unnecessary attention.Chris Jnr pursed his lips stubbornly toying with the idea of whether he wanted to pay back his daddy’s grievance or succumb to mommy’s sorry state. However, he gave u

    The day went by without any surprises till everyone sat to watch television after dinner at 6:45, this was the norm in the manor. Although this was the norm, today was different; different because the mental state of the three people seated in the room was not the same as every other day.On the surface it looked like a family of three enjoying a little downtime, however the waves surging underneath the calm exterior were far from calm, perhaps even using the word turbulent to describe the situation would be an understatement.Daniel narrowed his eyes as he thought about what despicable measures, he could use to force Chris to agree to divorce and speed up the process. He had already made arrangements to get a marriage certificate that was legal and valid as soon as the divorce was finalized even without Emile’s consent.However, Chris was proving to be a tough nut to crack.
