Chris stood up from his seat once Night Wing and Night Rider returned after sending off the president. Once the door of the aircraft closed, the capsule was retracted, and Chris walked towards the seating area.“Little uncle, could you not hear us? Are you sure ‘coz we could hear you.” Marcus asked curiously and continued as he saw Chris shaking his head “Can I test to see how it works?”Mark and Darcy too followed Marcus to the front to test the capsule, while Chris nodded towards Night Wing as he took a seat snuggling with his wife.“Make as much noise as you want.” Night Wing winked at Chris Jnr and pressed the button to release the capsule bubble to encompass the back of the plane.To Mark, Darcy and Marcus’s astonishment, everyone behind the capsule had vanished into thin air let alone sound being heard. However, the ones inside the capsule who were screaming their hearts out loud, started laughing their head out as they saw their most powerful eldest uncle, second uncle and eldes
Master came and left in a hurry, once he greeted Chris and the rest. He left one of the disciples to show Chris and the others to their little huts.Adam was itching to introduce his kids to his friends, but he had to wait till they were taken over to the place they were staying.“This is my family.” Adam introduced with a proud smile once the disciple left behind by master took them to the compound that they would be living in for the next 3 days, without waiting for them to go over to their individual huts and settle down.The compound they were taken to had eight independent huts; this and the adjacent ones were the compounds dedicated to visitors and guests.“You’ve all met Uncle Lincoln.”“Hello Uncle Lincoln” Mark and his siblings greeted warmly.“Hello Grandpa Lincoln.” Marcus and his siblings greeted.“Good…good….good…” Lincoln laughed happily as he nodded towards them. It was truly a joy seeing all of them together.“This is Uncle Min and Uncle Shenyang.” Adam introduced the o
The emotions from a reunion after 45 long years of separation was not something that could be settled with a hug. Mark and his siblings sat quietly, watching from the sidelines while their father settled his untold grievances and longing.“Mom, this is the first born of your grandchildren” Adam introduced Mark and Angel in a nasal voice once he calmed down from his initial shock “We, my wife and I, named him Mark Harvey Walter and Angel Bridgette Walter.”Bridgette had a gentle smile as she looked at her grandchildren who were fully grown men. A sense of loss flashed past her eyes, she would never get the chance to spoil and pamper them, she had missed out on their childhood.Adam: “This is Mark’s better half, Sarah Moorefields and these are your great grandchildren, Miles, Melody and Max.”Adam turned to Thomas “This is Thomas Benton, Angel’s prince charming and their little ones Penelope, Yvonne and Kevin.”Adam pointed towards Darcy “This is my second born, Darcy Everett Walter and
“Is grandma fully cured?” Eric asked hesitantly.“Neil’s master did an examination yesterday.” Everett pursed his lips, knitting his brows “Almost… is what he said.”“What does almost mean?” Lorenzo puckered his lips; the words he hated the most was ‘maybe’ ‘if’ and ‘almost’.“The poisoning and all visible signs of the root of the disease have been cured.” Everett explained “The bastard used two types of poison. One was a traditional poison which was responsible for elder sister’s comatose state; this one would eventually corrode her internal organs leading to a slow, painful death. When we came three months ago, Neil and his master had stabilized the spread of the poison and also performed a procedure to protect her internal organs. The treatment these three months was to expel every single drop of poison from elder sis’s body.”“Bastard” Mark, Thomas and Peter cursed; their faces flushed red with anger while Eric, Darcy and Lorenzo smashed their fists into the ground, their faces con
“Mom, how are you feeling?” Adam asked once Chris gestured towards him.“I am fine… why wouldn’t I?” Bridgette quirked her eyebrows “I was waiting to see what these little treasures were up to?”“Mom, I think they finished what their dad entrusted them to do.” Adam chuckled seeing the silly look on his mother’s face and explained the whole incident.“You mean, that the humming sound was on till you asked me the question?”Adam nodded.“Let’s rest for today.” Chris stood up carrying his treasures “Everyone had a long day.”“No, I am not tired.” Adam spoke faster than his brain could process what he was saying. He didn’t want to sleep; what if this was all a dream and when he woke up he would find out that his mother and maternal uncle were longer in this word?”“Then, Dad you can continue to muck around with your four men army and make trouble for Neil’s master.” Chris chuckled as he walked out with Emile and his treasures ignoring his dad’s protest.“Ha….ha…ha…” Everyone laughed and fo
Back at the Royale Lux, Master and Lai-Li busied themselves with healing Bridgette while the others sat in the lounge planning their next move. They would have loved to head straight from the annual meeting to their ancestral home to drive out all the rats that unjustly occupied their home all these years, but their grandmother’s life was more important.“Little brother, how are you so sure that the Larvae have been awoken?” Darcy wasn’t convinced. He had been observing grandpa the whole time; he didn’t even blink from the time grandpa approached grandma.“Why don’t I let the man of the hour speak?” Chris chuckled as he looked at his treasures. All the youngsters had been brought back from the Burke house shortly after Chris and the rest returned.“How can I be a man? I am a princess.” Emm pouted unhappily.“Daddy said it wrong...can you forgive daddy?” Chris ignored everyone as they burst out laughing and started to coax his little treasure; she reluctantly forgave him as she couldn’t
Thomas was spot on with his speculation. Silas refused to budge on his stance regarding declaring themselves as bankrupt. Michael threw one tantrum after the other but was ignored and finally succumbed under Silas’s threat that they would break off with him and claim that they had paid off their part of the debt.Although Carmilla was originally on her son’s side as she thought about how they were giving away money for free to that bitch’s children. However, she changed her mind as Silas informed her that Michael wanted to pass the property to his mistress and convinced her that they wouldn’t benefit regardless of the rosy picture Michael was portraying.He also didn’t forget to warn his grandmother that this would also mean that they could never rise again as there would be restrictions placed on them by the chamber of trade and commerce.Carmilla wasn’t your average brainless woman, one had to give her half the credit for the success of Rufus’s plan. She had her own plans when she de
“He has a company?” Michael started rolling in his eyes “Where did he get the money for starting the company? Isn’t it all from the family? Go to his company and tell them to advance the remaining money.” He ordered without a conscience “Tell them that I have ordered him to do it.”Silas’s lips curled in ridicule as he saw the uncanny resemblance between what his father was ordering him to do and what his grandfather did a few days ago.“Che!” Silas sneered impolitely “He started his company with his own money. Didn’t you hear him a few days ago? He had never used a single penny that came from your coffers. Also, his men told me that they don’t have access to finances. Carson handles finances by himself. So, you can say goodbye to your wishful thinking about getting even a single dime from him.”Silas stood up to leave, he paused, his lips lifting in an evil arc “The auditors have submitted the results of their evaluation, and the court has issued a verdict, sentencing us to pay back 4
“This has nothing to do with my daddy. We are the ones who bought our mommy back.” Chris Jnr stood tall as he crossed his arms and looked at Grandpa Holston in anger; Emm, too had the same expression, her face red with anger. If it was another occasion, everyone would have laughed looking at the 1-inch dwarfs who were protecting their daddy behind them. “Great grandpa…. didn’t….” Grandpa Holston couldn’t bear to see the accusatory anger in the eyes of his most precious great grandchildren; he could bear anything; he was ready to bear the curses of the whole world when he decided to close his eyes towards his grandson’s action, but he didn’t factor in his great grandchildren. “You know what you did.” Chris Jnr retorted without giving him any face; his daddy, mommy and little treasure were his bottom line. “I don’t think you want me to glorify it by spelling it out for you.” “Big treasure….” Chris called out, a restraining command in his tone. “Hymph!” Chris Jnr hmphed as he turned
“The old master Holston is here.” The butler announced breaking Chris and Henry’s stalemate, “Can daddy’s big treasure go and play with the others?” Chris asked in a gentle voice. Big treasure pouted, clearly refusing to walk away as he knew what great grandpa was here for. He hesitated for a minute before resolutely shaking his head in refusal and ditching Chris for the first time since he was born and walked over to take a seat on the sofa all by himself, with his head held high and lips pursed stubbornly. Just as Chris was thinking about how to coax big treasure, he heard another set of tiny steps pitter pattering towards him; his heart literally sank as he turned around to face the culprit. He could face almost anything that life throws at him without batting an eyelid except for these two little ancestors…. He was bound to be at loss, every single time. “Is little treasure late?” Emm asked Chris Jnr worriedly, without sparing a glance at her daddy and unreliable mommy. “I hea
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. Henry who was complacent looking at the miserable fate of his brothers, got a rude wakeu
“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
