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 Once the door of the aircraft closed, the capsule was retracted, and Chris walked towards the seating area.“Little uncle, could you not hear us?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
Chris and Emile made their way through the reception hall, toasting guests at each table, in the order of the closeness of their relationship. Adrian, Neil and Night Wing took their roles seriously as they blocked the drinks for Chris. Emile had her supply of fruit tea that Abbey religiously re-filled for her; No one knew why, nor did they think much into it as this was Chris Jnr’s arrangement.Chris and Emile had just reached the table where Grandpa Holston was seated when Chris Jnr slowly stood up from his seat and walked towards them, holding little treasures hand. The rest, along with Bruno in the lead followed with excitement as they knew that the fun Emm mentioned before was about to start.“Thank you for coming and blessing our special day with your presence.” Chris raised the toast towards Ron and the rest; he didn’t even spare Grandpa Holston a glance. It was not in his nature to grin and bear grievances.“It was our pleasure.” Several associates including Ron hurriedly joined
Chris and Emile moved to the cake-cutting event with the reminder from little treasure. Cake cutting had a little twist, contrary to the norm where the bride and groom feed each other with the first cut, Emile fed the piece she took to Little treasure while Chris fed Big treasure before letting the two treasures feed them.Although it wasn’t planned and neither big treasure nor little treasure were ready for the surprise, both husband and wife knew each other’s thoughts the moment they looked at each other; they didn’t need to plan or coordinate for such flawless action. The action from the duo that followed also wasn’t planned nor coordinated, it was their norm, the duo would always feed daddy and mommy with their little hands in reciprocation from when they were old enough to grasp things.While the shadow guards took it upon themselves to deliver cake to each and every individual that attended the reception, Chris and Emile personally hand delivered the ones for family and relatives
Once all the guests were seated comfortably according to their table arrangement leaving the seats in the front vacated for family, Augusta as the coordinator for the wedding, announced the entry of the bride and groom, in all its grandeur while the DJ set the background scores for the romantic entry of the bride and groom.Emile’s favorite symphony floated through the air as she and Chris made their grand entrance, once again wearing a couple set; they had changed out of their traditional wedding attire they wore in the morning to a champagne-colored gown and suit. They walked in, Emile holding onto Chris’s arm with a blissful smile, like a pair of immortals strolling through the mortal realm as they walked through the hall to the center, followed by their little tails also wearing a mini version of their set. The adorable little dolls had their heads held high, a proud smile hanging on their faces as they followed in their parents’ footsteps.The bridal entourage followed behind with
Everyone went back to their rooms to rest and change before the reception banquet, which was also the continuation of the wedding extravaganza with no expense spared. With all the guests housed in Royal Lux, the hotel was closed to outside business, other than the ones that had a pre-booking and couldn’t be changed to another date.“Where’s Christian?” Daniel turned to question Ceilier as soon as he reached their room; It was not that he didn’t notice that Christian wasn’t with them, but the truth of the matter was that he didn’t get a chance till now.“He went off with the Walters.” Ceilier twisted his lips awkwardly as he replied in a low voice.“That bastard…” Daniel gritted his teeth as he muttered under his breath before turning his attention to Emile. He waved his hand, instructing Ceilier to step down before walking up to Emile and taking a seat facing her.“What’s wrong?” Emile asked in concern as she saw Daniel staring at her with knitted brows.“Nothing ….” Daniel shrugged be
“Senior Master Walter, the ride for returning to the hotel is ready.” One of the shadow guards from the team who were assigned to the Walters and Burkes announced as he stood respectably by Adam’s side.“Um…” Adam nodded as he took the treasures and Bruno with him “Lead the way.” Adam walked forward holding Big treasure and Bruno while Elizabeth held little treasure’s hand. No matter how uncomfortable she was, little treasure put on a brave smile and walked forward, as though she was heading for the gallows. Both Adam and Elizabeth feigned ignorance although they were laughing in their heads; she looked too adorable!Adam purposefully left Little treasure to Elizabeth’s care even though he knew that she would be uncomfortable. His intention was well meaning; to give them a chance to get to know each other better. He just didn’t expect the extent of aversion he saw in little treasure’s subtle actions; there was not just aversion but also fear mixed with guilt which Adam never expected;
The groom kissing the bride, captured in the backdrop of the rising sun, was too magical to say the least; Other than the younger generation of the Burke and Walter household who were causing a ruckus by whistling and cheering, all the other guests were mesmerized by the magical moment that was unfolding before their eyes.“Wow! That was so magical.” One of the guests exclaimed as she turned around with a dreamy expression, stretching her hands; no one could despise her excitement as this was the thought in the hearts of most of the people who came to attend the wedding; the finale of the wedding was too mesmerizing for even the most grounded and rationale minds.They would never forget this magical moment for the rest of their lives; the moment they witnessed nature proclaiming the fulfillment of a man’s undying affection and loyalty; the moment they witnessed the groom and his bride finally attaining their happily ever after, despite all the odds that fate had stacked against them.A
“Mommy, you better take care of your man from here on…there's only so much a little girl can do…” Emm’s bell-like voice rang out as she advised seriously forgetting that her mouthpiece was still on “It was hard work, but we got him here for you.”Everyone burst out laughing as they heard the childish reprimand, leading Emm to wince in embarrassment as she hid behind her elder brother biting her tongue.“Uff….uff…” Chris Jnr cleared his throat like a little adult to attract everyone’s attention before he continued “As you have witnessed, our daddy’s journey to his happily ever after has been anything but smooth; whether it was our mommy’s blindness to recognize his unwavering affection and love….”The laughter from the crowd continued while the bride shyly lowered her head, but not without glaring at the flower boy who suddenly became talkative. Emm didn’t have any solidarity with the bride as she covered her mouth and giggled.“or whether it was the judgmental eyes of the world around
“You could never do what he did…”“What did you say?” Daniel asked in shock; he had heard what she said even though it was a whisper; he just didn’t want to believe it. He didn’t want to believe that Emile had recovered her memory. If she didn’t why would she say that?“How can you arrange so many hot air balloons? Such an extravaganza wedding would need the coffers of the king opened.” Emile giggled as she turned around to face him.Daniel stared at her face for a long time trying to make sense, trying to discern if what she said was purely based on the wedding arrangement or whether there was a hidden meaning in them. But before he could process this line of thought, the ceremonial bells rang leading everyone to take a closer look at the hot-air ballon in the center. Although it was one that could hold 35 people, there were currently only about 25 people including the celebrant and his assistant.“That is actually a priest not a celebrant.” One of the guests in Daniel’s basket, who h
Almost all the guests in the hotel woke up in the wee hours of the morning as they had all arrived to participate in the youngest Walter’s wedding. All of them without exception were filled with excitement regardless of the reason for their excitement.No one knew the exact location of the venue, as other than the name, Church in the Sky, Mossel Bay, there were no details of how to get to the venue. All they knew or were told when they asked for location details was that transportation for them to be taken to the venue was arranged for everyone attending the wedding.Cars were lined up one behind the other, at the hotel entrance, picking up the guests as they arrived at the entrance and heading for the venue. Daniel, Emile and Christian lined up at the back of the line as they arrived.“What are you looking for?” Emile asked in confusion as she saw Daniel looking around.“Grandpa is here too. I was looking to see if he was around.” Daniel shrugged “He could come in the same car as us.
