Never to look back Restless night
Christopher paced back and forth in his room. He didn’t know what to do. Although he had to admit that he was shocked when he first heard the doctor but never in his wildest dreams did he think of giving up on her. He knew what she was trying to do… but he had no way to stop her.He didn’t want to force her to make a decision, nor did he want to push her into a corner… all he wanted was for her to talk to him, tell him what she was thinking…. He wanted to support her no matter how difficult her decision would be for him. He only wanted to see her smile…even if it was from a distance.He wondered if his last words were too harsh on her. He had a lot more to tell her… he wanted to beg her to reconsider…. but…. all those words were stuck in his throat. She never gave him a chance to verbalize…. She didn’t even give him a glance before she left the room.Night Wing watched the scene unfold and quietly left the room. The only person he could think of and want to talk to, was that crazy wom

‘Click’Abbey woke up from her sleep with the sound of the lock turning from the other side of the door. She hurriedly sat up and looked at the door anxiously. She had never seen Emile in this state. She was always strong; never this miserable…. Not even when she left Daniel 2.5 months ago.Emile pursed her lips and looked at Abbey with an awkward expression “You… you…”“Yes… it’s me.”“Why didn’t you go back?” Emile lowered her eyes guiltily.“How can I go when you are like this?” Abbey got up with difficulty as legs were numb from sitting in one position for a whole night.“I am sorry.” Emile supported Abbey back to her room before she went to the bathroom to fresh-up.They silently freshened up and sat before the table with the breakfast that Abbey ordered although neither had the mood to eat. Abbey forced Emile to eat a slice of bread before they got the hotel staff to clear the table.“Do you want to talk?” Abbey asked softly after sitting for a while side by side in silence.Emi

Christopher only planned to take a quick look and leave but his legs seemed to be rooted to the ground. Unaware, Emile and Abbey continued with their heart to heart. “Daniel searched everywhere for Michelle without any luck. He didn’t give up until he came home one night a month later, worn out and drunk; I still remember that night” Emile sniffed as she recalled the heartache she felt when she saw the man she loved with all her heart, pinning over another woman.” “What happened that night?” Abbey couldn’t control her gossipy curiosity. “Nothing of the sort that you imagined with your overimaginative brain.” Emile scoffed before continuing. “That night, I took care of him.” Emile shrugged as she gave Abbey a simple explanation. “We started getting along well with each other after that.” Emile smiled at the distant memory and spoke in a daze “It was like we were getting to know each other and were beginning to fall in love.” “He would bring me flowers when he returned from work; s

Christopher had no idea of the torture she had been through. She had merely glossed over it the last time she opened up to him. He had no idea what they talked about after they discussed about the results of confronting Daniel with the truth. He couldn’t get through the fact that, that bastard had hurt his treasure time and time again.Christopher jumped back into his balcony in a daze. He didn’t want to hand his treasure back to such a bastard. He had to re-think what he was going to do. He went back to his room to unpack. He was packed and ready to leave after taking a quick glance at her. He didn’t want his presence to pressure her into making a decision she would regret.Christopher wasn’t the only one eavesdropping. Night Wing was also standing guard outside Emile’s door, but he couldn’t hear what they were saying clearly. However, the sound of the two women crying seemed to stab an unknown place in his chest especially the sound of that crazy woman crying. He never knew the craz

The scene that entered Night Wing’s eyes as he entered the room was Christopher was unpacking his bag. In the eyes of the beholder, the difference between packing and unpacking would be based on their perspective. Night Wing froze for a minute before opening his mouth “Boss…”“Order lunch for us as well.” Christopher chuckled seeing the normally indifferent Night Wing’s face alternating with the colours of the rainbow.“Boss…” Night Wing didn’t know what to make of his Boss’s current mood.“Don’t stand there stunned like an idiot.” Christopher walked forward and tapped his shoulder with a smile “Otherwise even I would have to doubt if Abbey’s assumption of buy 1 get 1 free was correct.”Night Wing turned to look at Christopher in a daze for a second before scratching the back of his head in embarrassment and turning to look if anyone else saw his embarrassment, more importantly if the crazy woman saw…. Christopher could hold any longer and laughed loudly.“Boss how did you know that I

Emile and Abbey leaned against the back of the sofa in the lounge room without any regard for their appearance hugging their bloated tummies in bliss.“Ahaa…. My stomach is going to burst. I am not eating for another month.” Abbey mumbled dishonestly although she had a happy smile on her face.“Thanks Abbey” Emile turned to look at Abbey and smiled. Abbey responded by smiling, blinking her eyes.“So” Abbey opened her mouth after holding it in for a while “I know it is not my place to say anything…..”“You can say anything to me…” Emile smiled as she turned to face Abbey. She could guess what Abbey wanted to say looking at the constipated expression.“Do you think you need to give Christopher an explanation?” Abbey wrinkled her forehead “I mean do you think it is fair on him?”“I owe him a lot more than an explanation….” Emie’s voice staggered into a whisper “But I just don’t know how….. this…. Everything is a lot more complicated now.”“I don’t see it that way.” Abbey shook her head “

Mossel bay airfield was well lit up although the sun was yet to come out. The staff didn’t know who the guests that were about to arrive were, but that didn’t affect their enthusiasm in the slightest. Officials swiftly organized themselves to receive the aircraft even though they received the order at short notice. All they knew was that the arriving guests could not be offended. 2 small sized private jets landed in Mossel Bay airfield in the wee hours of the morning. Although it was the wee hours, the small airport was bustling with activity and curiosity. Who were the people that were about to alight?However, the people who alighted didn’t seem to be affected by their curiosity nor the fuss. An elderly yet dignified couple followed by 4 couples, a middle-aged lady and a young lady alighted from the jets and passed through without any of the unusual demands or fuss.The only unusual thing if any was that the pilots of the aircrafts didn’t log off at the airport but followed the fam

“Ahem… ahem…” Adam cleared his throat and gave Christopher a look prompting him to speak.“Dad, this is Emile.”“I am not senile yet.” Adam snorted as he sat back.“Son, we know she is Emile.” Elizabeth pursed her lips that were curling up as she added in ridicule “I don’t think we can forget even if we turn senile after hearing it for the past ten years.”Emile lowered her head. She wished she could dig a hole and disappear; the giggling sounds of her to-be- sisters-in-law weren’t making her feel any better.“We know she is Emile. We know that you love her. We know that she didn’t like you.” Ericson took the baton for teasing from his parents.“We know that she is now divorced, and you threw all the big and small work at me, drowning my life and ran away from home.” Mark too joined in the fun.“…..and made the already non-existent time with our dad for me and my siblings disappear.” Miles jumped in to say his 2 cents worth as well.“Stop teasing” Veronica laughed “Otherwise the girl

Daniel didn’t speak to Chris Jnr on the way back; he sat sulking and occasionally giving him an annoyed look without realizing that his grievance was against a six-year-old. But the sentiments were totally lost on Chris Jnr who thought about it as ‘good riddance to bad rubbish!’Daniel didn’t want much… he just wanted his son to care… to ask how he was… whether he was hurt? He didn’t expect his son to do much but an excuse of helplessness to show he cared… but what he got in return was ignorant indifference.Chris Jnr feigned ignorance to Daniel’s sulking and kept staring out of the window as always; no one would suspect that a six-year-old was doing this on purpose, especially for a kid like Chris Jnr, whose norm was to sit quietly staring out the window.On the flight, Daniel wanted to warn Chris Jnr several times not to tell Emile about what happened, but he didn’t know how to; the awkward silence lasted till the duo reached home. Well, awkward silence for Daniel and blissful silenc
Never to look back What can I do if he goes around asking for a beating?
George tried to rush to Daniel’s side before the police took him away, but he wasn’t successful; the more he tried, the more he got pushed back. He would have to be a fool if he didn’t realize that the shadow guards were purposefully making it difficult for him, making it impossible to get to his boss’s side in order to facilitate the arrest proceeding smoothly. How could the shadow guards not know what their little miss wanted? How dare they allow even the slightest negligence?The only thing George could do was rush after police car, hoping to make it in time, at least avoiding his boss from being locked up. He was surprised to see Chris Jnr sitting quietly in the car, expressionless, without any intention of stopping/ interfering with the ruckus. Until now, he had assumed that Chris Jnr was still in class, unaware of the situation but what he saw in front of him turned his world view upside down. Shouldn’t the kid be concerned when his father was being beaten senseless? Even if he i
Never to look back How dare he judge my daddy?
“How is daddy doing?” Chris Jnr asked little treasure in concern as he walked back to their classroom holding hands.“He’s still holding it together, feigning a happy face to keep me happy." Emm pursed her lips with a helpless expression before she leaned closer and whispered in her brother’s ears "He's gone to help with the request from that president we met when we took daddy’s fancy plane.” “Eldest brother came back to keep me company.” Emm spoke with a bright smile as she knew what her brother was going to ask next.“Daddy was going to change his plans after you went with that bad father, but I didn’t let him.” Emm raised her chin proudly “I called Eldest brother so that I wouldn’t delay daddy’s important business.”“Little treasure is very sensible.” Chris Jnr had a doting smile as he tapped the tip of his little sister’s nose.Emm’s smile grew wider and brighter as she pointed her chin towards the sky; she was floating, her pride shooting to the skies after being acknowledged by

“Where are you taking me?” Neil asked with feigned irritation as Marcus led his through an overgrown grassy forest area which was located behind the prestigious school.“Aha….” Neil kept on with his theatrics as he feigned an enlightened expression “Are you going to demand entry to the school under the pretence that you have me as your hostage?? Are you???”“Che!!!” Marcus rolled his eyes as he increased his pace and kept 2 feet ahead of Neil.“Hey… wait for me… how can you claim to have me as a hostage if I run away?” Neil asked with a shamelessly smug face as he firmly believed his theory although his body was more honest, his legs kept up Marcus.“It’s here.” Marcus stopped at an inconspicuous spot and leaned against the wall casually, with his hands in his pocket.“Here???” Neil looked around at the unkept environment with disgust as he walked towards Marcus.Marcus took two steps hurriedly, keeping his distance away from Neil.“Why are you moving away?” Neil asked innocently as he
Never to look back Who asked him to be my godson?
“I will get Night Vigil to charter the trip to Uncle Neil’s place.” Marcus was about to get up when Emm pulled him back as she hit her forehead with an expression that was midway between helpless and ridicule “My dear eldest brother, where do you think my daddy’s appendages will be when he is in trouble?”“You mean ….” Marcus eyes widened “Uncle Neil is here…”Emm nodded with an all-knowing expression, but added “Not exactly… I mean they are not here, but they are at Royale Lux.”“Let’s go.” Marcus led the way whistling, without feeling even the slightest bit of embarrassment after being ridiculed by his little sister.“Why are you here?” Neil grumbled as soon as he saw Marcus, on opening the door.“And I am not alone.” Marcus chuckled as he entered, revealing Emm who was hiding behind him. Although Emm boasted shamelessly that she was going to charm Neil with her cuteness, she was still scared; she held onto Marcus’s shirt as she hid behind him and peeped cautiously towards Neil.“God
Never to look back Who bullied my little treasure?
The next morning as everyone sat for breakfast, Emm dialled Marcus-“Eldest brother…” She pouted as she called out in grievance as soon as he answered.“What’s wrong?” Marcus’s concerned voice came from the other end.“Nothing…um…um…” Emm sniffled as she shook her head.Chris stopped eating as he walked up to his little treasure and carried her in his arms and cuddled her; he didn’t need to ask to know what was wrong. His treasures had never been separated. He leaned forward and whispered, “Daddy is not going. Daddy will postpone the trip.”“But that is an important thing.” Emm blinked innocently.“Nothing is more important than my treasures.” Chris smiled reassuringly as he gently smoothed her back.“Eldest brother, little treasure is all alone and is not happy. Can you come to accompany me?” Emm blinked innocently as she spoke into the phone; she didn’t forget to complain “Big brother went with that bad man yesterday; he didn’t care about little treasure.”“Eldest brother will be the
Never to look back Don’t rub salt on your mother’s wound.
Chris Jnr sat silently starring out the window as they drove to the airport. Daniel tried to start a conversation with him many times, each time failing miserably.“Daddy will never give up on you like others… after all I am your biological father. Not everyone can replace me.” Daniel started the conversation once again, after boarding the flight.“Whatever.” Chris Jnr didn’t even spare him a glance as he looked outside the window once again.“I know you are feeling sad but don’t hold it in.” Daniel tried to comfort and at the same time, he didn’t forget to sling mud at Chris “Being a father is a big commitment, it’s hard for someone without any blood ties to hold on to such a commitment. Don’t blame him.”“Whatever.”“Your mother is already upset with everything that’s happened and feels really bad and guilty.” Daniel didn’t forget to brain wash along the way. How hard could it be to steer the thoughts of a six-year-old?“Don’t bring up the past and hurt her.” Daniel shrugged empathet
Never to look back Even if you send me away, I will find my way back to where you are…. my home is where daddy is.
“I don’t want to play word games with you...” Daniel huffed as he tried to rein his temper. What he really wanted to do was beat up the smug, insufferable man before him who thought he was king of the jungle. Wonder what Daniel would do if he knew that Chris would not even need one hand to beat him to a state that even his mother wouldn't recognise him? Wonder how colourful Daniel's face would be if he knew that Chris was not king of the jungle but he is the legendary Lord of the Night? However, as they say, ignorance is bliss and this was Daniel's current state.“Not that you’d win even if you tried.” Chris smirked “But I really can’t bear to keep looking at your obnoxious face any longer than I have to. So please, is there anything else?”“What could I want from you other than the divorce that my lover requested and our kids?” Daniel spoke with an extremely disgusted expression. Their disgust for each other was mutual.“Your kids??” Chris hooked his lips as he taunted “Does Mr Holsto

“That reminds me, how is Emile? Any news?” Master finished his bowl of soup and asked about the matter that he was most concerned about.“Don’t ask about her.” Min scowled; both his and Lai-Li’s face darkened at the mention of Emile.“Why? Didn’t you two like them?”“Not anymore.” Min turned his head resentfully while Lai-Li lowered her head.“What exactly happened?” Master asked anxiously “Is she in trouble?”“She is trouble.” Min grumbled refusing to speak.“Min had gone to take a look…” Lai-Li spoke in a downcast tone “She seems to have gone back to her ex. She is not with the youngest master Walter anymore.”“What???” Master asked in shock, before shaking his head in denial “Something is terribly wrong. It cannot be like that…. It won’t….”“I don’t want to believe it either.” Lai-Li pouted “But Min saw that man swaggering in and out of the ancestral house of the Walter after passing on Emile’s request for divorce.”“No… I need to check on them… something isn’t right…” Master tried
