In the café, across from Walter Empire building, Daniel was sitting along with George watching the live feed fed by the surveillance camera that was attached to Amanda’s blouse as a button. What he didn't know was that he was not the only person watching the live feed, not that it would have made any difference even if he did. He did not care about what would happen to the Walters if their confidential information was exposed to their competitor; this was none of his concern.Daniel watched in jealousy with an unreconciled mind as Chris entered the room with both babies in his arms. He felt like his heart was smeared with an itchy lotion as he watched the happiness on Chris's face... that happiness should have been his! He didn’t stop to think why it wasn’t his anymore… he never once thought of his responsibility in this matter; in his mind, it was Chris who had interfered with his life and stole his wife and children… his happiness!“Che! Who are you showing off to, carrying two four-

Amanda didn’t hesitate, she ran out of the café and urged her driver to catch up to the grey Maserati car that was up ahead of them. They caught up once the Maserati stopped in front of the Galleria Victorio mall. Amanda waited in her car till Elizabeth entered the mall and got off in an unhurried manner. She followed behind Elizabeth for a while before bumping into her accidentally.“Amanda…….” Elizabeth called out hesitantly as she saw the face of the young woman she had bumped into, spilling coffee all over her coat. She wasn't sure, it had been many years since she saw this young lady.“Auntie Elizabeth...” Amanda stepped back feigning shock as she wiped the coffee stains off her coat.“What a surprise... I haven’t seen you in ages” Elizabeth smiled amiably before apologizing “I am so sorry about the coffee… how about I buy you another one?” Elizabeth tried to help with wiping off the coffee stains as she chatted.“Don’t worry… It’s just coffee.” Amanda laughed as she waved her han

Emile’s day was probably the least eventful and exciting. The client who was booked in to see her was pretty normal other than having a few weird quirks. For example, she did not like water being placed on her left, did not like flowers placed in the room she was, hated kids were some on the long list. But as a client, she was not that difficult or demanding. Her requests compared to other more agreeable clients were far too simple.“That wasn’t as hard as I anticipated.” Emile smiled as snuggled in Chris’s embrace at the end of the day with the kids playing on the carpet.“Do I take it that it went well?” Chris asked with a doting smile.“Um” Emile nodded with a smile in her eyes as she raised her head to look at Chris “I was literally basking in master’s glory. She is a huge fan of master’s designs.”“There’s nothing wrong with that…. we are family anyway.” Chris shrugged as though it was a matter of fact.“How was your day?”Chris’s lips curled up smugly as he said, “They think too

“I…… I ….” Simon stuttered; he didn’t know the answer; his first instinct was to deny; ‘Why would he chase after someone who didn’t cherish him?’ But when he opened his mouth, his answer was most tactful “Wife, you know I do terribly on hypothetical multiple-choice questions… please spare me.” He hugged her close and muttered with a smug smile “Luckily my wife has great taste, and I won’t have to face such a situation in my entire life.”“Chris isn’t bothered about these deals either.” Henry spoke once again bringing the topic back on track “the only reason he is participating is to give us face….” Henry paused before correcting himself with a chuckle “by us, I mean Emile. The bastard doesn’t give a damm about his folks, do you think he will have us in his eyes?”“How is it giving us face?” Simon grumbled “Isn’t it just cooperating? Doesn’t that mean taking benefits we each need?” Simon felt that first brother was simply adding gold on Chris’s face even though his previous misunderstan

Walter banquet was one of the biggest events hosted privately by any family; this year it was even more special as it marked the 50th year since the inception of Walter Empire, from a single storey 10 people business to its current form with 50,000 people employed across the many entities that the business was spread across and a HQ in a 26 storey building, that had become a landmark, in other words, face of the city itself.While the Walters busied themselves with the preparation of the banquet, they didn’t forget to assign some of their men with the task of hunting for the identity of the mysterious person who wanted to disrupt their peace, only Chris was the exception. He was not bothered with either task as he was run of his feet with Neil's problem. No one held it against him as they knew what he was preoccupied with; they knew they owed Neil and his master a great deal for helping them out of disaster last time. They, Walters were not an ungrateful bunch; they would pay back hund

Chris rested, closing his eyes as they flew; he kept replaying every message that was transmitted by his team to double check if he had missed anything. the journey that would normally take 10 and a half hour was covered by Chris’s men in 4 owing to the modified super speed of the chopper that they were flying in.“Boss, the reason for not receiving signals is not because this area is out of coverage of normal network.” One of Chris’s men, second in command under Night Mage, Mage 001 spoke as soon as their chopper entered the forest that was their area of interest.Chris opened his eyes and looked at Mage 001 prompting him to continue.“Boss, I am not sure how it works but master had previously mentioned it in passing. There is a technique with crystals to stop transmission of radio and electromagnetic waves.” Mage 001 spoke in a not so confident voice before nodding in confidence “But I can bet my life on the fact that there are crystals and a lot of them in the area we just passed.”

Chris listened and observed as he moved forward through the trees. The people on the ground didn’t seem to care about the ruffling of leaves on the trees; there was nothing odd about it as they were used to the wind caressing the leaves. In their carelessness, they missed the fact that there was no wind tonight.Chris made a mental note of areas where the guards were more concentrated and the loopholes in the security system around him. From the conversation of the guards, he learned that the security was heavier and more alert due to some of the prisoners escaping.He also learned that there was a shift changeover in the morning. This was the window they needed to break through their defences. He hid for a while and observed the guards for a while after noting their abnormal gait as they marched. He left with a smile on his face after he had watched enough.Chris moved stealthily towards his destination, the banyan tree where he had planned to meet up with his men once he passed the a

Everyone was waiting for him when Chris arrived at the Banyan tree; the old tree was so luscious with its branches spreading in all directions almost forming a flat ground for those gathered to sit comfortably and rest or do whatever took their fancy.“My Lord, you’re here?” Night Blade’s second in command stood as he saw Chris walking up to them. He too was dressed the same as them with the only difference being his mask where the detailing had gold in addition to purple and silver. Without the cape, in the darkness, no one could tell the difference unless they had enough time to take in the details of the face mask.Sadly, the widely known fact was, the cape less Demon Emperor was more dangerous than the one with the cape as anyone who had the luck (or bad luck) to meet the cape less Demon Emperor wouldn’t have a lifespan longer than a breath! How could one who was shocked out of skin in fear have the presence of mind to study the details of the mask?“Is the Commander General back?”

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
Never to look back You could never do what he did…
“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
Never to look back We will set everything right after this wedding.
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.
