Chris decided to postpone the trip for accepting Dupont’s offer till after the wedding and head to his homebase after being convinced by Emile. He called and informed Dupont about the change in their plans and made sure that there were no problems at his end. They had lost 3 weeks as they waited for Night Wing to recover back to his usual form and there was only 1 week left before the date for the civil ceremony. Night Wing didn’t bother to book flights as the one that Neil came was still in the airport. They boarded and headed for their homebase without any fuss or alerting anyone. Chris had informed his family that would be stopping by the home base for work but wouldn’t be going back home. Eric informed him that they were set to fly back for his wedding 5 days later and asked him of their plans. Chris told him to come over to the homebase as he had some things to discuss. He didn’t divulge anything further no matter how Eric asked. The other intriguing thing was that Chris asked h
“I was recommended to work as a wet nurse for young master by a doctor friend of second master.” Sofia sat back looking into the distance as she went back 20 years through memory lane. “He was consulting his friend on why his wife didn’t have milk for the young master even though she had just delivered the baby.” “The doctor friend advised that it was normal for some woman to not have milk and told him to use a wet nurse. He was the person who recommended me as well.” Sofia paused with a conflicted expression before continuing- “I had just given birth to a still born baby and was finding it difficult to come to terms with it. He was the one who suggested that this would perhaps be a solution to the both of us.” “He gave your brother reassurance of my character and health and your brother took me to your sister-in-law’s ward. He introduced me to the young master and told me that my only job was to feed and take care of young master.” “At first everything was normal.” Sofia paused a
Eric wondered if his little brother was being a bit hasty, but he still trusted his brother's poisonous eye for detecting talent and held his peace. He looked on without any change in expression. Sofia clenched her fists and looked straight at Chris; she didn’t flinch even though she was extremely nervous. After what seemed like a century, she heard the little young master say – “What was your theory?” “Young master is not the madam’s child.” Sofia bit her lips and exhaled “I know what I am saying sounds crazy considering you all witnessed young master being born.” “It does” Eric’s lips curled in mockery as he added “Also, don’t tell me you doubt whether my brother is the father…. I checked.” “I don’t” Sofia shook her head “Young master looks like second master.” “What do you want me to do?” Chris narrowed his eyes as his brain was analysing the probability and possibility of what she said. “I want a new face and name.” “Um” Chris nodded thoughtfully before asking “Does your th
Eva was furious when she saw the memes on social media. She rushed to the hospital under the guise of ‘caring aunt’ to give her brainless niece a piece of her mind. But it was only when she reached the hospital, did she realize the matter was not as simple as it seemed. For once, Amanda was innocent. She was invited to the charity gala that was organized as a cocktail cruise that had all the elites of the community attending. Amanda only attended as she heard that Chris had returned and was on the cruise along with his best friend Neil. Amanda’s best friend Melanie was the one who updated Eva on what happened. Amanda was still unconscious. “Auntie Eva, I swear I don’t know why Mandy lost balance and fell into the water. At that time, I was so shocked I couldn’t think straight.” Her facial expression had the aftermath of the shock. “Everyone was standing shocked when Dr Livingston came out to the deck hearing the commotion.” She patted her chest in relief “It was only under his urgi
Eric arrived the next morning just as Chris had predicted, the only correction in his prediction was that he was not along. Diana couldn’t sit still since she heard what her man had been up to. “Is no one up yet?” Eric curiously asked the butler who led them into the main hall. There was no one in the main hall. “Young master never wakes up early if he is at home.” Hames shook his head helplessly; there was nothing anyone could do. Their young master was a force of nature, he lived in his own world and by his own rules. The only people who could influence him were the young master Walter and young master Montague. Sadly neither thought there was anything wrong with his young master! “Young master Walter has gone for his morning run and should be back soon.” Hames spoke eyeing the wall clock. “The young ladies have not woken up yet.” “Morning Hames” Chris jogged in from the outside in his trainers along with Night Wing and Night Rider as his tails as they were talking. “Morning yo
As Neil and the others sat joking, the scene at the hospital went downhill quite quickly. Eva was planning to go home as she was bored out of her skin; she didn’t have much affection for Amanda anyway, her concern and love for Amanda was all a means to an end. She picked her phone to message her brother when the machines Amanda was hooked up with began to beep and sound the warning alarm. This attracted the attention of the CEO who was on his rounds. He went to the room with his team of emergency staff even before Eva had the chance to raise the alarm. She stood in the background with a bewildered expression when the doctor in the lead turned around and asked in a stern tone “What happened in here? Wasn’t this patient’s indicator normal?” “I.... I... didn’t ...do... any...thing.” Eva stuttered as she trembled in fear. “Did I ask you? Who are you?” Graham waved his hand with an annoyed expression “Clear out all non-medical staff and relatives.” Eva stepped out with her head lowered
Back in Neil’s study, once everyone finished mucking around and settled down, Eric looked at his brother who was purposefully stalling time with a helpless expression. “What did you find out?” “No relation” Chris pursed his lips as he extended the test results towards Eric. “What if the sample we took didn’t belong to Eva?” Eric asked after a while breaking the ghostly silence that filled the room. “Yeah” Diana nodded “Someone else could have used the hairbrush and the hair we pulled out might have been someone else’s.” “How many hair strands do you need for a retest?” Night Wing walked out from the shadows. “Even half a strand will do.” Neil waved his hand and looked despondently at Night Wing however he looked at he had received a thunderstroke as he screamed “W…T…F…” Everyone followed his gaze as they heard the roar and his expression that seemed like he had been struck by thunder. “These are not contaminated. They were pulled out of her head last night and bagged.” Night Wi
2 days passed in the blink of an eye; The Walters except for Eva boarded their private plane to fly back to their homeland. Chris and his group also departed the same day; however, they travelled chartering Neil’s flight to avoid prying eyes. The arrangement was for the Walters to stay at their ancestral home with Grandpa and Grandma Walter while Chris and his group stayed at the hotel. Emile and Abbey were planning to stay at the Burke residence after the next day till the ceremony and then they were planning to fly out to Paris the same day. Emile wondered whether she should let Grandpa Holston know for a long time and still couldn’t make up her mind. “What’s wrong?” Chris smoothed her knitted brows; He had noted that she was frowning ever since they boarded the flight and had still not relaxed even after reaching the hotel. He didn’t want to intrude on her privacy, but he couldn’t help himself when he saw that she was still troubled. “I….” Emile bit her lips with a constipated e
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
Emile felt a bit anxious as she entered the room with Chris’s and Neil’s masters. Although she knew them, she wasn’t very familiar with them. She looked towards Lai-Li with an anxious gaze; Lai- Li was the only person in the group whom she knew a little better.“It will be alright.” Lai-Li comforted in a gentle voice as she saw Emile’s gaze resting on her uncomfortably.“Master Walter’s mood might get agitated and that won’t help us.” She explained patiently as she saw that the concern in Emile’s gaze hadn’t dispersed. “Neil is not used to our world, and he will be in a daze and that will not help our cause as we will need to be quick.”Although Emile didn’t fully understand, she nodded. She had seen Chris do unbelievable things before, stuff that couldn’t be explained by logic and science alone.“It will be quick. Everything will be back to normal as soon as you wake up.” Lai-Li coaxed gently as she patted her hands while Emile’s lids gradually grew heavier and finally, she closed her
“Daddy, little treasure is here.” Emm tugged Chris’s pants with grievance. She had been waiting patiently for daddy to coax little baby and carry her, but little baby had no intention of coming down.“Daddy’s little treasure is the most understanding treasure in the world.” Chris smiled as he knelt and carried Emm along with Bruno and headed to wait in front of the door.“Little brother, let me…” Darcy stepped forward extending his hands towards Chris with a sheepish smile. He wondered if he really was not cut out to be a good father; he was happily standing watching the drama unfold when Grace nudged him with a reproachful glare as she gestured with her eyes towards Bruno.“It’s okay.” Chris chuckled looking at Darcy’s embarrassment before turning his doting gaze towards his little treasure and then Bruno.Neither looked at him as they were both looking at the closed door with similar anxious expressions although the cause of their anxiety was different. Little baby’s world only had B
