Never to look back Meet the family (3)
Mark called for the waiters to bring breakfast over once everyone moved on from the sensitive topic of discussion. The staff arrived promptly and started serving a sumptuous breakfast. Everyone including Darcy started eating without waiting for Eva and Amanda to get back; It would be more apt to say that no one missed them.“How long are you staying?” Christopher asked once breakfast was out of the way.“If you are getting married within the week. We will stay back.” Elizabeth had a naughty smile on her face before it faded and she pouted with a sad expression “If not, we will leave in the afternoon.”Christopher rolled his eyes at his mom’s pathetic acting, but the truth was gullible Emile fell for it.“Auntie why don’t you stay back for at least a day or two?” Emile tried to persuade “Won’t it be tiring to travel without resting?”Elizabeth pursed her lips with a feigned difficult expression.“I need to talk to my folks… I cannot get married without their blessing this time; I have

“What so funny?” Emile and Christopher walked in as Abbey was laughing her head off.“Boss” Night Wing stood up with a curious expression.“Mom and Dad are here with the rest.” How could Chrsitopher not know what Night Wing wanted to ask.“What?” Abbey’s mouth was open wide, enough to fit a golf ball. She turned to look at Emile anxiously but relaxed after seeing her carefree attitude. “How was it?”“They are very nice.” Emile smiled.“So???????” Abbey dragged the syllable by raising her eyebrows in a taunting manner.“We are officially together.” Emile smiled happily as she held Christopher’s hand contrary to his expectation. Christopher thought that Emile would be shy and was ready to make the announcement, but he didn’t get the chance. Emile stole his thunder…... Even so, his face lit up like a 1000-watt bulb.“Wow!!” Abbey cheered as she jumped up and hugged Emile. She was so happy…. Happy that Emile could have her happily ever after.“What next?” Abbey asked after their emotions

The gynecologist, Dr Chesterfield, was an experienced lady in her early sixties. She patiently explained all the test results followed by all the dos and don’ts. Christopher listened studiously; He recorded what the doctor said on his phone.He even double and triple checked with the doctor about the food she could eat, the things she could and couldn’t do. Dr Chesterfield also didn’t show any impatience and patiently explained no matter how many times Christopher asked.“Stop asking.” Emile tugged Christopher’s hands in embarrassment.“It’s fine.” Dr Chesterfield laughed good naturedly “This is how a responsible husband should be.”“Doctor, I forgot to ask, how many months?” Emile asked shyly.“You don’t know?” Dr Chesterfield’s eyes widened in surprise.Both Christopher and Emile shook their heads wh: Emile mumbled softly “I didn’t even know I was pregnant till 2 days ago.”“That’s truly rare.” Dr Chesterfield continued seeing the couple's confused gaze “Usually people show signs

Christopher woke Emile while Night Wing was responsible for getting Abbey to the door.“Baby, let’s go for our last activity for this holiday.” Christopher stood at the door with a doting smile as he looked at the sleepy woman who was pouting in dissatisfaction although his heart was filled with anxiety and anticipation.“Is it even morning?” Emile asked as she rubbed her eyes.“Soon…. Let’s hurry. Abbey is waiting at the front entrance.” Christopher lied without blushing.Night Wing didn’t have Christopher’s patience. He knocked on the door and walked in without waiting to be invited in and sat down impolitely “Hurry up or we will go without you.”“You dare?” Abbey growled before rushing into her room to change without thinking. In her defense, she wasn’t fully awake; otherwise, she would have retorted “who wants you to wait. I will go with Emile.”Soon they were all seated in the complimentary ride from Celestial tours and heading towards the airport. Although both the ladies were cu

The smile on Emile’s face lingered even after they reached back at the hotel. She sat in a daze as she watched Christopher busy himself with packing both his and her stuff while Night Wing went to complete the checkout procedures. Abbey didn’t have anything to do as she had already packed the day before, so she brought all her luggage and sat with Emile on the sofa showing off all the pictures she had taken in the morning. Emile however wasn’t paying any attention; she was still sitting with a silly smile following Christopher with her gaze. “Am I dreaming?” Emile whispered in a low voice to Christopher once they got in the car. Both of them were sitting in the back seat while Abbey was sitting in the passenger seat. “Does it hurt?” She asked as she pinched Christopher without waiting for him to respond to her previous question. “Um” Christopher nodded with a doting smile as he looked at the silly expression. “Does that mean we are really engaged?” Emile kept smiling. “Um… too la

Everyone sat huddled cosily in the lounge area discussing their plans after the ruckus quietened down. Abbey didn’t feel out of place at all, even though she was sitting in the background without making any contributions; the Walters made sure of that.Adam and Elizabeth wanted to get back immediately considering Lan’s condition was severe and so after discussing for more than an hour they decided that all the family members other than Christopher and group would head back tomorrow. They decided to go on a tour of their winery after lunch in order to spend some quality time with everyone.While everyone was discussing what their travel plans downstairs, upstairs-“What do you think you are doing?” Eva spoke sharply as soon as they entered the room and closed the door; the charming affectionate smile that she had plastered on, was nowhere to be seen.“Auntie… I…” Mandy lowered her head. She didn’t know what to say. She didn’t expect her aunt to question her harshly; she expected her au

After lunch, the butler announced that the hostess for their winery tour would arrive in an hour and a half. Everyone dispersed to their rooms for getting ready. Christopher led Emile and Abbey to his private apartment within the manor. The Manor had into seven private apartments, one for each member and guest apartments to hosting events. Each private apartment had five bedrooms, lounge, kitchen and dining area complete with a private garden. “I will go with Chris, since we are of the same age group. It will be more fun for everyone.” Amanda stood up to follow Christopher. “I have told you several times to call me Christopher.” Christopher’s steps paused as he turned around to face Amanda “Also, we are not of the same age group and it is not convenient for me and my fiancée.” “Hymph” Amanda pouted as she pointed at Abbey “Well, isn’t she coming.” “She is my guest… I decide where she stays.” Christopher pursed his lips in displeasure before turning to Darcy “Second brother, would y

“Your man?” A cold voice sounded.Amanda didn’t have to turn to see who the owner of the voice was. She shivered inwardly but didn’t cower. She bit her lips and looked pitifully at Christopher.Christopher hugged Emile comfortingly and spoke in a gentle voice “Baby, are you okay?” He looked at her in concern noting that she didn’t register his presence.Emile didn’t register Christopher’s words nor his presence; Amanda’s words echoed in her heard, everything else was a blur. She couldn’t stop herself from wallowing in self-doubt. She wondered if she made the same mistake again.As her thoughts were starting to spiral out of control, she heard Christopher’s gentle voice and felt his warm embrace….but that wasn’t right… he was in the study dealing with pending work commitments. She raised her eyes that were filled with confusion to stare into a passionate gaze “Huh?”“Baby, I am here.” He comforted gently massaging her back till he saw colour returning to her face.“I am fine.” Emile ra

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
