“Stop right there….” Grandpa Walter’s thunderous roar cut through the blissful atmosphere interrupting Adrian’s introduction.

Adrian paused, turning to look at Chris; Chris gestured him to stand down. He wanted to see how low his grandpa could stoop. He wanted to be able to give up on the last straw of familial entanglement. He squeezed Emile’s hand and gave her a comforting look.

“Senior Mr Walter, what’s the problem?” One of the reporters that he brought along with him asked seeing that no one took his bait and didn’t respond to his previous outburst.

“I don’t approve of this wedding.”

“This is a free society; the groom and bride are both of the legal age where the law permits them to exercise free will.” One of the guests spoke out in justice.

“My grandson, I decide who he marries.”

Adam was about to retort when he was stopped by Elizabeth who gestured him to look over to Chris. Chris shook his head restraining him from speaking.

  • Never to look back   I will be jealous if you keep staring at other women even if they are clowns.

    "Why would I want to do something senseless?" Superintendent Registrar’s lips curled in ridicule “Why would I want to ask for objection of a registered union?” “Regis… Registered????” Grandpa Walter stuttered as he stepped back; he raised his head to level gaze with the Superintendent Registrar and asked in a voice that lost all its vigour “Registered Union?” “Looks like Senior Mr Walter is not very popular at home.” Superintendent Registrar spoke lightly as he sat down calmly not bothering with Senior Mr Walter anymore. Although he didn’t agree with the old man’s judgement and methods, he still felt sorry for the man who stood in front of everyone like a clown. Anyone with a little bit of sense would know who the better choice between Miss Burke and Miss Shelby was. Not just Senior Mr Walter, even the Walters and the Burkes were shocked, but they soon calmed down. To the Burkes, it was an a testament of Chris’s intelligence, foresight and commitment to Emile, they were convinced

  • Never to look back   Who is the culprit?

    Going back in time, to when Chris had finished answering the call with Eric 2 days ago- “What’s wrong?” Emile walked up to Chris and hugged him as she saw his taut expression once he came back after the call. She had noticed that he had stayed outside for a while even after he finished the call. “Would you want to marry me regardless of our family’s acceptance?” “Yes” “Then, shall we go and get married today?” Chris asked cautiously. “We do have the permit to register as of yesterday.” Chris added seeing that Emile didn’t respond. “We can still have the reception day after tomorrow as planned.” Chris was feeling anxious with every passing minute. He felt like he was going to be robbed of his dream after it was given to him at arm’s length. “Puchi…” Emile giggled mischievously “Why are you anxious?” “Why are you not responding?” “You didn’t give me a chance.” Emile shrugged smiling “Let’s go. It doesn’t matter if it’s one day before or after.” Chris and Emile didn’t dawdle any

  • Never to look back   Did you forget who initiated the whole mess?

    Sheryl wandered around the streets like a lost soul in a daze after she left the reception venue; she struggled with every ounce of her willpower to hold it together till she sent Grandpa Walter off. She had no idea how she had reached this stage. She had planned every step meticulously; done everything meticulously and yet she lost…. Lost miserably to an abandoned woman! Sheryl couldn’t accept the fact that Chris chose Emile over her. She wanted to belittle Emile by saying that the only reason Chris chose her was because she had the Burke industries backing her, but she knew better. She knew something that even Grandpa Walter and the others didn’t know; she knew that he was the mysterious boss of the most promising business empire, Evergreen heights. He didn’t need to rely on backing; he didn’t even rely on his father’s backing, the backing of Walters Empire which held the economic lifeline of almost every country in the continent; not even when he was starting his venture. How co

    Burkes residence at the same time was lively and full of joy. Chris and Emile finished recounting everything that happened in the past two days that led them to make the decision to get married earlier when Adam and rest of the Walter mob arrived. “Dad, why are you here?” Chris asked in surprise as he saw the guests that had just arrived. “I invited them so that we can have a get together before you guys fly out.” Matthias laughed without giving Adam a chance to respond. The older men sat in the formal lounge while the younger generations walked into gaming area with the pool table; the women went upstairs to gossip, when it comes to gossip, there was no generational gaps for the Burkes, this suited the Walter women as well. Veronica updated the Emile and the Burke women about the gossip that went on in the Walter house. She liked this sister-in-law of hers who was neither servile nor overbearing, just the right amount of arrogance that sat well with her taste. “Oh dear” Agatha si

  • Never to look back   Happy Cooperation

    Emile and Chris landed in Finland 4 hours later. Although Emile was curious about Chris’s choice of landing in Finland, she didn’t question him. She trusted him unconditionally. She could feel his care and concern for her in his every breath. Under the cover of the night sky, two cars rode into a quaint cottage in the quiet countryside. No one had the energy to explore their surroundings after being exhausted by the excitement of the day and the journey. Emile had already fallen asleep in Chris’s embrace in the car. Chris carried her into their room while Night Wing settled Abbey into her room before settling down himself. However, not everyone was as peaceful as them. Silas thrashed everything in the room before he could control the rage in his heart. He couldn’t believe how ruthless Chris could be. He didn’t even care about their family’s face when he released those embarrassing videos. He didnt stop to think that this was what they had prepared for Chris. Soon under the guidance

    “Tell me, what do you intend to do?” Silas leaned forward as his lips curled up flirtatiously. “How long do you think they can be proud if they have internal conflict?” Sheryl smiled sweetly; No one would think that this woman was talking about something sinister with such an expression. “Heh! Dream on” Silas laughed. He knew his cousins best; nothing could come between them. “Don’t be too quick to judge.” Sheryl wasn’t annoyed; She swirled her drink lazily as she asked, “What do you think is Uncle Adam’s bottom line?” “Auntie Elizabeth.” Silas didn’t have to think. “What do you think is Chris’s weak point?” She asked again. “How in the devil would I know?” Silas grumbled as he downed his drink in anger. “Think…” Sheryl prompted as she hinted “Who did he disregard you all for?” “Emile?” “Bingo” Sheryl’s smile widened but it didn’t have the charm that a woman’s smile should have but it was rather scary. “Now, think what would happen if there was a conflict between the two?” Sh

    Daniel did travel all the way to Royale Lux the next day. Just as Sheryl predicted, he did miss catching up to her. Although he felt frustrated, he calmed himself and asked the reception staff for more information. He pretended to be a good friend of Emile’s who was meant to be catching but with her but got delayed by personal circumstances. The receptionist, who was already charmed by Daniel, didn’t see past his lie. She assumed that such a good-looking man wouldn’t lie. She naively told him that they had checked out the night before yesterday. Daniel couldn’t do anything other than leave the place feeling depressed. Naturally Daniel’s visit and the sorry plight that he left the premises was transmitted to Sheryl through the men she had left to follow Daniel. Her lips curled up as she calculated the time it would take for Daniel to put away his arrogant expression and come crawling to her, begging for cooperation. However, for now, this seemed liked a pretty dream; Sheryl had not co

    Streaks of light sneaked into the room through the gap in the edges of the curtain like dancing golden ribbons; it gently graced the two people who were snuggled blissfully in each other’s embrace. It seemed like there was no room for a third person in this blissful world. The golden ribbons didn’t want to give up just like that. It increased its warmth and brightness gently dancing on their faces. The man’s hands moved, blocking the intruding from gracing his beloved; at the same time, he opened his eyes and squinted them at the curtains as if to reprimand them for their carelessness. It was only then that he realized that they had truly overslept; even so, he had no intention of waking the beauty in his arms. His lips curled into a blissful smile as he held the woman he loved in his arms. As he thought of last night, he felt regretful about his beastly nature and didn’t want to disturb his wife’s sleep even more. Last night, everyone was exhausted, and they called it a night and re

Naturally, the apparition although only a figment of Azure’s consciousness, it will still be sharp enough to sense a friend from a foe.

    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

    “What did you say?”“Daddy, don’t be stressed.” Big treasure winked towards little treasure as he coaxed in a soft voice “Daddy, Big treasure has been taking care of empress since he went over, before that…” He sighed in relief in an adult like tone “Luckily the empress’s brain was working before I got there…hehe…. hehe…” He laughed trying to ease his daddy’s anxiety “So, our sibling must be fine.” Both big treasure and little treasure nodded at the same time with a sincere face; little treasure had no idea what big treasure was talking about, but she too nodded in all seriousness, looking at the anxiousness in her daddy’s eyes, all she wanted to do was comfort him.“Chris, son what is big treasure talking about?” Elizabeth asked anxiously unable to make heads or tails out of the conversation.Chris turned around to look at who was closest to him; he stuffed little treasure into Marcus’s and big treasure into Night Wing’s hands before rushing to the door. He knew how dangerous it was f

    “Tell me, how did you entangle the mess?” Raphael asked once everyone settled after dinner. Everyone turned their curious gaze towards Chris as this was the thought reverberating in their heads from the moment they heard about the wedding.Everyone in the room were prevue to the inside story; they all knew about Emile rekindling her affection for Daniel and denouncing Chris although they didn’t know the details. Even the kids turned their attention curiously towards Chris.“I cannot take credit for this one.” Chris scratched the back of his head with a sheepish smile. “This time, the credit belongs to my kids.”“Them???” Harry’s eyes widened in disbelief as he pointed towards Big treasure and Little treasure.“Me included.” Marcus sidestepped taking a step closer to the treasures, bringing himself in the frame together with them “Little uncle said his kids… that includes me.” He added defiantly as everyone started laughing at his comical actions of sidestepping to bring himself within

    “Yeah… why is only little baby getting a reward?” Marcus stretched his legs, skating towards Chris, leaving Beth who was rolling her eyes at Marcus who was competing with a 1-inch dwarf for attention, leaving her far behind in a heartbeat. Chris didn’t answer but lifted his eyebrows in an expression that meant ‘go figure’. “I could have gotten them out, but I knew their principle and didn’t interfere.” Marcus shrugged as an afterthought “Actually I knew they could have escaped if they wanted without my help.” “Right… and where were you?” Chris asked with a chuckle as he gently tapped his forehead, although the questioning didn’t have even the slightest hint of denunciation, it did not excuse him of his accountability. Marcus scratched the back of his head with a sheepish smile as he pointed towards the sofa that he was having a sweet time with Beth. He twisted his lips as he thought of the deeper meaning behind the question; he knew his little uncle would never ask such a question

    “Ha…ha…ha….” Emile burst out laughing as soon as she entered the main lounge, forgetting all her resentment towards the injustice of bullying her son. The scene that entered her eyes was too comical to say the least.Chris Jnr, Bruno and Emm were sitting in the middle with the Burke brothers guarding around them in a tight circle. The Walter siblings were in the outer ring neither guarding nor helping; the only exception was Marcus who was sitting on the couch chatting with Beth in a leisurely manner. What was comical about the entire scene was Bruno who looked like a red puffer fish, unable to swallow his grievance of failure.Emm wasn’t happy either, but she just sat with her lips puckered, enduring, unlike Bruno who had obviously given up listening to Chris Jnr and was yet jumping up and down, protesting against the injustice he was subjected to.“Daddy…” Both Chris Jnr and Emm jumped up on hearing Emile’s voice. They knew that if mommy was here, Daddy would always follow.No one kn

  • Never to look back   Can you give me some face in front of my wife?

    Chris and Emile didn’t have any difficulty sneaking out from under the watchful eyes of the press nor the guests…they had a genius son who had mapped everything to the dot for making their most important day picture perfect. It was so magical that both, Chris and Emile were afraid that it was a dream, and reality would kick in once they woke up; Both had to agree that it was better than what either of them could have imagined even in their wildest dreams.As they sat in the getaway car, Emile kept pinching Chris and asking him “Hubby, does it hurt?” while Chris kept answering “Wife, I am too excited to feel pain.” His answer wasn’t helping but there was nothing anyone could do, no one could understand their mental state unless they had been in the same situation.Once the excitement calmed down, Emile rested in Chris’s embrace with a blissful smile, her mind unwinding, relishing the mad rush or rather excitement from yesterday evening till the moment she saw Chris climbing into the bas

    “I know you are married…” the man who answered previously spoke once again, the helplessness in his voice reverberating through the hall “but I have never seen you with Mrs Walter and I have always seen you with Ms Bell, who was your companion for banquets and social dinners. I have no reason to doubt your words when you introduced her this morning although it did seem a bit redundant.” He shrugged opening his palms upward.“No… no….no… this is all wrong…” Daniel shook his head in disbelief as he took a step back.“How can it be wrong?” Chris Jnr’s stern voice rang through the hall, loud and clear, filled with rage “Didn’t you like playing mind games?”“Can you not take it when you are on the receiving end?” Emm too asked in righteous anger; her mommy forgot her for 2 whole months.“You…. you bastard… you stole my wife…” Daniel roared without registering what Chris Jnr and Emm said and lunged towards Chris, who was standing with a relatively calm expression, although his brows were sli
