“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

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 Mossel Bay, there were no details of 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.”George: “Boss, shall I ask around?”“N

    Daniel arrived in Mossel Bay with Emile and Chris Jnr after midnight and was surprised to see that despite being a small airport with the least traffic, they were functioning effectively in an orderly manner without the slightest panic or error; their flight was probably the last or one of the last to land.It didn’t take them long to clear customs and immigration; Daniel and George went over to get the luggage while Emile and Chris Jnr waited in a quiet corner.“What mischief are you up to this time?” Emile pinched Chris Jnr’s ears gently as she questioned, once she noted that Daniel had walked away, away from their range of activity.“No…. nothing…” Chris Jnr stuttered with a pink face as he tried to free himself from the empress’s claws.“Hymph” Emile hmphed unhappily as she turned away; Out the corner of her eyes, she saw Daniel was coming back.“What did you do to upset your mommy?” Daniel questioned him as soon as he came in front of them. He had seen Emile pinching Chris Jnr’s

    Marcus had the easiest job although it looked like it was the hardest; He had planned to recruit all his cousins to help him convince his family to travel to Mossel Bay however all his plans were futile as everyone was packed and ready to set off as he reached home.“Dad, where are you going?” Marcus asked in shock as he saw all the suitcases packed and lined up in the foyer of the outdoor porch at the main entrance. His heart sank as he thought about his herculean task.“I am going to attend my youngest brother’s wedding.” Darcy chuckled before offering “You can come with us, if you don’t want to miss your little uncle’s wedding.”“How did you know?” Marcus puckered his lips as he glared resentfully at his heartless father who stole his thunder.“Chee!” Darcy sneered as he rolled his eyes in disdain without even bothering to glorify the resentment with an answer.“Son, where are you going?” Mark asked with a helpless expression as he saw Marcus walking in the direction of Darcy’s vil

    Meanwhile, at the manor on the south coast-“Little master” Night Sonic walked out of his post in the shadows and knelt beside Chris Jnr who was busy on his laptop.“Um” Chris Jnr hummed without raising his head; he was busy finalizing his design of the wedding venue arrangements.“Mr Holston is back.”“What does that madman’s return have to do with me?” Chris Jnr snorted even though his fingers didn’t stop dancing on the keyboard.“Master is upstairs with Madam.” Night Sonic scratched the back of his head with a constipated expression.“So???” Chris Jnr hooked his eyebrows with a curious expression as he titled his head to look at Night sonic. His lips curled up cynically as he teased “Do you think my daddy can’t handle that lunatic?”“Handle …yes….” Night Sonic chuckled after realizing his mistake, "but that’s exactly what I am concerned about."Chris Jnr too chuckled as he imagined his daddy punching the living daylights out of the madman; he didn’t bother to take any action; he co

    “What are you little ghosts planning this time?” Abbey asked as she patted the spot next to her on the sofa, giving Amy a suggestive look, to get her claws off her little treasure. Amy reluctantly placed Emm on the sofa next to Abbey and stood dutifully behind Abbey.Little treasure stood up on the sofa, lifting her chin with a boastful look as she announced, “We are going to give daddy and mommy the wedding of the century.”“You what???” Abbey’s eyes and mouth widened in shock. She turned her head to look at Night Blade to find some signs of bluffing but there were no giveaways on his face.She patted her chests in an attempt to calm her heart that was racing faster than a formula 1 car on the racetrack. She exhaled deeply as she stuttered “Wedding … a wedding… my Little treasure …. wants to do the wedding of a century….”“My dear little treasure even a simple wedding preparation takes time...” Abbey tried to calm her little treasure “It takes months and lots of preparation to prepar

    “Tell godmother who bullied you?” Abbey sat hugging little treasure on the sofa in the lounge setting in office “Godmother will avenge you.”“Who can bully little treasure?” Emm blinked as she smiled sweetly hugging Abbey “Little treasure is so sweet; how can anyone bear to bully me?”Amy had followed Abbey into the office seeing that Night Blade had no intention of being a gentleman and staying outside. She had to make sure her boss, other than being a workaholic, her boss didn’t have any flaws; she was young anyway… she could afford to work long hours.Amy had just stepped into the office and closed the door when she heard little treasure’s words which were adorable; how could anyone relate the word arrogant to that adorable face? She stood leaning against the door, staring starry-eyed at Emm. She really wanted to hug this adorable little angel.“Yes…. yes…. my little treasure is so adorable, who could bear to?” Abbey agreed happily as she kissed little treasure. “Where is big treas

    Master and his group reached the ancestral home of the Walters the next day; deciding on the ancestral home as their destination was a no brainer considering Bai-Min had seen Chris over there 2 weeks ago. However, it wasn’t the much-anticipated reunion that the group expected. Instead, they were told by the gatekeeper that everyone had travelled to Adam’s place.Master hesitated; he didn’t want to follow everyone to Adam’s place. What he really wanted to do was to follow Azure’s aura and find Emile. His original intention was to ditch the group once they met up with Chris and find Emile by following Azure’s aura.“Master, we have to be responsible for them.” Bai-Min knew what his master was thinking and opened his mouth to dissuade his master.“Master, I am following wherever you go.” Lai-Li knew what Bai-Min was up to, so she hurriedly added before Master delegated them to chaperon the trio; once master ordered, they couldn’t refuse.“Aa….

Emile was reading a book on her bed when Chris arrived.‘Duk’ ‘Duk’ ‘Duk’Emile lifted her head to look in the direction she heard the knock in puzzlement; Who would knock on the balcony door?’Her face brightened with the sweetest smile as she saw the man she missed with all her being even though he had only left a few hours earlier, appearing in front of her. She wasn’t expecting Chris to come back anytime soon.“Hubby….” Emile ran to open the balcony as soon as she heard the knock on the balcony door and jumped into his embrace, hugging him tightly.“Missed me so soon?” Chris chuckled teasingly as he hugged her back.“Um” Emile nodded without feeling embarrassed, this was the man she loved and missed with all her heart. Why would she care about a little face?She lifted her head once her heart calmed down and settled on the bed, sitting in a comfortable position nestled in her hu

    Chris had just sent Little treasure and the rest of when his satellite phone beeped. It was a tone unique for messages from his treasures. He picked up the phone with a smile as he thought it was Little treasure urging him to work hard. His lips curled up further as he read the message; it wasn’t from Little treasure. It read-‘Daddy, the empress is on her own. I am not responsible if anything happens to your spoilt empress. I am busy.’ – Big treasure.He turned to nod towards Night Wing before leaving the manor.Daniel rushed back to his office all the while racking his brain on how to secure an invitation. His fingers paused twice as he browsed through his contacts list and reached Ron’s number, but he didn’t press down. It was more truthful to say that he didn’t have the confidence that Ron would answer his call.
