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
“Why is grandpa grumpy?” Carson, the youngest son of Micheal, Adam’s stepbrother asked once only the younger generation was left in the main hall. He wasn’t aware of the drama that had unfolded before his arrival. “Chris wants to marry the abandoned lady of the Burke house.” Vanessa sat lazily on the lounge admiring her nails. “Mind your language.” Chris narrowed his eyes while Sheryl feigned ignorance and opened her eyes wide in shock. “Chris… Chris…” Sheryl extended her hand to pull Chris’s hand in a spoiled child act but was left hanging her hand in air as Chris side-stepped without giving her a chance. She adjusted her awkwardness gracefully as she asked “Chris, what is Vanessa talking about? How come I didn’t know?” “If you need to know what Vanessa said, ask her. I am not her mouthpiece.” Chris didn’t give her any face as he responded coldly. He continued with a chill in his voice that scared even his own sisters “Who are you that I need to update you regarding my life decisi
Everyone dispersed to their rooms shortly after the elders left. The east wing of the house was occupied by Micheal’s family, the west wing reserved for Dorothy’s family, north wing was reserved for Adam’s family and south wing for Rebecca’s family. In the middle of the night, a dark slender figure sneaked out from the main building and walked straight to the north wing. The figure paused for a minute as though making sense of the layout of the building and then stealthy walked over to the last room at the end of the corridor. The figure opened the door and walked in without the slightest hint of hesitation. The muffled sound of a suppressed groan could be heard in the silence of the night; through the moonlight drifting into the room, one could be an outline of a restless man lying on the large mahogany bed. The slender figure got on the bed and hugged the man without a shred of reservation and whispered gently “Let me help you. Let me be your antidote.” The man seemed to be confli
