Never to look back Hold your horses
Grandpa Walter, Michael and Silas were dressed in power suits commanding the respect and attention of everyone they meet. They walked into the meeting room in unison as a show of power, in an attempt to intimidate everyone. However, to their utter disappointment, there was no one in the meeting room.They looked at each other in confusion before Silas turned towards his assistant “Where’s everyone?”“They are on their way.”Silas frowned in annoyance as he sat on the left side of his grandfather who took the central seat; Michael didn’t have much of an existence even though he was sitting on the right side of his father.“Keep an eye on the person who bought the shares from the military.” Grandpa Walter instructed his son (grandson) in a low voice as he kept his eye on the door. “See if you can take down those shares.”“Will we have enough funds once we take down the rest of the shares?” Silas asked in concern; right now, his major concern was taking down the lion’s share of the shares

“Hold your horses”Everyone’s gazes automatically went to the door although the emotions in them were mixed.Grandpa Walter’s eyes widened in shock and raised his head as he heard the sound that was buried deep in his memory. Although the sound had been tempered by the years that passed by, he would never forget this voice… the voice that vowed to bare the ugly heart that he hid behind the façade of a loving husband and son-in-law, in front of everyone… the voice that was filled with vengeance, the voice that vowed to see not just his destruction but to also uproot his entire generation before closing his eyes….He had thought that this voice had disappeared into the pages of history.Grandpa Walter fell back in shock as he saw the face that haunted his nights for more than half a century; he hurriedly wiped the large beads of sweat that appeared on his forehead as he tried to calm his tumultous heart. He tried to regain his composure by trying to take a sip of water, however, other tha

“Wife, you… where have you been? Have you been well?” Rufus finally found his voice and asked with a loving expression ignoring the bickering in the background.“Wife?” Michael turned to look at his father in shock. Previously he had heard his father muttering, but he just assumed that it was a senseless mistake.“Who is your wife?” Bridgette spoke sharply as she looked pointedly at Rufus “Didn’t she die about 45 odd years ago?”Neither Adam nor his kids nor the Burkes made a sound; they all had the attitude of watching a show.“Wife… you were terribly sick. I tried to get you the best medical help there was at that time…. before your brother abducted you…….. I searched everywhere for you...... I had no choice…… Adam needed a mother, the public needed an answer…..” Rufus explained with a helpless expression that was filled with grief as he immersed himself into his make-believe persona.“What a shame!” Eric exclaimed, sighing regretfully “Such textbook acting and yet there is no camera

"Officer, you have to uphold the law of this land and help me...."“That is what we are here for.” The young officer responded politely "however we cannot act based on one side of the story.” He turned towards Everett “Sir, would you like to add anything to the charges against you?”“I am not sure why my ex-brother-in-law and his sons would behave in such a way unless they are bandits who think that crying out bandit first would exonerate them.” Everett sighed with a helpless expression.“I guess he doesn’t want to give up the chair, as simple as that.” Eric snorted impolitely from the background as he threw a disgusted gaze towards the beast, he called grandfather all his life.“What nonsense are you talking about?” Rufus finally recovered his wits. He knew that the only way out was to play along with Silas.“My wife disappeared 45 years ago. How can I accept it when a lady suddenly barges in and tells me that she is my wife?” Rufus shook his head with a distraught expression “My wife

Inside the folder, below all the share transfer and share ownership documents was a DNA test report confirming the identity of Bridgette, comparing a sample taken from her in real-time with that of a sample that was stored in the DNA bank for Bridgette Walter and confirming that the sample belonged to the same person. There was also a document where the relationship between Adam and Bridgette was tested; results confirming mother-son relationship.“This will suffice for the time being.” The young officer nodded and turned towards Silas “Sorry sir, I don’t have enough grounds to substantiate your complaint. If you still have doubts, please file a case with the precinct and then we can do a more thorough investigation.”“Apologies for the inconvenience.” The young officer apologized towards Everett before turning to walk out with his colleagues.“Officer, considering you are here….” Everett opened his mouth with a polite smile on his face “and considering how treacherous their thoughts a

Michael and Silas had moved from their seats along with Rufus and taken the seats that were left vacant on the left side of the table. They looked at the faces of Adam and the rest with jealousy and anger. Silas eyes rowed from one person to the other as he planned his next move. He didn’t want to take this indignation lying down; he still didn’t think he did anything wrong.Unlike Rufus, who had a defeated expression, Silas sat upright as he calculated in his head. They had collectively gathered 200 million in cash in order to bid for the shares that were going to be released. He was confident in his abilities, he was confident that even if he started a small company with a portion of the funds, he would one day have the strength to stand opposite his cousins and pay back all the humiliation he suffered today.“Sir, is there any other order of business or should I close the floor for this meeting?” Matthew asked as he stood up once again.“You are dismissed from your duties as the chi

“Wife, I truly didn’t know you were alive or where you were?” Rufus spoke with a heartbroken expression without giving Bridgette a chance to speak. He stood up as he walked slowly towards Bridgette fiddling the bloodstone ring on his finger on the sly.“I have looked everywhere for you for months together after your brother abducted you… I swear.” He raised his hand to the heavens as he spoke.“You are truly shameless.” Bridgette shook her head with a disgusted smile; she turned her head to look away.“Wife, let’s not make a scene in front of outsiders.” Rufus reached out his hand and turned her face towards him as he knelt beside to Bridgette. He stared into her eyes as he ordered “Tell them you are not bothered with that little bit of money. Let’s go home.”Bridgette stared into his eyes, at a loss, not knowing what to do. Just as Rufus’s lips were curling into a victorious smile, he heard her sneer.“Che! You think too beautifully.” Bridgette pushed his hand and kicked him away.“I

Rufus’s eyes sparkled with madness as he saw the bug fluttering his wings and rising in the air, flying towards Bridgette however in the next second the bug self-ignited in a small flame and fell to the ground. No one noticed the spark that flew from the tips of the Night Lord’s fingers and attacked the poor bug, burning it to ashes.Emile’s eyes widened as she saw the whole thing unfold before her eyes. She turned to look at her husband, who sat with the same indifferent expression. She wouldn’t have believed it if she didn’t see it with her own eyes. She stared at her husband in admiration.Chris turned to look at Emile as he felt her burning gaze on him. He never intended to hide from her, the only reason he never divulged was to keep her safe. He blinked as he smiled innocently. She returned the gesture although her face turned pink after being caught peeking; she rested her head on his shoulders. She didn’t need to know anything that he didn’t want to tell her. She also knew that

Never to look back I will build my own destiny, like my daddy
“This has nothing to do with my daddy. We are the ones who bought our mommy back.” Chris Jnr stood tall as he crossed his arms and looked at Grandpa Holston in anger; Emm, too had the same expression, her face red with anger. If it was another occasion, everyone would have laughed looking at the 1-inch dwarfs who were protecting their daddy behind them. “Great grandpa…. didn’t….” Grandpa Holston couldn’t bear to see the accusatory anger in the eyes of his most precious great grandchildren; he could bear anything; he was ready to bear the curses of the whole world when he decided to close his eyes towards his grandson’s action, but he didn’t factor in his great grandchildren. “You know what you did.” Chris Jnr retorted without giving him any face; his daddy, mommy and little treasure were his bottom line. “I don’t think you want me to glorify it by spelling it out for you.” “Big treasure….” Chris called out, a restraining command in his tone. “Hymph!” Chris Jnr hmphed as he turned

“The old master Holston is here.” The butler announced breaking Chris and Henry’s stalemate, “Can daddy’s big treasure go and play with the others?” Chris asked in a gentle voice. Big treasure pouted, clearly refusing to walk away as he knew what great grandpa was here for. He hesitated for a minute before resolutely shaking his head in refusal and ditching Chris for the first time since he was born and walked over to take a seat on the sofa all by himself, with his head held high and lips pursed stubbornly. Just as Chris was thinking about how to coax big treasure, he heard another set of tiny steps pitter pattering towards him; his heart literally sank as he turned around to face the culprit. He could face almost anything that life throws at him without batting an eyelid except for these two little ancestors…. He was bound to be at loss, every single time. “Is little treasure late?” Emm asked Chris Jnr worriedly, without sparing a glance at her daddy and unreliable mommy. “I hea

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
