While Emile was settling in blissfully, Daniel’s end was not so peaceful.

Daniel was frustrated at narrowly missing Emile even though he went all the way to Mauritius. He was like a loose cannon waiting to blast everyone in his path. George made sure to stay way off his firing line only daring to go forward for essential affairs that could not be avoided.

George planned to run away as soon as they touched down, but fate didn’t want to go easy on him. As soon as the plane landed on their home turf, he got a call from Michelle asking him where Daniel was. He was about to say that they have landed and were heading home when he met Daniel’s hawk eyes daring him to speak.

George’s survival instincts and EQ were high. He told Michelle that CEO was looking for him and would ask him to call back when they were free before hanging up. He stood with his head lowered not daring to meet Daniel's eyes.

“Since when have you been keeping tabs on me?” Daniel narrowed his eyes dangerously.

“Never.

  • Never to look back   I haven't changed my sexual orientation.

    Daniel wasn’t convinced even after his conversation with his grandpa. He sat staring at Emile’s pictures till he fell asleep in the wee hours of the morning. George wasn’t sure if he should wake Daniel the next morning or wait till, he woke up on his own. He was aware that Daniel didn’t sleep until late; the lights in room were still on when he came to get water at 2 am. Luckily for George, they didn’t have any meeting or work commitments booked in for the day. Daniel woke up in the afternoon, confused and disoriented. He wasn’t up to doing anything and didn’t want to go anywhere so he just holed up at George’s apartment leaving the miserable soul to not even have any space to vent his frustration. This went on for another day till Ron returned. “You’re back” George almost hugged Ron in excitement. Ron took a step back eyeing George’s enthusiasm cautiously. “I have never been so happy to see anyone in my entire lifetime.” George didn’t take any offense as he kept ushering Ron enthu

  • Never to look back   That bastard hurt you, didn't he?

    Emile started to fidget with her fingers as the taxi drove closer to the Burke estate. The Burkes had yet to split, and all three generations still lived together. The Burkes was established by her great grandfather and both he and her grandfather were the only child. The children from Emile’s generation were called out in the order of their birth. The Burkes only had male descendants tracing back a few generations; this trend was first broken by her aunt. Her grandfather had only one daughter, Auntie Pearl, Addison's mom. She was the first girl to be born in the Burke household in many generations and was naturally spoilt rotten by everyone. Her father’s elder brother Matthias Burke married Agatha from the Wells family, and they had two children, first brother Henry and third brother Harry. Second uncle, Anderson married Rosemary from the Platt family and had three children, second brother Derek, fourth brother Simon and sixth brother Timothy. Auntie Pearl’s husband, Patrick Weathe

  • Never to look back   What my fiancée wants, she gets.

    Matthias wasn’t joking when he ordered dinner to be a feast fitting a king. Dinner was prepared without sparing any cost; not only was it indulgent but also done meticulously with care; Almost all of the dishes on the table were Emile's favorite dishes.The dining room filled with laughter as the family feasted on the reunion dinner. Even the maids couldn’t help but being infected by the joyous air. Alto silently withdrew to a corner to wipe his tears without being noticed. He knew this precious little niece was the heartbeat of the entire family; he knew their heartache these past years although everyone thought they had covered it up neatly.“Today is a joyous day.” Matthias lifted his glass in toast grinning happily. His little girl had come back. His family was complete. He could now die without regrets and face his little brother without guilt.“Today, no one can stop me. I am going to drink till I drop.” Matthias pompously declared but was slapped in the face even before he could

  • Never to look back   Are you afraid of that bastard?

    Everyone settled in the family room after dinner. This was a norm for the Burke household. “What are your plans?” Matthias turned his gaze to Christopher. “I would like to get married tomorrow if possible but will follow Emile’s decision.” Christopher levelled his gaze with Matthias. “I don’t want anyone to know where I am.” Emile pouted as she saw the gazes of all her family members focussed on her. “Why? Are you scared that someone will take my sister away?” “Are you afraid of that bastard?” Both Addison and Henry asked at the same time although Addison’s question was directed at Christopher; Henry’s was directed at Emile. “Yes” Christopher nodded without hesitation “She is an extremely beautiful and intelligent woman; how can I not be afraid?” Simon and Timothy chuckled while Emile lowered her head blushing. Although the everyone’s attention was diverted by the boys mucking around, Henry kept his gaze on Emile. “Emile” Henry pursed his lips as he called out seeing that she

  • Never to look back   This is Abbey Smith signing off for the last time.

    Night Wing would be a fool to not know that they were set-up by now; the crew in the boat would not rescue them. He knew that their best chance of survival was to hold on till his men arrived. Fighting three great whites head-on was not a wise choice, nor was it ethical to kill these great beasts that were being manipulated. He gestured Abbey to convey that swimming to the surface was not advantageous for them and asked her to take cover behind the cage. Poor Abbey, even though she was scared senseless, she refused to leave Night Wing behind. She pulled him and gestured to go with her. Night Wing shook his head. He knew that if they both left that would only attract the shark’s attention. This was the only way to get the crazy woman to safety till his men arrived. Night Wing noted that the sharks were still trying to resist the disturbance and although moving chaotically they didn’t have any intention to attack. He slowly put the knife back into his belt and took out a crossbow that

  • Never to look back   How can I bear him to be hurt so many times?

    Abbey was just about to pass out when she heard the sound of a helicopter approaching them, but she didn't even have the strength to wave. She struggled to keep themselves above water in hope that someone would find them. Abbey didn't know when or how they reached her. Just as she felt like she was going to go under, a hand stretched out to pull them out. She fainted soon after she handed Night Wing over to them. She couldn't hold on any longer; she was satisfied that he could be saved. Luckily for Abbey, the ones who came were Christopher's men, Night Wing's subordinates. They were rushing over after receiving the distress signal. Although it looked like eternity to Abbey, it was only 30 minutes from when Night Wing send the signal. However, the response time was still slow by their standards. But there was nothing they could do. Getting their hands on resources in a foreign land was not easy. They quickly performed first aid as they set the course for the best hospital in the coun

  • Never to look back   Just compensate me with some deserts

    Emile and Christopher arrived in Mossel Bay unaware of the storm Amanda brewed for them back home nor the troubles that Abbey and Night Wing were in. Christopher was curious when he couldn't get through to Night Wing, but he was so happy thinking about how he was so close to marrying the love of his life and didn't delve on not being able to get in touch with Night Wing. Night Rider had left a message for Night Wing informing him of their arrival. He was surprised when he didn't see Night Wing waiting for them in the priority lounge as he usually did on the odd occasion that Boss didn't take him along. Alarm bells rang in his head as he noted that no arrangements were made for their pick-up. He called one of the other subordinates that were left here with Night Wing. Night Rider was shocked by what he heard and hung up after asking where they were. He quickly updated Christopher and waited politely by his side waiting for instructions. Christopher knitted his brows "Let's head to th

    “Dring…. Ring….Dring…” The phone kept ringing. “Hello” Christopher picked up the call with knitted brows. “Chris, where are you?” Mark’s deep voice came from the other end; The worry laced within was not hard to detect. “I just got back to Mossel Bay.” Christopher paused before asking “What happened eldest brother?” “That….” Mark didn’t know what to say. All the women in the family, including his mother, their wives and sisters were looking anxiously at him. “Chris, hold on.” Mark turned to his family that staring at him holding their breath “Mom, he is fine. He just got back from a work trip. I will go next door and discuss the Treger Merger with him since I have got the bugger on call.” Mark laughed lightly as he tried to ease the tension that was filling up in the room. “So, you’re saying he is fine?” Elizabeth asked with weepy eyes. “Um” Mark nodded reassuringly “Mom, do you want to talk to him?” “No… no… what’s there to talk?” Elizabeth waved her hands and added “Tell him

  • Never to look back   We will set everything right after this wedding.

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…. Hai…” Master sighed, shaking his head resent

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. He had tried several times without success to reach him in the first few weeks that he had broken off their friendship to explain his side.‘Duk’ ‘Duk’ ‘Duk’He heard the
