“That was super fun.” Vini laughed as he walked into Chris Jnr’s room from the balcony.“And the best part is, we did not get into trouble.” Emm and Penny hi-fi-ed as they giggled walking into the room.“Shhh!” Chris Jnr cautioned “Let’s get into bed quickly. Don’t think that my daddy is easy to fool. Don’t make noise and tempt your luck.”However, luck didn’t seem to be on the side on the young vigilantes. The lights in their room turned on as they were sneaking into their beds. Night Wing stood near the switchboard with a helpless expression.Chris Jnr scratched the back of his head as he looked towards the switchboard. Sure enough, nothing escapes his daddy’s eagle eyes. As expected, his daddy was sitting on the old oak rocking chair waiting for them.“Daddy, you haven’t slept?” Chris Jnr raised his head with a fawning smile “Daddy, little treasure is very tired. Can we talk tomorrow?”“What has daddy taught you?” Chris raised his eyebrows in a questioning arc, his lips curled up in

Daniel arrived earlier than Amanda as he had a meeting with one of his clients just before his appointment with Amanda. He couldn’t be bothered to change rooms, so he informed reception to let Amanda know of the change in rooms and to bring her to where he was.Amanda arrived on time, she was courteous and didn’t lack a single point on etiquette. She gracefully accepted the change in room and walked over to the designated room with the receptionist although she was fuming inwardly. She did have a trick up her sleeve.She had bribed the hotel staff to burn an incense in the room she had previously booked; the intent was to trade flesh and coax Daniel into doing her bidding out of helplessness. Little did she know that it was a good thing that her trick didn’t come to fruition, otherwise her collaboration with Daniel would have burned with the incense. Daniel was stubborn as a mule and was not someone who could be coerced. Manipulated, yes…. but coerced, never. It would backfire in ways

Night Blade brought the kids back after their punishment was over; all of them without exception was dead tired. Marcus had hoped that he would be able to cruise through this one as the kids were coming along. Little did he know that his evil little uncle divided them into two groups, clubbing him, Miles and Vini together and Emm, Chris Jnr and Penny in the other group.Although he fared better than Miles and Vini, it was nothing to be proud of considering he was used to it since he was 10 unlike the others who were experiencing their little uncle’s devilish training for the first time. Unlike Marcus who was complaining non-stop to Darcy and Grace when they came to pick him up, Miles and Vini had a sense of accomplishment while Penny felt that she was a total disgrace as an elder sister.Chris Jnr and Emm were used to the Devil Island training as Chris would take them on training adventures although this was their first-time undergoing punishment training. They just sat quietly observi

“Get me the details of the person my wife is meeting today.”Night Wing nodded in acknowledgement and left the room while Chris got busy with getting the kids ready to head for the Walter board meeting where all shareholders had to attend quarterly meetings; they could either attend in person or proxy.“Dad, what’s on the agenda for today’s meeting?” Chris Jnr asked as they sat in the car driving towards the headquarters of Walter Empire. Although Chris Jnr’s voice was childish, there was no childishness in the tone. He and Emm were used to board meetings; Chris always took them for the meetings of both Evergreen Heights and Devil’s Empire from when they were 3 months old. They had begun their training from when they were 2 unlike other second-generation rich kids.“Exploring new prospects” Chris’s response was also business-like; he never laudatory in his response with his kids. To him, this was how his kids should be, there was nothing noteworthy in this, it was a norm for his kids.

The next session had a wider audience as it included not just the shareholders but also the board of directors. Everyone was seated and ready before the Walters waltzed in. Chris’s lips curled up subtly in disdain as he saw the schadenfreude on most faces. He didn’t forget to gesture Night Wing to make a note of those faces.One of the board members started the discussion once Mark opened the floor. However just as he was speaking, Chris’s phone rang with an overseas number, and he excused himself before leaving the room.“We have been stagnant in our footprint for over a decade.” One of the board members opened his speech as he stood up tugging his pants that was slightly drooping of his bulging tummy. He looked around the room with a wide smile taking in the nodding heads from his lackeys and was about to continue when he was interrupted.“Are you suggesting setting up a new branch?” Mark raised his eyebrows “in the country or …?” Mark paused his question mid-way, the meaning evident

Chris’s Demon emperor reputation was not without reason nor was his vengeful persona an exaggeration. His kids and Emile were his bottom line; to touch his bottom line and escape unscathed, was simple a pipe dream. Chris didn’t wait for Crawley’s response.Pictures of two other children, a girl of ten and a boy of six came up onscreen. These followed pictures of Crawley where he was pictured as the perfect family man playing with his wife and kids, the only problem was the women in the pictures were two different women, neither was the widely known socialite, the current Mrs Crawley.“This…. This….” One of the board members stuttered in anger as he pointed at the pictures before turning to Mr Crawley and demanding in a furious temper “Brother-in-law, don’t you owe me and my sister an explanation?”“Hehe…misunderstanding…. Misunderstanding… all a misunderstanding….” Mr Crawley waved his hands after calming his nerves with a shallow laughter.The paternity test results for the kids appea

“Now to the two of you…….”Chris’s chilling voice made the two who were actively mocking, tremble in fear. They had just seen the fate of Mr Crawley who was more important and prestigious than them being reduced to nothing but dirt. They regretted it…. Regretted opening their mouth to curry favour with Amanda however, there was nothing they could do other than shamelessly apologize.“Youngest master Walter” Both the board members who were singled out by Chris called out in unison “Please forgive our ignorance. Please don’t waste your time on us who are not worthy of your attention. Youngest master Walter, please be magnanimous and spare us. We won’t dare…. We won’t dare anymore.”“Heh! Magnanimous and me?” Chris sneered while his brothers (in-laws) laughed without giving him face.“You have me all wrong.” Chris scoffed “I am very petty. I take revenge for even the smallest grievance and you…. Heh! you have dared to touch my kids…. Tell me how magnanimous, do you want me to be?”“Chris,

The young lady, Beth Forester titled her head towards her confidante who was a step behind her and asked in a whisper “Are they all looking at me weirdly or is it my imagination?”“Might be because eldest lady looks a lot like her mother.” Zada, who was Beth’s confidante and personal maid answered back in a whisper.Whatever news Chris published; it was also simultaneously projected on to the screen in the meeting room. It was no surprise that people in the room were looking at Beth with a gaze that was mixed with sympathy and disparagement; Beth was a splitting image of her mother who was projected on the screen.Beth adjusted her mood and was about to open her mouth when Finlay rushed to her side “My good daughter why are you here?” He didn’t have his usual indifference nor did he have a mocking attitude but rather one of a loving father.“Shouldn’t I come?” Beth asked softly as she distanced herself from Finlay.“Go home. Don’t make a scene here.” Finlay straightened his posture and

“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
