âTell godmother who bullied you?â Abbey sat hugging Little treasure on the sofa in the lounge setting in her office âGodmother will avenge you.ââWho can bully little treasure?â Emm blinked as she smiled sweetly hugging Abbey âLittle treasure is so sweet; how can anyone bear to bully me?âAmy 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 was safe; other than being a workaholic, her boss didnât have any flaws and she liked working with her; 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 treasureâs 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.âYesâŠ. yesâŠ. my little treasure is so adorable, who could bear to?â Abbey agreed happily as she
âWhat are you little ghosts planning this time?â 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, âWe are going to give daddy and mommy the wedding of the century.ââYou what???â Abbeyâs 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 âWedding ⊠a wedding⊠my Little treasure âŠ. wants to do the wedding of a centuryâŠ.ââMy dear little treasure even a simple wedding preparation takes time...â Abbey tried to calm her little treasure âIt takes months and lots of preparation to prepare
Meanwhile, at the manor on the south coast-âLittle masterâ Night Sonic walked out of his post in the shadows and knelt beside Chris Jnr who was busy on his laptop.âUmâ Chris Jnr hummed without raising his head; he was busy finalizing his design of the wedding venue arrangements.âMr Holston is back.ââWhat does that madmanâs return have to do with me?â Chris Jnr snorted even though his fingers didnât stop dancing on the keyboard.âMaster is upstairs with Madam.â Night Sonic scratched the back of his head with a constipated expression.âSo???â 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 âDo you think my daddy canât handle that lunatic?ââHandle âŠyesâŠ.â Night Sonic chuckled after realizing his mistake, "but thatâs exactly what I am concerned about."Chris Jnr too chuckled as he imagined his daddy punching the living daylights out of the madman; he didnât bother to take any action; he con
Marcus had the easiest job although his 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.âDad, where are you going?â 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.âI am going to attend my youngest brotherâs wedding.â Darcy chuckled before offering âYou can come with us, if you donât want to miss your little uncleâs wedding.ââHow did you know?â Marcus puckered his lips as he glared resentfully at his heartless father who stole his thunder.âChee!â Darcy sneered as he rolled his eyes in disdain without even bothering to glorify the resentment with an answer.âSon, where are you going?â Mark asked with a helpless expression as he saw Marcus walking in the direction of Darcyâs vil
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 didnât 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.âWhat mischief are you up to this time?â Emile pinched Chris Jnrâs ears gently as she questioned, once she noted that Daniel had walked away, away from their range of activity.âNoâŠ. nothingâŠâ Chris Jnr stuttered with a pink face as he tried to free himself from the empressâs claws.âHymphâ Emile hmphed unhappily as she turned away; Out the corner of her eyes, she saw Daniel was coming back.âWhat did you do to upset your mommy?â Daniel questioned him as soon as he came in front of them. He had seen Emile pinching Chris Jnrâs e
Almost all the guests in the hotel woke up in the wee hours of the morning as they had all arrived to participate in the youngest Walterâs 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 the name, Church in the Sky, Mossel Bay, there were no details of how to get to 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.âWhat are you looking for?â Emile asked in confusion as she saw Daniel looking around.âGrandpa is here too. I was looking to see if he was around.â Daniel shrugged âHe could come in the same car as us.
âYou could never do what he didâŠââWhat did you say?â Daniel asked in shock; he had heard what she said even though it was a whisper; he just didnât want to believe it. He didnât want to believe that Emile had recovered her memory. If she didnât why would she say that?âHow can you arrange so many hot air balloons? Such an extravaganza wedding would need the coffers of the king opened.â Emile giggled as she turned around to face him.Daniel stared at her face for a long time trying to make sense, trying to discern if what she said was purely based on the wedding arrangement or whether there was a hidden meaning in them. But before he could process this line of thought, the ceremonial bells rang leading everyone to take a closer look at the hot-air ballon in the center. Although it was one that could hold 35 people, there were currently only about 25 people including the celebrant and his assistant.âThat is actually a priest not a celebrant.â One of the guests in Danielâs basket, who h
âMommy, you better take care of your man from here onâŠthere's only so much a little girl can doâŠâ Emmâs bell-like voice rang out as she advised seriously forgetting that her mouthpiece was still on âIt was hard work, but we got him here for you.âEveryone burst out laughing as they heard the childish reprimand, leading Emm to wince in embarrassment as she hid behind her elder brother biting her tongue.âUffâŠ.uffâŠâ Chris Jnr cleared his throat like a little adult to attract everyoneâs attention before he continued âAs you have witnessed, our daddyâs journey to his happily ever after has been anything but smooth; whether it was our mommyâs blindness to recognize his unwavering affection and loveâŠ.âThe laughter from the crowd continued while the bride shyly lowered her head, but not without glaring at the flower boy who suddenly became talkative. Emm didnât have any solidarity with the bride as she covered her mouth and giggled.âor whether it was the judgmental eyes of the world around
âThis has nothing to do with my daddy. We are the ones who bought our mommy back.â 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. âGreat grandpaâŠ. didnâtâŠ.â Grandpa Holston couldnât 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 grandsonâs action, but he didnât factor in his great grandchildren. âYou know what you did.â Chris Jnr retorted without giving him any face; his daddy, mommy and little treasure were his bottom line. âI donât think you want me to glorify it by spelling it out for you.â âBig treasureâŠ.â Chris called out, a restraining command in his tone. âHymph!â Chris Jnr hmphed as he turned
âThe old master Holston is here.â The butler announced breaking Chris and Henryâs stalemate, âCan daddyâs big treasure go and play with the others?â 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 ancestorsâŠ. He was bound to be at loss, every single time. âIs little treasure late?â Emm asked Chris Jnr worriedly, without sparing a glance at her daddy and unreliable mommy. âI 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.âWhat do you want?â Both Harry and Addison asked in excitement.âI am very rich for the time being, so I will let Leo choose.â Little baby responded with a smug look and passed the honours to Leo.âTake us all on the trip to the Alps when fifth Uncle Walter is taking them.â Leo didnât 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
âWhere are you going?â Henry teased as he caught the little overlord and hurled him in the air.âPut me down.â Bruno frowned, flailing his legs anxiously âI havenât finished discussing with little uncle.âEveryone laughed as Henry put Bruno down, who promptly ran to Chris, looked up at him curiously, awaiting his decision.âHurâŠhurâŠhurâŠ.â Chris chuckled âHow would I dare renegade on a promise to our little overlord?ââThen when can we go?â Bruno asked seriously, taking no offense to the title, to him, this was recognition of his ability.âWhen we get back and whenever you say the word.â Chris never had any qualms indulging his nephews and nieces.âWhere are we going?â Leo asked curiously.Bruno looked towards Chris who shrugged âItâs up to to the owner of the reward to decide, I am just the charioteer.ââThen letâs go to the ocean kingâs castle.â Bruno didnât have to think twice to make a decision.Chris ââEveryone burst out laughing, only the little ones looked curiously at Chris.âI
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 treasureâs words over and over again. He rushed to Chrisâs 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, âWould you stop talking to me if you find out that I landed you in trouble to test you?ââWhy do you want to test me?â Leo demanded with a frown.âBecause it is very important to me.â Bruno blinked his eyes, lowering his gaze as he whispered, âLike life and death situation that grown-ups talk about.ââWell, 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, Adamâs three friends, the two masters, Chrisâs 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, Abbeyâs 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 âknight in shining armourâ appeared. On their return trip, even though they were all chatting, what attracted everyoneâs attention was little treasureâs soft cute voice âDaddy, 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. âSon, tell me is Emile really pregnant?â Elizabeth couldnât hold herself back anymore. She asked once everyone had settled in the lounge area to relax after breakfast. âUmâ 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. âTell us how you know what was wrong with Little aunt.â Miles piped in from the background, turning everyoneâs attention towards big treasure and little treasure, after being signalled by Marcus. He didnât know why eldest brother wanted him to divert the topic, but he still obeyed. He didnât always have to know the reason; eldest brother was in charge; he would follow whatever eldest brother asked him to do. âDaddy 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 treasureâs wails. He would compensate his little brother in other ways. âHow is your mommy?â Chris asked once little treasure had been coaxed. âShe is fine.â 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 âDaddy, I touched a dragon.â âA what?â Little treasureâs eyes widened, surprise mixed with disbelief, reflecting in those adorable eyes. âUmâ Chris Jnr nodded with all seriousness in affirmation to little treasure but not before he gestured little treasure to be quiet. âDaddy, are dragons real?â Little treasure leaned even closer as she whispered. âMaybeâŠâ Chris shrugged before closing his eyes and mind linking with the two treasures âDa
âJnr might be a good option.â Chrisâs master slowly opened his mouth once he finished sifting everyoneâs faces through his mind.Hua Yueren lifted his eyebrows questioningly.âHe has been around her while she was away. Naturally, the apparition although only a figment of Azureâs 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.âHua Yueren nodded; he didnât have any better solution. They would re-think their plans if this one backfired.Chrisâs 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.âSon, can you see the apparition surrounding your mother?â Chrisâs master knelt beside Chris Jnr so that he could level his gaze with h
