Never to look back My charm wasn’t as great as the cheque my grandpa wrote.
Chris however didn’t notice the playful disdain on Night Wing’s face. He was in a world of his own; his memories wound back to the time that he and Emile had gotten reacquainted, as he played with the windcatcher in front of him.Although it was many moons ago, he still remembered it like yesterday; he didn’t have many hopes when he chased after the girl, the girl he liked for more than ten years, hearing the news of her divorce and her impromptu departure from their hometown. What worried him was the fact that his men informed him that there was no return ticket booked under the same name.His lips curled up as he sank into the memories of his embarrassment after being caught by Emile and Abbey; how they travelled together as companions at first and how he slowly walked into her heart. Every single moment was carved into heart, intertwining with his soul, emerging to be one with his being.He let out a soft chuckle as he remembered their time on the beaches of Mauritius; she was exact

Daniel’s lips curled up coming down the stairs, as he saw the little woman in the kitchen, humming to herself as she busied herself in the kitchen. He knew what he was seeing now was just an illusion in his heart, but he was still happy. He firmly believed that as long as he held onto the illusion long enough, it would become their reality, knowing the love she had for him.“Have you finished your work?” Emile smiled as she raised her head to look at Daniel who entered the kitchen.“Um”“Go, take a seat in the lounge. Lunch will be ready soon.” Emile turned her head to look at the maid who was sneakily standing by the side once she finished instructing Daniel. She frowned inwardly as she looked at the maid for a second longer before turning gaze away without leaving a trace.What made her frown was, because out of the corner of her eye, she saw the seemingly innocent maid putting some sort of powder into the soup pot as she was distracted by Daniel’s presence. Her lips curled up in a d

Carl drove straight from Daniel’s house to the hotel close to the safe holding building that Lenin had asked him to deliver the payment card that he received from Daniel. He guessed that Lenin was probably waiting for this money to start over as well, but he didn’t care. What he wanted was his life back.This time, he wouldn’t be foolish enough to deliver it straightforwardly. He would handover with his right hand and take what he wanted with his left; from this point on, they wouldn’t owe each other anything.As he drove, he toyed in his head over the matter of the additional card that Daniel had given him. Although he didn’t know the exact number of how much was inside there, he knew that it was a considerable amount. He decided not to keep the card and hand it over to Lenin after thinking back and forth; he didn’t want this blood money for his new beginning. He wanted to start anew, without a trace of the past.He drove without taking any major breaks for 18 hours straight to reach

The man from the shadows searched frantically for Carl; he turned the whole hotel upside and even questioned his men who were stationed outside and yet there was no clue. He hacked into the surveillance network of the hotel and the surrounding traffic surveillance, only to be return empty handed. It seemed like Dr Burkhart had vanished into thin air.Night Blade watched the man’s actions from the shadows with a disdainful smirk ‘Did he think he was smart enough to catch the tail of the Night Lord’s men?’ He watched the man spinning on the spot like a clueless monkey, taking pleasure in misery till there was nothing left to watch before heading back to report to his Lord. He left behind one of his best men to monitor Lenin before leaving.Lenin blasted the man off the face of earth when he heard that they had not only lost Carl but also didn’t have a clue as to where he disappeared to.Lenin picked up the internal communicator and roared “Don’t bother me even if the building collapses.”

Chris carried his treasures to the dining table for lunch with a bounce in his step; he was finally going to be reunited with his wife, their family was going to be reunited. Even though it had only been a few days, Chris felt like eternity had passed since he had been separated from Emile; every second that they were separated was like a century, moving at a speed slower than that of a snail, torturing his soul and sanity.Night Wing and the rest of the shadow guards watched their lord who had regained his vitality with happiness in their eyes. Adding on the chirpiness of the two treasures, the tense and gloomy aura from the previous days changed into a festive one, bringing a smile to faces of everyone in the mansion, lord and servant alike.“Daddy, did you find mommy?” Emm asked as she ate the food that Chris had loving picked out for her.“Silly, why would daddy say that we are going to bring mommy home if he didn’t find her?” Chris Jnr chided his little sister like a little adult.

Emile raised her head as she heard a familiar voice ahead of her even though she didn’t quite hear what was said. She smiled sweetly as she saw an old friend from her university days and greeted warmly, “Hello Christopher.”“Fancy seeing you here…” Emile smiled as she spoke excitedly; she hadn’t seen him in more than 10 years. “What are you doing these days?”Christopher’s steps paused; his entire being, including his expression froze before he mustered the courage to speak. He didn’t register what she said afterwards. His thoughts were stuck at the address 'Christopher'. She hadn’t called him Christopher in the last seven years.Night Wing was also shocked but not because of the way she addressed Chris but because of what she asked next. He couldn’t make heads or tails of the conversation.Chris Jnr and Emm who were a few feet away, hiding in the shadows with Night Rider and Night Blade too frowned as they heard the conversation. Having been trained by their father since the age of th

Emile stood watching Chris’s disappearing back; she couldn’t explain why but the lonely back that was etched in despair made her heart ache uncontrollably. She didn’t know how but she knew that the reason he walked away without hesitation was to not make things difficult for her….how she knew… she couldn’t tell… Subconsciously, she raised her hand and pressed it against her chest as she felt the uncontrollable pain.“What’s wrong?” No one knew when Daniel arrived behind her. He knitted his brows as he followed her line of gaze; although there was an endless sea of people, there was no one, not even a trace of anyone he should be concerned about.“Don’t know why….” Emile spoke strenuously as she clutched her chests “I don’t feel well.”“Should we head to the hospital?” Daniel asked anxiously; he changed his question as he noted her shaking her head “Or should I call the doctor to meet us home?” “No need. I just want to go back and lie down.” Emile rejected flatly. She didn’t want to se

“Daddy, let’s head back home.” Chris Jnr spoke after much deliberation as they were resting in the lounge after dinner, looking at his daddy who was sitting listlessly staring into space, as though he had lost his soul.“Grandpa and maternal great grandpa will be worried.” He tried to come up with a reasonable explanation.“Um” Chris nodded as he slowly came out of his thoughts. He couldn’t sit wallowing in sadness. He had his treasures to look after; What would happen to them if he lost himself like this? What sort of example was he, setting for them?“Boss???” Night Wing was the only one who dared to make a sound; he knew his boss didn’t want to leave.“Pack up. We will leave in the morning.” Chris stood up carrying his treasures in either arm; he walked towards the bedroom once he spat out the order.The next morning, before the world around them was fully awake, Chris and his men left the peaceful south coast, heading towards home, the ancestral home of the Walters. Chris had his

“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
