“Your man?” A cold voice sounded.

Amanda didn’t have to turn to see who the owner of the voice was. She shivered inwardly but didn’t cower. She bit her lips and looked pitifully at Christopher.

Christopher hugged Emile comfortingly and spoke in a gentle voice “Baby, are you okay?” He looked at her in concern noting that she didn’t register his presence.

Emile didn’t register Christopher’s words nor his presence; Amanda’s words echoed in her heard, everything else was a blur. She couldn’t stop herself from wallowing in self-doubt. She wondered if she made the same mistake again.

As her thoughts were starting to spiral out of control, she heard Christopher’s gentle voice and felt his warm embrace….but that wasn’t right… he was in the study dealing with pending work commitments. She raised her eyes that were filled with confusion to stare into a passionate gaze “Huh?”

“Baby, I am here.” He comforted gently massaging her back till he saw colour returning to her face.

  • Never to look back   Her love has always been a poisonous obsession.

    Christopher raised his eyebrows in an enquiring manner as he saw the frown on Emile’s face as they sat down.“Nothing.” Emile shrugged “I just felt sorry for Amanda. I felt like I was looking at my past self.”“You are nothing like her.” Christopher retorted before adding with feigned anger “Do not insult my fiancée by comparing her with that person.”“Puchi….” Emile giggled.“Seriously though…although I felt sad for her when you blasted her because this was exactly the same for me in the past; I have to admit, it felt really good.” She raised her head to look at Christopher with a curious gaze “Am I wicked?”“First, the two of you are not same.” Christopher reiterated “You were the victim of Michelle’s carefully laid out machinations. However, that stupid female is like a bad smell that refuses to go away.”“Secondly, I don’t think it is wicked.” Christopher held her hand “I love you no matter what you do.” Emile smiled blissfully as she leaned into his embrace.“Will you get into tr

  • Never to look back   Son, it's too late.

    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

    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   What will we do if he does something to mommy?

    “You two….” Marcus looked from one treasure to the other in disbelief, holding a wedding was a huge thing, he wanted to dissuade them, but he knew that twin look; A hundred wild horses wouldn’t be able to hold them back…. What could this poor eldest brother do other than support them?“Tell me what to do...” Marcus slouched down, sighing with a resigned expression; since he couldn’t talk them out of it, he might as well support them all the way and face the music later. Little uncle might be disappointed with him for not being sensible and mature enough to guide the duo in the right direction but at least he could be a good eldest brother.“I have given the task of selecting the wedding planner from the three wedding planners I have shortlisted to Uncle Night Vigil.” Chris Jnr fiddled with his fingers as he lowered his head and raised his eyes to look guiltily at eldest brother and little treasure. He didn’t ask for their opinion before he decided to act and didn’t know if they would

    Chris Jnr locked his door soon after Emile ran out of his room with the phone and climbed back onto his bed and dialed little treasure. He knew he would have to wait for a while since they hadn’t made an appointment but contrary to his expectation little treasure picked up the call even before it could ring.“Big brother….”Chris Jnr pursed his lips into a pout; Little treasure rarely called him big brother…. Not unless she had encountered some sort of grievance….“Big brother is here…” Chris Jnr softened his voice, like he had seen his daddy do when he was comforting them “What’s wrong with little treasure? Is eldest brother not there?” He knew that with eldest brother near her, there was no way she would suffer any grievance.“Little treasure is fine…” Emm pouted as she tried to hold on to her grievance. She was fine, just that she missed her brother too much… they had never been separated and that too for this long.“He’s here.” Marcus responded at the same time as Emm.“What’s wro

  • Never to look back   His grievance is no longer righteous.

    “I…. what???” Emile’s voice rose a notch as she lifted her head to look at Chris in shock. She shook her head in denial as she lowered her eyes taking stock of every conversation with Daniel; she muttered in disbelief even before her brain finished processing her thoughts “In my memory, our re-acquaintance did not exist, let alone marriage…. Then how can I ask for a divorce?”“I believe you…. you might not have asked.” Chris coaxed patiently as he gently massaged her back to calm her emotions.“Hubby, I am truly sorry….” Emile buried her face coquettishly in his chest, as she muttered “I cannot even imagine the pain it caused you…. I am so sorry…”“It is not your fault. I am to be blamed if you have to blame someone…. It is my fault I believed that lunatic.” Chris pacified gently, without feeling tired or agitated even though he was repeatedly saying the same thing.“The only reason I believed him was because my brain was not functioning properly; I couldn’t see through his stupid sch

  • Never to look back   My son is very capable. Don’t underestimate his abilities.

    “Yes…. I don’t think either of us will have a choice when those two scheme together.” Chris’s lips curled up; his eyes narrowed with curiosity.Although he was eager to know what his treasures had in store for them, he didn’t look into it as he didn’t want to deprive them of the joy, the joy they got from seeing their expressions towards the element of surprise that his treasures had planned. This reunion was fully to their credit although he didn’t know how they managed; this indulgence was what they deserved.“You mean ….” Emile raised her head curiously to look up at Chris “You mean, the two are plotting?”“How else could you explain me missing my tail?” Chris chuckled “and giving me the luxury to come and find you on my own?”Emile giggled as she leaned comfortably into Chris’s embrace.“Wife, what happened?” Chris asked once they settled comfortably in each other’s embrace.“I am not sure…” Emile paused as she bit her lower lip hesitating before raising her head to look into Chri

  • Never to look back   Hubby…. your son bullied me….

    “Hubby, you…. aren’t you getting married to someone else?” Emile asked cautiously in a low voice; no matter how cautious she was, she couldn’t hide the hope in her heart…which transmitted as an excited relief through her voice.“Wife, I have told you before…I, Christopher Walter will only marry once and my wife can only be Emile Burke…” Chris assured patiently, his voice carrying a promise…. an oath of a lifetime…“Hubby….” Emile called out in a soft voice, her lips curling up in a sweet smile, brightening her entire aura; all her grievance melted with his promise…she knew her husband never spoke for verbality.“Um” Chris hummed in a low coaxing voice; his aura too brightened, dissipating the cold, gloomy aura around him…. a simple address from her, calmed his restless soul like magic.At this moment, silence entwined with each other’s calm breathing, seemed to be healing the undue grievance suffered by the two souls who loved each other deeply.“Hubby….” Emile called again, her voice

    Chris Jnr was setting up his gadgets to contact little treasure when Night Sonic announced that he had taken care of everything. Chris Jnr nodded in acknowledgement as he continued to fidget with his gadgets.‘Duk…duk…duk…’ A soft knock was heard a few minutes later at Chris Jnr’s door.Chris Jnr’s lips curled up in a knowing smirk as he carelessly placed a sheet over his bed, covering his gadgets, and walked over to open the door.“Aren’t you tired? Shouldn’t you be sleeping?” Chris Jnr quirked his eyebrows wanting to taunt, however his lips curled down guiltily as he saw his mommy’s red eyes.“Do you have a way to contact your daddy?” Emile quickly entered and closed the door as she didn’t want to cause unnecessary trouble; she didn’t know if Daniel was still awake or if their voice would attract unnecessary attention.Chris Jnr pursed his lips stubbornly toying with the idea of whether he wanted to pay back his daddy’s grievance or succumb to mommy’s sorry state. However, he gave

    “I was thinking out loud about the credibility of the news….” Daniel pursed his lips as he came up with what he thought was a plausible explanation “Considering we were college mates, and our families have collaborated on several projects and yet we were not invited.”“Che!!!” Chris Jnr sneered as he looked at Daniel with disdain “Do you think the legal team of the Walter enterprise is a joke?”“Libel is a serious offense.” Chris Jnr continued with his lips curled lopsidedly in disdain “I don’t think this outlet has money to burn nor the guts to gamble by slandering my….” “Why does a little kid like you have so much to say?” Daniel interrupted Christian, preventing him from completing his sentence and digging a hole for him. He truly regretted his decision to bring this brat back.Chris Jnr shrugged nonchalantly, no longer inclined to complete what he said.“You are right. Why were we not invited?” Emile didn’t want the topic to die down. She wanted to see if she could pick some cue

  • Never to look back   Is your father getting married?

    The day went by without any surprises till everyone sat to watch television after dinner at 6:45, this was the norm in the manor. Although this was the norm, today was different; different because the mental state of the three people seated in the room was not the same as every other day.On the surface it looked like a family of three enjoying a little downtime, however the waves surging underneath the calm exterior were far from calm, perhaps even using the word turbulent to describe the situation would be an understatement.Daniel narrowed his eyes as he thought about what despicable measures, he could use to force Chris to agree to divorce and speed up the process. He had already made arrangements to get a marriage certificate that was legal and valid as soon as the divorce was finalized even without Emile’s consent.However, Chris was proving to be a tough nut to crack. He couldn’t believe Chris didn’t have any intention of leaving Emile even though it appeared that she had betra

On screen was a video of Chris entering the shopping mall with a female while the anchor in the background was excitedly raving about the upcoming nuptials that the whole country was looking forward to.Emile’s heart stopped beating for a minute as she turned her head to look at Chris Jnr with a shell-shocked expression “Is he getting married?”“Why wouldn’t he?” Chris Jnr smirked but before he could pacify his mommy as he saw the color on her face draining, he heard the door to Daniel’s study opening; he turned his head back to the idiot box and watched with an indifferent expression.Emile wanted to ask further but she was thrown back by Chris Jnr’s sudden change in aura. However, even before she could voice her confusion, she heard Daniel’s footsteps nearing the top of the staircase. She now understood what happened to her son and quickly tidied up her expression as well.
