Inside Master’s room, Chris obediently sat cross legged on the mat opposite the one that master habitually sat on; no one else entered. Master too sat cross legged as he swept Chris’s body with his spiritual sense.Outside, Spectra, who had become more familiar with Hendrick whispered, “How big a trouble is Boss in?”“Bucket loads.” Hendrick smirked before turning to Spector “Shouldn’t you be reporting back? See how much trouble you caused my junior brother?”“I…. I …” Spector misunderstood the meaning of Hendrick’s words, taking the literal meaning and blurted while stuttering “I never knew Master would be so fierce.”Although Spector and Spectra were originally master’s disciples, they had just entered the inner sect when Master decided to leave, to enter the next plane with all the inner sect disciples and had not interacted much with master and was unaware of his temperament. They only saw the amiable, calm and composed sect master façade that was displayed in front of everyone.“
He pulled Spectra and Spector into his protection and flew a few meters away before stopping and watching the scene that was unfolding before his eyes. He shook his head in disbelief as he muttered “They are crazy.”The wise ones heeded Hendrick’s advice and took cover; the silly, more curious ones were all pushed back and vomited a mouthful of blood as thunder and lightening struck one after the other. They used all their remaining strength to crawl to a safe space before the next round.Thunder and lightening fired down at the hut almost splitting it into two halves and yet didn’t have any intention of slowing down. It struck down in righteous vengeance and with due reason. Someone had cheated the heavens to level up; it didn’t matter if they had paid the price previously and not levelled up. This was not a tavern to keep tabs!Hendrick used his spiritual sense to look into the room as amidst the smoke and dust from the hut splitting into two, no one could see a thing. He heaved a si
Chris didn’t waste time arguing with his master; he knew that he wouldn't be able to change his master's mind once he decided on something. He decided to finish his tasks quickly and come back to spend some time with his master. He returned back to his villa in no time. By the time Chris returned, not only was all the arrangements for the dinner completed, but also all his brothers and sisters were in attendance.“Where did you go off to?” Eric was the first to see Chris who was walking down from the stairs leading down into the house from the rooftop.“A short errand.” Chris shrugged as he reached the group “Let’s eat first, the kids must be hungry. I am sorry to keep you all waiting.”“What nonsense?” Mark chided while Darcy wasn’t polite, he slapped the back of Chris’s head gently “What a load of nonsense…”Dinner was noisy as always; the chatter of adults and the laughter of kids filled the house. Emile smiled peacefully as she looked around her before looking at the man beside her
Mark did as Chris asked him; he got John to prepare a transfer of share agreement with 2.5% shares transferred back to Adam once he signed the transfer agreement that Adam had left him.The others quietly packed their bags, left their house dressed as shadow guards and returned to Chris’s villa while the shadow guards replaced them. The kids had slept off at Chris’s place after dinner, making it much easier for the adults to slip off as guards.“Boss, everything is set.” Night Wing reported as Chris was sitting with his siblings chatting casually.“Get the others to have some rest. We will set off at 03:00 hours.”Night Wing nodded and left the room to relay boss’s orders.“Why not just set off?” Eric asked sloppily “Aren’t we all here?”“Why go through the trouble of getting your doubles ready if we were going to set off in broad daylight?” Chris rolled his eyes; he didn’t want to admit that this was his brother.“But won’t the whoever who is so interested in our lives know even if we
The next morning, Michael walked into the dining room humming a song. He was finally free from the shackles of marriage to that self-righteous witch. He really didn’t think that his usually submissive wife would actually promptly call him from the registry of marriage and divorce to file a petition for mutual divorce. The whole application process took less than the time it took to make a cup of tea.Michael didn’t have any objections as neither his wife nor his son wanted a division of property nor any other assets from him. They both went through the application process amiably and was told by the solicitor that it would take about 4 months for finalization considering how straightforward the process was and the fact that there were no disputes requiring resolution.“Why are you so happy today?” Grandma Walter asked with an affectionate smile, looking at the blissful expression on her son’s face.Both Silas and Grandpa Walter, who were already seated at the table having breakfast lif
Grandpa Walter, Michael and Silas were dressed in power suits commanding the respect and attention of everyone they meet. They walked into the meeting room in unison as a show of power, in an attempt to intimidate everyone. However, to their utter disappointment, there was no one in the meeting room.They looked at each other in confusion before Silas turned towards his assistant “Where’s everyone?”“They are on their way.”Silas frowned in annoyance as he sat on the left side of his grandfather who took the central seat; Michael didn’t have much of an existence even though he was sitting on the right side of his father.“Keep an eye on the person who bought the shares from the military.” Grandpa Walter instructed his son (grandson) in a low voice as he kept his eye on the door. “See if you can take down those shares.”“Will we have enough funds once we take down the rest of the shares?” Silas asked in concern; right now, his major concern was taking down the lion’s share of the shares
“Hold your horses”Everyone’s gazes automatically went to the door although the emotions in them were mixed.Grandpa Walter’s eyes widened in shock and raised his head as he heard the sound that was buried deep in his memory. Although the sound had been tempered by the years that passed by, he would never forget this voice… the voice that vowed to bare the ugly heart that he hid behind the façade of a loving husband and son-in-law, in front of everyone… the voice that was filled with vengeance, the voice that vowed to see not just his destruction but to also uproot his entire generation before closing his eyes….He had thought that this voice had disappeared into the pages of history.Grandpa Walter fell back in shock as he saw the face that haunted his nights for more than half a century; he hurriedly wiped the large beads of sweat that appeared on his forehead as he tried to calm his tumultous heart. He tried to regain his composure by trying to take a sip of water, however, other tha
“Wife, you… where have you been? Have you been well?” Rufus finally found his voice and asked with a loving expression ignoring the bickering in the background.“Wife?” Michael turned to look at his father in shock. Previously he had heard his father muttering, but he just assumed that it was a senseless mistake.“Who is your wife?” Bridgette spoke sharply as she looked pointedly at Rufus “Didn’t she die about 45 odd years ago?”Neither Adam nor his kids nor the Burkes made a sound; they all had the attitude of watching a show.“Wife… you were terribly sick. I tried to get you the best medical help there was at that time…. before your brother abducted you…….. I searched everywhere for you...... I had no choice…… Adam needed a mother, the public needed an answer…..” Rufus explained with a helpless expression that was filled with grief as he immersed himself into his make-believe persona.“What a shame!” Eric exclaimed, sighing regretfully “Such textbook acting and yet there is no camera
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
Chris arrived by Emile’s side as soon as he received his son’s message, giving her a pleasant surprise. 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
Chris noticed that little treasure was eager to go back and didn’t force her to stay. He knew his little treasure’s intention was not what she said out loud, but he still indulged her; indulging his treasures had become a habit.Night blade and his team was tasked with escorting Little treasure back while Night Rider and his team stayed back with Chris; there was no need to ask about Night Wing to know what he did.“I don’t want Uncle Night Blade to follow me.” Little treasure pouted, throwing another temper tantrum before setting off, shocking Chris and Night Blade. Night Blade felt hurt even though his face was expressionless; his love and affection for the two treasures was no less than that of Night Wing.“Why is that?” Chris asked in a gentle tone, without showing any impatience even though he was shocked.“Uncle Night Blade won’t listen to me.” Little treasure pouted with feigned grievance although her lips her curling up victoriously in a corner not visible to anyone.Chris sig
As the first rays of the sun kissed the land, no matter how reluctant he felt, Chris kissed goodbye to his dear wife. During the night, they had reached a consensus to see what their treasures were up to and not tear open the farce till they got the green flag from their treasures.Chris dragged his feet back to the manor, wondering if he should punish his son for dragging his feet and delaying their reunion. No matter how he thought about it, he couldn’t understand why his son wouldn’t just call him and tell him that his mommy was back to normal and ask him to pick them up. He didn’t suspect his son’s intentions, just felt miserable that he still had to be separated from his family although the problems had been solved.However, all his thoughts were thrown to the back of mind as he saw his little treasure sitting in the lounge with her princess temper; her eyelashes stained with dewdrops that were threatening to fall, causing Marcus to run round in circles to please her.“What’s goi
