Jessica heaved herself up from the ground, she cursed silently at Black’s receding back.Carefully, she dusted her dress off and hurried over to the door with a plan of getting the wedding dress for Daphne.Her eyes gleamed with happiness for a reason known to her.Kai didn’t attempt to push Black’s Wheelchair toward the waiting room because of what Jessica revealed but Black gestures for him to take him there anyway.At the entrance, he stopped when he heard silent conversations between both of them.“Oh no! How do I get this off?” She sobbed“Don’t worry Daphne, I will make sure he doesn’t suspect a thing” Daniel replied and Daphne’s cry followed.Black smirked and asked Kai to turn his wheelchair around.He’s been rather confused about his feelings lately ever since Daphne showed up in his life. Anytime he tries his best to take a step forward, Daphne’s actions always force him to take two steps back.Despite the misunderstanding circulating between her and Daniel lately that he ma
Daphne settled in the car carefully and Cassandra helped her tuck in the tail of her long flowing wedding dress into the car with her. She then stepped away with her face lowered, she only raised her chin when the car left.With her head up, an offensive line appeared between her brows and her hands tightened into fists. Cassandra bit her lower lips, anger evident on her face and her eyes swam with tears.She was quick to wipe her tears on hearing approaching footsteps behind her. She unclenched her fist to bring them to the front in a joined manner to show her politeness and with her head lowered.Daniel and Jessica looked pissed to the core as they made their way out of the hotel to where they parked their car.Daniel glanced at Cassandra with a demeaning look. He only lived in the family house when he was young till high school level and he knew everything about Cassandra but he has never been a fan of her.Well, the feeling is mutual! Cassandra never fancied him either because he
Daphne watched Black leave the house with his backpack.She stepped forward to the railing of the stairs with reality staring right into her eyes— if she’s not careful and strong, this household is ready to drive her crazy.She went searching for the mini purse that Cassandra claimed to have dropped her phone in but then she remembered that she didn’t bring it inside with her, she must have left it in the car.She groaned, she was hoping to call her grandmother or someone ready to listen to her at the moment.Just then she thought of using the Home telephone, and a feeling of consideration crossed her mind. She dropped the telephone with a sad face, now is not the time to get her grandmother worried.“I miss my kids so bad” she sobbed silently as she sat on the floor near the phone table. She’s missing her quadruplets so badly at the moment and if she happens to have superpowers, she’s ready to cast any spells that would take her to them.She was thinking about this when her eyes veer
At exactly 1 in the morning, A female figure could be seen lurking around the Williams Villa.Despite the cold chills of the night that were set to eclipse the little traces of heat in the air, she seemed unbothered as she started pacing up and down throwing sequential glances at the big mansion. After pacing up and down the sideline about 10 times, she brings out her phone to hurriedly type on it.That was when she noticed an approaching car with a full blinding headlight. She flinched and quickly scrambled away from the lighted area.She remained hidden watching the familiar car enter the Villa.It was Black’s Rolls Royce but it was another man driving the car and not his usual bodyguard, Kai.After a few minutes, she turned around to leave.~It was one of Black’s men that came to drop him off and after he has done that, he bowed to him before leaving as well.Black adjusted his backpack as he climbs the porch of his house, he pushed open the door and bolted the door behind him he
The next morning, Black woke up to see Daphne snuggling with him in bed. He remembered when he returned to the bedroom after cleaning up to see that she was already asleep. They are married now and so he slept on the same bed with her and under the same duvet.Last night she was sleeping far from him with a pillow dividing the bed but this morning, she’s fast asleep nestling her head in his arms.How beautiful she looks while sleeping is on a different scale and Black’s ego couldn’t deny that.He could not stop staring at her as memories of their nightstand four years ago came back to him, he loved how she looked then and now.The only difference was that he didn’t have a thing for her because he thought her to be an enemy but now the way he looks at her is different.With a careful movement of his hand, he helped her to pick up a fallen eyelash on her cheek.He was careful enough not to wake her up but Daphne felt his touch, the one that sends tingles down her spine at the mere cont
The moment Daphne reached the first floor with Black, someone rang the doorbell. She walked carefully in her heels toward the door and she unlocked it without asking questions— she thought the maids are probably coming early in today.When she opened the door, Old Lady William showed up with a warm smile, and four of her quarters' maids each holding a big pot containing food and another tray with desserts.She raised a brow in surprise but she was quick to compose herself and say her greetings properly.“A beautiful morning to you my dear” The old lady replied with a bigger smile.“Good morning Grandma” Black said with a slight smile.“Good Morning my prince warrior” She replied with an impish smile and Black looked away from her because he understood what her joyous smile meant.“Oh, go in you all and set the table,” The old lady said turning to her maids.Daphne’s eyes darted to what the maids are holding and that’s when the sweet aroma wafted into her nose. Her stomach grumbled so
After sorting out his business at the first factory, he left immediately with Kai to check on the second place before retiring for the day.At one point, they were stuck in traffic and the line seems to be a long one so he asked Kai to roll down the window for a little bit. That was when they saw Cassandra walking by the sidewalk with a dejected look.“Boss is that not one of the maids at the Villa?” Kai said.“Get her to come over,” He said to Kai who nodded in reply and quickly alighted from the car. He chased after Cassandra to call her back to the car.She walked diligently with both of her hands crossed at the front.“Oh my goodness! Good afternoon young master” she greeted with a blushing smile and her head low.“You are not on duty right now Cassie, you’re a family so act as one” Black said.Cassandra’s face reddened the more and she smiled” Afternoon big brother Black” she said shyly. It was Mr.Marwood’s rules before he died, he warned Cassandra about respecting Black on and o
The drive home was quiet and peaceful for Black unlike for Kai whose face wore an impassioned and spiteful look. Black was busy on his tablet checking the latest news and update about their competitors in the City. He was scrolling up on the screen when the car came to an abrupt stop and his tablet fell from his hand followed by a scream and Kai panting heavily. Black was shaken but not badly affected courtesy of the seat belt.It appears that Kai was not thinking straight while driving and he almost run over a little boy that was getting his ball on the road.Even though it was a red light, he could have noticed the boy earlier than the shocking approach.The boy’s mother came over immediately to get his son but she was apologizing greatly in tears as it was not a green light.Black groaned in frustration and eyed Kai murderously.The woman recognized the unique signature on the car to belong to the Williams and that explains her fear of they happening to sue her.Instead, Black op
~INSIDE~Daphne wanted to lock herself in but Black was fast enough to get hold of her.“Don’t tell me you believed that?” He asked. “What do you want me to believe? I saw and heard it well!” She cried out. “Shhh” Black caressed her hair and wiped her tears away trying to calm her down. “Cassandra is like a sister to me, I didn’t know she was harboring such thoughts in her mind all along I promise I had no idea” he explained. Daphne sobbed and she sat on the bed with her face buried in her palm. “Okay listen” Black decided to explain who Cassandra is and how she ended up in the family and it became clear to Daphne. She then decided to raise the issue with the pictures sent to her.The first thing Black did was to check the number and it tallied with the number Kai has been texting. Left with no choice, he explained everything that happened to him that night to Daphne. He went downstairs to pick up the mask to show her. She felt so bad for him and what he’s been through.“I’m…
Cassandra went inside hoping to talk to Black but she didn’t know where to start.She waited in front of his door contemplating whether she should go inside or not.But then the door came open to reveal Black with his car keys which means he was ready to leave as well.“Cassie? Do you need something?” He asked.Cassandra was caught off guard and she could not find the right word “No sir… congratulations about… everything” she stuttered.“Thanks” Black replied straight up and he left her on the scene.Cassandra bit her lips and clenched her fist.“Night would be better I guess,” she said to herself.~ON THE ROAD~Black received a call from Tyson about the tracking device moving out of the city range. He knew immediately that Arlo was running away.“Get him first, they’ve found out about the tracker and they are trying to hide their boss,” Black said.“Should we still get ready for tonight? He asked.“Yes, Kai will somehow lure their boss out,” he said.He’s planning to act according to
DANIEL’s MANSIONDaniel just arrived home with Jessica who doesn’t seem to be in a good mood. After visiting the family house in the morning, she’s been fuming and edgy. At the office, she could not concentrate on anything but Daniel didn’t react more to it.He still wanted his brother gone but he’s the silent devil no one prays to have a deal with.Starting from the fact that he used Daphne for his good, he’s using Jessica as well to achieve his aim when the only girl he sincerely loves is Cassandra.His mother despise her so much and was against him crushing on her back in the way.As she would always tell him “ She can’t do a thing to benefit your life! Do you want to make a union of an orphan and an illegitimate son born out of an affair? But Daniel never gave up, he was so in love with Cassandra.When he found out she liked Black instead, he went crazy and did lots of horrible things to her.She was the reason Daniel got kicked out with his mother back then.Just after driving i
Black opened the door for Daphne with a sarcastic bow and she chuckled loudly as she plopped into the car.Black waved his hands at his employees and passersby who joined in taking pictures as they move. After that, he entered the car and left the company with Daphne.Black was holding the steering wheel with one hand and the other hand on Daphne’s leg, rubbing the exposed part of her legs. Daphne gave him a quick kiss while driving and he smiled.“Why don’t you call her to prepare her mind?” Black suggested.“Oh right, silly me” Daphne tapped her forehead slightly.Just when they were about to pull up in front of Mrs. Hendrix's home, a message came in from an unknown number on Daphne’s phone. But because she was about to get busy, she swiped it away from the Notification Center hoping to check it later.She dropped her bouquet and stepped out when Black got the door for her.“I have always fantasized about this” Daphne said with a smile.“Oh, you mean having the service of the most g
THE VADOO GANG HIDEOUTArlo finally opened his eyes and he clutch his head in pain.One of the men watching him called for their boss immediately and she rushed over to attend to him with tears in her eyes.“Oh my goodness! I’m so happy you’re alive” she said as she caress his face.“Uh” Arlo groaned as he struggles to sit up.The young lady helped him sit up and he gave him a drug to use.“How did you find me?” He asked.“ I was going to kill everyone to rescue you out of that place but then we saw you being taken out,” she said.Arlo dropped his glass of water and nod his head “ I’m glad you didn’t attack, that bastard came around” he said.“Black?” The lady asked.“That bastard is a player! There’s nothing wrong with his face and he can walk perfectly!” Arlo explained as he punched the bed frame.The young lady was surprised, her eyes widened in shock when Arlo explained to her.“Hold on, I already know he can walk but his face? I see him every day and even with the mask on, I coul
Kai was able to locate Black’s whereabouts and he drove him home.When Kai wanted to stay, he refused and asked him to go to the kid’s school instead to keep watch on them.Black was unusually quiet, he’s the silent cold type but his ambiance looks way too quiet. He keeps thinking about the incident that happened last night.He almost believed that his dead wife came back to life but when he was losing consciousness, he heard conversations and that voice doesn’t sound like Diane, instead, it sounded somehow familiar.Diane’s lovable with her accent but last night, the woman who tricked him didn’t talk with him.He was doubting her features, to begin with, and now it’s clear to him that his enemy was playing tricks on him.The fact that they knew how badly Diane’s shadow would shake him made him so angry, he detest the feeling of being weak.Even though nothing was done to him last night, it hurt his pride and he decided to go crazy.“What insubordination!” He groaned with his eyes tig
Tyson spent all night looking for his boss, he was going crazy and flipping the city around to look for him.The lady he was chasing the other night turned out to be a random girl crying over heartbreak from her boyfriend and that was why she was driving so fast and didn’t stop.He had secretly followed her to her house and saw her parents receive her before he left.He regretted not being wary enough to sense that they were played.He won’t be able to forgive himself if anything happens to his boss.At one point, he decided to go home and look for him but he didn’t want to worry anyone, most especially the old lady.Left with no choice and the sun was already setting in, he went to the Williams Villa to check if he went home alone.On getting there, his heart dropped when he could not find his car and he quickly placed a call to Kai who was on leave according to their boss.When Kai heard what happened, he was so worried and heartbroken and he started looking for him as well.He went
The sexy-looking woman walked out with proud steps and entered her red car. Two black cars followed her immediately on a quest to save Arlo.She was ready to risk all it takes to enter the enemy’s territory and save her only best friend of 10 years.She mounted on the road at full speed, reckless driving and overtaking over cars, she would laugh out loud and make exclamatory remarks.After a few minutes, she arrived at the popular bar that belongs to the Williams but with an underground space that belongs to the Black Blood as their other identity.They pulled up in another street closer to the bar and the woman walked inside while her men stayed out in their car, ready to act on a slight call from their madam.The moment she stepped inside, the air in the room changed and she smiled widely at anyone that meets her glance. Her red dress started turning heads as she carries her curvaceous body to the counter to order a drink for herself.The bartender was at a loss for words when he sa
When Daniel got to the police station with his lawyer, they were told to wait for Jay who rat Jessica out to the police.In the meantime, Daniel went to have a discussion with Jessica who was looking so at ease and happy inside the cell.“I’m sorry I was busy when you called, I’m so sorry baby” Daniel apologized to her.Instead, she chuckled slightly as she stares at her nails lovingly “Oh see how lovely my nails are” she said.Daniel’s brows creased with the side of his face as he was surprised by the nonsense that Jessica was saying.He thought to himself if she has finally gone crazy.“Are you okay?” Daniel asked.“Of course!” She said with a smile.After she was done staring at her nails, her smile slipped when she looked up at Daniel.“If my dad didn’t call you so you wouldn’t do anything to save me, Daniel?!” She said with her eyes glaring at Daniel with so much anger.“No please don’t get me wrong, the lawyer is here with me… you will be out of here soon” Daniel said.“Don’t yo
