"Well, your childhood was very......! Just as he was about to say something about my childhood, his phone rings, causing the conversation to be interrupted since he has to check the phone and answer whoever was calling him at the moment.
"I'm sorry, please forgive me for the interruption". He apologized to me as he took the call and of course I have no right to decline him from making the call at that moment because I actually want him to tell me more about my childhood, but I guess he might do that after making the call, or he will never do it.
"I'm sorry that our conversation needs to be over, I had an urgent call that I need to take, please take my phone and input your phone number". He uttered as he handed me his phone while I put my phone number in it. I gave him the phone back and thanked him.
"Don't worry, I will contact you very soon". He had said before departing to wherever he was going.
Not quite long, I went back to the house, thinking about the man that I just met.
When I got to home, Katherine was the only human around at that particular moment and I just couldn't believe it when she started approaching me with her evil smirk again.
"Please where's Raven and Alexander?" I ask, although I can see that they weren't around. "They went out Stefan, and guess what?", It's just me and you in this house now, so I'm free to treat you anyhow I want to, and you can't say "no" to it.
She threatened me. Just as how she has always been doing, and I guess I have to listen to her fucking instructions. I just hate her and wonder why I have to be Alone with this devilish human being.
"I want you to go cook for everyone in the house and after that, make sure you do some cleaning as well". She Instructed me as I fist my hand in Angers. I just can't stand her, Maltreating me every time all because of the facts that she hates Me.
I guess marrying into the Black family was my greatest mistake ever in my life. Furthermore, I have never once cooked in my life and this middle-aged ugly woman here is just Ordering me to go cook for everybody in the house. How I'm I supposed to do that when I don't even know how to cook or do anything.
I think it's high time I stopped being afraid of her and open up to her as the man I was. I turned to look at her and clear my throat, pulling her attention. "But Katherine, you know I don't know how to cook, how I'm supposed to do that".
I stated, as she burst into laughter. "If you don't go inside that kitchen and prepare something for us, then I promise to kick you out before Raven and my husband will come ". She threatened me once again as I took a deep breath.
I guess I have no options but to do what I have been commanded to do.
*****
I went to the kitchen to do the dishes, but the kitchen almost caught fire. Now this was the result of what she wanted me to do.
The smoke must have distracted and pulled their attention that even Alexander Black approached me in the kitchen. I guess he's just coming back from where he had gone too.
Judging by his look, he looked so disappointed at me and I didn't realize when he actually laid his hands on me. Gosh, it was very painful. This was actually the first time Alexander Black has ever Made an attempt to slap me. I guess he's very angry at me.
"I'm sorry" I uttered, unable to look him in the eyes as I went to the living room and right there I saw his evil wife. (Katherine) smirking at me as usual
"I never thought you were this useless, there's actually nothing you can do in this Life since you're weaker than a moron".
Her words hurt me a lot as I stormed out of the house in anger. I can't take it anymore. Why's she bent on bullying me in this house and making me look like the bad one.
Just as I was wandering around, my phone rang, bringing me back to reality as I remove the phone from my pocket and check the caller ID. It was actually a strange number which I didn't know. Who could be calling me? I thought as I picked up the call.
"Is this Stefan Maxwell?" The caller asked like he already knew who I was. "Yes" please who I am speaking with? I asked, trying to know who the person was or how he got my number.
" it's good to hear your voice again. I'm your grandfather Stefan". He uttered as my eyes widened. Grandfather? So he was the person my parents were going to visit that day before they engaged themselves into that accident which terminate Their life
"I don't know who you are nor did I remember you, but why are you calling me now? Why didn't you call me after the death of my parents or are you going to tell me that you weren't aware of it? I ask as he remains silent for a while.
"I'm really sorry child, I'm sorry for everything that had happened in the past, I know you must have lived a miserable life after the deaths of your parents which is the reason why I'm requesting you to come live with me! Honestly, "I didn't know your worth back then which is the reason why I've abandoned you, but I'm sorry, and I'm ready to take you in because you're a member of the Maxwell family.
I felt so Angry for a while and thought about my past Life. "I'm sorry, but I don't think I can come live with you". I was still furious at the fact that he couldn't offer me this chance when I was begging in the street just to eat.
"I understand son, I will give you some time to think about this okay! And I will also give you pocket money so you could buy Anything you want. just think about it and call me when you're interested". The call came to an end as I took a deep breath. Wait, talking about pocket money, is he trying to bribe me?

Chapter 4 I do wonder why he was calling me now all of a sudden or does he really think that he can bribe and convince me to go stay with him. I do wonder why some people think that they can actually get everything under their control with their money. But sadly, no one can use money to bribe me. Now I suddenly get everything. Derek could have been related to my family as well which was the reason why he was able to give my grandfather some information about me. Just as I was still in a deep thought, unable to move from where I was still standing, I received an alert of ten billion dollars. My eyes widened as I stared into my phone for some time just looking at the money, and it was indeed (10 Billion dollars) . I'm sure I wasn't hallucinating right now.

Chapter 5 I went back to my room and everything felt different. In fact, before my parents died I had been a person who could not hide emotions. But when I fell on hard times, I realized I had to put up with everything to survive. Back then, when I was living with my parents, I could express my emotions freely, and I didn't get scared of people. I always say what's on my mind even though it might hurt the person but everything all changed when Alexander Black adopted me into their family and I changed to a more respectful person. I don't think I would be able to stand Katherine's nerves if I had had enough money back then because I'm going to shut her down immediately.

Chapter 6 "Is that really necessary?" I asked Raven's mother as she gave me a dangerous gaze. Just then, my phone beams with a message. It was from Derek, and he was requesting me to meet him later. What does he want from me this time around? And why did he have to tell my grandfather about me? I thought as my father-in-law snapped his fingers at me, bringing me back to reality and I had to flash my eyes in shock at what he had Said. He walked towards me then gave me a thundering slap across my face as he took my phone from me then slammed it on the ground. I can feel his anger. He thought I was deliberately ignoring him when I was staring at Derek's message and I guess he was irritated at that. But must he have to overdo it by slamming my phone on the ground? Does he really have the Right to do that all because he's my father-in-law? "I really blame my father for having you to marry my daughter Raven. I wonder why he had to hand over my daughter to someone like you Stefan", you'

"Can you tell me the reason why grandpa suddenly approached me but never showed up even after my parents had died? I ask as he took a deep breath, his gaze narrowed to the ground."I do get your point Stefan but.... grandpa had been looking for you ever since he Heard of your parents death but couldn't because he had no clue of where you're staying. "So recently, I heard that you're living with the Black family which was how I was able to hear about you and I was even planning to visit you before when I suddenly saw you that day at the cafeteria.He uttered as I took a deep breath, still waiting for his whole explanation about the whole thing because I'm not just getting his point at all.

They're now in a devastated situation and they're looking for a solution.One of the shareholders received information that the Maxwell family, which is my family, is now targeting the Black's family. How cruel is that?And I guess the Maxwell family company is very powerful in this country. They're the most powerful and popular country in the state and Nobody can compete with them but right now it seems like the Black's family are competing with them.Because the shareholders from the Black family company were very negative when they heard the news and that's because none of the companies that had offended the Maxwell family could survive. And that has been told by people.And Alexander said that they all gave up on the shareholder conference on hearing that the Maxwell family was competing against the Black family. If not for the news which they've Heard, they could have helped t

Chapter 9I was about to go to my room when I saw raven on a call .So I decided to eavesdrop and know who she was speaking with."Derek, please , I need your help!!!" She sounded so passionate and serious in her tone"Is this about the Black family business?" Derek asked over the phone as she sniffed her nostrils and hummed. "yes". She let out her thoughts, thinking that he would be able to help them but I don't think he can.Derek isn't the Maxwell family son nor relative. He was just the assistant of the richest man in the whole world so I don't think he would be able to convince my grandpa into helping them."Ohhhh Raven, please try not to get involved in the two companies' fight". Derek said over the phone."So tell me Derek, how much will it cost to settle everything?""I don't think that's necessary, please just try to stay away from these family business issues. You must not have to put your mouth on it because that isn't necessary especially when you guys are competing against

"I'm sorry grandfather, but he said that he couldn't be of any help but to watch the Maxwell family who's determined to destroy the family business and there's nothing he can do. She uttered as he hit his foot against the ground in anger."Gosh, why's the Maxwell family so bent on destroying us? Have we done anything bad to them so far? He thought, feeling so Angry and frustrated with the situation he was in."I really Made mistake, I made a big mistake letting you marry that useless Man Raven". He uttered as my heart skipped.

If she truly adopted this child then why does he look so much like you?" Morgan questions with a pondering heart. She herself was also confused how this child looks so much like him when she didn't birth him. "Except maybe the mother of this child was my Ex girlfriend who got pregnant for me without me realizing and the hospital ended up selling her child for you Morgan. That's the only thing I believe right now ". A shiver ran down Raven's body as Stefan uttered such words. His words made her remember that day she gave birth but it turns out that she gave birth to a Triplets but the third one died. That was what the doctor told her which just reflected back to her right now. She seems to have forgotten it. "Mommy!!! Daddy!!!

She called out his name on finding him to be Morgan's son. She went to meet the man who was breathing helplessly at the front seat of the car. "Please ma'am help us! Help this boy especially. He must not die ma'am help him". Even though she didn't want to help them in the first place because of his mother's rudeness, she couldn't resist his pleading.

"Mateo, your father told me to follow you to school today! So you can show me those twins that usually bully you". The male bodyguard shrugged at Mateo the moment they got to the school premises. "Sure, Please follow me". Mateo led him to their class and showed him the two twins who were Seated together. The male bodyguard was shocked at the resemblance which the twins had with Stefan. It was now he came to understand the reason why Stefan had requested him to find out about these twins. They could be his own.

Morgan questions with a disappointed look expecting him to explain his actions for her because if he continues doing this to her then she might get angry at him and file a divorce paper one day. "That's right. I'm going to look for her because I realized that I still love her and if you have a problem with that maybe you can file for a divorce. After all, you don't even love me nor do I". Stefan bellowed at her with so much anger at her actions as he walked out of her. Morgan was devastated. She was frustrated. At this moment all she could ever think of was how to leave the marriage.
