The discharge procedure went hastily and in less than an hour, they were on the way to the residence.

By the time they reached the house, Grandma Cindy was fast asleep. Since she was in a wheelchair, Auntie Florence effortlessly wheeled her to one of the guest rooms as her room had not been organized yet.

The children were very delighted, particularly Tasha when they learned their great-grandmother would be residing with them. Tasha had already begun to organize some recreational activities to exploit the aged woman.

Cassie felt her head banging painfully, but rather than going upstairs to rest, she started to head for the kitchen. Since the housekeeper would not be available, it will be wise to make something for everyone to munch on.

"Cassie! Wait!" Auntie Florence yelled unexpectedly when she saw Cassie steering to the kitchen.

Cassie jumped. She turned around abruptly. Her hands were on her chest.

Everyone in the room blazed

    Nathan was speechless as he stared at the pink girl's skirt. His face and ears had turned red from embarrassment. Even his eyes had turned round and wide as he stared in a daze. Was Tasha crazy? He would rather die by a swarm of poisonous bees than of embarrassment.Eleanor snorted loudly at the look on his face; it was priceless and she felt as though taking a picture of it for future sake."Did G.G ask you to play dress up?" She asked a mischievous grin on her lips. Eleanor turned to look at Cassie; she had a triumphant look on her face and so did Grandma Cindy. She instantly understood that it was entirely Cassie's and Grandma Cindy's plan to frustrate her poor soon.Nathan frowned when he saw how relaxed his mother was at the issue. How could she watch this happen to him!? His reputation was at stake for heaven's sake! He thought sadly.He had just opened his mouth to speak when…"Oh, Nathan, you will look so dashing in the dress. Just give it a try!" Grandma Cindy said teasingly

  • The Billionaire's Instant Family   Ghosts In The House?

    When she woke up, Eleanor was in a better mood than she had been the previous night.She thought; as much as Jerome wanted to meet up with her, it meant he was aiming for something. She did not know why, but deep within herself, she knew he was bad news. All the same, she would meet with him later. For now, she had better things to do.Eleanor made breakfast that morning. The atmosphere around the table was livelier than it had ever been as Grandma Cindy, Auntie Florence and Tasha shared stories and made jokes.Even Jonathan, the 'workaholic' had spent the night in the house. He had even decided to extend his stay till after the weekend.As she watched him and Cassie steal glances at each other, Eleanor prayed silently that the duo would drop their egos and start dating.After breakfast, as they washed the dishes, Eleanor suddenly thought of something."Cassie, how far about finding a suitable school for the kids? You know you haven't given me any feedback." She said in an urgent tone

  • The Billionaire's Instant Family   ZerAnderson Group

    Eleanor sat down quietly in the back seat of the car as Cassie occupied the driver's seat.She was looking through some files as she nibbled on the cover of her pen; a habit that had become a part of her.Days back, she had requested the records of all ZerAndersons' current and past workers. So as Cassie drove, she looked through them.ZerAnderson was her greatest asset. Her mother's legacy and she would do anything it takes to keep it standing tall; even if it meant relieving the current workers and finding new and qualified ones."Cassie?" Eleanor called after some time."Yes, boss?""Please send some gifts to the Anderson family villa. Grandma's birthday is in a few days." She requested.Cassie nodded, making a mental note to do just as requested."Anything specific?" She asked."Nah! Just something Worthy" Eleanor responded and Cassie nodded.Cassie first drove to the school where she was applying for the kids to confirm its authenticity. She also got the hardcopy admission forms

    "Dad, I'm going somewhere. I won't stay long" Damien notified his father as he clicked his cuffs."Okay, son. Do not stay long. Recall, Beverly would be arriving later today." his father replied with a nod.Damien sighed. The sheer mention of the character 'Beverly' incited him with a complex headache."Okay, dad. Take care."Entering his car, he zoomed out of the villa. Barely minutes on the road, his phone chimed.Seeing it was a message from Eddy, he quickly checked it. After which, he tossed the phone on the seat beside him.****In the car, Cassie asked, "Boss, what do we do about the ZerAnderson Group? It seems Jonathan is already Golden Inc well."In the few hours she had spent in the office with Jonathan and Eleanor, she had come to find out that the famous and unknown Chairman of Golden Inc is none other than her boss, Eleanor.It was a twist she didn't see coming. She knew Eleanor was many things. But, Golden Inc's Chairwoman was never part of it."Well, the needful" Eleanor

    Turns out the bastard wasn't far after all."Everything that we ever owned and are contending for belongs to Eleanor, mother! Are you so heartless!?" Penny screamed furiously.Precisely how thoughtless was this mother of hers?The previous night, before consideration of coming to face Alexander, she had snuck into the household study. There, she found many unexpected revelations.The manor, the red Empire, the imperial casino, the Sino bar, and all the other businesses that her parents were battling blades and utterances for belonged to Eleanor.Alexander was unexpectedly violent. He lifted his hand and was about to slap Penny, but Elaine was quick to hold him back."Patience, my love. Patience! You wouldn't want to ruin her twenty million and a collaboration face!" Elaine said and Alexander dropped his hand reluctantly.Penny, on the other hand, was confused. Twenty million and a collaboration face? What on Earth was that supposed to mean?Elaine turned to her daughter with a smile.

    She retrieved her head and opened the door wide enough for her to pass. Penny carried her suitcase on her head while she tiptoed towards Grandma Cindy's section.She couldn't follow the main entrance as someone might see her, so, Grandma Cindy's back entrance was the most favorable option.She didn't want to risk being seen. Only God knew what Alexander would do to her.Penny told soundless but quick steps and soon she was at the entrance. She grabbed a single key from her pant pockets and unlocked the door. The door opened and Penny stepped out and closed it behind her.Once she was on the road, she quickly hailed a cab and gave an address. Entering into the safety of the moving cab, Penny finally removed the hoodie from her head and let out a breath she didn't realize she had been holding.Turning to look at the disappearing mansion behind her, tears rolled down her cheek. She felt bad going away from home but she would never regret it.***"It's high time you get married, Damien,"

    Penny broke into hard sobs and her body was now quivering under the impact of her tears."Mother and father always made me believe you were a bad person and..." She paused to sniffle. "I believed them. I always did what they said because I thought they were right. I've been a fool and I just realized it. I'm so sorry, Eleanor. Please forgive me!"Angered and yet confused, Eleanor's heart tightened in concern for the crying girl. Standing up, she tried pulling Penny by the shoulder."Stand up, Penny. I have no grudges against you at all." she whispered.That was the truth. She had never harboured any ill feelings against the girl. When Alexander had brought in his mistress and her child, she had actually disliked the child. Then it dawned on her that the child was not at fault, she didn't chose to be born to a cheating couple.Eleanor stopped hating on the girl and transferred her aggression to Elaine and Alexander. She had tried everything she could to become a big sister to the gulli

  • The Billionaire's Instant Family   A Gloomy Morning

    The morning sun dropped its glorious beauty like showers of rain. The sky was bright and without a trace of gloominess to be found in it.Penny woke up feeling happy. Her heart, for some reason, felt inexplicably light. It was as if she slept on clouds. The atmosphere around her was simply... perfect.But, it was not so for the McKinleys..."Alexander, she is not in her room!" A frantic Elaine screamed in fear as she ran down the stairs.Her daughter was nowhere to be found.Alexander abruptly stood up from the couch. "What!?" he walked to Elaine, "Are you sure about that?"Elaine nodded tearfully. "I searched her room, closet, and bathroom, but she was not in anyone."A frown found its way to Alexander's face. Earlier, when Elaine made mention of Penny not being in the mansion, he had taken it to be one of her useless pranks. It seemed she was serious after all."Did she mention going anywhere to you at any time?" He asked.Elaine shook her head. "She did not. We had a chat yesterday

    Eleanor's eyes widened at Damien's suggestion. Disbelief flickered across her face. "Remarried? No, that can't be. Mirabella never mentioned anything about remarrying, and we have no reason to think so."Damien leaned back in his chair, crossing his arms in contemplation. "Well, it's unusual for someone to go by different names within the same family. Could there be something we're missing?"Eleanor shook her head. "Sienna is in her twenties, while Eliora would be the same age as myself since she is my twin."Damien agreed. "Does that mean Sienna is a relative of yours, then?" he inquired thoughtfully.Eleanor shrugged. "That's the only logical explanation for the moment," she rasped out. "Besides, judging by the story Mirabella told us, the man must have loved my mother too much to remarry," she added with a sigh."Or, she is adopted," Eddy, who had been quiet, suddenly chimed in, causing the duo to turn to him."What do you mean?" asked Eleanor, confusedly.Eddy crossed his arms ove

    Eddy, still trembling, pulled out the letter and extended it toward Antonio, who took it with a cursory gaze directed at Eddy."Yes, Mr. Huxton," Eddy stammered. "I have a letter for you. It's important, and I was instructed to deliver it personally."Antonio's gaze traveled between the letter and Eddy. Something about Eddy did not sit right with him. Antonio thought that he had met Eddy before but he could not remember where."Who sent you?" He asked, slowly tearing open the letter."Z-zara Anderson-Red, sir," Eddy answered.Antonio's head whipped up to Eddy's face quickly. There was shock clearly etched on it as his eyes widened."The Andersons?" He muttered disbelievingly and Eddy nodded. Antonio quickly pointed to the couch. "Please, sit."Eddy nodded and sat, although he still did not feel comfortable.To Sienna, Antonio said, "Go, get our guest something to drink! Hurry!"Sienna stood up and left. As she made her way to the kitchen, she kept trying to remember where she had hear

    Eddy's head quickly whipped to the angle the voice had come from. His jaw dropped the moment he saw the lady who had called him, walking towards him. For a moment, Eddy lost himself in the magnificence way her hips swayed as she walked towards him.Her black hair danced with the wind, making her look like a celebrity. Her eyes were clear and focused on him. Eddy was so lost in her beauty that he did not see her stop in front of him."Hey, mister! Here!" She snapped her fingers before Eddy, jolting him to reality. "Who are you?""Uhm," Eddy suddenly became confused. He scratched his head that was not itching. "I, I, uhm-i..." he suddenly coughed. "I am Martin Derek, a writer. I have a letter for Mr. Antonio.""Martin Derek..." The woman drawled, looking at Eddy's messy red hair. His eyes were a brilliant shade of jade, shinning through the spectacles on the bridge of his nose. "You don't look like a 'Martin Derek'," she stated."W-what?" Eddy chuckled nervously. He adjusted the tie on

    "How do we get in?" Damien asked.Eleanor had suggested that they try to get into the Huxton's site, but they needed to find a way in. How to bypass the security at the gate without drawing attention to themselves."Well," Eleanor said, chewing her pen cover under the watchful gazes of Damien and Eddy. "How about we use Eddy?""As a scapegoat?" Eddy asked, with wide eyes. "No, thank you! My boss would not eve-""I agree," Damien nodded, surprising Eddy who shook his head slowly."I knew it!" Eddy cried. "You hated me for a very long time. Now, you are gonna send me to my death."Eleanor smiled."Stop being fussy, Ed." She turned to him. "Nothing's gonna happen to you. I have a plan."Eddy slumped to his knees."She has a plan," he kept muttering."What's with him?" Eleanor asked, turning to Damien who simply smiled."He's fine…" he replied. "What's the plan?".*.*.*.Eddy was sweating. Every step he took was as if he was walking on pins to his demise.How did he let Eleanor and Damien

    CHAPTER 56… WE MAKE A PRETTY GOOD COUPLE.*.*.*.*.*.When Eleanor got out of bed the next morning, breakfast had already been served in a tray and placed by her bedside.She yawned, stretched and got out of bed. After her shower and dressing up, she returned to the blue themed bedroom. It was large, about the same size of her bedroom back home.As she was about to sit and dig into the breakfast in the tray, a knock interrupted her."Door's open," She called, watching to see who would come in.Damien walked in. He had already bathed and was dressed in a pair of blue sweatpants, and yet, another thousand dollars Nike shoes."Did not think you would be up already," He said, pointing at her. "And I see you are already dressed up."Eleanor nodded."Hmmm. Good morning," She greeted and turned to her tray of food. "Care to join me for breakfast?" She asked, glancing at him before adding, "it's the least I could do to thank you for bringing me to such a comfortable room."Damien nodded."Enjo

    CHAPTER 55… SAD NEWSDamien's eyebrows shot up in surprise. He had expected Eleanor to be anything but not a hacker. He was tempted to tell her 'no', but as he looked into her eyes, he could see clearly, the unwavering determination that mirrored his own.Toni turned to Eleanor, her eyes widening in surprise."Can you do it?" she asked, her voice filled with a mix of skepticism and hope.Eleanor nodded, a small smile playing on her lips."Yes, I'm a hacker too," she revealed, her tone filled with a quiet confidence. "I can break through that firewall, gather the information we need, and I'll also make sure to log out before the system can trace me."Toni's doubt did not fade away, but she let Eleanor take the seat, then she stood behind her."Let's see what we got here..." Eleanor drawled as she began tapping quickly on the keyboard. Her eyes stuck to the screen of the computer as she worked with a very clear mind.As for Damien, he found himself curious to see if she could really do

    CHAPTER 54... A HACKER.*.*.*.*.*.The next morning, Damien looked out at the vibrant city of Spain, feeling a sense of nostalgia washing over him. It had been far too long since he last visited, but the familiarity tugged at his heartstrings, welcoming him back like an old friend.Eleanor sat quietly in the cab, her gaze fixed on the passing streets. Her mind was filled with thoughts as she observed the people around her. While many smiled and exchanged greetings, she could see glimpses of hidden struggles and doubts behind those cheerful facades. It saddened her to realize that there was often more beneath the surface than met the eye."We can finally move out of the hotel," Damien noted, pulling Eleanor's attention back to him as the driver kept driving. His voice was filled with a sense of relief. Curiosity sparked in Eleanor's eyes as she could not help but wonder. "Just how wealthy are you?" she asked, a faint smile playing on her lips.Damien shrugged casually, not giving too

    CHAPTER 53… LOOKALIKE .*.*.*.*.*.The next morning, Selena came out of the house pulling a suitcase behind her. Behind her, Cassie was pulling another, and then Penny, who was carrying a lunch basket.Damien was already waiting for her in front of his car. When he saw her, he put his phone away and like a gentleman, reached for the suitcase in her hand.Eleanor hesitated and said, "You do not have to come along if you do not want to, you know."Damien hissed and pulled the suitcase out of her grip gently. "Firstly, I'm going on this trip because I want to. Secondly, I'm going because I have a meeting in Spain. And thirdly," He paused and flashed her a wink. "Let's leave that one for later.""If anything happens to her, you will not make it out of Spain alive!"
