Seth felt as though someone poured him a liter of cold water, his body suddenly felt chill and he couldn’t move his foot from where he stood, maybe it was a momentary shock, maybe he just didn’t want to move. Oliver was restless the whole time that Seth was away and the moment he saw Elijah coming out, his eyes caught Seth standing behind and he rushed immediately to meet him.“What’s the matter, Seth? Were you able to find out anything?” Oliver said. He feared that Seth must have discovered something, something bad and that was why he was acting like that.“Yes, a lot, Oli, a lot.” Seth said as he snapped back to reality, he went back to the hole to look for his shoe but it was pointless, it was long gone. Elijah’s prophecy didn’t include that he was going to find it and so, that was the end of his shoe.“What are you looking for? Where’s your right shoe? Did you lose it?” Oliver said.“Yes, I did and I’m never going to find it unless I have Elijah make some sort of pronouncements. H
“Wow, bro, I’m so proud of you. You definitely made the right decision although it cost you a lot, I’m solidly behind you.” Oliver said as he embraced Seth.“Nothing costs too much when it comes to my family’s safety, it’s my duty after all to take care of you all.” Seth said.“Yes, that’s right. It’s a good thing Penelope didn’t win, the nerve…” Oliver said.“Yes, although it cost me a lot. I’m going to have to break my savings but it’s totally worth it. I mean the look on her face when she could not beat my price was priceless.”Seth said and they both laughed.“But on second thoughts, why would Elijah want to sell the time machine? Who would wave to give up their source of power? The very reason for their recognition and remarkable existence? I would not do that and I know that Elijah would not do that without a solid reason behind it.” Oliver said.“Well, he’s probably broke or he has a duplicate of the machine. You’re right about what you said, there’s no way he would give the tim
“You should have seen Penelope’s face, classic.it pains her so much that she isn’t the one that ended up with the Larinth despite all her preparations to get it and all the plans she had out in place for it. I almost took pity on her but nehh, I didn’t.” Oliver said as he laughed uncontrollably. He expected Seth to join him but he noticed that Seth was not in a good mood and he wondered what could spoil his mood this much, he was happy some moments ago.“What is the matter, brother? You don’t look happy. Did anything happen with Elijah? Did he say it do something?” Oliver said.“Oli, I’m in a big mess, I can’t get the Larinth anymore, someone places a higher bid and Elijah would not settle for less.” Seth said.“What do you mean by that? But it’s yours and it has already been closed. So what’s this about?” Oliver said, furrowing his brows.“Yeah, Oli. If you were him, you would open it again. I mean, the person is willing to pay twenty million dollars.” Seth said.“Whoa! That’s a lot
They arrived at the shooting range, Oliver didn’t expect to be taken to this place“How is this going to help? You won’t even hear me when I talk.” Oliver said.“You are right, don’t talk to me. I brought you here for a reason. Think before speaking, this is a very delicate issue. Roman would not sell the time machine to me, no matter how much I offer, he would just double it and it would keep going on and on like that. He was supposed to have it a some point and I deceived him and got away with it all this time, I never thought that I would get to meet him again in this lifetime. It’s really a small world and there’s no place to hide. The life and wellbeing of my family is in his hands and I have to do something about it. I come here to think sometimes, I want you to think too and give me wise counsel. Put yourself in my shoes.” Seth said.“Okay then, I won’t fail you.” Oliver said. Although he didn’t like the idea, he thought that the sounds of the gunshot for him to think, even wit
“Oli, you better have a brilliant plan to tell me because if that was a joke, you’d have me to contend with.” Seth said as he stood up from the ground and freed himself from Oliver’s embrace. Oliver said nothing, he just remained on the ground, he didn’t bother to get up, he just faces the ground, refusing to talk to Seth or even look at him.“Come on, Oli, we don’t have time for all this drama, tell me the plan, we have to act fast.” Seth said. Oliver still didn’t reply, and Seth was starting to get worried.“So you were going to kill yourself huh? And now, you are looking for the solution. I mean some moments ago, you lost all hope that you were willing to take your own life, I begged you, Seth, you always remind me of how little I mean to you. I think I should tell Daisy and Gabriel about this today so that next time before you show off, you’d think first. “Do you know what I think? I think you were not going to pul the trigger, you just wanted to feel important, you feel the wor
“My love uhh I just want to finish everything up here before I ever back. I told Oliver to leave because he has important things to do back home. Everything is fine, you have nothing to worry about, I’m fine, okay?” Seth said.“Okay, babe. But did you get the information you needed? What is the surprise that Elijah said he has for you?” Daisy said.“Uhh yes, yes I got the information. The surprise? Uhh the surprise… He had not quite shown it to me, he said it would be tomorrow.” Seth lied.“Okay, then. I’ll see you tomorrow right? You know I miss you already.” Daisy said.“I miss you too, my love, I’ll be back tomorrow if Elijah has nothing in store for me. I can’t wait to see you, I love you, bye.” Seth said and ended the call.He sighed deeply and fell to the bed and whispered to himself “that was close, thank you, Oli.” He sprang up from the bed and attempted to call Oliver to thank him personally but he immediately waved off the idea and dropped his phone back. He stayed up all n
Daisy was surprised when William came to the door with a letter in his hands. The letter was addressed to her because she saw her name boldly written on the envelope “Daisy Oscar”. She wondered who still sends letters, that was very old fashioned, she wondered if the person knew nothing about a phone.William, seeing how hesitant she was to collect the letter dropped it on the table because he was in a hurry, he was supposed to escort Christine and Amanda to the hospital to see Amanda’s child just as she promised.“Do you happen to know who the letter is from?” Daisy said as William was about to leave.“I have no idea. I just found it at the doorstep this morning.” William said.Daisy had just woken up, it was William’s knock that woke her up and she didn’t feel like opening the letter because she had a feeling that it was something bad, so she decided to tell Seth first before doing anything.“Okay, thank you, you can go.” Daisy said and William left while she struggled to get out o
“Wait what? What are you doing here? Why is she here? I…I didn’t ask you to come here. Oil, what is happening? How did you know that I was here in the first place?” Seth said, expressing his utmost surprise. He didn’t mince his words even when he saw Daisy there, he made it clear that he didn’t want them there. He was with Roman and Elijah and while they were discussing, Daisy and Oliver came inside. Seth was surprised by the way that Oliver traced him down to where he was because Oliver was not there when he booked the hotel room.“Seth, what’s going on here? Come on we need to talk.” Daisy said. She didn't have the time to give thought to what Seth said. She was clearly angry and hurt and needed to talk to him.Seth looked at Oliver first with questioning eyes, hoping to get a clue about what Daisy wanted to talk about but Oliver immediately looked away.“Well, well… If it’s not our luna. Your highness ma, it’s so good to see you after all these years. How are you?” Roman said with
