"I am sorry, Sir. But your VIP platinum card had been blocked. Would you like to make your payment in cash or do you have another card?"It took Andrew a while for the meaning of the receptionist's words to sink into his subconscious. Forgetting the deal he had with his dad, Andrew decided to buy Andrea a beautiful dinner gown for their outing tonight. And he was shocked when his card was rejected. "Why will your card be blocked?" Andrea asked. She was more than excited when Andrew promised to buy the gown in vogue for her. Hearing the card is blocked immediately brought gloom to her excited face. "I have something to tell you, dear. My dad threatened to disown me if I went ahead with our relationship," Andrew answered back as he pulled Andrea out of the mall. "I guess that was the reason why your card was blocked. So what will you do now?""Don't worry about me. Am just not happy that I can't afford to buy you that pink gown that you desire so much.""It's okay, dear. N

Andrew's feeling when he was told the DNA result of Serah and his own was zero percent compatible was disappointment and dumbfounded, and his disappointment showed on his face as he wobbled out of the laboratory. He had strongly believed the baby was his own and being told otherwise was quite unexpected. Having no other proof to claim his baby, Andrew gave up on his pursuit. Yet still, he harbours some doubt about the authenticity of the result. After dinner one weekend, the pair were cuddling inside Andrew's room when he asked. "What did you think about Jackson's offer?" "I'm against it. Why should we stay in someone's house when we have a place as big as this? Let's stay here until your dad changes his mind." He merely asked for courtesy's sake. He had instructed Marian to buy a nice and comfortable duplex beside the shore, and the place was furnished with the latest gadgets and home appliances. This is the place he will be staying during his remaining days in Arkansas

Andrew had two reasons to believe the king was murdered. First was his declaration to enthrone him, and this was followed by a secret meeting that took place between him and the king before his death. He was deep in thought, as he gazed at the glass of wine in his hand, when a palace maid knocked on his door, marched in, bowed and mumbled, "His royal highness requires your presence, my prince." "I will be with him shortly. " The King was sitting on the throne, and in attendance were the king's adviser and the lord chamberlain. "I'm officially introducing my grandson and the heir to the throne," The king muttered with a glittering face. The Lord Chamberlain wrote something down in the brown-cover book on the table in front of him, smiled, nodded his head and asked, "Which name should I put on this decree? I learnt that our king-to-be is named O'Connor and not Elizabethan." "You were all aware of the circumstances that led to his changed name, weren't you? He will change hi

After searching for Andrea for some months, Andrew gave up and accepted the wishes of the chiefs and kingmakers. Many ladies of aristocratic families were introduced to Andrew, but none seemed to be up to his taste. Apart from Andrea, only Simpson wakes the passion in him. One day under the influence of alcohol, he spent a night with Jasmine, and that was the beginning of a healthy relationship between them. Months later, the pair got married. But it was a one-sided love. Andrew never loved her, and neither did he pretend to. It was a marriage of necessity. Andrea gave birth to a girl but lost her at childbirth. She was sad and depressed but picked up her life when she heard that Andrew had gotten married to Jasmine. In her new city, she fell in love with a rich widower, and both got married immediately and had a male child. A year later, the widower died, and Andrea and her son inherited all his wealth, sold his estate, and then moved back to Arkansas City as a billionaire. Whe

The sun was already glaring in the sky when Andrew woke up. After having a light meal, he decided to visit his ladies, at least for courtesy's sake. They came from far and near, and sending them home without attending to them seemed very insulting. They were put separately in different rooms, and Andrew knocked on the first door and stepped inside.A tall and shapely lady with a beautiful face stood up from the bed and walked towards him. "Good morning, my lord. I have been waiting for you since yesterday and I am glad that you finally come to visit me."The lady hugged him seductively and dragged him towards the bed in the middle of the room. But Andrew gently removed his hand and then motioned to the lady to sit down, while he sat beside her. "What is your name?""Janet, my lord.""And your profession?" "I'm a barrister and I'm working with a private company." Janet placed her palm on Andrew's chin to caress him, but Andrew held her hand, frowned and shook his head. "Take it eas
