“What?” Madison’s eyes were wide as she took in the information Lydia just told her.“You heard me, I told Archer that I didn't trust the guy and he shouldn't either but he doesn't want to listen to me.”“You cannot blame him, he needs this so bad and he needs to figure out all this by himself,”“But he will be heartbroken,” Lydia whined, “I mean, how broken would he feel if he found out his twin brother who looked nice from the start turned out to be the devil incarnate.”Madison shrugged, “Trust me, he needs it.”Lydia sighed, she had found her way to Madison’s building and was amazed at how big Madison had built this.Before she got a job with Archer, she had heard of the coup they had planned with a rival company till the company became Madison’s.That was when Lydia decided that Madison was her role model in the business world.“Can you at least talk to him? He listens to you.”Madison averted her eyes and looked down at the floor, “I haven't spoken to him since the party but I w

“No,” Gabriel said.Archer’s eyes widened, “you don't even know what I am about to say,”Gabriel shook his head, “I can tell from the look on your face, you want to ask me if Arthur can come live here,”“Surely you can understand,”“No, he is a stranger. He has not attempted to gain the trust of people around you. What makes you think the others would feel having him around,”Archer shook his head, he thought of it but he figured the only way was to let him be close to everyone.“Gabriel,”“Unless you want to force your order but I am telling you that it's not a good idea, we don't know what he wants and why he approached you. He might have the same face as you but it doesn't mean he has the same heart.”Archer paused, it was the same thing Lydia said.“Did you find anything?”Gabriel sighed, “I haven't heard anything. It's like he has nothing to hide and you know that's when they have the most to hide. I don't trust him,”Archer nodded, “I am not saying I do, but he is my brother.”“

Archer looked dapper in his suit, he opened the door with a smile as the whole party trooped in with smiles on their faces.“Welcome,” he greeted them.The whole place smelled great and the food was already on the table. Sylvester stepped forward with a bottle of wine, “this place looks nice,”They did the whole man handshake and Archer grinned. Madison reluctantly hugged him, she leaned in to kiss his cheek when Archer turned, and they both froze.Their eyes met and held till someone cleared their throat, Madison smiled and thanked Archer for inviting her.Arthur was the last to come in, he had flowers in his hands and wanted to hand it to Archer but he whistled lowly when he saw Madison standing there.He gave the flowers to her, “You look beautiful, this for you.”Madison blushed but she accepted the flowers, Archer rolled his eyes and turned to them.“Thank you for coming, everyone this is Arthur my brother, Arthur meet my family.”One by one, they introduced themselves till it go

Arthur cursed as the older man in front of him stared at him."That's all you have to say?" the man asked him,Arthur nodded, "The dinner didn't go as planned, what am I supposed to do?" he asked.The man whirled on him, his eyes blazing with anger, "You are supposed to roll over and play with them, not show your galliant attitude on the first dinner invite,""You think I wanted that to happen?""What I think is that you want to protect your brother because of the plans we have for him," the man said.Arthur shook his head, "You are wrong, I don't want to protect him, he grew up with everything I don't have, what makes you think I would want to spare him,"The man looked amused, "And they say blood is thicker than water,"Arthur smiled but it came out more as a grimace, the man looked at him for a long time before he shook his head."I will be in touch," he said before he walked away.Arthur sank down with his head in his hand as he let out a breath, a groan escaped his lips before he

"Let's hear it," Archer encouraged sarcastically,"I was just looking for..." Arthur stuttered.Archer scoffed, "I don't have all day to listen to you stutter. Say what you were doing in my office and get out,""I am sorry,""No, you do not get to apologize. I invited you to my home while all you did was try to steal frome me. They warned me but I was too eager to know my brother,""Those people don't understand what I have been...""Not this again, it's getting old. Those people did nothing to you. If you were having problems then you should have come to me. I don't care if we have known each other for a week but you talk to me and let me decide if I want to help you or now. You do not get to try and steal from me then turn around to play the victim," Archer scolded.Arthur bent his head out of shame but he lifted it up and met Archer's gaze, "This is what I am talking about, you knew I was coming and you installed a camera just to spy on me,"Archer couldn't believe his ears, it fel

Archer woke up to an aggressive knock on his door, "Who is it?""Archer, there is something you should see," Lydia called from the door. He sprang up quickly from the bed and headed to the door. He opened it just to see Lydia's worried face,"What is this?" he asked,"Come with me," She said and walked away like she was on fire.Archer followed her to the living room, he saw Gabriel standing there with a grim look on his face."What's going on?"Gabriel brought out a file tied to a brick, "Your brother sent his message, loud and clear.""I am confused, what message?" Archer looked at the both of them and they looked at each other. Lydia shrugged and Gabriel sighed."I am sure you did not wake me up just to keep mute," He said.Gabriel stepped forward at this and spread his arms out, his jaw clenched like he was struggling to keep his anger in check."He threw this into the house, he smashed our window just to get your reaction,"Archer was even more confused as he walked closer to Arc

It's been a week since Arthur served the papers. There has been radio silence and Archer refused to let that get to him.He has been on the lookout for anything but nothing came. He was in the bar with Sylvester who was laughing so hard at why Archer said.“Tell me again,”Archer rolled his eyes, “He tried to steal from me then proceeds to sue me for half, can you believe that?”“Why am I just hearing about this?” Sylvester asked.Archer shrugged, “I have been busy, the idiot declared war on me like he has an idea what he is fighting for, I have been busy trying to get my defenses tight,"“Did you consider that he might be in trouble,”Archer sighed, “I thought about it but a call he made had me thinking that he might be working with them to get something from me, besides he kept saying something about being in the big leagues. That doesn't sound like someone in trouble,"Sylvester narrowed his eyes, “You feel he approached you on purpose?”Archer nodded, “Yeah, he did.”Sylvester le

"Very funny," Arthur mumbed, "Why are you here?" Archer asked, "No particular reason," Archer studied his brother for a while before you started laughing, "It's not going the way you planned it?" "I don't know what you mean," "Allow me to tell you," Archer leaned forward with a smirk, "You filed a lawsuit against me and expected me to play your game. The people backing you probably told you that there was no way I would let it get that far but you didn't count on me accepting the situation," "No, but I..." "But nothing, if that's not the case then what are you doing here? Did you come here to sue for something else?" "I came to ask you why you accepted it," Archer shrugged, "Why do you think? Because I know you will not win. If you were interested, you will sit down and we can talk about this but you went ahead to sue, knowing it would cost damages to my company and also give your anonymous supporters enough time to penetrate," "What makes you think you can win? I have a pret

The lawyer smiled, " I am sorry to dissappoint,""No, I wasn't trying to insult you but your name gave me that impression,""I can understand why that would confuse you. My name is Charlene Meksin but most people call me Charlie because of my courtroom victories,""My name is Archer, it is nice to put a face to the name.""Please call me Charlene, regardless of what people think. I don't like the name Charlie," she said.Archer chuckled, "I can work with that,"Charlene regarded him for a moment before she brought out her note pad, "I am going to tell you what I tell my clients before we get to the courtroom, is there a way we can settle this without the court?"Archer shook his head regretfully, "I don't think my brother wants to settle, he is under the impression that I wronged him,"Charlene sighed, "Very well, Archer. I am going to need you to be transparent with me. For this to work, we need to have trust between us. I do not care if you are guilty or not, my job is to prevent yo

From Heartache to Heir/Lustre Okengwu
Archer found himself sitting in a restaurant with Charlene who had a smile on her face as she stared at him. He found it strange that she would ask him out to dinner after the first day of meeting him. He knew he was charming but not to this extent. "What are you thinking about?" she asked with that same smile playing on her lips. He shrugged, "I just find it weird we are doing this. I am your client, Isn't there a rule against this sort of thing?" She chuckled, "There is but just trust me to know what I am doing," Archer nodded although he didn't voice out what his thoughts were. He didn't want this to jeopardize the case or anything related to it. "What punishment do you think my assistant deserves for embarrassing you like that?" she asked, "I would say fire her but after much consideration, I think she should keep working. Seeing me there constantly would cause her guilt to triple,"Charlene stared at him for a minute before she started laughing, "I never knew you had a wick
