Brad's eldest daughters, Rose and Amber walked into the CEO’s office looking stunned. They both wore sexually provocative dresses that showed some private part of their bodies. This alone was a huge red flag to working in Brymid or any other professional company. They walked in causally, admiring the CEO’s office. They too wondered why the CEO asked to meet them directly. But they did not give it much thought. Perhaps their daddy had arranged for them to receive special care. Before Nathan could open his mouth to give them permission to sit, the two girls who were provocatively already chewing gum had grabbed the chairs and sat down. Nathan shook his head. This is what happens when a father gets too busy to instill moral values in his kids. They needed to be taught humility. “Were you asked to sit, ladies?” Nathan asked them coldly. Clearly, they still had not realized that this was the very guy they insulted earlier that morning. Quickly, they stood up and slightly appologi

“Yes! Yes, sure.” Nathan was the first to speak. April nodded in agreement too. April felt a bit better knowing that Amanda was no longer interested in Nathan. She and her boyfriend were now on good terms. That was a relief for her. “Alright then, see you by 8.” Amanda smiled and walked away. Neil read the expression on her face. Being the psychologist he was, he could read Amanda’s face and while her lips said one thing, her eyes said another. “Well, that was weird. She is suddenly nice and inviting.” Marcus said. Nathan on the other hand just wanted to have a nice meal and a great time with his friends. He was a busy guy and having the time to sit with his peers was not always there. He was living a two faced life. “Well, it’s good they are finally back together, right,” he smiled and gulped down his drink. He might have discerned that Amanda was trying to be closer to April. But he really did not care. That was not his business now. Soon, lunch time was over. Ever

2 Weeks Later The room was dim and quiet. The only sound entering his ear was the beeping of the machines that lay almost next to his head. He looked up at the machine. It was an EKG monitor life machine. His vision was blurry. His head ached badly. As he tried to move his body, the pain increased. It was excruciating. But the pain was not the only thing holding him back from moving. There were pipes connected to his body, making it difficult for him to move freely. Wait, was he in a hospital? Was he confined to a hospital bed? He looked around and examined where he was. Indeed, he was confined to a hospital bed. There were white sheets covering him, an IV drip attached to his arm, and medical equipment surrounding the bed. He tried to piece together what had happened, but his mind was a foggy mess. Nothing was clear to him at this point. Just then, the door to his room opened, and a nurse walked in, checking his charts. Her eyes widened slightly when she noticed he was awak

Nathan sighed and took a moment to look outside the window. April killed Amanda? She was the person behind Amanda’s murder? He began to wish he never knew, she should never have told him. What was he going to do with this information now? Report April to the police? Get mad at her? Forgive her and hide the truth from the world? “Who else knows this, April?” he asked, strill trying to remain calm. “No one else. Just you. Look, I am fucking scared and confused and I don’t know what to do. I ran away. I should have stayed and confessed!” April sobbed. Nathan tightened his grip on April's hand, his mind racing. "You didn't run away because you wanted to. You were scared. You were protecting yourself." April nodded, her sobs growing louder. "I didn't know what to do. I panicked. I left you here, hoping you'd be okay. I was too scared to stay. I thought if I told anyone, they'd think I was a murderer." Nathan pulled her closer, trying to soothe her. "April, listen to me. You did wha

Nathan’s eyes widened in shock. “Stepbrother?!” Red Wolf chuckled, the sound deep and menacing. “Yes, Nathan. I’m Alex Reed, but most people call me Red Wolf. Our father had a bit of a secret, and well, here I am. I’ve been waiting a long time to meet you.” Nathan took a step back, trying to process the revelation. “Our father? Alex Reed? Look, I don’t know who you are, but I’d advise you to quit joking around. Nathan ordered, slight fear evident in his voice. Alex laughed. “Come on now, Nathan, Fred did inform you that had a stepbrother? Oh, that is sad, man, really sad!” Nathan stood there, ensuring he did not display any emotion, especially not fear. “Well, this cannot be possible. My father had one wife before he died. And even after his death, he still did not get married and so I can only say that you, Mr. Red Wolf are an imposter.” Nathan’s voice was firm, but his mind was racing. Who was this guy claiming to be his stepbrother? Red Wolf, or Alex, chuckled again, his eyes
