Louis' eyes flickered as she marched out of the room, but then Iris held her back."Please wait Ma… you don't need to storm out that way." She turned to her, how on earth was she going to dictate how she moves? She flung her hands and Iris' hands tumbled, losing her grip, and hurried out of her room.Iris stood alone, her mind reeled with unanswered questions, afterall, the building was wide enough to contain both of them… so they could just switch to different rooms." She thought for some minutes, then laughed at herself. Louis rushed into the hallway, and as she moved down the stairs, she bumped into Alexander. He had rushed home, and upon arrival, he had hurried upstairs using the back door, his aim to find out if everything was alright before he could go in, his heart was beating heavily. " Hey Babe." He paused instantly, his words trembling quickly."Hey, you're back??. … What's happening? Why are you early today?" She asked in a curious tone, her eyes widened as she stared

The new day dawned with a vibrant energy, Kendrick sprang out of bed feeling revitalized and fit for the day. He had set the alarm, a perfect timing for his pending meeting with his board of MDs.The alarm blared to life, shattering the silence that accompanied the morning, with a loud "Krrrriiing sound" that echoed through the room.He rubbed his eyes gently, first, he picked up his device and typed a message to his secretary, informing him of the venue for the meeting, the message went across and a tick reflected to show that it was delivered.He strolled into the bathroom, carrying out his morning rituals of bathing and doing down for breakfast, then returned to his room to dress up for the business of the day. In ten minutes, he was already set, so he emerged from his room, his shiny brown leather shoes clicking majestically on the marble floor leaving a spark of class.The sounds of greetings resonated and returned with waves and friendly glances as he opened the door, stepped o

"Hah… no, but I saw a text from him earlier today, he talked about Pat… I read it, but couldn't understand what he meant." Sophia said. "Talked about Pat? My late brother?" Kendrick asked curiously. .." Can I see it, please?" He added. Sophia's eyes widened as she handed her phone to Kendrick, her brow furrowed in confusion. Kendrick glanced through the message and raised his eyes gently to her. " How did you meet this guy and when?" He asked, The room seemed to grow quieter, the only sound the soft hum of the air conditioner in the background. Kendrick asked again in a surprised tone, "I don't seem to understand what he is saying here, or is he saying that he knew about your relationship with Kelly until his demise?" Sophia's eyes darted back and forth, her mind racing. "I met him four months after I missed contact with Pat, … Kelly... I'm fine with calling him Pat." She stammered. Kendrick's eyes narrowed, "I doubt he had anything to do with it, … I can recall m

Immediately Kendrick was out, Peace turned to Louis with a sharp gaze, "Why would you mention that to him… Don't you want this to work out perfectly? What if he finds out and refuses to accept the child?" Louis stared at her coldly, "How sure are you that he wasn't aware it isn't his? Didn't you tell him at the reunion that I was carrying Alexander's baby!" She replied, her voice trembled as she spoke. Maverick who was sitting by the side of the room stood up, and said. "Didn't I tell you guys?... I told you that he was some sort of a royalty, but you'll never listen… I meant, none of you ever thought of why grandfather brought him in, did you? He asked, his eyes turned to Peace, and back to Louis who lowered her face gently. Peace yanked at him, when she saw the reaction on Louis' face, "Shut your mouth! … What are you saying that for? Weren't you also among those who downplayed him?" She asked , her lips curled as she spoke. Maverick returned to his seat, he could feel the

Kendrick arrived home later that evening with a tired look on his face, he stepped out of the car and stumbled into the living room with a sigh that made everyone turn to his direction. "Hey, young master is back." Emily said as she rushed to hug him.Evelyn and Mr. Peterson sat on the sofa facing each other, their eyes raised in a soft gaze, welcoming him back home. "Let me get your bag, young master." Emily said, and Kendrick allowed the bag to her, it was heavy so she contracted as she went up the stairs. "Good evening Dad." Kendrick greeted as he walked closer to him, he sank into the sofa just by his side. "How was work today?... I hope you're getting along with the system… I'm told you had a meeting with the Board of MDs today. Tell me about it." Kendrick stared at him with an amazed look, all he could ever think of what the experience he had with Peace Churchill, so he smiled gently and said. "There was nothing really special about it, I only had to ensure that we placed
