Louis hastily pulled down her skirt, and pulled up her panties, as she sighed loudly, her eyes fixed at Kendrick for some minutes.
"What the f*CK!!, Who the hell is this, babe?" The tall man who happened to be a rich fellow, an heir to Da Thrones Nation of Millionaires yelled at Louis, as he fumed bitterly trying to buckle his belts. "He is… it's no one babe, … I can explain…" Louis stammered as she was caught red-handed, clinging to Alexander Bones who wanted to storm out of the room angrily. "Explain what? I want to hear your explanations!! What do you have to say?" Kendrick yelled as he breathed heavily. His world felt empty that very moment. His eyes thickened with urgency as he stared at her, but then Louis shocked him the more. "Shut your traps and never say another word, How many times have I asked you to sign the fucking divorce papers and yet you refuse?" She screamed at him, her words landed on Kendrick's heart, shattering it into many pieces. His face usually composed and gentle contorted in a mixture of shock and agony, his eyes widened. Pupils dilating as the reality of the scene seared itself into his mind. "Y... you don't seem to feel remorse for what you did, Louis' ' Kendrick forced words out of his mouth again, his eyes clouded with tears but he held it. He felt a visceral chill run down his spine, a shock so profound that left him momentarily paralyzed. His mouth opened slightly but no other word emerged; the weight of the humiliation had ruined his day, now his wife's betrayal had stolen his voice. In a minute, Katherine Rogers along with Peace Churchill, Louis' mother rushed to the scene after a maid had informed them that Kendrick had left the kitchen into the main building. The atmosphere in the room was suffocating, the air thick with the scent of infidelity. "What the hell is happening here?" Katherine Rogers asked, and Kendrick turned to her immediately, by now the lovers lost in their deciet were fully dressed while Louis kept raining abuses on Kendrick. "Kendrick, how the hell did you manage to leave the kitchen? I told never to leave the kitchen until the end of the party, today, didn't I? Katherine screamed at him, not saying a word to Alexander who sat on the chair, his head bent to the ground. " But Grandmother-in-law… What do you mean? Did you say I shouldn't leave the kitchen so I wouldn't see this?" Kendrick replied coldly but his words fell on deaf ears. "And now that you've seen it, what are you gonna do? What do you think happened here?" Peace Churchill replied back forcibly. "You thought I could allow my daughter to remain with a poor and battered thing like you for the rest of her life, did you?Oh… no, that's too far from reality. No woman in her rightful senses would allow that, you man" Kendrick turned again to Louis who sat on the couch without remorse, she was panting, her face looking sullen and different as she leaned on Alexander's shoulders . " Louis, how could you do this to me?, I trusted you with my life, I mean, I loved you beyond measure." Kendrick sobbed a bit as he spoke. "Oh, for goodness sake, spare her with the love trash talk, she never loved you and that's final, and no one would allow her beautiful and curvy daughter to settle with a shameful man like you" Peace replied and turned to Louis who winked at her with a smile. "Now that you've found this, I would allow her burst your bubbles and calm your nerves a bit" Katherine interrupted as she tapped Louis to speak up. "Spill the beans my daughter, spill it to this peasant" Katherine said. Louis smiled again, then turned to Kendrick who was staring at her in anticipation. Her eyes rolled as she spoke. "I'm pregnant and it's for Alexander!!" Kendrick's eyes flared up instantly, his heart sinking into a tempest of emotions - rage, sorrow, panic, disbelief churning within him, he could feel the weight of the betrayal pressing on his shoulders. His hands trembled, fingers twitching as if reaching for something to anchor him in his nightmare. He glanced at Louis one last time as he stormed out of the house, banging the door behind him. ************ Outside the Rogers mansion, his phone chimbed. He fumed without looking at it, but then it rang the second time, he reached for his pocket and brought it out, checked the screen and the ID showed an unrecognised number. He picked the call and placed it on speaker. "Hello my boy" A bold and heavy male voice filled with poised sounded from the other side, he listened again before replying, he could recognize it, it was his father's voice. "Congratulations son, now you're a man, you've just passed the test you were given. Mention your location so I send my drivers to pick you up". Kendrick felt a surge of release wash over him as he heard the congratulatory response from his father, he had not expected that anytime soon. And now, he would face the world in another dimension, not as a maid but as a royalty. His face radiated like the morning sun, he smiled till his lips curved, rounding his cheeks. "Yess!!" He screamed, folding his fists and punching the air, the calm evening breeze blew over his face making his hair dangle. "Have you heard, son?" His father responded again and he chuckled. "Okay, dad" He managed to utter a reply, his voice sounding light and pleasing, disbelief washed over him. Must he be kidding? When did he travel down here?" He muttered to himself gently, conveying the depths of his curiosity. "When should I expect you, dad? He asked hurriedly but then his father lingered for some minutes before responding. "For passing this test, I can say you're a man now and $20,000,000,000 has been paid into your accounts now". Kendrick's heart raced as he processed his father's words. His mind struggled to comprehend the enormity of the sum—$20,000,000,000. It was a figure beyond his wildest dreams, a sum that promised unimaginable possibilities. "Thank you, Dad! This is... I don't know what to say!" The screen loaded slowly, each second stretching into an eternity. When the numbers finally appeared, Kendrick's eyes widened, and his breath caught in his throat. There it was, a string of zeros that seemed almost surreal. His knees felt weak, and he sank onto the porch steps, the reality of his newfound fortune washing over him in waves. "Are you still there, son?" His father's voice crackled through the phone.Related Chapters

Kendrick, struck with silence for some minutes, he still couldn't believe that it was his father's voice he heard over the phone. He wondered what could make a strict man like Peterson Davis, to visit Texas in search of him after three years plus. He smiled gently and muttered to himself. "Could this be a joke or am I fooled?" He cleared his throat and muttered a reply, "I'm in the outskirts of Congress Avenue, Austin Texas" He stammered as he spoke, his voice tinged with unbelief as he jolted back into the Rogers mansion. The look on his face seemed different, now his heart wasn't heaving any longer, his eyes scanned the area for Mrs. Katherine Rogers who was by now exchanging pleasantries with the members of her family, and dignitaries as they were preparing to depart. "Possibly the party has come to a close, would she still talk to me the way she did earlier?" He whispered to himself as he walked towards her. Louis stood behind Alexander, who was patting her ha

Various thoughts ran through Kendrick's mind. Confusion clouded his face, as a beautiful and curvy young lady stepped out of the car, her steps majestic as she walked towards Kendrick. "Why would Dad send a lady instead?" He whispered to himself. Her dress, a flowing crimson silk with darted beads of diamonds sparkling all over it, her curvaceous body highlighting her hourglass figure. Kendrick stared at her with a mixture of shock and surprise, of course, Louis was indeed beautiful but none was as beautiful as the young lady who marched towards him. For the Roger's family, they stared in awe and confusion. The air thickened as Louis moved a step from Alexander's shaking her head and biting her fingers. "This should be a mistake, probably he has fixed up with another wealthy family, what do you think?" "Exactly my point Louis, this was almost the same thing that happened when grandfather picked him from the street" Maverick replied as they all busted into laughter.

The next morning's sun cast its golden rays upon the scene, illuminating the manicured lawns and gardens, which shimmered like an emerald canvas. The soft, dewy grass sparkled with tiny droplets of moisture, creating a dazzling display of natural beauty. As Kendrick woke from his sleep, the sweet melodic chirping of birds filled the air, their gentle trills and warbles echoing through the tranquil atmosphere. The trees, adorned with lush foliage, stood sentinel, their branches swaying gently in the morning breeze, providing a soothing background hum. The Peterson's mansion's imposing entrance, flanked by two majestic pillars, beckoned a start of a new day for him. The sound of birds nesting in the trees outside the compound created a tune of natural sounds, a chorus of welcome that harmonised with the gentle morning light. Kendrick Peterson had finally arrived at his family's ancestral home, a place he never knew of. He awoke to a knock on the door. "Good morning young master,

His father's voice dropped to a whisper, his face twisted in anguish. "It's about your brother, Kelly...., Maradona...he was responsible for his death." Kendrick's eyes nearly popped out of his head, his jaw slackening in disbelief. "What? No...that can't be!" His father's face crumpled, his body shaking. "I'm so sorry, Kendrick. I should have protected him. I should have done everything to keep him safe, but Grandfather never allowed me." " How Dad, I don't get the whole thing... You mean, Kelly was killed by uncle Maradona?" Kendrick replied coldly, his lips parted. The air was heavy with tension, the weight of the words pressing down on him. Kendrick's mind reeled, trying to process the bombshells his father had just dropped. He felt like his whole world had been turned upside down. As his father's motions subsided, Kendrick's anger ignited. "That uncle of mine...I'll make him pay for what he's done!" His father's face, still etched with pain, held a warning. "Kendr

Alexander chuckled, his eyes gleaming with amusement, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Oh, Kendrick. You think you can just waltz in here and demand special treatment? You're just a maid, after all. What makes you think you deserve VIP care?" The air seemed to crackle with tension, the silence between them heavy with unspoken animosity. Kendrick's face twisted in rage, his fists clenched at his sides. "This is unprofessional, Alexander." Kendrick gasped, his heart heaving hard. Dr. Alexander raised an eyebrow, his smirk growing wider. Oh, I don't think so, Kendrick. You see, Mrs. Fiona's treatment requires a hefty sum of 70,000,000 dollars. And I highly doubt a mere maid like you can afford that." Kendrick's eyes flashed with anger, but he remained calm, his mind racing. He reached for his bank debit card and handed it to the hospital cashier. "Use this to pay for my mother's treatment." "Okay sir" a young man in his early 30's replied. Kendrick's eyes widened w

Just as Kendrick was about to demand answers, the hospital's alarm system blared to life, and a voice echoed over the intercom. "Code blue, code blue. We have a patient in critical condition. Dr. Thompson, please report to the ICU immediately." Dr. Thompson's expression turned grave. "That's your mother's room," she said to Kendrick. "Come, we have to go. Now." *********** Dr. Thompson burst into the ICU, Kendrick close behind. The room was a flurry of activity, nurses and doctors swarming around his mother's bed. The machines beeped and whirred, monitoring her fragile vital signs. "What's the situation?" Dr. Thompson demanded, her eyes scanning the team. "Patient's oxygen saturation is dropping, Doctor," a nurse replied, her face tense. "We're trying to intubate, but it's not working." Dr. Thompson swiftly assessed the situation, her expression grim. "We need to perform an emergency thoracotomy. Get the surgical team ready, stat!" Kendrick's heart raced as he watched the

Unknown to Jackson Ryder, the powerful Commissioner of Health, Kendrick was the sole surviving son of Mr. Peterson, a business magnate with a reputation for ruthless determination. Peterson's enemies, the Maradona's and others, had been relentless in their pursuit of his family's downfall. To protect his son, Peterson had sent Kendrick to Austin, Texas, a place he believed was safe from prying eyes. But there was one man who knew the truth - old Roger, who had taken Kendrick under his roof, until his untimely demise. Meanwhile, a curvaceous lady, Stelcy, walked into the hospital, her eyes scanning the area with a quiet intensity. She approached the receptionist, her voice firm but polite, with a hint of authority. "I'm here to see my mother, Mrs. Fiona Peterson." The receptionist, aware of the storm brewing, replied swiftly. "Let me check, ma'am." As Stelcy waited, Alexander, trailed by her beauty and poise, approached her. "Hi, I'm Dr. Alexander. Can I help you?" H

How on earth did Stelcy become so friendly and loyal? Kendrick thought to himself as he pondered within him. His mind buried on a thought from several years, Mr. Sparrow, her father had been enemies with the Peterson's family. A sense of foreboding washed over him. "Where are we heading, sir? The driver askedBut then Kendrick's eyes snapped open, his gaze locking into Brown as if awakened from a trance. He blinked twice, his mind struggling to reconcile the harsh reality with the haze of his thoughts."W-what?" he stuttered, his voice sounding low. "I asked where we're heading from here." Brown replied. "Okay, you'll take me home right away, so I could change up Immediately." 30 minutes later, they arrived at the Peterson's mansion and Kendrick rushed out, his steps carrying the weight of the urgency. "You're welcome sir." A guard greeted him. "Yeah, thanks. Kendrick replied, then paused … Tell Brown I'll be out again in a moment" he added as he walked into the house. "Ye

His man lover, Freddy, brought out the wine from the wine safe and popped it open. He giggled at the pop sound made from the cork on the wine's seal……Then poured some of its contents into two glasses. He gave Maverick one while he played with the other. He pulled himself on top of the table and sat there, his legs crossed. “A win for one is a win for all.” He smiled, raising the glass.“Cheers.” Their glasses clicked and they took a sip each. Maverick came closer, he smelt his face and smacked his butt, he giggled like a lady. Maverick finished the content of the entire glass and dropped it, —thud, on the table. He was ready for some serious business… he held him by the waist.He inhaled, tasting the lust in the air_ his nature tool, getting hardened underneath his pants.Freddy finished his own glass and dropped it gently on the table.“Come give me some.” Maverick said, his tone inviting and hoarse. A smug smile crept on Freddy's face, he loved to see him beg for attention.He d

“That's a bad idea Lisa.” Bridgette slammed, shoving it off.“Think about it_” she went on, not backing down. “Something enticing for the eyes. Appetizers for the soul and body but we aren't eating them—No.” She cajoled, raising her index finger, she waved a no in the air.“Don't tell me you don't miss the days when Kendrick shoved his rod up your folded sheets.” She flattered, giggling. Her words were convincing and impairing. She got on the pole and wrapped her flexible, feminine legs around it, her arms grabbed it and she let her legs spin her around. She swirled and twirled on it, tilted back and balanced in the air, making stunts Bridgette felt were impossible… releasing her arms and letting her legs stay on the pole while she spun in all directions. Bridgette's eyes were intently watching her every move_ she must admit, she looked really sexy and fascinating on that pole. There was nothing missing, she did it like a pro–she watched in earnest amusement.She couldn't hide the

“Is he scared you'd try to fight him off? Why the hurry?” Kendrick asked, not as surprised as he sounded.“No idea.” Xavier shrugged, exhaling sharply. “When he saw me the other day at the mansion_ the time I went to see Bridget? He was shocked to his bones and didn't seem pleased to see me at all.” Xavier explained.“He told me right there and then that you left him in charge so… in other words he was asking me to back off.”“That's if I ever had an intention of fighting over the properties with him.” he added, sarcasm in his tone, he flipped the pages of the file in his hand.“But there's no handwritten document that states I left him in charge.” Kendrick retorted, narrowing his eyes to avoid the piercing rays of the sun. “Yes_ even so. You controlled some of the Rogers assets and he stands as an heir.” Xavier explained.“Oh!” He realized.“Gosh, it's so hot up here_ and windy too.” Kendrick muttered, away from the subject matter. The wind, playing with his hair.“He intends to set

Hanging delicately on the high cliff of a picturesque mountain. Kendrick tugged his hands into the fine sand inside a small sac dangling behind his back. Sweat drops clustered all over his face and stopped, turned and stared back at the distance… how far he'd come. Then he aimed for another point with his hand. He grabs it and pulls himself up. He did the same again but missed, he almost slipped but found his stance on one hand before launching again to the other point where he felt was safer. He let out a victorious laugh when he succeeded. He stayed there for a while taking deep breaths.He looked at the clear sky and admired it but it wasn't long until the blinding sun rays forced him to find coverage for his exposed eyes. He narrowed his eyes to reduce the effect of the sun on them and looked away. He closed his eyes and steadied his breath. Eventually, a picture of Bridgette floods his mind. Her beauty radiates through his eyes as blinding and captivating as the sunrays.There

“Don't worry_ I've got the house cell number. I have a walkie talkie with me__ and—” he searched himself, finding that he didn't miss anything. He continued. “Well, if I'm in trouble, be rest assured that I'll reach out to you.” he winked.Xavier wasn't content.“So this place__ where exactly are you going?” he asked, his eyebrows furrowed with worry. “In case you go missing I could get the search men to find you at that location.”“I don't know_” Kendrick shrugged. “Swanee, Monroe…” he tried to guess possible places he might go but gave up, the list was endless.“You know what they say_ Atlanta is a city in the forest. So__” He shrugged. “So, you're using the sports bike I saw outside?” Xavier asked.“Yeah— cool right?” — he smiled from cheek to cheek, like a little boy excited about balloons. “When did you learn how to ride a bike?” Xavier wondered, his eyes narrowing as curiosity filled his eyes.“Seriously_ what a question.” Kendrick face palmed himself. “I know how to do a lot

Before Bridget could reply, the bartender leaned forward again, undeterred. “Seriously, though. If you want to ditch this place, I can help.” He winked, his confidence irritating Bridget even more.“I don’t need your suggestions,” she snapped before turning back to Lisa. “Leave me alone Bridget, I'm fine. If you really care, go cry somewhere.” She shot, regretting those words immediately they came out. “I'm so sorry!” She apologized, trying to hold her hand.She fell on her knees and rubbed both hands as she begged Bridget. “I'm sorry” she mouthed.Bridget looked at her, tears gathering in her eyes. She felt terrible. She didn't expect this from her.“Hey—hey, Please, I'm sorry__ that came out wrong.” She said, holding her hand but Bridget moved and pulled her hand away.“Thanks for the trip.” She said, her tone was cold… tears flowed down her face freely as she walked away.“Bridget…” Lisa attempted to get up and go after her but the bartender held her back. “Let her be.” He said. “

The clanging of metal echoed through the corridor, mingling with the blaring of a security alarm, as Maverick's uncle was escorted from his prison quarters into the visiting room. His arms and legs were shackled, the chains rattling with each step. He sank into the chair across from Maverick with a heavy sigh, his movements deliberate and his demeanor cold.His face was a mask of stone, unreadable, with no hint of emotion.“Is Kendrick dead?” His gravelly voice cut through the silence, sharp and direct.Maverick forced a nervous smile, attempting to mask his unease. “Good day, Uncle,” he greeted, his tone strained. “And yes… he’s dead.”“Then what are you waiting for?” his uncle growled, tugging at his restraints with a grimace. “Get me out of here!”“Of course. I will,” Maverick assured him, his voice smooth, though his eyes betrayed a flicker of hesitation. “As soon as I secure the assets and Kendrick’s fortune.”A flicker of approval crossed his uncle’s face. “Good. And his wife?”

Bridget ran inside and collapsed onto her soft, queen-sized bed. Her sobs soaked a patch of the sheets as she turned over to face the ceiling, her tears refusing to stop.Everything felt so surreal. Everyone's acting so chill like Kendrick didn't mean anything to them… everyone just moved on so easily. It was like he was a fleeting memory—easily erased. Even his best friend, Xavier, had moved on like it was nothing.Her thoughts spiraled as she considered the grim reality of her situation. Her life was now at the mercy of Maverick, a man driven by greed. The endless possibilities of what he might do consumed her mind until exhaustion took over, and she fell into an uneasy sleep.°“How is she?” Kendrick asked the moment Xavier entered the room.Xavier shot him a glare as he shut the door behind him. “What do you think?”Kendrick didn’t reply. Instead, he took another sip of whiskey, his expression unreadable.“She’s miserable,” Xavier muttered. “She’s a shadow of herself, and Maverick

Xavier’s gaze faltered. He sighed and looked away, staring into the void before him. “Kendrick was shot.” He stated. “I barely escaped.” He added.She shut her eyes tight, hoping she hadn't heard right.“ A bullet grazed my arm—it was close but not fatal.” He continued. “Everything seemed so calm, so peaceful, at first. He even talked about meeting you at the airport. He waited expecting you but…” His voice trailed off, the weight of his words settling between them.Bridget’s breath hitched. “And?” she whispered, almost inaudibly.“I tried to save him, Bridget,” Xavier said, turning to face her fully. His eyes brimmed with guilt. “The first shot caught him off guard. It was fatal. By the time we got him to our private hospital, it was too late. He… he was gone.”Bridget turned away sharply, her arms wrapping around herself as if to shield her from the reality unraveling before her. A heavy silence fell over them, each lost in their own thoughts.“I want to see his body,” she said fina
