Soon, the sitting room came alive, all the members of the Rogers family that stayed with them rushed out, taking their seats in front of the giant screen, their eyes feeding on the News."No matter how hard he strives, he can't be compared to Lowlack Povar of the Roger's family." Peace Churchill snarled. "Possibly he has realized the truth about his low life and he is doing everything to get noticed, …who does that? ….Which billionaire father would allow his son to go into such a risky task?" Katherine Rogers exclaimed, laughing slowly. "But the guy is becoming a hero already, can't you people just see it?" Maverick interrupted. Immediately, the others flared up, their eyes like a sharp spear turned towards him."What are you trying to say now? … I mean what are you insinuating? Peace Churchill asked, …. Does that add money to his bank?" She scowled."No,.. not that way, Peace… all I was saying is that he is becoming some superhero," Maverick replied coldly and they laughed ag
"I'll want you to go to your room and think about it yourself… sometimes you gotta stay behind and allow others to do the work." Mr Peterson said. "You need not worry about anything, Dad… I'll be going up there, I'll see you tomorrow, Dad," Kendrick replied, his voice firm, yet a hint of uncertainty flickered in his eyes as he turned towards the stairs.°The activities at the Oakland site had taken half of Kendrick's strength, leaving him stressed, it showed on his face as he leaped up the stairs, his eyes sunken, his skin pale and dusty. Arriving in his room, he closed the door behind him, the click of the lock echoing through the room, his eyes scanned the space, searching for a sense of comfort, but it eluded him, his mind raced. Who was coming after him? The Maradonas, yes, but who else? His thoughts swirled like a maelstrom, refusing to settle, as he sank into the sofa, his body language screaming exhaustion.His mind restless, as he pondered on who was coming after him, asid
The weekend morning arrived just in time, it was a cold morning, not just a cold weather but it left a cold reflection on the faces of every household in the Peterson's mansion, including the workers. The silence was deafening, the stillness palpable, as if the very air was heavy with unspoken truths. The usual warmth and bustle of the weekend was replaced with a sense of shock, a feeling that something was amiss. Inside the waiting room, a time bomb ticked gently, ready to explode a line-up of 10 guards, flanked by the chief security officer, Xavier.Kendrick's sullen face lowered as his father, Mr. Peterson threw questions on the guards, each piercing through them like a stray bullet."Who amongst who was at work last night when that happened? Who was on duty and who was not?" He asked, his eyes fixed on Xavier who stood at attention, answering questions so none was left unanswered."I am sorry sir, I went to bed early, I didn't dispatch them into the evening's batch," Xavier res
Exactly an hour later, Kendrick arrived at St. Columbus Medical Center, he stepped out of the car and pressed the remote, it made a lock sound. Immediately, he turned towards the entrance, two ladies rushed towards him, an air of happiness showed on their faces. "You must be Kendrick Peterson?" One of them asked.Kendrick wondered for some seconds, then nodded gently." Oh my goodness… I've been trying to connect with you on IG all along, but You've not responded to any of my messages, sir." She said, shaking her hands and limping happily."Oh.. oh, sorry about that … I don't even know you," Kendrick replied, his face still masked a glint of worrines, but he forced a smile and his lips curved. "Hampton Bay is my name and that's my friend, Bliss" The lady replied. "Nice to meet you Hampston and Bliss," Kendrick said politely, as he moved. "One more thing, please… it seems like you're in a hurry," Hampston said."Yeah, exactly… I came to visit a patient here." " Oh, sorry… I h
Kendrick moved out of the door, and quickly ducked Intothe Car, driving back to the house, and in some minutes, he arrived.It seemed like he had arrived just in time. Immediately he stepped out of the car, he saw his Dad flanked by his guards as they moved towards the garage. He was heading somewhere, for the first time in a long while since Kendrick saw him step out of the house."Hey, Dad, you're going out? Kendrick asked as he approached him.His father still seemed provoked by the actions from last night, so he turned to him, his voice sounding stern."I will have to arrange for a family reunion, Kendrick. Soon, all the members of the Davis family would be in Texas. So I need to ensure everything was in place"Kendrick's eyes sparkled, he remembered his father's popular saying ... ."you can always stay behind and allow the rest to do the work." He smiled and replied. "How about you allow someone else to handle this Dad?"Quickly, his father halted, he was already close to ent
Not later than he arrived at the inn, did the guards move towards him in grand reception, the same guys who had halted him the other time now lowered their heads to greet him. Kendrick, surprised by the level of respect they bestowed on him, smiled a bit. "This way Sir." One of them said as he led Kendrick into the hall.Kendrick followed slowly, immediately he entered, his eyes settled on Sophia's stunning gaze, she was up the VIP lounge, leaning against the steel rails that separated the lounge, his eyes sparkled and his lips curled.He had never thought of freeing his thought of Stelcy's action soon, but here he was, a sight of a charming lady made him giggle, he climbed up the stairs, and Sophia hurried towards him, her eyes locked onto his, he knew it wouldn't last a time, since he was about to spill the beans today, he must tell her that she's been mistaking him for someone else, someone gone. "You're welcome sweetheart, I've been clinging to that rail a long time waiting for
Immediately they arrived, Kendrick stepped into a world of wonder, where innovation reigns supreme. The majestic sign of "Apex Imperium" towered above, its bold letters shining like a beacon of excellence. This legendary company was a powerhouse of creativity, where dreams were crafted into reality.As he strolled through the silent yard, the sleeping giants – massive machines and factories – stood like sentinels, waiting for the Monday morning awakening. The only serenade was the gentle hum of the backup generator, a soothing lullaby that filled the air.With each footstep, Kendrick's curiosity was piqued, his imagination running wild with the endless possibilities that lay within these walls. The scent of oil and machinery wafted through the air, a sweet perfume that fueled his creativity. In this temple of innovation, Kendrick's heart raced with excitement, his mind bursting with the potential for magic to happen.Some minutes later, he was done with the inspection so he needed t
Kendrick stood with parted lips as he observed Sophia's actions, he couldn't believe that he's been staying in his brother's room all along.Why on earth would his father make him use the same room his brother had stayed before his demise? He asked himself as he moved closer to Sophia, Immediately her jaw tightened."This is a lot of videos, Pat, but from the last I can see you do what to this lady? I thought she was one of your guard?", She asked, her eyes clouded with bitterness as she observed the footage carefully."Let me have that, please." Kendrick said as he moved faster to her, he has been waiting to have that all his life, and here it is right before him."Get the hell out of me, and never come closer… not an inch, Pat." Sophia yelled as Kendrick for closer, trying to get the phone from her. "What was she doing in your room? Are you both dating? Why didn't you tell me all along?" She screamed, her voice piercing through the walls."That's not it, Sophia… it's not what you
