She was sitting on a couch and had been sipping a cupful of wine as she awaited her food. She took a sip of the wine, stood up from the couch and walked towards the small table inside her bed chamber. She placed the cup on the table and dashed out of the bed chamber. “And where are these stupid maids?” Queen Alexandra said as she opened the door of the kitchen. “Good morning, my queen,” one of the maids, Alexa said. Queen Alexandra glared, walked towards Alexa and said, “And where is my food?” “Your food?” Alexa said and dropped her soaped mopping stick on the floor. “No…, stone,” queen Alexandra said and hissed. “I am shocked that Berenice hasn’t given you your food. She left the palace some minutes ago,” Alexa said. “And who is Berenice because I haven’t mastered all your names?” queen Alexandra sa

Queen Alexandra stagnated herself, she turned backwards and said, “What do you want from me?” “You have no good thing to offer, wicked soul. What did my mum and I do to you?” Hazel said with a glare. “You want to know? Well, anytime I see you both, I feel like throttling you,” queen Alexandra said. “I see…, cheap murderer. Well, you have failed,” Hazel said. “How did your mum even get you? You are just too pompous,” queen Alexandra said. “ I am not here for any stupid talk; what gave you the temerity to slap my mum?” Hazel said and grimaced. Queen Alexandra smiled and said, “You want to know? Well, she lacks manners of approach and I helped her out.” “I can see you are so stupid. The next time you slap my mum I will teach you some lessons…,” Hazel said. “And what can a weak vessel like you do to my mum?” Calliope, who h

I will make sure that you and your daughter don’t leave this palace alive,” all these thoughts ran through queen Alexandra’s mind as she glared at queen Caroline. “Caroline, you can cry for all I care. Alexandra, tell me what happened…,” King Achilles said. “I am sorry for causing an interruption, my king,” Berenice said, with hand raised up. She walked towards the small table, clutched the used plate and cup. “Queen Alexandra, your food is your room; I am sorry for the delay,” Berenice said as she walked away clutching the used plate and cup. “Stupid maid, you caused all this. I will make sure I deal with you. See her ass like a flattered balloon,” all these thoughts ran through queen Alexandra’s mind as she glared at Berenice. “Queen Alexandra, I am waiting for you,” king Achilles said. “Thank you, my king. I waited for a maid to bring my food, bu

Mason clutched his briefcase and alighted from the car. Mason waved at professor MacPherson, professor MacPherson waved back at Mason and wound up the glass. As the car moved away, Mason trailed it with a smile. He faced the direction of his house and walked towards the entryway. “Open this door! I am back home!” Mason said after he had knocked on the door twice. “Go and open the door, Landon,” Evelyn said from behind, and Mason could hear the words clearly. “Hold on, I am coming,” Landon said as he walked towards the entryway. He pull

We don’t know where Charlotte is kept. So, the best thing is for us to go there in a disguised way,” Logan said. “I think Logan is right, boss. We should go there in a friendly manner so that we can easily know Charlotte’s hideout,” Dickson said. “You two are right. Dickson, you and Jeremy should stay inside the car, while Logan and me go to the palace,” Charles said. “ Alright, boss,” Dickson and Jeremy said. “Please, ensure you wind up the glasses,” Charles said. Charles and Logan alighted from the vehicle and walk

Charlotte, why are you not talking?” Xavier said. “I am shocked because I have never seen these faces before,” Charlotte said, and fixed her gaze completely on the gangsters. “Mr. Aegeus, but you said you are professor MacPherson’s friend?” Xavier said and gazed at Charles and Logan’s faces simultaneously. Charles smiled and said, “I don’t blame Charlotte for not knowing us, since we visit professor MacPherson on rare occasions…” “The professor MacPherson I know is exposed, so I know all his friends,” Charlotte said. “I don’t seem to understand what’s going on here again?” Xavier said. “Just calm down, sir; Charlotte will definitely come around,” Logan said. “Do you work in professor MacPherson’s workplace?” Charlotte said and gazed at Charles’ face. “Professor MacPherson’s workplace? No; we are bu

Charlotte used one of her palms to clean her face and said, “If you are here to rescue me as you have said, please, hide the guns.” Charles and Logan smiled and they hid their guns. “Someone is knocking on the door, boss,” Logan said frightfully. “I can hear the sound too; we need to be courageous,” Charles said as he gazed at Logan’s face. “Alright, boss,” Logan said. The gangsters removed their guns from their pockets and the threesome sauntered towards the entryway. “You have to be calm, Charlotte,” Logan said when the threesome got to the first room. They walked towards the entryway and Charles opened the door gently. As soon as Charles opened the door, they could see Lucas standing in front of them. Logan pointed the gun at Lucas and shot him.

You should be asleep by now,” Charles said as he walked towards the sitting room. “Welcome, dad,” Luca said after he had managed to take his gaze off the television screen. “Thank you, Luca,” Charles said. He sat down and Margaret sat close to him on the couch. “Peyton, can’t you see me?” Charles said with a low tune. Peyton glimpsed at the wall clock and said, “It’s 9:48 pm already and you just walked into this house.” “At least, you should ask where I am coming from,” Charles said with a smile. “Alright, where are you coming from?” Peyton said and fixed her gaze on Charles’ face. “One of our colleagues at my place of work gave birth to a set of twins after waiting for almost three years. So, the birth of the twins was commemorated with a night party today,” Charles said. “So, you are coming from a night party?” Peyton said. “Yeah, Peyton; I am
