David's jaw immediately slacked and he was unable to move his face. Did he hear her say what she did?

" Excuse me?" He asked her.

" If I hadn't known better, I would have thought you were the secret heir or something." She propped her head against her hand.

David was distorted on the inside of him, he was trying his best not to expose himself.

" Why– why would you say that?" He asked.

He was praying, crying, in his heart that she hadn't figured his secret out. For her own sake, he was hoping.

" The girls around the office, they have this idea." She pulled closer like she was telling him a secret.

" They do?" He rubbed his jaw.

" They think that the secret heir is among us." She smiled. " They think he is disguised as a fellow worker, and he is waiting for the right time to reveal himself. We are also trying to guess who."

" Don't you think that's a terrible kind of game?" He tried to sound cool, but it wasn't. " You could get into danger."

" The winner is going to get a thous

    Whatever brought her here, it wasn't a good reason. She was glaring at Stefanie and she was just smiling like an innocent child. "Hi." Stefanie waved at her. " Who's she?" She was asking David, but what was he going to say? Natalie had been more of his arch-enemy since the breakup. " Natalie." She thrust out her hand. " And you are?"" Stefanie." She answered with her smile still in place. " I'm David's friend and colleague." " Hm, that's strange." Natalie voiced out. " He never had female friends." " Is that true?" Stefanie looked at David with a laugh. " Well, there is a first time for everything, I guess." " Natalie, what are you doing here?" He rolled his eyes. " Why? Is there a curfew? Are you the police?" She snapped at him. " It's late, you're all alone. It's not like it's my business, but you are going to get yourself in trouble." He said. " Where's your boyfriend?"" I don't have a boyfriend, since you ghosted me." She hissed in his face. " Oh, my God!" Natalie soun

    Natalie laughed when she saw the look of humiliation on Stefanie's face. David was helpless, he didn't even know what to do." Yes! That's what you get when you can't leave other people's boyfriends alone!" Natalie shouted loud enough for everyone to hear.David's hands held Stefanie's own, she looked like she was about to cry." Y'all can look at me and call me crazy!" She pointed her fingers at all of the onlookers. " Yes, I will do anything to take my man back from stealing whores."" For heaven's sake, Natalie, what's wrong with you?!" David couldn't hold it anymore. " Why did you think you had to do this?! Why?!"" Oh, forgive me." She touched her chest. " For trying to secure what is mine."" I'm not yours!" He warned her. " You never wanted anything to do with me, you broke up with me!"" I was kidding!" She bawled louder. " I wanted to push you to get your shit together!"At this point, the other customers were looking around in confusion and cringe.The manager had to immed

    David sat in his office, he didn't even have one last strength to handle what was going on in his head. His thoughts were having a war and it was trying to burst into a headache. Stefanie didn't speak to him anymore, she didn't say one word to him and it was breaking his heart. He tried, he did, but she was very adamant not to speak to him. He got her some snacks and placed them on the table before her. She only glanced at them and kept working. The last time he checked on her, they were the exact way he had left them. So that's why he was alone in his office, he couldn't even work because he was thinking about her. Suddenly the door opened and Rosie's secretary walked in. She was so disrespectful that she pushed the door open with her foot. " Ava, do you even know how to knock?" He frowned at her. " The boss wants to see you, immediately." She said in an icy voice. " Immediately." " I'm on my way," David told her. She didn't leave, she was staring at him, not even blinking

    Rosie gave the road her full attention as she drove them to see her father. She handled the wheel with delicacy like she didn't want to get into any mishap that would delay her. David glanced at her from time to time and saw how worried she was about her father. "Shouldn't we get him something?" David broke the silence."I mean, I would like to stop by the store to get him anything he normally likes." "His health has never been at its peak." She said. "His doctors are very picky about what he eats.""Let's stop by and get some flowers then. I bet that would be what Tommy would get." He said. She only shrugged. When they got to the next flower shop, he got out and went to buy some. He settled for some dandelions. He paid and got back into the car. She resumed driving and they came to drive for another fifteen minutes. Finally, they pulled at the small gate of the "new hope" Retirement home. It was a small building that was surrounded by beautiful flowers and green grasses. She

    Rosie pulled up in front of his apartment. It was a very eventful day for both of them, but they had come to the end of it. She stopped the car and wiped her palm down her face. "Rosie, can I say something?" He asked. "You won't be mad though?"" I can't promise you that, but it's not like I can do anything to you." She shrugged. " I know that my major was in robotic and mechanical engineering, but I will try my best if you need someone to talk to." He assured her. She rubbed her hands over the wheel and laughed. " Why do you think I need someone to talk to?" She turned to him. Trying to control his laughter. He was looking at her blankly like she was crazy for laughing. " Rosie, after everything you have gone through, I'm sure that you are not making a big deal out of it." " You don't know half of what I have been through." She told him. " You can't even relate to it." David looked down at his hands. " My mother–"" I don't care about what you and your mother went through,

    It took Mister Dominic Ford and all his workers to finally get his hand on the real detail. David asked and he was told what happened. Although the domestic workers were not allowed to see him, one of them cunningly took a picture of him intending to use it to extract money. David ran his hand through his hair. " Then who is it?" He asked. "Your father wouldn't say," Gary told him. "But he is going to address this very soon."David looked at Gary, imagining the horror of what was going to happen. His father was going to make that person feel his wrath. "Is he going to kill the person?" David looked up. "You speak as if you don't know your father." Gary laughed. "He has killed people who have committed less crime." Gary stood up and walked to the door. "In two hours, he is going to call for a meeting," Gary said. "You are going to be present, so I suggest that you prepare.""Am I not the one who is supposed to be a secret?" David asked. "What good is it if I join the meeting?"

    David shut his eyes as soon as he heard the gun go off, he really thought that he was going to die. But after the shit went off, he was still alive and breathing. He didn't feel any pain at all. He opened his eyes and saw that Rosie was still pointing the gun at him. When he turned around, there was a hole in the wall, where the bullet had gone through. He felt a wetness on his cheek. He touched it and saw blood, the bullet grazed his face. That was when it dawned on him that she didn't aim to kill him. If she had wanted him to die, she would have let a bullet in his head. Or rather, his father didn't want him to die or he would have killed him. David was terribly shaken by this near-death experience. "The next time you talk back at me, I won't hesitate to kill you." His father warned. "Do you understand that, David?""Yes." David shuttered. "Do you understand?""Yes, sir."The call ended immediately and Rosie dropped the gun and sighed in relief. Gary held his hand over his

    She shook with sobs as she reached for him. David shut the door with his foot as he hugged his mother tightly. "Hey, ma." He whispered. "I've missed you so much." She sobbed. "I haven't seen my baby so much." "It's okay, ma, I'm here now." He rubbed her back. "I was supposed to come for your graduation, but one of my clients had a setback." She said, "I'm sorry, baby."He had his mother's face in his hands. He wiped her tears and smiled at her. She touched his face, just to make sure that it wasn't a dream and her son was really in front of her. "Look how big you've grown." She chuckled. "What kind of mother doesn't see her son for so long?""Mum, we've talked about this." He frowned. "We are not going to blame you for things that aren't yours to control." His mother was a private nurse, mostly for old people who didn't want to die alone in a nursing home. The pay was average, but she had to put in a lot of work and endurance. To balance everything, she still had to take multi

    "Hey!" Stefanie took out her gun.Normally, she would have aimed it at Stefanie, but she knew that it wasn't her doing, so she aimed it at Lucinda. Tears were streaming down Stefanie's eyes, her hand was shaking, but the gun was still pointed at him. "I'm sorry." She sobbed. "I don't want to do it, David, she said she is going to post everything about my past life." "Just do it." He told her with a still face. "Go on, do it!" "Don't say that!" She cried. "Please." "I have the flash right here with me, Stefanie," Lucinda called after her. "If you don't do what I want, I will ruin your life!" "You have the black card, it has more money than anyone has seen in your lineage." Rosie hissed. Lucinda looked at her and laughed. "If it isn't his lap dog speaking." Lucinda mocked her. "How do you feel? You are right behind him all the time and you think that he is not going to fuck you up really soon?" Rosie wasn't fazed, the gun was still pointed at Lucinda, one word from David and s

    Stefanie couldn't understand why Lucinda was smiling even though she had just told her that David ruined her life. She kept down the plate of food, she was now very sure of the fact that it was definitely poisoned. Lucinda noticed this, but she just laughed it off. She picked up the remote control and changed the channel immediately, she had put on a comedy show and was laughing hysterically with the audience. Stefanie was watching her as if she had gone mad. "David took your home?" She swallowed. Lucinda stopped as she looked at her. "What, you think that I am lying or something?" She frowned. "No, that's what I mean, what I am trying to say is that he never said anything about this," Stefanie said. She was trying her best to show Lucinda that she wasn't trying to be offensive. Lucinda crossed her legs as she looked at Stefanie, her eyes piercing through her soul. "You think David Wyatt is a saint, don't you?" She asked. "What?" "You think he is a saint, I mean, that's ho

    After watching the CCTV footage in the cafe, Rosie and Tommy left again. Tommy drove while Rosie sat beside him, deep in thought. "So what do you think happened here?" He asked. "And where did she go?" "We saw her break the black card after she made the withdrawal, she could be anywhere at this point." Rosie sighed. Tommy glanced at her, but he kept on driving. "If the black card is only given out by David Wyatt, maybe there should be ways to find out how much she withdrew, maybe it wouldn't give us an idea of what she wanted to use the money for." "Withdrawals made with the cards can be tracked, that's why they were specially made. For untraceable transactions." She said, Tommy faced the road as he kept going, it seemed like there was so much on her mind. "Hey." He said to her, "Don't worry we will find her." "I don't know, Tommy, I have a very bad feeling about this." She confessed. He saw how worried she was, so he took her hand and gently squeezed it gently. Firstly he

    The cameras showed Stefanie leaving, but no one saw her walk out. She wasn't dragged out, she went out of the building without anyone forcing her. That fueled the possibility of her actually running away, which made David even more angry. He was so disturbed that Rosie took it upon herself to dig even more into the situation. She spent the night at the office alone, reviewing the CCTV videos. A coffee to keep her eyes open and her brain alert, she kept watching the videos again and again. She noticed that Stefanie came out holding her phone very close to her chest like she didn't want anyone to take it from her. "Strange…" Rosie got closer to the screen of the computer. Stefanie was looking around too like she wanted to make sure that no one was looking at her. She finally got out of the building and into a taxi, the taxi didn't have a plate number and the driver wasn't seen. "Son of a bitch…" she muttered. She heard a knock on her door and her ears stood up like those of a

    It was like a joke, she was there for one second and she was gone for the next. It looked like a joke, everyone went from wanting to kill David to looking for Stefanie, it was like she disappeared into thin air. Nothing was coming forth, not even after they looked at all the cameras and found nothing, it was a worrisome situation. After she had been missing for twenty-four hours, the police were invited. It was a sight to see, everyone stopped when the chief of the police came to see David personally. He walked into the building with his guards and they marched to David's office. David was waiting, his hands behind his back and a very worried look on his face. "Mister Wyatt? I am the chief of police, Frederick Lawson, I will be handling your case." "Hello, thank you for being here. Please let's talk in my office." David led him in and the door was shut tight. It was just David, the Chief, and Rosie, no one else was there. The chief took off his large hat and placed it on h

    Even David didn't realize that his mother was going to be there, given that he didn't invite her to the "party." He knew where to look, Rosie was looking as guilty as a pickpocket caught in the act. "You call my mum!" He looked at her. "Rosie, is this you having a death wish?!" His mother rolled her eyes as she placed a defensive hand on Rosie's shoulder. "Imagine what would have gone wrong if she didn't." His mother said. "Maybe you should be thankful to her." She looked around at all those pointing guns at her son, but her face froze immediately. "Antonio." She called. Antonio dropped his gun even further as he slapped his face. "Don't tell me that Alexa is his mum!" Now this was David's turn to be confused. The Grand Master was looking at them with a smile on her face. She didn't really come here to save anyone, she didn't care that much, she only thought it would be fun to watch. "Thanks for calling me, Rosie," Alexa said. She took a step forward, she examined the situ

    Finally, almost at midnight, Lilian and Antonio arrived at the office. There were no extravagant billboards, no sign to show that it was David's place, everything was turned down. Lilian texted David very quickly to make sure that he knew they were there. Antonio got out of the car, he couldn't stop looking at the huge building. "Wow, this is so beautiful." He said. "Whose place is this?" "I didn't research that, but Dominic Ford's son will be here, there is supposed to be a dinner party." She said, "Oh, I see." He said. "We somehow were able to get seats." "Nothing better than having front seats to watch that fucker die." He muttered. Lilian smiled as they walked into the building. David planned this very well, there were people there to meet them and they were led up to the first floor, then the terrace. Antonio stopped when the beautiful scene met his eyes. The beautiful lights, the beautiful decorations, the nice, huge table, he was blown away by it immediately. "Wow,

    Rosie's eyes almost popped out of her socket when David told her about the new development. "Wait, please, wait a minute." She held up her hand. "Are you trying to tell me that you, willingly, invited her Uncle– who wants to kill you? – to come to see you kill yourself?!" "Exactly, that's just about it." He nodded. She puffed out her mouth and held her hands behind her neck. "David, I mean this in the most respectful way, what the fuck?!" "It's high time I get this settled," David said. "I mean, how long am I going to keep playing this game with him?" "How do you intend to kill yourself?!" She asked. "That man may be retired, but he is still very dangerous.""We are all dangerous people, aren't we?" He asked. "Maybe, just maybe, I will be able to have a civil conversation with him, but if not, I will die." "You can't die!" She rebuked him with horror in his eyes. "You are the owner of a trillion-dollar business empire, you can't die!" David looked at the pen in his hand. Black

    It looked like it took just a twinkle of an eye and David was on the plane with Stefanie. He couldn't leave her alone in the town, she looked sick and he didn't trust her uncle. As they sat in the plane, they were flying through the night. They were sitting a few seats from each other and no, it was not because they got into some kind of argument. It was because she was dozing off and David laid her on the chair to give her as much space as she needed. She never really slept off, her eyes were half shut, and she was looking at David through the half-shut lids. He looked worried, the way he looked out of the window, even though it was nothing but darkness out there. She felt her heart worry for him, whatever was in his head right now that was making him worry so much. She knew how much he cared for Gary, the man was like his father – but David wasn't going to be caught saying that. She shut her eyes again and said a small prayer to God. For David's sake, let Gary be okay. She
