A week threw by with Daniel going back to his life and concentrating on his companies. He had a lot of pending projects that he needed to start and finish.He was aware that there were a lot of questions about the partner or who took his sperm, but life had to go on. He and Rexa needed to start doing what they were intended to do and changing a lot of lives. Though Josh's issue kept nagging him. The man was yet to decide whether to walk or save his brother. Cathy also went back to her old life; clearing her death certificate was not that difficult, though the country was shocked by the turn of events. She took the initiative and moved into Daniel's mansion, even though her mother was against it. But she felt Daniel was too slow and that he was going to lose his concentration on their relationship and instead focus on the company.Carol did not mind, Cathy was good company even though her stay meant constant visits from Rachel who was too annoying and violent for her liking.As for
Daniel Lane stared long and hard at his reflection in the mirror. He'd spent a week putting his outfit together. He needed to look the part and dress the part if he wanted to cement a job with the Biopharm Tech group of companies after graduation.He was still in university, a bioengineering student while working part-time. He was determined to secure a permanent job.He wasn't a suit type of guy, but more of a casual or work suit type of guy. However, today was different and a suit was required. He had a big presentation for a new blood pressure prototype device, and to top it off, it was also his birthday. He wore his late father's old brown suit, which contributed to his lack of confidence. It appeared outdated, out of style, and saggy.He had no option; the suit was his Sunday best. Clothes were the last basic necessity he purchased with his limited money. He had to rely on his late father's clothes for the most part. The clothes didn't fit perfectly, but wearing them to work made
In the meantime, Shelly, Daniel's girlfriend, walked excitedly into the building, her blond hair neatly tucked behind her. She was dressed in her favorite pink lace dress, which accentuated her blue eyes.She intended to surprise Daniel since it was his birthday today. "Hello, love," she said, but stopped when she saw Daniel walking her way, carrying a box and being shooed by two security guards."What's going on?" She inquired, her eyebrows shooting up at the endpoint.Astonished to see Shelly in the building, Daniel bit his lip and asked, "What are you doing here?"But before Shelly could respond, one of the guards gave Daniel a hard push. ""Piss off!"Daniel hadn’t expected this and lost the grip of the box in his hands as its contents scattered across the floor. His head felt like it was about to explode at any moment."Fuck you off!" He yelled at the guard furiously, but the guard had already turned his back on him and walked away with his colleague."Daniel! Hold on! What’s wro
With a racing heart, Daniel scrolled through the message photos of his ex-girlfriend Shelly and one of the popular boys on campus, Micheal Meyers kissing. The photos popped up one after another.Daniel didn’t know much about Micheal except that he was one of those rich guys who roam around the campus in groups now and then in their expensive running cars. It looked like Shelly had successfully gotten taken away by the cars. And from the look on Micheal and Shelly’s faces, they appeared to be enjoying each other's company. Two people in love displaying the love they had for each other. Congratulatory messages from the other students began flooding the chats. They all kept tagging Shelly, who kept responding with loving emojis. He took a long, hard look at her reaction. He couldn't believe that was the same girl he spent the previous night pouring his heart into. The same girl that reciprocated his love. Craig noticed his long tense face as he looked over at his bed. He could tell h
Morning came and brought a reminder of the hell he had experienced the day before. Daniel had stayed up awake the whole night while his roommates slept, he lay awake, wallowing in his misery silently, and only dozing off near dawn.Craig and Max had tried to cheer him up, and Max even sang happy birthday to him, to try and cheer him up but he hid beneath his brackets in his thoughts. Craig, who had a deeper understanding, decided to give him space and dragged Max out with him for pizza. When they returned, they found him still under his bracket and decided to leave him alone, The bracket had been his shield during the night, but with the sound of birds, he couldn’t hide forever. He had more important things in mind to worry about, his aunt’s health problem, money, and so on. Besides, he didn't want to hear Craig and Matt’s sympathy or words of encouragement, at least, not right now. Such never yielded or amounted to anything, especially when his life was wrapped around poverty May
He originally expected to receive funding and support from BioPharm if his PB prototype had been approved, but the presentation turned out to be a nightmare. He had thought of looking for help from his friends’ family yesterday when he was lying in bed but dropped that idea within seconds. He knew Craig’s family sold jewelry as well as herbs, and Matt’s family focused on mines in the country. None of their family seemed to be specializing in Biomedical Engineering. So why would they fund him? Just as he was thinking hard, a knock at his door jolted him out of his reverie."Yes?""May I enter?" Carol asked merrily.He quickly packed the pieces as they were not ready for use. And, giving false hope to his aunt was the last thing on his agenda. He opened the door, and Carol walked in with a big smile on her face, hiding something behind her. "Here is my birthday boy?""My! Is that a gift for your dear nephew?" Daniel asked, sounding mischievous and excited. "Open it!" Carol beamed w
Irritated, George pushed on the trolley again, this time with great force, sending her tumbling to the ground. He was not going to put up with such arrogance from a nobody of low status.Carol landed hard, but she was not one to lie on the ground and be spat at. She attempted to stand, but the little strength she had betrayed her as her body slumped back to the ground. She coughed loudly and held her chest.George moved, not wanting her to cough on his expensive shoes. The woman was sick but defiant.She kept coughing, the push somehow triggered a cough which irritated George and made him feel uneasy, so he looked around to make sure no one was passing by. He took a piece of paper and threw it in her lap."Sell me the house, you need the money to pay for your nephew's tuition," he said.Carol coughed, her gaze fixed on the paper, then up at him."That paper contains the names of the students chosen for the scholarship for next semester," he explained. "And, if you look through it, Dan

"If you want to live, stay calm and answer her questions!" Daniel warned them.He knew he was no longer in control, and Rexa was controlling everything using her own mind.Max tried to move his aching body across the room. Everything hurt; he felt like he had been tossed by an elephant on thorny rocks.Daniel moved closer to the bed, curious to see what Rexa was earlier calling a non-living thing."Move away from him!" Angela yelled at him.But he ignored her and was meant with a greyish-blackish tone of mass. It was human from the shape of the head and body, but the skin looked like it was about to rot but paused.He gulped as if he were about to vomit; it was not smelling, but the sight was nauseating."How dare you?" The old man yelled at him."What the fuck is this?" Daniel asked, looking in Angela's direction, but she looked away."A MAN THAT REFUSED TO DIE," Rexa popped up, "AND I THINK HIS CONDITION HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH WHAT HE TOOK ON THAT SHIP," she added."Shit, I guess
"What did you just say?" Daniel asked."RODRICK IGRAM IS ALIVE, YOUR GREAT, GREAT, GREAT GRANDFATHER'S FRIEND, THE ONE THAT DIED," Rexa replied.Daniel shook his head, "That's impossible, how old was my grandfather when he first found you?" "18 YEARS OLD, SAME AGE AS RODRICK.""So that means Rodrick was born in 1807, and that would make him over 200 years old.""DANIEL, YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS; HE HAS TENS OF NEEDLES STICKING OUT OF HIS BODY, IT'S HIM; I KNOW IT'S HIM," Rexa replied.Inside the lab, Max called for backup and tried to get the magnates working, but without electricity, they were useless."She is here," his grandfather whispered."Who?""The relic, she is here," he replied with glittering eyes.Max quickly checked his camera footage and asked his men to search for Daniel, but they could not find anything."That's impossible, Daniel is nowhere near here.""She can manipulate sound or any form of matter, so do not expect to see Daniel near here," his grandfather laughed.Max
"Anyone try to touch those guns and I swear, I will blow off their heads!" He warned on top of his voice.Rachel stared at him, shocked, while Cathy and Craig held each other's hands and moved to the other corner.Daniel removed his phone and made a call, instructing someone to come and guard the house. He ended the call and looked in Rachel's direction."Please stay in this house, and I will deal with everything," he assured her."You have no right to threaten me," she finally replied. "Actually I do, or maybe you want me to snap Mateo back into reality, and believe me, he still has men outside prison who he can hire and take you out!" Daniel warned.Rachel began biting her lips as all her words disappeared from her lips. Daniel just threatened her, he threatened her in front of her children."Mom, just do what Daniel is asking you to," Cathy finally spoke."Quiet!" Rachel yelled, breathing heavily."Watch what will come out of your mouth, because I am ready to make you sleep until
When morning came and news of George Meyers' arrest was all over the news. Daniel, who had not slept because of the tunnel below Max's hospital, sat next to his aunt, who was in tears.Finally, the day she had always hoped for came after her five years in a coma, but it was worth the sleep. She held her nephew's hand with tears in her eyes."You did it," she whispered. "Your parents are looking down happily on their son."Daniel smiled at her."I will pop the wine after I get the head behind the order," he replied."Did you talk to Max?" She asked.Daniel analyzed her question, "Did you know about his real parents?" He asked."He confessed when I was in my coma," she replied. "I hope you understand he is just a victim of his family's greed.""I know we talked, though I had to kidnap him in order to make him talk," he confessed."What? Please tell me you did not hurt him." "Of course not; he is fine," Daniel assured her.Cathy, who was taking a shower, finished up and joined them."Gr
Daniel slowly took a seat, trying to process everything. His best friend was Max's half-brother. He stared long and hard at him. There was a little resemblance physically and even in the way they carried themselves with the "I do not care" attitude, though Max was a total jerk if one did not know him personally.Zain was a more free type compared to Max, who always seemed to be above others. It was only after some time that he eventually warmed up. He wondered if that was part of the plan so that he could not suspect anything.He had a lot of questions in his head and a lot of memories kept popping up, but he could not comprehend the fact that the partner was around him all this time and neither George nor Josh or Gabriel suspected anything."Are you the one that shut down power at the Jerk's hospital?" Zain asked, trying to snap him out of his thoughts."Yeah, there is a private elevator in the hospital that leads underground, right?" Daniel asked."Tell me where Kendall is, and I wi
Craig's heart began beating fast, and he was not sure how to react. The old man was sick in the head. He had held the man in high esteem, but knowing the man personally, made him want to vomit.First, he forced his niece to have sex against her will, and when that was not enough, he even went further and stole sperm from the man he drugged her with."Are we together?" Josh asked.Craig cleared his throat."Does Daniel know about this sperm?" Craig finally asked."No…," Josh replied. "This is about freeing your sister, but if you want, you can tell Daniel and ruin your chances.""This is betraying Daniel!" Craig raised his voice. "What kind of person are you?""Does Daniel know about the contract you signed with the partner?" Josh asked with a smile.Craig looked away."So what you are doing is not betraying, but what I am doing is betraying?" He asked. "If I am not correct, I would guess that you are going to allow Daniel to have a child that will be owned by the partner?" He asked.
Daniel clenched his shaking hand, realizing how deep the betrayal was. A voice deep inside of him told him to go upstairs and confront them, but another voice told him to stay calm and use his head."WE FOUND THE PARTNER, DANIEL," Rexa whispered in excitement. "THIS EXPLAINS HOW ZAIN KNEW ABOUT THE RELIC FROM CHILDHOOD," she added.Daniel closed his eyes; he was not as excited as she was. He was somehow disappointed and not impressed that it turned out to be Max's family.But he was going to give credit where it was due. They hid perfectly in plain sight and knew when to show their faces. "WHAT'S THE PLAN?" Rexa asked, eager to take Max down."Shut down the building!" Daniel replied"WHAT?" Rexa was a bit confused."Electricity, Internet, I mean everything, shut it down!" He ordered"DANIEL, THIS IS A HOSPITAL, AND PEOPLE WILL DIE," Rexa warned."That's where generators come in," he replied, his tone a bit shaky. "DANIEL, WE ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO PLAY WITH LIVES," Rexa warned.Daniel
