His Redemption Really!
"You didn't show up to work? " Chris asked as he bumped into Liana as she made her way to see her uncle. "That's my business, not yours" she barked. "Yes it's none of my business but be sure you will receive a combination from the White Empire remember you signed a document so bet you didn't read what you were signing right? " he asked laughing as he remembered her husband did the same thing seems they were meant for each other cause they all were so dumb all the time. "I did read it, and how did you know about the contract? Wait don't tell me you are the one who orchestrated the whole thing? " she said as she looked at him with disgust. "I only saved you from what was to come if he had taken the matter to court, he is influential and there's nothing you can do about it and you know about this don't you? "Chris said. He slowly walked to her engulfing her as she hit the wall with her back. "What are you doing? " she asked as she couldn't help but love his cologne. "Coming clo
His Redemption A war!
As Liana waltzed her way to her uncle's office all she could think about was getting what she rightfully deserved. Uncle Robert was always charming to her when her parents were alive but after their death, he just did a 360 on her and gave conditions for what he could and couldn't do for her. She was a wild child and he knew the only way he could calm her down was to presumably give her limits to credit card usage and what she could and could not do whilst under his care. Liana was fed up with such rules and decided to go through the path she chose to follow. His daughter enjoyed the privilege she deserved and as she entered her uncle's office and caught sight of Chris something deep within her dropped. She didn't like the fact that he knew her uncle talked less about having a business conglomerate with him and the company she deserved. "Hi uncle," she said going towards him to hug him. "Hi, Liana, you haven't changed a bit," he said as he held her hand and then turned towards

When I confronted him, things turned violent." she explained. "OMG for how long? That's awful, Liana. I can't believe he would do that. Are you okay?" she asked checking her friend out to find any bruises. "Physically, I'll heal, but emotionally, I'm shattered. I never thought he could hurt me like that.

A sudden knock on the door and Richard was not expecting anyone as for Liana she had gone out to meet with her lawyer. "Who there? " he asked as he looked around and saw the maids had been busy with something. "Police" the voice answered. Opening the door all he could think of was why the police were at his door and why they needed to see him. "How may I help you? " he asked as he locked the door behind him. "We got a tip stating you have been delivering illegal substances to a mafia group downtown and we have a warrant to search your apartment" the officer explained. "What illegal substances?

The Legacy unveiled
Chris stood motionless, his eyes locked onto the man in the doorway—Reddick. "Chris," Reddick's voice was calm, almost soothing. "I've been expecting you."Chris clenched his fists, his gaze flickering between Reddick and his mother, still bound and blindfolded. "Let her go," he demanded, his voice steady despite the turmoil within.Reddick stepped further into the room, the light revealing a face marked by time and secrets. "All in due time," he said. "But first, we need to talk."Chris took a step forward, his instincts screaming at him to act, to fight, to protect. But something in Reddick's demeanor gave him pause—a familiarity, a connection he couldn't quite place."Who are you?" Chris asked, his voice laced with suspicion.Reddick sighed, his eyes reflecting a mixture of sorrow and resolve. "I'm someone who knew your father well. Someone who was once like a brother to him."Chris's heart pounded. "You're lying. My father never mentioned you.""Because he wanted to protect you,"
The burden of truth
Chris stared at the photo for a long moment, the words seared into his mind. “The place you buried the truth.” He felt a rush of memories, places and moments from his past, all connected to his family’s legacy. He gripped the photo tightly, his knuckles white.“Chris, we have to move quickly,” Gabriel said, his voice steady but laced with urgency. “We don’t know how much time we have. If they’ve taken her—”“I know.” Chris’s voice was tight. “I’m not stupid. But what the hell is going on? What do they want from me? From her?”Gabriel exhaled slowly, his gaze shifting toward the hallway as if he were hearing something in the distance, something only he could sense. “I wish I could tell you everything, Chris. But there are things your father kept from both of us. Things that were buried so deep, even I didn’t know they existed until recently.”Chris’s frustration boiled over. “I’m not interested in the past. My mother is gone, and I need to find her. Now.”Gabriel placed a hand on Chris
Shadows of the Past
Chris rushed down the stairs of his office building, every step a drumbeat of anxiety. He hadn’t known his father had a brother—at least, not one still alive. The thought of someone carrying the same bloodline yet remaining hidden all this time left him uneasy. Questions bloomed faster than answers: Where had this man been? Why now? What did he want?At the reception desk, Linda stood frozen behind the counter, her usually calm expression twisted into something between fear and awe.“He’s waiting in the conference room,” she said quietly. “He… he knew your full name before I said anything.”Chris’s brow furrowed. He pushed through the door, heart pounding.There, seated in one of the high-backed leather chairs, was a man in his sixties. Salt-and-pepper hair slicked back, a tailored charcoal-gray suit, and eyes—sharp, calculating, and strangely familiar. He stood when Chris entered.“Cristóbal Alejandro Kingston,” the man said smoothly. “You look just like him.”Chris didn’t respond im
Whispers in the Silence
Chris lay sprawled across his bed, face turned toward the ceiling as the fan above spun in slow, rhythmic circles. He could still feel his mother’s arms wrapped around him—a rare gesture of tenderness that brought back memories of better times, simpler days when the weight of a legacy wasn’t strapped to his shoulders. But now, the burden was his to carry, and he wasn’t sure if he was ready for the miles ahead.His phone buzzed beside him.He ignored it.Another buzz. This time, a call.“Arturo,” he muttered, eyes closed. “He’s probably still trying to drag me out.”The buzzing stopped, only to resume seconds later. Chris groaned and finally answered.“What?”“Boss,” Arturo's voice crackled through the speaker, unusually cautious, “you might want to come down to the office. Now.”Chris rubbed his temple. “Arturo, I’m exhausted. I told you I’m taking a day.”“I know, but it’s not about business,” Arturo continued. “Someone’s been snooping around. And I think they broke into your private

They had no other family since his grandfather when young had run away from home. And had decided to make a name for himself and that was a story Chris wouldn't want to go back to Together, they meticulously chose the venue, selected the readings, and decided on the music that honoured his grandfather's life.His grandfather was somewhat a Gillian but living with him at this point made it great to know that he was loveable, the only thing that had curbed that great heart of his was a story Chris would have loved to hear but his grandfather had just died and that story would be farfetched from him. As they gathered to bid farewell to their beloved patriarch, Chris couldn't shake off the concern he felt for his mother,
Pains!
Liana stormed into Chris's office, her heels clicking loudly against the polished floor. Her eyes blazed with determination as she faced him across his desk. "Chris, I've had enough of your games. You know exactly what I'm capable of, and if you don't start cooperating, you'll regret it."Chris leaned back in his chair, unfazed by her theatrics. "Oh, Liana, always so dramatic. What is it this time? Another empty threat?""You think I'm bluffing?" Liana shot back, her voice rising. "I have evidence that could ruin you, Chris. You'd be wise to listen to me."Chris raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing at the corner of his lips. "Is that so? And what evidence might that be, pray to tell?"Liana faltered, her confidence wavering for a moment. She hadn't expected Chris to challenge her so directly. "Well, it's... it's..." She trailed off, searching for the right words, but they eluded her.Chris chuckled softly, shaking his head. "Save your breath, Liana. I'm not intimidated by empty threats
Emotions!
"I'd like to think this news you've brought here sir should be used diligently as we have to mess up even with the whites!" Arturo said as Chris explained what had just happened. "I know she has some sort of personal grieve with Richard's father and somehow that's why she is focused on the son before getting to his father, somehow hurting the kid gets to his father, Richard is the only son and deserves to be... You know worthy of their family name not bring it down, it's just hurtful that his father has to witness this wholeheartedly not knowing what to do""Do I feel a flex of pity in your vocals? " Arturo questioned. "That's too much, I can't let their problems bother me that much, I'll have to diligently mess with them so bad they won't be able to look me in the face when everything is done" he smacked. "But you are human sir, these things ought to chike you a bit from time to time, it somehow seems you've forgotten about your dad as you have focused so much on things tha

You practically removed me from the company and almost all my friends now know I don't own anything but you" White said to his wife. "Don't you think that's the best punishment for you right now, do you want me to tell the world of the charade and lowlife family you came from?
