"It's about time!" Neo mumbled amidst the excruciating pain, he tried to get on his feet while keeping an eye on Tristan who's legs as bleeding profusely from the gunshot.The man who has shot the gun approached Tristan, kicked the young trillionaire on the face, and muttered,"idioit. You think you can die huh? that you were are so invincible? Well you may have survived other bullets, but not mine." "Are you okay sir?" He turned to Neo after kicking Tristan once again."Do I look fine to you?" Neo frowned, showing off the cuts and bruises he sustained."You are late, you ought to be here thirty minutes ago." "I'm sorry sir," The man apologized, whilst helping Neo get to his feet,"I was delayed at the headquarters, they insisted on knowing my reasons for taking on of these," He explained and showed Neo the gun and bullet he had used on Tristan."At this rate, his leg is long gone, I want to see how this fool Will run away now," He laughed and kicked Tristan again on the side, knock
"Hey man, are you alright?" Harry's voice resounds over again in Tristan's ears as he has just woken up after being knocked out for nearly five hours."Good," Tristan replied trying to sit up on the hospital bed, but Tristan stopped him,"No, man, relax, don't stand up yet. I saw the news, why didn't you tell me that something was going on? I would have called the cops earlier and could have even gotten there by myself." Harry grumbled."Don't even say anything," He uttered,"What matters is that you are okay, and not dead, I'll be back in a few minutes, the doctor needs to speak to me .""Alright man," Tristan uttered with his voice barely audible. As soon as Harry walked out of the room, the system lit up with a notification./Final task complete!/ /As a gift from the system to you.../Healing process begins....10%/50%//70%//100%//Healing complete//Task complete!// Host is currently a quintillionaire//Congratulations!/"Thanks, system, for the healing too... the nurse will
"Do you think she will like it?" Tristan asked as he stared at the hall that had been decorated for more than a million dollars."It looks great, don't worry, she will like it." His mother tapped his back with a smile. "By the way, when does she get back from the hospital?" she asked."5 pm, " Tristan answered, and suddenly noticed that he wasn't seeing his cake."Where is the cake?" He asked."Her cake?" his mom asked and he nodded,"I don't know, but it can't be here by now, it'll melt before she even shows up, it's just noon. I want to go get my nails done, and it's going to be a grad party." His mother excitedly walked out of the hall."I'll go with Mom, don't worry brother, she will love it," Ariana hugged him before running out of the hall after her mother, she also wanted to get her nails done.Tristan drew a chair from the set-up, and sat down with a sigh, he couldn't believe that it had been four years since the system left, and it had been four years since he met Claudia.
“Sleeping?” Claudia smiled as she walked into the room and gazed upon her handsome man on the bed. Her entrance had disturbed his sleep but he didn’t mind.“Welcome back,” Tristan greeted her while running his finger over his sleepy eyes. He quickly stole a glance at the clock to ensure that he hadn’t slept past the time he wanted to, unfortunately he had. But he didn't panic so much, Claudia had gotten back an hour earlier, so all he needed to was to get ready and urge her to get dressed too."How was work?" He inquired, trying to keep the conversation simple because he had told her nothing about the party."Stressful, as always," She sat next to him on the bed, she placed a kiss on his cheek and stood up immediately, she wanted to take shower before anything."I told you not to go to work on your birthdays, it is not that big of a deal, if your boss as much as threatens to fire you, I'll buy the hospital and make you the owner." Tristan flaunted with a smirk as he threw his head b
"Holy shit," Claudia exclaimed as she walked into the venue accompanied by Tristan, her hands over he mouth. Not only was it a pleasant surprise but it was in that she never anticipated.As soon as her eyes met her mothers, Claudia's heart melted, she quickly turned to Tristan and asked,"How did you get all of them here?" "I'll never tell," Tristan smirked before being enveloped in a warm hug from her, "Thank you so much," she uttered with tears in the corner of her eyes, after which she vanished into the crowd and began greeting everyone she met.Firstly, her mother. It has been nearly two years since they last met in person, her father was also present and she couldn't use words to express how grateful she was to them for showing up.Next was Tristan's mother, even since she moved to LA with Tristan, she barely saw the lady, and she was more than happy to meet her again. Ariana on the other hand was so grown and almost unrecognisable, that she hugged the young woman before procee
"I can't believe you did this," Claudia uttered whilst staring at the ring on her finger. She was lying in bed next to Tristan who was tired and would be going to bed soon."At least you said yes," Tristan uttered, stroking her hair gently because she was lying in his arms."Imagine how much I would have cried tonight if you had said no," He added jokingly.Claudia faked a frown and turned to face him,"Why would I say no?" She asked him,"It's been four years Tristan, and I always felt like I'd know when you would propose, but you took me completely by surprise. My friend and coursemates have been texting me nonstop, I can't even respond to all of them today, I'm too tired.""Look," Tristan pointed at the clock hanging on the wall,"it's past midnight, 1:44 am. You can reply to them tomorrow, it's not that urgent, I'm so tired too.""Of course, I won't reply to them tonight, they should be asleep too, it's just me who is too excited to sleep, you look tired and you should sleep, don'
One of the most expensive wedding venues in LA, and that was only the first stage of the wedding. He intended for a three days wedding, one at an indoor venue, which is where the current reception is taking place after the church. Another at an outdoor venue most likely close to a beach, and for the grand finally under the night sy on the rooftop of a hotel. As for what they will be doing at the venue all those days, that won't be a problem.Everyone is set, even up to the source of entertainment. The number of eminent personalities present at Tristan's wedding was unbelievable. What surprised people mostly was when the president showed up. Most people believe that after his son had been put behind bars for attempted murder that it might alter his relation with Tristan, but nothing changed.The first day was the main event, the reception took off by 4pm and lasted until 8pm, the food alone could anyone salivating even though they had had their fill.The dance between mother and son w
"You wore this dress on purpose tonight, didn't you?" Tristan asked, gazing lovingly at his wife who sat on the bed where he lay. Her red silky short dress was alluring and no doubt tempting to whatever eyes see it, her red painted nails added to the mix as though she has untold agendas. She turned to him and replied,"What do you think, what's if I did?" She asked and Tristan could already tell what it was that his wife demanded.She had been busy all week, and this weekend she got a break, she had clung to him as though there was a piece of honey left that she had yet to taste."I think you did," Tristan replied and sat up, he leaned forward to kiss he on the lip but Clauide pushed him backwards. "No no," she said,"Lay back down, Tristan," she added, her voice was both soft and demanding, and what more could he do than listen to the woman who seemed to know what she wanted? He had been at home all day, rested enough and was always ready for her.Claudia climbed unto the bed and
