The next morning, the entire household was already prepared to leave the house by seven o'clock a.m, even though the detective had told Tristan to wait for him, Tristan chose to be stubborn and did the opposite.

The drive back to the countryside took three and a half hours, and his mother directed them to the cafe where his father had eaten last before he began to complain of stomach upset.

"So, what are you going to do now?" Claudia asked him while they were parked outside in front of the cafe.

"I am going to find who poisoned my father, what does it look like I am doing?" He asked.

Claudia sighed and retorted,

"That's not what I meant, how exactly do you plan to do that? you can't just go inside and see the culprit waiting for you to come and get him."

" True," Harry chipped in,

" I honestly thought that you would wait for the detective himself to do this, that would have been the best option."

Tristan stepped out of the car while they were still speaking and said to his mother,

Lewis insulated and raised his hand to retaliate but Tristan caught his hand mid-air and held onto his wrist so tightly with his system-given strength.He never thought it would work out so well especially since the system had shut down for twenty-four hours, but it worked so well that Lewis was wincing in so much pain unable to say a word.Some customers who had stoo

    Getting into the car Tristan fumed with anger and he couldn't tell why, was it the manager who annoyed him? Or was it the detective who was not taking the situation as seriously as he was? He couldn't just understand."Are you alright?" Claudia asked, holding unto his shoulder like a child."I'm just upset, I don't know why but I just am," he answered."How did it go with the manager?" She asked as he sighed before retorting."Not so well, he's such an idiot, but like you said, I'll let the detective do their thing, there is just one more place that I need to get to, before returning home for my father's" He announced."Where?" Harry asked."That hospital." He answered and Claudia immediately understood the reason why he wanted to go there. He had unfinished business with the manager and a nurse who kept annoying him."Tristan, do you think it's necessary?" She asked him."What do you think I want to do? I want to check on those patients of course, and know how well they are doing and

    "How?" Marie exclaimed in shock, she was aware, however, that others were trying to rest in the ward so she made sure not to shout too loudly."How what?" Tristan asked her with a raised brow.Marie couldn't utter a word, she was left speechless as she stared at her senior from Middle school. She remembered how he was one of the most wretched students, his clothes were worn out, and his shoes were pleading to be thrown into the garbage.She remembered how he was a constant victim of the bullies and was made to do a lot of dirty jobs on behalf of others because of his status, so as she stared at him, she couldn't believe her eyes."What brought you back to this place? I thought you left the country to New York, you said you were relocating." Tristan asked, taking his seat on the bed next to her. Tristan has known Marie only because she was the biggest school diva, her bad attitude caused a lot of students to dislike her, but her parent's financial status kept them closer.She enjoyed

    This man was none other than the Manager, he ran out with an expression of worry with his eyes pleading for mercy."Please sir, don't do this to me I beg you please." He pleaded knocking gently on the window of the car."What is going on?" Claudia asked."Nothing much my dear, just showing off as usual." Tristan scoffed with a frown on his face as he looked out the window, staring at the manager in disdain."Max start the car, I need to see Pa Kaim before heading to the airport, I don't have all day to spend here listening to all his shenanigans," he instructed Max started the engine, but as he did, the manager's voice only became louder."Please sir, I do not want to lose my job, I beg you, Mr Coleman, we can sort this out, please! Mr Coleman!" he called out but Max was already turning the car around to leave the hospital arena."Mr Coleman please!" He continued to call out running after the car as it was leaving, but it seems Tristan had made up his mind not pity because the car did

    They had just arrived home when Tristan received an unexpected phone call from Jennes, he stared at the screen and felt disturbed. The last thing he wanted was another lady flirting with him but at the same time, he did not want to conclude that it was the reason so he picked up the call."Hello Jennes," he placed the phone on his ear as he walked slowly into the living room."Good day sir, " she greeted him from the other side of the phone."How are you?" He asked and she retorted briskly,"I'm fine sir. I was calling to let you know that I am in the country and just wanted to know where I should come from the funeral sir, if it's not too much to ask."Tristan was dump-founded, he couldn't believe that Jennes left Florida just to attend his father's funeral, That was thoughtful of her but she hoped something was not amiss, or that she had no future expectations."Uhm... that was very nice of you Jennes, thank you so much for thinking about that...

    /Church premises/Outside the church at the parking lot, Laura sat inside the car and waited for Tristan and his family to go into the church first. She had managed to successfully follow them from the house to the church unnoticed.After they had gone, she stepped down from the car and looked towards the entrance, the number of security guards present there was enough to send a shiver down her spine. The cars that were parked outside were just breathtaking because they belonged to not normal but first-class citizens including CEOs and ministers.She took a deep breath and hoped she would be allowed inside, but before she could take a step forward an unfamiliar voice called out to her."Excuse me miss?" A young lady dressed in a black but beautiful gown with long and dark silky hair said to her."Hello?" Laura responded with a smile and an expression of "How may I help you?""My name is Jennes, and uhm... I just wanted to confirm whether or not I am in the right place. Please is this

She tried to convince herself that it was Tristan's sister, but the chemistry between them caused her to think otherwise and her assumption was verified after the mass was over when Claudia hugged Tristan passionately and wiped the tears off the corner of his eyes.Now outside, Jennes forced her way through the crowd of eminent personalities hoping to catch up with Tristan who was far ahead.

    "I just got the baby to sleep, damm," Claudia sighed and sat next to her husband on the couch."I guess the maids can't do everything, " she added."You gave birth to quite the town crier," Tristan chuckled and Claudia laughed,"We, gave birth... not just me, by the way, I found this in one of those old briefcases that you no longer use," she held up a string covered in glitter and Tristan's jaws dropped in shock."I can't believe it," He took it from her, staring at it with a mix of so many emotions. He remembered that string from five years ago when the system had asked him to play the philanthropist role and visit that orphanage. "She'd be a grown-up by now," He uttered and Claudia raised a brow wondering who he was talking about."I can't remember her name, but it was a young girl, about 5 years old I met her at an orphanage once, she was so happy to make me a bracelet, and I gave her my wristwatch in return, I can't believe I still have it after all these years.""Awn," Claudia

    Getting rid of the barrier that stopped her hand from touching his skin, Claudia did the needful, and anyone might think it's massaging but that would be wrong, she played with it, constantly looking into Tristan's eyes to ensure that he responded accordingly to her punishment. With every trace of fluid, she could tell that he was at the breaking point, but she wanted him to say it, believing that a man who is thirsty enough wouldn't hesitate to beg for water to drink."Please," He finally gave in, he no longer saw the need to keep his thought to himself. He lost his mind a long time ago but has struggled to keep it together. That was all she needed to hear, the pleading voice of her man, his surrender to her, his submission and notng more, as much as she tortured him, Claudia tortured herself equally, so she was more than happy to begin the process.Letting Tristan get rid of her clothes, they both indulge in doing the needful, as Claudia took the lead like she wanted, but Tristan

    "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

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

    "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'

    "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.

    “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."

    "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.
