Kendrick are you here?” Kendrick nodded and moved aside. “What's wrong with your son?”“He'll be fine, just a little stressed.” Mr. Strandsen exhaled loudly.

I'm lost.”“It's men talk. Brace up.” He mimicked himself and she smiled.“Okay if you say so.” Isabella checked her phone, he had double texted

A kiss? I don't feel it's something good.”“So what's something good? Considering that we're going for a party and it may as well be my last day.” Sarah said with mixed emotions of frustration and anger.“Can we not talk about this?” Peter demanded.“Ok dear, what do we rather talk about that will be intriguing and fast paced through out this dull journey.” Sarah snapped quickly.“Nothing.

“Boss, we have bad news and good news.” Raul said with his face down.“Good news first! I'm in a good mood.” Derek said smiling.“The goodnews is that if you give the order now we can pursue and recollect our goods and take even more because we know who's behind the attack.” Mario said in a serious tone.“And the bad news?” Derek asked shaking visibly.“We lost Don Carlos and Tiga to death and a host of other workers to the brawl. We also lost all the goods on transit, but we can-”“Fuck! Fuck! Fuck, fuck, fuck!” Derek fell to the ground, he couldn't control himself. He smashed his phone on the glassware and it shattered and he had everyone's attention.“Boss we need to go!” Raul managed to say loudly.“I'm finished, this was my last resort! Where do I run to?” Derek said, his head in between his thighs.“Boss we have to go, the cameras are getting too much.” Mario said, helping him out of the curious pre

Derek came out of his car but was still ashamed for his outburst. Mario followed him from behind while Raul was his forerunner, paving the way. As he entered the hall, it was as if everything paused.

Why such a violent expression of emotions?” Mr. Windsors asked.“Are you alright?” Margret asked.“Mom, dad, leave him be. He won't be able to say a word now probably from the shock. He'll be fine, right babe?” Maya asked, rubbing him softly.He nodded while Mario stood aside, taking a seat behind him. Raul did the same thing, everyone on high alert. Victoria had a hunch, she could guess what was wrong. She asked no questions and pretended to be so engrossed in her food.

Kendrick thought Isabella was about to stand him up. He put a call across and it went to voicemail. He decided to wait for a minute but it seemed like it was taking longer so midway through his elastic patience for a minute, he dialed the number again. When she didn't pick up he showed his frustration by hitting the wall and turning to leave and behold, look what he saw!“How long have you been standing there, watching me angry?” Kendrick asked, unaware of what to feel.“You looked so angry, now I think you feel stupid.” Isabella said confidently, still.maintaining where she stood.He walked closer, there was a considerable distance then he stopped. “That doesn't answer my question. It seems you enjoy watching me in pain. All I did was concur with your sister's opinion which I have apologized for and shown that I regret.” “I've been here for over a minute, you've just not been aware of your environment.”He clapped thrice then stopped, “ good remark!

Derek rose from the white silk divan he was sitting on and clapped as he waved slowly, turning 360 degrees for everyone to have a view of him.“Our mysterious billionaire will address is later, let's dig in and keep ourselves busy.” James said as they sat down.“Where is he?” Davin asked sternly.James motioned to Sarah and she went over to where Peter sat. “He wants to see you.”Peter was still chewing gently the rice he just threw into his mouth.

“We know your family and we hope you don't fall victims to poor people who pretend to be rich. Our son here is our only child and we hope to give him out to the best bride, that includes her status.” Mrs. Strandsen said.Kendrick eyed her with so much regret, he had warned her and told her not to do this but she vehemently refused.“Mom, she's from a reputable family and she'll make a good bride.” Kendrick defended.“Your mom is just trying to ensure she's the right woman for you. My mom did the same.” Mr. Strandsen said, refilling his glass with wine.“I understand, as a parent, one has to look out for his child especially when he's an heir to a lot of wealth like in this case. But there should be no misconception regarding my family's reputation as we deal and fraternize with only those in our status.” Isabella said courteously.“Well said, my daughter.

They sat at the waiting room quietly while Maya had excused herself to the cafeteria.

“Davin! Helen!” she called out, her voice loud enough to attract the attention of other visitors. “I heard about Mom. Is she okay?”“Maya,” Davin said, keeping his voice steady. “What are you doing here?”“I came to support my family,” she said, tilting her head slightly. “Isn’t that what family does?”Helen shot Davin a look, and he felt the tension rise between them. “Support?” he echoed, doubt lacing his tone. “Or to make sure everyone knows you’re here?”Maya laughed, a sound that felt more like a challenge. “Oh, come on. I know you’re not happy about my wedding plans, but can we not turn this into a competition? This is about Mom.”“Right. Let’s just focus on her,” Davin said, frustration boiling beneath the surface. “But don’t pretend that you aren’t looking for attention.”“Seriously, Davin?” Maya shot back, her voice sharp. “You think I’m here for a show? I’m worried about her too, you know.”“You have a funny way of showing it,” he replied, crossing his arms.“Enough,” Helen

Davin sat at the dinning table, a half-finished cup of coffee in front of him, flipping through a stack of paperwork from work. The morning sun streamed through the window, casting a warm glow, but a sense of unease gnawed at him. Just then, Helen burst into the room, her face a mix of urgency and concern.“Davin! We need to talk,” she said, her voice tight with anxiety.He looked up, instantly alert. “What’s wrong?”“It’s your mother. I just got a call from the hospital. She’s seriously ill,” Helen said, her words tumbling out in a rush. “They’re flying her out of Arctic City for specialized medication.”Davin’s heart sank. “What do you mean, ‘seriously ill’? What’s going on?”“They didn’t give me all the details, just that she needs immediate treatment,” Helen replied, her eyes brimming with concern. “They’re arranging a private jet to get her to the mainland for the best care.”“Why didn’t they call me?” he asked, rising from the table, the papers scattering as he stood.“I think t

As they finished their ice cream, Mia let out a satisfied sigh, her face smeared with chocolate and mint. Davin couldn’t help but chuckle at her delight. “You’ve got a bit of ice cream on your nose, kiddo,” he teased, reaching over with a napkin.Mia giggled, swiping at her nose with the back of her hand. “It’s part of the experience!” she declared with the seriousness of a gourmet critic. “Then I suppose I’m not allowed to clean you up,” Davin replied, exchanging a knowing glance with Helen. The sun shone brightly overhead, and the market was a riot of colors and sounds. Families milled about, vendors called out their wares, and the laughter of children filled the air. The moment felt suspended in time, a perfect snapshot of happiness that Davin wished could last forever.“Let’s take a stroll down by the river after this,” Helen suggested, finishing her ice cream. “I heard they have a small arts and crafts fair set up along the walkway.”“Great idea! Mia, what do you think?” Davin

I can’t believe how much fun we had.”“I know! We need to do that more often,” he said, taking another sip of coffee. “It was nice to reconnect.”Helen smiled, the warmth of his words wrapping around her like a cozy blanket. “So, what’s on the agenda for today?

After the previous evening’s eventful drive and the satisfying dinner with his family, he was eager to embrace the day and make it more eventful. He glanced over at Helen, still peacefully asleep, and smiled at how lucky she was.Once dressed, Davin tiptoed into the kitchen to make coffee.

The evening air was cool as Davin drove home, the satisfaction of the day’s meeting still buzzing in his mind. He replayed the conversation with the senior management team, feeling a cautious optimism about the potential for change. But just as he was beginning to relax, a sudden jolt from behind interrupted his thoughts.He slammed on the brakes, heart racing. The sound of crunching metal filled the air. Davin glanced in the rearview mirror, realizing he had been rear-ended. He exited the car, already feeling the adrenaline coursing through him.As he stepped out, his heart sank when he recognized the sleek red Ferrari that had collided with his SUV.

Sunlight streamed through the window, illuminating the room and hinting at a promising day.As he made his way to the kitchen, the sounds of breakfast filled the air. Helen was already bustling about, preparing pancakes while Mia sat at the table, her homework spread out in front of her.“Good morning, family!” Davin announced, pouring himself a cup of coffee.“Good morning, Dad!” Mia replied, her head buried in her math workbook. “Can you help me with this problem?

He loved these moments of connection, the way teaching Mia helped him solidify his own understanding of concepts. After
