2024-01-15 14:52:31“Mum, are you sure you want to talk to us like that after knowing your son wronged us?” Eric suddenly said with so much courage that got all of them on the fence.
His daring tone was such a thing to be shocked about. All these while he never talked back but stayed behind in the shadow of his wife, but today he spoke a tone of mockery in his voice."What are you talking about, and how dare you speak to me in that manner?' Rachel sneered.“Ooh yes, I will. I was framed by Micheal, yet you are siding with him?” Eric's eyes turned cold.Samantha was shocked. Her husband had turned into a new person. She had always hated him for staying quiet, but currently, she was seeing him in a different light.“You prick! Who framed you? Stop saying nonsense and leave this house!” Micheal snapped, trying to defend himself.“What proof do you have that Micheal framed you? Stop taking high as though you didn't steal those clothes. Since you couldn't afford anyone, you want to give my daughter stolen clothes?” Rachel snickered.“Your son is the thief, not me, and also I have proof!” Eric smirked and a wave of shock splashed on everyone, but they quickly washed it off thinking it was just a prank.Ignoring their change of expression, Eric easily pulled out his phone and played a video that Damien sent him. He clicked play and turned the phone to their faces.The video started playing on the loudspeaker, and they heard when Micheal was bribing the shop owner so he could frame Eric for stealing. They also saw when Micheal called the police after doing what he did.Shortly after the video stopped playing, the place turned dead silent. Micheal especially was sweating profusely, while Samantha was smiling. Meanwhile, Rachel was shocked. She knew if that video leaked, then Micheal would be in trouble.“What if I send this to the police? Do you know Micheal can be sentenced to life imprisonment?” Eric smiled.“You will do no such thing.” Rachel glared at him expecting him to shiver but he looked her deep in the eyes.“Mom, do something, please. I can't go to prison.” Micheal said with fear idling in his eyes.“Shut up and let me think,” Rachel yelled at him before reaching out her purse and bringing out some cash. She knew this trick always worked on him, so decided to use it.“Take this and delete that video.” She said and flung the money at him.Eric stood with a smile etched on his face as he watched both of them. "You think I want money? You don't think I could have gone to the police rather than coming here? You think you can buy me off with your money?" Eric said with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.Rachel became disgusted as he seemed to be enjoying the whole thing while she was pissed to the core. If she had the chance she could have jumped at him and clawed his face."You prick! How dare you talk to my mom like that?" Michael sneered but then Eric looked at him like he was some idiot."Are you sure I'm a prick?" Eric grinned as he looked at Micheal."You know this prick could send you to prison right?" He continued with a grin etched on his face"Also, the guys in prison would want someone like you. Your pretty face and virgin ass would give them a lot of pleasure. I'm sure you'll love it there." Eric let out a chortle as he said."How dare you?!" Micheal flew into a rage hearing what Eric said."Calm down pretty boy, save some strength for when you'll need it at prison with those men." Eric waved his hands as he said with a smile.“What do you want then?” Rachel suddenly spoke with bloodshot eyes."What do I want?" Eric raised his eyebrows as he looked at Rachel."If you don't know what I want, I might as well leak this video, and then we'll see what happens then." Eric shrugged."I beg you please, don't leak that video. Please, I don't want to go through all that." Micheal pleaded almost falling to his knees but Eric ignored him to face Rachel."You should have a better attitude," Eric sighed, shaking his head."Please brother-in-law don't do this." Michael cried, sweating profusely as he didn't want to go to prison."So I'm now your brother-in-law?" Eric chuckled as he said with amusement on his face."I...""Well, I wonder how you'll feel if you spend just a month over there. I'm sure you'll love it." Eric interrupted Micheal as he grinned.Rachel was dumbfounded and didn't know what to say. With the evidence Eric had, her son was going to jail."I'll be taking my leave now," Eric said, his voice turning cold as he turned around."Mother please help me beg him." Micheal cried as he looked at his mother."You should warn him, there'll be no next time. And if there's a next time, I'm afraid you won't get to see him in the next three years." Eric added with a hint of coldness in his eyes on tone before turning towards his wife.“Let's go!" He grabbed her arm and they left the house.As soon as he left, Rachel started venting her anger. “How dare he? Who does he think he is for making me apologize to him?” She was overwhelmed. She kept pacing around the room, cursing at him. She wouldn't let the anger go, never.“And I made sure to cover all traces. Did that shop owner sell me out?” Micheal was confused. He paid a lot of money just to get the shop owner to work with him.To get that proof, Eric must have bribed him, right? But then Michael laughed over the thought, as he knew in years to come, Eric would never get such an amount of money.“Next time you do something like this, you better not leave any traces that will lead back to you, or else you are in for it!” Rachel snapped at him.“Yes, mother. I will be careful next time.” Micheal replied quickly.Meanwhile, outside the villa, Eric and Samantha were walking alongside the road.“How did you manage to get that video?” Samantha said happily as she clung to his arm. She was so happy that he was able to get back at her mother and even make her apologize. It wasn't expected.“Remember my classmate I told you about? He happened to help me sort it out. I didn't expect him to, but I was glad he did.” Eric explained.“Then you should invite him over for dinner occasionally. I want to thank him.” She smiled.“Okay. But for now, you have to go home.” He said, but she raised a brow at him.“What about you?” She added.“I would like to take a walk. I'll come back soon, I promise.” He smiled. Though she was reluctant to let him go, he quickly hailed a cab and helped her get in.“Don't get into trouble, okay?” She asked while he gave her an assuring nod before the cab drove off.After watching her for a while, he quickly pulled out his phone and dialed Damien's Number.

Disdain etched on her face as she watched him.Ever since he married into the family, he had never supported it with any cent. His academic result was nothing but nonsense. He couldn't get even a cleaner job, so what's the use of staying married?“You can use the money to start up a new life far away from here. Ten million can change your worthless life into something worth living for, don't you think?” She asked sarcastically.“Mother, do I look like someone who could be bought with money? Or do you think I can be bought, similar to how the billionaire bought you off to come and bribe me?” Eric was pissed, but he hid it under a fake smile as he spat.“What the heck? Bought?

Thinking it was Eric, she quickly rushed towards the door and opened it.To her wildest surprise, who she saw wasn't him, but someone she never expected.“Micheal? What are you doing here?” She gasped in shock. “Did something happen to Eric?” she asked after noticing he was with so many men dressed in suits.But then there was one among them who stood out. He was standing just beside Micheal with a smile on his face. He had long curly hair that was tied into a bun. His appearance alone reels of riches.“No. Eric is fine. We are just here to see you.” Micheal smiled, but she gave him a stiff look. He had never visited ever since she married Eric, and now he was here to talk to her. For what?“Won't you let us in?

Michael stood there, looking quite shocked at how Eric spoke to them. He wondered where Eric suddenly got the voice and gut to talk to them in such a manner. “Are you deaf, or do you want me to speak it to you in a different language?” Eric asked as he gestured with his hands, pointing at his head. Michael heaved a sigh and nodded his head slowly while Edward who could not stand the embarrassment started to walk out of the room. “You better think this through, boy. There is no way you will get a better offer, you just have to take this one and have the assurance of living a better life.” Michael said, gesturing with his hands as he looked at Michael. Michael smirked as a thought struck his mind. If I want to buy your entire family, I will, and I will do it with just a phone call. Michael thought and he smirked. “Get out,” Eric repeated and Micheal had no choice but to go out of the room to meet with Edward, who was already waiting outside.

They stayed in that hug for a few moments, and Samantha pulled out of the hug, giving Eric another deep kiss on the lips. Eric closed his eyes as Samantha's lips struck his own and he kissed her deeply too. “I love you. It does not have to do with money or material things. I genuinely love you from the bottom of my heart. Don't think about what my family is saying. Look at you now, about to get a job. I hope everything goes well.” Samantha said in a convincing tone and Eric could not help but smile at his wife, thinking that his wife loved him so much despite that he did not have money. She smiled at him too, and all that she thought of was how her husband would finally get a job and put her family and others to shame.

I just want to know why you all are beating the young man.” Etic replied in a calm tone, and another woman came forward before the man could reply.“Who are you?

Don't give me all that bull shit. Did you keep any money with me?” Rachael snapped at Michael, and his face lit up in shock, as he did not expect his mother to yell at him in such a manner. “Mom!” Michael called out slowly as he struggled to believe he was not dreaming.“Son!” Rachael called back as she looked at Michael fiercely. Rachael stared at him for a moment, and Michael drifted back a bit to have a better look at his mother. He could still not believe his eyes or ears.“Mom! Are you serious right now this is not funny at all.” Michael said, his voice breaking as he spoke.“Are you surprised? Oh, yes, this is me telling you that I can no longer give you my money to fund

Their gaze fell on Samantha as she walked rapidly with a smile on her face as she walked towards Eric, who looked away from her as he wanted to act like he was angry at her. She chuckled lightly, and she sat on the couch beside him, heaving a sigh before she talked.“I am so sorry for getting you worried. When I just received the call from him, and he asked me to come over, I didn't know what to do. I had wanted to tell you, but he had instructed me not to tell you.” She explained and at this point, Lydia was already smiling.“You got us all worried. But I am glad that you are alright.” Lydia talked even before Eric could talk, and they both tilted their heads to look at her. Samantha smiled slightly before she inhaled deeply, clearing her throat to talk.“I honestly did not mean to put you all through such position. I apologize for that.” Samantha pleaded, and then there was a moment of silence before Eric cleared his throat slightly, tilting his head to see the expression on Samanth

“It's Emily.” Her voice echoed and Eric quickly drew his face into a puzzle as he looked at her before she picked up the call and placed it over her ear to talk to Emily. Eric looked away from her as different thoughts ran through his mind. Just then, he tilted his head back to look at Lydia, who was still talking to Emily over the phone.“Where are you now?” Lydia asked and then tilted her head to look at Eric, who was looking directly into her eyes for a moment before she brought the phone off her ear to place the call on the loudspeaker.“On my way out of my house, I met someone in front of my doorstep. He is not letting me leave the house. Have you arrived at Master Eric's house?” She talked rapidly, and Eric slowly took his gaze away as different thoughts ran through his mind. “What was she talking about?” He asked himself.“Yes. I got here not long ago. I thought that I was going to meet you here, but the reverse was the case. Who is that person that is holding you from reaching
Lydia and Emily coming to the mansion
“That's very true. But at least, I should have gotten a hint that she was going out. Even if she did not tell me that she was coming to your place. Do you know how worried I was?” Eric asked in a sharp tone as he heaved a heavy sigh of relief.“Well, sorry you had to go through all those worries. I am done actually with her, and she will be back to your pace very soon.” He said, and Eric inhaled deeply as he looked to expel his anger and talk in a calm tone. He stood up from the bed and just as he was about to talk, a knock came in on the door, and he turned around to walk to the door.“Okay. I will be waiting for her.” He heaved a sigh as he walked to the door to get the door. As he tilted the doorknob, his gaze fell on the maid who brought his food to him, and he opened the door widely for her to bring the food inside the room. “Thank you. Is this for me and my wife?” He could not help but ask as he looked at her in the eyes, and she looked away before she nodded her head slowly be

Eric woke up to the buzzing sound of his phone, and he opened his eyes slowly to check who was calling him. As he looked around for his phone, he noticed that Samantha was not in bed with him, and it made him draw a puzzled face as he wondered where she could be at that point in time. Not minding that his phone was ringing, he sat up slowly on the bed and rubbed his palm over his face as he thought deeply, about where she might be. A thought popped up in his mind and he tilted his head immediately to look at the bathroom, but there was no sign at all that she was there.“Samantha!” He yelled out and waited to see if he would get any response, but he did not get any. He gradually came off the bed, heaving a sigh as he tossed his phone on the bed before walking towards the bathroom to check.“Samantha!” He called lowly as he walked inside the bathroom and looked everywhere but could not find her. “Where is she?” He asked himself as he quickly walked out of the room and headed out to lo

“How did you know that?” Samantha asked with a frown on her face, but Eric kept tapping her gently to maintain calmness so that Rachael could go on with what she was saying.“Someone told me about it. I would not say the name of the person for some reason.” She raised her head to look at her daughter and then at Eric for a moment before she inhaled deeply to talk.“I know, you probably don't ever want to have anything to do with me, but I just want you to let me clear my mind and make things right.” “There is nothing to make a right, mom. You already made your mark and you stood by it.” Samantha chipped in immediately, tilting her head to look at her husband for a moment before she exhaled deeply.“Sam, I told you to calm down. Just let her finish what she has to say.” Eric tilted his head back to look at Rachael before he talked to her.“You can go on.” Eric's voice echoed, and Rachael made a sign to thank him. She inhaled deeply before she continued to talk.“As I was saying, I kno

Samantha brought the phone off her ear quickly to end the call. Her heart began to beat erratically as she did not know what was going on with her mother. She took in several deep breaths to calm her racing heart, but it only got was. She constantly checked her phone to see if her mother had sent the address to her, but she had not sent it. Eric noticed how perturbed she was, and then he moved closer to her to talk to her.“You should be calm. She is going to be alright.” He said in a low tone, and she immediately tilted her head to look at Eric who had a pale look on his face.“She still had not sent her address. I don't think there is anyone with her right now.” She could not but talk back at him, looking away immediately after she finished talking.“I know. But I want you to be calm. You should not harm yourself before she sends her address….” Just as he was trying to talk to her, her phone suddenly chimed, and she quickly brought it to look at what came in. She noticed that Rachae
Sick for a while
The dinner ended faster than they all thought, and they walked back to the sitting room. Lydia and Harvey sat by themselves, and so did Emily and Damien. Eric and Samantha also took their seat on the same side of the chair.“Now to the next part of the night's activities,” Eric said in a low tone, and they all tilted their heads to look at him as he looked at Samantha for a moment and thought of what next to say. He then tilted his head back to look at them before he talked.“We wanted to play some couple's game. So since there are three couples now, it's the best.” Eric said slowly as his eyes darted between Lydia and Emily. They looked at themselves, and then Emily cleared her throat to talk.“What games are we playing?” She asked, and they all looked at her for a moment before Samantha talked.“The one that couples play. Good thing you have a partner.” “But, I thought we all agreed that it was just to eat dinner. When did we say we were going to play some games?” Emily spoke in su

It was finally dinner time, Eric and Samantha were in the room, talking about how their day went and what they were going to do at the dinner.“Perhaps after, eating we will play a couple of games and then have fun. What do you think?” Eric looked away as he thought about what Samantha had just said. He thought for a while before he inhaled deeply, bringing his gaze back to look at her.“That's a nice idea. Since we are going to be out of town for the next couple of months. It's only right if we do some of those games and have fun.” Eric explained slowly as if he were counting his words as he spoke them. Not long after, they heard the sound of a car, driving into the mansion.“They are here!” Eric said rapidly, and she nodded her head slightly as she walked behind him towards the door. They arrived in the dining room and just then, the food was getting ready. The door suddenly opened, and Lydia was the first person to enter the room alongside a strange man. Eric's eyebrow furrowed as
Bring a partner to the dinner
The meeting finally came to a close after much rancor and disagreements. Eric inhaled deeply as he watched his last auntie leave the room. “Why were they pissed that I was announced as the head of the family?” He thought for a moment before he exhaled rapidly, tilting his head to look at his grandfather, who also seemed to be lost in thought.“Why are they all angry?” He asked in a low tone, jolting Sir Chadwick from his reverie as he tilted his head to look at Eric before he inhaled deeply to talk.“Pay no attention to them. You are now the head of the family. You can choose to do whatever you want to do with them.” Sir Chadwick grunted lightly as he stood up from the chair and walked slowly away from the sitting room but halted his steps, turning around to look at Eric as if he remembered to say something.“You can find your back to the mansion. I will be leaving for France tomorrow. My vacation has started and I don't want any disturbance. Take good care of yourself and of course,
